The Mangalorean Catholic Cuisine is the cuisine of the Mangalorean Catholic community.

Mangalorean Catholics are Roman Catholics from Mangalore and the rest of the historic South Canara area by the southwestern coast of Carnataca, India. Most Mangalorean Catholics share ancestry with present-day Goan Catholics, they had migrated to South Canara from Portuguese Goa between 1560 and 1763 following their Christianisation in Goa. The migration continued during the Portuguese Inquisition in Goa and Bombay-Bassein and the Mahratta Invasion of Goa and Bombay. The culture of Mangalorean Catholics is a blend of Mangalorean and Goan cultures. After migration, they adopted some aspects the local Mangalorean culture but retained many elements of their Konkani ways of life.
