Great people, fantastic atmosphere, fabulous food. What else You need? Spent there almost every evening through two weeks of our vacation. Unforgettable memories. We met there, most professional, polite, friendly and great personality waiter ever. You cannot find such a people in Europe... Your boss have to appreciate that, go for a rise 😁 Really! Thank You All the best! Iwona&Michal

(Translated by Google) They know how to choose on the market and cook the freshest and tastiest fish, lobster shrimp (here called Lobster). The second floor veranda is modest but comfortable. For a long dinner in a large company, they will pick up fish with you in the market in advance and cook it wonderfully. Sauces and side dishes with salad will complement the pleasure. Some sometimes complain about the delay, it happens, but after all, fish and shrimp are often processed and peeled before cooking. For dessert with tea, there are amazingly delicious fried bananas. If you are staying for a long time (more than a week), arrange different dinners. Try the Blue Marlin, Barracuda, Cuttlefish, Shrimp, River Crabs, Seabass, it's WILD here !!!! And delicious. I recommend. In the photo Coral Fish with chrysanthemum onion. If you bought breakfasts at the hotel, I recommend to go here for lunch and eat chicken curry. The brother of our guide to Sri Lanka Vassante works in this restaurant. We've known him for eight years. We come to different hotels almost every year. As elsewhere, you can buy excursions in Galle from him. To the waterfalls. On a tour of the lake. Elephant paradise The mountains. To the botanical garden. Compare prices and be sure to find out all the details. If you want to buy wine or stronger, then Vassante will provide the purchase. You will be sold at the store for much more. Exchange for rupees is also best done through it. Even banks may not be enough. Now is the time to choose your next vacation. My friends came after us and were grateful to Vassanta for bringing wonderful fruits, although they lived far from Bentota. So I want to come again! (Original) Умеют выбрать на рынке и приготовить самую свежую и вкусную рыбу, креветок лангустов (здесь называют Лобстер). Веранда второго этажа скромная, но удобная. Для долгого ужина в большой компании заранее подберут с Вами рыбу на рынке и чудесно приготовят. Соусы и гарниры с салатом дополнят удовольствие. Некоторые иногда сетуют на задержку, это бывает, но ведь рыбу и креветок часто перед готовкой обрабатывают, чистят. На десерт к чаю есть удивительно вкусные жареные бананы. Если Вы приехали надолго (больше недели) договоритесь об разных ужинах. Попробуйте Голубого Марлина, барракуду, каракатиц, креветок, речных крабов, Сибаса он здесь ДИКИЙ!!!! И очень вкусный. рекомендую. На фото Корал Фиш с луком хризантема. Если Вы в отеле купили завтраки- рекомендую в обед сходить сюда и покушать куриное кари. В этом ресторане работает брат нашего гида по Шри-Ланке Вассантэ. Мы его знаем уже восемь лет. Приезжаем в разные отели почти каждый год. Как везде, у него можете купить экскурсии в Галле. На водопады. На экскурсию по озеру. В слонячий рай. Горы. В ботанический сад. Сравните цены и обязательно выясните все подробности. Если вам захочется купить вино или покрепче то Вассантэ обеспечит приобретение. Вам в магазине продадут гораздо дороже. Обмен на рупии тоже лучше делать через него. Даже в банках могут недодать. Сейчас есть время выбрать следующий отдых. Мои знакомые приехали после нас и были благодарны Вассанте за привоз чудесных фруктов, хотя жили далеко от Бентоты. Так хочется приехать снова!

Awesome place for fresh seafood, hygienic and great service. We ordered a huge lobster 🦞 catch of the day, grilled fish & tiger prawns 🦐 Yummilicious for seafood lovers. Discovered the quaint lil restaurant through our tuk-tuk driver, who took us there. We had a really different kind of Christmas lunch this year, must try !

Prawn Curry & Rice Curry & Rice, the National Dish of Sri Lanka is eaten for almost any meal of the day and incorporates a variety of ingredients from seafood and eggs to meats & vegetables etc. However, the basic coconut milk curry with robust spices remains similar no matter which one you get. The curry pairs perfectly with the slightly nutty & sweet steamed rice bringing in lots of flavours ranging from spicy, sourish, sweet & creamy together in every bite. It's somewhat of a marriage between Thai & South Indian Curries. The coconut milk and the varied tastes are very Thai, but the spices and curry leaves are very South Indian. An extremely distinct feature of the Sri Lankan Rice & Curry meal is the side dish called Sambol. I've tasted Sambol made of Shallots, Fish, Vegetables etc., and then each would have more versions either spicier or sweeter than a normal one. Sambol means a condiment to go with the main meal and these further enhance the flavours of Rice & Curry. It's just incredible how flavourful the Rice & Curry in Sri Lanka is, mix in the Sambol & sometimes the stir fry dishes served along and every bite will have a distinct flavour from the previous one. It is one of the most indulgent meals for the palate and should you find yourself in Sri Lanka, I would recommend trying Rice & Curry on more than a few occasions!!

Totally recommended👌. Delicious food, from curries to jumbo prawns🦐. I’ve been two times in Bantota, for 2 weeks in a total and I’s been my best place. Not only because of the food but also the friendly and profesional stuff. Oh and cause of delicious starters😅 you’ll see when you go there🥰🌟.

After having a drink here in the afternoon and seeing the reviews, we decided to have dinner here. Big mistake. My husband enquired about the Lobster and a price of 8,000 rupees was agreed, then the waiter came back and said he'd made a mistake, it was 16,000 rupees?? I ordered the prawn and noodles, but was served chicken fried rice. I eventually had the prawn and noodles, but wish I had stuck with the rice. I have been having stomach cramps and hope to god that this doesn't lead to something.

The food is perfect! Warm hospitality! Nice place for those who is looking for fresh seafood! Lagoon prawns are amazing!!!

Great garlic-buttered fish. And live guitar music!! Wow, how incredib this place is. (Even not on the menu,) the team of this family owned restaurant was able to serve me fresh coconut and freshly pressed orange juice. And Tharu is a very friendly waiter. (<— @Boss, consider this at next salary discussion. ;) )

Amazing place: really authentic, with magnificent food and perfect service! 😸 PS. Come here during the morning-day time as evening seating is fully booked 👌

Try the self-created cocktail served from the sympathetic waiter made with ginger chili and coconut. Very delicious and nice place to have drinks and food!

(Translated by Google) Gorgeous place, always fresh seafood, the owner opens the refrigerator and show that there are, tasty cooked for the entire rest dined here several times and did not regret it. Average price tag for Bentota. (Original) Шикарное место, всегда свежие морепродукты, хозяин откроет холодильник и покажет, что есть, вкусно готовят, за весь отдых ужинали тут несколько раз и ничуть не пожалели. Ценник средний для Бентоты.

Went there for lunch as it had the most reviews with positive words. Located across the railway track and this requires one to be careful while crossing this line. The restaurant was the only one which was live and looking busy during the daytime along the road which houses a couple of more restaurants. Had a couple of beers, local fish and rice and chicken devilled rice. Don’t know why it’s called devilled and what really is the meaning of devilled but I guess devilled means fried or grilled. Not sure if it was “devilled” or something else that looked like devilled in the menu. Service is generally good and staff are welcoming, though in my case I guess he missed one order but later apologised and got it quickly. Overall a 3 star in my view and 3 stars I generally give to genuinely good food.

Decent seafood. Prawn with garlic was good. Good view with railway track and good English speaking staff. Mango juice was authentic.

We had lunch at this place. Food is really nice. and Tharindu who served us helps a lot with how to eat crabs. Great place.

We had grilled jumbo prawns, prawn curry grilled fish, grilled tuna steak. Everything was super tasty, we absolutely loved the curry and the prawns. The service was excellent and friendly, would totally recommend! Price was decent compared to what we saw around.

We had dinner in this cozy and nicely decorated restaurant by the tracks. The staff and owner are very welcoming and friendly. The menu offers a wide variety of dishes. Our food was both colorful and full of flavor. Highly recommended !

Very tasty - highly recommended! The waiter and the owner are very friendly and the food was very tasty. We also got a small snack for our ice cold beer :) We will come again :)

Best fried rice and curry ever! And the banana fritters were so yummy! The waiter was really nice and extremely friendly. Beyond the food, there was a live music (mostly the Beatles). It was one of the best night experiences in Sri Lanka. Please come and support them!!! Lovely people

A very polite family. They showed us the fresh fish and sea food they had and we decided what we were going to eat. With starters and fruit.

(Translated by Google) Tasty, not expensive, Russian-language menu and staff! Big shrimp)) (Original) Вкусно, не дорого , русскоязычное меню и персонал! Большие креветки))

(Translated by Google) Very nice place, tasty and inexpensive. We ate here for 3 days. On the second day, they brought with them fish, shrimp and squid. Cooked very tasty.

A little gem near our hotel. Nice seafood and view of the railway tracks. And the owner is very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend it.

Really nice place! Friendly and pleasant staff and really tasty food. Big prawns cost 2500 rs (with salad and french fries or rice). Also they give you some sort of fried pastry (tastes like chips) as a compliment and a fried bread with garlic butter as well. They do have beer - but not mentioned in the menu. In general it is really nice place even considering passing by trains))))) and prices are much cheaper than in hotels or big restoraunts (like aida nearby for example).

(Translated by Google) Very cozy cafe. The staff works with a soul. Girl waitress is cute and smiling. The price tag is average. Free roti cakes with butter and garlic and dal curry.

(Translated by Google) Great family restaurant with fresh seafood at a good price. The most delicious and big shrimp ate here! The price of 2500-3000 rupees for 8 pcs. You can pay by card. The location is right by the railway, as are many restaurants on the coast, so passing trains did not scare. (Original) Отличный семейный ресторанчик со свежими морепродуктами по хорошей цене. Самые вкусные и большие креветки ели тут! Цена 2500-3000 рупий за 8 шт. Можно расчитаться картой. Расположение прям у жд, как и много ресторанов на побережье, поэтому проезжающие поезда не пугали.

Very nice place, close to the beach - just 50 meters across the railway. The food is really good. A bit pricy, but generous portions. We took 8 gigantic prawns for only 2500rps. Also they cooked a wild dorado, which was delicious. All the seafood is fresh, you can choose it from variety of crabs, lobsters, fish and prawns which they have in a big box with ice. They also serve beer in cold glasses, which is great after a hot day at the beach.

Owner is really friendly and accommodating. I ordered the calamari with fries and he allowed me to have it cooked 2 ways - grilled and battered. Extremely generous portion as well. Great dinner here. Recommended!!

Very good food and a very friendly and serviceminded waiter. He was smiling everytime he visited our table and kept our glass constantly full. Very happy with the experience.

Food is delicious! We ordered the seafood platter and got a good size fish, calamari, lobster, crab, prawns, comes with fries and salad! The fries were a little on salty side, but the main thing is the seafood - cooked with yummy flavours! We came a little late in the evening and on a stormy day, so it was a little quiet. The owner and staff are very friendly here. The owner even offered to drop us off at our hotel (only 400m) as it was pouring with rain when we left!

This is very nice place to chill out and enjoy gorgeous food. The prices is friendly pocket.

Excellent sea food, as well as their curry rice and cheese pasta. Good location and friendly people.

Easygoing seafood restaurant... With good food... Relaxing, friendly and also a little bit funny atmosphere...

(Translated by Google) Very good restaurant and very friendly conditions. (Original) Sehr gutes Restaurant und sehr freundliche Bedingungen.

Lovely staff and nice interior, we didn’t like their shisha, very poor taste of tobacco, but overall experience was good

Not bad place. However beware that pineapple fritters desert is just one circle slice of pineapple :) Positive side is that owner brought extra ice-cream as bonus. Without it the desert would be nothing.

Very nice family owned restaurant. They really know how to prepare good seafood. The service is friendly, and accommodating.

It's really amazing place with the best dishes! Delicious fish and tomato soup. Owner is nice, helpfull ☺️ Od you are in Bentota, You musy visit that place!

Good service, friendly nature and delicious fresh food. Should definitely try it.

Fresh and delicious seafood, especially recommend red snapper fish! And serwis is also super nice and welcome. Fried banana is great as well. Special thanks for the owner👍

Amazing food, especially grilled fish! Really nice and helpful staff. We were there 3 times :) 100% recommendation

Unfortunately I found this cafe at the end of my vacation. The food is really very tasty, SUCH large prawns captured my heart 💔 The staff is very intelligent and friendly! The main thing - the food is ready within 5-7 min, if you are hungry, don’t worry, they will never let you die 😅 only from pleasure of eating👍🏻

Cozy place with great food! They served us fresh seafood including the biggest and most tasty tiger prawns we ever had! Especially our waiter Nimsara did an amazing job, which we will never forget. We wish him and rest of the staff all the best!

I ordered a local dish and a fruit cocktail, everything was very tasty. I liked the service, the prices for some dishes are slightly lower than in neighboring cafes, I’ll come here again. I recommend visiting.
