    Excellent food, super supportive staff and the old colonial vibe of the place brings many joys. The place is great to go have a family dinner or to have a drink with your friends.

    This is an old house converted into a restaurant. The place was beautiful and had a great vibe. The food was delicious and the staff was courteous and friendly. The prices were reasonable and the portion size was satisfactory. We had lunch in a private area. It was possible to close the door and make the area completely private. Hence it's a great place to have a chat with friends. Our favourite dishes were, prawn toast and sea food fried rice.

    THE BEST restaurant in Dehiwala town with delicious food and fantastic staff. Very reasonable pricing. The VIP dining area can be booked if you visit with your family or friends. Lovely place !

    Foods 5/5👍 Service 4/5👍 Parking available for about 4 vehicles infront of the restaurant 3/5👍. Although there's a private dining space, other customers tend to visit the private space as the wash room access is channeled through the private dining space, which is bit uncomfortable 1/5👍. Restaurant administration should focus on a separate convenient access for wash room, for all customers. Hotel service is very friendly & attentive. Food serving time acceptable. Recommended

    A good place for small gatherings. You have the option to select indoor or outdoor seating areas. Very close to Dehiwala junction. Food was tasty 👍 and the service was good. Parking could be a small issue though. Highly recommended ⭐

    If you want to try Chinese food for an okay price, this is the right place. Visited on a new year day, so they served with less people, so it took more than an hour to serve the food. The portion of rice and noodles range are enough for 2 - 3 people and taste is 5 🌟. Sizzling range is less but it was okay. Their noodles were sooo soggy, so we couldn't complete it.

    Ordered dinner for a small gathering at home. Food was great and portions were more than adequate. The Thai-style fish fillet was delicious and needs a special mention. 👌

  • 2/5 duleep d. 2 years ago on Google
    I visited this restuarant on 1st of Jan with a reservation. The service was terrible. They promised to serve the food in 20mins but took over an hour to do so. On top of that the ordered dishes were not prepared. May be they were short staffed on the 1st but then they should have informed us. We were given a private room outside and they were serving the guests inside. I was with a foreign visitor and it was embarrassing. But the food was good. I have attached a photo of the receipt. They claimed that they have given a discount for the inconvenience caused. But the full amount has been charged. I was taken on a royal ride....

    Good place. No corkage for bottles, ac and outdoor both available, food is good and prices are moderate.

  • 2/5 ESHAN F. 2 years ago on Google
    The portions are very disappointing for the prices they charge. I ordered pork , Cuttlefish and prawns averaging 1000 plus rupees and received a portion less than 200g enough for max 2 or 1 adult. The food however taste good hence the 2 stars. I cant recommend them because of their inconsistencies in portions sadly. There are many Chinese restaurants out there thats value for money.
