    Authentic, delicious cooking with fair prices. Twice I went. First time, their menu. Second time, I delivered fresh fish from the market and waited only 30 minutes for an extraordinary curry meal with tailored lower spiciness, which was my best meal in Sri Lanka over three weeks. Small, fair fee charged for making it happen. Tell your driver.

    The food was so delicious we went twice on the same day for lunch and dinner. We had the rice and curry with fish for lunch and a couple of devilled dishes and nasi goreng for dinner. Highly recommended!

    I spent every afternoon having lunch at this beautiful restaurant. The food is impeccable and the family running the place are the sweetest. Tried nearly everything on the menu and could not have found a spot better than this. Quiet, peaceful and right by the sea. Very budget friendly and the food is just brilliant. I’d make a trip back to Sri Lanka just for their food. Do not let the simplicity question your judgement. Beautiful food by beautiful people. Lots of love.

    Easily one of the best meals I have had. I even ran restaurants for 11 years in England. Been in Sri Lanka 2 weeks and seen the whole island - this was the best meal by far. Price is excellent too, and food is authentic, delicious and clean - all natural and pure ingredients. Try the Kottu and talk to the chef. He will tailor your food to what you like. I can’t wait to go back!

    It was first place on Sri Lanka where we have eaten and it was so great! Food is fresh and not overpriced like in the center of Galle. The host is so nice, talking with us a lot about the food they make and about what can we see in town. We gonna came back there soon! :)

    We ordered a soup, a seafood rice and a fried rice. The 3 meals were very delicious and reasonably priced. This restaurant is located in Ginthota area of Galle Road, Colombo and is visited by both local and foreign parties... A woman prepares the food and most of the staff are women. The service is very good. ❤️

    This place has an amazing quality/price food but mostly important the food is really amazing. I spent one week in Sri Lanka and everyday I just taste everything in the menu. It’s a place run by family and all the locals usually eats here so join them because they know what they do.

    As part of our reconnaissance of Sri Lanka for Australian Cricket Tours upcoming cricket tour of this magnificent country, we happened across this cracking establishment. Great Sri Lankan food, full of flavour, as hot and spicy as you like it or not. Up to you. Great food with great service, extremely well priced. We’ll be back again.

    Very tasty rice and noodles. Pretty cheap and fast. You can order spicy and not space if you’re a tourist, like me :)

    The best food that we had on our trip. We ate here 2 nights in a row as we were staying at the radiation hotel. We wanted something a bit authentic and this didn’t disappoint. If you are there 2 nights make sure you order a whole curried fish for the 2nd night. It was incredible. The restaurant is a bit rustic and no air con/fan as it’s right on the road but this doesn’t matter. It is all so good and the staff are all so friendly

    Very nice seafood fried rice! The lady cooks very well :) (Guess it has fried with shrimp paste!) Great to enjoy the local food with very reasonable price! You can even order a half portion of the dish so that you wouldn’t be too full or waste any food❤️

👍 The place is in galleface fort overlooking the ocean. If you like to enjoy the sea breeze while having your meals I would say that this is a great place to be. Gets easily crowded and therefore would recommend to go at a odd time than the usual lunch dinner times. Reasonably good food but personally...
