    Calming ambience by the Browns beach Negombo with both indoor and outdoor seating area having direct access to the beach. It has a very live and romantic vibe in the evenings. Even your pets are allowed here. Their cocktails are good. Food is average quality for the price. They have a nice and attentive staff and renders a good service for the customers. Overall it s a fine place to chill out by the beach

    Cool atmosphere with lights, live music, optional to sit on beach, good selection of menu. Geeth was our waiter and was super attentive and hospitable. With the live music there’s also a dance floor and some people dance.

    For their service I would like to give 0 stars. Importance are given to foreigners. We have waited around 30 to 40 mins to place the order. I highly not recommend this place.

    It’s a calm location alongside the beach with live music and cool atmosphere. Food menu has different varieties including both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. Size of the portion which we order serves enough for an average person. Prices are reasonable and worth. Had a friendly customer service experience. Only problem we found there was unavailability of vehicle parking. Overall it’s a good place to have a night vibe.

    Worst place of all our trip. We ordered some food, it arrived 30 min later. My club sandwich was cold and the kitchen could not warm it up (??). My friend ordered a beef burger with no ketchup and they brought a fried chicken burger with ketchup. We told the waiter this was not beef and he kept saying yes it was. We did not let go so he said we could cancel the meal (why not tell us the beef is out instead?). The club sandwich was average, drinks very small for their price and service really bad. Do yourself a favor and don't go there

    We ordered the sea food bucket with no oysters but in the end we got the bucket with the oysters. The seafood wasn't cooked well and there was no cleanliness in the meat. Not worth the price. I do not recommend the sea food bucket but other portions are good.

    Great restaurant and pub. Food portions are not that large but its reasonable if you are going for a drink. Hard liqueur and beer is available. Very mind relaxing place. You have to park your vehicle on the road though.

    I had a wonderful time at Serendib. The atmosphere, service, and overall food quality were outstanding. However, I must note that the portion sizes could be more generous. Despite this, I would still recommend it for a delightful dining experience.

  • 2/5 Robert W. 8 months ago on Google
    Waiters are very attentive.. unfortunately the food quality is poor. Tuna steak is cooked in old oil and served without any taste just with tons of garlic. French fries were bad and just fatty. Waiters were afterwards insisting very much in tips..

  • 4/5 Sadhbh D. 8 months ago on Google
    This was exactly what we were looking for after a long journey. The restaurant is right by the beach and we enjoyed a cold lion beer and some food while watching the sunset. Our waiter was a true gentleman and extremely kind. A great first night in Sri Lanka!

  • 4/5 Chathurya M. 1 year ago on Google
    Had a different dining experience here. We bought a four seasoning pizza. Ham pizza is the most delicious.

  • 4/5 Taniya P. 5 years ago on Google
    Great restaurant and pub. This is a restaurant with a pub and a restaurant feel. Has both indoor and outdoor seating . Food is very tasty . The Seafood platter is the signature dish adequate for 2 people (3,850/=). Has many other dishes such as cuttlefish , chicken cordenblu etc. Veru good service and ample space. Can walk to the beach . Average food cost per person 2,500/=

  • 5/5 anatolie c. 1 year ago on Google
    A place where young and elderly can enjoy. The views of the ocean are amazing plus the beach is clean. Also the food is the cherry on the cake which outstands this restaurant from others. Thank you will come again for sure. Ps the service is very pleasant and waiters are very polite and helpful, a little tip will make their life happier πŸ˜™

  • 5/5 Petra P. 4 years ago on Google
    We ordered a seafood platter and I have to say that it was really, really delicious! Moreover staff is nice and polite. I would come again.

  • 5/5 Sanjeev C. 2 years ago on Google
    Best seafood restaurant in Negombo. The price is very reasonable and the quantity is also very sufficient. Their Chilli Seafood platter costs just 4300 LKR and they offer more than sufficient quantity for 3 people. It had 4 small sized lobsters, 2 full mud crabs, a big fillet of deer fish, 250g of cuttlefish and 6 pieces of tiger prawns. Their hot buttered cuttlefish is also great. Overall quality and quantity of food is very justifying for the price they quote.

  • 4/5 Vasilis X. 2 years ago on Google
    My family and I visited Serendib in Negombo on our holidays in Sri Lanka. We asked a tuk-tuk driver to bring us to a good restaurant. And that’s what it is.....a really good restaurant. Friendly and helpful staff, very tasty and beautifully presented seafood, calm ambience with straight access to the beach which my little son loved so much. After we left, we realized that we forgot there one of my son’s toy cars but no time to go back for it as we had in schedule to visit another place inside country. We came back to Negombo after one week and to Serendib for lunch. To our surprise and my son’s mostly, we saw that they had found his toy, kept it all these days and gave it back to him. He was sooo happy! At that time they were setting a beautiful Christmas tree and a waiter gave to my son a big red ball from that tree and made him even more happy....and us as well! Those people know how to treat their customers so they will have them coming back again and again......A very nice place....Thank you Serendib

    Very Nice vegetable tempura and brilliant devilled shrimps. Tourists beware of the spice ;-)

  • 5/5 Marina C. 2 years ago on Google
    Cocktails are good. Prices are normal 1000-1200 rupee per glass. Staff was kind and friendly. The best part of it is the sea garde, you can sit almost on the beach. Must be a great sunset watching spot. The only problem with the open air part is that there's a sewage pipe near, to the left side. Be prepared for some mosquitos in the evening.

  • 3/5 Haitham A. 2 years ago on Google
    Good live music (English and srilankan), and good prices, but the problem with the staff. They lazy and busy with talking to customers, and they usually forget to bring what you asked them.
