    Average Experience. Food was ok. Fruit juice needs to be improved. Ordered a Tiger prawns 🦐 plate(which comes with about 10 prawns , bit of Salad n Bit of steamed rice). 1200 LKR which I felt bit too expensive. Lime juice and Avacado juice ~250 LKR. Place was nice with a good view. Service was good. The lady at our service was curtious. Music was playing in the background. Parking is not available. No Accessible ramps.

    Nice place close to the beach with pretty good sunbeds in front of the ocean. Tasty sea food and local dishes. Possible to order non-spicy European dish for a child. Prices are medium, taking into account the location. One more reason for coming back each day is its friendly hostess.

    Restaurant with very poor and slow service. Prices are very competitive compere to other restaurants on the beach, but you get what you pay for. Fish from daily catch was overfried (waste of a very good fresh fish), on the other hand I could really recommend daily catch prawns for only 1300LKR for 10 pcs. With rice and salad, which werw really well prepared.

    Ordered the seafood platter (4500lrk +10% service tax) All the crustaceans (shrimp, crab, etc) were quite tasteless - felt that they were just boiled and salted, no other spices. The salad tasted like vinegar (probably to keep it fresh before serving). The view and overall environment was enjoyable, perfect for couples. Also - the fish was cooked well. So if you eant to dine there, I would suggest you to get fish instead of any crabs/shrips, etc.

    It’s the one of my favorite restaurant in Sri Lanka, it’s awesome sit on the beach and have the dinner. This restaurant provides fresh and tasty seafood, and the price is reasonable. I love the sunset when the moment I sit the beach table and waiting my dinner, it’s absolutely unforgettable. If you love seafood, it’s the restaurant you cannot miss it in Mirissa.

    AVOID ! Came here for seafood, based on DK Eyewitness Travel Guide - Sri Lanka. Total dissapointment - no parking; very worn out location; seafood platter - old ingredients, tasteless, only the fish was decent; seafood starter salad - bad also; Mango lassi - not good either; calamari soup - decent; kind service; steep prices; at least the beach is nice;

  • 5/5 DiurnoInfetto I. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The staff is really smart, courteous and friendly. We ate both lunch and dinner and I must say that in both cases we were pleasantly satisfied. At lunch we had a seafood salad and a delicious chicken sandwich while at dinner we had a mixed grilled fish dish which is good for 2 people. The fish is very fresh and cooked very well. Good value for money and you can also pay with a credit card. Highly recommended !!! (Original) Il personale è davvero in gamba, cortese e simpatico. Abbiamo mangiato sia a pranzo che a cena e devo dire che in entrambi i casi siamo rimasti piacevolmente soddisfatti. A pranzo abbiamo preso un'insalata di frutti di mare e un sandwich di pollo buonissimo mentre a cena il piatto di pesce misto alla griglia che va bene per 2 persone. Il pesce è freschissimo e cucinato molto bene. Buon rapporto qualità prezzo e si può pagare anche con la carta di credito. Consigliatissimo!!!

    (Translated by Google) I ate there one night I priced shrimp which was good and fresh but when I finished my plate I was still hungry. It was not at all well served so for 1300 Rupee frankly blah! (Original) J’ai manger là bas un soir j’ai prix des crevettes qui était bonne et fraîche mais quand j’ai fini mon assiette j’avais encore faim. Ce n’était pas du tout bien servie donc pour 1300 Roupie franchement bof !

  • 1/5 John S. 4 years ago on Google
    in the new year did not cope with the service. After ordering, the cocktails were brought to us in 1.5 hours. I ordered two, brought one, in the bill they wanted money for 2 cocktails. Insolent deception of the client. 3 hours before the new year, they already brought an invoice for payment and said the kitchen no longer cooks food. Forced to pay 10% for the service, which was not at all. I do not recommend this restaurant to anyone, terrible service !!! Visit better neighboring places, I personally will not go to them anymore!

  • 5/5 Daria D. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The prices are affordable, beer 250 rupees in a can, tiger prawns with potatoes and salad 1200 rupees. Delicious salad with pineapple, tomatoes, cabbage and carrots, a good dressing. Fries in fresh butter. We would be back :) (Original) Цены демократичные, пиво 250 рупий в жестяной банке, тигровые креветки с картошкой и салатом 1200 рупий. Вкусный салат с ананасом, помидорами, капустой и морковкой, хорошая заправка. Фри на свежем масле. Мы бы вернулись :)

  • 5/5 Corinna C. 6 months ago on Google
    We've had the red snapper and it was very fresh and delicious! It came with a sauce (that wasn't mentioned on the menu), but it tasted really good and the French fries were the best ones we had in all of Sri Lanka!

  • 5/5 Andrew 4 months ago on Google
    We came to the beach bar every day on our three day stay in Mirissa. Great service from the team and the location on Mirissa Beach is excellent. Come during happy hour (4-10 I think) for 700rps Lion bottles and 800rps cocktails!

  • 1/5 Constanze W. 2 years ago on Google
    Directly sea front. Typical tourist catch. Great fish on display. The food served is anything but. Tasteless and overcooked. Service also definitely improvabke.I think I have never given such a low rating before.

  • 2/5 Дарья �. 1 year ago on Google
    Just a normal place. Prawns, fish and calamaries were fine, but not really tasty. The stuff is attentive. But I strongly recommend avoid the owner. The man is too annoying. Anyway the best gin-tonic at the beach.

  • 4/5 lucia m. 1 year ago on Google
    We came here for some drinks in the evening. They do happy hour, half price on cocktails from 5pm to 10pm.

  • 4/5 Dipa B. 1 year ago on Google
    Deducting 1 star because this place is extremely expensive as compared to other restaurants, but given that it’s right in front of the beach I guess that’s worth it. The staff is the sweetest, they are very kind, friendly & patient. The menu has so many things & I tried both local & continental foods, all were delicious. Beverages are good too.

  • 1/5 Abishek G. 1 year ago on Google
    Poor food and lackadaisical service. Quality of local sri lankan food is bearable but anything else is barely edible. Prices also very expensive (slightly more than even Marriott in the area). We ordered tomato (red sauce) pasta and double-triple checked when ordering. However, we got a white sauce pasta. When we pointed this out, they took it back and mixed ketchup in it and brought it back. It was totally inedible!! Best to avoid this place, there are multiple better options around.

  • 5/5 Chris B. 1 year ago on Google
    It's a really really nice place to chill and relaxe close to the beach. The service was good, the owner is really really friendly. We would com here again and again 🙂✌️

  • 5/5 Chee Peng P. 4 months ago on Google
    Restaurant is by the sea. The food was surprising good! We had lunch and came back again for dinner. Tried the lobster, sweet and fresh. Highly recommended.

  • 5/5 Максим �. 1 year ago on Google
    This is the best place at the mirissa beach where I tried curry and grilled seafood , especially I recommend grilled barracuda and if you try it you will come again!!)

  • 4/5 Lenoi B. 6 months ago on Google
    We ate few times at this restaurant on the beach with friends. We liked here local food curry with chicken is very good, sweet&sour calamari or chicken is great. Soups with prawns/ calamari good. We didn't like tuna steak, it is well done even when we asked for medium/red inside. The stuff is nice and they try to do their best. They tried to do their best, and cooked us new steaks, but it came cold. Order local and enjoy!

  • 5/5 Vladislav B. 4 months ago on Google
    A nice place, very tasty fish: well prepared and served. We had a white snapper and two coctails, all together for 5060 rs. I'd say more affordable than in other places on the beach. We enjoyed our dinner, thank you ♥️

    Fish were fried. Staff no good. For it value Zephire restaurant is better.

  • 1/5 Christelle E. 4 years ago on Google
    The worst place you could ever go. The “restaurant” had one customer besides us and we waited for our food for 45 minutes. When it arrived, it was cold. We sent our food back, it took about 3 minutes and the waitress came back with probably the same burgers (that she had previously touched when we said they were cold). Probably they were heated again in a microwave. Burgers cost the same price as are the prices in great burger cafes that actually offer you a good burger. These burgers were made of processed cheese and some processed cutlet (that should have actually been a chicken). Also tables are dirty and when they give you a knife and a fork, they just put them on a dirty table. Don’t recommend.

    (Translated by Google) They ordered a mini plateau of seafood, brought raw tuna inside. I do not recommend it to anyone. Were in this "restaurant" for the first and last time.

    (Translated by Google) A solid deuce !!! The only star for how the waiters call, you think it's great their price tag is slightly lower than in the neighboring cafes (I will save 500 rubles)), you ask to add spices and coconut milk to rice, they promise everything, but your fantasy is everything draws a marvelous dinner ... in fact ordering red grilled fish, squid, and giant shrimps (only they were delicious) squid tasted unexpressed rubber, poorly peeled, some had glassy insides, overdried fish smeared with a dumb mixture of oil and spices (dietary they managed to spoil the product with fat ((rice is dry, in some places, windy cold, and Pina Colada is the most unpleasant of those tasted on merissa and ella. Tips are included in the bill, so the senior waiter who offers to order new drinks is like the guests return the dishes almost intact) This place is recommended by the staff of another ideal cafe next door to the hut, listened to them, relaxing from the great food but in vain (Original) Твердая двойка!!!Единственная звезда за то как зазывают официанты , думаешь,о здорово у них ценник чуть ниже чем в соседних кафешках (съэкономлю руб 500)), просишь добавить в рис специи и кокосовое молоко, они все обещают, а твоя фантазия все рисует дивный ужин... по факту заказав красную рыбу на гриле, кальмаров, и гигантских креветок(только они одни были вкусными) кальмары на вкус невыраженные резиновые, плохо очищенные в некоторых были стекловидные внутренности, рыба пересушенная намазана стремной смесью маслом и специй(диетический продукт умудрились испортить жиром(( рис сухой, местами ,заветренный холодный, и пина-колада самая неприятная из опробаванных на мериссе и элле. Включены в счет чаевые, поэтому старшему официанту который предлагает заказывать новые напитки все равно что гости возвращают почти нетронутым блюда Это место рекомендуют сотрудники другого идеального кафе по соседству хижины, послушала их,раслабившись от прекрасной еды а зря

  • 1/5 Vincent w. 4 years ago on Google
    Run away! We ordered one grilled fish and one spaghetti Napolitana. The fish tasted like dust and had an awfull rubber consistency. The Napolitana pasta were in reality pasta with ketchup. When we asked to the rude waiter to change, they just rinced the pasta under water and put one half tomato on it. The meal size were ridiculous. In top of that, the waiter was aggressive (maybe he had a bad day, but we are not here to bear this) My best advice : walk on the beach and find another restaurant

    Absolutely bangin food here tonight. We came late and they basically made a table for us and were super friendly about it. On arrival, we picked our fiah from a selection freshly caught that day. Would recommend getting the barracuda - grilled, garlicky, gingery and delicious! The butter fish was also divine! We had happy hour cocktails and beers and loads of great food. Good service but a bit of a dodgy toilet - not enough to deter me from another visit but worth a mention as some of our group found them pretty bad!

Very delicious kitchen. Sea food, steaks, bbq, grill fish and its all the best quality. Staff is very good. Amazing music and candles at night. I recommend this place. There is amazing sunsets. Guys, if you read it, thank you very match. You did my vacation in Sri Lanka. Good luck! "From Russia with love"(c)

    Great place, great food, great music, and awesome people!!! On our first day, I and my fiance met Setti who greet us with a big smile as we were walking along the beach. He is also a surf teacher, a very funny and chill guy. The owner and his family, as well as his staff, are also very friendly and chill people! We ended up eating there 2 days in a row. Fresh fishes on the menu too! 💯💯

    I asked for a plain grilled fish, they spoilt it by doing it breaded, there wasn’t much left to eat actually, the fish was burnt , I doubt it was grilled, tasted like fried one, besides that they added extra position to the bill, be careful and check your bill in detail

    Lovely tasty sea food. However the service was poor, the waiter did not know half of the stuff, forgot our order and slow. Such a shame you don't get the correct cutlery for eating lobsters and crabs. The carrot juice was filled with sugar which was also a shame. The music is quite loud and the light is not as cozy as other beach restaurants.

    (Translated by Google) The usual beach cafe, good food, large portions, inexpensive beer. The service is a little lame, but it does not spoil the overall impression. Ideal as a place to eat and drink during a beach holiday. They can also fall on a deck chair for free with the condition that something will be ordered (at least a bottle of beer). (Original) Обычная пляжная кафешка, хорошая еда, большие порции, недорогое пиво. Обслуживание немного хромает, но это не портит общее впечатление. Идеально подойдёт, как место перекусить и выпить во время пляжного отдыха. У них же можно упасть на шезлонг бесплатно при помощи условии, что что-то будет заказано (хотя бы бутылка пива).

    (Translated by Google) We took a burger for the child. They asked not for a spicy one ... well, well ... they brought a seemingly burger, but for the place of meat an incomprehensible spicy porridge ... the child nibbled a bun, and then we had to try what he eats ... in general, we do not recommend taking a burger. They say grilled fish is cheap in this establishment .. did not check (Original) Брали бургер для ребенка. Просили не острый... ну да ну... принесли с виду бургер, а за место мяса непонятная острая каша ... ребенок булочку обгрыз, а потом нам пришлось попробовать что же он ест... в общем бургер не советуем брать.

    All kind of delicious food for a pretty cheap price. And the owner/staff is super friendly too. We don't understand the bad ratings of this beach restaurant. We came to eat here 3 times during our stay in Mirissa and were always very happy with everything. Even the house music they play fits the beach vibes perfectly. Well deserved 5 stars!
