We emailed Sankarest to ask if they could cook us some traditional Sri Lankian food. When we arrived we were very warmly welcomed into a beautiful house and seated on their verandah. The food was far beyond our expectations, so many different dishes, all so wonderful especially the shredded aubergine....... We have never tasted anything like it, it was amazing. If you are looking for a traditional Sri Lankian experience with wonder food provided by lovely people then this is the place your looking for.
Thank you Sankarest

We ordered the tuna fish and it was perfect prepared with an amazing sauce that completed the dish. It was quite expensive (2000 per dish) but the portion of the tuna was good for 2 people.

We found this lovely restaurant nearby our hotel. We have been welcomed warmly by Kuma, Berty and the rest of the crew. Of course, the service speed has not been the fastest and world greatest, but the warm hospitality they gave us, let us forget about couple of minutes waiting time. And at the end, we have been on holidays and have not been in a rush at all. The food has been excellent and the chocolate milk-shake has been amazing. We went there back almost on a daily basis, for food n drinks. We highly recommend the chicken noodles.
We also booked the tours with them. Kuma picked us up at our hotel and drove us to Bentota and we did some nice sightseeing: Turtle farm, Buddha statute and temple, Souvenir shops, etc. Kuma has been very caring and patient.
He also booked us a day tour to Kandy with Dhammika, a very good and safe driver and a great tour guide. We also booked Dhammika to drive us back to the airport. His hybrid Honda has been very clean and we felt safe all the time - not like with our first taxi driver, organised by the hotel.
We only can recommend the services of Kuma, Berty and Dhammika. They have been very honest to us, which has been the most important factor.

We are offering various types of food items at a reasonable price. Specialised in Roti where there are wide range of verieties to choose from. Prawns cheese tomato avocado roti is one of the top selling items. We also have Sri Lankan style rice and curry freshly made upon ordering that nicely go with many types of Rotis.

Stumbled upon this restaurant by accident - to the westerner's eye it may look shabby - but don't be fooled by its looks. The staff there are super friendly and helpful and their food is just amazing at the most friendly prices. We got roti for lunch and then came back again for dinner - their mango smoothie, avocado cheese roti and dhal curry with rice were so delicious. Would have come for more if we hadn't been continuing to another town. We still dream about the delish dishes.

Neela's beach restaurant offers a delicious food and a friendly atmosphere. Our beachfront location means you can sit on the beach or on the wooden decor until your food is served. Hikkaduwa is a paradise for the swimmers, sun worshippers, surfers and snorkellers. Popular surf breaks are minutes away or just relax on a sunbed and watch the turquoise waves roll in. Our restaurant is only a few short steps from the sea. Begin the day with a leisurely breakfast or join us for a lazy lunch. At the end of the day enjoy an amazing sunset followed by dinner under the stars. Our family have been welcoming tourists to Hikkaduwa for more than 30 years. Our experience ensures great service and attention to detail; whether you're a first time visitor or one of our old friends. So come and sample traditional Sri Lankan hospitality in beautiful south west Sri Lanka. See you soon!

Neelas is easily the best place to eat beach front. Never had a bad meal here. 13 years later we still come here most days to eat drink and swim in the beautiful sea straight in front of Neelas. Keep up the good work. Personally recommend the deep fried prawns with chips and salad. Amazing!
