Came to this place a few times during our week stay in Trinco for their consistently great food. Right on one of the main intersections heading out of town from Trinco toward Uppuveli opposite a food city. They are a lively and very kind group to come and have dinner with. They have a great outdoor cooking facility so you can see a lot of the action of how your food is being prepared and cooked. Our favourites were the Vege Pizza, Egg Kottu and Egg Noodles. If you are looking for something delicious, not too far out of the way, cheap and with a smile then come down to these guys and say hi.

We found this place while our driver was trying to take us to other hotel restaurants where he would get a free meal. We were the only tourist there and it was the only place we ate where all the tables were full. In fact, I believe they chased us out saying they did not have any ice cream because there was a group of 6 waiting for our table. It was the best dinner we had in Trincolamee

We were staying in Nilavelli for two weeks and went back to this restaurant several times due to the fabulous food! The fish was very fresh and cooked to perfection. All credit to the chefs, who really know their food. The whole ambience of Red Lobster was superb, with great music playing and very friendly and welcoming staff! Cant wait to go back next year!

As the Hôtel is brand new, the restaurant looks bright white, a huge dining room open on 3 sides through arcades. So there are fans everywhere.We only had a buffet dinner there. The hotel was fully booked.Very good, fresh dishes, local and international, so spicy curries at will.A quite large selection, including some great dishes to our taste.The service and staff are good.

Place looks great and they sell cold beers and soda. Basically, that's all the positive things I can name about Fernando's. We had lunch here with friends. All four of us didn't enjoy our food: it was bland and tasteless. As one of us said: 'this was such a waste of an eating opportunity'. It really was.
