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.

Shirly and his daughter run the best coffee shop in Hikkaduwa. Those who have visited SL before will know that the local coffee can be a little disappointing. Not so the coffee served here!

No.1 Roti Restaurant Hikkaduwa

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.

Neelas Beach Restaurant

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!

Tigri Beach Resturant

Reviewed By TheSnitch - St. Neots, United Kingdom

We ate here three times during our 10 day stay in Hikkaduwa - that should say something in itself. The food is great and the prices are reasonable. The restaurant is right on the beach with steps up to the eating area. You can get a drink to watch the sunset; have a good dinner or, as we did on our last day, have a lovely lunch to say goodbye to Sri Lanka. Highly recommended

The food was exceptionally good, the ambience too. A modest beach side restaurant but beautifully designed and well managed. Could have eaten there every night :) Great to be further up the beach away from the masses.Thanks so much for your review! Its great to hear that you captured our vibe!
