Small road side eatery in Tissa serving the best local food we tasted in Sri Lanka and at a very reasonable price. Highly recommended

The food and service was amazing! Had fresh whole fish and jumbo prawns with a beautiful tropical salad. Some of the best seafood I had in 6 weeks of travel around Sri Lanka.

Clean and welcoming local restaurant. Certainly not a charming place but probably the best choice in Kataragama. Rice and Curry was very good and only 140 Rp, also fried noodles very good.

Nasty staff who did not want to cook certain food on the menu as it was a big job for them! I have never heard anything like this. They do not cater for vegetarians and most of the menu items are in-fact not real. We walked out as half of the items they did not want to serve us.
Would not recommend as staff were extremely rude and not accommodating.
Also to add, the staff are somewhat racist to Indians (which came as a complete shock to us).

We ordered deviled chicken with vegetable fried rice and it was really good! The experience was even better because of the good service of the owner, always with a smile and happy to receive us. He also let us bring our own drinks and helped us catch a ride back our hostel.

Reviewed By Akshaya S - Noida, India
For a place so close to Yala (and its influx of tourist), Tissamaharama is surprisingly low on good eating options specially at night. Some of them are either too costly or too thin (in terms of attendance) that you worry about burning your pockets and eating not so fresh food.
But Flavors are kind of exception for us. The service was personal - with the owner and her staff paying attention to each customer. Food was tasty and made to order (in terms of spices). Overall, a wonderful place to eat.
