The restaurant is tucked away behind the Dutch Hospital Precinct in Fort, Colombo. Went with friends last week to try something new. This place has been around for a while but we had never visited. Not disappointed at all. Good decor, efficient service and good food reasonably priced. Our Crab was served with toasted crusty bread, and a coconut symbol. (A traditional sri Lanka's dish with grated coconut, green and red chillies, lime juice and Maldive fish). Everything was very flavoursome and enjoyable as well as plentiful. Shall visit again.

We visited based on friends recommendation and made a 1 hour trip just for this and it did not disappoint. The crabs are expensive but once you tuck in you start to appreciate why. They are simply amazing. We also tried the prawnzilla but we prefer the crab :)

Upon entering, you are faced with a superb counter of the freshest fish and seafood you can find in Sri Lanka. You decide what you want to eat, how you want it cooked and what sauce and side dishes to accompany: Sri Lankan, Chinese, Continental, Etc. The service is typically Sri-Lankan: attentionate and smiling. Special Thanks to Danuka for making our evening a success, eating on the terrace overlooking lavish greenery and pond.

Anyone visiting Colombo should seriously consider taking time to make a reservation at Seafish Restaurant. From arrival everything proved that this restaurant is one which has perfected itself over the years. A warm welcome awaited me, a great glass of wine wine quickly served while the extensive menu was perused. With help[ from the staff, I ordered a crab dish - a good decision. Service was attentive throughout. This place is well worth cancelling other arrangements for.
