Another good little restaurant in Ella. We had the 5 vegetable curry and rice dish and papadams with chutney. All very tasty & good. They also serve Lion beer and Spanish wine. Although to my pallet the wine has not travelled well and was rather acid. The restaurant is above the bank so it's a little out of the way so easily missed if you're looking for it.

Best accommodation and food I’ve had in one month in Sri Lanka! Really friendly family, great spacious room with a balcony looking on to the Main Street - unbeatable location! Had the most amazing dinner on our final night in Ella, only regret we didn’t try it sooner! We both ordered a veg curry with rice, all curries were so flavoursome and delicious the best I’ve had. Aubergine and pumpkin curries were incredible. Really recommend staying here - great breakfast too!

A good value meal. As a group of 8 we had a selection of curry dishes which were all served together and were tasty. Probably one of the best value eating places we found. The lady owner does the cooking whilst her husband does front of house. We did come close to drinking them out of cold beer but they coped well. Great value and lovely people.
Review for food, not hotel. Excellent food and fair prices. Huge portions. Excellent service. Not crowdy at all, maybe people doesn't notice it, cos' place is not at ground floor? Please visit here, you might taste your best Sri Lankan food ever ❤️

Amazing Sri Lankan food in Ella! Fair prices (not seen in Ella), big portions, full of taste, cooked with love :) Fried noodles with egg and vegetable curry mix with rice - highly recommended!
Whilst I've rated the rooms, I only came here for lunch but didn't want to mark it down as I had a great meal and it warranted coming back here again the next day. Great place for Sri Lankan food! The rice and curry is authentic with a home cooked feel. You can either get 5 veggie dishes with rice or pick a meat/fish curry and get the same veggie sides with it. It's a feast for one and comes in at 1000 LKR. It included a coconut sambol, okra, eggplant, pumpkin and lentils. I had the prawn curry and it was a good portion with nice warm flavours. The pictured plate is about half the food so I understand why it's not just all served on one plate, it's a lot of food! Friends had the kottu and biryani and both were happy with their choices as well but i think the rice and curry's the star. Be warned food's not westernised so has a little bit of spice, but nothing that should blow your socks off if you can handle a bit of spiciness. I really appreciated this coming from a Sri Lankan background, it felt like having a meal prepared by an auntie. So if you want to try something truly authentic give this a go!
The food tastes so good. We have tried rice with vegetable curry. They have given 5 types of curries. All the curries are good. I am from South India and these curries reminded me of South Indian home food.

Stayed in Ella for 24 hours, this restaurant is the only place we would visit again. Seating above the main strip so slightly away from the noise and fumes. We had the Kottu with veggie curries, mango lassi & milky spiced tea, all amazing

Review is for the restaurant (not guesthouse) We had a really really good dinner at Jade Green, the staff was super friendly and made us a special meal that was not on the menu and everything tasted amazing! Would go back anytime! From the terrace you can watch people on the Main Street
