I recently visited the Seafood Restaurant, and my experience was truly delightful. The owners were very kind individuals, ensuring a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The taste of the food was absolutely awesome - I found myself eating here throughout my stay in Nilavelli.
While the waiting time for the dishes could be a tad longer, they are upfront about it during the ordering process. I appreciate their transparency. On one occasion, I inquired about card payments during my second visit. Although they don't usually accept cards, they made an exception and allowed me to pay the next day.I was pleasantly surprised by their gesture, particularly considering I'm a tourist from a different country. This act of kindness is a testament to their genuine nature.
For their genuine warmth and delicious offerings, I highly recommend a visit to this restaurant. It's a place that not only serves fantastic food but also embodies kindness and goodwill.

Tiger Prawns
Went there in an evening. Had grilled prawns with vegetables and a fresh fruit juice. Both were super delicious and great value for money. Calm and quiet surroundings. Expect to visit again.

Local Sri Lankan Tamil home cook food run by a family of siblings. Good value. Affordable price. Decent quality. Delicious. The food prepared is clean, hygenic, (vegetables were boiled/ properly cooked). Had meals there twice, no problem. Did not get sick.

Food was made to order, hot and fresh. Portions are good compared to other expensive restaurants in hotels. Good price considering it is near the beach and it is in Nilaveli, Trincomalee where prices are so high for tourists.
Lovely Mother and Daughter (I suppose) who cooks and serves meals.
Only one negative is the group of flies which I think is very common anywhere here in Sri Lanka.

Very Good restaurant with tasty fish-dishes and a nice, sympathetic host! We went there at different evenings with four people and everyone was amazed. Actually one of the best restaurants we have been to on our Sri Lankan journey.
Definitely „the place to go“ due to the lack of a selection of good restaurants in the area.
My personal recommendation: the devilled dishes, especially the „devilled cuttlefish rice“ (calamari in a sweet-sour sauce)

Beautiful looking food and the taste ... I don't know what to say, I have no words. It's great, we got it quickly, in a great atmosphere. Just everything you expect from a really good business. Prices are very fair. Thank you for a great gourmet experience. PS. Prawns kottu was one of best meal in my life.
Great food and the bunch was delicious! Good value for money and extra cheap for tourists and if your 'white' gets better service haha. Fresh juices are literally freshly squeezed! Nice to experience local interactions, clean place and prices 9.5/10!

Friendly staffs, very polite and caring. Decent English to communicate and explain things.
Food is delicious and prepare fresh when you order. Because of it, it will take around 30min to 40min to prepare main, depends on what you order.
