    Fantastic dining experience!

    What an incredible experience! From the moment we walked in, we were treated exceptionally well. The food was fantastic, the service was top-notch, and the house special cocktail is something you definitely have to try.

    Incredible sunset vibes in Colombo

    Every time I come here, I have a wonderful experience. The atmosphere at sunset is amazing, and I never expected to find a spot in Colombo that offers the same ambiance as those down south, complete with the beach and a beautiful sunset.

    Service Needs Serious Improvement

    The service here has become terrible, and it seems to be getting worse over time. The staff really needs better training. We waited 20 minutes just to receive the menu, and then another 30 minutes passed before we got our beer! Are they brewing it from scratch?

    Food led to serious stomach issues

    I had the prawn tacos yesterday and soon after, I experienced severe vomiting and diarrhea. Please document this incident as I might require your information for medical or insurance reasons.

    Disappointing Experience with Cocktails

    What a terrible experience! We had a long wait for just two cocktails. My daiquiri was only filled halfway, lacked flavor, and seemed poorly prepared. The waiter accidentally spilled half of the second drink on the table and walked away without saying anything. The only redeeming factor was the location.

    Disappointing Experience with Service

    The service was poor: it was slow and they brought the wrong order, yet they still charged me for it! The fish dishes that were actually available (most weren’t!) were just okay, but certainly not worth the price!

    Disappointing experience overall

    In short, this was disappointing. While the location and live band were nice, they couldn't compensate for the slow and unhelpful service, along with the mediocre food that was extremely overpriced (note that they add taxes and service charges on top). This has been one of the priciest places we've dined at during our two weeks in Sri Lanka. I do not recommend it.

    I ordered Cuban rice this (Monday) evening. Got chinese fried rice and salty beef cheek instead. Not coming again.
