    Avoid Roti for Your Health

    I advise against ordering roti here. We enjoyed a good meal overall, but out of our group, only two people had the roti. Those two ended up getting sick that night, while the rest of us who had the same food and drinks did not experience any issues.

    Fantastic Local Supermarket Experience

    This is the most impressive supermarket I've ever been to, with a wide range of products on offer. They also have a bakery section, and I have to highlight the Rotti hut, which was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend this local supermarket.

    Great spot for groceries and meals

    Somasiri is a grocery store and supermarket located conveniently in Ella town, making it ideal for shopping and dining. They stock all the essential grocery items you might need, such as milk powder, chocolates, and daily necessities. When it comes to food, they have a fantastic variety available for both dine-in and takeaway, including fresh parata, egg roti, rolls, and full lunch and dinner options. The food is not only delicious but also reasonably priced, offering excellent value for money. I highly recommend trying the Nutella chocolate roti from ROTI HUT; it's simply delicious and definitely a must-try! This place is great for both locals and tourists visiting Ella. Whether you're looking to pick up groceries or enjoy a satisfying meal, Somasiri has you covered.

    Convenient spot for travelers in Ella

    This supermarket in Ella is a fantastic one-stop-shop for travelers. It features a café, a "rotti hut," and a bakery in addition to the usual supermarket offerings. The bakery offers quality baked goods; we picked up some buns at night that were soft and delicious. The café operates more like a restaurant, providing options for a quick drink, snack, or meal. The supermarket itself boasts an impressive variety of groceries, including both local and international products. You can find all the essentials along with the usual ice cream selection. There are also some fashion and travel items, such as sunglasses, and yes, they do sell cigarettes for those interested. Parking is limited to a small area for a few cars, so most people will likely have to rely on street parking since it's located in the center of Ella. Overall, it's the most convenient place for travelers to pick up food, groceries, and just about anything else they might need.

    Charming Supermarket with Dining Options

    Somasiri Supermarket features an antique interior design (check out my attached photos) and offers indoor seating for dining, reminiscent of Korean convenience stores like GS25. It had everything my girlfriend and I were looking for, although we couldn't find any non-spicy cup noodles, which seems to be a common issue in Sri Lankan supermarkets.

    Fantastic local meal experience

    I visited the restaurant located at the back of the supermarket and enjoyed a wonderful local meal. The curry and rice were delightful, and the omelette was equally tasty. The staff were very friendly, and it was a good sign to see so many locals dining there! The value was incredible too, with a massive curry and rice costing only 650.

    Great food and friendly service

    This establishment is referred to as a supermarket, but it also features a small restaurant. There’s a wide variety of items and decorative pieces available. It's an excellent spot for both dining and grocery shopping. The food is tasty, clean, and fairly priced. The staff are all very friendly, pleasant, and helpful. I have special fondness for Prema Thilaka, who works in the cafeteria here. Highly recommended.

    Disappointing Experience with Average Food

    Behind this spot, there's a restaurant that serves mostly local dishes, focusing on rice and curry. I tried the prawn fried rice, which had very few prawns and even came with some nails. I also ordered a banana Nutella rotti and ended up waiting for 30 minutes. I considered leaving but ended up taking my food to go after such a long wait. The service was poor, and the food was just average and quite basic. There are definitely better restaurants in Ella with superior service. I won't be returning here again.

    Great Halal Food Inside Supermarket

    This is a small supermarket that has a fantastic hidden restaurant within. I confirmed with the staff that they serve halal food. The prices are reasonable as well.
