Mirissa Eye Review

This restaurant is right on the beach. I went there after seeing a recommendation. I ordered a grouper, two pounds of prawns, and a squid, which cost 5,500 rupees in total. Someone said that I could bargain, but I talked for a long time and the price didn't go down. That's all. The best thing was the grilled fish, which tasted good and suited the Chinese taste. The squid was too big and tasted okay, so it was hard for two people to finish it.

A very lively restaurant and bar, probably located in the most central part of the beach. The waiters can speak a few words in Chinese. The prices are mid-to-high for this place, and many people come here because of its reputation. The seafood looks good, but it doesn't taste very fresh. It seems that it is always like this, because Sri Lankans do not kill animals, and the seafood is all frozen to death.

I ate here for two nights in a row. First of all, I would like to give an overall evaluation. I think the scenery is good, the service is average, and you can choose the seafood yourself, but I don’t know if it’s my psychology or something. I think the food on the second day is not as delicious as the first day, and the portion is a little smaller.

What a coincidence! When we went there, it was Christmas Eve. The atmosphere was pretty good. There was a band, fireworks, and the waiters all wore Christmas hats. It was lively and cute. As for food, the seafood was fresh, but the service was a bit worse. The dishes were super slow and we waited for a long time. Tips: You can get discounts on seafood, lobster 7000 rupees, 4 crabs 3700 rupees, red snapper 2000 rupees, and don't forget happy hour! !

After a day of fun today, we returned to the hotel at around 5 o'clock to rest, and then came out later to prepare for the seafood feast we had longed for!!! We had dinner at the famous Mirissa Eye. We ordered a lobster, a brown crab, and a local crayfish called Jambo Lobster. The restaurant charges 8,500 rupees for a lobster, but my friends used their eloquence to bargain the price of three seafoods down to 8,000 rupees. They were simply worshipful!! (starry eyes) After waiting for a while, we finally got our seafood. The shrimps here look very similar to the shrimps eaten in Beijing, but they are very big. The head and tail together must be 30cm. When they were served, we were completely dumbfounded. Each seafood was served with a portion of rice and salad. Three seafoods means three portions of rice and salad, which must be too much to eat. Sure enough, we couldn't eat any more after eating the three seafoods. It was the first time in my life that I ate so much seafood, and the rice and salad were completely wasted. By the way, I would like to remind everyone that you must order according to your own appetite to avoid waste. The photos are not accurate, so please refer to the actual product.
