Our first day in Bentota and went for lunch to Amal beach restaurant as it is In a great location ...big mistake! We ordered two beers and it took a while for them to arrive. The guy serving us obviously didn't want to be there!...We ordered another two beers and same wait. We ordered food and it took over an hour to arrive. The food was average. Our bill came and included a 20% service charge (which was not discretionary). Shocking. We will not be back and would not recommend.More

Taken here by tuk tuk driver was a bit unsure at first thought we would get stung we was wrong ! Food very good drinks very good prices excellent. Looks upmarket and expensive when you go in, but a really nice place with attentive service...Nice place for romantic night out (in a tuk tuk😍big spender) Thanks Mr Tuk Tuk driver(the one who wears Amal shirt)More

Great food, excellent ambience and great service! Definitely worth it! The lobster is to die for! One should try eating out at the beach side...

Friends who had been staying with us treated us on their last night. We chose Amal Villa and were all very happy with our meals. My langosteen was amazing. My friends had Coral fish and calamaries which were delicious. My boyfriend had a very tender...steak. I got to taste the fish dishes too! The coconut roti and garlic butter with a finely sliced coleslaw salad was a lovely included starter. The owner and the waiters made sure we felt special. We finished off with Arrack Attack cocktails. A perfect meal. Thank you Amal Villa Restaurant.More

My wife and I took a friend for dinner, the food was excellent, we had prawn cocktail starters, perfect, and followed by sizzling steak, again perfect, will be returning.

Were taken there by our tuk tuk driver who recommended it to us. Really nice and fun restaurant. The lobster and jumbo prawns were beautifully cooked and presented! What’s more is that excellent coffee was served afterwards! Great evening

I am from the USA and often eat Maryland crabs. The crab curry at Amal was the best crab I ever tasted. We will be going back tomorrow on our way to the airport. Amazing food and great service.
