DIL Sea Food Restaurant — Restaurant in Weligama

A Must-Visit Seafood Paradise in Weligama – Fresh, Flavorful, and Heartwarming!

If you’re looking for the freshest seafood in Weligama, this place is an absolute must! From the ocean straight to your plate, the quality is simply outstanding. We had the chance to enjoy one of the best lobsters of our lives, perfectly cooked and served alongside a delicious plate of noodles. What made this experience even more incredible is that the food was completely free from spice—something incredibly rare to find in Sri Lanka! As someone allergic to spicy food, I know how challenging it can be to enjoy local dishes without the heat, but here, you can fully savor the flavors without any concerns.

Dil, his husband, and their amazing staff go above and beyond to provide not only top-notch seafood but also an unforgettable dining experience. Eating with your feet in the sand while enjoying a breathtaking view is simply magical. The ability to select your own lobster from the fresh seafood display adds an extra touch of exclusivity to the meal.

Beyond the incredible food, what truly makes this place special is the kindness and generosity of Dil and his husband. They have the biggest hearts, taking care of the local stray dogs, feeding them, and making sure they are safe and well. Their love and dedication to these animals make this place not just a restaurant but a haven of warmth and compassion.

Whether you’re a seafood lover or just looking for an authentic, fresh, and heartwarming experience in Weligama, this is the place to be. Highly recommended—don’t miss it! A true must-visit and must-eat spot...

Highly recommended!!!

I wouldnt like to be dramatic but, it was one of the best food we ever consumed. First we saw they use ICE on the presenting table which is a huge plus.

When we approached the place we were lucky and met with the owner who is a an extremly humble lady exquisite english speaker and you can literally see in her sme how much the restaurant and the cooking means to her. No question we were amazed and soon enough we took our table.

I ordered half a kilo giant shrimps while my fiancée sticked to the crab. The food has arrived in less than half hour so the service was really quick.

Everything was amazing they serve you with extra sauces, 4 of them, the garlic one is outstanding and fits extremly well to any seafood. Beside of the main dish we ordered chips and a mixed vegetable salad both came in great amount and high quality.

Do yoursef a favor and come here if you would like to eat a great meal. (We also tried fishpoint earlier, if you are still considering I would vote to...

I sincerely recommend this place! Pleasant and cozy atmosphere, tables are located on the beach, and after sunset, the staff kindly light candles on each table. As for the food, they really impressed me! I don't really like seafood myself, but I was with my family, and they wanted to eat fresh seafood, so our choice fell on this place. Despite this fact, I was very impressed by the quality and taste characteristics of the dishes! Everything was incredibly delicious, I would like to pay special attention to sea perch, I have never tried such delicious sea perch anywhere else! Despite all this, I was very surprised by the words of the owner of this restaurant that the Sri Lankan government wants to close this place. In my opinion, the government should support such institutions and help in development, not close them. Thanks to such establishments, tourists have a pleasant impression of Sri Lanka, which helps to develop...
