Flamingo House - Colombo

I have dined at Flamingo House on multiple occasions and each experience has exceeded my expectations. The interior ambiance of the restaurant is unique and makes guests feel like they are in a special place where the owners have paid attention to every detail with love. The service staff is attentive, polite, and very knowledgeable about the menu, wine list, and cocktail pairings. The highlight, however, is always the food which never fails to impress and leaves me eagerly anticipating my next visit. I highly recommend the lamb shank, which literally melts in your mouth, followed closely by the hot toddy chicken.

This was our first time visit we actually wanted to go to their pub so when we went there the bouncers said its only by reservation that you can enter so we turned back and gave a call the persona who answered said if we dine in the restaurant later we can go to the pub so he took our reservation, His name is Jerome very pleasant guy and a good salesman. Restaurant ambience was really nice so we ordered the main mean and we ordered 2 red wines as well. It was a total rip off the i ordered the some chicken steak kind of thing which came with mash potato unfortunately the portion was so small costed 1400 mash potato was pumpkin could you believe that people cheat this big. the broccoli which was served was all old really disappointing. Then this guy Jerome asked us to go to the pub and the waiters were after us asking us to order so again we ordered, and the DJ was playing some horrible music and if he played something nice and when we went to the dance floor quickly he changed the music we felt he was doing on purpose. Jerome said we can go to the night club so around 12.30 am when we asked if we could go then he said its only for VIP's and stopped us, it was all about selling their dinner that he kept agreeing for everything we asked for. I felt it was just a big rip off ...I wouldn't recommend anyone

There are no words to describe how good the food is here a Flamingo House, Colombo. topped with the best service anyone can wish for, J.Jerome went above and beyond duty while serving us. Professional, articulate, described all food coming out, helped us understand some of the history and wonderful restaurant story... the food, the story, the service, the atmosphere is outstanding.. you won’t be disappointed:

The seafood kottu is worth a visit on its own. Lovely atmosphere, good service and very strong cocktails!!

After spending two weeks exploring the beautiful country, we had our last meal in Sri Lanka at this restaurant. It was perfect; the only error we made was ordering too much food because everything on the menu sounded amazing. The service was outstanding, and every dish we sampled was delicious. I tried the Flamingo House chilli rice special, which had a nice spicy kick to it and was absolutely delicious. The decor is charming and whimsical, and there is a cozy little bar where you can enjoy drinks after your meal.
