About

Choose Ambulthiyal for local business in Sri Lanka, a restaurant set at 120rd No.315 in Boralesgamuwa. The venue sits within the Colombo district, placing it close to the commercial capital and its surrounding suburbs. It is a straightforward local eatery rather than a destination dining room.

Ambulthiyal takes its name from the sour fish curry that defines Sri Lankan cooking, and the kitchen serves the rice-and-curry tradition that anchors meals across the island. Diners can expect spice-forward plates built around rice, curry and seafood, the staples that appear on tables from Colombo to Galle. A rating of 3.2 out of 5 across 59 reviews reflects a mixed reception from the diners who have eaten here. The restaurant is also within reach of Kandy, Negombo, Bentota, Mirissa, Unawatuna and Arugam Bay for travellers moving around the island.

Five photographs accompany the listing, showing the food and the setting. The address at 120rd No.315, Boralesgamuwa, places the restaurant in a Colombo suburb rather than the tourist strip. Boralesgamuwa sits on the road network that links the capital with the southern coast.

Sri Lanka's tropical climate keeps the southwest coast driest roughly December to March, while the east coast suits visits roughly May to September. Island cooking is spice-driven, built around rice and curry, fresh seafood and tropical fruit, so first-time visitors should expect heat in the food as well as the weather. Aeroplanes from abroad land on the island, and coaches and trains carry passengers between its towns. Sinhala and Tamil are the main languages, with English widely used, which makes ordering and directions manageable for most visitors.
