Differente Italian Restaurant
About
Differente Italian Restaurant is a restaurant in Sri Lanka. Differente Italian Restaurant sits on Galle Road in Narigama, a coastal strip on the island's southern shore. The kitchen serves Italian cooking rather than the rice-and-curry menus common elsewhere on the island.
Differente Italian Restaurant opens every day of the week from 09:00 to 23:00, so a table is available from breakfast through to a late dinner. Diners have given the restaurant a 4.5 out of 5 average, a score that places it among the higher-regarded tables along this stretch of coast. That figure rests on 419 reviews, a volume that shows the kitchen has fed a steady stream of guests rather than a handful of passing visitors. Booking ahead is worth considering given that review total, particularly during the busier evening service.
One photograph accompanies the venue's listing, showing a glimpse of what diners can expect. The restaurant keeps the same 09:00-23:00 schedule across all seven days, so there is no need to plan around a rest day. Narigama sits close to Galle, making the restaurant a straightforward stop for anyone travelling along the southern coast.
Sri Lanka's tropical climate divides the year between the southwest coast, driest roughly December to March, and the east coast, best roughly May to September. Meals on the island lean on spice, with rice and curry, fresh seafood and tropical fruit shaping most menus, so an Italian kitchen offers a change of pace. Sinhala and Tamil are the main languages, with English widely used, which makes ordering straightforward for most visitors. International flights serve the island, and getting around is done by road and rail, so reaching Narigama along Galle Road fits easily into a southern itinerary.
