Quiet, comfortable environment full of good food, and good coffee! Menu is a mix of Western recipes and Sri Lankan dishes. Sadly the place could use some more ventilation to help with the flies and cooking smells.

The best coffee we have had in Sri Lanka, the staff are very friendly and we're happy that the coffee was as good as any we get in our favourite cafes in Sydney. The coconut cake that comes with ice cream was excellent as well. Air conditioning and free wifi make it a great place to get out of the heat. Highly recommended

This was by far the tastiest meal I’ve had in Sri Lanka. The service was fantastic, speedy and friendly, the portions were large and the food tasted incredible. I couldn’t ask for more. I had the vegetable and feta wrap, and my boyfriend had a chicken wrap and we shared a bowl of nachos. My wrap was fresh and bursting with flavour, and the nachos were spicy and delicious. Cannot recommend this place highly enough! It was also a great place to hide from the heat and mosquitos as the interior is air conditioned and comfortable. I will definitely be returning before we leave!

It was very nice food. I had pasta and my girlfriend had pizza. We were the only customers but they were very accommodating and nice. The place was clean and we had a nice meal. I would like to know how buzzing the place can be in the actual tourist season. The waiter told us that this was mostly the case from December until April.

Got a take away burrito from here. Was one of the highlights of my entire life. Definitely try their Mexican food. Tried to go back the next night but they were too busy. Owner was very honest, told us he had a table of 15 ahead of us and waiting time on food would be 40 minutes at least. Left because we were too hungry to wait. Disappointed that we didn't get to try this food again, but appreciate the owners honesty. Will definitely be high on my list next visit to Mirissa.
