“ Jesna and her family are so lovely. We came multiple times when we were in Arugam Bay. We ordered the vegetable curry and rice and it was amazing & cooked fresh. It was multiple vegetable dishes with a massive bowl of rice and they even gave us coconut sambol and poppadoms free of charge. They were so lovely and the prices are really reasonable- definitely visit! ”

“ This is the real hidden gem of Arugam Bay! Delicious and generous portions of traditional Sri Lankan food. Once we discovered it, we came back every night for dinner at Ishaq’s place! The portions were so big we usually shared. The rice and curry is a must-try, the rotti is amazing, and don’t miss out on a fresh, cold king coconut! ”
“ I stayed one month in Arugam Bay and I many times had dinner at Ishaq’s restaurant. I like this place because it’s hidden from the noisy main street, for cosy atmosphere and also for tasty local food that I tried here. I tried everything rice and carry, prawns, chicken, tuna, different fresh juices and all were cooked and served very well. Moreover, I also used their laundry service and Ishaq helped me to rent tuk tuk cheaper than in other places, so I can definitely recommend Ishaq’s restaurant! ”
“ Being at Ishaq's was one of the best parts of being in Arugam Bay. We came frequently to eat and were always super happy. They made an extra effort cook something which my partner having gastritis can eat. We secretly called the main person "our friend" when we said we want to come here to eat. Also great laundry service. Very hard working people and we wish them all the best, but also enough rest <3 ”
