We are staying inside Galle Fort. Is it safe to walk from a restaurant to our hotel at 11 PM?

Galle Fort is extremely safe. It is walled, policed, and full of tourists. Walking at night is totally fine. Just be wary of the odd stray dog barking.

I walked alone as a solo female from dinner to my hotel every night and felt 100% safe.

If you walk along the ramparts at night, take a small flashlight, there are some uneven patches and you don't want to twist an ankle.

The Fort is a bubble of safety. You will see people walking at all hours. It is the most relaxed place in Sri Lanka.
