Where can tourists find the freshest seafood restaurants in Negombo?

For the absolute freshest seafood experience visit the Negombo fish market called Lellama early in the morning between five and seven. You can personally pick out your fish, prawns, or crabs directly from the fishermen unloading their overnight catch. Several small restaurants near the market will then cook your selection however you like for a small preparation fee. For a more relaxed sit down dinner try the popular beach road restaurants between Lewis Place and Porutota Road. Grand Street and the famous Dolce Vita area have several reputable seafood spots serving butter prawns, garlic crab, devilled cuttlefish, and grilled lagoon fish. Always confirm the price per kilogram before ordering as seafood is typically charged by weight. A satisfying seafood feast for two should cost around eight thousand rupees with drinks included.
