සිංහල බිජෝ කියන්නේ මීගමුවේ පෝරුතොට පාරේ තියෙන ස්විට්සර්ලන්ත අවන්හලකට. එයාලා සාධාරණව මිල නියම කළ, කදිම කෑම ලබා දෙනවා. සේවාව අති විශිෂ්ටයි වගේම අයිතිකරුවන්ගේ සහ කාර්යමණ්ඩලයේ ආගන්තුක සත්කාරය ඉතාම ඉහළයි.

I haven't been to this place but come on… seriously…1200Rs for cordon bleu? That's way too much…

I would totally recommend NOT to go here if you are Srilankan. Sad though, this is a true experience that somewhat tarnished our recent visit to Negambo. Despite being seated for over 15 minutes, 3 reminders to the waiter and one reminder to the managers ( sort of) person at the counter area, we got ZERO service.
I would generally attribute this to being a busy time, if not for the prompt attention all the foreigners got all around us, despite arriving afterwards.
And we were not the only locals who got the same treatment. The food may be good, but who needs attitudes or behaviors of this sort….

There is another restaurant in the are (Ice bear I think or something that sounds similar) who refused to serve us because we were Sri Lankan. It is an insult that should not be tolerated.

There is a similar place called Icebear (Or sounds something like that). They refuse to serve us as it was for foreigners only. Very bad and should not be tolerated in Sri Lanka.

This restaurant is just overrated.

After having lived in Switzerland for many years and throughly enjoying the cuisine on offer, I was excited to try this restaurant following the review in YAMU…
All I can say is that I was extremely disappointed, just by reading the menu (after which I actually got up and left!)… There were nearly no Swiss dishes on the 7/8page menu! In fact the only one I could see was Cheese fondue…
Even more shocking was that this "Swiss" restaurant had Chinese and Devilled dishes!
I am glad I was passing by Negombo anyway and didn't make a special trip to read that disappointing menu!

I guess the other commenters have not caught the 'quirky' vibe that Indi's Yamu capturs subtlely and perceptively by this review. I used to live with my Dutch boyfriend while working for MAS during one memorable year 1999. Dolly had been diagnosed with cancer in Switz and instead of spending her years in the western cradle of medical marvels, decided to invest in this resto and have an active and happy life. The woman is a wonderful creature and it is not for the menu that I went there but for the crazy-quirky atmo of a real-live trattoria style place in Negombo where anyone is welcome. We had her cheese fondue 2000 31st night with other friends. Long live Dolly and her spirit. That little resto stands for a lot more than its menu!

Yamu i don't think your reviews match the standards of the place, unless you're paid to advertise it.
I have had a really terrible food experience there. I had to throw up the food on the table. It was that bad. They gave us stale food. Maybe the owner should be back in Sri Lanka to close the place so at least someone won't get food poisoning.
Please take serious notes, because based on your reviews people visit restaurants, Bijou was one of your earlier reviews and that's the reason we went there. Now i am highly in doubt whether to take any of your reviews seriously!
