Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Best restaurant in trincomalee if not all of Sri Lanka. Fresh fish and seafood and incredibly delicious curries. The restaurant is run by the warmest people we had the pleasure to meet in Sri Lanka. We will be back again!

Food here was great, and very cheap for the area. My boyfriend tried the crab curry as well as the prawn curry, and really enjoyed both of them - the crab curry was his favorite meal of our whole trip. Since i am vegan i...had the vegetable curry, and it was also very good, both the one with rice and the one with roti(they had more vegan options as well). The family who runs the place is super nice. The second time we came here it was super late and we were just walking around trying to find any place that was open. We asked the woman if they were closed(cause the place was empty) and she said yes but then she called for her husband, the chef, who was upstairs. He came down and they said we could sit down! They stayed open just to make us food! Really saved our night since we were very hungry but went out to late so everything was closed.More

Wow, what a lovely experience. We had such a great time at Trinco Lanka restaurant. We had sea food (grilled fish, prawns and sea food salad) and it was so tasty. For dessert, we took the coconut pancakes that were super yummy. Plus, we could...ask for hot water for our own tea bags. What made it really special was the family working there. They are so friendly and welcoming, and we have fallen in love with her little daughter. It felt like having dinner at home. Thanks so much! Highly recommended!More
