ВХОДА С УЛИЦЫ - НЕТ! Это важно, мы долго метались, пытались пройти через соседнее кафе, нас не пустили. Пришлось обходить по пляжу метров 300. Вход со стороны условной парковки, где берут плату 200руп. за оставленный байк. В кафе совсем никого не было, на пляже два пластиковых столика под солнцем, мы сели внутри, было комфортно, потому что прохладно, но кафе формата «сели во дворе на песке». Видимо днем гостей не бывает, поэтому кухню пришлось расчехлять с нуля, будто долговато. Мы заказали Котту, чтоб без сюрпризов, проверенно-надежно, 1000рупий с овощами, 12000 - с яйцом. Мне показалось, что лапша была не доваренная, может просто спешили нас накормить. Персонал приветливый, старались угодить, но по совокупности факторов объективная 3-ка.

Chooty place is the best corner of the beach, in front of the best place for swimming in clean water with turtles, the sunbeds are so chill and the Rice and Curry is the best of the beach, you can sit directly in front of the sea. Chooty and his staff are the best in kindness, hospitality and if you need any information they are happy to help you. You can't miss this place!
Visiting Chooty Place - Beach Chill & Restaurant offers a unique, rustic beachside dining experience, though it comes with its own set of quirks. The food quality was generally good, but the portions left something to be desired. We attempted to sample a variety of dishes, but it seemed like there may have been some miscommunication in our order.
One notable issue was the service time. We were initially told that our food would take around 35 minutes, but it ended up being closer to an hour. This delay was a bit disappointing. In terms of the food itself, the prawn curry was a highlight, packed with prawns. However, the chicken curry was less impressive, featuring only a few small pieces of chicken, mostly bone.
The restaurant's location is its most charming aspect, with direct access to the beach. However, it's worth noting that it appears to be situated at the back of someone's house, contributing to its rustic and unpolished ambiance. We initially seated ourselves on the beach but had to move indoors due to the threat of rain.
Finding the restaurant was a challenge; it took us about 10 minutes to locate the entrance, as there was no clear signage. The owner did mention plans to put up a sign soon, which should help future visitors.
Overall, Chooty Place offers a unique beach dining experience, but could benefit from improvements in service efficiency, portion sizes, and clearer signage. It's a spot with potential, especially for those who appreciate a more laid-back, rustic setting.

Fantastic, authentic Sri Lankan food served on the beach, with a smile! Chootys place is very reasonably priced compared to other places. Chooty is a really lovely guy who is very friendly as are the guys who work there with him.

Работают с пляжа, входа с дороги нет. Заказали здесь котту и он был плох. Видимо они больше работают вечером на пляже. Днём как будто не готовы. Сервис хороший. Недорого

Взяла самый дорогой салат с авокадо, принесли то, что есть невозможно. Тертая морковка, капуста, рисовая лапша, авокадо и куча майонеза. Разочарована, не понимаю откуда такие отзывы
На англ не смогли составляющие салата назвать(

The restaurant is closed for about 2 weeks (we visited 15th Sept 2023, Chooty said around 30th sept 2023 or earlier they will open).
Chooty himself (KD) met us anyway and showed us through his place and to the beach, his son was very cute and KD is also a surf teacher too, I expect he would be a good teacher with his kind/friendly/relaxed personality.
Even though we didn’t eat here, we still had a great time and loved meeting and chatting with KD!

Попасть к ним можно только со стороны пляжа, обстановка у бетонных столов не понравилась, решили обедать за столиком прямо около океана, ноги омывала вода, стол первое время пытался уплыть, но сам воткнул его в песок посильнее. Очень долго ждали заказ и сдачу. Еда по вкусу - так себе. Сок шикарный. Цены средние. Лежаки от этого заведения стоят 1000 рупий на двоих. Ставлю 4 только из-за вида

Собирались уже разочароваться. Фотки слишком красивые тут в картах. Никого нет, лежаки сложены, двор пустой. Всё таки заказали еду, принесли САМИ не острый Котту и карри (мы забыли сказать). Вкусно, сытно, по карману большинству👌
