On August 12, 2026, I celebrated my birthday with a party of 15 people. In a last-minute dash, I had to find a restaurant that could accommodate such a large group visiting from overseas, and the staff at Wildish did just that—and so much more! Although our party arrived about 30 minutes late (which we were extremely apologetic for), the staff was incredibly understanding, accommodating, and friendly. At no point did they rush us or make us feel uncomfortable. Instead, they welcomed us warmly and gave our table their unwavering attention throughout the evening. Since Wildish is a BYOB restaurant, we brought our own wine. Not only were they happy to accommodate us, but they also provided wine glasses and even went the extra mile to chill our bottles for us. It was those small touches that made the experience feel so special. Now, the food—OMG, everything was DELICIOUS! The prawns, crab, fish, calamari, nachos, chicken tenders, fries… everything we ordered was amazing. I had two small children with me, and even they loved the food! I was also extremely impressed by the care the staff took with our meals, as several guests in my party had seafood allergies. They made sure to take the necessary precautions to avoid cross-contamination, which we truly appreciated. Lastly, the manager’s attention to detail absolutely floored me. He surprised me with a birthday cake, which was already such a thoughtful gesture, but he even took the time to record the surprise on video without me having to ask. Now I have that special moment captured forever. This was truly one of the best birthday celebrations I’ve ever had, and the staff at Wildish played such a huge part in making it memorable. From the hospitality and attention to detail to the incredible food, they did everything they could to make sure our evening ran smoothly and that we felt celebrated. Thank you to the entire Wildish team for making my birthday so special! I cannot wait to return the next time I visit Sri Lanka. ❤️

I had such a wonderful lunch at Wildish! I ordered the Lamb Sando, and it was absolutely delicious—packed with flavor and perfectly prepared. I also tried one of their mocktails, which was sweet, refreshing, and the perfect accompaniment to the meal. For dessert, I had the Coco Pearl, a sago dessert with fresh fruits, and it was honestly the best I’ve ever had. It was light, refreshing, and the perfect way to end the meal. The customer service made the experience even better. Hansika was incredibly kind, attentive, and prompt throughout our visit, making us feel so welcome. Highly recommend Wildish for both the amazing food and outstanding hospitality. I’ll definitely be coming back!

I came to wildish for the first time with my niece as we both really wanted to try the atmosphere here. Food was excellent, and the service was amazing. The staff was well presented. They were very helpful when choosing the menu what we needed. I’m so happy with everything at Wildish, Thank you 💚
Visited Wildish for a family dinner and it absolutely delivered. The menu does a brilliant job of blending familiar favorites with bold, local flavors. We tried the quesadillas, which were beautifully presented and perfectly crisp, served with top-tier guacamole and sour cream. The absolute standout, though, was the crab curry rich, deeply flavorful, and perfectly paired with fresh pol sambol and plenty of crusty roast paan to soak up every drop of the gravy. The atmosphere is great, the presentation is spot on, and the food speaks for itself. Highly recommended if you are looking for a unique and delicious meal in Colombo!
Had an incredible time at Wildish! 🙌 The food was brilliant, but the "LunuDehi" drink? Absolutely stunning — trust me, you need to try it! If you haven't been yet, put it on your list. And let's make sure we support the talented Sri Lankan entrepreneurs behind gems like this. They deserve it! 🇱🇰❤️
