Kessel Kole is a modestly priced Sri Lankan restaurant located on Pagoda Road in Colombo. It caters to those seeking traditional Sri Lankan flavors within a reasonable budget and is conveniently open every day from early morning until late at night, providing ample opportunity for visitors to enjoy its offerings.
However, the establishment's reputation seems to be a mix of impressions based on older reviews left around a decade ago. Some guests used to highlight the excellent taste and value for money, while feedback also suggested an inconsistency in food quality and service. There are mentions of the curries lacking flavor and rice being dry in more recent comments, contrasting earlier positive experiences.
Although the owner is noted to be friendly and attentive, the staff's performance might vary, potentially due to limited training. It’s important to note that there is no current information available regarding any improvements or changes since these guest reviews were written. For those visiting the bustling area of Nugegoda, Kessel Kole may still offer a satisfactory dining option, although it may not consistently meet the expectations for every visitor.

The food in this place used to be mouth watering and there was a delicious flavor in all the curries. But now the standard has dropped the curries have no taste, the rice is dry like eating plain weet grains. They used to serve a yummy yellow rice for Rs.180/- better than which is served at DBU but now it has hiked up to Rs.250/- maybe the extra charge for the banana leaf and no flavor. But the owner is very friendly and makes sure you are well looked after if he is there, if not the staff is a little under trained.
