Go here if you want local food at a great price. They offer Sri Lanka but also Indian cosine.The waiters are very attentive, seeing to your needs. Washing room cleanliness could be improved and the location is very close to the street, so be aware of that.

The food was well prepared and tasty. Traditional food at reasonable prices. It was nice to find a simple plate of vegetables while traveling. Freshly made juices were delicious.

Took vegetable rotti and omlet take away, rotti was very tasty with potato and other ingredients inside. One portion is quite enough to have a snack.

Raha was an incredible spot for authentic Sri Lankan food in Ella. The flavors were rich and truly representative of the local cuisine. What stood out most was how accommodating they were with spice levels, making sure everyone at our table got exactly what they preferred. The service was outstanding—warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. It’s the kind of place that makes you feel at home while serving up delicious food. If you’re in Ella, we highly recommend stopping by!

It is a cheaper restaurant for Ella standards. We had their Raha special Kottu, which was amazing and deviled vegetables which we wanted to try. We also had coconut honey rotti, also very good.
