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.

They have a wide verity of waffles and some other tasty options as well. My only recommendation would be to try to be a bit more innovative ad may be bring in some bold unique flavour than the usual old chocolate and strawberries and cream kind a stuff. Place and its ambience is very nice Staff is also very pleasant. Overall a good place to have a quick bits while reading a book or having a chat with a long lost friend.

Waffle Cafe? In Sri Lanka? Never heard of it. So ok we pile into two cars and off we go now quite eager to consume perfectly made Waffles loaded with Maple Syrup? What else?
Well it was a tiny place, tiny parking space, but finally we are here. Unfortunately they seemed to have a very very busy few days, coupled with holidays, so no maple syrup :-( there were a stream of guests walking in. Order was somewhat delayed, but hey!!! We are here with family we had a lovely evening.

Like the interior of the restaurant. Great to have a quick snack. Unfortunately closed in the afternoon from 3pm to 6pm. Taste excellent but should serve hot....

We tried two savoury and sweet waffles. Both were very good, and the savoury (prawns) one was better than expected. Go for two savoury waffles than one, it's cheap with the discounted prices. Friendly service.

This is a new outlet conveniently located at a wide junction on a otherwise narrow and busy connecting road. There is space in front to park 2 to 3 cars.
As the name goes it's just waffles - sweet and savory - and also two varieties; soft and hard Belgian. The sweet waffles come with artificial maple syrup or various other toppings. They are all standard ready made toppings straight from commercial dispensers. It's all comfort food. Nothing healthy or organic.
The savory waffles are Chicken, Prawn or Vegetarian. So watch out for the Ham. It's not real ham it's chicken spam. There's no bacon either.
They have coffee and milk shakes for drinks. The coffee is good and quite cheap at 300/- a cup even for cappuccino. However the milk is from a open UHT pack in the fridge. Before you order ask to see the milk carton and satisfy yourself that it hasn't been open for too long. I had a loose motion that connected up with my cappuccino there.
Preparation takes forever but although there is no Wifi, it's a OK space with air-conditioning to catch-up with a friend while they get the act together. Lots of staff, far too many in fact and the staff cost may force them to shut down quite soon. It's impossible for an outlet of that size to generate enough income to sustain so many people. The team is guided and supervised by a hands on guy who is also good at PR.
The prices on the menu are downright honest and includes all taxes and they don't add a charge for serving.

This is a new restaurant, a little bit out of town, in Ethul Kotte. The waffles are great - authentic, and cooked just how waffles should be. Portions are good-sized, and the toppings are tasty. It's not a large menu, but more than adequate, with a good enough range of chicken, vegetarian and seafood options, and various chocolatey-fudgey-caramely-fruity dessert choices. The savouries are Brussels waffles, and the sweets are Liege waffles. The service was ultra-friendly, and pretty efficient - the wait for food was not too long at all (about 10 mins), and the order came exactly as asked for. Price is also pretty OK: lunch for two (each had a sweet and a savoury plus drinks) came to around LKR2500 (USD 16). The building is not very prepossessing - basically a shopfront restaurant with maybe 12-15 tables inside, but they've done what they can with the décor to make it look pleasant. Simple, wooden tables, one saffron wall, arty photos of waffles on the wall. And neat, tidy and clean. There is parking for 4-5 cars out front.
