We were part of an Intrepid tour and our tour leader took us to this restaurant.
Can honestly say it was a truly wonderful meal! All freshly cooked, so many delicious & different dishes to eat....cooked with many ingredients grown in the owners garden --just mouth-watering! I went up for seconds!
Loved the 'writing on the wall' ( or ceiling!) --- the owner is great, so enthusiastic & genuine. Every success to you my friend, you so deserve it!

One word to describe this place - perfect! Lots of different curries & dishes to try, all cooked fresh and using ingredients from the garden outside. Lovely view over the fields and the nicest host & family. Completely worth the short drive from Polonnaruwa (or anywhere else to be honest!).

Jaga Food is slightly off the main road in amongst the rice fields but this makes for an authentic dining experience! The ten or so different curries we tried we delicious and it was great to see the local ingredients that had been used! The four of us dining all agreed that Jaga Food produced some of the best curries we had tasted during our two weeks in Sri Lanka. Nalin was full of energy, a wonderful host!

We had a dinner at Jaga food and it was definitely the best dinner we had at Sri Lanka. The food was fresh and sooo tasty, everything organic from the owners garden. Not only the food was delicious, but the owner was extremely humble and nice, he even took us to our hotel with his tuk tuk and made us very pleasant company. This kind of hospitality is rare nowadays... I hope to come back one day. Thank you for having us! Ayubowan

As part of an intrepid tour we were hosted for dinner - family were very welcoming and we all enjoyed trying the variety of dishes. Second helping of dessert was offered too! Lovely setting and would have been great to appreciate the garden by returning in the day. We left our mark with a message on the ceiling and liked reading the notes from other travellers
