A truly delightful, unpretentious restaurant that is still standing after 26 years of trading in Negombo. This in itself, is testament to consistency in delivery of food and service standards.

Disregard any silly comments from past diners referring to limited vegan options, come here for a steak, simply because it's the best you're going to get in the area.

Local beef is very difficult to work with and is often tough and sinewy. Not so, here at Bijou! Succulent, melt-in-the-mouth steak served with a thick, warm peppery sauce accompanied by french fries and tasty little fresh salad on the side.

Beer is served in cold glasses with the accompanying bottle being wrapped in a cooling sleeve. I test anyone to try to find a similar cold beer and steak further down the coast of Sri Lanka, Galle included!

Hats off to Bijou, I will be back for more.

While staying at the Dickman resort, we were able to order home delivery from Bijou on recommendation from the staff. My wife said the filler was one of the best she's ever had. Perfectly tender, melt in the mouth and lovely Bernaise sauce. I am vegan and ordered from Lords, which suited me fine.
On our return to Negombo, my wife insisted we go to the restaurant for another steak. The service was excellent and the steak as good as before. Unfortunately my options were pasta or chips and salad, but for regular people, Bijou would be an excellent choice.
