Restaurants Serving Iftar In Colombo – 2021.

The holy month of Ramadan is here. It's a spiritual month to observe fasting, prayer and open the gates of forgiveness, kindness and faithful intention.

Despite the shadow of COVID-19, Colombo is functioning as usual – with certain limitations, of course. Unlike last year, many restaurants in the city are serving up iftar packs, meals and buffets, which aren't just limited to delivery or takeaway.

[This is a working list. If you're a restaurant with iftar specials, kindly write to us at ads@yamu.lk or call at 0760106226 (Dinesh).]
