Rise - Weligama

We ate here twice (and also stayed in the guesthouse upstairs). It is only open for dinner (6 10 pm). Run by a friendly foreign couple. The pizza is VERY good and the dough is homemade every day. Great sized portions, sauce is very tasty and dough is the perfect combination of chewy and crunchy. Pizzas are cooked in a traditional wood burning pizza oven in the back. We saw 3 vegan options on the menu for dinner and they had a pesto gnocchi special which could be made vegan. There is also bruschetta and a chocolate pizza, both of which are vegan (we ate then bruschetta, which was very tasty). There are two vegan savoury pizzas on the menu we had both. The Margherita pizza with garlic, oregano, and basil is a must try perfectly simple yet absolutely delicious! Homemade vegan (cashew) cheese can be added at an additional cost. The second vegan pizza is with a beetroot sauce, vegan cheese, tomatoes, rocket, and onion. This pizza was also delicious and highly recommended. There is also a vegan salad on the menu, which sounded quite hearty (we didn’t try it though). Pesto sauce is also vegan. One of the owners is vegetarian, so hopefully there will be more vegan options on the menu in the future! We would love to see a dedicated vegan menu! Updated from previous review on 2020 02 05

The homemade vegan cheese and pesto are excellent. the owner and the manager are super friendly and friendly. I wish there were more options, and it would be great if they had suppen as minenstrone. prices are more than reasonable for their quality. updated by previous review on 2021-12-24
