Why it matters
Why Sea View, Taj Bentota is worth your time
Resort dining is the easiest option for older travellers who want comfortable seating, service and predictable hygiene, and it keeps Indian dishes within reach of a Sri Lankan coast holiday.
It is also the priciest option here by a clear margin. For vegetarians the limited menu is the trade-off, so use it for a special evening rather than as your daily meal. Because I could open only one source for it, check the menu and prices with the hotel before you commit the family to dinner there.

How to experience it
TravelTriangle lists Sea View as the multi-cuisine restaurant at the Taj Bentota, serving continental, Indian and fusion food, with lobster and lamb as signature dishes. It opens after sunset.
The same page says vegetarian options are limited, so Indian vegetarian families should call ahead and ask the chef what can be prepared. Do not assume Jain or no-onion cooking; ask directly.
As a hotel restaurant it suits an occasion dinner rather than a casual meal. Book ahead, ask about dress expectations, and arrange transport back, since late tuk-tuks can be hard to find.
