Blue Orbit at Colombo Lotus Tower Redefines Fine Dining with Global Flavours and a Moving Experience

Blue Orbit by Citrus, Sri Lanka’s first revolving restaurant located at the iconic Colombo Lotus  Tower, is setting a new benchmark in the country’s culinary landscape. Merging exquisite  cuisine with sweeping, panoramic views, Blue Orbit delivers a unique experience that moves,  both literally and emotionally. 

The restaurant’s concept revolves around a curated journey through seven distinct global  cuisines. Italian, Indian, Sri Lankan, Japanese, Middle Eastern, Western, and Chinese. Every  dish is thoughtfully crafted to reflect the authenticity of its origin while infusing a touch of  creativity and modern flair. The menu is a celebration of flavours from across the world,  featuring standout offerings such as the Sushi Tacos, a modern reinterpretation of street food  with refined Japanese notes and the Butter Chicken Masala, an all-time favourite that balances  aromatic spices in a rich, silky gravy. 

The Lamb Lasagna, in particular, has become a talking point among diners. A comforting  classic elevated with layers of spiced lamb ragu and béchamel. The Blue Orbit culinary team  worked closely with their Italian cuisine specialist to fine-tune the texture, timing, and flavour  profile of this dish, creating a nostalgic yet elevated experience that resonates with comfort and  indulgence. It’s this commitment to innovation and authenticity that makes Blue Orbit more  than a restaurant. 

As guests savour these culinary creations, the restaurant itself slowly rotates 360 degrees,  offering changing perspectives of Colombo’s skyline and beyond, from cityscapes to sunset  views. This seamless integration of movement, ambiance, and flavour underscores Blue Orbit’s  promise of “a dining experience that moves.” The theatrical element of a revolving view adds  a sensory layer to each course, making every moment at Blue Orbit feel dynamic and  immersive. 

Priced at LKR 9,000 NETT per person, the international buffet offers exceptional value for a  world class experience. For those looking to elevate their evening further, an unlimited beer  package is available with the buffet at just LKR 9,500 NETT per person. 

Beyond the menu, the restaurant’s commitment to hospitality is evident from the moment  guests arrive. From the host to the restaurant manager, every team member is trained not just  in service, but in genuine hospitality. Whether it’s a first-time visit or a special celebration,  Blue Orbit ensures that every guest feels welcomed, cared for, and immersed in a world-class  dining experience.
