This restaurant is in an unlikely spot next to a petrol station and not easily visible from the street but it is definitely worth seeking out. The food was excellent and the service was cheerful. Chicken curry, beef curry a special wok tossed rice dish, breads with complimentary Dahl. All very tasty. Will be crack to try more.
My husband & I dined at this restaurant last night, & it was such a delicious meal indeed..!Having dined on Sri Lankan for before, I was very much looking forwards to this dinner - & boy, I was not disappointed..!The menu is short, which makes ordering a much quicker/ simpler affair, as appetisers, we tried a portion of the stuffed pan rolls & roti pockets first - both filled with meats & potatoes... very flavourful combinations. As mains, we dined/shared the Kotthu Roti (beef) & The Yakas (pork)... these two dishes had so much flavour, the meats were cooked to perfection & both were loaded with vegetables... you can choose any meats/veg to go with your main of choice, as well as their spiciness level.The stand-out main for myself was The Yakas, which was served with a dark, thick & spicy gravy, & had so much flavour, it was hard to choose which of the two mains we preferred..!:-DAlthough a very small restaurant, the staff were very knowledgeable of their food, gave great suggestions as to which meats to choose from to go with the mains, & the restaurant was extremely clean & well presented. I highly recommend this restaurant to all who enjoy Sri Lankan food, spice, or want to try something new... We will DEFINITELY be dining here again..!Jess Parroodle
Absolutely brilliant Sri Lankan food. Surprisingly very authentic! The menu is limited - however everything we ate was fantastic!The meats (both the chicken and the beef curries) were very tender and so so tasty. The kothu rotti is the best that I have had. Looking forward to going back and trying their lunch menu.
Easy to find. Manager was welcoming and described everything that was in the meals because I hadn't tried Sri Lankan food before.Small menu but big serves. Will try again
