New Asha Sri Lanka Restaurant

Sooo good! Came here with my family, and we ordered the mutton curry, chicken curry, chicken kottu roti, as well as some of their veggie and meat rolls. Delicious!! Though some was a little too spicy for my mother, she still found everything to be very tasty. Drinks were great too (a mango lassi, and two passion fruit juices). Service was so welcoming and lovely thanks to the owner, Viji. Makes me wish I had another stomach. We left very dated and with an order of dosa :)

We ended up stopping by and found this little gem. We spoke to the owner who was very kind and accomodating. She quickly fried us some shorteats and it was pretry good. We tried the egg fish rolls and the brought home some goodies (cutlets, veg roti and malu paan). They also have rice and curry menu too and kotthu. Didnt get a chance to try the kotthu. However we tried the rice/fish. With this you can select other vergetable dishes you like that they had made for the day. Recemmend anyone who is in the area to try this authentic srilanka restaurant. Also it was Halal. Which was a main thing for us.

Had the privilege to meet Mrs. Viji and try her incredible cooking last week. I've never tried Sri Lankan food, but I have to say, the Coconut Rice and Goat Curry would be present at my last meal after dining at New Asha. My buddy and I gave her the free pass to keep bringing food out until we told her to stop. She did not disappoint. Breads, Chutneys, Curries galore. It was a wonderful culinary experience. I stopped in while traveling because I read an article Bourdain posted a number of years back and had it on my list. Mrs. Viji told me a little of what he was like, which was a surreal experience, because she was working when he came. This place should be on everyone's road map. Take the 20 minute walk from the Ferry and enjoy the meal of a lifetime.

Great food—our fourth Sri Lankan restaurant on Staten Island. The owner, however, was overly enthusiastic about our order size. We planned on two dishes, but she insisted we start with one. After we finished, she questioned whether we were full when we tried to order the second. Not sure if it's because we look like light eaters or if she's just too friendly. If you are very hungry, be prepared for this interaction.

Everything about our experience was AMAZING. The food was ridiculously good, as in I'm going to be dreaming of it for days afterwards 😭 and viji was so kind and welcoming! When we asked for her recommendations she was ready to make us the perfect plate with a little mix of everything.
