Customer Reviews
What a hidden gem!! This place has the best Sri Lankan food I've tried in the states. The interior is clean and the staffs are friendly. I read their webpage on the story of the restaurant. It is own by a Sri Lankan couple - one Singhalese and one Tamil. Their love represents the union of the two groups of folks who had long lasting conflict and tension in the country. At this restaurant, you can experience the culinary fusion of the two distinct tradition. We ordered: - mutton roll 5/5 - calamari lamprais 6/5 AMAZING!! - deviled king fish 5/5 Their mutton roll is stuffed with filling - I love how thin the crust is, you really get a taste of the chunky juicy protein. The lamprais is infused with the aromantic banana leaf, along with the colorful and spice
Out of the three srilankan restaurants tried so far, this is my favorite. Excellent service and Hats Off to the chef. I am from Kerala, India, and have to say, the dishes were very similar to Kerala and Tamil Nadu cuisine (Pittu[Puttu]& Stringhopper ( [Idiyappam]. Following were the dishes that we ordered and I would definitely recommend to everyone. Also I did go mild on the spice levels. Lamprais, Kothu Roti, Deviled Chicken, Island Fried Rice, Chicken Biriyani. The desert Watallapam is excellent.
The food was delicious and the customer service was exceptional. Both workers were so kind and pleasant. Definitely will be back and recommend ! It’s so hard to find good Sri Lankan food around, but this place definitely meets my expectations.
I've been a few times with differing group sizes. Everything I've had here has been top-notch. My favorites so far are the goat bone soup, the lamprais, and the deviled dishes. The goat bone soup blew me away when I first tasted it. Really hearty and fragrant. The lamprais (forgot to take a picture) is also great, always comforting and the toppings are all lovely.
Food was excellent! Certainly lives up to the name "Spicy Lanka" very flavorful and well seasoned food. 100% recommend taking friends here for a spicy food challenge or try for lunch if youre in the area!
