I came to Dhammika hoping the food would be great as it had 4 star reviews but I can tell you the food was not authentic, it felt like some random person cooked it rather than a professional chef.The food was bland and required salt, I’m a Sri Lankan and can tell you the food was not authentic at all. I paid £67.44 for two people and 12.5% service charge.The toilet was so dirty and the restaurant wasn’t even kept well, I would have expected a better atmosphere for that service charge.The only good thing was the lady who served, she was really nice.The quality of food, atmosphere and the interior was not worth the money to pay £67 for two people.I had the devilled prawns which was £10.99 but only had 5 prawns! For the price I paid I expected better. If I wanted this low quality I would have gone to a normal takeaway place which actually would have tasted better.

One of the best in London and a must try place!!!! after a London trip we struggled a lot to get some decent food in our tight budget, most of the restaurants were disappointing…..Finally when we are about to leave we visited this place…the food was awesome, Biriyani each variety tasted really good and different…..We ( a group of 9 people ) all wanted see and appreciate the cook and we met him. As expected an Indian humble guy who know the magic of spices!!!!!! Thanks a lot

My first visit in a year. Delighted with my meal and the service. Improved my rating. A year ago, I was disappointed. This year everything exceeded my expectations. Had a great visit and will be back again as soon as possible and write a more detailed review.

I had the best experience today. The food was really delicious specially the Devi chicken. Very minimalist spices and staff were also very friendly. She helped us to pick the most selling dish and not gonna lie, it was outstanding. Thanks for all making my tummy better lol. Everything was amazing. Will definitely visit again.

Absolutely delicious. The roti is a must.

Little gem nearby the attractions... very tasty Sri Lankan food and the portions are in a good size and a great value for money! Staff is very friendly and helpful as well. Highly recommended for anyone and surely a revisit during another time in London!

The food was excellent and was delivered quite quickly but the staff were a bit inattentive as we had to wait about 15 minutes for the bill after we asked multiple times. It was quite irritating as we were running late and the staff were unresponsive after multiple requests.

Fantastic experience! The restaurant had a charming atmosphere with affordable price and the staff's were incredibly attentive. The tastes of all food was absolutely delicious, with a wide variety of options that satisfied every plate. We 9+2 kids visited here after the final day of London Trip. We tried foods from different Indian restaurants, but it was disappointing. We tried different foods from here each gives different tastes. At last, we called the chef for a appreciation, a kind man.Highly recommend this restaurant for an unforgettable Indian dining experience.
