Terrible seafood biryani I ever had in my life. The chef definitely don't know how to cook biryani. The biryani is very soggy and extremely spicy and my stomach started to burn and I started to sweat.This chef needs a different job. Definitely not coming back again.

A classy place for Sri Lankan Tamil dining experience with a diverse menu from surrounding regions. Tried the fried snapper as well as the Kerala style fish baked in banana leaf. Preferred the latter as it had a little more kick. Great food and service.

Everything was amazing! From food to service.We were very well taken care of, even though we were a large group.Favourite items: chicken 65, butter chicken, mutton curry, calamari appetizer, naan bread. Whatever you order, make sure you order all of these, too!Their puttu is very soft and fluffy. We got a plain paper dosa which was a huge hit with the kids. We didn't care much for the red sambal that came with it. The red curry and green sambal was delicious.All the flavours were very authentic to Tamil dishes!Looking forward to going back for the kothu roti.

Went there with my family. Very friendly service and fast. The kothu roti had a after taste, and had too much curry. The shirmp gravy and chicken 65 were good. And the psicy fries were excellent. Can do better for the kothu roti. The masala dosa was not good. Very plain.

First time at a halal sri lankan restaurant and the food was great. Ambience was really nice as well.Ordered the mutton rolls which were really good but pretty spicy so beware. Can’t really adjust spice levels. (4/5)Had the chicken bamboo biryani which had amazing flavours but were slightly undercooked. Was not a huge problem for me though. (4.5/5)Also ordered the crab srilankan curry which had such great flavours and spice. The only problem my friends and i had was cracking some of the shells as the tool they gave us were not very useful.Masala chai at the end was a great finish to our experience. Very good tasting and it was served in a miniature clay copy cup.

I am writing to express my disappointment with the food I received during my recent visit to your restaurant. I ordered chicken briyani which you provide as boneless with one boneless piece of chicken and two small uncooked tandoor or chicken 65. How are you even packing a box to go and only providing one piece of chicken and stating they are busy after waiting 25 minutes for the takeout.I understand that restaurants can get busy, but I was disappointed that my food was not up to the quality I have come to expect from your establishment. It was salty and had barely any meat and on top of that asked for extra raita they packed two containers with half the amount. Never have I witnessed such service from any restaurant.I would appreciate it if you could look into this matter and ensure that your chefs are cooking the food properly and proportionately. I would also appreciate it if you could provide me with an explanation of why my food was not up to the standard I expected.I hope that you can take my feedback constructively and use it to improve the quality of your food and service.Go elsewhere you can get better food and spend elsewhere.

This restaurant specializes in Sri lanken food and Indian food! You will find a lot of Indian food dishes here but on top of that, it’s the Sri Lankan food that makes them stand out. They have humongous dosas, curries, bamboo biryani and many more dishes. Bamboo biryani is biryani cooked in a bamboo! Really different from anywhere I’ve been to.

Been going here for years because they had the best garlic naan, the prices were average, and people are friendly. Last time I went the garlic naan was very dry and crunchy, the portion was bigger, but it was the worst naan I ever had. The prices increased a lot compared to other places, $8.40 for a mango shake? Will not go back again, the people are still nice, but the food quality for the price is not worth it anymore.

I really enjoyed eating here with traditional Sri Lankan cuisine. The chicken 65 was exceptionally delicious, especially when paired with their spicy mustard sauce. The biryani was also a standout dish, and the rice alone had an incredible flavor. The only downside was their kothu roti, which had a wet and soggy texture instead of being dry, as it should be. This affected the taste for me, but overall it was still a good meal. The ambiance of the restaurant was pleasant and enjoyable, and the servers were very friendly. I would definitely recommend this place.

Such a wonderful place to get amazing South Indian/Tamil food. Star of the show was without a doubt the Masala dosa. Cannot recommend this enough! Super crispy and all round perfection.The kothu roti on the other hand was a bit of a disappointment— too runny/too much curry and too spicy too compared to everything else. Also ordered the puttu with fried fish. Only came with one piece while I believe the menu said two pieces. The egg with herbs was perfect!Would revisit again but wouldn’t reorder the kothu roti personally.
