    Lamprais Lamb before opening
    Yierou M.

    First time trying Sri Lanka food! It's a cross between Indian and South Asian cuisine so if you love them both, you will definitely like this place. I ordered a few items to try, one of their popular items is Lamprais, a rice dish with choice of protein and different sides wrapped into a banana leaf "packet" and baked...I got the lamb and it was so flavorful and spicy! Kinda like a spicy curry lamb biryani. Now I want to try the other proteins to see if the taste is different...either way, I know I will love it! Also got the fish spring rolls...I know I know, sounds weird but intriguing lol. So it was crispy like a spring rolls, the skin was thick more like an egg roll, filling texture was more on the mushy side, not diced up or chunky, so fair warning. It actually tasted good but had to get used to the texture. Last, I got the coconut custard dessert... love anything coconut but this wasn't it. I didn't taste any coconut and it was super sweet and kinda soggy versus a firm custard. Very cardamommy lol if that's a word hahaha. Not for me. So I would definitely go back for more Lamprais real soon...will probably just stick with that!

    Awesome food, relaxed service, open ambience with lots of seating. This new Sri Lankan eatery has great food with wonderful vegetarian options.. Definitely give it a try!

    New restaurant in Manassas on Liberia Avenue that you have to try. It's food from the heart of Sri Lanka. The flavors are amazing. We had the Lamprais and the Seafood Kotthu. For dessert we ordered the Kiri Pani. The food was delicious, the service was great and the restaurant has a contemporary style. I highly recommend Banana Leaf if you're looking for something different

    Banana Leaf was delish! I ordered to-go the chicken curry w three vegetables and it was so flavorful and a perfect spiciness to it.

    Lampri the special of the house

    Food is amazing, an explosion of flavors. This new gem opened recently and my hat is off to the chef! The lampri is full of veggies and different flavors, I also had the fresh ginger hot tea which was full of fresh ginger chunks.

    Caramel pudding

    The Sunday buffet is delicious. Also the food on the menu is fantastic. The place is spacious and carries has great ambiance.

    The food itself is fantastic!…read more But there is a glitch in the system... if you buy a $45 gift card [worth $50] on the web site, you can only redeem it in the restaurant. You'll get a code via email, but you still have to redeem that code IN the restaurant. I was expecting a electronic gift card. And since the restaurant is geared towards food delivery services and take out, when you redeem the gift card in the restaurant and order there it takes them FOREVER to get you your food. In my case it took more than half and hour from the time I ordered until I got my food; so I had to burn all that time sitting around in the restaurant, while other take out orders and delivery services got their food more quickly. The restaurant itself is clean, if a little dated.

    Yesterday, wasn't my first visit, but it was my first time eating in the restaurant…read more It is a very nice little place for being in a strip mall. It is clean and welcoming. We were greeted and chose to sit near the front of the restaurant. Our waitress was perfection. There is no other way to describe her consistent care. She was never over-bearing but always accessible. She brought over each course perfectly timed. The service alone would be worth another visit. The food. Holy cow, the food. It was delicious! We have been to several Indian restaurants in the area and were never quite satisfied. This restaurant is so good. The Naan alone deserves to be noticed. It was amazing. Everything we ordered was done well. I ordered the Mixed Grill Tandoori. My husband had the lamb vindaloo. It was so good. It is a little unassuming place in a strip mall, but definitely worth a visit.

    Ever since I first tried it when I was in college, Indian cuisine is my favorite. Because of that,…read moreI've been to a LOT of Indian restaurants over the years, and Lassan is easily in the top 3 for me. The food is always excellent. It has those above-and-beyond touches that let you know that extra care went into it: the meat and naan cooked in the tandoor oven always has just the right amount of brown; the vegetables have just the right amount of caramelization. The sauces are deep and flavorful. The gradation of spiciness is nicely linear -- you won't get surprised when you jump up one level. The plating and presentation is simple and delightful. There is quite a variety of mixed drinks on offer! My absolute favorite is the boozy chai. This one might be one of my favorite drinks of all time; it's very much like an apple cider with just the right kind of alcohol in it. It's warm, rich, deliciously spiced (not spicy, spiced), and it has a wonderful layer of foam on top. Definitely try this. To cap it all off, the service here is always impeccable. Good recommendations, excellent balance of presence and leaving us to our devices. We very much appreciate whenever we get to eat during Sujal's shift, so please pass along our thanks to him as well! This place is fantastic. I cannot praise it more. We will be moving away from the area in the coming months, and will be very sad to lose it has an option. If we're ever in the area again, we will not miss the opportunity to eat here! (For the record, I am not AI just because I used an em dash!)

    Heartfelt Review of Lassan Indian Cuisine…read more Lassan Indian Cuisine delivered an incredible experience that deserves to be celebrated. I stopped in for the lunch special, and it was fantastic from start to finish. The butter chicken was rich, comforting, and full of depth -- exactly the kind of dish that keeps you coming back. Paired with their perfectly warm, fragrant garlic naan, it turned into a full-on flavor explosion that made the whole meal unforgettable. Beyond the food, the service truly stood out. My server, Elish, was attentive, kind, and consistently checked in without ever feeling intrusive. That level of care made the meal feel even more special. Lassan is the kind of place that reminds you why you love dining out: fantastic food, genuine hospitality, and a sense of comfort that lingers long after the meal is over.
