But it's not a big gripe because the food is always well seasoned even if it isn't peppery.

Great service and friendly staff at this Sri Lankan restaurant…read more The manager/owner used to be a chef at the UN after traveling the world for various stints after leaving Sri Lanka at age 25. He will fill you with his wealth of knowledge of Sri Lankan food as well as how his food is pure and wholesome. Food was very good. I had Sri Lankan rice entree specialty dish. Except for the the shrimp tasting like dried shrimp - which I hate with a passion the rest of the dish was pretty good. No complaints from my other guests who enjoyed their meals. The dessert was great. They have both vegetarian (including goat, beef, pork, shrimp, squid, and chicken) and non-vegetarian options. It fell short of five stars for two reasons: 1. the dried shrimp or dried fish taste in the dish (shimp, calamari, and chicken); and 2. the moderately high prices (I can only compare to prices at Indian restaurants in the city, and what people are typically paying for the same portion size at casual sit down restaurants) Since we don't frequent this location often it is a treat to stop by every once in awhile and introduce my friends to it. If you are on a budget and consume large volumes of food to be full, this is most likely a one off or a place you may want to skip. Otherwise, enjoy it. On premise parking lot and seems ADA compliant. It looks like it is in a house, but inside it is comfortable and casual. It appears there is allot more local customers than visitors from out of town. The interior plays tourist information on Sri Lanka while the interior is also decorated in culturally appropriate ascents. We were there on a Saturday for dinner and the space was fairly empty - perhaps two other tables occupied. It is in sort of a remote area outside the main drag of Beacon most are familiar with (not within reasonable walking distance). It's worth a try, especially if you are interested in healthier forms of food (ingredients).

This food truck is awesome. I had the jackfruit curry with a small side of white rice...also served with a few tortilla chips and some really wonderful hot relish.

And I have ordered a few of their appetizers each time I have ordered. Next few times I will order their dishes/dinners, because they sound so good. But the last appetizer I ordered was their patisse with chicken (also have tuna and veggie ) cooked with potatoes as well. They remind me of an empanada, fried to perfection! And I ordered the 5 for $10. They also have 2 for $5. But definitely get the order of 5! Trust me, so delicious and not greasy. It does have bit of heat to it, but absolutely delicious! Bring an order to your next gathering, you will be everyone's favorite guest. I have had their chicken rolls, also very tasty and it is fried, but not greasy at all, so flavorful. And if you can handle a bit of spice, you got to order their shrimp chili paste,4 oz,roasted crushed shrimp mixed with crushed red pepper & tamarind. (for all my south East Asians, it's Like jeow bong!) for only $5! And for desert you must try their watalappan, an egg custard baked with coconut milk.

I hardly review anything these days, and perhaps people will just pass up this review, but they…read moreshouldn't pass up this restaurant. I still love eating out, but it's fairly rare that I'm actually surprised by a dish that I ordered. The honey inflected cauliflower dish with just a hint of garlic was the marked improvement on Gobi Manchurian that I didn't know I needed in my life. It's Gobi Honey Garlic on the menu. Order it. I know I plan to once more before I leave Connecticut. This dish is great because it carries a number of flavors I would expect to contrast and somehow marries them perfectly. I've been eating cauliflower dishes for years with fried Lebanese cauliflower and an absolutely decadent version in a random Mexico City restaurant being my favorites. This one lands directly squarely between those preparations as my second favorite all time (Tetetlan is still the overall winner). I only ordered the blackened pork curry as a main dish and it was tasty in its own right. On another visit, I'd like to savor even more dishes and possibly try their crab curry. Everything coming out of that kitchen was absolute fire. So far, this has been my favorite dining experience in the entire state of Connecticut. Sure, it's not as fancy as Olea, or maybe as iconic as a lobster roll at Captain Scott's, but it's definitely the best rendition of Sri Lankan cuisine I have found in the States. I'm so glad I went here.

The menu offers a very broad list of Regional Indian Cuisine. Lamb, goat, chicken, seafood, variety of basmati rices and biryani, vegetarian dishes, dosa, tandoori, curries, Indo Chinese, a dozen different types of naan and kulchas. The four stars are for the food only. We tried the cilantro, chicken soup and the onion PAKODA, fritters, which were outstanding, the Indo Chinese vegetable fried rice was excellent, Kodi vapudu very spicy dry rub with green chilies. It was a bit different than I've had before with the addition of cashews and dark meat instead of white meat, but it was spicy and good. Ambiance is basic with fun Bollywood movies and music in the background and on the TV, clean and organized. But apparently they do a ton of takeout rather than dine in. The service was by the the owner who was incredibly friendly, very hospitable, enthusiastic about the regional cuisine and very knowledgeable about all of the dishes and their preparation.

EXCELLENT FOOD AND SERVICE!!! My wife and I had dinner at…read moreUtsav, Vernon, CT. a few nights ago. To start, we shared a bowl of the Mulligatawny soup. Nice and hot, and very flavorful, but nicely balanced. Get this. Outstanding. Then we had Chicken Chettinad (between medium and Hot), and Chicken Korma (also between medium and hot). Both incredible. So good, and each richly spiced, and both different, again nicely balanced, and very spicy, just the way we like it. Quite hot, but not too hot. Perfect! We also had the ground lamb and peas stuffed Naan. Delicious!! Joseph is a master chef, and also the owner. He came out and talked with us upon our request. I told him I couldn't believe the quality of his chicken chunks. Very big, tender, flaky, moist.. amazing. He told us he buys the premium chicken, which is more expensive, but the result is notable. Nice guy. Jino waited on us. He was respectful, friendly, knowledgable. Excellent service. Lastly, we shared a small Indian desert called Kulfi. Perfect way to end an excellent (every bite delicious) dinner. PS: One more thing. People seem to complain in previous reviews about the prices. I disagree. The entrees are larger than normal, the ingredients are best quality, the cooking is masterful. I think the food is a good deal, all things considered. Truly one of the best Indian restaurants we've eaten at.. ever, and we are Indian food fanatics.

Tried again, better but still lacking…read more We decided to try them again. Their prices are slightly lower, which is good to see. Quality is still good, the flavors are dialed in and consistently well balanced. The rice and poori were underwhelming. Poori was cold and rice was not fresh. The curry was flavorful, order mild, had a little spice due to peppercorns which was pleasant. Spinach cups were tasty, and kebab platter came out sizzling. Meats were tender, had good levels of seasoning, and were great with the sweet tomato sauce. Price for everything came out to 100, which was an appetizer, two mains, and two breads. Still pricy, but quality is still high as well. Despite the stumbles, it's good to see them improving. It's still kinda pricy for the area, but the quality is still pretty good too. Would recommend they update the menu and clairify their "mandatory 22% gratuities on parties of 2 or more" on the bottom of the menu. Didn't get charged that, and if someone read that without context then that could be an immediate red flag. It's good food at a price
