Bad service, very oily food, variety in the menu but most of the dishes have exact same food.

There was onion skin left in food, tea had the seeds floating on top. Not a good experience. Place, location, price and atmosphere is good though, wish the food was freshly prepared and service was a bit better. Never going there again for sure.

I was enthralled by their vegan kotthu, which is basically impossible to find where I'm from, so I…read moredecided to give them a try. They have a nice selection of all vegan items (9 items of varying sizes and priced), plus the kotthu and fried rice. I got their vegan kotthu (£8), parippu (dhal; £4.50), and kale & cabbage sambol (£4). Everything was great, especially the kotthu, which I asked for them to amp up in spiciness -- perfectly done. The spice mixture was fantastic, and the addition of little soya meat balls added another nice dimension to the texture. The other two dishes were good too: the dhal was creamier than an Indian one, with a slightly different spice mix -- very nice; and the sambol was also super nice. Service was friendly but slow; it took about 10 minutes for the server to notice me after being seated -- I had to flag her down. But after that, things went smoothly. I don't know what previous reviewers from 2019 were on about, but, either things have changed, or they don't know what they're talking about! All in all, delicious vegan-friendly Sri Lankan food. I would definitely return, especially for the kotthu.

A very disappointing meal…read more The spicy button mushrooms tasted like the mushrooms came from a can, and they quickly lost whatever crispy texture they had after sitting in a puddle of oil in a bowl. The dish also came with a slightly sweet onion relish that didn't go well with the flavor of the dish. The veggie Kottu paratha had some pieces of paratha that tasted a bit raw, and the dish was overall a bit bland. After asking for some chili sauce and dumping the bulk of what I was given into the dish, it was tolerable flavor-wise (still not crispy or fresh tasting). The vegetarian hoppers were nice at first, but I think that was just in comparison with everything else. It was a bit dry after a couple bites, and not very crispy. I wish I'd just shared one with my husband, I ended up not finishing my hopper. Maybe their meat is better, but after striking out on 3 dishes, I'm not inclined to continue trying my luck. The best part of the meal was the drink, I got the drunken Sri Lankan, which had a spicy ginger flavor and came in an elephant mug. No exceptional flavors, but a decent drink overall.
