Highlights from the savory side of the menu: an orange-colored manioc curry , a rich pork "black"curry with toasted spices, a coconut-and-kale sambal , pineapple curry , and a boiled egg curry . Read more
Super authentic Sri Lankan restaurant ! The buffet is a must try! Mmmm still reminiscing the different curry flavors :D
So many interesting things to try during their weekend buffet (cash only-$14). Don't forget their pudding dessert bar either
Great value buffet on the weekends. The interior is really cool and feels like you're in Sri Lanka.
You will enjoy the food and decor at this almost magical place.The service is good and they have buffet on Sunday
Sunday has a buffet where you can sample several of the Sri Lankan cuisine . Food is deliciously spiced & reasonable. Plenty of authentic atmosphere
Buffet has so many options! Egg curry , pineapple curry and kale w/coconut! Definitely try a hopper! Love the decor.
The food and ambiance is incredibly delightful. Authentic Sri Lankan.
Owners/staff were very friendly , food was delicious and beautifully presented and the decor/atmosphere was gorgeous! Try the Lamprais - it is the house specialty for a reason :)
This place is just really fantastic. Lovely service, friendly owner and the food and presentation of the food is amazing. I feel like I'm at the Sri Lanken pavillion at Epcot when I dine here!
SuperVegan's Patrick Kwan says this place is awesome and super vegan-friendly, including their weekend buffets
The $12 Sunday buffet is a standout with 20-odd dishes held warm in clay pots , enough variety to send you back for a third helping.
Amazing atmosphere and great food. You really feel like you’re in Sri Lanka!
