Review & Rating
Was my first time going here. It's like stepping into a little restaurant in Sri Lanka , so many artifacts and just a cozy setting. The food was delicious, had the buffet, lots of choices.. Will definitely go back.
We had the buffet. Selection was pretty good and food was hot and freshly made. Excellent atmosphere. Quiet and nicely decorated interior. Give it a try.
The decor is like a museum of Buddhist art. Food is excellent. I go regularly.
Gorgeous atmosphere with delicious, flavorful food. The lamb biriyani was great with just the right amount of spice. I'm looking forward to eating here again and I'll be bringing some friends!
The weekend buffet is exceptionally good. The place itself is welcome and warm, as are the staff. Great experience.
I very much enjoyed the food and customer service, excellent location nearby to my apartment. The employees are always nice. Will come back again.
Love this place. I had Sri Lanka food for the first time and it was amazing! I tried everything from the Buffet and it was all great. They have plenty of vegan options (including dessert) and hot red sauce and chillies if you like spicy. All for less than $15....bring your own bottle, they don't serve alcohol.
Great food, great decor. Well worth the hour plus drive I have to get there...
I understand they are known for their weekend buffet, but we were here on a weekday. It was empty except for us. I think anyone should go here once for the decor/experience if nothing else. You can sit in one spot and just keep noticing more things covering the walls. The food was very similar to Indian food (maybe it's a subcategory of Indian; I don't know). I thought it was decently good; my mother thought it was better than any Indian restaurant she has tried. My wife thought it was really good as well. This place is an experience.
Beautiful decor and unique but food was okay. Felt it was catered to more of an American crowd. I have had Sri lankan food in the past and it missed those spicy flavors.
Wife and daughter liked it well enough. Visited on the weekend when buffet was available. Food was definitely authentic and the buffet had a decent variety. Impressive decor, cozy room. Friendly service, very nice staff. Couple things to note: -menu is still available on weekends -buffet is cash-only on the weekend -incense aroma is very strong, if you're sensitive to things like that
