Cheap and nasty food, the food was old and not authentic Sri Lankan. The service is just as bad and very rude (waiter by the name of Jaso) The food is extremely greasy and tastes of bad oil. Some of the food tasted as if it had been frozen and re-heated. This has to be one of the worst Sri Lankan dining experiences I have come across! I would not be going back here unless I were desperate.
Excellent food and good service too. The vada are nice and crispy. Sweet Vatil appam. The food is nicely spicy but not exceedingly spicy.
I came here not realising my wife used to come here all the time with her family when they were younger. Apparently it was excellent then and I agree it’s still very good. It’s easy to get carried away and assume because of the price you’re not getting much. Yeah that’s not the case. Three dishes and I struggled to hit 12. Ended up having to take half home so my wife could relive her child hood at dinner. Devilled Potatoes were excellent, the onion and seasoning really made it. Soft and flowery still. Aubergine curry was perhaps a bit oily , so go easy but very good to mix in Chicken kotthu I preferred over the mutton hoppers. The hoppers were hotter though I felt. Overall I really enjoyed my meal but over ate. Totally self inflicted pain but worth it.
Maybe I ordered poorly but i found that everything from the dcor to the service to the food (especially the food) was sub par. Won’t be back.
The late dinner that hits the spot, effortlessly. No muss, no fuss, just fantastic. The surprise win. Dosas and a generous portion of devilled prawns, that are just as they should be, perfectly cooked and smothered in onions and chillis. A heaping plate of meaty mutton kothu, with fresh and sweet seeni sambol. Quick and friendly. I’m inspired, nostalgic, comforted and regretful…that I didn’t order more food. And wondering if I need to make my way to Tooting Broadway more often.
Superb Evening. Having taken a mate who has experienced the cuisine at source, we were both delighted with the food here – absolutely superb. The service was also excellent with our waiter guiding us through the menu patiently.Would certainly recommend.
Wow what a Surprise. This Place has changed my opinion of a Take away Curry, I normally love them. However they disagree with me. I loved this and so did my body! Amazing value never seen such an amount of food for 20. It is spicy but not over the top, watch out for the little chills hidden away though. The Shop looks a little tired, Don’t let that put you off. The food is sensational. Will travel from far to go there again !!!
