My wife and I had high expectations for this restaurant but we were thoroughly disappointed.
We were greeted and seated quickly and the host and servers were friendly. Unfortunately the food is not great.
We had the samosas to start along with a glass of wine each. The samosas were actually good. A little different take on them in a phyllo pastry. They were not greasy at all. A chutney was served with them that also was good.
Our expectations were completely dashed with the main courses. I had lamb meatballs in a curry and my wife had the Sri Lankan beef. Neither dish tasted bad but is just a thin curry, white rice and meat. Nothing inspiring at all to the dish. The presentation is just as bland. The spice level of medium was a high medium to say the least. My lamb meatballs were without any flavor.
We also had some naan with the meal which had the consistency of a wet rag. Absolutely the worst naan I’ve ever had.
Having eaten good Sri Lankan food in China and great Indian food all over the world including India, this all fell flat. The main course was just below average.
Borderline three stars because the food was not inedible and the samosas and service was good. But closer to a 2.5 star experience. We unfortunately will not return.
This is another case in my opinion of a well over rated restaurant. It has become increasingly difficult for me to believe most reviews. Unfortunately people just love to hit that 4 and 5 star button for average food.
