I was a European traveller who who was in SL for couple of weeks who wanted a change from having typical (good) Sri Lankan food for five days so, decided to try this place out. We (Five of us) arrived a little late on a Friday night for dinner without pre-booking. The place was packed with diners however, the very helpful and efficient staff found a nice seating area for us within ten minutes or so. There was an excellent choice of dishes on the menu and despite the fact that it was a very busy night, our order was served fairly swiftly. The food tasted great and in my personal opinion, better Indian food than what you would typically get in a good quality Indian restaurant in London. The ambience was absolutely wonderful -there was a large water feature in right middle of the venue and light levels were perfect too. There was live Sri Lankan classical music being played throughout the evening. The staff were very helpful and efficient. Although the the waiting staff were local, we learnt that the chef was actually Indian.The price was not the cheapest but in my experience, it has been very good value for the money (the bill was just over 12 thousand SL Rupees for five of us including a couple of drinks. In hindsight, this was truly a memorable and satisfying dining experience and i would go as far as saying that (as a frequent global traveller), one of the best dining experience I have had.
