Food was good, service generally OK but they didnt have my first choice of Sri Lankan beer and then forgot that they hadn’t chilled yet=the one they offered to me. And it took a followup from me to find this all out after 20 minutes… And a bit noisy for my liking.

Excellent food and flavours, albeit very mildly spiced (heat) The lamb dish was excellent but a tiny serve for the price, must have been barely 70-80g of meat

Great food and genuinely good service. Ambience inside is good, but I am thankful we didn't choose outside.

Food was delicious, although very rich. Lots of coconut cream in all dishes, even though we tried to select some without! Small plates , octopus and special ceviche styled snapper were delicious. Vegetable dish of green beans was slightly disappointing - beans seemed quite shrivelled, but sauce was good. Service was slow but a lovely server.
