In love with the ambiance of this place . The staff is friendly and helpful, the food is tasty and the service is prompt and punctual as well . Highly recommended to all seeking a lovely dining experience.
Absolutely indulging platters and filling servings . The prices are reasonable, the ambience is beautiful, the staff is highly professional and friendly while the service is prompt and punctual too.
Enjoyed the ambience here, amazing choice of music and great atmosphere in general. Service was impeccable and food was very good. The reason why I feel it was very good and not amazing in my opinion is due to the lack of spice level but I appreciate this must accommodate customers from all walks of life with varying spice needs. I thoroughly enjoyed the Squid devil and would definitely come back, both for the food and the music. Highly recommended!
Creative Sri Lankan food in a trendy space. The Hoppers are like a better version of a dosa, served in a bowl with a sunny side up egg at the bottom. Surprisingly, they don't serve any accompaniments. It’s advisable to order a curry and a few chutneys to serve as dips. Service is fast and reliable. Highly recommended!
A personal favourite since years. If you are looking for comfort food during winters, this is the place to go! Slightly overpriced for the portion but the taste makes it worth it.
Went to the restaurant with no expectations, but as i got in i was impressed bu the design and flavor of the menu. We had chicken kari and buriani loved it. Well done
Fantastic food the Sri Lankan plus Kerala experience was great. The buttermilk was spicy the goat roti with chopped parantha was a nice starter along with the veg cutlet. This was followed by the chicken curry and the traditional hopper. I then had the pilau rice and the drumstick sambar which was excellent
Limited choice of authentic food from Sri Lanka. Whatever is there in the menu is worth trying as they are of high quality tasty items. Maybe they could have served few more fiery hot and spicy delicacies from that part of the world. One important thing to keep in mind is that this restaurant is no baby friendly as there are no comfortable seats for moms and babies. Avoidable restaurant for parents with small babies.
Fab place for Dosa’s , idli , Appam and many more authentic food , must visit if you are craving srilanka /South Indian Cusine . We had recently visited and were fully satisfied as coming from india getting to have such good food in the heart of Oxford street London , makes us very happy , Thanks a TonTeam Hoppers 🙏

What I thought of them?
This place is the only restaurant in London serving appams that I know off. It’s like a must go to if your an appam lover like me.
Came here on Sunday dinner in party of four. We decided to take their set menu at £42/person (normally for 8, but adjusted accordingly). More food than we can eat. And all full-flavor, though the bone marrow and curries were surprisingly under salted to my palate.
Service was excellent, and accommodating to our every needs. Place is small, cozy, and tastefully decorated.
I visited this restaurant on Friday with my family and it was fantastic. Their food is really authentic and the service is excellent.
The manager Ameya was very courteous and extremely helpful when it came to choosing dishes from their menu.
We ordered the Not buttered squid and Mutton rolls as starters which were both good dishes.
For the mains we ordered the Chicken curry and Prawn curry along with their signature hoppers. We also got the chilly cheese dosa which turned out to be much better than the ones we get at other restaurants.
Overall a fantastic experience and definitely worth another visit.
Authentic, unpretentious, and (oh so) delicious are the three words that come to mind when describing our experience at this restaurant. As soon as we arrived, we could tell from the menu that our taste buds were in for a treat. Fortunately, the friendly team was on hand to help us avoid over-ordering.
For starters, we enjoyed the Hot Butter Squid and Chicken Chettinadu Bites. The buttery squid and crispy chicken were a perfect combination of flavors and textures.
For our mains, we shared the Prawn Kari and paired it with String Hoppers, Dosa, and Roti. I mean, why not try all three? It was all so delicious that we couldn't resist. Don't forget to add on the Pol sambol, paired fabulously with the hoppers & dosa. And, make sure you save some room for the chocolate biskut pudding.
Finally, we want to give a shoutout to the team for their exceptional care and hospitality. They always checked in on us with a smile and made our dining experience truly memorable. Thank you, and we can't wait to visit again the next time we're in London.
Food was good, but some of the kari dishes are not as good as before. Drinks are excellent albeit small and average compared with London prices. Seating was much more spacious than before the COVID era. You can also book for earlier seating in advance now, which means I no longer need to queue for an hour just to get into a virtual queue. Service was excellent as usual.
The food was great, Interesting cocktails and the service was good. The waiter provided great recommendations and was friendly.
Best to make a booking at a non-window seat.
Loved this place! I’ve long been a fan of Sri Lankan cuisine and was thrilled by the food here. Highly recommend and also found it to be quite budget friendly and portions are large. Reservations essential as the place is quite small.
This was recommended to us by a friend and it was well worth it! We ordered the lamb biryani and the black pork curry with a side of brinjal moju (eggplant) and hoppers. We absolutely loved the moju and the flavour of the black pork curry worked amazingly with the hopper. One thing though is that both meat dishes had tough, chewy pieces which was why it's a 4/5.
I don't know. I had high expectations? Was I spoiled by another Soho Sri Lankan restaurant (possible, I will not name it here tho cause it would be bad but you can search for it). What I know is that I was somehow disappointed. The food is good and still pretty flavour/charact less. We had both the veggie and the regular taste menus and be aware: it was LOTS of food.. Even too much. I wished they had warned us as we ended up have to pack the mains!! The service is lovely and we manage to have a walk in even if online it said the first availability was in a week!!
Really tasty food with a lot of selection. Highly recommend the kothu roti. The Karis are a little on the small side but still very good and flavoursome. Only rating 4 stars because service could’ve been a little better and they didn’t let us bring our own birthday cake in which is weird. Also a compulsory charity donation to a charity of their choice, again weird.
Best Sri Lankan restaurant in London!
Last night, I had dinner at Hoppers Soho around 9 pm. Despite the restaurant still being busy, the atmosphere was fantastic and buzzing.
The food was absolutely delicious and the service was top-notch. The spice level was perfect and not overwhelming. I especially enjoyed the Prawn Kari, dosa and egg hopper.
I highly recommend this restaurant. 👍🏻
