Absolutely delicious authentic food. My brother-in-law was Sri Lankan, and I have not eaten food like this for years. You can’t go wrong. Lots of options for vegetarians and vegans too. The photo is my half attacked lunch. Highly recommended!!!

No for me. Meals were served cold, QVM.

Generous servings, easy on the pocket and quick service. This is also one of my favorite place for teh tarik (pulled tea) and masala chai. Both teas are not too sweet, and has been "pulled" during the pouring process so that it is foamy and light. Masala chai is also full of ginger and cardamom flavour. I have heard of Kottu as being an iconic Sri Lankan dish - torn bread cooked with a variety of meat and vegetables. It looks like fried rice and taste delicious. The lamprais is a rice dish cooked in stock and served with meat and vegetable curry. Again delicious and generous.

Not happy at all. Spend $48 for 3 items.
Quantity is enough for only a big child not for adults. Wasted my money. Not that good taste too. Potato smelled a little bit. Maybe old stuff. I ordered from brimbank cafe

My favourite place for lunch at Vic Market. Delicious Sri Lanka food. Generous serves. Friendly service. Lots of choice. Different combos to suit everyone.

Was initially super excited to see a Sri Lankan spot at QVM. But was shocked at the awful customer service and rude staff. Even as a fellow Sri Lankan person the staff were not accommodating or kind. Can't imagine how they treat other customers. Looks like other south asians eating here have similar bad experiences. Traditional combo didn't even come with all the things listed on the menu. Food was mediocre at best. Disappointed and ashamed to see that this lackluster spot is how Sri Lankan culture is being represented in Victoria.

Indian/ Sri Lankan restaurant. Tried their chicken Koththu roti which are cooked to order and curry buffet (rice & curry). Food was above average, Koththu roti portion was big. Friendly staff. Restaurant is usually busy.
