Very famous place in Kandy and is patronized by many including foreigners. The food is cheap and fresh. Like the quality and the variety too. Gets crowded most of the time and sometimes tough finding a table to sit.

If the service wasn't so incompetent here, I would've rated this higher. But the two occasions I went, there were issues. First instance I ordered a dish, only later to be told they ran out of it. Then I see two locals get served the same dish I ordered served to them. I pointed this out to the useless waiter,... More

I ate here a few times with my boyfriend, the service was great, the food was tasty and really good value! It was really busy and had a very good atmosphere. And at night they had a nicer restaurant upstairs for a better setting.

We felt like as if we were dining at our home as the food was so tasty and delicious. Quantity is less compared to the money worth but its perfectly fine when you get such good quality and TASTY Indian food. Spead is limited for Vegetarians but they are really good with taste. Must try for dinner or lunch at... More

It's a nice place to cool down and the food is fine. It just didn't really light my fire. There are plenty of places to eat in Kandy and this is just one. It is big and it is easy to find, so as a safe bet, you can't miss, but not EVERY night!

High prices, special for tourists (no locals there). Big choice but quality and taste is average, not worth the price. Food in local hotels was better in 1/3 of their price.

The four of us had a lovely meal here while in Kandy. But be warned they shut very early..from memory it was about 8-8.30pm when they shut up. The meals were very reasonably priced and we would definately eat here again if in Kandy
