The food here is absolutely amazing and full of authentic Sri Lankan flavors! I ordered Koththu and other dishes, and everything was so tasty. The lime juice, especially, stood out it had a perfect, refreshing Sri Lankan taste that brought back great memories. Highly recommend this spot! Keep up the same taste and quality you're doing an excellent job! Regards Krishan

They started off with a bang, the food use to be good, potion size was grate, however today’s purchase was sadly not good at all and very disappointing. I bought a kotthu, the potion size was half of what it used to be, the price was still $18.45, even the container that it was put in wasn’t properly full. When I asked the girl who was working by herself, she said it’s due to the cost of things. This is why all these businesses shut down, the quality/quantity goes down and the prices stay the same or go up, so the usual customers stop going. Sad to say I won’t be going here again, for $18.45 I can get a better bigger meal. It’s very disappointing and I truly feel sorry for the poor girl who was working in the food truck all by herself.

We tried the chicken kottu and iced Milo.. Chicken kottu was flavourful and spicy to our liking. Had enough gravy mixed which made it even more delicious. Iced Milo was good but could improve in flavour.

I visited on opening night, and as expected, the place was quite busy and the staff seemed a bit overwhelmed by the demand. We ordered three Iced Milos, Chicken Kottu, Cheese Lamb Masala Kottu, and an Egg Godamba Roti with Chicken Curry for takeaway. The wait was longer than expected - over an hour, with no communication - including for the Iced Milos. When the food finally arrived, there was a mix-up in the order. Instead of the Cheese Lamb Kottu, we got two Chicken Kottus, and the Godamba Roti with Chicken Curry was initially served on a plate instead of in a takeaway container, which the staff quickly corrected. That said, the food itself was flavourful and tasty. The only downside was that it could have used a bit more spice and kick. Considering it was the opening night, I understand the delays, and despite the hiccups, I am looking forward to coming back and giving it another try. Will definitely return and recommend others to try it too once they have settled into a smoother routine!

Delicious! Some of the best Sri Lankan street food that I’ve had in Melbourne. Curries were well balanced and flavourful. The iced Milo and Lemon juice were very authentic. Most of all, the staff were extremely nice and did a great job with both preparing and serving food.
