Colombo Social: Lankan Bar & Kitchen

One of the best restaraunts I’ve ever ever been to.

Very buzzy restaurant, visited Sunday lunch. Great hoppers, curries in the fiery side!

Yummy! Great service. Delicious food. Will go again. And again.

We chose the $50 per person option for a group. This included 4 different curries that we’re a size that would serve 4 people however we were 7 people. The desert was equally small, with 4 miniature triangles of chocolate brownie served with melted ice cream. The rice to accompany the curries was a single fried rice cake. On the up side, the service was warm and attentive and the atmosphere lively. However we won’t be returning.

One of the best dining experiences I have had in a while. Would highly recommend!

The service and food was just wonderful!! Will be back again!!

Lovely atmosphere. Nice staff. Really enjoyed the food. Great initiative

Didn’t live up to the hype of reviews, not a restaurant to which we’d return in a hurry.

Great food. Interesting blend of Traditional and modern tastes. Friendly service from arrival to leaving.

Great food, lovely staff - I will definitely be back!

Nice enough but would not return, nice atmosphere and good cocktails

Great hosts, great good. Fantastic concept of helping refugees and asylum seekers. Winning all around!

very noisy. A speaker above our table played bass notes and no treble or tune. Why music when you go out to be with friends? Chairs very uncomfortable. Food was delicious, service excellent.

We really enjoyed the variety and flavours of the banquet, and appreciated learning a little about each dish. We also appreciated their social purpose engagement and action.

Great food, gorgeous space. Highlights: soft shell crab roti, hoppers, veggie curry; but everything was delicious. Cocktail menu looked fun... next time!

The food was fantastic. The wait staff were courteous and attended to us very well. The atmosphere is great. The music was a bit loud but we found a table away from the speakers so that we could have a relaxed conversation over our sumptuous meal.

The food was amazing. This is my new favorite restaurant!

Food was lovely and something special, The staff were great. Thank you for a wonderful evening!

Hey Great food and dining experience enjoyed today thank you!

Shaun and Peter are excellent hosts! A fantastic concept for a restaurant giving back to the community, with a great atmosphere.

Had a lovely lunch, fabulous staff definitely will go back!

Absolutely delicious food with great service and a fun and lively atmosphere.

Great Friendly service and delicious well presented food , highly recommend

Food is unique and excellent. Favourites were the lamb rolls and the kothu roti. I can handle spice but the goat curry was very spicy! We were seated on a small table against the wall which was a bit uncomfortable but i still enjoyed the atmosphere. The food came out one dish at a time which was unusual

One of the best ‘fusion’ restaurants I have been to!

The food was so good and very authentic! Will be back again soon

Lovely atmosphere and great food - the whole family had a great time.

Absolutely incredible! A truly unique place with beautiful interiors and a great playlist. There is so much heart throughout the delicious food and within the service from the warm and caring staff. The soft shell crab is a must try. Can’t wait to visit again.

Amazing food, service, wine, vibe. Love this place, can’t wait to go back!

Fantastic / Tasty food, and a great addition to Enmore Rd.

Great food and drinks. Awesome style and great prices! Awesome!

A couple of items were not available as early as 6.30pm. The Roasted Cauliflower dish was very bland. The fried chicken tasted old. The crab dish was over priced. The cocktails were great. It did not do the modern twist very well i.e Kale in a roll.

Delicious food and helpful, friendly staff. My partner and I enjoyed the experience.

Awesome crab taco. One of the best things I’ve ever tasted. Great food with a great social conscience.

Great overall experience - loved the food, atmosphere had a good vibe, staff were friendly and the manager made a point of introducing himsf and checking in.

Fantastic food and great service- absolutely delicious! A top spot!!

The meal was delicious and the staff were really friendly. I would recommend trying the Roti Taco that was a real hit!

Great food : chickpeas were ok - all other excellent : portion size is small for the curry.

Incredible service, delivered with passion and attention to the guests like everyone was an old friend. Made even more enjoyable by the level of depth created in the food.

The food was fantastic. My group enjoyed the pan rolls, devilled prawns and the curries. The side dishes were also great. I will definitely be back. I loved it.

Really nice place, and very different experience for food! Definitely worth a try.

The staff, ambience and atmosphere were lovely. The quality of the dishes and the waiting times could be improved.

Felt the food was underwhelming and service average. Didn’t enjoy sitting right next to the hot kitchen on a hot humid event. Probably won’t return.

As always, I cannot fault the food, service, and venue. I can't wait until we head back in! Thanks guys :)

Delicious food and a wonderful atmosphere! My new favourite dining spot on Enmore Rd. Book a table, it gets busy!

The variety of choices was excellent. The hostess was extremely helpful as it was our first visit, and we are generally unfamiliar with Sri Lankan cuisine. We did find some of the dishes served on the lukewarm side, and could have been hotter. Also, a couple of the dishes felt under seasoned...salt level could have been higher...or the richness of the curry should have tasted deeper. The dahl was surprisingly one of the best dishes of the night. They only opened in November, so I am sure a lot of this is growing pains. We will definitely be back and try a whole range of new dishes.

Wonderful experience. Can’t wait to return and order all the things we didn’t this time.

Great food with a social conscience But get desserts please

Good vibe, friendly and helpful staff but the food is incredibly spicy and the menu does not really warn you on the heat rating which meant some of the items we ordered were inedible to us.

we were a table of 8, so we had a bit of every curry as well as some pan rolls, and all the condiments. Flavours were great - my personal fave was the dahl, but others on the table raved about the Pork (this was pretty spicy). Service was friendly and prompt, bar staff were great. The place was packed, and hopefully it remains this way for a long time to come.
