Amazing Sri Lankan near Disney

I can't believe there is such amazing Sri Lankan food just right outside of Disneyland for amazing prices. I've had Sri Lankan here in California only a handful of times and this spot is easily the best I've had in my life (so far).

Their menu is vast with a lot of different proteins and sides included, and you get to pick how you eat them (think of it like a carb of choice). I was thrilled to see so many vegan, plant-based options here to choose from, so this was a hard decision.

We ultimately decided on #6) Pal Roti Combo and #19) String Hoppers, both with veggie curries and spicy coconut sambal. Each was priced at $16 and let me tell you, it came with a lot of food.

The coconut roti was delicious and coupled well with the curry, jackfruit, and sambal. The rice noodle patties were such a fun way to enjoy everything as well, almost like a chip or tortilla. Everything tasted great, had an awesome kick, and filling.

While the ambiance inside isn't amazing, it's still a comfortable spot to dine in and enjoy some fabulous and unique South Asian island cuisine. I am so ready to come back again and try more of their dishes because everything was just A+.

Funny enough, I had this twice in one day. I was attending a friend's wedding party and he ordered the same food from here for my vegan friendly meal.

Most Delicious

I found that this Sri Lankan restaurant have the most delicious vegan options. This is my kind of food, people! There is no meat substitute used. They use all kind of vegetables like green beans, beetroot, jackfruit, pumpkin etc. to lotus root. They are very creative to make each vegetable to be a curry or sambol and yet each dish tastes different than the other.

I like it so much that I hired them to cater for my birthday party. I received the best catered party with top quality service. My vegan friends were so impressed with the taste and quality of the food.

If you go to their restaurant you will find that they have 6 - 7 different choices to have with savory rice each day. The help knows which one is vegan. I usually have the Lunch Packet plate with rice and 5 different curries. Each day they will change menu and different kind of vegan options are available. So I really never have the exact same plate twice. They usually put papadam with each Lunch Packet. Their Hopper is also vegan if you order with no eggs.

Pros: Lots of vegan options

Get your curry fix

Pretty easy to get a full vegan meal. The combo plate is comprised of coconut rice, 2 vegan curries meat - or 3 curries. Didn’t find the service to be friendly, the staff was eating at the tables when we walked in, so we were probably bothering them. Everything except the rice is spicy as hell.

Pros: Coconut rice and lentil curry are delicious , Affordable , Filling

Cons: Sketchy area , Empty , Service

They have lots of tasty, vegan Sri Lankan food

I don't normally eat at non-vegetarian restaurants, but it was in the area and checked it out. They have lots of steam-tray items you can get combination plates of, and 3/4 of the items were vegan! They do serve meat, so I'm giving them 4 stars for that reason since this is Happy Cow, but the people there were very nice and friendly, the food was light and tasty, and I'd definitely go back there. Good value, good food.

Pros: Tasty, Affordable, Many ethnic vegan options

Cons: They serve meat
