If you're in North Adelaide and craving some authentic Sri Lankan street food/ fast food/ hoppers look no further than the nice little café on O'Connell Street. This cozy spot, simply decorated yet inviting, offers a delightful experience reminiscent of the famous Pilawoos in Sri Lanka. One of the highlights is that they are open until late, making it an ideal destination for night owls seeking delicious bites.
Their hoppers are arguably the best in town, and the fact that you can get them any time from the time they open until past midnight is a testament to their commitment to quality and service. The hoppers are perfectly cooked with a crispy edge and soft center, and the accompanying lunu miris packs a spicy punch that's well balanced.
The café boasts a wide variety of Sri Lankan dishes at very affordable prices. Whether you're stopping in for a quick bite or gathering with friends for a late-night snack, you'll find something to satisfy your cravings. The seafood kottu we tried was really tasty, with a perfect blend of flavors.
Additionally, we were pleasantly surprised by the complimentary ginger tea, which was the perfect way to round off our meal. It had just the right amount of ginger and sugar, making it a soothing and flavorful end to our spicy feast.
The service here is outstanding, with friendly and efficient staff who serve with a smile. The owner/chef is talented and personable, ensuring that every customer feels welcomed and well taken care of. The quick service adds to the overall positive experience, making it a perfect spot for both dine-in and takeaway.
Overall, this café is a must-try for anyone in the area. Whether you're a local or just visiting, make sure to stop by and enjoy the fantastic Sri Lankan cuisine and...

Read moreAlright, we are a couple who occasionally travel Adelaide to Melbourne during a weekend to get some decent srilankan food. Honestly, I had enough with all these places that do not serve proper kottu with authentic texture of roti and incorrect proportionate of vegies and protein.
I'm coming tonight to take away a couple of kottu's to see if you guys are the real deal.
Excited 😊!!!!!!!!
Good Clear communication ,Roast chicken was on point , portion size, price, perfect spice blend
Bad Wrong roti, not enough vegies, meat was very plain, almost like it was boiled separately and mixed.
Definitely room for improvement. This is my expectation for a kottu, Someone else might be different. I understand that ingredients and other things I mentioned will have a cost impact. It's better than all other srilankan restaurants in Adelaide, BUT not by...
