Harden's survey result
Summary
“The food is so spicy and interesting”, according to fans of this “authentic” Sri Lankan outfit “tucked away” in Soho, from fin tech escapee Eroshan Meewella and his wife Aushi. A second, more spacious branch has opened in the City, followed in summer 2025 by a more casual street-food spinoff called Adoh! in Covent Garden.
Summary
“Interesting and original spicing” makes the “Sri Lanka-inspired small plates” and “amazing curries” at this “rather cramped” Soho four-year-old a “good choice if you like really spicy food”. Top Menu Tip – “superb hot butter cuttlefish”.
Summary
“Knock-out Sri Lankan small plates” at this Soho three-year-old deliver “bright and fiery dishes”. There are “amazing veggie options”, and it’s “well-priced and authentic”.
For 34 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
