| - Don't be fooled by the generic name. This is a genuine Sri Lankan restaurant.
I once took a date to a Sri Lankan place in NYC. When asked how spicy she wanted her dish, she said 'hot'. The waitress gave her The Look, and suggested something milder. After a ten minute argument, my date relented and agreed to 'medium'. After taking one bite, tears started streaming down her face, and they didn't stop until after the meal was over. It was the spiciest food I've ever had. This place is definitely a lot more Americanized, but you can get spicy food if you really demand it (don't just settle for 'hot' when they ask you how spicy you want your food).
Unfortunately, Sri Lankan classics like lamprais, aappa, vade, etc. aren't available, but their curry is solid.
