Kothu Restaurant in Wandsworth

What's great. The food. The Mutton Rolls and Vardi starters were excellent. Then Devil Chicken, a gap, then the Chicken Poriyal. Both great. Then, then, then...a very long gap. To be fair the place was busy and the queue of delivery drivers shows how good the food is. Finally asked the staff and chicken fried rice and noodles arrived along with the lentil and Pol rotis arrived. The Lentil curry is just the best I've ever had. If I could I'd give Kothu a 3.9. No criticism of the staff who are friendly and the food is excellent. The beer is reasonably priced. I'll go again.

I took some Belgian friends of mine here for dinner. We hadn’t been before and we were pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food. Quite hot and delicious. Excellent first experience of Sri Lankan food for us.

Lovely masala dosai to start but chicken kothu main was so spicy (even though I ordered mild) I couldn’t eat it. Service friendly. Atmosphere a bit vacant, other than beeping noise from some kind of electrical device.

We came here for lunch because my brother and his family had been twice and loved it so we thought we would give it a try. On arrival there was an odd smell but we still sat down and started to look at the menu. We ordered a variety of food which included fish cutlets, veg samosas, chillier paneer and cauliflower Manchurian. The fish, somasas and cauliflower were nice but the chilli paneer was not. The food took a very long time to come and we was told there was only one chef. Service was slow, no apology and each time we received food the waitresses forgot to give us serving spoons. The masala dosa’s were awful, we had to send one back as it was very soggy. I ordered the chicken Kotu which was not nice at all, lacked flavour. When we paid the bill there was no thank you, did you enjoy meal, nothing. The service was terrible and food was average. My brother said when he went there were three ladies in the kitchen so maybe he just lucked out on the chefs. I would not be returning
