Surabi Restaurant in Milton Keynes

Was searching for some good authentic South Indian food and a friend suggested this place. A very humble place run by a beautiful family who do everything in a homely manner! Their food is indeed authentic South Indian/SriLankan food and anyone looking for such food should visit this please!! Not much of a seating area and the family did mention that its much better to place an order and collect than dine ! But the effort to travel and collect the food is completely worth it! Really enjoyed it and at such affordable prices as well!

My favorite place in Milton Keynes. I feel like home when i eat there. The chechi( a staff working there/i don't know if its an owner )there makes us feel so comfortable that i miss my mom everytime i go there. I like thier srilankan dosa and rice set (chicken and mutton option available ) the most 😋😋😋

I had a string hoppers yesterday it was so delicious. I this meal nearly 2 years after because I didn’t get a chance to eat string hopper’s for ages. Must try 🥰❤️

I ate a Saturday special meal that is enough for 2 people to share and eat with 1 meal The customer service was very good everything was very neat and clean I would Recemend going to this restaurant

It's a wonderfull restaurant I had mutton kothu with biryani and mutton rolls the taste was very good and scrumptious I will definitely visit this place again no matter what I DONT REALLY GET WHY PEOPLE SAY THIS IS A BAD RESTAURANT

Lovely food and great atmosphere. The head chef was a delight and she looked after us really well! Highly recommend!

To all my Indian, pakistaani, and sri lankan friends You must try Lump Rice Which is served only on Saturdays Me who had never tried lump rice now It's been 1 year I haven't spent Saturday without Lump Rice

I had been to the place before Covid and felt the food was alright. I then turned up last October on a Friday evening for Tea. And they randomly asked if I would like to buy the last Veg Thaali they had. Ever since I have been going all Fridays for the Veg Thaali. It comes with Rice and 6 sides of various veggies, all of them yummy. It’s more than worth the 8£. Have had Pittu, chicken and fish curry. All of them are tasty. Good for the spicy pallet. Also their rolls are tasty.

Lovely little place, great food and prices

Such amazing food, love the full experience. I'm always there.

I tried Lamprais for the first time here which is one of the much sought after delicacies and is not served by many restaurants here. It was a scrumptious treat wrapped in banana leaves that came with a generous portion of chicken and a massive serving of rice. I would give four stars in terms of spice, flavour and authenticity. However, I was not impressed with the mutton rolls, they were mediocre. Although freshly made and crispy on the outside, there was no meat which defeats the purpose of the short eat! Nevertheless, I can't deny that there's a certain appeal to the Lamprais and for the price I paid it was definitely worth the money and something I’d order again.

Great Sri Lankan food. Mutton roll, veg kothu and paneer curry all tasty. Would recommend

Wow ... What a taste. I didn't know we get such a authentic Indian srilankan food at this cheap price.. I'm going to go there frequently Superb taste super super we had dosa biryani and kottu

Hidden gem, mutton curry on bone was rich and with whol spices like cardamom it was very delicious. The dosa is very good value and also v nice. The owners are very generous and helpful it is nice authentic food I highly recommend Hard to find small genuine places like this these days

Super srilankan Tamil food .. kothu roti was good.

Surabi restaurant is one and only best authentic Sri Lankan’s cousin in Milton Keynes. My favourite regular place to get food. Chef Jana is fascinated with authentic Sri Lankan food and he always delivers the best tasting food. My favorits are Kothu rotti, Lamprais and Appam Egg. Kothu Roti is a popular Sri Lankan Street food. The flaky roti is chopped finely, stir-fried with eggs and rich spices and finished with a light curry sauce The Lamprais recipe originates from the Dutch controlled colonial Ceylon of the 1600s. The authentic recipe was handed down from generation to generation. Appam Egg, wafer thin, bowl-shaped pancakes made from fermented batter of rice flour & coconut milk.

Absolutely lovely food, Amazing people

I’m not sure how some people has given 5 rating , yesterday I had idly and biryani both are not good. Chicken wasn’t cooked properly and rice didn’t taste good.

Cheap and best South Indian food speciality,with other indian cuisine

Nice little family run take away shop. Driving on a few dishes, they are able to ensure good quality. Authentic flavours and dishes make then stand out. The price is very reasonable . Getting homely food fresh and hot - that is an experience not to be easily found. The owners let me know that I could order ahead and they would ensure the food was ready for collection. There is enough parking outside. Place is easy to find too. I know I'm going to pop by the next time I'm paying through Milton Keynes.

Nice place to try South Indian and sri lankan foods

Very low quality, you will definitely waste the food. I will never go again, they use sour batter for dosas

Food was extremely bad, tasted horrible. Rushed and was off. Will never order again

I bought Some food from here, i got shambhar it's cold because it's should be hot when you serving and Chutny smell was not good it's look like wasn't fresh. Thanks you

Absolutely amazing taste. The food was freshly, medium spiced and did not have oil floating on top. I stopped to try the food while in the area and I love it. The food is also priced sensibly like most of the restaurants around the area. Very friendly staff as well. Now I know where they are, I will surely be going there again.

Best South Indian and Srilankan dishes. Authentic and fresh.

Food was ok. Not the best! Recently ordered milk hopper. it was very sour!

Tasty Sri Lankan cuisine. The food is delicious. Great big potions. Owners are very friendly.

Absolutely loved the food here, next time I'll take a pic but I couldn't wait to eat it! I had it with my 2 daughters and they loved it as well. It was nice to find something different and delicious in MK

Only visiting MK, though glad I went here. Food delicious and reasonably priced. Very friendly owners.

Very impressed with the food, was worth the travel. My partner is Srilankan and approves of the amazingl food they make. Really lovely and friendly people. Would definately recommend.

Just a place where these people ruining srilankan and Indian foods ,they don't know to cook ,but just running a restaurant, disgrace !!! Never recommend this restaurant Never ! Never !

The best place for South Indian foods.

The food was just average. I understand the price is lower so cant expect too much but they may increase the price and provide good food. Had Chicken Briyani and the chicken was too dry, clearly it was very old chicken pieces. Had mutton curry, it was too salty and i hardly see any mutton pieces that are consumable. Most of the pieces are bones. Had Chicken kothu and it was good and much better than other restaurant's in MK.

A little gem hidden away, lovely authentic dishes

Chicken biriyani was delicious as usual, always good, highly recommend

Delicious food and nice people. Family business. Not big place but we fpumd place on sunday evening.

Small restaurant with seating for about 6-8 people. Good variety of Sri Lankan dishes. Lovely food and run by lovely people. Some special dishes depending on day of week. Takeaway available.

Lovely authentic family run take away. Real genuine Sri Lankan food. Just like in Sri Lanka.

Food was good. Simple and small place with 3 tables. Go with less expectations about interiors. Owners are very humble and friendly. Food was really good, little spicy.. freshly made upon orders.

This is a fantastic place if they got a late night License I would be more than happy to run there Security on here this would do so well. As it is already food is delicious all you want is this food after hours when pub night clubs shuts. But not open at those times

Food was ok.We had dosas and idly.very good chutneys. Best coconut chutney i have ever had!and big portions! If the table wasnt sticky i would give 4 stars. Have visited this place few times more since last review and lifted my rating to 4 stars. Had fish and rice cooked and served in banana tree leaf-BEAUTIFUL

Very lovely food and hospitality. Would definitely recommend trying

Authentic Sri Lankan food in reasonable price. No fancy outlooks or decoration needed for great food, this place proves it.

Very tasty authentic Srilankan food. Reasonable price and very helpful staff. Recommended.

Reasonable price and friendly service.

The best south Indian food in Milton Keynes

small place but good Asian food

Very nice place with tables to sit and eat. Owned by lovely Sri Lankan family. Great prices and every order has tasted great. Previously I would visit the Sri Lankan food vans at the city market but Surabi tastes fresher and is superior. Highly reccomended!

Food is delicious and price is very reasonable. I am vegetarian and have seen their veg dishes loaded with lots of veggies which is so rare to find in most of the places. The couple are very lovely

Perfect place for Sri Lankan food, cheap and best, like that nethali puttu, owners are friendly, worth try this place

Unfussy and great Sri Lankan takeaway with a couple of tables for eat in. Recommend the Koththu roti, and dosa. Nice couple who own it
