Parking is available. A wonderful restaurant to satisfy your cravings for Indian food. They serve a wide range of dishes including snacks, drinks, coffee and sweets. The portions are what you'd expect for the price and the presentation was good. Their food is delectable and flavoursome. The customer service was also good and it's worth revisiting. Thank you for your service :)

Very delicious dishes can be found here. Food is great and we enjoyed a lot . This is a vegetarian restaurant but you have lot of options to go with. Prices are moderate and worth the price. 1) Dine in and take away options are there. 2) Air conditioned and seating area is available on two floors so plenty of space there. 3)Parking is available but limited space so might find difficult to find a spot if it is too busy day. Good place for family gatherings and all. Great service as well.

Came for a dinner on the final week of the year, I see the boss ordering people left and right, specially trying to squeeze in more people. And I can see the workers are also over worked. May be the boss should think about the workers who are working on a time they should have spent with their families. So to go lightbon them and not squeeze in more people when they cant accomodate more and handle all. I saw the bills getting late, food not cooked properly. I think this is because the restaurant is trying to have more visitors but dont hace the capacity to manage. So the place also felt like a normal Saivar kade. Not gona reduce the rating further. But its not nice for the boss or the restaurant to compromise the quality over quantity. Previous Review(4 Star) We tried, Parota Kuruma, Kaju Masal, Dosai, Ghee Dosai, Butter Naan, Garlic Naan, Pudhina Parota, paneer butter masala and paneer 65. Ghee dosai, butter naan and Parota Kuruma are good. Pudhina Parota, Garlic Naan and Kaju Masal Dosai did not meet our expectations. Ghee Dosai is huge so careful ordering for kids, it may end up too much. Paneer Butter Masala is a very small portion compared to what they gave 3 years back but it is good. Paneer 65 had a better portion than we expected, so it's worth the price. Dessert options are good, they did not have some items we looked for. Be informed that Gulab Jamun had one peice worth for the price. It's a good place with ambiance and air conditioned space. Staff services are also good. Prices are high, compared to other vegetarian restaurants but most of the items are adequate for one person. And worth the service and place. Recommended for family dine in.

Good Indian food restaurant. It's 100%vegetarian food. They have a huge variety of food! We tasted a few of their signature dishes. The taste is moderate for the prices they sell. The beverages were ok and of course it could improve. It's a "eat quick and get out" place. Tables are closely packed. Usage crowded. Staff is ok. Service is moderate. They have a huge range of Indian sweets. We tried 4 different ones, but to be honest, they all tasted the same! Ample parking, clean restaurant. Great location.

Recently visited this Indian restaurant. Tried their, 1. Vegetable Biryani 2. Paneer pulao 3. Parata set 4. Gobi manchurian 5. Butter Paneer Masala curry 6. Ghee paper Masala All the food items were very tasty except for the Gobi Manchurian which was so salty and very oily. It was deep fried cauliflower coated in sauces and was an Indo-Chinese dish. It was recommended to us by the waiter. However it didn't meet our expectations. The service was commendable. It didn't take so long for the food to arrive on the table. They serve mineral water in sealed water bottle seperately. After the mains we tried their rasgulla which was so sweet. They had lots of sweets at the entrance that it was difficult to choose one from them. There is enough space and they have upstairs as well. But outside there is limited parking area. Would recommend to anyone and would definitely revisit this place.

Tasty indian food.

Food is really good. Nice but expensive to some extend. They have delicious paneer by the way. ( when I visited I tried it, may be differs with your liking) Cost above 600.00 for a person. And also there is tax at the end.

We took kadai paneer following advise from the staff and masala paper dosai with Garlic naan. Comparing to any other Indian veg restaurant the taste / quality is really low. Masala doesn't have masala just potatoes without taste. I will definitely never go back there. The place is pretty big but decorations need to be done too it s just plain wall. Also price is too much comparing same kind of restaurant around this area

Yummy Indian food the flavor were perfect We enjoyed it. The service is great too. Value for money. Ordered - Masala Paper dosa Plain paper dosa Naan and butter paneer

One of my favourite restaurants I've been to in Sri Lanka. The dosa was huge! They kindly gave us an extra garlic nann between us as well as extra dips. Service phenomenal and food was perfect. Busy with a great vibe for a reason

Ordered 3 distinctly different dishes and all three came the same look, same base, same taste and overdose of oil. The photos tell the story. Never seen this kind of cooking any where in the world .

One of our regular vegetarian food restaurants. All Indian food. But very good quality and tasty as well. Parking is available but limited. Friendly staff and very efficient. They have a Chinese menu too but they are famous for south Indian food, so best to try Indian food at an Indian restaurant. They have Indian sweets as well.

Food was exceptional. A best place to satisfy your craving for authentic indian food. The aroma and the taste of vege biriyani was so good. Prices also affordable. Service was friendly too. Parking is very limited.

Woow! Very delicious foods.One of the best vegetarian restaurant in Colombo. Variety foods and the staffs are very friendly.

A word of caution to fellow diners in this restaurant. It's a rip off since they do not deliver what you order instead land you with the stuff which not meant for your. If you call back to raise your concern your put on hold or hung up. I am writing after a bad experience had this afternoon. They are excuse is that they were busy with customers. Hell with the restaurant that doesn't take ownership on their mistakes and the sorry attitude of the staff which is even more pathetic. Let 's wish them good luck as we see many restaurant pulling their shutters in recent times.

I chose this place to try authentic Indian cuisine. For lunch, they serve a set of rice and toppings (thali), the second on the menu is very good. Delicious juices, great service. Beautiful place)

Very good food and very friendly staff

Tasty food and friendly service.

This was our first meal in Sri Lanka & it didn’t disappoint. The curry is delicious & the price fab!

What can i say!! It's just perfect. The food is sooooooo good. I have been staying near by so i tried several meals and they were all super delicious. Portions are very generous. Great quality. The have the best dosas i have ever eaten in my life.

Our lunch time cravings were sorted out nicely by Thalis. Restaurant was clean ,Staff were friendly and attentive. We found most of the dishes being reasonable with pricing eventhough Ulundu wada was surprisingly expensive. Overall it was a nice experience and would definitely be back.

Wow, the food was so incredibly delicious! I had dosai, aloo masala and naan and it was all just perfect. The prices are absolutely reasonable and it's worth coming here. The service was also great, very friendly and attentive. Thank you!

I simply loved the food. Take the dosai, it's amazing!

Thalis Restaurant boasts an undeniably delicious Uludu wade I’ll give 💯 But.., the rest of the meals failed to live up to the same standard. The dishes, while decent, didn't justify the premium pricing . high prices don't match overall food quality. Look elsewhere for better value. Small tiny cup of tea is 300 Rupee’s, . those seeking well-rounded value and consistent quality across the menu, there are better places than this. Remember, deliciousness shouldn't come at the cost of an empty wallet.

The service provided was efficient. But the quality of the food were not so great. Paper thosa was salty and couldn’t eat at all. Ulundu wade so hard and didn’t feel fresh. Total waste of money. Cannot recommend this place.

Nice place for pure vegetarian food.good food and helpful staff.

Best Indian place I have tried. Food is very tasty and their paper thosai is very huge and good value for money! They had a variety of Indian sweet. Their masala chai is to die for! Can't wait to try again

This is an excellent spot to indulge in delicious vegetarian cuisine. However, parking 🅿️ can be a challenge due to the high volume of customers. The customer service is exceptional, though. I highly recommend trying the South Indian Thali, Kaju Rice, and Plain Dosa, as they are not only reasonably priced, but also incredibly flavorful 🍛. One thing to note is that you must purchase mineral water 💦 here, but you're welcome to enjoy your meal with your hands 🙌 .

Had the best North Indian Thali here. The food was so good. Not spicy where you can’t taste the food. Really happy with the Sevice too. Udaya Kumar who served us was a pleasure to deal with. He knows what customer service is. Keep up the good work.

Very tasty food. Vegi biryani is super. Kadai paneera awesome. Best is veterinarian food here taste better than non-veg dishes elsewhere same calibre restaurant. Service is friendly. Parking is tight and busy but well organized

I have visited Thalis restaurant 100 times and my favorite dish is paneer 65 and I visited again today. I ordered Paneer 65 and Onion dosa as I came to have my dinner. You can see from the pictures that it was overcooked and fried into very larger pieces, so I mentioned this to the waiter and he said I’ll check, after Half an hour I called a another waiter because the previous one didn’t respond. I told the other waiter the same problem and he came after half an hour and said I checked with my chef and there was no problem and I said ok and you’re right and I’m wrong.

Our first time at your restaurant. We had heard many good things from friends but naturally wanted to see and taste for ourselves. One word-'Exceptional!' Your restaurant, staff and mainly the foods are best ever had vegetarian food. Thank you for the healthy and tasty service of food.

Their food is delicious. This is the only restaurant that serves authentic Indian food. Their idly is very soft and tasty. Their dosas are also very crispy just like the ones you get in India. My favourite is the paneer dosa which is super yummy. Their sweets are also great. Their cold badam milk is alright, it's a packet mix that's used.

Highly recommend their Soya Kurma and Naan. Amazing service, yummy food!

I was hosted for a vegetarian meal by a close friend . This is the third time i have eaten in this restaurant. Their food is really good . Good friendly service. Inside its clean . I need to caution customers who might want to eat here of an unpleasant incident which took place . The final bill was asked by my friend from the waiter and he placed his bank debit card in the folder which was taken to the cashier . A little while later the waiter returned with the debit card in the folder and told my friend the card is been rejected . My friend was surprised that the card was rejected and mentioned to the waiter that there is sufficient funds in his account and a little while before coming for dinner he had done some purchasing with the card . My friend who was angry by now took his debit card and went straight to the cashier to pay the bill and requested the cashier to try his card in the machine and the machine did accept his payment. May be the waiter and cashier thought an embarrassed customer will pay by cash immediately as he was the host . Luckily we are all very close friends and my friend didn't have to feel embarrassed .

Worth the money , acceptable quality but service needs improvement.

Good place to dine with family. Ideal for vegiterians. Good quality food. Prices are bit expensive but food is great. Nice calm environment. Staff is very friendly and quick service.

Visited Sri Lanka after 7 years and after 2 months, wanted to try my favorite South Indian cuisine. So I stepped into Thalis restaurant, as I have good experiences with them back in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. They have little space for free car parking. It was around 9:30am 25th Feb. Loved the basic interior setting. Very much in line with average international Indian food restaurants, spacious and breathable, tables and seating are ok. 4 stars for that. I ordered one of my favorite breakfast meals, Idli Sambar with Medu Vada and Sada Chai (tea). The waiter didn't understand one word I was saying in English. He kept on talking to me in his own language. Since we were not going anywhere with this, I switched to Hindi to see if he understands. NO. Tamil? NO. You would think that an International restaurant would employ a waiter who can converse a little bit in English or at least in one of the homeland languages. But no, this guy is so arrogant that he implies I speak his language. When it comes to dining out, I don't look at my wallet or the quantity of food I consume. I demand quality; food and service which I'm prepared to pay good for. This was becoming such an uncomfortable situation. He didn't understand how to explain the simple order in their own menu. After 5 minutes of distasteful explanation and my hunger growing stronger, I pointed to the menu and asked to bring exactly what's there and said I want the tea before the Idly Sambar. Food preparation was fast. He brings the Idli Sambar plate, no tea. I reminded him my order. He said "tea later". I said "tea before Idly Sambar". He says "tea making, tea making". It was as if he wanted me to suffer thru my experience, so that I will not go back there. There were two other customers who were speaking his language, and he seemed to attend to them in a very hospitable manner. To get him to come to serve me, now I had to shout out "excuse me". If he can't handle just 3 diners, what if the place was up to capacity? The idli wasn't exactly to authentic consistency. I felt they have mixed idli rice powder with wheat or Rava (samolina) as it wasn't breaking well. The taste was ok. The Sambar was almost closer to Dhal curry. Nowhere near the authentic. The Medu Vada and the Chutney were the only food that was good, and I enjoyed. I didn't enjoy my visit at the Sri Lankan Thalis restaurant. The waiter spoiled the whole experience. The Sri Lankan Thalis management should take their diners seriously whether they are local or foreign.

Super place for Indian food lovers. Yummy veg dishes. Prices are bit high end but can't complain. They are open for deliveries, pick up and dine-in as well. Inquire to get an idea about the size of a portion before you order. It will help.

The best South Indian restaurant i have been too. They have a great range of authentic south Indian dishes along with a mixed menu of indian Chinese items such as Manchurian, shezwan noodles, rice etc. We had the paper Masala dosa which was just perfect along with a channa bhatura (Big poori with a nice side of masala channa) and for starters we had a hot and sour soup which took me back to india and an onion bhatura. The service is always friendly and the manager himself is a charm. They also have buffets on certain holidays only so do check it out. OH and do have their ladoos when you are there. Thank me later :)

Amazing good quality Indian vegetarian food. Excellent service by the staff. One of my regular go to places . Its worth to try their different dishes .

Delicious Veg Food. Enjoyed the meals...! Worth the price and it’s reasonable.

Second time here and the food was great. Do note that Thali's are only served during lunch times but do try their ghee masala thosai if you're in for dinner.

Exceptional vegetarian food in Colombo. Masala Dosa and Puri were excellent!

Tried their lunch buffet and the food wal overall good. The staff is friendly and their service is good. This place gets crowded very often so it can be a bit difficult to find a parking spot.

Really good food. Good portion sizes. Reasonable prices.

Highly overpriced specially the fried idli which i ordered few days ago. Price was 850/= and naturally i was expecting a decent portion but i was surprised to receive a small box which didnt weigh even 100g with few small idlis. When inquired they said "sorry the ingredients used are expensive". Surely they dont use saffron or any other exclusive ingredients? Its just basic chopped onions and some chilli powder and their reply shows how arrogant they are. Buy from this place if you want to get ripped off. Not worth buying from places like this when there are many other good indian restaurents in the city who sell great tasting value for money food.

Great food and environment. Though it will take some time to get what you order its worth waiting for a delicious veg meal. Will be happy if they can expedite delivering orders...

Very delicious, vegetarian food. Very much enjoyed dining in here. Prices are very reasonable. Service is great. Highly recommend.

Quite expensive for an Indian restaurant. We tried the south indian thali, the taste was average but the rasam was excellent. I don't think its worth the cost.

Try their - South/North Thali, Ghee masala roast or Paneer dishes with a Masala tea to finish the course ! Price is very very very reasonable and the portion sizes are enough for one meal. Best place in Sri Lanka for Indian food (would say in range with Chutneys at Cinnamon Grand and way way better than Shanmugas). Think they are operated by Vasantha Bawan India so the quality of food is good. They have all kinds of South Indian veg dishes and some North Indian Thalis.

First time trying these guys out . Dosa was crispy as expected. All the accompanying chutneys were fresh and mouthwatering. Definitely will come back.

The place is expensive and the quantity of the food is low. However, the place is neat and calm.

Great vegetarian food Fabulous taste, they have some authentic Indian sweets The staff are many and food comes fast Open till 11pm at night Has ample parking space East location and family friendly

Had an amazing experience with Thalis Restaurant. Their delicious food served within 10 minutes after we ordered. Efficient and pleasant staff. Highly recommended. ❤❤

The food was delicious, however the service was pathetic! Staff not at all motivated to serve, completely rude, so eager to collect the service charges. We brought these issues before the management and they said that you may wish to not come again. Reiterating, pathetic attitude!

It's an vegetarian restaurant in a resedential area of Colombo. Quality is Very good and the ambience of the place is non fussy and practical. We were there one Sunday for lunch. We had a special Thali lunch. It was awesome and the right quantity. Every little dish had it's distinct taste and flavour. A bouquet for the cooks of this restaurant !

Lovely place. Recommend for authentic Indian food. They serve good portions. Friendly humble staff. Most of them are ex - Mathura staff. Parking is available, but might be a problem when crowded. But staff are around to help, so nothing to worry about. Wheel chair access is available. They serve breakfast too.

Good place for having thali food. Vegetarian and sweet items are available

Tasty food, but good menus starting from 11am. (Thalis)

Highly satisfied. Highly recommended place. Had a South Indian thali and kaju pulao. Deliciously made. Great value for the money. Kaju pulao was full of cashews. A lot of exciting dishes in the menu to try. I am a huge non veg person but now I am open to veg as well. Definitely will be back to try new ones.

Worst ever place to order via Uber. This is how their quality was. I’d not recommend even a single star for this restaurant. Not a quality packing for the food Doesn’t recommend this place at all

I would highly recommend this place for Indian style vegetarian food. Especially if you are looking for Ghee Masala / Crispy Paper Dosai. The Masala vadai were also good. In summary the food is tasty and worth the price. The place was crowded at the time I went and almost all the tables were reserved or occupied. However the staff managed to spare a table. The service can further be improved by reducing the waiting time.

Very good place for a casual dinner out, amidst the busy streets of Havelock Town. Good ambience and good food at a reasonable price. Friendly service as well and can choose from an array of different kinds of South Indian vegetarian menu.
