    They have lot of vegetarian breakfast and snack items available with seating arrangements. It’s located in Hampden lane. Some of the menu items are made fresh and taste is fine. The food is delivered to table and also local food delivery available.

    If you are searching for a vegetarian restaurant in Wellawatta this may be a good option. They have a good variety of vegetarian food and the taste was okay. Chill Parata was too spiced but it was mouthwatering. Ghee parata was so delicious and highly recommended! Prices were almost double due to the recent conditions of these days but still reasonable. Average service. Place was crowded and there were limited seats. Less parking spaces may be a concerning fact.

    Fast moving vegetarian restaurant in Wellawatha Hampton lane area. So many food varieties available there. Very clean place. Seating facilities available. Reasonable price. Taste is average. Must improve their taste. Portions also sufficient. Totally it’s an average vegetarian restaurant with reasonable price.

    Delicious vegetarian food, very local vibe, nice, spice, definitely worth trying. The portion size is huge ( I can eat it for 3 meals). The only thing is limited choice available before 3 pm. So even though I didn’t get exactly what I came for, they accommodated me with other options and it was absolutely tasty!

    On June 8th, I ordered Vegetable Rice Meal & Parata from Ammachi Food Center through PickMe Food. Nothing to blame with their taste of the Meals. The rice and curry were really tasty but when I opened the Kesari package, it was visible that some insect was attached to it. I have been having food from them for the past 7 Years. As a regular customer this is the first time i’m experiencing some fault like this. It is recommended to recheck on their food quality.

    Prices of the food are reasonable. The taste of the food could be rated around 4/5. Dine in available along with take away. Can order their food via Uber Eats too. The staffs need to be a bit more attentive to the customers. The biggest con here is some of the foods in the display aren't available at all the time. Parking space is enough for a few vehicles only.

    Disgusting, Bland, Low Quality food. Avoid this Junk Yard at Any Cost. Same Bland filling was used for, Chinese Rolls, Potato Bonda, and Samosa. The useless cook can not even make the basic sambar. The dosas were dry and would need to travel to Madras to fetch the urad dhal. The coconut chutneys were not ground properly, where chana dhal peices were still left a raw taste in the mouth. Don't rip people off by Fancy Names and Packaging. First get your act together source quality ingredients, and get a cook who could cook Proper Dravidian food, or shut the Joint down without misleading and ripping people off.

    Authentic south Indian vegetarian restaurant. I have tried dosa, idly, upuma & poori from here and all taste yummy. Their service is quick and friendly. The place is always busy and surrounded by delivery bikes which proves the demand for their food. Since it is located in Hamdan Lane, easy to park along the road and visit.

  • 3/5 Gugatharsan S. 5 years ago on Google
    Waiters in this restaurant doesn't care about its customers. You had to wait long time to order foods even there's not much customers around. good thing about this restaurant is short eat items like vadai, samosa etc. After you had your food always careful about your bill. Sometimes they bill much than you had.. This happened for me 2-3 times.

    Verdict: buy takeaway, don't sit n eat. Rude staff Pros: cheap. Variety of Indian food. All vegetarian. Vadai is very tasty. Lunch rice n curry has nice combinations. Generally very tasty food Cons: hygiene is far from cry. Too much oil. Can't sit and eat cos it's usually crowded and very hot. Staff are too rude. Uses tea which is substandard. If u sit n eat watch out for the bill carefully cos they overcharge you.

    I used to have breakfast. Amachi got various dishes served with side dishes. What I found most of the time either main dish or side dish is vary salty. Seating arrangement is not great and cooking area is closer to seating area and feel hot environment. Should maintain the hygienic environment.

  • 1/5 rajesh v. 3 months ago on Google • 7 reviews New
    We ordered food through Uber but they are worst and cheaters. Instead of order several varieties of dosa, they have just just plain dosas. Quality is also not so great. Though they don’t have all food as mentioned in the menu, they just try to accept order and deliver what they have. Refrain from ordering food from them

  • 5/5 Dayan W. 2 years ago on Google

    We went here for dinner with our parents,and of course this is not the first time I have visited with my family,a must place to try pure Vegetarian food,located In Wellawatte Hampden lane road side. There is no separate allocated CAR PARKING guys,you have to park in the main road.recommended for Take away,but they have a small dine in space around 4 or 5 tables. Washroom is not available at this place no Air condition.And more over the food is Good and average.Give it a try.😊

    Very very poor service… all the waiters are trying to be the owner

  • 4/5 Jay K. 1 year ago on Google
    Seems like a good place for vegetarian food. A vast variety of tiffin snacks, quick breakfast items like wade, rotis, chinese rolls etc, along with varieties of dosas, koththu, parathas and rotis. Today's lunch I got fresh from the stove. Red rice available too. If this place was a little bit tidier, nothing can beat them. Did not see a wash room. Staff are courteous and help with the orders if you are confused.

  • 1/5 Shatheesh S. 1 year ago on Google
    I paid 390 for three dosa. I feel totally waste of money. The food is poor. Very poor. Even I couldn't eat a half dose... really waste of money.

  • 1/5 Kitty S. 1 year ago on Google
    The food was too expensive and they are not clean.. the person touched the food with bare hands and also touched cash. The thosa was too sour and not hot at all. Nobody cares when we place a complaint.. unclean

  • 3/5 Nitheesram R. 4 years ago on Google
    Popular pure vegetarian restaurant in Wellawatte, Colombo. It is located in Hampden Lane near by KFC. Price are very low and has many varieties of food items. Managing huge crowd within a small space, but table service is at its worst. Recommending for breakfast and dinner and mostly for short-eats items. Rice and curry for lunch is worst among their foods.

    Good vegetarian food. Snacks are really tasty and served hot hot. Bit oily but you'll forget all those healthy short comings. Average neatness and service since it is crowded around the clock. Lunch and dinner too are fantastic however breakfast has the best options for dine in and take away. Ample parking available around hampden lane.
