    One of the most reputed Indian restaurants in Sri Lanka. It has lost its charm a little bit after the pandemic but I'm sure it will bounce back to how it felt at its prime. The food has a high price scale. Portions are decent. The ambience has a nice Indian vibe especially when there was Indian music. The service is also decent and welcoming. Overall it's recommended for a good Indian meal.. North Indian!!

    Well i just found a fly in my chicken biriyani 😀 the restaurant was super dark when i went to pick up my order which was a red flag on its on but no i had to get the food and eat almost all of it. Then there it was A FREAKIN FLY. Idc what the lighting in ur kitchen is but can u like make sure the food is hygienic. I HIGHLY DISCOURAGE ANYONE FROM EATING HERE. simply cuz food its extremely unhygienic and the space is too. What a shame to the indian cuisine

    Nice calm place which gives you a real Indian feeling. Soft music is being played and service was good. There is little bit of a delay of delivering the items may be because items are cooked fresh and serve. Food is tasty and real Indian taste contained.

    This place was recommend by a friend and the place was great. Surrounded with dim light and instrumental live music. Not much crowded, seems to be because of the lunch time. The food is based on north indian and the taste was really good. The staff also served well and friendly.

    Absolutely below average food. Service takes ages and food taste below par. Surprised with the high ratings. Went for lunch, had basic 3 or 4 dishes and it took 2 hours. Place was empty with only 1table occupied. Food nowhere close to Indian.

    Agra Indian Restaurant is a hidden gem in Colombo 07. It's an old-fashioned, cozy restaurant with ample space and a delightful seating arrangement. But what truly sets it apart is the incredible food. The menu boasts classic Indian flavors that will tantalize your taste buds. The friendly staff only adds to the charm of this place. If you're lucky, you might even catch some classical Indian music on selected days, which enhances the overall experience. Parking is ample and getting here is a breeze. I highly recommend Agra to anyone who loves a calm atmosphere and craves the authentic taste of classic Indian cuisine. It's a true culinary delight! #HiddenGem #IndianCuisine #CozyAtmosphere

    Great place to rest and meet your buddies and family. Alcohol friendly. Various North Indian dishes. I liked their service. They made Allu Palak with no spice for my 3 year old kid . Their Naans are but small but very soft

    Used to be a very good joint for Indian food, now disgusting joint with rats. Made a complaint no feedback, called the manager apparently managed is too busy to return the call. Have a look at the picture which was captured while I was waiting for my food, this was the first cabin to the left from the entrance. Simply disappointing…

    I have visited the place many times, but my recent visit is horrible in their pricing. It just increased 3 times higher with a down grade of food taste. Hopefully not going again for getting a horrible experience.

    Went there for dine in. Superb food, everything was soo tasty and well served. But expensive items. And also i Went around 11:30am and went with my Canadian relatives. Bit disappointed, because everything was gloomy, all the setup was to work after evening hrs. Candles lights and pool setups. They felt the restaurant was gloomy and boring. If only they could light up at least during lunch hrs.

    My recent dining experience at Agra Colombo was nothing short of exceptional. The restaurant beautifully encapsulates the flavors and authenticity of Indian cuisine. From the moment I stepped in, I was greeted with warm hospitality and a delightful ambiance that set the stage for a memorable meal. The menu offered a diverse range of Indian dishes, and the flavors were outstanding. The spices were perfectly balanced, and the ingredients tasted fresh. I particularly enjoyed the butter chicken and garlic naan, which were incredibly flavorful and cooked to perfection. The service was impeccable; the staff was knowledgeable and attentive, providing recommendations and ensuring that our dining experience was top-notch. The presentation of the dishes was also impressive, showing great attention to detail. Agra Colombo is a must-visit for anyone who appreciates the rich and diverse flavors of Indian cuisine. Whether you’re a long-time fan of Indian food or new to it, the restaurant’s culinary expertise will leave you craving for more. I highly recommend it for a memorable dining experience.

    The restaurant was quite empty when we visited but I imagine it's a fun place to be when it's full. Service was quick and the food is flavoursome.

  • 5/5 sudha l. 10 months ago on Google
    I had a great experience with listening light live music in this hotel. The food was delicious and authentic. The mutton biriyani is just melting in the mouth and I never had such taste. The surrounding is so pleasant.

  • 5/5 Rahul s. 10 months ago on Google
    The place has a nice appearance. The food was tasty. Specially the bamboo biriyani. The service is good. The staff was pleasant and nice. The portions of the food are good. The place could have a little more space for the people at the tables.

  • 1/5 Nayoma de s. 2 years ago on Google
    This was a lovely place but it has lost its quality. I took my parents for my fathers birthday as they enjoyed the music there on an early date. Sadly music is only played during the weekend now and the whole purpose of going there was lost. Mostly why I want to check this today is that they said my card got declined which is to my surprise as I have enough credit on it. And when I said that to the person , he said , the earlier card was successful and he took out a receipt from his pocket. Luckily I had cash. But when I came home, I thought why does he has a credit card receipt of a customer in his pants. Looking at the reviews here, I found that it has been reported by another. There may be others who actually wouldn't want to make a review. I hope this would read by the top management and look in to this matter as to what is the actual story behind for them to say like this, whether the card machine is not working or they really want cash. I will be checking with my bank today as I couldn't get through to them last night. This was a place I used to go. But with the recent incident , I doubt I will ever go again as I am not happy !

    I recently dined at Agra Colombo and was very pleased with the experience. The food was delicious and authentic, with a wide variety of Indian dishes to choose from. The atmosphere was calm and relaxing, making it a great spot for small group gatherings. The service was top-notch and the staff were very friendly and accommodating. Overall, I would highly recommend Agra Colombo for anyone looking for delicious Indian food in a tranquil setting.

    This place is extremely run down and the experience was really bad. Food quality has dropped drastically and not what it used to be pre covid.

    A calm and relaxed place to taste the richness of Indian cuisine..

  • 4/5 Imosh D. 1 year ago on Google
    I highly recommend this place for a couples dinner. Ambience is great, dim light, excellent instrumental live music (classical songs). The food is north indian based and is good. The biriyani I got was a little underwhelming but the naan and the curries were excellent. The service is okay. But I would go there for just music.

  • 5/5 Sapna K. 2 years ago on Google

  • 1/5 Manas M. 2 years ago on Google
    Pathetic experience. Wouldn't recommend to anyone. From customer service to food taste & quality, everything is ridiculous.

  • 1/5 Renuke M. 1 month ago on Google • 2 reviews New
    Worse place that you can go for a meal. Very poor service and the food was extremely below average Credit card machines don't work. They request the customer to go to an ATM and bring cash. Extremely unprofessional place. Don't go and don't let anyone that you know of waste their money in this place.
