  • 5/5 Rewant L. 1 year ago on Google
    amazing Sri Lankan restaurant in Stuttgart! Went here for the chicken kottu porota, then had to come back again another evening for the full spread. The elhawalu noodles, the jumbo prawn curry, parothas, dhal and kandy chicken was really really good. The service team is super friendly and helpful with order recommendations. The kitchen team is Sri Lankan too, which ensures the food is authentic and super homely. A sure shot sign of this is the freshness of the spice mix they use here. Generally, important to note the distinct Sinhalese flavors here are not at all like South Indian or North Indian flavors, which is what makes La Bamboo unique for its location. So best not to walk in here expecting chicken tikka masala and dal makhani.

    Great and authentic sri Lankan cuisine. The staff was extremely friendly and the dishes amazing. Every single dish captures a portfolio of different flavors and is unique and addictive. The spice levels can be adjusted based on a scale so anyone that is complaining about that really cant talk because it was their own foolishness that they took a spice level they couldn’t handle. Loved everything here and I recommend anyone in stuttgart heck in Germany to come here it is really worth a trip. 10/10 would come very regularly if I lived here!!!

    My normal go-to is the takeout joint around the corner, Laxmy, but we decided to enjoy a dining out experience at La Bamboo, in Stuttgart West, to expand our typical routine. Sri Lankan & Southern Indian food offer much different flavors and ingredients than most Punjabi Indian restaurants. If you enjoy fish, coconut and more tangy sauces, it’s definitely going to please you. We stayed with the Sri Lankan Spring rolls (delicious!) and then the Krabben Töpfchen, which was like a rich, turmeric shrimp bisque. We shared potato dosai (served with lentil crepes) and Devil Shrimp. They asked how spicy we wanted it & we told them to not hold back. After several, repeated warnings, they finally agreed to serve us Sri Lankan spicy, when we told them that we were not German 🤣 The spice was powerful, but really well balanced. They also had great cocktails and Arrak, a spirit made from fermented palm flower sap. Very friendly (and adorably concerned) staff, elegant presentation, delicious food. Menu is great for pescatarians, vegetarians & vegans. They do offer meat options, too. They also offer DoorDash delivery, which is what tempted us to try it. They speak great German & English.

    🇱🇰 I'm my self is Sri Lankan and I know the Sri Lankan cuisine 😋 very well. So trust me here. Haha Best place ever and absolutely love the dishes they have. They do utilize authentic spices and traditional recepies that we do use in the island. Must try : Sri Lankan soursop juice can be ordered, then Pol Rotty (Coconut Rotty, my favorite 😍as well) Kottu also available (Typical Sri Lankan.) Devil chicken curry (it's a little spicy, but they'll adjust it for your tounge) I do recommend this place for anyone, Nora and Leonard (stewards) will explain you guys everything and also the chilli level😉 "Europian mittel scharf" is the best for all Europeans. Highly recommend you Guys, Go and enjoy 😘😘

    Food tastes good but the spice level is to the extreme level. The Lady serving foods here has an experience of working at the place for over many years and was kind enough to help us with the spice level. The ambience and the location of the restaurant is also good.

    Great food! The waiter was great and informative as well! Absolutely should try food! Don't expect Indian food - it is a Sinhalese restaurant and expect only awesome Sinhalese food.

    This is a Ceylonese special restaurant. The kothu rotti is different from the normal Kothu rotti which you get in srilankan restaurants. I was disappointed to see the frozen parottas which we get in Indian stores. The Spice level of the food is also high. The lady who is working there explains you in detail about the food if you are first time visitor.

    (Translated by Google) Great restaurant with delicacies from Sri Lanka. We came across La Bamboo by chance and are overjoyed to have finally found a restaurant that offers authentic Sri Lankan food. The atmosphere is very pleasant, everything is very hygienic and clean. The advice makes the difference, a lot of time is taken for the customer so that he / she finds the right dish. We wish you continued success. Thank you for the hospitality and definitely see you soon! (Original) Tolles Restaurant mit Köstlichkeiten aus Sri Lanka. Wir sind durch Zufall auf La Bamboo gestoßen und sind überglücklich endlich ein Restaurant gefunden zu haben, das authentisches Essen aus Sri Lanka anbietet. Das Ambiente ist sehr angenehm, alles sehr hygienisch und sauber. Die Beratung macht den Unterschied aus, es wird sich sehr viel Zeit für den Kunden genommen, damit er/sie das passende Gericht findet. Wir wünschen euch weiterhin viel Erfolg. Vielen Dank für die Gastfreundschaft und definitiv bis bald!

    We were lucky to get the last not reserved table on a holiday. The service was a bit slow and the food not really hot. Nevertheless it was very tasty and a nice dinner.

    Long waiting times and very slow service. Even though we made reservations and went, we had to wait for 40 min for food to be served on our table. Food taste was ok. Not worth the long wait and money. One additional star for compensating long waiting times with Lassi.

    (Translated by Google) What happened there? Curry sauce like a soup! Cutlets are now pockets. 3 instead of 4. The pockets are flat without a lot of filling! Cheapest breading! In the past it was thick balls with a batter and with TUNA! Has the owner changed there ?! Unfortunately we won't eat anything here! (Original) Was ist da passiert?Currysoße wie ne Suppe!Cutlets sind jetzt Taschen..3 statt 4..die Taschen sind flach ohne viel Füllung!Billigste Panade!früher waren es dicke Bällchen mit einem Teigmantel und mit THUNFISCH!

    The boss was unbelievable unfriendly and rude, basically this restaurant is not kids friendly They prefer to serve 2 adults than family with 2 kids. He basically kicked us out and siad there were no table that fits 5 guests and the table was not nice for the kid. He siad it was too loud for the kids to sit there. He could have made effort to put together the table for us, there were many 2seats table empty, he just did not want to serve us and bring all the excuses. My daughter (5) was traumatised from his action. No comments on the food since we did not try and would never visit there ever again.

  • 5/5 Neeraj K. 2 years ago on Google
    Food is delicious and spiced to perfection. We went in there expecting to find our usual Indian taste but were pleasantly surprised with an authentic Sri Lankan taste which appealed to us and made us feel right at home.The gracious hostess Nora gives the place a warm and homely feel. Very few places have appealed to us in terms of hospitality and this is definitely the best so far.

  • 4/5 Wetsch G. 2 years ago on Google
    [Pain the day after on the toilets] For a friend reunion we decided to go at this restaurant. Prices are good and food also. BE CAREFULL when they ask you how spicy do you want to eat ! I choose medium (european) and it was really really spicy ! Be aware of that otherwise great time there :)

  • 3/5 D Z. 1 year ago on Google
    We went there for lunch on a Sunday for the dosai, and they were pre-cooked and reheated, not made to order. It was quite disappointing, especially since there aren't many Sri Lankan places in Stuttgart, it's not like we could simply get our fix somewhere else. To give you some idea of what reheated dosai tastes like, it's like eating yesterday's pancake. It's edible and it tastes okay, but dry and crumbly instead of rich and pliable.

    Delicious food is very tasty. Highly recommended. Very clean and very good staff. I will come back sure. ❤ thank you very much for your delicious food

  • 5/5 Hertz V. 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful restaurant with top notch staff and delicious Sri Lankan food. Vegetable and vegan options, as well as traditional meat dishes. I started with the Vegetable soup "Sri Lanka Art" with fresh vegetables (carrots, leeks, white cabbage, onion, ginger) and coconut milk. Had a drink of tropical fruit. They have extensive fruit juices. Then ordered the Mas Devil with Elawalu Noodles. Spicy beef fried in fresh peppers, tomatoes, onions, garlic, ginger and exotic spices, served with vegetable noodles. If you’re an experienced spicy food traveler then get the European hot setting or Sri Lankan medium. My guess is Sri Lankan hot is reserved for the pros.

    The food was amazing, cooked to perfection and served with a family twist. It was my first attempt at tasting traditional Srilankan cuisine and I absolutely adored it. The entire experience was accompanied with a member of staff unveiling the secrecies of her traditional cuisine. Extremely friendly and eager to share her knowledge. Kudos for this. Oh, and also, you can book your table online. An efficient and easy way of making sure your table is waiting for you on your arrival.

    Food is really awesome. Never expect such tasty cuisine. It’s similar to Indian but totally different in making and tasting. Simply amazing food. Service is very friendly. You can easily get info about the cuisines there. Medium spicy level is good enough. Must try restaurant in Stuttgart.

  • 5/5 Pradyoth C J. 6 months ago on Google
    Authentic Sri Lankan flavors in somewhat unusual formats - for example, masala dosa with the dosa and masala separately 😁 but everything tasted great, and on request, was made to the authentic level of spice.

  • 1/5 Fitzroy S. 7 months ago on Google
    This is by far the stingiest Chinese restaurant we have ever been to, and on top they sell you everything even the little sauce Which normally you get for free. I would not recommend this place to anyone. Good luck.

    Best Sri Lankan food I've had in a long time, and I can't want to come back to La Bamboo! The extensive and affordable menu is perfect for sharing dishes, and the wait staff was fantastic for making recommendations. Good job Le bamboo restaurant! And thanks again to the awesome waiter who helped us during our visit.

    (Translated by Google) We were eating here for the first time and had to find out that it was a very good restaurant, the kitchen was above average and we liked it very much, the degree of spiciness was European hot, very hot but still very tasty and the service was also very courteous and attentive to us The food was shared and explained how it is composed in the whole of a restaurant that you definitely have to visit when you are there or if you are in the mood for Sri Lankan cuisine we will definitely be back (Original) Wir waren hier zum ersten Mal Essen und mussten feststellen dass es ein sehr gutes Restaurant die Küche war überdurchschnittlich gut und es hat uns mega gut geschmeckt vom Schärfegrad war europäische scharf schon sehr scharf aber trotzdem sehr lecker und der Service war auch sehr zuvorkommend und aufmerksam uns wurde teilt das Essen erklärt und wie es sich zusammensetzt im Ganzen ein Restaurant dass man auf jeden Fall besuchen muss wenn man dort ist oder wenn man auf srilankische Küche Lust hat wir werden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen

    The non veg dishes are really good and tasty with the authentic South Asian flavours. Not so impressed by the vegetarian dishes. The staff are friendly and communicative

  • 4/5 Justus B. 3 years ago on Google
    Delicious food for a fair price. Especially loved the variety of vegetarian and vegan dishes. Only downside was the service: waiters were somewhat hard to get a hold on (we waited a lot and went inside twice to talk to them). Maybe they were understaffed...

    (Translated by Google) La Bamboo is really a very good address and always excellent quality. The “to go offer” is also always great and extremely fresh and hot. The veggie dishes are also very fresh and clean. I can really only recommend the restaurant. No other restaurant can pack the food hot - so that you can still eat hot at home. (Original) La Bamboo ist wirklich eine sehr gute Adresse und immer eine hervorragende Qualität. Auch das „to go Angebot“ ist immer super und extrem frisch und heiß. Die veggie Speisen sind ebenfalls sehr frisch und clean. Ich kann das Restaurant wirklich nur weiterempfehlen. Kein anderes Restaurant kriegt es hin, das Essen heiß zu verpacken - so dass man zuhause noch heiß essen kann.
