The restaurant, which is said to be one of the oldest Sri Lankan curry shops in Tokyo, was established in 1991. Located just a few minutes' walk from Naka-Meguro Station South Exit, the exterior is easily recognizable, and upon entering, you are greeted with an authentic local atmosphere. For lunch, they offer a plate with a main dish, main curry, and side dishes, as well as curry sets. This time, I tried the "Mutton Curry Set" which comes with a choice of main dish and additional options. I added "Paratha" to my set, bringing the total to 1,160 yen. The set includes mutton curry, vegetable curry, jasmine rice, salad, dessert, and Paratha. The Paratha, a type of Indian bread made from wheat flour, had a soft and layered texture. The mutton curry was flavorful and refreshing, with a hint of South Indian influence. The vegetable curry was mild and creamy, thanks to the coconut milk. The jasmine rice was served on a large plate, allowing for the curry and salad to be enjoyed together. The owner mentioned that this way of eating is rare, but it is the standard in Sri Lanka. After finishing the meal, I was treated to a delicious original dessert made with sesame and cashews in a milk base. The flavor and texture were exceptional, making it a standout dish on its own. It was a delightful dining experience.

I have used this restaurant several times, but this time I ordered the plate for the first time. It came with a menu the size of a business card, listing the contents of the side dishes. The vegetables were all very sweet, but the spiciness quickly followed! The Sri Lankan vegetables and Murunga (produced in Chiba Prefecture) mixed well with the other side dishes. I could eat this every day... I will definitely come back again.

I had the Sri Lankan Home Style Plate for 1,490 yen. Today I tried the Sri Lankan curry. This plate comes with 5 types of ingredients and 1 topping. Today's plate included: Chicken & Squid Curry, Eggplant Curry, Sweet Potato & Pumpkin Curry, Spicy Stir-Fried Daikon Radish, Cucumber Salad, and Lentil Crisps. The Eggplant Curry and Spicy Stir-Fried Daikon Radish were spicy, while the Vegetable Curry was sweet, creating a good balance. Delicious.

There is a long-standing shop in Nakameguro. I have visited a few times at night, but this was my first time for lunch. I ordered the curry set, which comes with two types of curry - vegetable curry automatically included. It also comes with a mini salad and dessert, so it's not bad in terms of cost performance. I like spicy food (I can handle double the spiciness of Hokkaido's Jigoku curry), so I asked for the chicken curry to be spicy. They probably added some ghost pepper spice, and it was deliciously spicy within a manageable range. The authentic taste was very delicious.

First Sri Lankan cuisine! When you visit, there is only one option to order... the Home Style Plate (1470 yen)! It looks cute and is perfect for those who want to try various Sri Lankan dishes for the first time. The contents may vary depending on the day. In Sri Lanka, they eat this by mixing it with their hands, but I tried each dish separately and then mixed it with a spoon. It was packed with plenty of vegetables, so I think it's a nutritious plate. The spices are also strong, making it a perfect lunch for the summer when you don't have much appetite. Finally, dessert was included, and on this day it was coconut milk strawberry ice cream. It was really delicious, and I could feel the seriousness put into the dessert. They also have roti, which is rare, so next time I want to try their regular curry as well.

The food is still delicious as always!!! I returned from Sri Lanka just a week ago and visited this place. After going to the original place, I can say that the curry here is authentic!! Everything is delicious and there are plenty of vegetables. They even serve dessert! I love how they always write today's curry menu by hand, it's heartwarming. However, when I went for lunch after a long time, I noticed that the prices had gone up. But it's okay because it's delicious. The prices are like Japan. The staff is friendly and they kept refilling my water. I will definitely go back to eat here again♪

The exterior may look a bit cheap, but once you step inside, you'll be amazed by the beautiful decorations! Colorful patterns on the ceiling, paintings and statues on the walls. Various spices are displayed under the glass on the tables. The chairs, lighting, and furnishings are exotic, increasing anticipation for the food. ■Order details - Beef curry (Paratha) 1290 yen Comes with vegetable curry, salad, and dessert. The beef curry has tender meat cooked in strong spices. The Paratha goes well with it. The vegetable curry is made with potatoes simmered in coconut milk and spices, mild with a nice accent. This is really to my liking. Paratha is made by stretching chapati, spreading ghee, folding, and grilling. It's messy but delicious and filling. The salad is lightly seasoned with spices for a unique touch. The dessert is yogurt with coconut honey drizzled on top. Everything was delicious and satisfying. ■According to the article, this is the oldest Sri Lankan restaurant in Tokyo, established in 1991.

At Seirun Inn in Nakameguro, the Ambul Thiyal with bonito, the Fish Curry with swordfish, Paratha, and Wattalappam were all delicious. A seafood feast that was truly amazing. I also had Masala Chai (*'▽'*). I heard they don't drink it in Sri Lanka, but I love the rich flavor and astringency of Chai made with Ceylon tea leaves!

I went on a Saturday night. I didn't make a reservation, but there were about 7 table seats and it was about half full, so I was able to sit down right away. I started with the avocado salad, which was listed as the most popular item on the menu. It had avocado, apples, pineapples, and other fruits, and felt more like a dessert than a salad. There were about 5 snack options, so I ordered the snack assortment. It was bigger than I expected, and between the avocado salad and the snack assortment, I felt reasonably full. The snacks were mostly things like croquettes and minced cutlets, lightly flavored with curry. They were all freshly fried and very delicious. The chicken biryani had a fried egg(?) in the middle and was also very filling. I couldn't finish everything, so I decided to take the leftovers home. The chicken in the biryani was tender and very tasty. The fish stew had tender meat and I ate it with naan. Many customers around me were ordering curry, so I want to try that next time.

Located about a 5-minute walk from Naka-Meguro Station, this restaurant has a charming exterior and interior. I wanted to go to a nearby Western-style restaurant (Punch), but there were about 10 people lined up after 12 o'clock, so I gave up. I'll try again next time. Ordered: Sri Lanka Plate (with dessert) ¥1,470 You mix three types of curry and two side dishes as you eat. The taste changes as you scoop it up, so I really like Sri Lankan curry. The taste is spicy and a little hot. Today there was a pineapple curry, which added a nice sweetness. The plate contents change daily, so I look forward to it next time. Thank you for the meal.

Every dish is delicious and I was impressed! I ordered several types of curry and enjoyed mixing them together. The chili dishes are quite spicy. The display of spices on the table is stylish! I would like to try their lunch menu next time.

While searching for a lunch spot in Naka-Meguro, I came across a Sri Lankan restaurant. It was my first time trying Sri Lankan cuisine, so I decided to go for their special dish, the Sri Lankan Home Style Plate for ¥1,380. It was a variety of side dishes surrounding rice, allowing me to mix and match or eat them separately, which was enjoyable. However, personally, it didn't quite suit my taste. The service was good though!

Forget about Sri Lanka or foreign cuisine, this place is just insanely delicious. The combination and use of ingredients in Sri Lankan dishes stimulate your taste buds and sense of smell with a variety of spices. I've tried many foreign cuisines at different restaurants, but this place is exceptional. They also offer a wide variety of drinks loved by Sri Lankans.

I visited during a slightly late lunch time and had no problem getting a table. I ordered the mutton curry naan set, which came with a daily curry, salad, and dessert - a complete lunch set. The mutton curry was flavorful with just the right amount of spice and chunks of meat, which I personally enjoyed. The daily curry was a bit sweet, providing a nice balance (and since it changes daily, it seems like there's always something new to try). The naan was more on the crispy side than fluffy, which I liked. Just a heads up, even the medium spice level is quite spicy, so be careful. The restaurant has a nice atmosphere and has been around for over 30 years, so I recommend it.

One of the top Sri Lankan restaurants in Tokyo, where dinner mainly consists of a la carte dishes. I once went alone for a meal and found that no matter how much money I had, I couldn't order enough to fill me up. However, during lunchtime, they offer a one-plate rice & curry dish. It's the best!

I went to see the cherry blossoms along the Meguro River. It was very crowded even though it was a weekday. I waited for 1 hour at "I'm donut - Nakameguro Store" so it was already past noon when I got in. On 3/24, Friday, around 12:40, the place was 80% full, then full, then no wait. It seemed like a good time to go, but it was still quite busy. We ordered the "Sri Lankan Home Style Plate" which came with dessert. We all ordered almost the same thing. The waitress was Japanese, but the kitchen staff spoke Sri Lankan. The seating was a bit cramped, especially the seats under the stairs. There were places to store belongings and hang coats. The food arrived in about 5 minutes. It was interesting to see a fried egg on top of the curry. There were no papadums this time. The plate had a paper listing the contents, which was helpful. Today's plate included mustard-flavored chicken curry, carrot and enoki curry, Sri Lankan dried fish and radish stir-fry, bitter gourd curry, burdock and coconut milk sambol, and Sri Lankan omelette (topping). The chicken curry with mustard was delicious with a good level of spiciness. The dried fish surprisingly went well with the curry and was tasty. For dessert, we had a mix of finely diced fruits in sweet syrup - apple, pineapple, banana, mango, and maybe peach. It was a nice sweet ending after the curry. In 2020, a wrestler named Takuto visited the restaurant and created his own curry which was added to the menu. It seems like a hidden menu item. I would like to try it next time. The restaurant also has a diverse a la carte menu, so I might come back for dinner next time. Thank you for the meal.

Seilon Inn, founded in 1991, is one of the most famous Sri Lankan restaurants in the area. Run by a Sri Lankan husband and a Japanese wife, the restaurant is located an 8-minute walk from Naka-Meguro Station. The interior has a unique and slightly dim atmosphere, with decorations from Sri Lankan festivals. The kitchen is bustling with Sri Lankan conversations, making you feel like you're in Sri Lanka. The menu offers a variety of Sri Lankan dishes at relatively reasonable prices. During lunchtime, I ordered the Sri Lankan Home Style Plate (with dessert), which changes daily. The plate included: - Mutton Black Curry - Pineapple Curry - Spiced Stir-Fried Daikon - Spinach and Lentil Curry - Cabbage and Coconut Mallung - Fried Lentil Chips - Jasmine Rice The portion was generous, and for only 1380 yen in such a prime location like Naka-Meguro, it's a great deal. Plus, dessert was included. The Mutton Black Curry was rich and flavorful, with a depth of flavors that was both intense and refreshing. The mutton was delicious... I can't wait to try more Sri Lankan dishes next time. Thank you for the meal.

Visit before 12 pm on weekdays. Today's plate is a bit pricey at 1,380 yen, but it's worth recommending with its perfect balance of sweetness, acidity, spiciness, moisture, and oil. Stir-fried eggplant, coconut, and carrots with spices, and more... The fluffy basmati rice is also a nice touch.

Hello. I am the self-proclaimed Curry King. November 27th. I invaded the long-established Sri Lankan restaurant "Ceylon Inn" in Naka-Meguro. - Spicy Soup: Also known as Rasam. This may be the first time I have ordered Rasam at a Sri Lankan restaurant. It is spicy, sour, and spicy with a strong peppery taste. The garlic and tomato are not as prominent as the powerful peppery flavor. Maybe adding lime is also good? - Dhal Curry - Indi Appam - Pol Sambol Have you ever eaten Dhal Curry at a Sri Lankan restaurant? Even though it is called Dhal Curry, Sri Lankan Dhal Curry is completely different from Indian Dhal Curry. In fact, Nepalese Dhal or Bangladeshi Dhal are also completely different. Sri Lankan Dhal Curry is not spicy and has a rich flavor of lentils and coconut, sometimes called "parippu." I like to eat this Dhal Curry with Indi Appam. Adding acidity and spiciness with Pol Sambol while eating makes it even tastier. Spicy Sri Lankan curry is good, but I also enjoy mild spicy Sri Lankan curry. "Ceylon Inn" has been serving Sri Lankan cuisine for over 30 years, even before Sri Lankan cuisine became as well-known as it is today. It was around the time when I had my first kiss. It happened in a corner of the parking lot.

The curry restaurant has a spicy but deep flavor, giving off a genuine taste of a national dish. It seems to have a high threshold, as even though we were the only customers at first, there were many people peeking in from outside, looking at the menu, observing the situation, and a few groups eventually came in. It might be like that on a Saturday evening.

Friday 1st meal After a long time, I had dinner with a friend and we decided to try Sri Lankan cuisine. We ordered a Sri Lankan black beer for 600 yen, several glasses of white wine for 600 yen each, Cashew Nut Curry for 1430 yen. The cashews were incredibly soft and the texture was very pleasant, a new experience for me. The curry was mild and not spicy. We also had Chicken Biryani for 1650 yen, which I love and hadn't had in a while. It's fun how the taste varies slightly depending on the restaurant. We also ordered Goudan Baroti for 495 yen, which was a thin, chewy bread with a hint of sweetness, perfect with the Cashew Nut Curry. For appetizers, we had Eggplant Salad for 1435 yen. I also enjoyed the Pork Belly and Cartilage Stew for 990 yen, it was so tender and satisfying, I could eat it endlessly. We finished off with a Cheese Something for an unknown price. I was so full, we arrived at 7:30 pm and stayed until closing time, eating, drinking, and chatting. It was delicious, thank you for the meal! *The next day, we also had Sri Lankan cuisine... lol
