Great experience,
Worst thing in the restaurant is the space it's very small comparing with the popularity of there food..
Food was really amazing, it was first time for me to have this type of meal..
The waiting list is really really long, Try to reserve your table before arriving.
It won't be my last time here, I'll try to come again.

This is a good restaurant if you're looking for a change. I tried their butter chicken, chicken biryani, chicken tikka, and tikka masala. The butter chicken was the worst of the dishes in my opinion due to it's predominantly sweet taste, it was okay if you prefer it like that but not for me, the chicken tikka was very delicious, it's well seasoned and you can taste that it was grilled which added to the flavor. The tikka masala was the best dish in my opinion, it's well seasoned, the chicken is soft and tinder and it had a hint of spiciness which added more to the flavor. The biryani was delicious and it came like we ordered which is hot, it was eye watering hot so if you're not a spicy lover don't get it hot. The mango lassi was okay with nothing special in my opinion.

Sad to rank this establishment 2/5, but unfortunately can’t give it more. I ordered 2 food dishes and a sparkling water. Let’s start with the lamb chops first, they appear to have been over tenderised as the meat was almost a powder, there was no characteristic lamb texture that you would expect. Flavour was good however, it could have done with more crunch on the outside. I also ordered the Chicken Kothu, the texture was great, but flavour was very much one dimensional. For the prices being paid and the stellar reviews I was really expecting authentic Sri Lankan cuisine, however this appears to be more of a place to take Instagram photos than enjoy spectacular food.

We tried their ginger & lemonade drink I found the pineapple to be overpowering. We ordered their butter chicken which was tasty as expected. Their lamb shank korma was really tasty. ( the amount of lamb added was considered good) We also ordered a side of garlic naan & flaky chapati which were both good. Their samosa was delicious 😋.Their prices are expensive.

I absolutely loved this place! I went in expecting it to be good and it turned out great. The atmosphere in the place is so cool, the service is amazing and the food is some of the best I have had. The biryani is usually the most underwhelming dish in the menu but not here. And you must try the dhal makani I was jaw-dropping good. The only think that I would not order again is the potato salad I forgot the name but it was too sweet for my liking for a savory dish. Although they did warn me 😅 highly recommended I would definitely go back and try more things on the menu. Also the prices and very reasonable considering the quality and portions compared to other places in msheirib.

Nourlaya menu is mixed from Indian and sir lankan cuisine. Dishes are very delicious 😋 and good for sharing 2-3 person. Recommended dishes to go with is below 👇🏻
