We visited on Easter Sunday for the monthly vegan buffet - always on the last Sunday. You walk in up the stairs, which initially look and feel a bit grim - but persevere, and arrive at the restaurant. The decor was bright and reflected the Sri Lankan culture. We chose to sit in a booth which was comfortable and intimate. The service was excellent - attentive and friendly. The buffet was set out really well, everything was clearly labelled. The choice was fantastic, so many starters, mains, and desserts on offer; everything vibrant and fresh. The food was delicious and it was great to try so many different dishes. It’s all you can eat for 19.95 and you can definitely make the most of this as there is no feeling of being rushed. The vegan buffet starts at 2pm but before this there is an omnivorous buffet available. There is no cross contamination issues as there is a break between so all food on offer after 2 is definitely vegan. Highly recommended!

Had a wonderful experience at Ayubowan. Food was delicious! Starters were full of flavor and were a good variety to choose from. Lamb curry was also flavorful and tender. Good service and a friendly atmosphere.

We loved it! Will be coming back here again for sure. We ordered the vegan abula and the spinach and lentil curry for mains. We took the leftovers home to leave space for dessert. I loved the Wattalappam and we thought the shovel-spoons were very cute. I'd never had Sri Lankan food before and came away very satisfied. Staff were friendly and attentive. The decor was colourful and the music wasn't too loud. The only negative was the design of the table- the central pillar was a bit too big so we kept bumping into it when trying to stretch our legs out, which caused us to almost knock our glasses over a few times!

So I ordered off Just Eat, I realised I had ordered the wrong drink they said they didn't have the drink so we changed the order on the phone the person who came to the door was lovely and the food, oh my gosh the Aubergine Moju was out of this world and the Wattalapam, when I come back i will buy a whole car full it was literally that good. I got a taste of everything including the lamb patties. My one and only nit pick is the onion bajis we're abit burnt BUT they were free so you can't complain.
