5 stars for the delicious food and the superb service. I was delighted to find that they are not just southeast Asian, but specifically Sri Lankan, which is a sadly rare ethnic cuisine to find, because it is delicious. There was a minor issue with my meal, which I didn't even consider worth bringing up, but the server noticed and replaced my dish. They apologized repeatedly, and covered our entire alcohol tab. If I'd known I would have had less wine! They really went above and beyond. I'm not sure why they are described as a vegetarian restaurant. We did get vegetarian meals (the Mango & Plaintain Curry, and the Mixed Vegetables in Curry) and they were great, not sad concessions at all. But it looked from their menu like they specialize in seafood. The location on Front St is unfortunate, because they surpass in quality just about every restaurant I've visited on the more charming Pacific Ave and side streets. It looks like they opened not too long ago, so I hope they do well enough that they can move to a better location.

The fusion of sri lankan food. The devil shrimp was good not spicy though, and the msian fried rice was awesome. The masala chai can be improved as we expected strong steamimg tea with more spice flavours, but it was quite subtle. Otherwise loved their potato dosai, Kerala fish. The owners were awesome too.

In August 2011, i bought my sister a Malabar gift card for her birthday. It took her a while to get to Malabar. She had cancer and found it hard to get around. When she finally made it, she invited a friend to join her and told me they had a wonderful time, treated very well and their meals were absolutely delicious. She passed away the year after. Thank you Malabar Kitchen for treating her and her guest so well and making delicious dishes. Sorry it has taken this long to express my appreciation. Everyone please buy gift cards in advance from Malabar. Live and respect to the owners and staff.

We were waiting during 40min to be served (time of table preparation 20min and 20min for the server..), the fact that we were with 2yo hungry boy didn’t help us to be served quicker. Firstly they served our child (very salty soup), then my husband and then me with the wrong dish. I had to ask to replace it and finally I ate alone (my husband finished his plate before mine arrived). The food in general was not exceptional, the salmon was not wild caught as it was written in the menu, rice was too sticky and as I said previously they put too much salt.

Vegetarian menu.. Good, friendly and an almost unique homely-like service... dessert is different every two weeks and is special... food was good...
