La Bamboo in Stuttgart

Very good, interesting food with extremely friendly staff. The dishes and their composition were always explained. Can recommend!

Nice restaurant, had good time, thanks Doctor

Authentic Sri Lankan cuisine. The Kotthu tasted like it was in Sri Lanka😊 Absolutely recommended!

Simple restaurant in terms of space but wonderfully authentic food! Only recommended. The service was a bit unfriendly last time - for the first time. Therefore one point deducted.

We went to La Bamboo for the first time a few days ago. Both the service, the advice and the food were excellent. The restaurant was very well attended on a Thursday evening, which more than speaks for itself for a restaurant with a 23-year history in Stuttgart. Absolutely recommended!! We'd love to come back.

We stopped by for lunch. Everything was great. Thank you for your interest.

People-people! To be honest, I have no idea where the numerous 5 star reviews come from?! The service is relatively friendly and nice. But I come for the food and not primarily for the ancient creaky chairs or the service. Sorry, tasteless food! In my case the food tasted completely like ketchup. The whole thing is pretty bland food, even with fresh tomatoes, but probably Dutch produce, just bland. There were almost no spices - but there was a lot of salt. The red lentils we ordered were yellow instead of red, cooked almost to death and wonderfully oversalted. CONCLUSION: I don't want to spoil anyone's joy, but it was the last time we were there.

Here you can find very, very tasty Sri Lankan food in a variety of levels of spiciness. You will also be advised when choosing the level of spiciness, because not every meal tastes too spicy. My companion also found her vegetarian dish very tasty as it was perfectly seasoned. Overall a top restaurant. I really enjoy coming here and can only recommend it to anyone who likes Asian cuisine.

Food authentic and spiciness scale available and quite realistic. Service was very friendly, but not always there. Furnishings are more like a scooter furnishings market. Prices ok for the west of Stuttgart. Not a highlight for me personally, as rice, noodles and meat with hot sauce in various presentations are relatively easy to put on your plate at home. You can go there if you like that and don't want to cook quickly yourself.

Very tasty, authentic Sri Lankan restaurant. I think it's particularly cool that you can specify the spiciness you want for each dish. We are there often and are always happy to come back.

Dommage pour les cheveux dans le tiramisu même pas un mot d’excuse et même pas le café offert pas très sympa à éviter pour moi

Food good, service unfortunately anything but good and payment only possible in cash or with EC card (device accepts credit card payment but staff does not allow this)

Haben uns spontan für einen Besuch und uns dann für den Geheimtipp vom Chefkoch für zwei Personen entschieden (Beed Devil, Chicken-Cury, Dhal Curry, Gemüse-Curry mit Basmatireis mit Papadam). Wegen der gewünschten Schärfe wurden wird vom Service toll beraten. Alle Gerichte waren sehr lecker.

Nice little restaurant in Stuttgart. It's a rather unassuming place from the outside with a few tables on the sidewalk - but the food is great. You should just say very clearly whether you want spicy or European seasoning.😅. For me it was exactly right.

They don't play around with their spicy levels here! If you like spicy South Asian food, then this is the place for you! I had the tiger prawn curry, which I liked, but I think it is a good idea to get food to share because the quantity is abundant, and just keep in mind that their food IS spicy (even the European level had a kick to it and Sri Lankan medium spicy is when it gets 🔥😭). Customer service was excellent! They all spoke English, were friendly, and checked in on us often and even cracked a few jokes here and there. If you do take away leftover food, then they will charge you pfand for the takeout box, which you can get back if you return the takeaway container with the ticket they give to you. (I was charged 1€). Only cash and EC card are accepted here. They have plenty of seating available both indoors and outdoors, so reservations are not necessarily required. Overall, would visit again and recommend to others.

Super tasty, nice service, always happy!

The soup I ordered contained black carrots. There was no response to my complaint. in view of d. Prices small Portion size + My request for dishes not to be prepared too dark was (partly) followed.

Very cool shop with friendly service and great food.

First time eating Sri Lankan food and not disappointed. There was a wide variety of different Sri Lankan food. You can also choose the level of spiciness. The food was flavorful and served quickly. The service was friendly! All in all great! I can only recommend.

Good food, different levels of spiciness. Price performance top.

Great, but you should add a starter.

starter was delicious. but the quantity of Rindfleisch is too less to find. we took sri-lankisch mittelscharf for both the biriyanis. both were below average for three of us. being a person who can cook biriyanis… I felt their biriyani masalas was not cooked properly. we could feel the powdery taste. Basically this is definitely not the best or exceptional biriyani in Stuttgart. tiger prawn dish was good according to it‘s name. but the parathas were burnt and felt more like papadum. We also took mango lassi and cola. Cola comes in glasses and mango lassi was average. Disappointment is that my friend went to the counter to ask if they serve any yoghurt or pickle with the biriyani, there was one lady there who does not seem to be Sri Lankan replied in a way that my friend had never tasted biriyanis! She said Indians can‘t take scharf dishes we know but Bangladeshis can etc. Me and my husband are Bangladeshi,but the way she replied to our friend seemed offensive to us. after saying these she gave us yoghurt but then charged 2.90euro for that. 😅

Very good food, large selection. The service is great. The information about the level of spiciness is helpful :-)

Fantastic food, great location in the west, very attentive and exceptionally friendly service. Recommendation: the “culinary tour” for anyone who can’t or doesn’t want to decide.

Best Authentic Sri Lankan food you can find in Stuttgart

After eating I had diarrhea and my stomach still hurt

Amazing food!! Lots of vegetarian and vegan options. The vibe is good and the staff friendly. Also the mango lassi is great.

We always enjoy eating here. The selection of vegan dishes is numerous; Level of spiciness can be individually selected. Price-performance is great and the service is very friendly. We particularly recommend the pancakes with coconut filling - for me the best dessert ever!

It was a very pleasant surprise. At first, I couldn't believe that this was a top-rated Indian-ish place in Stuttgart, but it turned out to be indeed very good. Chicken curry was very tender, not very spicy, and not as oily as a more typical Indian place. Will definitely be coming back.

Sehr leckeres Essen, das man in verschiedenen Schärfegraden auswählen kann. Das Servicepersonal ist sehr freundlich und die preise sind absolut angemessen.

+very good service +Large selection with different levels of sharpness +many vegetarian/vegan dishes -older furniture/furnishings Recommendation: Bandakka curry or sweet-sour chicken with paratha

Very pleasant restaurant. At the end, very exciting cuisine that gives a lot. These employees were all very child-friendly and in a good mood. Lots of vegan dishes. All in all a highly recommended store.

I ordered food, it was okay and expensive.

I love this store. Everything fits here. Service top and attentive. Eating is something different. Not the Asian uniformity. If you love spicy, dare. 5 levels available. How many times have I been there? Definitely 20 times.

The service quality is best in the town. I tried the bamboo special dish and I could easily say it's delicious. I would recommend this restaurant for food quality and hospitality. Special mention to the service lady made sure we're comfortable. Must visit!

I recently went to La Bamboo with some of my friends because I was craving for some real Sri Lankan food and I am really glad that I chose that place that night to have some dinner. I reserved that place beforehand because this place gets packed really fast. The place has a nice, cozy atmosphere and you can enjoy your evening in peace. Most importantly, the food really exceeded my expectations (coming from a Sri Lankan). I would highly reccommend the dhal curry (parippu) and the kandy chicken. There is a variety of Sri Lankan dishes you can choose from. It really felt like I am back in Sri Lanka! The service staff were very friendly and the staff always clarified and explained more about the dishes. Moreover, there are different spice levels you can choose from and they would gladly help you with it. So all in all, I would definitely recommend you this place if u want to try out a different cuisine and I would visit this place again in the near future.

Best Sri Lankashe Restaurant!! Good food, nice team.. 👌

Too overwhelming spice powder usage Not recommended for indians

I celebrated my birthday here and was super satisfied. The food was extremely tasty, the atmosphere is cozy and the staff was very nice :)

There are many vegetarian and vegan options as well as different types of meats. They also offer different levels of spiciness. The flavor combinations are spectacular.

We started off a bit skeptical because there are very few authentic Ceylonish restaurants in Stuttgart. This one was a pleasant surprise. The ambience inside is really nice. The bathroom is clean. There is a wide variety of dishes available with vegan and vegetarian options. The best part is the levels of spiciness that are available; at all other places, even Indian spicy isn't spicy enough, but here, even European spicy is quite hot. The dishes are not exactly spicy, but really strong in terms of the masalas, and so they seem quite hot. But the portions are huge. I tried the Aloo Masala with Dosai, and wish the Dosai could have been served hot. Our server was spot on with her recommendations. Overall, quite a good place.

Very tasty food. Sri Lankan, Indian cuisine

Patient, friendly and accommodating! Delicious dishes and new flavors! If there are more than 2 people, you should consider the "round trip" or the "insider tip from the chef": there is plenty, you get a good overview of the cooking culture and starters and desserts are included. Have the ice cream for dessert. PS: We consumed an above-average number of drinks, hence the higher price per person.

Food was tasty, it has different types of taste and variety. Service was also okay.

Very good Sri Lankan food with different levels of spiciness from mild to European hot to Sri Lanka hot. Large selection of dishes, dishes for sharing are highly recommended.

Great Sri Lankan 🇱🇰 restaurant with authentic cuisine that is rich and tastes great!

great food and large variety of options. Moreover you can easily reserve a table online. the staff is very attentive and friendly

Very tasty food in a simple atmosphere. Prices are fair, service is friendly and attentive. When it comes to the spiciness of the dishes, you can choose different levels; advice is recommended.

Ordered food to go. Not only was the food expensive for it's size but the Yellow Chicken curry was tasteless and gave me food poisoning. Never coming back here again!

Phantastic choice of food. You can select the grade of hotness, haha. There are 7 grades. It can become really very hot Nice staff, very friendly and helpful. Beautiful place.

Very good authentic Sinhalese restaurant. I have enjoyed coming here again and again since it opened. Excellent dishes and of course a wealth of delicious vegetarian and vegan dishes. Very friendly atmosphere and service. Always a pleasure!

Riquísima la comida y muy buen servicio. La camarera súper atenta y recordando todo nuestro pedido! Súper recomendado!

Wir wollten Maultaschen und Spätzle essen, aber die gegebenen Gastronomiestädten hatten geschlossen. Also haben wir eine Alternative gesucht und dieses Restaurant gefunden eine echte Alternative sehr lecker. Tolles Personal. Schönes Ambiente bisschen rustikal aber schön.

One of my favorite restaurants in Stuttgart with great service, good variety of foods and proper spicy food depending on your own preferences

Ich bin jedesmal von den Leuten, der Auswahl an leckeren Essen, der Unterhaltungen voll begeistert.

Whether it's south-Indian or Sri Lankan cuisine, Medhu vadai / Ulundu vadai is always served with sambar and coconut chutney. It was served to us with a sweetchili sauce. I was quite disappointed.

Grosse Klasse.SuSeherper Essen.Sehr gutes Essen und eine nette Bedienung v

Gemütliches Lokal mit schönem Ambiente und authentischer Küche aus Sri Lanka. Bequeme Stühle, Hervorragendes Essen, toller Geschmack. Service und Beratung waren Erstklassig. Wir waren rundum Zufrieden

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.

Meine Freundin und ich waren Anfang November 2023 im "La Bamboo". Ausschlaggebend für unseren Besuch waren die vielen positiven Bewertungen im Netz, mit denen das Restaurant ja auch offensiv wirbt ("empfohlen von Tripadvisor"). Aufgrund dieser Bewertungen hatten wir natürlich eine gewisse Erwartungshaltung an eine kulinarische Offenbarung, die aber leider nicht bei uns uns eintrat. Insgesamt empfanden wir das Essen eher als enttäuschend. Das begann bereits bei dem Vorspeisenteller für 2 Personen, der uns wenig überzeugen konnte. Da fehlte jeder Pep ... Die Hauptgänge waren durchaus schmackhaft, aus unserer Sicht jedoch völlig überwürzt. Da wäre weniger sicherlich mehr gewesen. Meine Partnerin und ich sind schon häufiger in Südindien und Skri Lanka gewesen und mit der dortigen Küche gut vertraut. Wir haben dort irgendwo am Straßenrand allerdings deutlich leckerer gegessen als im "La Bamboo" in Stuttgart. Dem Essen fehlte durchweg eine gewisse Raffinesse - daher gibt's unter dem Strich auch nur eine mittelmäßige Bewertung.

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.

Very delicious food with many vegan options, I love to come here. It's also very affordable there!

Absolutes Lieblingsrestaurant. Wer indische Küche mag und die sri lankanische Küche noch nicht kennt - kommt hier sowas von auf deine Kosten. Die Küche hat sind traditionell eine sehr große vegane und vegetarische Vielfalt aber auch für Fleisch Liebhaber das Restaurant absolut zu empfehlen. Das Masala Dosai ist mein Lieblingsessen geworden. Die Chefin ist wundervoll und mega freundlich. Das Essen kommt immer schnell egal ob im Restaurant oder ob man bestellt und es ist immer heiß. Auf jeden Fall eine Empfehlung!

Découverte culinaire extraordinaire. Personnel très accueillant et bienveillant. Large choix végétarien, ce qui est très appréciable. Nous nous sommes régalés, nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir. Je recommande sans hésiter :)

Excellent, restaurant Sri lankais. On a été très bien accueillis et la nourriture était excellente. Je recommande à 100% !

Wunderbares Essen in diversen Schärfegraden; tolles Ambiente und sehr freundliches Personal.

Sehr lecker. Komme gerne wieder!

Schön war’s aber nur EC Karte nehmen hätte uns fast den Abend ruiniert. Wäre toll wenn La Bamboo auch im 21. Jahrhundert ankommt.

Hat uns leider geschmacklich nicht so überzeugt

Sehr entspannte Atmosphäre, die Mitarbeiter sehr respektvoll und höflich. Das Essen war köstlich. Gerne zum weiterempfehlen 👍🏽

Netter Service, schön eingerichtet, gute Lage. Toll war auch, dass man bei jedem Gericht den Schärfegrad selbst bestimmen kann. Lieber etwas vorsichtig sein.

Der Service ist super, das Essen der hammer, sehr viele vegane und vegetarische Gerichte! Bei jeder Speise kann man zwischen Schärfegraden wählen. Es empfiehlt sich, einen Tisch zu reservieren. Die Preise sind komplett angebracht. Ich komme super gerne hierher :)

Sehr gutes Essen, freundlicher Service mit Empfehlung für die Beilage, Preis-Leistung stimmt ebenfalls.

Positiv: Netter Service, schön eingerichtet, gute Lage...Toll war auch, dass man bei jedem Gericht den Schärfegrad selbst bestimmen konnte. Negativ: Unsere Vorspeise ,,Krabbentöpfchen" beinhaltete keine Krabben, sondern kleine Garnelen. Die Bezeichnung ist irreführend. Die angegebene Weißwein-Knoblauch-Soße hat weder nach Weißwein noch nach Knoblauch geschmeckt, dafür aber nach Instant-Brühe (diesen Eindruck hatte auch mein Begleiter). Unsere Hauptgerichte hatten auch einen sehr ähnlichen Instant-Brühe-Geschmack und waren leider versalzen. Kulinarisch eine Enttäuschung.

Das Essen war gut, allerdings denke ich, die Dosai&Paratha waren nicht frish gemacht(tiefgefroren?) nur aufgewärmt. Masala Dosai ist nicht zu empfehen. Fleishgerichte waren sehr gut. Die Bedienung war super nett. Toilette ist gestunken, unertràeglich.

Hervorragendes Essen mit freundlichem Service. Gerichte sehr authentisch, frisch zubereitet, und sehr abwechslungsreich. Große Mengen, Preis-Leistung super. Vielen Dank, kommen gerne wieder!

Wahnsinnig leckeres Essen und extrem toller Service. Wir haben eine ausgiebige "Schärfe-Beratung" bekommen, die in einer perfekten Schärfe des Essens resultierte. Kann dieses Restaurant nur empfehlen!!

Außer der Suppe, die etwas "flach" schmeckte, was evtl. auch an dem bestellten Würzgrad "mild" liegen könnte, war es ein sehr angenehmer und wohlschmeckender Reataurantbesuch. Sehr freundliche Bedienung, klasse Hinweise bei Unverträglichkeiten, zudem verschiedene Würzgrade bestellbar, und natürlich eine umfangreiche Speisen- und Getränkeauswahl. Nicht gerade exotisches, aber nettes Ambiente im Lokal, und in den Querstraßen ringsherum sollte sich für ein paar Cent auch ein Parkplatz finden lassen.

The food was good however the service can definitely be much better.

Sehr leckere und perfekt gewürzte Gerichte mit genau passender Schärfe (mittlerer Schärfegrad reicht völlig aus). Die Paratha (aus Weizenmehl) fanden wir subjektiv besser als die Dosai (aus Urdbohnenmehl) - ist aber Geschmackssache. Positiv hervorzuheben sei die freundliche und gute Beratung vorab durch den Service, wodurch mit unserer Bestellung eine Bandbreite an unterschiedlichen Geschmäckern, Aromen und Zubereitungsarten abgedeckt werden konnte. War für uns das erste, aber sicherlich nicht das letzte Mal, dass wir hier zu Gast waren.

Ein tolles Erlebnis, tolles Preisleistungsverhältnis. Wir haben jede Speise erklärt bekommen und wurden mehrfach gefragt, ob alles passt. Serviert auf heißen Platten mit Kerzen, damit es schön warm bleibt. Immer gerne wieder! 😊

Wir waren mit der Familie essen, war erst etwas skeptisch. denn ich bin nicht so der Exote im Essen ;). Jedoch war die Kellnerin sehr hilfsbereit und erklärte die Gerichte. Der Schärfegrad des Essens konnte ausgewählt werden von gar nicht scharf bis highend scharf. Das Essen war super lecker. Jederzeit wieder, ich kann es nur empfehlen.

The food was good-average, the service was pretty good, and the place is also cool. My biggest problem with this restaurant is the price. Not exactly the price of the food but of the TAP WATER. I got charged 3.60 PER EACH glass of TAP WATER I drank. 7.20 EUROS IN 2 GLASSES OF TAP WATER. The rest was enjoyable. Please don't do that to clients.

The only genuine Sri Lankan restaurant in Stuttgart. We were surprised almost all tables were reserved on a Sunday afternoon. We asked for recommendation and we enjoyed a very tasty meal. Very polite service. You can only pay in cash or by German easy card (or it sounded sth like that), no regular credit cards accepted - keep that in mind, if you are visiting.

Ein Zufallstreffer, gefunden bei TripAdvisor, in der Nähe unseres Hotels. Wir haben uns die Vegane Rundreise für zwei Personen geteilt - Geröstete Kartoffeln, Gemüse süß-sauer, Curry-Dual und Okra-Dhal. Uns wurde empfohlen, “mittelscharf” zu nehmen, das hat gut gepasst und war ausreichend scharf. Alle vier Gerichte waren sehr sehr lecker, der Service sehr aufmerksam. Komme wieder, wenn ich das nächste mal in Stuttgart bin.

Wir sind durch die guten Tripadvisor bewertungen auf das Lokal aufmerksam geworden und es hat sich gelohnt. Schönes Ambiente, freundlicher Service und gutes Essen. Wir kommen wieder

Absolut frische Zubereitung, sehr netter Chef und Personal, nette Atmosphäre. Die Auswahl und die Zubereitung der Speisen sind landestypisch und sehr lecker Gerne immer wieder

La atención de la camarera es muy buena, super gentil y amable. La comida es deliciosa, la colocan al centro de la mesa y se mantiene caliente por mucho tiempo.

Cuisine excellente. Service beaucoup trop lent. Plusieurs rappels pour obtenir notre commande. Service mal organisé

Mega tolles Essen, schnell und freundlich! Wir kommen wieder, können wir echt nur weiterempfehlen!! Unseren zwei jährigen gar es auch geschmeckt

Das erste mal dort online bestellt und alles gut geklappt! Essen war sehr lecker. Gerne also wieder! Klare Empfehlung.

Das Essen ist exzellent aber bitte seit Vorsichtig mit den Schärfegrad. Hatte mittel schärfe und das war Hot. Die Skala ging bis authentisch Srilanka scharf. Wer sich traut bitte sehr. Nett war daß Sie mir den Rest eingepackt haben. Habe am nächsten Tag etwas Reis abgekocht den dazu gegeben und 2 Schluck Milch um es abzumildern und es schmeckte super wie am Vortag nur nicht so scharf. Leider mußte ich ein Stern abziehen, da man den Außenbereich erheblich schöner gestalten könnte z.b Lounge Sessel aus Rattan und 3-4 größere Topfpflanzen. Gut wäre auch ein Milchgetränk zum neutralisieren der Schärfe, wenn es doch mal zu scharf wird. Ich hoffe ihr seht das als Anregung und nicht als Kritik.

Ottimo ristorante, di classe ma non chicque. Cibo molto curato, davvero buono. Ottima scelta per i vegetariani ed i vegani. Acqua sfusa sempre positiva.
