Food was tasty as always Tried hot butter cuttlefish, hot and sour soup, chopsey rice, elite special mixed fried rice. We ordered schezwan fried rice which was not the typical, yet the taste was good. Their hot chocolate fudge cake was served with ice cream which was delicious. One minus would be the cake was not hot.. The rectangular table they have is narrow. The spacing is so less. Could have been better with some space for the people to go and sit.
Elite Indian Restaurant offers a clean, friendly setting in Colombo—great for families or a relaxed meal. Portions are generous and prices fair.
Colombo's Elite restaurant serves excellent Indian cuisine. The food tastes good and is similar to Indian cuisine. We ordered both vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes, and all were excellent. Roti with dal, chicken soup, and chicken fry are all delicious. The restaurant is tidy, clean, and well-kept. Overall, the restaurant is excellent. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I recently visited this place and had a great experience overall. The atmosphere was lovely, and the service was excellent. I absolutely loved their Elite Special Mixed Noodles. However, I was a bit disappointed with the Tres Leches Cake, which was recently introduced. It felt more like an icing cake rather than a true tres leches, and unfortunately, it didn’t feel worth the price. Still, it was a pleasant visit, and I’d definitely go back for the amazing main courses! Elite special mixed noodles - 5/5 Tres Leches Cake - 1/5
The mixed rice had a decent variety and portion size, but the flavors were a bit underwhelming overall.
