Alloro Chooti Restaurant Sigiriya

A fiery feast before (or after) conquering the Lion Rock! We braved the legendary Tom Yum Kun – spicy enough to wake the Buddha, but oh so worth it! Bold, fragrant, and unapologetically hot – I’d recommend it even if your tongue does a little dance. Then came the Chicken Roti – more of a hearty meal than a snack. Packed with generous chunks of meat and veg, it’s the sort of dish that makes you question whether climbing Sigiriya after lunch was really such a clever idea. You might need a touch of patience – good things do take time here – but the coffee is proper, the service is genuinely warm, and the whole vibe? Lovely. All in all: a top spot to refuel – body and spirit – with flavour, charm, and a dash of chilli-induced euphoria.

Very nice spot with delicious food and kind people! Opens early as well if you want to grab late breakfast. Owner is very welcoming, also Chooti.

This place is such good value! I ordered rice and curry and was served a very generous amount (8 dishes - dahl, sambal, pumpkin curry, bean curry, beetroot curry, water spinach, puppadums, tomato & cucumber salad). All for 1080 Rs which is cheap for Sigiriya. And it was all delicious! I came back the next night wanting rice and curry again but they had run out. The owner offered to make it for me all from scratch (6 dishes - potato curry, bean curry, dahl, jackfruit curry, cucumber & tomato salad, puppadums) which I was very grateful for as I am allergic to everything else on the menu. Again it was a large portion, absolutely delicious and it didn’t take long to come out. My partner ordered veg kottu (1000 Rs) and thought it was the best one he’d had in the month we’ve been here. 100% recommend!

Here we had one of our best kottu in sri Lanka, the taste was really good and it was soft and crispy at same time. The rotti was thick and soft with coconut into the pasty, and quite filled with stuff and chicken. Really recommended

If you have a plenty of time, you can have lunch here. The taste of foods was moderate. We order fried rice an and it take an hour to serve. The fried rice is not hot as well.

Lovely hotel! Clean, comfortable rooms and friendly staff made my stay very enjoyable. Great location too, within walking distance of attractions. Would definitely recommend

We went there with our tourguide and ate Kotthu (vegetarian an chicken kotthu). It was really good, we got it less spicy (the spicy one was also not too spicy) and the restaurant is run by a family that is really kind. You can sit on the first floor with a nice view on the street! It was fast and delicious (of course we can only judge it by the food we had but was amazing)

Very delicious local food to an affordable price. We went there two times in a row. I had rice with curry and fried rice with prawns, both super tasty and huge portions. Best fruit juices and the highlight is definitely the super friendly and caring family who runs the place and makes it feel like eating in the living room with family! :)
