House of Curry

This one's a no brainer, everybody, it's definitely something that everyone should try at least once, but actually, if you like me, you're gonna try it again and again, and again and again, because it's delicious. We had the pleasure, my wife and my family had the pleasure of eating at house of curry in Rosemont. What a delight. Let me tell you waitstaff was at their attention. They were at our Beck and call, literally, we never had an empty drink. Starting from my first drink there, which was a giant Taj beer, one of the one of my favorite drinks that I had when I'm overseas in Asia. My wife got a delicious mango lassie, which was split with our son. Let me tell you we got no complaints about those lassies, delicious! Folks, I'm going to add my pictures because the food was not only tasty, it looked delicious. It's nice when you get that combo of food that just looks so pallaetable and appetizing,but on top of that, it's delicious, and just packed with wonderful flavors. For my entree, I got the Chicken Kutta. The spices in this dish were so succulent, so flavorful that and the aromas were so powerfully delicious that literally there wasn't much of my whole entree left when It was time to leave. My wife and I shared the chili shrimps. Oh, my goodness, what a savory spicy shrimp. But not only that, like with all the foods at House Of Curry, the spices hit you with a KAPOW! but relax, because guess what it doesn't overwhelm you, It's just a beautiful spice done in such a way that it's a really good heat that knows when to back down. One of the things, I and I'm showing a picture of this too, one of the things I highly recommend, I highly recommend and if you don't do this, you're gonna wish you did so just do it, get the Fried Cauliflower. Pro tip get two of them, It's so good. You'll eat it as a bedtime snack. So overall, in summary, go to this restaurant, go there often make it one of your favorite places to go, because I know that's what's happened with us, we think it's wonderful. Shout out to Hosia, our Hostess slash Waiter, amazing guy and guess what? This guy knows his food and he knows the culture. If you have questions, he can answer them. But what I got to tell you is Sri Lankan restaurants are in short supply. Well guess what? Not anymore these guys can take you. They can get you in, they can get you out. Go there and go there today!

Absolutely loved my experience at House of Curry! The food was incredibly delicious and truly authentic — it brought back so many memories of my motherland, Sri Lanka. Every dish tasted like it was made with care and passion. You can really feel the love that Aruni and Disa, the wonderful owners, put into their cooking. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, making it feel just like home. Highly recommend to anyone craving real Sri Lankan flavors and heartfelt hospitality!

I absolutely love the chili shrimp here! It's seriously the best I've ever tasted. You have to try it, words can't even describe how amazing it was. Not just hot but with flavor!

We have worked with House of Curry for over six years, providing services at weddings and private parties where they handled the catering. Their food is consistently delicious, and their team offers friendly, professional service that always receives excellent feedback from guests. Our own team has also enjoyed their food on many occasions, and we can confidently say it’s always fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. We highly recommend House of Curry for anyone looking for outstanding Sri Lankan cuisine and reliable catering services.

Absolutely amazing Sri Lankan food. As a Sri Lankan myself, I can vouch for this place. The warm hospitality of the owners, perfectly spiced food made with true Sri Lankan spirit, better than what you find in most if not all restaurants in Sri Lanka. Try the Fried rice, Koththu, or even rice and curry. Honestly everything is top notch. If you are around Rosemount and haven’t tried House of Curry yet, you’re the one missing out.

If you want to taste authentic Sri Lankan cuisine in Minnesota, this is the place! 🇱🇰✨ Sri Lankan food was ranked among the top 7 cuisines in the world for 2025, and House of Curry does a marvelous job bringing that flavor and authenticity right here. The lamb kotthu and fried rice are absolute must-tries — flavorful, comforting, and perfectly spiced. Or, if you really want to experience true Sri Lankan tradition, go for the rice and curry. You won’t be disappointed!

House of Curry never disappoints! The recent lump rice was absolutely delicious—flavorful, generous, and perfectly spiced. Their string hoppers and roti are outstanding too—soft, fresh, and full of authentic Sri Lankan taste. Highly recommend for anyone craving true Sri Lankan comfort food!

Delicious unique flavors nummy. Kotta Rotti OMG so good. Love cucumber salad also . Family is so kind and polite to their costumers . Food made to order so it's always super fresh and hot. Like the old days!

I do not have much to compare this to but it was very tasty. Nice, smaller dining area. I really liked the dish II had

Enjoyed my experience. Very authentic. Glad i went. Would return...................

Jose the volunteer server was great! The food was fantastic too - Pol Roti, Fish Croquettes, Idiappam, all delicious. We will be back.

Good service and good food white rice was great but Yellow rice was not too good but everything else was good

House of curry is amazing! They are a small family owned business in rosemount that has been here for years, food is always fresh and so flavorful. Very nice staff and delicious food! Our favorites are the house of curry rice meal and the chicken Kottu, can be done to your spice liking. Favorite sides are the potatoes, green beans and the lentils and the papadam is so crispy and crunchy! They have a brunch buffet as well that I haven't tried but want to!

Based on Yelp reviews, I decided to have lunch here. I was the only person in the dining room. The waiter suggested their House of Curry Rice Meal: Basmati rice with a choice of curried chicken, lamb, shrimp or fish and a choice of 2 sides and 2 papadam lentil crisps. I chose the lamb curry with lentils in coconut milk and julienned beets in coconut milk. All were good, but could have had more complexity in flavorful. The lamb stew meat had a slight chew that could have been braised a little longer, but overall a good meal nonetheless. The ambiance is casual cafe style dining. I could see and hear the owners watching TV in the kitchen although it was not distracting to me, it doesn't look professional!

Excited to find this place. Went with a woman from Sri Lanka today to the Sunday buffet. Highly recommend the brunch as it was a great way to try more dishes as I had never had Sri Lankan food before. The flavors were deep and intense and soooo good. Some, like the chicken biryana, reminded me of southern Indian cuisine. It was great. Could not try everything (my fault) but the fried cauliflower was a show stopper for me. It's just amazing. Looking forward to trying more based on the reviews here. Shrimp was divine, the devilled chicken was so good and unique. Curry was thin; I would have expected a bowl or rice, but there was none. Dal was very good and reminded me of India. I will definitely be back to try more dishes!

We love House of Curry! The food is absolutely delicious. Some of our favorites: spicy cauliflower wings, vegetable rolls, kottu, deviled specials, and fried rice. Honestly, everything we've had here is so good and we've ordered takeout at least a dozen times (or more). Highly recommend!

First, a pet peeve, ma bete noir, mi queja habitual. If it's your first time eating a specific ethnic cuisine, you're not honestly in a position to evaluate whether it's authentic or not. You can of course, tell us if it tastes good to you. I would never presume to declare a place to have authentic White American home cooking, my mother was Japanese, our neighbors Jewish, I wouldn't know authentic White Midwestern home cooking from Kraft macaroni and cheese in a box. I've heard it involves a can of Campbell's Cream of Mushroom in every entrée but since my White friends laugh after they say that, I'm not really sure that it's true. Now if your name is Shamil, you're qualified to tell us, he did, and he's right. This is authentic Sri Lankan. Authentic doesn't necessarily mean good. My aunt Kamala's cooking is authentic Sri Lankan, but after a few decades and two English-Desi children, I'm afraid it just isn't very good. Rebecca clearly knows Sri Lankan, gives a great review, she seems to have lived there a while. House of Curry is both authentic, and good, thank you Shamil and Rebecca. And he is also correct that the prawn curry is delicious, but I question the judgement involved in Yelping that it's better here than his wife's cooking. If she's Sri Lankan, yes a very honest people but in most cultures husbands shouldn't be comparing their wives' cooking unfavorably. I'm a sociologist, trust me on this one. There aren't a lot of choices for authentic Sri Lankan in North America, there are maybe a dozen in New York City, twice as many in the second largest Sri Lankan city in the world, Toronto/Mississauga and once in a while one pops up elsewhere. This is the closest one to Milwaukee so how good is it? I'll be making the trip again here just to eat here. For appetizers, the fish cutlets and papadum are excellent. The chicken curry (on the bone of course) is very good, I agreed with Shamil already about the shrimp, both the coconut curry, and the deviled are perfect. The dal is also delicious, Sri Lankan is not that different from Tamil Nadu or Kerala versions of lentil curry but distinct from northern Indian styles. The Pol Sambol, my favorite, was good, I've had better. I was disappointed in the kottu, but in all fairness that's a Sri Lankan street food, like hot dogs are to New York City, or Italian beef is to Chicago. Mine was overdone on a busy day, this wouldn't be a problem on the streets of Columbo. The potato curry was a little bland. They have string hoppers but not regular appam. For dessert the wattlapan (we always called it "What'll happen?" which did not amuse any of my aunties) is some of the best I've ever had. The rice isn't Sri Lankan rice, which is pretty hard to get here, though the authentic Sri Lankan restaurant in Madison Wisconsin was able to get it until they closed down. KJ's Curry Bowl (the Madison place) suffered in part from negative reviews because they weren't like other Indian or South Asian restaurants (Sri Lankan cuisine doesn't include basmati rice, ghee, or Indian flatbreads... that's my naan disclosure statement). Please, look at a map before coming here, yes Sri Lanka is part of South Asia, but South Asia is a big and diverse sub-continent. The further south you get the hotter the food is, and served properly Sri Lankan food is hotter than any cuisine except Thai or Vietnamese (when served authentically). If you come here with White people, you're just not going to get it authentically spicy even if your name is Rohan. The one negative is why this isn't a five star restaurant. They rely on local, White, volunteer waitstaff who have not been trained in any way. The fellow was very nice, but he didn't know what any of the dishes were, didn't know anything about Sri Lankan cuisine, and didn't seem to realize that a customer could have had any experience with Sri Lankan cooking. This was frustrating. When the Chief of Staff tried greeting him in Sinhalese, then Tamil, he didn't even acknowledge she was trying to talk to him with a simple "I'm sorry I don't speak Singhalese or Tamil. This isn't just a problem for someone who knows what he wants, I felt bad that the couple near me who were trying Sri Lankan food for the first time weren't given any introduction or orientation to our cuisine, no suggestions for the first time, and in fact they thought they were in an Indian restaurant and this misconception was never addressed.

This food is amazing food! Was so amazed by the freshness and how delicious it was. it sent my taste buds to a new world of happiness.

Wow wow wow - first time trying Sri Lankan food, and it was incredible! House of Curry is an authentic Sri Lankan restaurant in Rosemount. I agree with another reviewer. It's often compared to Indian food and Thai food but it's truly distinct from both. What we tried: -Lamb kottu (diced roti stir-fried with scrambled egg, onions, chillies, spices, and lamb) -Idiyappam aka string hoppers (rice noodle discs) which we paired with fish curry -Lamb coconut curry -Vegetable rolls Things to know: -I'd recommend calling to confirm hours because at this time, google, Yelp, and the store sign all show different hours. -As of 5/2021, takeout only! -Spiciness levels: mild, medium, hot -Some of the dishes come with coconut sambol which is a spicy condiment that looks like crab meat but is actually made of fresh coconut and red chilis -Menu is easily vegan friendly! Amazing experience for dinner last night. I already want to go back!

Sri Lankan food is hard to find in the US, so I was really excited to try House of Curry in Rosemount. This place is definitely worth a trip to the suburbs. We started with the vegetable rolls ($4) which are basically breaded egg rolls filled with spiced vegetables. They were delicious and vegan by default. The dhal curry ($11, vegan by default) is light and flavorful and nicely seasoned. It went really well with the godhamba roti ($2.50), a thin, flaky and slighty chewy bread exclusive to Sri Lanka. The ala hodi ($9) is a coconut milk soup filled with potatoes. I thought this dish would be thicker, more like a curry, but it's still delicious and deeply savory. Lastly, the bandakka thelada ($10) was vegan, like much of the rest of the menu, and nicely done. Okra is hard to cook well, but they do a good job with it here. The only drawback was that the kottu roti here is made with egg and can't be modified to be vegan. That was a bummer, as this is the national dish of Sri Lanka and one of my favorites. House of Curry is a great spot and makes excellent Sri Lankan food. Check it out.

I've been going here for years now (since around the time they opened) and I absolutely love it! Sri Lankan food is AMAZING, Amd this place does not disappoint! I can't say enough good things about the food here. My go to meal here is the string hoppers, the string hoppers are like a thin patty made of thin white rice noodles (it comes with like 12). I love that this meal comes with a curry sauce, Kiri Hodi (a sweet thinner sauce) and Coconut Sambol. I layer on as much of each that I want on my string hoppers and the combo is DELICIOUS! My daughter has tried a few different dishes here and loves them all. She's done the Ala Hodi (potato curry), the chicken curry and the Dhal Curry. She normally gets roti on the side as well. We normally get a side of vegetable rolls to start with. Then if we are looking for a little extra we get a Mango Lassi to start or finish the meal with. It is like a sweet mango smoothie, but yogurt based and thinner texture.

10+ dollars for 6 prices of chicken wing that was so over cook it was like chicken jerkey with that said the coconut curry was just ok and the shrimp fried rice was nothing special or should I say what shrimp. How do a restaurant put 4 to 5 small shrimp in an order, and when i say small, it was like a jumbo shrimp cut in 3's. The dog was happy though wit the wings. Sorry, but if there is no one for quality contr, l don't server food you wouldn't eat your self.

Wow. Have you ever had Sri Lankan? I hadn't either until today. Absolutely a win. It was quite out of the way (I live in Edina/SLP), but it was 100% worth the trip. If you want to try something new and different, give this place a try! We came here to celebrate a family friend's birthday, and boy, can he pick a restaurant! We ordered several dishes. We started out with the spicy cauliflower, which was absolutely fantastic. It's fried in a wonderful batter--spicy and a bit tangy with (I think) fenugreek--and offers a perfect balance of flavors and texture. Don't miss this one! We also had the vegetable kottu, which is a Sri Lankan street food. It's absolutely delicious. It's a lovely melange of chopped veggies and egg, all fried together. It comes with a gravy (mine was yellow lentil-based), and it's an absolute winner! I have a bit left over for lunch (who am I kidding? Breakfast.), which is always good. We also got to try the watalappan, which is a custard-like confection made of eggs, coconut milk, and jaggery (think a slightly more complex brown sugar). Friends, that stuff is amazing! It's both familiar and different, and it somehow tastes like home.

It was our first time visiting this restaurant. We ordered Fish Curry, Fish Cutlets, String Hoppers, Pol Roti and Chicken Kotu. All of them were great. We loved the Fish Cutlets especially. It was made with potatoes, greepeas and Fish which makes it a great snack. The Fish Curry with String Hoppers is an excellent combination. That's a must try! My colleagues strongly recommended the Chicken Kotu. We liked it however we would prefer the ones that we usually get from one of the Indian restaurants. Overall this restaurant is amazing with great flavors. Update 08/02/2019: Added more pics of other items from their menu

Always excited to see Sri Lankan restaurants and this Kandy girl was even more delighted to see Ayubowan on the cover of the menu. Most the restaurants we encounter in North America are Tamil. We ordered a couple of short eats which were deliciois and piping hot from the fryer. We were allowed to swap out the meat for am extra veggie dish in the rice and curry platter, choosing green beans, eggplant, and red lentils. The pol roti entree usually comes with fish but when I asked to leave that out, our server (the owner?) brought us potatoes as a substitution, which was very kind. Finally, ordered a side a coconut sambol to round out the meal. We were asked how spicy we wanted the food and I ordered it medium because I'm out of practice. When I lived in Sri Lanka, my amma forced me to eat spicy food to develop my tolerance and it worked, BUT use it or lose it. It's been 15 years and this white girl doesn't often have occasions so eat food as spicy as Sri Lankans do on a daily basis. Medium is still a decent amount of spice. The coconut sambol is very spicy, so if you're with a mixed group, some liking hot and some liking mild, get the coconut sambol and you can turn up the heat as much as you like. Made with fresh shredded coconut, it's cool and spicy all at once. Nothing else like it. The green beans were on point, just like Amma and Anula used to make when I lived with a host family. The other curries were quite good as well. It was very quiet at 4:30pm. This was our last stop before the airport, so we didn't mind having the place to ourselves after a hectic weekend. Our water glasses stayed empty for awhile but when I was seen trying to fill it myself from the pitcher, our host was very apologetic and came to the table shorty to fill our glasses again. Worth a visit. Sri Lankan food isn't like any other food; I wouldn't compare it to Indian food just because it's curry and I wouldn't compare it to Thai food just because it has coconut milk. The spices and flavors are unique and wonderful, just like the island of Sri Lanka.

Great place to have some amazing authentic Sri Lankan food. Flavorful south Asian cuisines that would make you want more. Great ambiance and service.

Excellent food! Fast and kind service. This is a HIDDEN GEM!!! If you haven't tried Sri Lankan food, this should be your go to! Lamb Kottu is out of this world. But do not skip the fried cauliflower. So much deep and rich flavor. Coconut curry is also wonderful. You can pick your spice level, so do not be nervous!! Great for meat lovers and vegetarians alike. Small dining area with comfortable seating. Highly highly recommended. My whole family walked away stuffed and happy!

Chicken kotu is soo good but everything has been delicious. Friendly staff made up of a husband and wife restaurateur duo! The food can take a little longer to make because I think she is the one doing all the cooking but it never disappoints.

Was here for a private event. First time trying Sri Lankan food but this is vegetarian paradise. Had goat (maybe lamb?) curry and fish curry but I could survive on the non-meat items alone. The Pol Roti was one of my favorites. The fried okras is something I'll have to learn because I don't think it would be easy to live without them.

I wanted to visit this restaurant for quite long now and went to their special annversary buffet . I found the cuisine similar to kerala cuisine - southIndian food .They have good variety of appetizer - fish cutlets ,veg patties ,vegetable stuffed bun ( the bun was super soft ) ,string hoppers ,milk rice etc.Fish cutlet was so nice with the spice and tanginess to it .Their veg rolls are super big .I didn't find main course as quite interesting as appetizer section .There were lentils ,egg curry ,tandoori chicken and mutton curry .There are some unique dishes likes - creamy cashew curry and fish Thiyal . Also dessert sections also contained some authentic Srilankan varieties. Restaurant is small with limited seating .Restaurant people are super friendly and helpful .

This review is for the Sunday lunch buffet. For the most part the offerings were all well seasoned and pleasing to the palate. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. Highlights from the buffet include: deviled chicken, chicken biryani, and vegetable string hoppers. Lowlights were the breads - the pol roti in particular was dense and coarse in texture. My only complaint is that for a relatively slow Sunday it didn't seem like the kitchen was prepared to keep the food refreshed. When I got there the chicken curry was empty and when I left 40 minutes later it was still empty. A couple of other dishes were also needing to be refreshed. Overall, a good buffet worth checking out.

Love the spices...herb soup very tasty and my favorite deviled chicken. All made from scratch so it takes a little longer, but well worth the wait.

After passing by a few times we finally stopped in on a whim this past Friday. Its Sri Lankan food (a first for me) and I don't really know offhand what the difference is from Indian and to be honest after eating I still don't really know, but I do know that its good. Its a pretty large menu and I chose the Lamb Coconut Curry. A bowl of rich, creamy, spicy goodness with nice sized chunks of lamb spread throughout. $2 extra gets potatoes and spinach added in. It was a LITTLE bit hotter than I had anticipated but not too much. You can tailor the heat to what you want when ordering so maybe I should dial it down a notch next time. The leftovers heated up great the next day. We split the fish cutlets. It was four slightly larger than hush puppy sized pieces with good spice and some potatoes added in for texture. I like those a lot. They had a nice kick to them too. Add in a Kingfisher for a little more authenticity and i was satisfied. Its located in a strip mall in Rosemount so its a little on the small side once you step in. Extra points for the inside door so you don't get hit with that rush of cold air everytime somebody walks in off the street. The decor is clean. They have a bigger wine list than I expected and the expected Kingfisher, Taj Mahal, etc. beers. Between here and Darbar you have quality Sri Lankan and Indian cuisine covered down the County Road 42 corridor.

Ok, wow. I haven't even left the establishment yet and I am so geeked out over the flavors, the spice, the sounds of them cooking in the back even, is just all around perfect. (Seriously when they throw something into the hot oil back in the kitchen your anticipation for the food raises tenfold.) I have honestly seen this restaurant for years but never stopped in, and after seeing the reviews I made it a point that we HAD to. I am so extremely grateful for having such quality food so close to home. The food is so flavorful, everything we had we thought was absolutely delicious. So delicious I didn't get a single photo of our food! We started with the fish cutlets and fried chicken wings, then the entrees we chose were lamb biryani, lamb kottu, and a side Godhamba Roti. 10/10 would recommend and we absolutely will be back many times.

I really love this food! I haven't ventured much past the coconut curry chicken, medium spicy. I like it so much, it is hard for me to choose anything else. I usually have take out, order, go to dollar store, come back and food is ready and Hot! Please try this place out, try something new!

Stopped here on a whim tonight. The place was pretty busy but we were able to snag a table. We shared fish cutlets as a starter which look like some oversized hush puppies but they are filed with fish, onion, and potatoes. The spices in them were terrific. I also had a Lion Lager. A very refreshing beer! I had the chicken coconut curry and added potatoes and spinach for a couple bucks more with medium heat. It had a nice amount of spice, enough to make the nose run a little. The curry sauce was not very thick but there was lots of spinach, potatoes, and chicken. Observing other dishes at the neighbor's table, I for sure want to try the vegetable or chicken rolls and the Godhamba Roti next time we go here! There was one guy serving all the tables, so at times the service was slow. However, have a hot date like I did, and the waiting doesn't seem so long and the food was worth the wait.

Very good food and service! Would return again in a heartbeat! Great flavor and super mango lassis!

I had lunch at House of Curry today w a couple of friends, and we really enjoyed our meal. Because business was slow, we were told, there was no lunch buffet. Not a problem. We tried two of the Sri Lankan beers: the golden lager and the black - both delicious and refreshing, served in frosted mugs. The spicy cauliflower appetizer was a hit w all three of us - tender cauliflower in a light yet crispy chick pea flour batter, the tossed w a sweet, only slightly hot sauce. We shared an order of chicken coconut curry w added potatoes and spinach for $2 and loved it. The chicken pieces were a little over cooked, but that curry gravy was to die for. We also had an order of the kottu roti with the lamb option and really enjoyed it as well. The food is definitely reminiscent of Indian food, but is equally unique. Service was attentive and friendly, and we could hear our food being prepared in the kitchen - no curry sitting on a steam table here. Being full we chose to take a pass on the mango lassi - maybe next time, because we will be definitely be back!

We live in fargo ND and still drive all the way down here for the SriLankan food. Service is good and hosts are always warm and welcoming. Get the cutlets app and the rice and curry combo or e string hoppers and fish curry. End with a nice tea and watallapan dessert.

Excellent food, especially the shrimp curry. Served to my entire family and everyone was impressed. Will be returning very soon.

Amazing food! We got the dal & godamba roti, veg biryani, egg kottu & veg rolls and everything tasted really good! This was my first time trying sri lankan food and I'm glad I got to try it here. I'd definitely recommend this restaurant!!

First visit but we will be back for more. Food was excellent, we had the special combo meal with Chicken, Potato and Beets, the chicken roll appetizers, and Deviled Shrimp plus an assortment of roti. So much more we want to try. Prompt, hot, delicious.

The server was very nice and helpful. We started with a spicy cauliflower. It was very spicy for my Scandinavian palate. We also got a veggie soup I was not expecting. We ordered a veggie and noodle dish as our main entree. I liked the texture of the noodles. All the food smelled good and tasted great!

I like the food it's amazing but the service is not so good. I Recommend getting it and leaving.

We went here after reading about it in a mpls magazine of the 10 best new restaurants in the cities. Well, I do not agree. The place is tiny which is fine but we walked in and one of the waiters just stared at me so I asked if we should just seat ourselves which we did. We waited about 5-10 minutes and neither of the waiters brought us menus. Finally I flagged them down and asked for one. The guy that took our order obviously barely spoke English and we struggled with trying to understand what he was saying and he barely understood us. We ordered the Spicy Cauliflower and the house of Curry rice meal. With the meal we ordered shrimp and for veggies we ordered Dahl and kale. I wanted some of the other options for veggies but in broken English he told me they didn't have any other items and we could only get kale, potatoes, or Dahl. Spicy Cauliflower- Great, very tasty, good amount of spice, and perfectly breaded. House of curry rice meal- not impressed at all. We asked for med heat and there was none. It was very blah. The Papadam was like Styrofoam. The kale was the worst very odd taste and I like Kale. It was plenty for 2 people even though the waiter disagreed. Overall we won't be going back. The service was horrible and If you want amazing Curry go to Taste of Thaiyai in Apple Valley.

I've visited the house of Curry a few times and every time have not been disappointed. Being Sri Lankan myself, I know what Sri Lankan cooking is like. The stuff made by the chef is very authentic. Their milk tea following a meal there is just right in milk and in sugar content. The chef makes a prawn/shrimp stir fry that is better than my wife and my mom's. That is THE highest compliment I can give to any food I have eaten. And my wife and mom are fabulous cooks. If you go there the shrimp stir fry is must.

I stopped here after spotting it while I was at the local Holiday station. It has a severe location, at the end of a strip mall, with several obstructions from the main road. I barely spotted it when I was pumping gas at the Holiday. The local Burger King and Rosemount Liquor buildings unintentionally block it from plain view. The interior is small as others have noted. The buffet area seems on par with most other Indian buffets I've been to, in terms of selection. The interior is painted in warm colors, which suits the place, especially nice in the dead of winter. Nice looking wine and beer selection for a small establishment, a welcome surprise. I ordered the following: Chicken Curry - Good, not great, but partially due to my preference for spicier offerings. I ordered it medium spicy, but maybe I should have ventured into hot territory (it always varies from place to place). Chicken pieces were boneless and not overcooked. Chicken Biryani - Very good. The chicken pieces needed more seasoning, but the dish tastes good overall and didn't suffer from being too dry. Many a biryani in the greater TC area has suffered from dryness. I would recommend this dish as an accompaniment to another dish. Deviled Chicken - Swing and a miss. Lots of potential but the execution fell flat. The sauce was decent, but the chicken was severely dry and overcooked. It tasted like it had been overcooked and left over from lunch or something. I hope this is a one time thing as opposed to a problem in their overall execution of this dish. It has so much potential if they don't overcook the chicken. Service was good. One guy working the front. He was very polite and enthusiastic. Will definitely be back. I enjoyed it more than the Indian offerings in Eagan. I would label this place as Indian/Sri Lankan fusion because there is a significant crossover in cuisine at this restaurant.

We need more diverse restaurants in the south suburbs. My son was so happy to hear about House of Curry that we tried it out a few days later. It is in a small strip mall located on County Road 42. Ambiance is minimal but it fits the area. There were two other couples present. We sat down and looked over the menu. Lots of curry options. We started by ordering the chicken rolls and we each ordered the House of Curry Rice Meal. The meal comes with your choice of meat or shrimp curry, rice, papadam and two vegetable choices. We waited over 20 minutes for the chicken rolls. By this time the restaurant started filling up. The owner was seating guests, taking orders and delivering food. The chicken rolls were a winner and disappeared quickly. Then the waiting began ... we waited ... and waited ... and 40 minutes after the chicken rolls we had our curry. My son had ordered medium spicy and I ordered hot. The owner was honest that the spice is on the Minnesota scale. I remember the old Sri Lankan Curry house where hot made you breathe fire like a dragon. This hot had an edge but wasn't that spicy. My son regretted only ordering medium spice. My shrimp curry was good but I didn't care for my vegetable choices (eggplant and potato curry). We agreed that the spinach was the best vegetable. He thought the chicken curry was below average. The rice portion is large and the other components were small. Papadam is like a cracker - bread would have been much better. And this is where we made the mistake. I read about how good the Sri Lankan bread pudding was in another review. I asked the owner if the pudding was ready and if it would be quick. He said yes so we decided to split an order. Then we waited ... and waited ... another 20 minutes. By that time we were laughing so hard people were staring. Then the pudding arrived. We each ate a spoonful and it was absolutely AWFUL. Then we couldn't stop laughing. It took a while to get the check too. My rating is 2 1/2 stars. I hope it will get better with more staff (they are hiring) because 2 hours for the meal was way too long. The owner was friendly and answered our questions patiently. But the bread pudding still leaves an awful taste in my mouth. The laughs were great.

I've heard good things about House of Curry for years but just tried it tonight, and my husband and I were not disappointed. He ordered the chicken kottu (medium spice) and I ordered the chicken biryani (mild, I'm a baby). Only took about 20 minutes and the food was delicious. Service was great. Will definitely be coming back and recommending to friends and family! Thank you, House of Curry!

Wanted to eat somewhere new that was local so fired up yelp and found this place. The reviews were good so I thought I was safe. But I wasn't. We ordered the chicken kottu, deviled chicken and shrimp coconut curry. The chicken kottu was good. The deviled chicken was also good, though I don't think the portions match the price. The shrimp curry was bland, soupy and small portion for the price. We did not receive a lot of white rice. We got a couple additional cups of white rice. We later found out rice was $3.50 per cup. That is a steep price for not much rice, especially considering how cheap rice is and the fact that a lot of other Asian restaurants give extra rice for free. We ended spending about $50 for our meal for 5. However all of us were still hungry. I'd avoid this place. If you do go there stick with the popular dishes as they seem more reasonably priced for the portions you get. Sadly for a place called "House of Curry" the curry was the worst part of the meal. I was overall disappointed and won't be going back.

Great restaurant and nice staff. They are very friendly and love their amazing food. Not that expensive and its very good.

Amazing South Asian food! The depth and complexity of flavor in their curry shrimp and rice was thoroughly enjoyable in every bite. Unfortunately it was so good that we didn't have left overs the next morning. Can't wait to go back.

Amazing Sri Lankan food! My wife and I came here on a Tuesday evening for the Sri Lankan "all you can eat" buffet, and we really enjoyed trying a variety of entrees with a range of mild to hot spices. Even the beer was authentic and smooth. We had a great dinner and the service was absolutely wonderful! We can't wait to go back!

This restraunt has very good food. Other people can try this if they are tired of Norwegian style bland " Minnesota spicy" food. Those who sweat to a bottle of ketchup can eat mild. To help or clear your system, it is good to order medium hot. Very hot can be too much. I ordered Lamb Kottu. My tastebuds were fried perfectly for me to enjoy after putting on 1/2 of the super strong liquid curry all concentrated for a perfectly spicy meal . It's not at eye watering temperature . I suggest this place to everyone who likes to try different things to eat .it is 100% better than sushi or sashimi , with no actual risk of getting sick .

Very authentic Sri Lankan food! I am Sri Lankan and the food here is so amazing. Remind me of home all the time. I've been able to introduce it to my wife, my co-workers and friends. It is a must if you live close to Rosemount!

What a great little find! Two things before I start raving - the food is freshly prepared, so the meal takes time before it gets to you. Also, the hours say they open at 5 pm, but when we went it was 5:30 pm, with another sign that said 5:15 pm... So just assume 5:15 PM unless they update their hours online. Now to everything else - WOW. It was minimally staffed, so everything was a bit slow. But the gentleman who took our orders and made sure we were good was on his TOES making sure EVERYONE was well taken care of. The menu is wide, and although my daughter can't eat coconut - she still found delicious items to eat. And again, the waiter made sure to point out his coconut-free recommendations. And the food? Unbelievable. Even with the slower service and the hours were a little wonky, nothing takes away from the 5 stars for food and experience. Will be going back, with better expectations :)

I grew up having Indian food and I have to say this Sri Lankan restaurant food is amazing . Try the chicken kottu , fried shrimp and spicy cauliflower. I live 30 minutes away from this place and I will definitely drive here again since the food is that good.
