Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Very good food served in this restaurant. Menu has various options and meals are well prepared. Staff is nice and friendly, service can be a bit slow as the cook is alone in the kitchen."
"Nous avons trouvé cet établissement par hasard et nous n'avons pas été déçus. Le serveur connaît très bien la cuisine qu'il sert et nous avons pu remercier la cuisinière pour les bons plats qu'elle a confectionné. À recommander."
"Le restaurant L'Ex-Ceylan porte son nom à merveille, la cuisine y est excellente ! Tous les plats de la belle carte ont été imaginés par le chef, originaire du Sri Lanka. L'atmosphère y est paisible. Un atout indéniable et assez exceptionnel : les propriétaires du restaurant cultivent eux mêmes, avec amour, leurs légumes dans leur jardin ! C'est assez exceptionnel !!! Bravo à eux pour leur engagement, celui de nous servir une cuisine authentique et de qualité, tout leur travail et leur gentillesse. Je ne peux que recommander cet excellent restaurant !."
"Very very good place to enjoy sri-lankaise cuisine."
"Best restaurant in Angers with delicious fresh homemade food. Even the vegetables used are home grown. Bravo for the service and ambiance as well."
"Très bonne cuisine différente de ce qu’on connaît des autres resto indiens ou Pakistanais. Tout est maison et très délicat. Le service est un peu « artisanal » mais bienveillant. Beaucoup de saveurs et des prix raisonnables…."
"Excellente cuisine . Que des produits frais . Tout a du goût. Restaurant propre. Le serveur et la cuisinière sont vraiment très gentils . Je recommande cette adresse a 1000% pour ces bonnes saveurs . Nous étions en famille et nous reviendrons avec plaisir"
"Excellent restaurant, qui porte bien son nom. Accueil avec un sourire chaleureux, service très agréable, plats délicieux, le tout dans une ambiance confortable. Seul bémol : dommage pas de pain pour n'en laisser aucune goutte. Je recommande sans hésiter."
