Lankan Tucker - Brunswick West

I ate here for the second time today because I happened to be back in my old neighbourhood. There are a handful of vegan friendly places in the area that are worth a visit, although I wouldn’t cross town for them. I enjoyed the Sri Lankan Staple today, which is a great sampler plate of a few of their tastiest dishes, including pumpkin curry, lentils, and spring hoppers. For a late lunch, it really hit the spot! They have a range of take home meals so I grabbed a few for a friend who’s unable to cook at the moment. Very convenient! Staff are relaxed and friendly.

Really friendly staff! Great service and lots of vegan options, including scrambled tofu for breakfast. Will definitely be going back!

I’ve been here a couple of times, and I didn’t really love the taste of the food that I had tbh. It was just ok. Being ethnically Sri Lankan, maybe I’m a bit particular in my tastes, I don’t know? The space is lovely though, and the staff are very friendly.

I have been a regular at Lankan Tucker since it opened, visiting once or twice a week. When I wake up on a Saturday morning craving brunch with curry and eggs, there's no better place to go. Even when I just want classic smoked salmon and avocado, I keep coming back. The portion sizes are large, and I often only need a snack later in the day after brunch. It's easy to find gluten-free options without extra charges or smaller portions like at other restaurants. The staff is accommodating and willing to make changes to dishes if needed. I enjoy trying new items on the menu with confidence that I won't be disappointed. The drinks menu is great, and I highly recommend trying the faluda. The staff is friendly and attentive, knowing regular customers by name and even recognizing the children. This is the best restaurant around.

The meal was absolutely amazing, the best Sri Lankan cuisine. I highly recommend it.
