Mary's kitchen jollof rice specialists. Darwin De Silva's Food

This is one of my now favorite places to eat in Darwin this little hidden gem is amazing. Nothing fancy, but cooked with love & flavor.It was my first time having Sri Lankan and I was in heaven. Thanks guys I will be back for your wonderful food and service!

This place is a gem. A high quality, fresh buffet with so many different tastes. $25 for all you can eat is tremendous!

Clean, calm and cool restaurant to eat African or Indian style meal. Dish is a plate full of African spiced rice (huge) with choice of chicken or fisslh (other days may be different) meat was deliciously spicy with flavors. Recommend to try this authentic African restaurant and to support Darwin local businesses. No bus within walking distance.

Very good Sri Lankan food with several vegan options! I really enjoyed meals here as a vegan. Came back several times during my stay in Darwin. :)

A special srilankan fusion restaurant . But it’s not easy to reserve a table on the same day. If they are fully booked, they don’t answer the phone :(

2.5/5 star rating for me. these guys seem to be transitioning from what it was (sri lankan cuisine) to african cuisine. there is a lot of potential here but there needs to be better organisation and communication with the staff and customers as I felt we had no idea what to expect where as the african customers came and went and knew exactly what they were doing. for example they had people coming in for take away some for buffet and then even some who purchased take away and ate it there. the buffet is advertised at $20 a plate which confused us because we only realised after we sat down. its not clear if its $20 per plate serving or per person which would make more sense. we finally asked someone who then told us something completely different altogether! $20 all you can eat curries or $20 all you can eat african, not a mix. so because of this reason we ended up paying $29 per person because we had a little bit of everything - as you'd expect at a normal buffet. again this bad experience all comes down to bad communication. then we realised other african people were ordering food that wasn't even on the buffet which we would have loved to know more about if there was a menu or we were made known. food overall was okay. egusi meat had a lot of fat and meat was so tough. the chicken was also not edible. all the rice dishes were delicious as well as the chips and nuggets - but thats not what people go here for. lamb and chicken curry saved the night for me. super flavourful tender and a bit of a kick to it, delicious! no desserts like what it had previously only a fresh fruit platter. lots of room for improvement but hopefully you'll get there. also a better layout in the restaurant for better flow would be so much better as we waited 20 minutes just to get more food because it was blocked up with takeaway customers standing around the food display.

Hidden GemThis wonderful restaurant hidden near an industrial area in Winellie serves the most amazing Sri Lankan food. It's buffet style dining (which we usually avoid) - but the flavours are authentic and there's a wonderful array of dishes to select from. The staff are super friendly and at $20 per head, it's terrific value. No restrooms on site though!

I must admit I was reluctant to review this place as I love it so much and I like that I can always get in to eat here. However I must do the right thing and let the world know how good this place is.It was especially important during covid as it was like going overseas, eating authentic Sri Lankan in a place entirely staffed by Sri Lankans. I could here my mum saying Eat eat eat eat eat eat eat eat eat eat 'in my mind as I browsed the many dishes on offer on the buffet.Call to book on weekends. Be aware that there are many spicy dishes and a few non spicy options. Some dishes are GF and vegetarian. Ask the staff.I wish my mum had been able to see this place as it really is a tiny piece of Sri Lanka right here in Darwins industrial area. I bring people here often. I'll no doubt see you here!!"

Been there for the Saturday dinner... awesome!! Very authentic Srilankan cuisine ... definitely going back again... and strongly recommend to everyone who wish to have some spicy food... reasonable price awesome food
