Hop & Spice Sri Lankan Cuisines

My husband I had a trip planned for Sri Lanka (not anymore due to the corona virus . We had a real craving to try Kottu after the many travel videos we have watched! <br/ <br/ We researched utilising Zomato and we loved the look of the menu and also the reviews for Hop Spice so off we ventured! <br/ <br/ As soon as we walked in we knew we were in the right place with many Sri Lankan’s dining in. <br/ <br/ The service was incredible and the owner helped to walk us through the menu as un-experienced eaters of Sri Lankan Food. <br/ On the weekend we were also lucky enough to order Hoppers which was super exciting! <br/ <br/ The food was served quickly, large servings and service with a smile!...

I went here yesterday for lunch with a friend and I was very impressed with the food. I have lived in Sri Lanka for many years and I know how good authentic Sri Lankan food tastes like and this is definitely very authentic and tasty, I think the closest you can get in Australia. its cheap and good serves. The staff is friendly and polite. I have been to a few Sri Lankan restaurants In melbourne and this is thus far the best hands down the others were good and some were even very fancy and high end but the food I found were not the best at those restaurants to Sri lankan standards it was westernized to a extend so the authentic taste was not really there.This is not a fancy big restaurant so...

Hop and Spice is all about respecting authentic and rustic flavours from Sri Lanka and the results speak for themselves with crowds continuing to devour Hop and Spice's authentic cuisine almost a decade on.<br/ <br/ The extensive menu features Sri Lankan favourites such as string hoppers along with other exotic dishes you will not get anywhere else. <br/ <br/ We loved tasting our way through the menu. The Kottu roti was a winner. Roti prata had been sliced into shreds and stir fried with vegetables, onions, eggs, pulled chicken and lots of aromatic spices. A popular Sri Lankan street food, this dish was wonderfully flavoursome and seriously addictive.

Make sure you stop over when passing along the busy Ballarat road for some delicious Sri Lankan food. So glad we tried the food here as the restaurant was recommended to us by our Sri Lankan friend so it had to be good.<br/ <br/ It wasn't busy in our last 2 visits so the staff was mostly around at the back but when they do take our orders and serve the food, the staff was friendly and welcoming.<br/ <br/ We really enjoyed our meal as the food was flavourful and nice and spicy. Each dish also comes in big serves and reasonably priced. Réservez une table maintenant

The food when it arrived was very good , I say when it arrived , 40 minutes from the order to the table , not good when only four of us in the restaurant . Did I mention the drinks not turning up , we left that one . The drumming of the kitchen , what was that person doing playing drums metal on metal in the kitchen ? Or the waitress on her phone constantly ... Food good service rubbish

I am so glad I popped into Hop and Spice by chance a few months ago, the owner and staff are so incredibly attentive and the food is just delicious! The eggplant pickle is the best accompaniment to the beautiful curries- and from the first bite I was transported back to Sri Lanka! Thank you again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our meal at this restaurant. The service was incredibly welcoming and friendly, the food was tasty and reasonably priced, and the portions were very generous. We look forward to returning to sample more dishes from the menu!

This is the best Sri Lankan restaurant I've ever visited. The food was absolutely wonderful. I tried nearly every dish with my family and it was all delicious. The customer service was fantastic as well. Réservez une table maintenant

Always enjoy meals at Hot and Spicy. Great traditional Sri Lankan meals, very simple restuarant. Great value. Have enjoyed both eat in and takeaway. Look forward to eating here again soon.

I will not recommend this place for dine-in ; take always could be fine as we had to wait for 15 minutes for the menus.
