I'm so happy to report that this is another locally owned gem that more people really need to try! The space itself has a great feel; it's homey but with these nice cultural design touches that give it a unique vibe. It's got a good-sized dining room that would be perfect for a small group (I'd say maybe 8 people max), and a tiny patio where you can bring your dog, which is always a huge plus for us. But, you come here for the Sri Lankan dishes. Even though I've never been to Sri Lanka, we truly loved the spices, the depth of flavor, and the presentation. Everything tasted incredibly fresh, and the service was just as friendly as the food was good. We've been there a few times now and haven't run into a wait yet, so you probably don't even need a reservation. If you're looking for something authentic and flavorful, definitely come for the food! read more

Seaburry Restaurant - Sri Lankan Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Lovely little Sri Lankan restaurant with friendly and attentive service, a wide menu of Sri Lankan and other menu items, and a nice ambiance. I enjoyed the Amma's favorites platter of Sri Lankan street food: an egg paratha (lightly salted, folded into a rectangle), a roti, lightly sliced lentil stew, coconut sambal (bright, a little crunchy, a big tangy, a bit spicy), and chicken curry (big hunks of very tender peppery and spicy chicken with some gravy). You can choose other proteins but I really enjoyed the chicken. I would have liked a little rice but really, no complaints! read more

Seaburry Restaurant - Ammas Favorites (Old-Time Flavor) - Sri Lankan Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Newish restaurant in Westeood, with colorful decor. Not a lot of Sri Lankan restaurants, so I was excited to try it (also on InKind if you want a discount). For 2 of us, we ordered (had leftovers): - Kothu parotta with lamb (roti cut up pieces and cooked with egg, veggie, seasoning) - so good! Hard to go wrong with this, we added beef. - Dungenes crab with coconut curry $75 - the sauce on this was soooo good. I used it with the kothu parotta as well. They give you plastic bib and gloves, as well as the crab cracking/picking tool. Crab tasted fresh and was well cooked. Service was friendly, I saw they were also doing a brisk business for take out. Not too many people on a Sunday evening. Street parking. Probably better to come with a big group as they have a big menu, but I Would come back to try other dishes on the menu! read more

I finally made it to Seaburry and was not disappointed! The food was INCREDIBLE. The flavors were so complex and absolutely delicious. We ordered: Lankan Red Curry with lamb Lamprise with shrimp We asked for the food to be prepared with a low level of spice and it was perfect. Just the right amount of heat. (I usually order my food with a medium level of spice, but I had a feeling this place would have quite the kick.) The lamb was so tender and the curry flavor was so good. The roti was still hot and when dipped in the sauce, it was heaven. The Lamprise had shrimp that was grilled, tender and beautifully spiced. It came with a fish croquette, cashew curry (wow), caramelized onion, grilled eggplant, a seasoned hard boiled egg and the most delicious rice. I cannot wait to come back and try more dishes. Seaburry is a wonderful addition to Westwood restaurants! read more

Great flavors, presentation, and prices! I'm glad that we stopped at Seaburry restaurant. First off, I love the Sri Lankan decor and flare. The restaurant strikes a nice balance of elegance and hominess. But let's be real. Most of us will come here for the food. And the food delivers. Must get dishes? The paratha and lamprais. Both were delicious, authentic, and packed with various bold and fresh flavors. And then to top it all off, everything was well priced! None of the dishes will break the bank. This was my first time trying Sri Lankan food. I didn't know what I was missing. The Westside needed a delicious Sri Lankan spot! read more

This wonderful Sri Lankan restaurant was recommended by a foodie friend. If you love heat, this is your place! Our waiter was very helpful taking us through the menu and providing tips on spice level. (Even requesting "medium spice" left our mouths tingling). For those with dietary restrictions, he recommended calling ahead, as many of the sauces are already prepared--and hot! We ordered a couple of the specialties with shrimp (other proteins are available). With each came a platter of "sides" including mango chutney (the most popular), a coconut sambal, curried cashews, marinated beets and eggplant. For a cool down, we got an ice cream dessert but there are also several lassis that can put out five-alarm "fires.". The restaurant itself is cozy, colorful and comfortable--a quiet haven off busy Westwood Boulevard read more

The ambience and decor are lovely here. The menu is seafood-forward so not too many options for me, a vegetarian. But the pumpkin soup (soup du jour) was tasty! We parked at the Hammer Museum which has a flat all day rate that is reasonable and then had a 10 minute walk to the restaurant. read more

I orders takeout with an Uber eats coupon. The portions were very generous, we ate for 3 days. I tried the seafood fried rice. The shrimp were huge, the calamari was plentiful and the flavor of the fried rice was great. The veggie spring rolls were crispy even after going through delivery. The salad with red fish had a really generous portion of smoked salmon and lots of avocado. We were a little confused with all the sauces we received. It seemed like the salad had two salad dressings? Not sure, but both were great on the salad! read more

We were excited to try Sri Lankan food but this was not noteworthy. The variety platter did give us a chance to try a few things but the meat was dry and a few dishes were overly spicy. We are a big fan of Indian Food and maybe came in with unrealistic expectations. There menu seemed a bit incomplete as they did not even have a drinks menu. The food was okay but the flavor profiles did not wow us. Very cooperative and friendly staff though. read more

I came here with my friend (he is Sri Lankan) to try Sri Lankan food for the first time. It was phenomenal. Interior is very beautiful and chic, looks brand new and well designed. We ordered two appetizers and two entrees and shared and everything was fantastic. The dishes were so flavorful and fresh, calamari was absolutely delicious. One of the best meals I've had in a very long time. Met the owner and he gave us a free Sri Lankan ginger beer. Very reasonably priced and apparently also have a lunch buffet on weekends for around 20 bucks, which is a steal for LA. I will definitely be back. read more

This place is one of the best restaurants in all of LA! I feel so blessed and lucky to have their delicious food. I have had the vegetable spring rolls, the creamy mushroom soup, the butter chicken, the fish croquettes, the hot butter calamari, and the Asian fusion lamb chops (which is the best). All of these dishes have been divine and I can't wait to try more! Seriously, such incredibly flavorful food. Definitely check this place out! Perfect ambiance and I bet the service is just as fire!!! I've only ever done takeout thus far because of my work hours, but the fact that this food is still just as amazing via ubereats says something! read more

I live in the area, and I am so glad that Seaburry has arrived! I love Indian food, and I thought Sri Lankan food would be similar. In fact, it has its own unique and Absolutely Delicious flavor! The service is excellent and they have converted the space into a beautiful indoor/outdoor dining experience. It's right near the Ranch grocery store if you're looking for it. I am a super taster and this place gets my top vote! If you want , you can eat with your hands (the traditional way), and they will bring you hot water with lemon to clean your hands. Definitely worth swinging through. ... and they brought me a decadent birthday cake. read more

Woooow. Amazing authentic flavors, this place is a real gem. Highly recommend the Lamprais, which is a great way to sample a lot of the different flavors on a banana leaf. The fresh spices they use really add a depth/complexity that elevates all the dishes. Drink menu was nonalcoholic but the mocktails were refreshing and not too sweet. Desserts were amazing. Highly, highly recommend this place for Sri Lankan cuisine. 10/10 can't wait to come back, this might actually be one of the best restaurants I've tried in LA. read more

We loved everything about this restaurant! The colorful chairs, walls and ceiling were so cheerful and set a nice tone as we entered. The staff was so pleasant and nice. Our waiter was from Sri Lanka and told us a lot about his country with such enthusiasm that we might have to take a trip there. All four of us loved every bite of our meal!!! So flavorful and tasty, and the presentations were beautiful. The non alcoholic drinks were very refreshing and went beautifully with the food. We honestly want to go back! read more

This restaurant doesn't have nearly the business one would expect given the incredible complex flavors of delicious Sri Lankan food, lovely service, pleasant colorful ambience, and proximity to the Westwood neighborhood. The food is spicy, as Sri Lankan food tends to be, so be forewarned. The menu offers a wide variety of options. This was our 2nd visit here and there were empty tables on a Saturday night. This time we got the garlic shrimp appetizer, the Lamprise with lamb (your choice of meat and rice with other yummy items like spiced shredded eggplant, fried hard boiled egg, and a fried meat dumpling steamed in a banana leaf), and the curry rice with chicken (this is a surprisingly large meal as it comes with 6-8 little bowls of condiments including onions with pepper, spicy pickled chopped eggplant, jackfruit in a spicy chutney, steamed cashews, etc.). They also have non-alcoholic drinks and allow you to bring in wine, beer, etc.. On a previous visit we got the Red Curry with lamb which was very spicy, and a calamari dish with a spicy sauce. The Lamprise is a favorite. We had leftovers to take home. I'd also note that if you've tried the more casual Sri Lankan restaurants (there are some in the Valley) those are good, but not this good. The food at those restaurants is not quite as freshly prepared with care as the food at Seaburry. Here you can taste each ingredient, from the eggplant to the greens. The quality of the food and preparation are definitely a cut above here, worthy of a night out. Also, it's date night restaurant prices, not casual Indian restaurant prices-- worth the cost but be forewarned. read more

My Sri Lankan friend took me here because she was craving some homemade food. The restaurant was clean and colorful. The staff was friendly. The chicken curry was delicious the chicken was so tender.

Great food - great service and nice remodel of this wonderful corner spot in Westwood. Red curry (don't get spicy unless you can handle it!) shrimp, salmon - all delicious. The pita style bread and rice that come with it compliment the food nicely. No liquor license yet but they have a bar set up waiting for it. Weekend brunch is next on my list. read more

I'm so glad I found this place. I'm always looking for new seafood spots around Los Angeles, and frankly, I'm surprised that this place is so under the radar. The coconut curry crab was delicious. If you're a fan of Dungeness crab, I highly recommend it. We also tried the Lamprais, which was definitely tasty, but for me, the seafood is always the stand out. read more

I will not be coming here again, I ordered online for pick up, waited 35 min before I arrived to pick up, I arrive, and the server noemi or naomi, proceeds to think I'm an uber delivery driver, and makes me wait an additional 37 minutes just to get my food ready, and for her to realize that I'm picking up the food for myself. Poor. Poor. Poor. Shame on Seaburry read more

I was recommended this place by my Sri Lankan friend. I got to tell you it did not disappoint. The flavor is out of this world. Best service and hospitality by far from Rachitha. And the ambiance is very classy, artsy, elegant,cultural. I got the Lamprais, it was served on a leaf that I thought was pretty cool. All the flavors from the coconut cashews and curry is to die for, I got the lamb with it, super tender and delicious everything on that plate was delicious. And to bring it down, I got the Srii Lankan iced coffee. Overall amazing experience. Will definitely be coming back with my friends. read more

This was my first experience with Sri Lankan food, and I'm happy to report this was a great introduction to the cuisine! The interior is welcoming and the manager and staff were very friendly and made some recommendations for us. We got the Lamprise and savory sampler. Both were delicious, especially the calamari in the sampler, but if you're getting the Lamprise , I'd say dont get the sampler since there is considerable overlap in the fried items. I will definitely be returning to try other seafood on the menu! read more

Excellent service, delicious and unique cuisine in a cozy environment, love it! Made me want to vacation in Sri Lanka.

Go once: Sure Go again: Unlikely My wife and I came to this restaurant on a whim. On the night we were there, the restaurant was empty. We were the only people in the restaurant being served, so that was a bit sad. That said, the food here was very good, but just a bit too spicy for both of us. People should be eating here though! We aren't super into spicy foods, so that's why I say it's unlikely we will come again. If the food was basically a lot less spicy, we'd probably be here relatively often. We enjoyed our dishes, we just didn't love how we felt afterwards! If you do like spicy food, this place is a great one to check out! read more

Amazing spot great service owner is so kind must come I come here all the time it's my new go to spot.

I will definitely add this restaurant to my weekly rotations! read more

Just got back from a group lunch at Seaburry. What wonderful food! I've never had Sri Lankan food before, and it was delicious. The lunch special was a great value, quite tasty and very filling.

Their computer system definitely needs work, but the waitress rolled with the punches and did a great job -- friendly, efficient and professional. Great experience overall! read more
