Awesome Srilankan in Grand Rapids

Mithu Srilankan & Indian Cuisine it located off Kalamazoo and 44th - an area known for it’s strip of restaurants with varied world cuisines. It’s like taking a stroll in Brooklyn with the diverse food choices in every store.

Mithu wins major points for organizing their menu as “vegetarian” and “non-vegetarian.” I love a restaurant that has vegetarianism as the default. Even their exterior sign lists “vegan, vegetarian, and non-vegetarian.”

Their menu has clear labels for vegetarian item as well as some vegan items. You will have to specify which vegetarian items they can make vegan. I ordered the aloo gobi (made vegan) with a vegan bread option. It was a deep savory tomato base that soaked up well with the bread and rice. The cauliflower was tender and the potatoes were soft. It was oily, I imagine having to substitute ghee to make it vegan. However, it was still delicious.

I would like to visit Mithu again and bring a friend next time. I recommend for dine-in, as their sitting area is very nice and quiet, or carry out.

Best Indian food I had in the city - staff helped me letting me know what was vegan - the cauliflower was very flavorful

This place is amazing! I will fight anyone who says otherwise

I've been going here pretty regularly for a couple years now and I always have such a hard time choosing what to eat because it's all so good. I really like their curries - can't recommend them enough. This is also our go-to takeout restaurant when we have family over because there really is something for everyone here and it makes a great family-style dinner.

One thing I have noticed is their spice levels can be a bit inconsistent. For example, I may order the same curry at medium spice on two separate occasions, and it might not be the same each time.

Pros: Lots of great vegan options, Online ordering, Reasonably priced

Cons: Spice level is inconsistent

Great find!

Someone recommended this place to my wife and me so we tried it. The food was SO delicious and the staff was really kind and conscientious about our dietary needs (showed us all the vegan options and came out to double check with us about a couple of ingredients). Will be returning soon!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Knowledgeable service staff, Delicious food for not a lot of money
