This place is absolutely incredible! I walked in not knowing what to expect — it was my very first experience with Sri Lankan cuisine — and it ended up being one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had. Every dish was beautifully presented, like a work of art, and somehow managed to taste even better than it looked. The flavors were complex, vibrant, and comforting all at once.

What really stood out was the service. The staff was warm, attentive,...
Such a special restaurant! Every course is clearly so thought through, with incredible flavor and beautiful presentation. Love the chef’s upscale take on Sri Lankan food and honestly the owners are the NICEST people. Will be back soon!
My experiences at 1601 have been exceptional. The staff were very attentive - I very much appreciated them waiting with me for my cab on a very quiet evening. The food is excellent. The chef prepares the food is such a unique way: its looks beautiful and yet tastes like you're eating a traditional home-cooked Sri Lankan meal - I've seen few places do this. Highly recommend for a rare experience and a great evening of delicious food.
