Food was 2.5 stars. Giving a 1 star rating as the server/owner was rude to us. We first approached saying to him that 'We've heard good things about your food' in a friendly manner, while at the Psychic Salamander festival on Sept 14. Server was passive aggressive with us. I asked for no puffed rice and he responded 'what's the magic word?', and then proceeded to serve the dish with puffed rice 1 minute later. Its unlikely he would of forgetten my request. There were other questionable remarks from the cook that left us feeling poorly about the experience, like when we asked for forks and he said you need to eat it with your hands. Bro is no comedian and should be careful in offending his customers.

If you see Kottu around Seattle, do yourself a favor and get some. I had the farmer's market veggie with curry. Big portion, very delicious. Chef is awesome and friendly.

We just had our first meal from Kottu at an event at the Olympic Sculpture Park. What a treat! The mango chicken curry was amazing! Even though I chose mild, there was still plenty of flavor. The chef was awesome and the portions were huge. I will look for this truck at future events…maybe even attend events just to get another meal from them. So good!

I stopped by at the South Lake Union Saturday market, and I'm so glad I did. The chef had a fantastic vibe, and the mango chicken curry was incredible. I haven't ever had anything like it; complex flavors, awesome texture, and very fresh. I got medium spice level and it was perfect for me (spicy but not too much). It's also tons of food, and I made two meals out of it. Definitely try this spot wherever you see it!

Today I was at the Ballard SeafoodFest and was hungry and overwhelmed with choices, so I just stopped at a random stand (Kottu) and pointed to a random dish (the mango chicken curry). I took my first bite as I was walking away and OMG, It was amazing!! My husband had already eaten but I insisted he try it. He ended up eating half the dish. It was so good! The people sitting next to us asked us about it because it smelled and looked so good. Highly, highly, recommend!!

Overall ok. Happy to see more Sri Lankan food. Maybe you could add a more authentic kottu with none of the extra ingredients that seem to be South Indian derived and also up the spice level? Looking forward to trying it in the future hopefully :)

If this is a food option at the street market or Magnuson Park Hangar 30, I pick it every time. Amazing food.
Shared the spicy beef curry burrito today and it was so flavorful and so much food!

Kottu is a revelation. The vibrant medley of flavors and spices combine perfectly to create a symphony of textures that dance on your palate. It's truly a unique culinary experience! And you watch it come to life prepared by the hands of the PNW's coolest chef.

Extremely delicious! I got the butter chicken which was fantastic. At first I was somewhat put off by the price tag, but the portion was humongous and packed with meat! It fed both me and my husband and we still have leftovers.
Had a plate at the Fremont Flea Market and I want more. Delicious. I'll be dreaming of this food until I have it again.

Got the medium pumpkin chicken curry from their fremont sunday market food truck!
The chef man was delightful and it was fun to watch him chop up & sizzle your dish. The medium for spice-lovers is more like a subtle tang, so I would go higher next time to add bolder flavor.
The chicken was so tender and fell apart - I couldn’t taste the pumpkin part of it but the overall dish was so creamy and filling. Loved the crunchy cabbage and onions inside and the cute crunch mix sprinkled on top :)

I got the veggies with paneer at the Queen Anne farmers market. This was so good!!!! The best food truck meal I’ve had in a very long time. It was also a huge quantity (at least two meals worth of food for me)

I was at the thing festival all weekend for work and all my coworkers could not shut up about this food. And they were so right ohmygod.
We should talk more about this food. Why is this food not given to me every day. I have no description for the flavor other than life changing. I took one bite and suddenly I felt the light of hope descend upon me. A second bite and I was reevaluating my major—i need to make more money so I can afford to buy this every day.
I ate three of the mango chicken curry in two days. I just finished my last bit of leftovers and there’s something empty about my life now.
If you ever have a chance to eat at Kottu. Please do. You won’t regret it

Something unique that I never had before. Tasty and big portion.
