Many of the items from the menu wasn't available. And food took a long time to come even though we called ahead and ordered them

W came here to have lunch while my bike was being serviced. WOW. It did not disappoint. The food was insanely good. We had butter chicken, chapatti, cashew rice, raithia and a sauce which came with the chapattis omg it was soooo good.

I highly recommend this place for food.

I personally found the food here to be quite good, but my Sri Lankan friends thought it was merely mediocre due to the absence of moringa leaves in the Jaffna curries. While the prices were slightly on the higher side compared to typical Jaffna rates, it's a pleasant spot to unwind. The courtyard is quite spacious, and the clientele comprises a diverse mix of locals and tourists.

Ordered chicken+egg soup and a chicken fried rice. Taste was good and the interior was welcoming. Prices were affordable but comparatively higher than other restaurants in jaffna with respect to quantity. One issue to be noted is the long waiting time!

Don't know how to feel about this one!
They have a very large menu with lots to choose from, the interior is nice, the staff are friendly and speak english. I'm not sure how many of the items are available as I tired to order something a few times and got told it wasn't available, not a big deal for me, worth mentioning though.

The waiters on my first two visits were rushing and running around a lot, I don't know if they're understaffed or what the deal is!

The first time I went, most of the options were not available which was fine, I just had vegetable fried rice.

The second time I ordered mixed vegetable kuruma, the kolapur was not available that time. It took a long time to come, I was happy to wait, it is worth mentioning that it took about 45 mins to come. It was however, very delicious and fresh, big portion also.

I came back for a third time, I think it was the vegetable kolapur this time, Im not 100% sure but it didn't take that long this time and again, was very tasty, fresh and a good sized portion. I asked for it to be cooked without butter as I follow a vegan diet, just be sure to ask for the same and without paneer as my dish came with it.

The price is fair for the quality of food too. A mixed review:)

Nice restaurant: wide choice of dishes, but watch out for the spices. Even when the server specifies that a dish is not spicy, we clearly do not have the same reference!
And bring your mosquito spray!
Correct prices.

My taste buds are definitely satisfied after long time. First n foremost I'm starting from the person who took our order, friendly n funny. Kept his word n called us within 35 min. Got butter Naan, prawn curry (I requested Extra gravy) n chettinad panner. The prawn curry was out of the world. Best curry we had in years. This is our first time trying Cosy. Nailed it.

It's insane how many dishes and drinks are on the menu. The food was delicious and I wish I had time to try more options.

Food is edible. But we didn’t get value for the money. Prices are very high. Taking so much of time to prepare. I will not try them again

Food was good. But you have to wait sometime to get notice by a waiter. Even though family dining area seems less crowded they must have so many guys in the drinking section, it’s really hard to find a waiter.

The very bad experience in Jaffna. The food has no taste. Portions are not enough even for one person. Prices are high tho its not much worth. Not recommended.

This is the place to enjoy "crab curry" at the best in this area. However you need to be there bit early in daytime to get your requirement fulfilled since heavy demand. Reasonable rate and courteous service.

There's nothing cosy about this place BUT the food is delicious and the service is good. They allow BYOB.
Their curries are delicious.
Located adjacent to the Sri Lankan Airlines office.

Great food and the jaffna crab curry was reasonable for the price. Taste was also great and the place is way bigger than expected from the outside. Overall great food and nice experience.

The food was quite good, reasonably priced but the plain tea was very bad; no flavour at all. Also there was a layer of oil on top of it. Staff service is OKAY but not friendly though! We ordered a Malaysian Traditional Mongolian rice, which is good (came with a mixture of meats), a Chinese sea food rice which is okay but the noodles dish was not tasty at all.

One of the best restaurants in Jaffna. Huge number of dishes. Also take away. The wait is pretty long. Must be patient

I was waiting for the waiter to come and take the order for 45mins. I have go to the reception and demand. They were lousy and not willing to offer any courtesy to the customer waiting to get service. Poor, unclean and unpleasant waiters.
Horrible

I waited for an hour. People who came way later got the food faster than me. I ordered jaffna mutton and after such a long waiting i got meat that was very hard and i couldn't eat it. I suggest you put an information that it takes 2 h or more to cook or prepare it in advance. I am not a cook and i have no idea how much time it takes to prepare mutton. I am very grateful for a discount for this situation.
