Welcome to Lungi,Lungi blends the cooking styles of South India and Sri Lanka and reflects the cultural upbringing of restaurateur and chef Albin Vincent who grew up in Kanyakumari, India, with deep roots in Sri Lanka. His culinary journey is rich with stories from his grandmother, an extraordinary cook who instilled his passion for food from a young age, teaching him the art of traditional Sri Lankan and Southern Indian dishes. Even though authentic South Asian fare has been in vogue in New York City for quite some time, it's been hard to find the bold, flavorful fare of Sri Lanka outside of Staten Island. Vincent, with Chef Vasantha Kumar from Tamil Nadu and Sous Chef Andrew Simethy from Kerala, offer both within a vibrant menu transporting diners into the homes and side street shacks of their native lands.

Everything was great. My only complaint is that the food came out five minutes after it was ordered. There is a difference between good service and rushed service. But, all in all, this restaurant is quite good and worth visiting.

Delicious South Indian flavors. Perfectly cooked. The short rib was outstanding. As was the kingfish fry appetizer. We’ll be back. Highly recommended.

We had the Lamb Bhuna, Dal Makhani, saag paneer empanada, and garlic cheese naan. All were absolutely amazing! The Taj Mahal beer was also really good! Our server RUSSEL was incredibly nice and attentive! We learned a lot about Indian liquor from him. So much so that my husband had to try Indian Whiskey—which he said was also very good. Thank you, Russell, for the amazing service!
