Gara Yaka

Best Known For

Hot Butter Cuttlefish: crispy battered fried cuttlefish, wok-tossed in butter, spring onions and red chillies for that extra ‘oomph’.

Experience the evocative and exotic sights and sounds of the streets of Sri Lanka at Gara Yaka on Riverview Road in Nerang. This Gold Coast restaurant oozes sleek charm with exposed brick, black walls and pendents, alongside traditional ornaments and accents; settle in to peruse a menu delivering popular street food and specialty dishes showcasing Sri Lankan flavours. Embark on a fascinating culinary adventure with savoury beef crepes, or hot butter mushrooms and basmati rice; moving onto signature plates like The Yakas – stir-fried protein of choice, with caramelised onion and peppers, tossed with a heap of saucy hot ingredients. Perhaps black pork curry entices, with sides of rice, coconut roti and vegetables; while those looking to grab ‘n’ go opt for a chunky beef burger and chips.
