About Us
Mirisata loosely translates from Sinhala to "spicy curry." Not everything we serve is spicy, but it is bursting with flavor and unlike anything else you can find in Portland. Our food is 100% vegan and much of it is gluten-free.
We're structured as a worker-owned cooperative, currently with nine members: Ro, Alex, Padhma, Anura, Ihan, Theo, Jose, Cassandra, and Cyrus. All our workers have the opportunity to become owners.
Four of the nine current worker-owners are Sri Lankan and bring family traditions and recipes to the kitchen, but we do not have a "head chef" like most restaurants. The food we serve is the end product of our collaboration and we're always thrilled to share it with our customers.

Our logo isn't actually a chicken -- it's the Sri Lankan Jungle Fowl, which is the national bird of Sri Lanka. Of all the amazing animals in the country, this one has special significance for a vegan restaurant. There are four jungle fowl species in the world and, while the other three were domesticated to become chickens, the Sri Lankan Jungle Fowl resisted attempts at domestication and is still only found living free in the wild.
To design the logo, we commissioned our friend Suprabha Irugalratne, a vegan activist and illustrator from Kandy. Thank you, Sue!
