Great flavours, fresh and tasty and great nan bread too. My wife who is very hard to please actually said "this is the best takeaway I've ever had" - high praise indeed. Actually really reasonable prices too. The restaurant looks great and look forward to trying it out soon.

We weren't sure where exactly we would eat but saw this place on a corner and went inside to ask if they were still taking guests for dine in. They let us in with only about 15-20 minutes before kitchen closed, which we came to find out. Even so, they were so friendly and provided great customer service. The decor was nice and the atmosphere peaceful, at least for around 9pm lol Normally I go with some other kind of lamb dish, but wanted to try the fish curry. It was fresh, hot, and flavorful. It did not disappoint. I'd come back here.

Firstly, make sure to bring your own beer/wine, no alcohol served. The naan is wonderful. I had the lamb Saag and the sauce was very nice. Not spicy as advertised, but tasty. Unfortunately the lamb was very tough. I did tell the waiter, and he wanted me to try something else. I honestly just wanted him to know about the lamb. He brought a small chicken dish and it was flavorless. I was really looking forward to a good Indian. They are attentive. But need to work on the spice and flavor.

We shared the mixed pakora, which were ok but very greasy. The chicken was fresh & moist which was good. The veg pakora were a but bland. I had a king prawn poori. The poori was quite thick & dense, not light and fluffy as it should be. The sauce was fine, nicely spiced with lots of onion. The OH had a Jaipuri chicken with pilau rice. He said it was really nice. It was too spicy for me but he cleared his plate so it must've been good. They threw in poppadoms, salad and chutneys with out order. Service was good. Maybe not the best curry I've had but they are local and fast so I'd try them again if I needed Indian in a hurry.

The place is popular with both locals and tourists alike, so reservations are a MUST. If the variety of the menu overwhelms you, and you want to play it safe, The Garlic Nan, Vegetable Samosas, and Chicken Pakorah are among the "smaller" items that pack just as much flavour as everything else. Be mindful of some of the meat items, as they can pack quite a kick. Drinks are plentiful, as well, but don't expect the best selection of alcoholic beverages. Hey, no place is perfect.

I'd popped in and out of a few other restaurants that were fully booked, and was pleasantly surprised to find open tables when I walked into Gurkha.

I was so thirsty from sightseeing, I drank my mango lassi before I thought to capture a photo for this review. It was just the right consistency of thickness and sweetness. For appetizers, I had the king prawns. It was perfectly spiced and delicious. It was followed by chicken biryani and naan. There was a sauce provided for the biryani that took it up another notch. For me, the prawns were the star of the show. At the end of my meal, I got a chance to chat with the owner and learned they are from Nepal. It was a pleasant exchange and the service was great.
