The food was one of a kind. Plus, the service was outstanding. While the eatery was clean and the atmosphere was friendly.

I had leftovers and dreamt about it over night, it was just as delicious as it was from the day before. Some may have issues with leftovers, not me I actually like to test the theory to see if it's just as good the next day and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. I had the chicken makhani/butter chicken and the basket of naan, yes I love bread, I ordered both the garlic and cheese naan. They were both dipped in the butter chicken and both went very well with my main dish. It's hard to rate the service and the ambience because I did order it through door dash but I intend on going there for dinner soon to get the full effect. Though I will add, I may not have been serviced in person, but my bag had a sticker on it saying thank you for ordering from a small business and that made me smile. Overall great butter chicken and mega points for the different style naan, you will be seeing me again! read more

I am a Marine Corps Special Forces Officer (retired) who has been in the 'Springs for over 14 years now (off & on). My family and I started coming to Ghurka's Kitchen in 2010 - and we've never stopped! My ex-wife is Indian, born in Durban-Natal South Africa. Of all the Indian restaurants in the ' Springs we have tried over the years, this is by far the best! My wife also lived in India for many years, and she knows authentic Indian food. Also - the owners are Nepalese, and they are SO NICE!! Give this place a try - you will not be disappointed!! read more

Very few Indian places have lunch buffet anymore and that's what I was really looking for. I've been here once before. For two of us lunch buffet was a total of $34. Had a good selection of your main Indian dishes. It was all very good and the naan came out hot and fresh. The service was good and the staff was very friendly and came to check on us throughout. read more

Hands down the best korma sauce I've ever had. So, so flavorful. I'm going to have to try and not order this once a week for the rest of my life. read more

I came here for dinner early in the evening when it wasn't busy. The service was excellent and my food came out quickly. Vegan options were clearly labeled. I got the curry vegetables and the tandoori roti. I asked for hot for the curry and the dish had a nice spice to it. The bread was really fresh and had a good texture to it. I would definitely come back. read more

Wow! What a pleasant surprise...and we used Doordash. Gurkhas has become our favorite Indian in the city. Shri Ganesh is amazing as well, but the prices are way higher than Gurkhas Kitchen. The butter chicken is velvety and slight sweet flavor. The medium spice has a perfect heat. I usually like hot, but my wife doesn't want it to burn her mouth. Medium was perfect if you like a little heat. The Indian spices were excellent and my mouth waters just thinking of it. The Saag Paneer (medium) was also spot on. Perfect spice level with awesome flavor. The paneer was not chewy at all. Tender and perfectly cooked. We tried the samosa chaat as well as the regular naan. Naan was airy and flavorful. The samosa chaat had an array of flavors that will please those looking fun a light appetizer. We can't wait to try more items on the menu and go in-person. Thank you Gurkhas! read more

Food is delicious. Naan is the fluffiest most delicious I've had. Come here for lunch every couple of weeks - 10/10

My coworkers and I were wanting to try some Indian food, and we found Gurkhas online. They had good reviews so we were excited to try! The restaurant was empty when we showed up, but just walking into the building we were hit by the most delicious smells! Our waitress was very kind and helpful. I got the chicken vindaloo, and it was so good! It was gluten and dairy free, and once paired with rice, I was a happy camper. All of my coworkers agreed that Gurkhas was a great choice for dinner! read more

Pros: complimentary chai and naan, lots of vegetarian and meat options, good price for buffet, lunch and dinner buffet options. Plus points for the various chutneys accompanying the samosas. Cons: meats were all chicken dishes, dishes could be spicier. Gurkhas is a clean and appealing restaurant offering AYCE Indian buffet options for lunch and dinner. Veg dishes I tried: Dal makhani, saag with paneer, veg korma, veg stir fry Meat dishes: butter chicken and tandoori chicken All the dishes I tried were fresh and flavorful albeit a little bland for my pallete, but the price and service was top notch. I'll be back for sure! read more

Gurkhas Kitchen - Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Colorado Springs, Colorado

Good food. Good service. Friendly atmosphere. Naan is really good. If you are in the mood for Indian food, I recommend this place.

Overall (D) This place is not good. The food during the lunch buffet was watered down "Indian" food. The positive reviews have got to be from individuals who have not been to an Indian restaurant before. Honestly if this is what passes for decent Indian food - I will open up a place in Colorado Springs. Food (D) It was bad. The chutneys were watered down. Naan took forever to come out and was average and the food - ehhh. Yes it was edible but not memorable. The only thing I will remember is literally throwing up after ward. Yes I am not making this up. But threw up the mango dessert. The "tandoor" chicken was not. All the items were flavorless. Look I am not trying to be an Indian food snob. I really like Americanized Indian food and I have found my share of gems in small towns. This food is just not good. Yes it's a buffet and they had a decent selection. But just not a good one. Even the samosas had a weird taste. Service (C+) Typical old school Indian restaurant service. Staff is untrained and slow. I feel bad for them because they have not been set up to succeed. But it is what it is. The naan took forever to come out and of course all the tables got it at once. The lady is nice and pleasant but the guy is a bit of a weirdo. Value (B+) So it is only $15.99 so it is cheap and if they improved the quality of food they could charge $19.99. But the food was bad. So I'm conflicted. I guess what should I expect? So maybe this is my fault. I guess it's like going to a Chinese buffet and being disappointed. So I'm never going there again and I would strongly recommend anyone who does to try other Indian places. There has to be better options. Even for buffet. It can't be this bad. I am kicking myself for wasting all those calories on such crappy food. Avoid this place at all costs It is not a 4/5 more like a 2/5 read more

Fantastic! Consistently delicious Indian food. Best Indian restaurant in the Springs.

This place is decent. It's about $20 for the buffet. There are a couple of different chicken dishes, lamb, and some vegetarian options and soups. A small vegetable selection and free chai. The service is friendly and accommodating, and the booths are cozy and clean. That being said, the lamb was extremely gamey, and the yellow rice tasted gamey as well. It was almost as if the lamb fat was cooked into it. This gave the rice an off-putting flavor, almost stinky. There is white rice as an option next to it, I recommend instead. The naan bread was fresh and hot and very tasty. All in all, I would visit again. The chicken was quite good and the chai tea was very good! read more

Came here on a Friday night around 7-7:30pm with a large group of 12 adults and 2 kids. Not a ton of customers so we had the place to ourselves most of the night. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The main dishes were AMAZING! We had Shrimp Korma and Aloo Saag. Very rich and fresh flavors and everything was cooked perfectly. We had some appetizers and naan too but the main dishes really stood out the most. I'll definitely be coming back in the future! read more

The whole experience was amazing. After reading some reviews I was skeptical however I decided to try it anyways, and boy am I glad I did. The servers were amazing, kind, and attentive! Everything I tried (which was basically everything on the buffet) was GREAT! Trust me you will not regret coming here. I can about 10 mins after them opening and everything was hot and fresh. Will be back!!! read more

Good, satisfying lunch buffet with complimentary naan and chai. Family owned with the kindest, friendliest service. It's a lunchtime favorite. read more

The samosas are huge! So delicious. The service has always been attentive. The staff is very kind. Good portions.

I've been around the world a couple times and this was possibly the best Indian food I've ever had. My friend and I shared a sampler platter of sorts. A meal for 2 that included about 5 different dishes, naan, and hot creamy chai tea. Every dish was different but each delicious in its own right. I can't wait to go back. read more

The real deal. They are not faking it. Fair price and a real taste of another part of the world.

Some of the best food ever. 10/10 would eat myself into a food coma here again. There's nothing more I could add but yelp makes me use more words read more

I have only been in here for the lunch buffet, but it was very tasty! It has a good mix of choices on it, fresh Naan was brought to the table, and refills for drinks and plate pick up were quick. It has become my go-to for Indian. Highly recommend! read more

Amazing and affordable!! Lunch buffet comes with naan and chai, absolutely wonderful. read more

I tried this place for the first time. Very nice atmosphere inside. The buffet was very good. Not a huge selection, but ok. They had my favorite chicken tikka masala in the buffet. They bring warm naam to each table, too. They have excellent chai in a thermal container. You help yourself at no extra charge. The only issue I had was the tiny teacups to get the chai. I made 4 chai trips for lunch. I will return to this place again. read more

I truly enjoyed the lunch buffet. All of the dishes were delicious including the Naan. They include a hot Chai tea that was so yummy. We will definitely be back. read more

My SIL and I have been wanting to try the lunch buffet and finally got around to going in today. The place is stuffed in this tiny strip mall, I never knew I had been driving by this entire time. The place was very clean and you're greeted by the delicious smells upon entering. We tried all the dishes including the chicken masala, tandoori chicken, and chicken curry. I loved the MINT SAUCE. It was very refreshing and paired well with everything. They also had a section of just sauces and some sliced oranges, cucumbers and fresh lettuce leaves. After filling our plates we were greeted by our friendly waitress with a basket of fresh naan. They also offer fresh hot chai tea at the buffet which was a HUGE bonus and very very delicious! We will definitely be back. read more

The food is sooo good! The service is very friendly and quick! I've been here twice, both times we had a great experience!

I'm so sad! This was my go to for Indian food my bestie and I would come here 2-3 times a month for the buffet.

Really liked the lunch buffet. It was mostly simple chicken dishes and vegetarian stuff. They bring out your Naan. Waiter was coming out often to stir the buffet offerings, probably to keep the food at health dept. required temps. read more

Excellent introduction to Indian food for those who have never tried it or would like to try new options. Buffet style, very mild spice level, and great quality. Heroes were the samosas and chai (best I've had in the U.S.), with weak points being the butter chicken and mango custard (was just mango purée). Ambiance is nice, feels very Indian. Pakwan is still my go-to for next-level Indian food, but it's a bit more expensive there with spice levels a little higher than many new to Indian food can tolerate. Service very friendly and responsive. We'll definitely be back, especially since my family loves Indian food -- great value, variety, and quality. read more

Came in for the weekday lunch buffet and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food. They had 3 Chicken dishes and 3 Vegetarian curries, a couple of rice items, Desserts, Samosa, and sauces. They also brought freshly baked Naan to the table, and that was just too good. It looked pretty empty when we walked in, but soon the lunch crowd started to trickle in around 1pm. The staff was very nice and friendly. Definitely worth a try. read more
