The Chimney Restaurant is one of the oldest and most popular restaurants in Kathmandu, Nepal.

We had a wonderful dining experience here, perfect for celebrating special occasions. Starting with the salads, both of them were fresh and our favourite pick would be the arugula feta salad, it was a little sweet and refreshing. We loved the Russian borscht made of veggies. The lamb chops and the grilled salmon were the stars of the show! Worth a visit here! The prawn was crispy and perfectly flavoured. A trio of frozen ice cream wrapped in meringue made the baked Alaska delicious! Also, the serving with fire was something unique for us!

The service here is top-notch. They are always happy to make recommendations and help you choose the perfect meal.

The atmosphere at The Chimney Restaurant is elegant and inviting. The restaurant is decorated with traditional Nepali furniture and artwork. The dining room is spacious and well-lit, and there is a large outdoor patio where you can enjoy your meal on a warm evening.

During my visit to The Chimney Restaurant, nestled within the historic Lal Durbar palace at Hotel Yak & Yeti, I was thoroughly impressed by the blend of traditional and contemporary ambiance. The setting, adorned with a sixty-year-old copper chimney, creates a unique and charming atmosphere that complements the exquisite dining experience.

The food was amazing, with each dish showcasing a perfect balance of Asian and Western influences, leaving a lasting impression on my palate.

The service was impeccable, with Saurab, Abiral, Rabi, and Dipesh ensuring that every detail was attended to with care. Their warm hospitality made the evening all the more enjoyable.

The highlight of the meal was undoubtedly the Baked Alaska, which was nothing short of fantastic—perfectly executed and a delight to the senses. Overall, The Chimney Restaurant is a must-visit for anyone seeking a memorable fine-dining experience...
