Gurkha Royale Restaurant & Bar — Restaurant in England

Absolutely love this place. Incredibly delicious food, generous portions, and impecable service.

My favourite dish is the Nepalese GR Saag with lamb, also available with chicken, prawn, or paneer. It's a tasty spinach curry with a little spice, but not too hot. You will do well to finish a portion, but they will happily package up any leftovers for you to take home.

Their Naan is unlike any naan I've had. It's quite thin and less doughy than traditional Indian naan. It is so tasty and comes in a variety of flavours.

Lastly, the Steamed Chicken Momo (dumplings), also available vegetarian or lamb. The lamb overpowers the delicate dumpling a little in my opinion, but the vegetarian or chicken are sublime.

I would highly recommend a visit. I've tried a few other dishes like the Himalayan Goat Curry and some of the Indian dishes such as Butter Chicken and Rogan Josh and they are all stellar. Every dish I have tried has been exceptional, and I've probably only tried 20% of the menu.

Honestly, I was apprehensive before our first visit because I tend to avoid restaurants that have different cuisines (Oriental, Indian, and Nepalese). The old saying, "Jack of all trades, master of none) comes to mind, but this place is an exception.

Lastly, the service is impecable. They are so friendly and professional. I couldn't wish for a better restaurant on my doorstep (10...

Ordered prawn skewers and there was barely any flavour on them, not even salt, infact the most tasteless skewers I’ve eaten. They said they didn’t have kids menu and that we could choose a dish and they would make kids portion. They made a huge portion and charged us full price. The chowmein noodles were so tasteless and oily and not suitable for kids. Rest of the food tasted ok. Chicken jalfrezi was tasteless and I only tasted sourness nothing else. Chicken tikka was good.Chicken Biryani was fine but the rice was a little too oily. I had asked to set up the table for a Birthday for my husband and daughter which they forgot. So that was huge money wasted for us as we could have gone to another better restaurant who would have made note of that as it was a special occasion. The staff there come over to the table too many times to check if the food is ok, which can get a bit annoying while you’re trying to eat. The Indian salad was definitely not an Indian salad - huge chunks of carrot, parsnip, full green chillies and cucumber sprinkled with some Indian spice. Overall, the food isn’t worth the price and the drinks specially water are overpriced for such an average restaurant. So it was a very disappointing...

We went to as a group of 15 people for a birthday meal. We booked via phone and not required deposit for it. As we went in, everything was set up and welcomed us. They had poppadum and dips free of charge on the table. I ordered the meat and seafood royale platter, it came out sizzling hot. Also ordered a side of plain rice. The beef choila was tasty but a little dry and the fish cake (salmon) was salty! The chicken and sheesh kebab were nice. It came with grilled onions which was complimenting well. The Himalayan goat curry, had a nice presentation and came out like a thaali style with small dishes. However, rice could have come in a bigger portion.

In the past, I have ordered mutton biryani, and was tasty but it felt more like a curried fried rice than a biryani. It came with a complimentary raita. Which was lovely. Ordered, pork sakuwa for starters, enjoyed it but very fatty as it was pork belly bites. Also ordered the creme brûlée, which I loved!

The service from staff was good and friendly staff, however we had to remind them of the items they had forgotten to bring to the table.

Downside of this place is the difficulty of finding parking. You have to find parking on side roads...
