One of the best curries I've ever had. In Birmingham (for the first time) for the weekend for an event at the NEC, and spotted this place nearby; with it's 'amazing' and 'excellent' reviews it stood out, and it certainly didn't disappoint! We had the Kathmandu Special Chicken Curry, and the Home Style Chicken Curry (Nepalese special, and on the bone), Keema Rice, Chilli Paneer and Onions Bhaji's. Everything was indeed amazing, we savoured every bite! The curries were full of different flavours and just delicious. The rice was fragrant and again lots of great flavours. Chilli Paneer was a good portion size compared to many others I've had, and the paneer was fried off with a slight batter (giving each piece a crispy outer, and soft inside), coated in a slightly spicy chilli sauce. Three good sized onion bhaji's (one portion) which as I think I've already made clear along with the rest of the food, full of flavour, plus a good ratio of crispiness on the outside to the softer part in the middle. We called 30mins before arriving to see if a table was available, and where accomodated quickly even though half way through our visit the restaurant had got very busy with other reservations. We were warmly welcomed, attended to frequently by friendly staff, and also had 3 different members of staff come over and ask if our food was ok. Finally we were given a send off by a senior member of staff as we left. Overall an amazing/excellent visit (just as the reviews before described), I wish this restaurant was closer to home as I would be a regular; will be sure to visit again if ever nearby in the...

Read moreA Hidden Gem Right on Our Doorstep!
My wife and I had a sudden craving for momo after months without—and to our surprise, we discovered Kathmandu Nepalese Restaurant just around the corner. Despite never having visited before, we popped in on a Friday lunchtime without a booking and were warmly welcomed by the friendly manager, who immediately made us feel at home and even recommended a delicious Nepalese beer to start.
The restaurant itself was spotless and tastefully decorated, creating a relaxed and inviting atmosphere. We began with a shared starter of momo—both chicken and vegetable varieties, five of each. They were absolutely huge, served with a generous helping of spicy dipping sauce. Honestly, some of the best we've ever had.
For our main, we shared the Kathmandu Special Chicken Curry—a house Nepalese dish bursting with flavour, perfectly spiced without being overpowering. Paired with a soft, fluffy garlic naan and a portion of chilli chips (which were spot on), it made for a truly satisfying meal.
Throughout, the manager remained attentive and engaging, even sharing a bit about his background, which added a lovely personal touch to the experience.
All in all, a perfect lunch. Great food, great service, and a new favourite we’ll definitely be returning...
