This nice family restaurant provides a pretty nice atmosphere where you can enjoy fantastic Nepalese and Indian cousin for a very good price. You can select the level of spice and the side-dishes which are very flexible. The service team is very lovely and customer-friendly and they don t hesitate to fulfil extra services and customer wishes.

This is a little gem. A menu covering Indian and Nepalese dishes. I love the momos. The staff are warm and welcoming. My husband and I have been 3 times. It is now our favourite place. The price is reasonable. Go and enjoy!

Simple, tasty, family cooking. Wonderful service. Particularly enjoyed the steamed chicken momo (dumpling) and samosa chaat. Support local independent restaurants!

Amazing all round. Very tasty food, freshly prepared. Homely feel to the establishment, when we went there was relaxing music in the background too. The food is top quality and actually it's very good value for money. Definitely don't miss this place if you're in the area and like a bit of Indian/Nepalese food

A gem of a place! Beautiful, little cosy restaurant with lovely food and lovely staff. We ordered Nepalese Chicken curry, Fulka Rotis, Chilli Momos and Saag Palak. The food was yum. Everything was very fresh and tasted authentic. We also tried their Gurkha Beer, which was surprisingly smooth and light. The chilli momos could have been a bit more spicy though, but still good. The staff were very warm and welcoming. We had a delightful experience. Definitely recommend.

No frills restaurant, authentic Nepalese food. Refreshing to try something different. The owner was passionate about the food and explained how each dish is cooked. Highly recommended.
