Food was not upto the mark to be honest, we order two different dishes.
2 chicken and 1 vegetarian dish!
We explicitly asked to make the food spicy, but it was not at all that. And all dishes where from same base that of tomato be it any item on the menu, all the dishes were same only. Disappointing!
I would like to request the restaurant to change the base atleast if the names of the dishes are different it should also taste differently:)

Tasty foodSeafoodGood value
What an amazing discovery! It was our first time there and we were truly impressed. The staff were incredibly polite, helped us with great recommendations, and the service was smooth and efficient.
The restaurant itself has a lovely atmosphere, very quiet, with beautiful views of the main street, yet not noisy at all.
The food was absolutely delicious. We followed the recommendations of our waiter, Sagr, and everything was incredibly tasty. Compliments to the chefs for such outstanding dishes! I’ll definitely be dreaming about this food, and I’m sure we’ll be back to enjoy more of this wonderful Nepali cuisine.
Absolutely fantastic authentic Nepalese food! The prawn sizzler and mixed tandoori meat and prawn sizzler was superb. Butter naan and accompanying sauce, well… perfect! Don’t miss this place. 100% fab
