Fantastic family run Indian with tasty food.
Last time I visited we started off with some Samosas and Mixed Kebab. The meat on the Kebab was cooked to perfect and practically fell off the skewer – yummy! For the main I went for Chicken Korma while my friend went for Lamb Jalfrezi – we decided to do half and half. For accompaniment we got rice and a peshwari nan. The chicken korma was lovely creamy though did have a lot of sauce to chicken ration. The Jalfrezi was also very tasty and had a nice but not too powerful kick, the lamb was very tender. Rice and Nan were also delicious.
The staff are always very friendly and happy to give you some recommendations if you are unsure what to order. Price wise it is very reasonable and if you are lucky enough to still be a student they do student discount.
Gurkha was an accidental find for us, as the restaurant we were planning to go to was closed.
We left Gurkha knowing that we will definitely be back.
The atmosphere at the restaurant is very homely. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The service was exceptional.
The food was delicious, full of flavour and beautifully presented. Good choice of alcoholic beverages as well.
The restaurant has another branch in Musselburgh that has been open for 20 years. We can see why if they offer this level of service and this quality of food there as well. Well done!
We will definitely be back soon. THANK YOU!
Lovely food! The people were so nice and there was a really chill atmosphere. It smells delicious and the food was assorted really aesthetically on the plates. Will definitely go there again!
Authentic Nepali cuisine. We had Malai chicken and prawn tandoori for starters, garlic naan and chicken biriyani as main course. Personal favorite was the starters and I highly recommend prawn tandoori. As a compliment they gave veg pakora and masala tea which was fab.
I visited the restaurant last week, the food was totally amazing also all the staffs was friendly and I ordered some Chicken Bhuna on Uber eat today and I feel so happy to eat such spicy and fresh food with my family.
Thank you so much for the food😊.
Great tasting food that we were served here. We definitely ordered too much, the tandoori mixed grill can feed 2 people. The service was also really great, got given a complimentary snack while we waited. Which was delicious, small potato with turmeric sauce dressing.
Our first visit to Gurkha Bar and Restaurant it won't be our last. Incredible service, delicious food, beautiful presentation and a lovely ambience! We felt really looked after and it made our visit very special. Every single dish that we had was absolutely stunning! It's good value too. I would go as far as to say this is one of the best restaurants in Edinburgh. Can't wait to return to try something else from the menu. Thank you for looking after us 😃
highly recommend. Affordable fine Indian dining and authentic tasty street food
This is not those typical Indian takeaway places in your neighbourhood. It’s a fine dining place providing a large variety of authentic high-quality food at affordable prices. I extremely like their haggis pakora, and it’s like a wilder version of haggis Bon Bons. We ordered chicken tikka biriyani and their typical lamb curry. The biriyani is extremely flavourful with appetising yellow colours and a fragrant herbal smell. The lamb in the curry is super tender and bouncy, immersed in spicy creamy curry.
Sadly I heard this place might actually turn into a takeaway place due to the small number of customers dining in. I hope I tried this place earlier and I highly recommend it to everyone who likes good food.
Great food and a wonderful experience! Has plenty of space and the staff are pleasant and always happy to help!
Very quick service and great Indian food. The waiter asked if my dish was spicy enough and took it back with no extra charge.
We discovered this new place by chance, and it was an amazing find! From the start it was a great experience: lovely place, welcoming and friendly staff, and a menu with so much to offer that it was difficult to choose what to order. The food was delicious, and the waiter made sure at all times we were happy and needed nothing. From complimentary welcome tasty bites to a sample of after-dinner traditional tea, the evening was fantastic. Did I say the menu was quite extensive? It only means we’ll be back to keep on tasting this gorgeous food!
