We went there first on a Time Out voucher deal, which was absolutely excellent value for money. The first courses in particular were delicious, especially the momos (Nepalese dumplings) but we loved all the food, so much so that we have been back several times. We have always found the staff friendly and the service good. It is a very small room with only about three or four small tables, so it is not surprising if it's hard to get a booking when the food is so good, but we have always gone just after they have opened in the evening, without a booking, and have never failed to get a table. They are now our go-to (or rather, stay-in) place for delivered meals as well. Although we live in East Dulwich where there are loads of Indian type restaurants, we think The Gurkhas Flavour beats them hands down and has a much more interesting menu than the bog standard khormas etc (though you can get those as well if you really want). I can't understand the couple of negative reviews on here. In particular, if you have a voucher with a certain time limit and conditions, why on earth should any restaurant change those conditions to suit you? You knew the score when you bought the voucher, and they have a business to run! The time limit on the voucher is quite long! It's very unfair to accuse them of poor customer service just because you didn't get your act together! We have always found their customer service very good!
I have been ordering from them for about 2 years since I moved to Greenwich. I have to say, although I am quite picky about my curry, their food has consistently been top quality and delivered within predictable timelines. If you want fresh ingredients and are into a really spicy dish, I recommend trying their Jalfrezi.
Their customer service is also top notch. One Friday night I ordered from them and forgot to choose the credit card option online so I had to pay cash. It was quite late and I did not realize the default "cash" option had been selected and I was short of the cash amount I had to pay. The delivery guy was very helpful and offered to come back the second day to collect payment. Needless to say, I felt compelled to get another delicious curry for Saturday dinner and repaid the previous owed amount. Amazing service, try these guys out!
We had makhani chicken and gorkhali lamb,
