I went to this restaurant with a bunch of friends on 19th of April 2008 after a bush walk. I was absolutely starving so I was looking forward to a big feast.
After reading a lot of good reviews about this Nepali restaurant, I was rather surprised to find the restaurant absolutely empty. We were the only customers. The Italian Restaurant next door was completely full. Anyway, we were welcomed into the restaurant... To my liking, the water was promptly provided and refilled at regular intervals... The restaurant had a large TV and was showing a Nepalese wedding... It was interesting to watch some dancing and wedding formalities of the Nepalese people... However, my friend was quite annoyed since the music was repeated over and over... I did not mind though.
The menu was quite large and there were a lot of dishes available. The waitress made a mistake or we did not order correctly since we wanted to share the entrees. We were surprised to get a plate each consisting of samosas and dim sims.... However, to my surprise, the entree was really tasty. I didn't really care about the mistake.
For the mains, I ordered Chicken Korma (Cannot remember the Nepalese name). The dish was tasty however did not have enough salt. I went about sharing and tasting all the other dishes ordered, however some of the other mains consisting of lamb, beef and paneer were quite disappointing. Many of my friends did not finish their mains (I finished mine though), which could only mean that they were not satisfied with their meals. Although we were charged for the rice, there was plenty of rice available, which is never the case when visiting other restaurants.
To conclude, the absence of other customers and some meals not being up to standards, I would not go back to this restaurant in a hurry... I am not sure how long this restaurant is going to last since we only saw 1 customer getting takeway during our visit.
Score: 6 out of 10.
