Himalayan Gurkhas

This Nepalese restaurant is the only one I know of on Sydney's Northern Beaches. The sauces here are distinct from Indian cuisine, with dishes being cooked longer. We compared it to our favorite Indian restaurants by ordering Roti with garlic and coriander, which was similar to Naan bread but with a unique twist - the coriander was mixed into the dough, giving it a slightly different color but still delicious. I enjoyed the Beef Curry for $17, with an additional side of plain rice for $3. Unlike nearby Indian restaurants, this place charges for condiments and rice separately. The beef in my curry was tender and well-cooked, indicative of the longer cooking times. However, the "tomato gravy" sauce was milder than I expected. My partner ordered the Lamb Bhutuwa, which she found to be medium hot as requested, although I found it a bit tough. While I rate the beef curry as very good, my partner's dish was enjoyable but not excellent. Overall, this restaurant is a great choice when you're looking for something similar to Indian cuisine but with a unique Nepalese twist.

I have eaten in and had take away quite a few times and have never been disappointed with the food. It is very disappointing to find the place frequently empty though as this is not a reflection of the cuisine. If this restaurant were in a different location (ie with more passing trade), I'm sure it would be full every night. I love the chicken curry, momos and everything else I have tried has been excellent. I have certainly been to more chic Nepalese restaurants but this one has by far the best food and very good service.

I have been to this place twice in the last 6 months and I just cannot go past the goat curry. It's full of flavour, the meat is super tender. Garlic roti is light and tasty. Beef curry is also very good. Service is friendly, the girl remembers me on the second visit. She must have seen many people, yet she remembered that I visited a few months before.

Great service and food. Plenty of variety to choose from. We found the restaurant by accident and were pleasantly surprised. Owners were lovely.
