First off don’t be put off by the toned down ambiance. It’s a great calm and enjoyable eating environment.
The service from the start was perfect, polite and fast. Not that we were in a rush just good to be prompt,
The starters were of good size , flavour and really started the meal off well.
We then moved on to the curry’s my favourite was the Lamb ‘Musa’ a fry an fish packed with flavour and has enough kick for the fire lovers but lots of levels of flavour. The Rara chicken was a burger with tons of flavour and depth -pair that with some fragrant mushroom rice and good old fashioned Peshawari naan and you’ll be sorted.
Just make sure to try the Ghurka beer

This is an excellent local Nepalese restaurant. As Valentine's Day fell on a working day, I assumed that the restaurant would be busy but there was in fact only one other table who left before us. The menu is varied and we chose from the specials. There were no complaints regarding the food which was very tasty and arrived fairly quickly. Given the lack of custom (although the Just Eat delivery service was doing good business), the service was perfect; neither rushed because the waiting staff were under-employed nor ignored because they were distracted (we've experienced both scenarios elsewhere).
Our only gripe would be that once the main course was cleared, we were not offered a dessert or further drinks possibly because they wanted to go home although it was only about 9pm and they were open for another hour!
All in all a good experience, that would have been made better with more customers to improve the ambiance.

Very tasty food, very quiet dining in on wet day. Service not fast but we were not in a rush so was partly our fault and no issue from our side. Prices fairly typical. Looks like they do quite a lot of takeaways so I will definitely try that out next time. Waiters had masks on.

Having received a leaflet through the door, we went to the Kathmandu Masala attracted by the Nepalese dishes on its menu. We were not disappointed as it offered something different to the more traditional items that one might expect, although these too were on the menu. We will definitely return to try out some of the other dishes on offer.
