Chillim Kitchen in Reading - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Lovely Staff, amazing food was nice to try different dishes and share the flavours. Definitely come again

Unfortunately my expectations were set quite high for this place when I saw the reviews on Google. The menu is condensed so you would expect everything to be available. However, when we asked for the tandoori chicken we were told it isn't available and will take a long time to prepare it if we are willing to wait. I had 2 hungry children with me so waiting wasn't an option. The food that we did get in the end was tasty and cooked well. The condiment that came with some of the dishes wasn't to my liking. The place is quite small you can possibly get 28 people. I didn't enjoy the atmosphere either. There was a big screen TV with Indian music videos playing non stop. It's a shame as I hate writing negative reviews.

Enjoyed best moment with my family here Nepali taste🤗🤗

Absolutely delicious! Also good price. Definitely worth visiting - perhaps one of the best local restaurant that I've seen.

It was a lovely time spent at Chillim with my friends having delicious chillli Momo and we loved the fries 🍟 ❤️The staff was also very sweet and kind will visit again for sure ✨

Great food and service , Sonia was great on briefing food . Will visit again

Thank you for great food and service. Monika baini is great 😎

Delicious (really!) food, great staff… beat noodles and momo!

Fabulous food…a taste sensation!

Delightful atmosphere, nice secluded spot 😁😁... ordered 2 portions of rice, and were only bought 1 portion, but we didn't mind since the portion was so big!

It’s a good hidden place. Great taste, I had the chicken chowmein and would recommend. Nice atmosphere.

Best Nepali food in town 🤤😋😍 Taking over all other restaurants 💯

Excellent food and lovely staff. Great value for money. Really nice red glass of wine too. Definitely visit them again soon. Small place but do not let it put you off. Yummy food.

Great food, friendly service, and delicious tasking food. Can't ask for more.

good food highly recommended thali thukpa chatpatey👍

One of the best food and hospitality in Reading.You all need to visit this Restaurant👍

One of my anytime-anymood-go-to-option. I had food at restaurants and I did order to home as well. The taste reminds me of the street style food I used to have at hometown. The place is a bit cosy but, maybe that makes the food more enjoyable.

Food is pretty good! Had some great curry and momo here!

It is really sad that I’m having to write this review but unfortunately, being their customer from the last 7 years, I have every right to express how horrible my experience has been with chillim the last 2 times. I do not recommend this place anymore and will not go to chillim again. Despite their staff and owners knowing me, no one greeted us. I even looked at the owner hoping I’d say a hi if he smiles or says hello, but nothing. He just asked the servers to come from inside and serve us. They never used to be like this and I was always greeted with a smile previously. Next we decided to place an order and I requested for chilli oil with momos, for the first time in the last 7 years, the server came back and said they don’t have any. I said no worries, thank you. I have introduced so many of my friends and family to this place and it’s just sad to see them behave this way. Chillim recently started doing 10% off if we post a pic of them on our instagram and tag them. I shared a pic and tagged chillim on my story the last to last time I went and they gave me a discount. The second time I went with a friend and shared a story again, the lady said unfortunately the discount can only be availed on the “next visit”. Today, when I visited them again and showed them the picture they said “no sorry, you have to post it as a permanent picture on instagram”. Why are they lying so much? 10% off won’t make much of a difference to my bank account, but the ethics and loyalty is lost from their end. It’s as if they have offered the discount only to attract customers and then cheat them by coming up with different terms and conditions! I told the lady we were told we will be given a discount next time and she declined. Chillim I really hope these £10 that you have saved today help you in the future because you’ve lost a customer and her friends and family today. Horrible customer service, If a customer of 7 years can be treated this way, god knows how new customers get treated.

Brilliant service. Very tasty Momos thoroughly enjoyed it as well as the noodles. Thank you

Cozy little place for amazing indo-nepali dishes. Amazing taste!! Pocket friendly. Must try for Indian Chinese food lovers...very similar taste.

As we ate twice times over here . It is really fantastic restaurant . Food was really delicious and staff were friendly . Please visit by Chillim . Pretty sure you will be satisfied 😊

Don't order takeaway. We ordered 2h in advance and were asked to pay up-front, when we arrived, 2 minutes before the pickup time, they cancelled. A very bad drive home for us and no refund in sight. UPDATE in response to reply: It seems that the fault may be in choosing foodhub to handle orders, they do take money up front on your behalf. I'm questioning if they even managed to give you the order at all or if they just messed us both around. From reviews of them I might suggest you find an alternate company to represent you in this.

Good food!!! Friendly staff!!! Highly recommended

Nice combo meal & thank you Sonia for your quick wonderful service.

Unbelievable, i ordered at 10:20pm.I was told the food would take 15mins to be prepared, so I sat down and waited inside. I was the only customer. Waited till 11pm and I still have not received my food. The chefs and staff were having fun in the kitchen. I walked out after they told me it's going to take another 5 minutes. I could still see them just laugh in the kitchen without the slightest concern about my food. Lost appetite to have your food, and genuinely disappointed. Please dont run a restaurant if you don't know how to care for your customers.

We had a lovely meal at this small and intimate Nepalese restaurant this evening. My favourite was the chilli chicken momos which were nice and crispy and flavourful. We asked for the chowmein to be made spicy and they delivered. Only think I would say is that the tandoori chicken was overcooked and burnt and I didn't like that it was served with what seemed to be siracha sauce. I would prefer for it to be served with chutney. It did seem nicely marinated, just needed to be grilled less. But overall we had a lovely meal, prices are affordable so I'm sure we'll come back at some point.

Excellent food, friendly service, reasonable prices. Mutton thali, pork and veggie momo, and samosa chat all recommended.

Lovely food, at a very reasonable price. Hidden gem.

No complaints regarding with food , as well as great costumer service , our server monica T was very attentive, helpful throughout the menu and chawmin momo combo was very good suggestion love it

Very friendly waiters making our afternoon tea enlightening. The omelette is very delicious and you must try them.

One of the best nepali food in town. Lovely staff and food is really good. Best spot to have chatpatey and alochop.

This restaurant has left me the best impression and this restaurant is being able to forget my home country food which is good. Whenever I feel carving for nepalese food I always come in this restaurant. The staff are so great and friendly specially the little one(Monica), she is so fast and smiley and lovely girl. The atmosphere was awesome and Everything was delicious. Just woww🤩👌👌👌👌👌🥰🥰

Opened again and the quality is very good. The prices were increased a little bit but are average prices. The good is fresh made and delicious. The person did not understand exactly what I want but I accepted to try a new dish. Happy with.

Best momo in town! Get it here if you want authentic momo!

Absolutely love the food and atmosphere. Flavour is amazing and service is really friendly. Definitely one of the best restaurants in Reading. Would return for sure.

Great service and tasty thalis.

A very simple family restaurant, wonderful food at very good prices, it isn't a big place so I expect it gets full quickly at peak times

Have been to this lovely place for a couple times . My favourite was Thukpa . Chow mein and egg fried rice are yummy too ~ definitely recommend P/s the chef need some time to prep food so need to be patient.

The food and service were absolutely fantastic i was craving for authentic nepaliwala jhol momo & it was beyond my expectations. If anyone wants to try nepalese food. Please do visit chillim kitchen 😁

Food is always consistent, whether delivery or dine-in. One of my favourite Nepali restaurants in the UK!

Had an amazing time thanks to Monika, kriti and the team❤️.Food was very tasty and the vibes were so good .Amazing service and great selection aswell😍.Can’t explain how good it was-get down there and try it out you will loved it .And i am the regular costumer aswell😻

Food was amazing, Service was fast , Monika was super friendly and helpful. I usually visit because of the service .

Must try restaurant. It's small but they have quality food.

I like this place. Even food was awesome. I recommend chatpate and thukpa which i tried. I recommend everyone to visit this place and try mango lassi as well.

Food quality and quantity has been compromised

Positive + 'authentic' momos and Thupkas + vegetarian options + friendly and helpful staff + clean washrooms + Proximity to highstreet + feels like right pricing not too expensive nor cheap for the quality and quantity Opportunity - could do with more vegetarian options - music would help elevate dining experience

Great food and a clean lovely location away from noisy roads. Superb variety of traditional Nepalese food.

Delicious food and Excellent service. Thank you MONIKA!

We tried Fried momos, pani puri and noodles which were all delicious. The buff sorry but I wasn’t for my taste. Other than this everything else we ordered was great. Love the chutney Will definitely come back.

DELICIOUS FOOD! nteresting, authentic menu with lost of unusual options and some classics too. The food was fresh and so so tasty! The place was absolutely packed with a a nice atmosphere and the service absolutely seamless. We were given a choice about spice levels for each of our menu choices. Would highly recommend!

A better place to spend the weekend with family.

Scrumptious 😋😋all food items.... Best👍🏻Nepali Restaurant with quality of great services.... must visit....

Yum, freshly cooked yummy food, close to my office, I go there for lunch to eat jhol momos everyday 😀

Our favourite Nepalese in Reading! Friendly staff. Highly recommended.

A small, Formica table family place. I had shapaley starter (like a curry puff with minced meat filling), and buff shukuti chow mein (yes, it's a thing in Nepal too) . Buff is buffalo. Both were delicious, and that was plenty for 1. I'd recommend and go back, for unpretentious Nepali food in a simple setting .

We ordered Chicken Fried rice - Fried momo combo and Thukpa momo. Food was delicious with right amount of spices and salt.. Reasonable price..

Food was absolutely delicious and the service was excellent. Excellent value for money. The restaurant is a real find.

Best nepalese cuisine i ever had . This place is perfect for any party or events . It is very spacious and provides excellent service

(Chef) Prayas dai cooked mitho khana, Environment and food are very good ❤️

Good experience very tasty food

sukuti chapatey and pork momo was very tasty😊

Looking for restaurant and bar like this for longtime now, Finally find a spot in reading will befo visit again soon 😋👍

A feast for the eyes and the taste buds with great serice

The food I had was okay, not much atmosphere but it open fairly late which is useful

Really friendly, really good. A bit slow but we enjoyed the moment.

Small but very good restaurant. The quality of food cooked by chef is superb 👌.The food was very freshly prepared and piping hot served from pan . The staff chef Prayas , lady and everyone is so good and friendly . Highly recommend to go with your family. Chiili momo , noodles and Thali are highly Recommended 👍🏻👍🏻. Thanks for our awesome experience!!!

Its a decent small place. We had momos and chowmein and they both were good.

A nice pleasant surprise. Small restaurant but really well kept - neat & mainly really friendly staff & service. The food was fresh & tasty, simple menu but done well. We tried the salad, momos, chowmein & fried rice. Each dish was freshly made, and spiced just right. Will definitely visit again.

We celeberated our daughter's birthday party here recently in the basement decorations and tables were great and the food was very nice ie; delicious starters freshly cooked punjabi veg samosa, chicken n pork dumplings momos, fried pork ofals, chutney, battered hot chicken wings and aludam and dry fried parched rice chiura. Main meals chicken curry lamb curry prawn crackers salada daahl lentils mix veg curry all absolutely very tasty. Thank you Chillim Kitchen.

Great ambience and delicious food!

FSA awaiting inspection for rating.

Amazing food, nice and friendly staff members !

Not the true taste the way it used to as the previous restaurant

Amazing food and outstanding service as always!!

Food quality is really good, we loved the items. Restaurant is not much crowded. Another good thing is they have variety in menu - nepali, thai, Chinese etc. Compared to other nepali restaurants in Reading, I will prefer this.

To start with it's no longer a tandoori although that's what the sign says & it doesn't even do tandoori though it has all other oriental cuisine on the menu. My dumplings didn't come with any kind of dip which was disappointing & my curry was too spicy (Thai Green) but perhaps that was a bad choice - though we did ask if red or green was hotter & there was no advice that both were pretty hot. 2 people left most of their mains but the starters were nice & the mango lassi.
