Crossed Khukris Gurkha Restaurant in Nuneaton and Bedworth

Saturday 6pm 2 adults. Friendly greeting. Pint of the ghurka larger and a shandy. Complimentary poppadoms and pickle tray fresh and tasty. Starter chicken dumplings where amazing and the spring rolls delicious with a hot chilli dip. Main shanghai chicken so fabulous with a garlic naan. Chefs special chicken nice and hot delicious favours . Very enjoyable.

Great food, asked for medium spice, was mild, so will be going for the fairly hot next time.

Excellent throughout, greeted when we 1st got to the restaurant, taken to our table, the service was outstanding along with the food we had ordered,4 of us dined and all 4 had different main meals, cooked to perfection, i highly recommend this restaurant.

As usual, moans first - parking can be awkward on your first visit - nothing to do with the restaurant but its the only thing i can think of. What an establishment this is. If you were unsure about the Gurkha link before you went in you'll be certain once inside, the place is decorated with everything Gurkha, walls, place mats, beer, plates and the staff wear tradition dress, staff are very friendly and greet you with a smile as soon as you walk in, unsurprisingly it can get busy so its advisable to book, and although not the cheapest place to eat you get what you pay for. My wife and I had the Gurkha Thali for two, 2 poppadoms with the relish tray to start, then 6 Momo's and 2 Samosa's, easily split between the two of us, delicious. Then we had a lamb curry and a chicken curry, which we could choose as being mild or hot, a plate of boiled rice and a naan (we had a garlic naan). How you have your curry and how you split the rice and naan is up to you, you can always order extra if you wish, we had a plate of chips to go with ours and we were both full having devoured it, and again it was delicious. Brilliant place to go for a special meal.

Loved it, polite and attentive staff. Fabulous food. Definitely eat more here. Give it a try

Family of 4, all had excellent food and fantastic service. Verry reasonable prices.

Absolutely incredible food, definitely the best in the area and our new go-to! 10/10! Also astounded at how affordable it was, we were expecting to pay significantly more for such a great meal!

When I work away from home it's often difficult to find somewhere nice to eat. This restaurant is fantastic, the food delicious and the staff are very friendly. The Cross Khukri beef special was delicious as were the Momo for starter. Thank you for a fantastic meal.

All excellent. Attentive, pleasant staff.

Absolutely amazing! Sandeko Khukura was divine! Free delivery sizzling hot to the door 🤗 Unexpectedly became our favourite takeaway!!!!

Nice place tucked away. Clearly proud of military connections. Very friendly

Honestly the best place to eat put in nuneaton, I cannot stress enough how good the food is, the staff really are welcoming and the place is in a great location

We booked for family dinner and we had a fantastic time. Food and service was excellent, staff were very attentive. We are looking forward to our next visit soon.

This place is amazing, beautiful food and lovely staff, highly recommend. We had the sharing meal for 6 and the choice and quality of the meal was excellent!

This is without question the best Gurkhali resturant ever. The food is awesome, atmosphere great and service brilliant

Very good food, tasty and authentic. Service was beautifully polite and attentive. Looking forward to returning 😀

Wow! Love Nepalese food and this the best!

Great restaurant. Food is good, authentic and reasonably priced, staff are friendly and dress in traditional clothing. Highly recommend it, takeaway is also good.

Excellent food will definitely visit again

Genuine, friendly staff. Fabulous food. Felt very authentic. Definitely worth a trip.

Lovely food, charming staff, had a wonderful evening, very courteous

Friends took us to Crossed Khukris. It was fantastic. Having arrived shortly after opening time we were among the first to order. Thankfully though we had a reservation as within no time at all the restaurant was full. We received a warm welcome and were shown to our table immediately. The menu was extensive with so many great dishes to choose from. Service was first class all evening. This is a restaurant that we will return to when in Nuneaton.

Excellent service staff extremely helpful and the food absolutely delicious

Superb food, excellent customer service and value for money - would highly recommend. We will definitely be coming back to this restaurant!

Just had a takeaway from here, took over an hour and forgot my husbands chicken rice BUT, all is forgiven. Food is amazing and really generous portions so, we had leftovers, definitely ordering again!

Amazing genuine Nepalese food with an extremely friendly team of staff. The menu is designed for everyone from mild to hotter than the sun curry's. I highly recommend their Momo though, it's the best I've had

Went out for a family meal the first one in a while booked a table for 5 o’clock and arrived on time . We were seated and bought drinks and ordered our meal, 45 minutes went past so we ordered more drinks, an hour past we were told our food wouldn’t be long and ordered more drinks, 1 hour and 45 minutes passed and we decided to leave to which it cost us £30 for drinks. All the time we were there they were bringing food out for takeaway drivers.I never got an apology until I wrote a review and a message to them on fb and then their customer service was disgusting. They obviously do not care about the customers who come to their restaurant. It cost me £18 on Uber taxis and then the £30 on drinks and then to not eat and not get a heart felt apology. I will definitely not be using this restaurant again

Went there the other day with my family. We had a nice time last we went there so I thought it would be the same. Unfortunately there was a hour and a half wait for the starter alone and we could see them bringing countless takeaways out of the kitchen, obviously taking priority over that than their actual customers who took their time to actually go to the restaurant. We even booked a table in advance to make sure we would have a spot, but they didn’t even care about that. After waiting for a total of an hour and 45 minutes we decided to leave, and even though one of the staff seemed apologetic, they would continue to have us pay full price for the drinks, even though us waiting was why we had so many drinks to begin with. If they at least gave us a discount on our drinks or something then I might be more lenient, but all they’re saying to my mum, who’s also put a review, is “we’ve already apologised what more do you want?” Which I think is disgusting and disrespectful. Definitely won’t come back here again. But the Chinese we had when we got home was great at a quarter of the price 👍

Superb service, chicken special was amazing, lamb slightly dry. Well worth a visit.

It’s been a while since we last went to this wonderful restaurant (23 years). Absolutely lived up to expectations. Friendly folks serving brilliant food. Our son’s first visit “The Best Chicken Curry, I’ve ever had”. Definitely won’t leave it so long until the next visit.

Booked a table for 5pm we arrived on time. Ordered drinks and received soft popadoms with sauces. After waiting a further 1hour and 45 minutes without receiving our meals we decided to leave. We never got an apology or anything deducted from our drinks. Will never be returning to this restaurant. All the time we were waiting loads of food was being bought out of the kitchen to takeaway drivers

Terrible service, cared more about take away customers than restaurant customers, waited over an hour for food, the table behind had been waiting over two hours and walked out as did we. Sort out your priorities and customer service

Went on my 30th meal with my family. Had a lovely time. Great service, food and atmosphere. Best restaurant I have been too.

We have been to this restaurant several times, and order takeaway regularly. Whether you have takeaway or dine in, you are assured of a friendly and warm welcome, excellent service and delicious food at really good prices. This visit was for my birthday, and it was a lovely way to start the evening! Thank you to all the team for another fabulous experience with you. I cannot recommend this restaurant highly enough.

It was a very busy Wednesday. After waiting for nearly an hour, we got our table and it was Worth waiting. Delicious food, excellent service by friendly staff, Highly recommended!

Amazing food, exemplary service and the place was full and buzzing. Brilliant meal and excellent value.

Our second visit Wow, this place rocks. We went with two friends, as always, the staff are excellent, very polite and friendly, the owner has an enduring smile and a personality to match. The food was excellent, all 4 of our group enjoyed a memorable meal. Interestingly this restaurant is busy even on a cold and damp Thursday evening, that tell you loads. Oh yes, I had the chilli sausage as a starter and the Nepali beef, which melted faster than butter. Well done, thoroughly enjoyed the food, the generosity of the staff and the ever-smiling owner. धन्यवाद

Me and my fiance went there for a celebratory meal on Saturday and not only was the food absolutely beautiful but the staff were so friendly and went above and beyond for us. We would highly recommend coming here and you won't be disappointed. We will definitely be going back regularly from now on.

We ordered nepalese curry beef, curry chicken and fried noodles with mutton.. It was delicious.. The beef and chicken were tender and both the curry were lovely and of different taste.. Go check out the menu recomended by chef and their specialities. Lovel and delicious

The owners were very accommodating and the food was lovely, they were happy for us to swap out some of the curries in the Thali for four which we appreciated. Momos were great!

Guest of the owner and our friend Super night. Great stories great company.

Best Asian restaurant/ takeaway in town, first class food and service you will not be disappointed

The food and service are excellent

Great food Loverly staff. Well worth a visit 😋😊

Had dinner here one evening while on a work trip. Best food of the entire trip! And staff were very helpful and friendly. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent place, fantastic food, good service. Would recommend

It was a great place to enjoy spiced vegetables, warm breads, and tender meats, all in a friendly dining atmosphere. There were lots of options on the menu.

Having only eaten Indian food I didn’t know what to expect, but I have discovered Nepalis cuisine I won’t go back. The food was excellent a lot lighter and more flavoursome than your typical Indian restaurant. The staff were attentive polite and very friendly, as for the owner he is still every inch a Ghurka Sgt Major. Definitely visit again but will bring friends next time.

Another fantastic evening spent here ,food and service are as always wonderful and the delightful Mr Om is a superb host once again .

Another utterly wonderful visit to the best restaurant ran by the most top top top bloke that is Om Prasad Gurung MBE. Has it really been 25 years…

Lovely food and friendly service. No rushing you out as soon as you finish. It was very quiet when we went so the atmosphere was affected by that but if you want a leisurely meal somewhere you can hold a conversation this is a good choice of venue.

Saw the reviews for this restaurant on Tripadvisor and decided to give it a go. Wow!! Absolutely amazing meal, really lovely staff and the lovely owner was a joy to talk to. Would definitely go again if we’re ever in the area.

There's not too many restaurants you visit that, to top the A-grade quality of all our food options & service, the owner commits & dedicates time (and gratitude), to come and speak to the customer directly. You can see how much Om (the owner) has belief & dedication in his business. If you haven't been there yet, you are really missing out on a treasured, relaxed evening. THANK YOU OM!!!

Good meal. Good Gurkha beer. and new loyalty card friendly chat with the owner om

Lovely Food, people, and atmosphere 👌

Excellent experience. Beautiful food and service

We’ve been meaning to visit for years and finally made it last night. Absolutely lovely meal, such fresh flavours in all the food. And absolutely lovely service too, such a warm and friendly welcome from everybody and it continued right through the meal. See you again soon

The best food, I've ever tasted

Great place, fantastic food, great staff

Always have a wonderful time. The food is beautifully prepared, the staff are very friendly. Would recommend

Had take away/delivery from here a few times now. Always hot, always tasty, always on time/early. Really nice, thanks again.

Food tastes delicious although portions are a little small, atmosphere is tranquil and perfect for eating. Decoration makes you feel like in Nepal, music is nice.

Very welcoming, lovely food. I definitely recommend this great restaurant

Amazing delicious food. Attentive friendly staff in beautiful traditional clothing. We went for an impromptu meal on Xmas Eve as we were having drinks in the pub and nowhere was open for food. We found this place and it way surpassed expectations! I hope to return next time I'm in town. Those Momo's!

The food was perfect, can't fault anything, service is very polite, the venue itself is not the best in town, but the food is, highly recommended

Nice food but kept trying to take my plate before I had finished

Wonderful meal was had by all. Room was a bit cold but the more diners, the warmer it got. Lovely to see the owner again as it appears the place has changed. Missed my hill bill sauce with the special Cross Khurkris Gurkha chicken but was really full and happy from it all.

Had a takeaway absolutely delicious ordered 2 curries one rice and a naan bread. Delivered on time with complimentary popadoms and dips. It was outstanding highly recommended 😋

It was a Sunday so very quiet. We were the only ones there towards the end, but the food was as good as ever.

Warm & friendly welcome from the staff and the food is amazing. We booked a table and we're glad that we had as there was a steady stream of people coming in to eat and they were also busy with takeaways. Starters: meat momo x1 Mains: sizzling lamb chops (no. 38 without sauce, with chips!); beef pahdi (no. 39 mild with rice); chefs special prawn (no. 46, with rice). Drinks: cider x2 (£3.60); large glass wine (£5.10). Meals were hot & absolutely gorgeous. I could definitely have had a hot beef pahadi, but I'll have that next next time, as we'll definitely be returning.

Another excellent takeaway from Crossed Khurki ( via just eat app). Will definitely order again (and again). 👍👍👍

Best Nepalese/Indian restaurant in this area. High quality food, comprehensive menu and pleasant, helpful staff.

The food is amazing, great flavour and good portion sizes. The staff are so friendly and cannot do enough for you.

Amazing food, attentive staff and great atmosphere. The owner being ex royal signals was a bonus too. Certa Cito!

Excellent service, from well informed, friendly staff. The food is superb, cannot recommend this restaurant enough.

great food great staff owner lovely been coming here for years

Been looking forward to dining here for some time.. Right the slightly negatives… The interior does look a bit tired. The other bits. The restaurant food is simply brilliant. The waitress was charming and efficient. They offer free poppadum’s and chutney. Brilliant idea, one other...

Brilliant service and fabulous food

Excellent service Excellent meal best restaurant meal for a long long time a pleasure to go there

Another lovely meal from Om and family. Cannot fault the food. We regularly have friends and family visiting from Solihull and Birmingham and this is their highlight. Flavoursome food, served by lovely staff.

Lovely guys and the food is fantastic!

Fantastic food here. Enough to take home for tomoz, halves the cost!

Update: Recently visited after a long time ignoring my own last review for delayed service and now changing rating from three to one star for more worst experience ☹️. Went on Sunday evening with a friend and ended up waiting for ~40 minutes to get our food severed. When we mentioned the delay, we were bluntly told by the waiter that WE HAVE TO WAIT AS WE HAVE COME AFTER OTHER GATHERING WHICH WAS BEEN SERVED ON PRIORITY !! Firstly there was so much delay in serving food and on top of that replying rudely was too much of an insult. As a restaurant, if you know that you cannot serve your customers on time then you should call out before making them seated, allowing them to take a wise decision nor making them wait for long and responding rudely. This was my last visit for sure. -------- Previous review ------- Food taste good. It is one of famous Indian/Asian restaurants in Nuneaton. Only reason for 5 stars is the slow service. On my last visit I happen to loose my patience at the end. Suggestion: Better to go for take away. Order 15-20 min advance & pickup.

Very poor service. On saying that it was a long wait, the waiter replied - you have to wait. If we knew we had to wait for an hour, then we would go to some other place. I am not going to visit there again.

The food was absolutely amazing

I always enjoy my experience with these guys however last night I ordered a takeaway. Without doubt the most amazing takeaway I think I’ve ever had. I always order the Arun Nadi Jinge because it tastes lovely but last night made me realise again how incredible the food always is. Thank you so much. Can not wait to order again. ❤️

It's been a year or so since we have been here, but in reality very little has changed. Lovely staff, good atmosphere and amazing food. There were 10 of us and service was very good, never felt rushed at any stage, and it gave us...

I was so grateful to have the privilege to dine at this amazing establishment, where I was greeted was beautiful, friendly staff who go the extra mile. The food was flavoursome and the recommendations were spot on. I am fortunate to get a taste of true nepalese cuisine and would like to thank everyone at the restaurant for their wonderful service and experience. Do not miss out and book a table!

I have been to many Nepalese Restaurants and I can say this is one of the best one. Excellent customer service and delicious food.

If you have ever wondered how the perfect food taste like and would like to try Nepal's traditional cuisine don't hesitate but go straight to Crossed Khukris Gurkha Restaurant. You will also get the nicest and the sweetest service from the staff. Don't think twice....

Sat in for a meal, all the staff were lovely and meal was amazing

Excellent food, excellent service, always a pleasure eating here.

Great food and very friendly staff

Hom the owner runs a small but atmospheric restaurant. The place is well situated in the town centre and is a wonderful place for a quiet secluded meal with your wife/husband or family and or friends. The decor is simple but effective and the staff are very helpful. The food is excellent and the prices are competitive, this place is well worth the time and effort to go and visit. Clean, tidy and great food. One to try when your in Nuneaton.

Restaurants is average, Food wise very poor Nepalese owner is good but One of the British lady she has short hair she is the rudest person We ever seen .. she don’t know how to deal with the customers . I think she don’t like Asian customers around she judge the people … I will advise all the people don’t go to their restaurants …

It was a day when I and my partner came to the restaurant after making appointment, I didn’t like the approach of one of the old english lady who had a brown short hair. She was very rude to us and her words were very harsh. She was very arrogant and felt she is not treating customer in a way one should. I came to know she was one of the partner of the restaurant. Its not a restaurant that is bad, it is that lady approach who made us feel bad and is not good for the image of such a nice restaurant of the town.

This really is the place to go for a special occasion or if you just want a great meal. Consistently good quality every time I have been. The staff are professional and very friendly and welcoming. Love this place.

Great food, good atmosphere. Very friendly and helpful staff.

If you don't know what Nepalese food is like, you are in for a treat! Imagine north Indian/Chinese food, but with a fresher taste and far less oil. A range of delicate herbs and spices, with superb quality meat, all form some of the tastiest food you can get! If you also add the range of breads, my favourite is arguably the best Lashun roti (Garlic naan bread) you will ever taste. I have been visiting the Crossed Khukris since it first opened in 1998 and regularly enjoy a monthly take-away. The refresh of the restaurant has given it a good update, made it more "airy", lighter and even more comfortable. When you enter the restaurant, you are greeted by the friendly staff and the owner, all smartly dressed in traditional Nepalese costume. The choice of drinks either at the table or on the soft chairs by the bar. I recommend the Gurkha Beer (lager) that comes to you in a giant 660ml bottle, would love to get a case for home. There's a range of beers, wines, spirits and soft drinks. They even have Coca-cola in glass bottles. I have not seen that for years. They divide the menu vegetarian and non-vegetarian. I have tasted almost every one of the starters over the years. However, my favourites are the Momo (steamed dumplings) with a range of fillings. You dip them into sauces that take them to another level and Sandeko khasi, a Lamb dish of cooked over charcoal and marinated with sesame seeds, fresh chillies, coriander, onions, capsicums and spices. They serve it cold with sliced seared onions and fresh salad. My wife loves the Sandeko khasi, but has a passion for the Chilli Sausages. The range of main courses is really extensive. Again, if you are familiar with "Indian/Pakistani/Bangladeshi/Chinese" food, you will be in Gastro-heaven with the choice here. I love the Lamb and beef (yes, they do beef in Nepal) curry. The range that the Crossed Khukris has on the menu is wide enough for you to eat there once a month for four years and never have the same dish twice! The specialities are wonderful, on this visit I had the Gurkha beef that is usually a very hot dish, however, I cannot manage it hot at present and they cooked it mild just for me. I also ordered boiled basmati rice and a garlic naan. The wife ordered chicken chowmein, but not the sort you get at a regular Chinese takeaway. It has a different noodle, with garlic, chilli, ginger, herbs and spices. It's a very aromatic dish that comes out in a cloud of steam and fills the air with a pungent smell. She's had the lamb and beef versions and orders it regularly. She loves the Chef's special prawns too. A really unusual dish if you like shellfish. From sitting down to being presented with some complimentary papadams took only a few minutes. Our starters following inside a minute or two of our papadam's being cleared away. As usual, we swapped halfway through. I wish Om would offer a mixed starter so we could have a little of each of our favourites. The restaurant was busy for a Friday night, where weekends are busier in the restaurant than in the week. Personally, I love eating there on a Thursday night. It's busy, but not as much as the weekend. The main course took a few minutes from our starters being cleared away. We had already drank the very quaffable Gurkha beer and ordered some more. Service was fast and efficient. Our main meals came out and I think I've found a new "must have", in the milder Gurkha beef, it's gorgeous! Fresh aroma of herbs wafted up from the plate, mouthwatering! The size of the meals on the monogrammed china fills the plate. The basmati rice was delicate and cooked to perfection and, being totally honest. You could just give me a plate of the Lashun roti (Garlic naan bread), I would be a happy man!!! It's soft, with a texture within the bread where you get the flavours of sour yogurt and the buttery goodness rolling over your tongue, then bam! Soft garlic that doesn't come with that harsh hot/bitter flavour you would normally associate with other garlic breads. Usual high standards, look forward to next months visit!

We visited the Crossed Khukris on Friday 22nd April 2022. Our table was at 8.30pm, parked right outside the front door where theres on-street parking. A bit of history if you are not local, the owner, Om Gurung, is a former Regimental Sergeant Major with...
