7 of us ate here and all had different choices all of which were delicious . We all chose dishes with a Nepalese origin and they were very interesting . Expect large portions and to be offered how hot you want the dishes . Everything was beautifully cooked and served very promptly . It’s very small but we were fitted in comfortably . You need to bring your own alcohol . All the staff were very friendly and it was a very good experience

We keep returning here as we really enjoy the food and the friendly, yet professional service.The food is excellent and I really enjoy the nam breads, which are thinner than the ones you usually see.The menu has a good selection of dishes, including the popular dishes you expect to see on an Indian menu, plus some special Nepalese dishes.Already planning our next visit….

Probably rates amongst one of the worst meals we've had. We are great fans of Nepalese food which makes it worse. We ordered lamb momos and the Everest Mixed Grill Sizzler. The momos were badly unfrozen as the dumpling was falling apart and the filling was tasteless as was the dipping sauce. For the Everest Grill suffice to say that several lumps of overcooked meat on a bed of burnt onion should never cost 14.99. To top it all, a half an hour wait and continual bickering coming from the kitchen

Great food and first class customer service make eating here a tasty treat. The people of Barnstaple are lucky to have this gem on their doorsteps - it’s even on Just Eat. The dishes and flavours are authentic Nepalese and took us back to a holiday we had in Nepal pre Covid. The Chefs Specials are very good indeed we tried two of them - can’t remember the names but one was first on the specials menu and the second was last in the list.

This is the best takeaway in Barnstaple amazing food the chili chicken is a must! If you have not tried this takeaway then you are missing out! When the restaurant was open to sit in we ate there often bring your own drink and enjoy seeing your meal being cooked fresh its like being in your own front room! May they forever stay open and we look forward to eating in the restaurant when all this craziness is over!

We've been here on numerous occassions over the last few years and is one of our favourite destinations for food. Lovely couple Romi and Milan cooking away in the background never fail to please with outstanding Nepalese food. The Momos are superb and to be fair so is everything else.Bring your own Alcoholic drinks with a very small corkage charge to pay for the disposal of bottles etc and the cleaning of glasses provided.One of the last times there we squeezed up on the same table as Drew Pritchard from Salvage Hunter who was in Barnstaple filming.A friendly welcome always and a fat belly to go with it too.Just Lovely.

Visiting Barnstaple, found this little place which looked more like a takeaway than a restaurant. So pleased we went in. Delicious Nepalese cuisine, prepared and cooked in the same room, with just a counter between the kitchen and tables. If you’ve not had Nepalese before, the Everest specials use authentic Nepalese spice mixes - very tasty.

The food here is wonderful. The layer upon layer of flavour in the dishes is truly amazing. I would recommend eating in so you can get the food fresh off the grill/pan. They also have a BYOB policy with a very small corkage fee. The owners are very friendly, and they employ some very polite and attentive waiters and waitresses.

My Cricket Team were looking for somewhere to celebrate a great season so we decided on Everest Gurkha Chef and I am so glad we did. On arrival we were greeted by a Young Lady who showed us to our seats. As there were 10 of us we were asked to pre order our meal as everything is freshly cooked this was not a problem. Within 10 minutes the Poppadoms had arrived along with a dish of mixed toppings ..very nice. Our starters were not far behind which were hot and very tasty. The main meals came after along with a mixture of Naan breads and Pilau rice all piping hot. Everyone agreed that the meals that they had were really Flavoursome. As the Restaurant is not licensed you have to take your own alcohol but they do sell soft drinks. All Staff were very friendly and with it only being a small restaurant you didnt feel rushed. Thank you for great food I for one shall be returning

We did not wait long less than 5 minutes but staff apologise, we was shown to our table, we ordered drinks and looked at the menu.Menu is well laid out ,explaining what was in each dish and at the side how hot that particular dish was. We both had popadoms with a dip, we order momo very delicious. My husband had mushroom rice with lamb sherpa which he enjoyed I had special vegetables rice with swadaillo chicken also very enjoyable.

Momos were amazing and came out quicker than the 25 minutes we were warned. Obviously with pompadoms to keep us going! I had the Himalayan chicken curry which was really flavoursome and perfect heat for me as I requested hot! Can’t recommend enough!

The service was efficient and the menu choice was great. Many regular dishes one knows but also many different ones too. The food is freshly prepared and cooked and you can taste that in every dish. Portions sizes are above average and great value for money. This will definitely be our go to Indian restaurant whenever we are in Barnstaple.

We were a party of three vegetarians and decided to visit Everest Ghurka based on Trip Advisor reviews . We were so disappointed. The vegetarian selection is minimal and nothing to get excited about. Being a tiny restaurant the sound has nowhere to disappear so we couldn’t have a conversation as the two large parties near us totally dominated. We were in and out in thirty five minutes. Such a poor dining experience.

In Barnstaple with a colleague and looking for a Curry. This place cropped up on TripAdvisor so we gave it a go. VERY glad we did. Flavour profiles subtle and spicy, all sorts of different flavours going on, lovely Momo (dumplings) and Chicken Sansari, delicately spiced, but enough, and my colleagues lamb, sublime. Totally different experience to your standard curry and very reasonably priced. Well worth a shot. Only seats 18 so get in early or be prepared for the wait.

BYOB is an added bonus, keeping costs low. The only slight disappointment is the service. There used to be a lovely girl who made sure drinks was kept in the fridge and the table always got topped up when needed but the last time we went we had to ask for glasses and keep all our drinks on the table. Doesn't put us off though.

A lovely busy little restaurant which has a bring your own drinks policy. A good menu with some old Indian favourites but more importantly a wonderful selection of Nepalese cuisine and a very difficult choice to make. The curries, rice options and breads are simply delicious and a terrific and filling meal would costs around ÂŁ20 for one.An excellent & almost personal waiting service is provided from the hardworking hosts to ensure your meal is enjoyed. The Himalayan chicken was suitably hot but it doesn't have to be just let them know.

We had a table booked for nine people, which grew to twelve (and a half - one two year old, sharing her parents meal) Many CONGRATULATIONS to Everyone at The Everest Gurkha Chef. Besides our tables taking up an extraordinary amount of space in an extraordinarily compact venue the service and food were simply the best. The plates were warmed, all the meals hot (temperature wise, although there was a choice of culinary hot/mild/medium) and fresh prepared. No 'flapping' by the staff who served us in a friendly, professional manner. In fact what they turn out with not only a small staff, compact premises is truly magical. Everyone of us were more than pleased with our chosen dishes. The small amounts of food left over were only because of small appetites and that was put into take-away boxes for consumption at home. The two year old took home some left over Naan bread. I saw the bowls being wiped clean of remaining sauces with the homemade Naan. Truly worth doing. As it was my son's birthday I ordered the starters to be shared amongst us. Onion bhajis were crisp and light. Never having had Momo (a steamed dumpling) before I also ordered these for sharing. As we were a mixed crowd of vegetarians and carnivores just the veg variety was ordered but there are lamb ones, also.Not only did they cope with our diverse choices, they also had people coming and going throughout. Whether they dined in or came for a take - away. Well, done to Everest Gurkha Chef.I am sure we'll all be returning...and you can't say better than that -W E L L - maybe as I'll certainly be recommending it to anyone and everyone.

What can I say that I didn't say in my last review of this lovely little restaurant! Excellent tasty Nepalise food, lovely staff, and BYO which makes a change, and not such an expensive evening. Having said that, the prices are very reasonable and the portions are very generous. I brought some food home. It's nice to have the option of medium/hot for the meals, and medium was just right for me. We had a fab evening here. Although it's small, there is a good atmosphere and good service. Essential to book.

We popped in to the Everest Gurkha Chef after picking up the recommendation on Trip Advisor and we weren't disappointed. (Remember to bring your own alcohol if required and they do supply soft drinks if required)This is a small restaurant with basic decor and about 20 covers but it's great food so don't be put off by the initial appearance.We started with fresh poppadums and pickles etc which were good and then followed with a Tikka Massala and a Chicken Sunsari - the latter I hadn't heard of so thought I'd try that. The waiter was very friendly and asked what strength we'd like the curries which was a good touch as they can adapt them to your taste. A lot of the curries are Gluten Free, which suited my wife, as were the poppadums of course! We had boiled rice and a garlic rice and a keema nan (keema not GF) - all were freshly cooked and piping hot. Always good to see local regulars in there as well which tells a story too!!Good grub, good flavours and worth a visit.

The food was fantastic, I had the Sunsari Chicken which was delicious. My food had the Tandoori King Prawn Masala, she said it was really good as well. The service was quick and the waitress was very helpful and friendly and the chefs also came over to ask if everything was ok, which was really nice of them. I would definitely recommend this restaurant despite the basic setting, we will definitely be returning soon!

After not having an Indian meal for 2 years I was so looking forward to eating one. I ordered chicken shaslick which totally lacked in that authentic flavour that Indian food has. My other half ordered a curry dish, he also felt it lacked in flavour.

Recommend by a few locals as well as Trip Advisor. Outside appearance is misleading, as is the very simple decor and the fact that there are only 20 covers. The food was very fresh and tasted great - the owners uncle had been a Gurkha so a genuine link with the nameOverall well worth a visit but take your own if you want an alcoholic drink

This was our first time visiting the bistro and would definitely recommend for anyone who is a fan of Thai food to go and give it a try . The food was excellent. Service was good apart from one waitress she was kind but very forgetful …. We had asked for some more drinks which we never received and the manager came round to see if everything was ok and he served our drinks . We had the same problem with the waitress when paying our bill as well . This was the only reason I didn’t not score it 5 stars
