Everest Gurkha Nepalese Restaurant in York

First time in a Nepalese Gurkha restaurant and really pleased we booked. It very very authentic, recommended food by the team and welcome warmly. The food is cooked fresh so be prepared to wait, it is worth it, recommend the Himalayan Lamb it was awesome.

Amazing food with a great selection of Indian and Nepalese dishes! The staff were incredibly polite, welcoming, and made the experience even better. The atmosphere was lovely, making it a perfect place to enjoy a delicious meal. Highly recommend!

It was really nice food with great quality and quantity. Highly Recommended.

The host is very nice and friendly.

Everything tasted amazing. Service was prompt and polite. Toilets were clean. All 8 people I was with were happy with the food and service aswell.

The staff were amazing. The food was amazing. Everything was just absolutely amazing. We had a lovely evening. They couldn’t do more for us. Would recommend. Would book in advance if possible as it gets very busy as it’s THAT amazing.

Delicious calm and nice waiter :)

Enjoyed dinner here recently, it was a wonderful experience. The food was out of this world, we had the chicken Tikka and Lamb Taas starters, both were deliciously rich, fragrant and spicy (a lovely warming heat) For mains we had Chicken Karahi and the house special chicken, again both were great, both rich, warming and at the same time delicate. Portion sizes were great and the garlic naan was a nice accompaniment. The staff were all fab, friendly, informative and attentive, will definitely visit again soon. We had the Everest lager and Gurkha beer which were suitably chilled and refreshing and at just over £60 for 2 it was great value.

Great delicious food , never forget to taste when you r in Yorkshire .

Dropped in on chance. Excellent food, and great service. Highly recommended.

I've been in York for 2 week for my trainings I was looking for some Nepalese restaurant somehow I find one of it I was very joyful to serve by friendly staff down there warm welcome I recommend people to try dumplings , chow mein, lamb thank set Will be back soon again

Foods here are awesome and Thankyou for good delivery

We had amazing dine in with you all. Thank you 😊

Best authentic Nepali food and helpful staff

An unforgettable dining experience! The flavors of authentic Nepali cuisine were truly exceptional. From the perfectly spiced momo to the rich and aromatic himalayan lamb curry, every dish was a delight. The warm and welcoming ambiance only added to the experience. Highly recommend this hidden gem for anyone craving delicious and traditional Nepali food.

This was the perfect place to celebrate a birthday! We had a wonderful time, and everything about our celebration was fantastic. The service was excellent, and the staff were so friendly and welcoming. The food was absolutely delicious and full of flavor. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience, and I highly recommend this place for birthdays or any special occasion!

Extremely rude and poor behaviour of the staff. I requested a table for myself and was pointed to a lonely, empty table in the extreme corner, as if sending me to sit there as a punishment. I said I wanted to sit at a diff spot at the beautifully decorated tables, but they refused. A staff came to clean the table, and I went to the restroom, thinking meanwhile they will set up that table for me. But no, absolutely nothing. No hospitality, no warmth, I just didn't feel respected and welcomed. The staff kept saying other tables are reserved for people and they keep that corner table empty like that for solo diners and only set up when people come in. So am I not people??!!! Will u only decorate for the prime minister or what! The restaurant was mostly empty on a Monday evening, they had plenty of space even upstairs, but they would not let me sit at a nice table! I freaking don't understand why I was treated so differently and rudely. I was so hungry and so looking forward to trying Nepalese cuisine, but they don't seem hospitable people. I have been a solo traveller for 6 years now and not once have I been treated so poorly just because I went alone. Utterly disappointed and hurt.

One of best Nepali food I ever had. Everything here is really good. You won’t find anything like this elsewhere in UK.

Food is really good,owners themselves do the serving so really good service had chicken chilli one of the best i had and khana set was really good as well recommended if u like some Nepalese cousin.

Amazing authentic Nepalese food, very tasty from starter to pudding. Incredibly friendly staff, great experience for a birthday night out. Can’t recommend enough, really lovely food and service.

1st timer at this cuisine, marvellous. Momos, Thali and a pud. Each dish full of flavour, quality produce, nice n spicy. One of the best meals I've had for years

Absolutely gorgeous food. Went with my partner, and we have never eaten anything like it. Best meal out in a long time. The staff were lovely too, and service was prompt. Would highly recommend.

Another great meal in this delightful restaurant .Food excellent and great friendly staff what more could you ask for.

Well, what a brilliant place this is, we booked for a very cold and miserable Saturday night and have never had Nepalese food before, it was AMAZING. I am a real lover of spicy and curry foods and this place really did deliver. MO MOs for starter with chilli were fantastic and the main course we had a selection of differing dishes that were just perfect. beer and food was very reasonable in price. Staff were amazing and so quick to help, advise and serve and they really did go all out. I would recommend this place to anyone who likes spicy food to try, amazing

Came across this place while in York, what a lovely place, all the staff are so lovely, the food is to die for, we ended cancelling our reservation at a different restaurant and came back here, and again all was lovely, Well recommended 5*****

Amazing food! Great choice to choose from and staff very friendly. Will go back next time we are visiting!!

Was in York for 3 days and visited this hidden gem twice! Tried meat dishes and vegetarian dishes on separate days and they were all packed with flavour and served piping hot. On both occasions the staff members were very friendly and made sure we’re happy with the food. Had old Everest pork belly curry and it’s beautifully cooked and melts in the mouth. Their fried rice was wok kissed perfectly. Had soup momo and chili momo, thoroughly enjoyed both. Chili momo is pan fried first then tossed in a spicy sauce with onion, bell pepper, tomato and cilantro, which is flavourful and hearty. Soup momo is served in a spice-based soup, I find it to be the perfect starter as the soup is slightly tangy. If you enjoy noodle soup I’d recommend their thukpa, I had tried both vegetable thukpa and special thukpa, it’s noodles in savoury broth with stir fried onion, carrot, cabbage and a hint of garlic and cilantro. The special thukpa has a slice of lemon on which gives it a zesty kick. Will defo visit again whenever I’m in York! Typing this review and I’m hungry again lol

I had the butter chicken. I didn't like it. I also miss the starters like at the Indian restaurant. The dumplings were good but a bit bland. Music a bit too loud. Service was tried hard.

We had to wait a little while to get our table on a busy Sunday and I can definitely see why. Friendly staff, very welcoming atmosphere and gorgeous food. The two ladies who served us were excellent!

Very tasty and beautifully presented dishes.

Delicious Nepalese lamb thahli set and great service

Beautiful food, good sized portions, and a lovely atmosphere. My partner had the lamb curry and I had the pork belly curry- both meats were tender and the curry flavoursome. The egg fried rice was a large portion and light, not greasy or soggy. The fried pork momos are also amazing as a starter! We will be back next time we are here!

I just popped in for some quick takeaway veggie dumplings. It was only 3 on a weekday so it was a little empty inside but the staff was friendly. Hands down some of the best and most tasty veggie dumplings I’ve had in my life.

Stumbled upon this cozy Nepalese spot in York and it’s a total gem! Their momos felt authentic and had the juicy element in it. It felt like a little slice of Nepal right in the UK. They also serve Indian dishes, full of flavour and roadside kick while still keeping it hygienic. 4 stars.

It was my first time eating at a Nepalese restaurant and I loved it. I explained to the waiter that I don't like spicy food and he was super friendly, making fantastic recommendations. The place is spacious and the food is exquisite. We were a very large group and they were able to serve us all at the same time and very quickly. The rice is cooked to perfection and is delicious. Totally recommended!!

Very nice food and atmosphere. Service was very good and the staff friendly. The price is very reasonable.

Lovely food and the staff were really warm and attentive, despite how busy it was. The momos were delicious as was the main course. I'm definitely coming back when I'm in York next.

Absolutely first class food service and staff. Never had such fresh and tasty food. Cannot recommend enough. Will definitely return to York just to eat at Everst Gurkha.

A must try for those who are attracted by spicy flavours. Advised choices: spicy mushrooms, black lentils and traditional dumplings' soup. Great service here with plenty of recommendations from the gentle staff. Cozy atmosphere, the right place if you are searching for a warm short break from the wintry weather.

Booked in advance, lucky we did, was packed. Food was outstanding, staff very friendly and accommodating, a real gem.

As a vegetarian, I can only speak for that but we ordered the Palak Paneer, and the rajma masala, with rice and garlic bread to share. When I first tasted the Palak Paneer, I thought I must have lucked out, and ordered the best thing on the menu (even though everyone else I was with verbalised the same about their choices!), but then, when I got to tasting the rich creamy pressure cooked kidney beans of the Rajma Masala, I think my taste buds melted, so, so good! I can't recommend enough! There were two meat eaters in the group also said "the best meal I've had out in a long time" and other words along those same lines. The thali also looked huge and great! Lovely staff, dealing well with everyone at a busy time!

Fabulous food and very nice staff.

A long, thin restaurant on several floors. Food served very elegantly with good blend of spicy flavours. We had the chefs menu choice which was very tasty. The mango lassi was lovely, and more dessert like. Staff very attentive and responsive. Lovely.

Super polite staff, fantastic tasting food and a lively atmosphere!

A family-run restaurant with a traditional feel, friendly staff, and a variety of dishes. Some say the food is excellent and the restaurant is beautiful.

Nice experience. Food was nice Eager to come back again soon. Thanks for the goods services and food.

Food was best and service too good They have friendly nature I just loved it 😍

Living abroad for year, its mine first nepali home food experience. It makes me feels like having a food in home. Food was very great.

Excellent service as soon as we walked in . Food was excellent. Great food and service experience defo 5 star. Will recommend to everyone. Defo be back again. Thanku very much. The staff and manager were lovely and helpful.

Delicious Nepalese food in a homely setting. It was fairly busy at lunchtime, but service was good. Our dishes were all good - freshly cooked and generous. Prices are very reasonable. Unlike other restaurants, no service charge is added to your bill, which allows you to tip if you wish. If we lived in York, we could try all of the menu. It is very good. Highly recommended. The restaurant was a finalist in the recent contest for Nepalese Restaurant of the Year!

A must visit, for nice authentic food. Simple, very reasonably priced. Lovley staff. Always smiling. The Lamb is absolutely beautiful.

Marvellous experience. I had visited Nepal many years ago as a student, and tasting the Everrst's fried Momos made me feel as if I'd travelled back in time -- they taste authentic and warming. The same went for the mango lassi we each had, which was cool and delicious. Our waiter was a charming guy and we had a great conversation together.

One of the best Nepalese restaurants in the UK, with an amazing staff offering excellent service—and our wonderful sister with the brightest smile! JAYA NEPAL 🇳🇵🇳🇵

Food and atmosphere services all was outstanding

Kosto mitho khanna. Best Nepalese around. Authentic flavours and freshly made food. Friendly and warm atmosphere.

I last visited about 3 years ago, and the food was unbelievable. I came back today and nothing has changed. The food was fantastic, the staff are lovely, I couldn’t fault it at all.

Absolutely blown away, amazing food. Will be recommending to everyone I know who goes to York.

Excellent food. Friendly staff. Highly recommended. We will definitely return when visiting York.

Splendid food, helpful and friendly staff.

Wonderful food friendly helpful staff, it's the first time we have been and can't wait to go again

Believe the hype! Delicious Nepalese food. We loved every single morsel. We had the Lamb Thali, Salmon Thali, Himalayan Lamb, garlic naan, dumpling soup. And dessert, the Carrot Halwa. All exactly the right balance of spices and flavour. All the ingredients were super fresh. We will DEFINITELY come back. Oh and the service was friendly and the prices very reasonable. Less than £100 for 4 very full and satisfied adults :-)

Amazing food. Amazing service. Very friendly staff. The food that they recommended were beautiful. Was reluctant to going at first but best decision made for the day.

First time here , and I was not disappointed , nice friendly people and restaurant , I thought I'd go ' full hog' and try one of the Nepalese specials , lamb with assorted Nepalese ecroutrements , it was outstanding nice , my wife had their take on chicken korma and rice , again excellent, I had a traditional Nepalese beer - nice 😊 , my wife wine , all good and , this being york , not expensive , not far from ' whip ma wot ma gate , abd parliament square, if in york it's worth the visit, opens from 5pm

This restaurant was truly one of the best restaurants we visited in our trip to the UK. The food was superb, the service was good and it had a lovely quaint atmosphere. Loved it.

Amazing food. Service was impeccable. All of my friends thoroughly enjoyed all their food. The spices were beautiful.

“I recently dined at Everest Gurkha, a Nepalese restaurant, and absolutely loved the food! The dumplings and chicken lollipops were the standout dishes—packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. However, the service was a bit of a letdown. We were forgotten for about half an hour, and though we wanted to try a few more dishes, it seemed they were having a busy evening. Despite the service hiccup, the quality of the food definitely makes this place worth a visit. I’ll be back to explore more of their menu!”

My husband and l called in here on the off chance. Friendly service. Never had Nepalese food before. Absolutely loved it. Will definitely return

Great food!!! This is going to be my fav Indian food place in York. Will definitely ho back :)

Really a wonderful place, very good customer service as well as the staffs are very friendly. Foods are amazing, reminds me of home. Would really recommend for anyone around york if you’re craving for some delicious Nepalese food as well as good beers.l and dumplings.

Had a lovely evening meal here recently. The staff were friendly and helped us with our choices. The food was delicious! Great prices for such good quality and generous portions.

The food quality is tremendous with a conducive environment. Staff are friendly with the customer.

Incredible! Chilli MoMos and Himalayan Lamb a highlight! Great food, attentive staff and nice atmosphere!

Good authentic food, but service a bit slow. Small place

Nice authentic food. Good service

It is very hard to please me especially when it comes to food but these guys are the best, from the quality of food to the portion down to the service is superb.. I am vouching 💯% for this restaurant and the food is very affordable.

My boyfriend took me here for a surprise and indeed the I was totally blown away, the food came in time and it the portion was amazing compared to other Nepalese restaurants I have tried around town, I highly recommend this restaurant t everyone both old and new in York

Tourist trap. Not great at all considering the location. The food is below average, the price is ok for what you get but most people here don't come here for service or atmosphere. Won't be returning.

Beautifully cooked food, amazing flavours. Momo and lamb taas to start and Himalayan lamb and chicken sagarmatha for mains. No room for dessert! They offer options for level of spice with obviously more spicy dishes highlighted as such on the menu. Very good value,will be back when we next visit York!

We made a great choice to eat here. The staff were lovely and the service was great. We thoroughly enjoyed our Tahli meals.

Brilliant curry! Had me a Thali and loved it. Cooked to required spice level and all food was fresh and tasty! Will come back again!

Incredibly tasty food. Staff is very friendly. In the words of Arnie, I’ll be back.

We enjoyed this very much. The relaxed atmosphere with caring and attentive service was topped by some amazing food: chicken tikka curry, garlic naan, and these steamed momos, pictured. The richness of the spices and flavors combined with their great service made this a great meal.

Found this place while searching for something a bit different for tea. Really happy we did. The food, service and staff are amazing. Can't wait to come back and try some more. Prices are really reasonable, worth every penny and more.

Absolutely love the food. Can’t wait to get back

I’ve been to Everest Gurkha several times, and never had an issue. The food is always superb and the service is lovely. Everyone is very passionate about serving good food — which in my opinion, is the best in York! Definitely recommend a visit here.

Our first visit. Warm welcome, with courteous and friendly service throughout our visit. The food was very good, tasty and full of flavours. Very reasonable prices. We hope that we will return soon.

Had a superb lunch here today, the chicken biriyani was sensational

I am editing my review by admitting the fact that it was a miscommunication that was clarified the next day. I would increase 1 star

I ate biryani and it was really nice. Tasted more authentic and spicy.The service was also really nice

Absolutely delicious. Atmosphere is cozy and very Nepalese as far as I would know. Convenient part of York to stop and get a bite. Fair prices and good food, what more could you ask for? I got the recommended set dinner. Would definitely recommend.

We had one of the best meals we've ever had here last night. The food was absolutely delicious and the staff were very friendly! We also got to sit on the floor cushions which we loved. Would definitely recommend this place and hope to be back soon!

Adored our experience here. Been craving authentic Nepalese food for a long time, and Everest didn't disappoint. Everything was perfect, and the staff were so lovely - had the best time!
