Everest Lounge in Rutland

Warm welcome. Pleasant staff. Immaculate settings. Good food. Reasonable prices. What more could you ask for?

Just had my first ever pork curry and it was outstanding. It’s often quite quiet but this is no reflection on the quality of the offering. The staff are very attentive and help make the experience of eating so the Everest Lounge a special one.

Great service and good menu nice place and people great five stars

Really nice food, friendly staff, very clean and pleasant environment & atmosphere. Definitely one of our favourites.

Top class food, excellent service and well priced, thank you!

Very good . Great service and food

Goat curry was superb! The staff were lovely, Sang happy birthday to me and brought out cake. Lovely place will definitely be back!

Wonderful food. Attentive service and calming atmosphere. Highly recommend.

Fabulous food very friendly and attentive staff. Actually couldn't fault anything.

We have just had the best Indian dinner we have ever had, served by extremely pleasant and polite servers

Good service and great food and a large variety of dishes. I can’t fault anything. The NEW owner is doing a great job.

The food is excellent at the Oakham Everest Lounge and the staff couldn’t be friendlier. We had a lovely evening, and will definitely be back.

Lovely meal the other evening. Stunning and clean restaurant. The food was amazing and plenty of it . Staff were so friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend and we will be back

Amazing food ..attentive staff and lovely chilled atmosphere! Highly recommended and thankyou for looking after us all 🥰

Table booked for 7pm. Arrived just before. Shown to a table and then shown to a different table (confused) Seated and offered drinks. These took 25 minutes to arrive - and we still hadn’t been given menus. Drinks arrived and offered poppadoms. We accepted and 20 mins later we didn’t have them. Politely asked a passing waiter for them and he apologised. Restaurant was busy and seemed full. I also commented that we hadn’t got a menu and at this point it was 7.45. Poppadoms arrived with picked tray. We were handed a takeaway menu - which seemed strange sitting in the restaurant, but anyway! Looked at the menu and realised it was very different to what we had seen before - we have visited this place lots before and held special family gatherings and occasions here before. At 8.15pm we hadn’t been seen to take an order and no top up of drink. So hubby went to the bar and said we would leave. We explained it wasn’t usually like this to find it has been taken over and under new management. We explained that we had vouchers for our meal as family and friends know we like it there and had given us them for Xmas. Told we couldn’t use them (still in date) as they are new owners. Seemed harsh as it’s still called Everest lounge and the £100 vouchers have been bought in good faith! We left! So I can’t comment on the food - as we didn’t actually eat! But we were surrounded by people in the same situation. A couple next to us had been there since 6.30 and hadn’t eaten! Is it teething problems of a new owner? As a local business owner, I know these stresses all too well. But we would always honour, within reason a voucher bought less than 8 weeks before we took over. So, no. We won’t be back Sorry

An amazing meal. The food was really tasty and well presented. Staff welcoming and efficient, Thank you very much. We will be back

Having had many good meals at the Everest Lounge in the last year or two, we ordered a takeaway on Sunday evening. Sadly this turned out to be the worst Indian meal that we have ever had. The dishes were frankly unpleasant and virtually inedible. To make matters worse the prices have all been raised. We have now discovered that the restaurant changed hands earlier this month and, somewhat annoyingly, the new management can presumably still trade on the good reviews that their predecessor enjoyed on trip advisor. In our opinion it is now best avoided - fortunately Oakham has other Indian restaurants which are in a different league .

Absolutely fabulous … never had Nepalese before, staff were so knowledgeable about menu choices and very friendly. Service was fantastic … highly recommend this place. Thank you so much … will definitely be back … yum 😊

Really great addition to Oakham. The food was exquisite and the service was excellent. Great facilities and really helpful staff.Would highly recommend.

Took the money and did not deliver

Really good evening restaurant. The service was quick and the atmosphere added a special touch to our experience. The food? Absolutely delicious! We started with the Chicken Trio and indulged in the flavorful Chicken Biryani, both exceeding our expectations. If you happen to be in the area in the evening and fancy a bite, this place comes highly recommended.

Great menu with a mix of Indian, Nepalese and Chinese dishes on the menu. Friendly staff and the prices are pretty good as well. Food is really good. 👌 Plenty of nearby parking and within walking distance of other amenities in Oakham if you fancied a wander round while you are here.

The evening meal is at risk, and there are three cuisines available: Indian, Nepalese, and Chinese. Additionally, the atmosphere is astonishing.

Great ambience with hospitable people.very great authentic cusine like indian, Nepalese, Chinese, Tibetan and so on. Loved it.

The evening meal is delicious and the ambience is quite appreciable. I definitely liked those indian nepalese and chinese cuisines.

Food is lovely but service lets it down bit. After we ate our main meals the staff just left us (no asking if we wanted pudding, no asking if we wanted any drinks etc.). We sat there for well over an hour and they didn't bother to check on us at all. Shame, as the food is very good.

The reviews in fact understate how good this place is. From the decor and atmosphere to the welcoming service all top draw. Food was also up to that mark. I ate traditional British Indian - Chicken Masala, onion bhaji both really good. My partner a vegan also had a marvelous meal - Tandoori Broccoli, Dai, smoked aubergine. A really nice relaxing evening.

i went with my family for the evening meal on November 18, and it felt like a delightful experience. The Atmosphere was inviting, staff were friendly, and the authentic food was reasonably priced. I personally highly recommend it

I would thoroughly recommend the Everest. We went on Sunday and Monday whilst having a short break and made a great choice. Having three different cuisines is unique in my opinion and we tried Indian and Nepalese and were not disappointed. The staff made us most welcome and made time to chat with us. Would definitely come again.

Called in early evening and was pleased we did . A very nice meal cooked to perfection , ( pasanda ) The staff was very pleasant. Would certainly recommend 5*

Had a awesome time at this place! Went for an eveninig meal with friends, and the ambiance was wonderful. Loved the variety on the menu- indian, chinese , and neplease cusines. i personally enjoyed the indian and chinese dishes; the food was amazing. The staff was super friendly too! HIghly recommended.

This restaurant truly lives up to its name. The ambiance is inviting, the menu is diverse, and the service is exceptional. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply looking for a wonderful lunch experience, this place delivers on all fronts. The delicious food and...

Amazing food, friendly staff! Despite a Slight delay due to busyness, everything else was awesome. Highly recommend a visit!

The tandoori prawn starter is a must order! They are the best prawns I have ever eaten anywhere (and I'm a little piggy that eats out a lot 😂) the staff are friendly and accommodating, they will happily adjust dishes to your taste. Cannot recommend...

The food and wine were excellent and the staff were lovely. I will definitely go there again next time I'm visiting friends in Oakham

Very nice, dog friendly restaurant. Excellent service. Wide choice of gluten free dishes. Quite pricey but couldn't fault it otherwise.

i visited this restaurant last night with my family and everything was amazing. drinks and food was on time. service was amazing. manager lailaa made sure we were happy and satisfied, she was always smiling. thank you very much we will be back.

The food was acceptable, however the service was extremely poor. There were only 2 other people in the restaurant when we arrived but waited 15 minutes for a drinks order, a further 10 minutes for the drinks to arrive and another 15 minutes before they...

We came last night (saturday night). It was a busy night but it was all handled very well. The manager Lailaa was making sure everything was done on time. Our food was amazing. Service was very good. Lailaa ensured everything was on time and making...

Found this restaurant a bit by accident. The food was excellent and the service good. Some of the nicest food we have had. Highly recommended and the veggie options were excellent.

Ordered via JustEat and app said food arrived at 8pm although no food had arrived. I requested an update via the app as well as trying to call the restaurant multiple times to no avail. Eventually the delivery driver rang me at 9:15pm to say...

Very busy restaurant and great ambiance ! Went on a Saturday evening and they seemed to be struggling with the staff which could clearly be seen however the they kept it all intact. Food is very tasty. I will skip the satisfactory service tonight as...

Service was poor. We were sat for 30 minutes and still no order taken, so we left. Huge shame as the reviews before us seemed so good. Maybe an off night but 2 people serving on a Saturday is far from ideal.

Yesterday i came with my husband and everything was perfect. The service was very good, we had both indian and chinese food. Will be returning. Thank you very much.

Very nice restaurant. Never can fault. Thursday evening was very busy and everything was amazing. Chinese food was the top thing. This is only restaurant for a dine in for the Chinese food. My wife had Indian selections and she loved it. We will be...

Service and food not what it was. Drinks didn’t arrive. Food was very slow.. My main course didn’t arrive with the others. Finally offered a dish I didn’t order and couldn’t eat due to dietary requirements. No apology just told we must have ordered the...

Lovely restaurant,was brilliant that you could have Indian or Chinese.was prefect for us. Good service.

I'm a regular at the Everest lounge, often ordering takeaways and occasionally eat in. I usuall order the same thing tbh, but have tried other wonderful things on the menu and have been disappointed. Lovely place, clean and welcoming.. The patio outdoor area is beautiful...

A varied menu, from Nepalese basics with some Chinese and Indian dishes. We have had several Nepalese meals including Gurkha style and they have something for everyone who may not feel adventurous. The lovely Lelela ensured our meal was perfect and was attentive throughout, making...

Went tonight to take my Mum for a meal and it was fantastic as always. Leilaa looked after us all evening and my Mum and I had a great time. Must visit and try the goat curry! Yum.

A consistently good restaurant. Lovely contemporary decor, excellent service. We went to try the Chinese menu which has recently been added, and everything we had was perfectly cooked and well spiced. We started with the Vegetable Manchurian, Chinese Chilli Chicken and Chicken Saute followed by...

Great restaurant - excellent service from Laila and her team - great choice of Nepalese, Chinese & Indian food. Would recommend you go and try it out!

We went for a birthday celebration, The food and service was excellent.It was great to be able to choose a mixture of Indian and recently added Chinese. We had our first drink outside in their pretty garden. We brought our own cake and the staff...

Our first visit to The Everest Lounge Restaurant in Oakham, Rutland The restaurant ambience was great and a surprising hidden gem in the centre of historic Oakham. Modern and sophisticated decor with a great outdoor space… As lovers of Indian food, we were not disappointed....

Absolutely brilliant - all six of us had nothing but high praise for our meals. It was nice to have the choice of differing cuisines too - Thai, Chinese and Indian. The waitress was very attentive and absolutely hilarious! Monday night and it was very busy, they deserve to be.

We ordered our food on just eat. Usually never had a problem, however tonight, they got our order wrong. We politely called up, which led us to the women connecting us to the delivery driver, we explained the situation which led into her arguing with us saying that we was wrong, we explained we ordered two different curry’s and chips, but got cold chips and two of the same curry’s, she continued to say “i double checked the bag” repeatedly. We then asked her if she could come look at the order and take it back as it was quite obvious it wasn’t ours as it had multiple items inside that we didn’t order. she refused and implied we was lying and then said “i checked with the chef” and that resulted with her ending the phone, so if you go here be prepared to argue when you politely complain.

I recently saw that the Everest had expanded their menu to include Chinese dishes. I was skeptical, but having read the reviews we gave it a try. It was probably the nicest sweet and sour chicken I have ever had. Absolutely delicious and we will be ordering again!

Fabulous service and absolutely mouth watering food 10 out of 10 Lovley atmosphere just a brilliant night overall will be going again very soon

Amazing food and atmosphere the chef was lovely and made my meal less spicy for me. If you want to have a nice evening then visit here you wont regret.

We were hugely impressed by this restaurant. At short notice they accommodated our party of 24 and made us feel very welcome. Food was fantastic and the time from ordering to being delivered to the table was super efficient. Well done to all the staff, they looked after us so well and it was flawless. Thank you

Three of us (myself, husband and our friend) dined here after a day at the cricket. The menu was very extensive with plenty of choice of both Indian and Chinese. We were also thrilled that it served Gurkha beer! It was quiet but still had...

Great food. Was visiting oakham and this restaurant came highly recommended. We were NOT disappointed!!!

Amazing food and atmosphere. Simply the best in Oakham which we and our friends thought over a two week traveling trip. Highly recommended from someone who doesn’t recommend 😁😂

I quite often used to take the takeaways from here. Never had a chance to dine in here. Food is out of the world here and I have visited so many Indian restaurants but here is the first one who served us the fresh strawberry...

We went to Everest lounge on Monday last week. It was a Chinese and Indian menu starting from today. Restaurant was busy and ambiance was amazing followed by the great service .We tried chicken satay, seafood chowmein noodles , Thai red curry on the Chinese...

Lovely restaurant that has expanded thier menu to include Chinese dishes too. Talking to them they serve the large variety of food types due to authentic chiefs. Food was great and highly recommend the goat curry.

Staying in the Oakham Hotel gave us a discount in the restaurant. The friendly staff were efficient and attentive (but not over attentive). The food was superb, good portions , we feel full but not over full... The wine was good too ! I wouldn't...

Food is lovely and staff are also very friendly. The tikka masala is a must have it’s absolutely delicious. I recently went with some friends and can not recommend the food enough. Great spot

the food was tasty but vastly overpriced for the meagre portions that are offered. Very poor value for money. We won't return

Great food and staff very patient

Had a great night last night at the Everest lounge. The starters were exquisite, light and tasty. The mains were filling, hospitality from Bikal and his team was excellent. Prices reasonable. Overall five stars. A great night, I highly recommend a visit.

Food is delicious and they have gluten free options, just ask

Delicious and well priced. We had the butter chicken and the goat curry, both fantastic

Excellent food. It was not cheap but good value as this was definitely the best curry we've had. A food range on the menu to suit all tastes and spice levels from very mild to super spicy. Exquisite flavours across the several dishes we ordered. Service was average, good to begin with, but less than attentive once it got busy. Lovely spacious restaurant with comfortable seating. Highly recommended. £110 for 4 with drinks.

Food was delicious, generous portion sizes, and very efficient and friendly service. Everything spot on. And then afterwards the staff massively helped me out of a desperate situation by letting me use their phone charger, after I'd stupidly let my phone run dead when it...

This is not your standard curry house, far from it! Food very flavoursome, service attentive without being over so. This is the fourth time we have been there and always an excellent standard. Although we come from a nearby town with 6 curry houses, Everest Lounge will always be our go to. Very highly recommended.

Was in the area and so dropped in last min, what a lovely place. Food was absolutely delicious, highly recommend.

Quite a find , been to Melton a lot but never to this restaurant . Highly recommended , superb food , great atmosphere on a Saturday night , excellent service .

We chose Everest Lounge for our last night in Oakham. It was definitely worth the try. There is a wide range of Nepalese / Indian dishes.

Amazing food Amazing flavours Best food we’ve had in 3 years Good service 10/10 Worth a visit 😋 We will definitely be back

Very cosy and warm ambience Restaurant, Food is delicious and service excellent, Lamb Shank is a must try!! 😋

Top-quality food and customer service. The authentic Nepalese foods are very tasty and authentic. Will visit again soon. I highly recommend this place.

Very Different to other restaurants You really must try this food & dont be afraid to try something you have never tasted before or worry about asking the staff Its a little expensive but well worth a visit

Ordered home delivery. Food was amazing full off flavour, ice cream puddings were out of this world amazing! large portions arrived on time, arrived hot. Made mine and my partners night perfect after a long day will Definitely be ordering again!

Staff was friendly and the prices for food are a reasonable cost

We went to dine in yesterday and they were fully booked, we got seated immediately and drinks and papadoms were served swiftly, starter took while to arrive and food was just on time. The restaurant was full packed and clearly we can see staff struggling...

We were celebrating our 20th wedding anniversary but when we got here our booking had been cancelled?? We were eventually seated but then ignored for 15mins so we left.

Gorgeous restaurant with rich, succulent dishes. Oh and crisp Gurkha beer. Thanks

Very good quality Nepalese/Indian cousine. Goats curry is a must to try. A bit more expensive than a normal takeaway but absolutely worth it.

First time trying Everest Lounge tonight and I was impressed but not blown away. Collection was easy and I got 20% off my bill because I collected. The onion bhajis could have been much crispier as they were quite oily however they were tasty. I ordered the goat curry which was extremely tasty with tender goat and the chicken tikka masala had lots of sauce which was full of flavour. The peshwari naan was light, not like some others that are doughy. They forgot my poppadoms which was a shame however they did refund me within an hour. Overall the food was very tasty and had lots of flavour however it didn’t impress me enough to not want to try anywhere else next time

We ate the goat curry and a chicken curry with some Dahl , rice and naan. The flavours were excellent and the naan was of a quality that it wa a light texture and not too filling, nice Gurkha beer too and very good service.

Fantastic food, had a lamb biryani that was delicious. Service was impeccable, and Rahana was excellent

Amazing night!! Rahana is the most amazing host! Food is fantastic, will definitely be coming back!!

Food delicious ,service excellent, will be back soon. Thank you to the amazing people who made the evening special.

Food was very delicious good hospitality service.

It was my first visit to the Everest Lounge. I visited with a couple who have been several times, and now I know why! The food selection was sublime and absolutely delicious from start to finish. The ambience was clean, well laid out and relaxed....

Lovely menu, delicious food. A large group of Nepalese people were eating there when we visited for lunch, which is a good sign! This place is an excellent addition to Oakham’s restaurants.

Awesome high quality wonderfully cooked food and excellent service, wonderful attention to detail. Highly recommended.

Visited again.This time tried the scallops superb !! Malabar king prawn was to die for. Good range of cocktails and the interesting menu. Will be back again soon.
