Amazing first experience, went for dinner, not expecting anything new but was in for a surprise. Starters were steamed moto, which were simply amazing, never tasted anything like the sauce before, still can't identify it. Had the sherpa special for main which was a beautifully cooked 'stew' very mild but very tasty. Went with a couple of vegans who were thrilled at their choices. Have to say I tried the vegan chilli 'chicken' and could happily eat it all day. My new favourite eatery has been discovered, happy days.

First time eating Nepalese food and first time ordering vegetarian food from a restaurant. Food was mouth-watering and flavoursome. The person taking the order was very polite over the phone and took his time to understand and acknowledge me. He was very respectful. So I felt it is a very family friendly restaurant and can't wait to go in next time and take the family.

Good sized portions. Very tasty. The Everest curry is creamy and flavoursome, with plenty of meat, as had the more spicy Ghorka special karahi. Service prompt and courteous. Bill very reasonable for the quality of the food.

I’ve ordered take away from here many times and in the past it really has been lovely. However the last 2 times I’ve ordered there has been food missing from the order mainly Naan bread and the last time they sent me the wrong type of samosa. I wanted the hand made ones and they sent the cheap frozen ones. When I called to say the Naan was missing I was questioned about it like I’m lying. I asked for a refund for the samosa and was told it can take 30 days!! They did send the replacement Naan pretty quickly and low and behold the correct Samosas were also in the bag. But it’s not good enough when your spending £30 for a take away for 2!! I’m disappointed as I really did like Gorkha lounge. It seems the quality has reduced. The customer service isn’t great for take always and the price is expensive, especially for the bread products. U have to buy 2 because they are so small. I will be reluctant to order from here again.

So food was delivered on time. But the Sherpa sekuwa chicken (see picture). Is a breast of chicken with herbs and spices. A small naan and some mint dip Cost £9.95. Bit expensive. In fact the most expensive breast of chicken I have been purchased in my life. And I have sampled food in many countries and restaurant types.

Great reviews. Interesting menu. Make a booking online. Turned up. Restaurant closed. Looked as though it had been closed a while. Went to Aluna instead. Had a great meal. Advice - call to make a booking, don't rely on online.

I'd been out with a group of chums to see "Dune: Part 2" (oh, and I have opinions about THAT!) and fancied something appropriately spicy afterwards: The spice must flow! We chose Rumana's on a recommendation from a friend's sister, and I'm glad we did. Their website says they "pride ourselves in treating our customers like members of our family", and it really felt like we were old friends visiting someone's home (especially with the well-behaved kids scooting around and being generally delightful - and I don't even like kids!) I think we were served by Rumana herself, and she was welcoming and helpful - a real pleasure to meet someone so engaged and enthusiastic about their restaurant, and being a great host. The other staff were also very polite and helpful, and knowledgable about the menu. Speaking of which: The menu has a selection of dishes which seem unusual and possibly unique to this restaurant. I won't go into too much detail about my friends' dishes, but all were given the thumbs up. The poppadoms came out first, of course, but the accompanying sauces need some props: Their chili-sauce-gravy thing was incredible (I almost asked if I could take some home). Most curry / balti restaurants in Brum seem to have their own 'red sauce' and it's not often one stands out as being extra-special and worthy of a paragraph of review: This was one of those special sauces. Spicy, tangy (tamarind?), thick, and with a huge amount of flavour. Well done, chef! For a starter, I had Shunamoti: I've never had a cheesy chicken tikka omelette before, but I will certainly have it again (and probably learn to make it at home). Very unusual, and very tasty. for my main, I decided to opt for something at the spicy end of the scale, and had to ask about the story behind "What the Bloody?!" (yes, that is what it is called) - no spoilers! You'll have to find out yourself. It warranted three chilis on the menu (not the hottest thing they serve), but this was a home-cooking 3 chilis and was at the top end of my spice tolerance (which is quite high), so be warned! I can recommend the mango lassi as a wonderful 'control rod' for the naga reaction. However: The dish was not just hot for the sake of being hot, but had a real depth of flavour, too. The accompanying roti was fluffy, fresh and hot. I am also reliably informed that their Peshawari Naan is one of the best my friend had ever had (and they lived in India for a while), drizzled with honey and with juicy sultanas embedded within. The restaurant is unlicensed, but there is a small shop over the road where you can buy booze if you need to. It's also next door to a 'Spoons if you want pre- or post-curry cask ales. Overall, a great experience. Northfield seems to be THE place for getting something authentic, unusual, and very tasty these days (I reviewed the equally excellent Omar Khayam a few weeks ago). I'll be back to explore the rest of the menu at some point: I definitely need to try the Atomic Chips!
