Gurkha Royale Restaurant & Bar in Windsor and Maidenhead

Big thank you to the staff who were really helpful in sneaking in birthday cake to surprise my daughter for her birthday. Great food and amazing service 👌

Decided to get away from the Legoland madness for dinner out and glad we visited this restaurant. Went as a three, with our 5 yr old and nothing was too much trouble. First off service was excellent and all staff genuinely lovely, which I think really adds to a place. Quality of food again was absolutely excellent and we enjoyed every mouthful. Sounds strange to say but my 5 yr old had the standard kids choice of chicken nuggets and chips but even that was on a different level, they looked and tasted handmade like they'd breadcrumbed them themselves, and so tasty. Finally atmosphere was great, with restaurant nicely busy and a good buzz (someone even had a birthday cake). Would definitely return if ever back in the area.

I recently tried this restaurant and was pleasantly surprised! The food is very good with rich, bold flavours, perfect for anyone who loves Indian cuisine, even if it may not be strictly traditional. The service was fast and smooth, especially for collection orders, which made the whole experience super convenient. They also offer free delivery on orders over £15, which is a nice bonus and feels reasonable. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for tasty Indian food with reliable service.

One of my favourite curry houses. Brilliant

Fresh and full of flavours. Enjoyable dinner 🍲

We often go here to celebrate birthdays and always have a wonderful time. The staff really make an effort to make your visit special. And of course the food is amazing! The goat curry was as good as the reviews say. Try it!

Such an amazing place a must go. The momos and garlic naan were some of the best I've ever had. The atmosphere was relaxing and the staff were perfect. They were so friendly and welcoming. It was our daughters birthday and they went above and beyond to make her meal special.

It was really nice staff very friendly and helpful 👍

Took the office team to this restaurant for an appreciation dinner, and we were all amazed by both the food and service. From the moment we stepped into the restaurant the service was top class, extremely attentive and generous in their recommendations of which dishes to take. The food was fantastic, and service staff could not do enough for us. Desserts were not ordered as we were full after the starters and mains. Would highly recommend, and will certainly return.

What a fantastic find. Food is absolutely delicious.

Fantatsic meal and amazing service

Food was lovely, it came out quite quickly too, way too much but obviously that's a good thing

Exceptional food and brilliant service. Worth the 65 miles drive from Bexley Kent to get here. Highly recommended. Brilliant as always. Exceptional Food and unmatchable Service. PERHAPS The Very BEST in the UK. Thank You.

Mirjeta was a lovely waitress who was so friendly. Came for a lovely dinner with my family and really enjoyed the environment and atmosphere, thank you very much

Gurkha Royale is an absolutely incredible restaurant bringing cuisines from Nepal, India, and China into a colourful and energetic venue. The wait staff are fantastic - taking time to explain dishes on the menu without even being asked to. Service was quick and personable. I was surprised to see such an extensive drinks menu, the cocktail options were expansive. Opting for my favourite cocktail, a caipirinha, I was completely blown away by how well made it was - having been to Portugal (the sister nation of Brazil) and had authentic Brazilian made ones - this caipirinha rivalled those. Incredible. The food itself was simply magnificent, generous portions and delicious ingredients. Having such an array of dishes to choose from is a trick that many restaurants miss out on by sticking to just one cuisine such as Indian or Chinese. There is a vast range of Nepalese, Indian, Chinese and Thai dishes to choose from here. And to top it off, the music they play here isn't the regular cheesy crap you get at most places - proper hits from Diana Ross to Stevie Wonder. 5* for Gurkha Royale. Thank you to both Mirjeta and Prayas (our main waiter). Such kind people and made the experience that much better. *to note - they don’t take tip on card here so if you want to reward the lovely team, please bring cash*.

Such fantastic service from all the staff. Friendly and happy. Mirjeta looked after us so well and made the evening very enjoyable. This will become our regular.

This place is amazing by far the best Indian/Nepalese's restaurant around! The food is incredible, the service fantastic (Prius was top notch!), and the atmosphere is great. I would 10000% recommend this place and I look forward to going back!

Food was spot on and Inku (the bartender) was very courteous and made me feel extremely welcome! 10/10 service!

Myself and my wife are massive Curry fans, and I can only we are absolutely gutted we don't live more locally because this would be a regular without a doubt! Whilst having a trip to Windsor just for a couple of days to see Castle etc we stumbled across this restaurant and it is absolutely delicious, would thoroughly recommend the goat curry, chicken wing starter, lamb momo and lamb meatball starters. Amazing quality, you must try if your visiting the area, nothing negative to say whatsoever, fantastic restaurant!

A beautiful Setting Run by the Most Delightful folk, with an atmosphere as idealic as the food they serve, which is more crafted than cooked. From the Oriental Treasures to the South Asian Fire Crackers they Craft it all. A must visit for any one in the locality, and a brilliant venue to spend a quite evening after a busy day at Legoland which is under 5 miles away. Thank you Guys, Each time we visit Windsor, this place we shall never miss, nor should you!

Best curry house In Windsor town with the topnotch service… served by Inku explains about all the dishes whatever we asked for very satisfyin… knows about what’s she’s serving… and all the allergens all the staffs were very humble and polite. Knows what they were doing… wish we weee close by would love to visit this place again and again

I wanted to share my review in saying how delicious and authentic the dishes were. We were running late from leaving Legoland and they were absolutely fine about it. I highly recommend Gurkha Royale!!

Wonderful Nepalese food. Prayas, our waiter, was very knowledgeable & super helpful. Highly recommended place to visit for lovely food

Prayas was really helpful Guiding us through the menu and the food was absolutely delicious. We would highly recommend a visit to this lovely restaurant

Great food, you can tell there is a proper chef making the dishes and not just using the same sauce bases bought in bulk that other restaurants have seccumbed to. Also very flexible on making dishes vegan. Highly recommended.

Delicious and authentic Nepalese food. One of the best Nepalese restaurant near Windsor castle. I really enjoyed the food. Excellent customer service.

First time from here and certainly not the last . Food delicious , portions generous and delivered piping hot from 15 minutes away . Very good value as well .

This restaurant is brilliant for food, drinks, service and ambiance. I went with my family and friends for dinner. Everyone loved it. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

Fantastic, exceeded our expectations for our first long awaited visit. Quite special in my opinion. We will be back!

What a gem! We needed an early dinner in this area and booked this place at almost no notice for our family of 3 (including 7yo child). The food was so delicious & service so hospitable. Others have mentioned the momo, & I can confirm that they are exactly as they should be! Yum

Very good food, aromatic spices, nice service, preparation time was OK, cozy atmosphere, gladly again.

Finally visited this place, after it being on my list of must visit restaurants for a long time. We were greeted and welcomed nicely and we decided to seat outside, the service was quick, friendly and thoroughly professional. We ordered two portions of momos, cooked in two different ways, they had flavour but the quantity was low (4 pieces) and therefore not value for money. We also had the butter chicken, garlic and coriander naan and chicken fried rice, all of the dishes were delicious and had decent quantity for their prices. It's a nice little restaurant with good quality food and amazing service, keep it up!!!

Very friendly service from every member of staff unbelievable food freshly cooked to my request fast service with a very comfortable atmosphere

Amazing food Atmoshpere Service And music!!

Delicious food - will definitely be returning to try more of the menu and get a momo fix

Great food and really friendly service. The goat curry was excellent. Very reasonable wine in both cost and quality. Definitely going again.

This place is amazing have been 4 time and ever time the food the staff are wonderful and the price is such good value for the high standard of food if you try anywhere in windsor try the gurkha

Delicios food, highly recommended. The goat was a success!

Excellent resto for close to authentic Nepalese cuisine. Love the Choila and GOAT Curry Thali, Momos were OK, bit on the thicker side which I don't prefer. Tried the Nepalese craft beer - not my favourite one I am sorry.

We spend the day in legoland and wanted to go for a nice meal for my son’s birthday, rang probably 30 minutes before coming. They were so lovely to set the table with little birthday signs on the table, even bigger restaurants don’t do this so last minute so that surprised me, thank you again! The food came at a reasonable time, we were offered poppadoms which was nice. Food was lovely, price was very reasonable, kids menu was nice and quality ( not chicken nuggets and chips, thank God!) the lady serving us was lovely and patient with us. Honestly I was very pleased with my visit and would definitely come back if am in the area ! 💖

This restaurant is a must ... brilliant

We were here the first time absolutely blown away by the good. The flavours were spot on, the spice levels were awesome 👌. We love spicy food, and we were not disappointed. Mirjeya was an excellent server, she was attentive and took care of us. We will be back soon!!! Well done team, you have something really special!

Excellent food great atmosphere and the waitresses were very helpful and courteous... we will be back!

Excellent meal with friendly staff. Really great food with good portion sizes. Food was nicely different from the standard. Definitely plan to return soon with a larger group. If friends. Mirjeta our waitress was very attentive and helpful Easy to park. .

A lovely start to our holiday! Overnight in Windsor for an early flight from Heathrow and we were fortunate to stay a short walk from this amazing restaurant… great staff, great food all finished off with a lovely cocktail… highly recommended and worth heading out of the centre to visit!

The best Curry restaurant in Windsor by far. Great food and great service with thanks to Mirjeta and the crew. Well recommended.

One of the nicest curries we’ve ever had. Food was excellent. Staff were all lovely. Couldn’t fault anything at all. Deffo worth a try if you’re in the area

Very pleasant experience. Recommend.

We had a thoroughly enjoyable birthday meal - my twin brother and I, our parents and family. Very nice food and staff. We trued new dishes and would recommend the Himalayas mix - brilliant

Came here for a lovely 30th birthday dinner and the staff made the experience very special. Mirjeta in particular went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. Look forward to being back soon!

Absolutely wonderful 🤩 Turned up having not booked and expecting to have to look elsewhere , but no they found us a table and wow I’m so glad they did , it was superb

Really enjoyed the Himalayan goat curry washed down with a Cobra beer. The goat was very tender. Will definitely be visiting again.

Great place to go for dinner as a group! Highly recommend! Mirjeta was a lovely host and very friendly :) food was great quality with good sized portions.

Delish homecooked food, great service and atmospohere. We went there with a couple of freinds and had a truely delighful evening. I had the goat curry which has a lot of meat in. Had enough left to take home to eat the next day - even better!! Our waitress Mirjeta was brilliant as well as all the staff atcually!

Outstanding food with extraordinary attention to detail. Flavoursome and with a touch of flair so rarely found. Every dish we had was a tour de force. Service too was absolutely superb.

Gr8 food and service, atmosphere was excellent, highly recommend

What a beautiful place, food was gorgeous and so much flavour, staff was super friendly and attentive, and Love the dessert pot we got to keep 😊 . We will definitely be back if visiting Windsor again and would highly recommend to anyone.

As always The Gurkha delivered as expected. We are locals, it was my boyfriends birthday, 6 of us booked. Amazing food, staff are the nicest people not just staff, they are my friends now. So attentive. I come here twice a month as a local. AND as an Indian British Punjabi lady what more can I say! The food is THE BEST INDIAN fusion with Nepalese and abit of Thai. It’s just a gem! If you haven’t been, don’t waste your time in Windsor central with the tourist rubbish. This is the real deal peeps. And the prices are so reasonable you’re not getting robbed. What is there not to like. A LOVE ❤️ this place 🫶

This place is a local for us, and so fortunate to have this place on our doorstep. We have never been dissapointed with the food, service or ambience. In fact, its 5 star all the way. We are a family of four, and ordered a lamb rogan josh, chicken biryiani, chicken jalfrezi, yoghurt, salad and garlic naans. Superb food, and plentiful. I always ask to omit the fresh green chillies, as the food is perfect as is. 10/10!!!!

Dinner on a Friday night, called ahead to make a reservation and got a nice table in the corner. Bahji was exceptional, bhindi marsala seemed a little oily but that might have been my view. My friend had a lamb biryani which was excellent. Kulfhi was a slight disappointment. Service was excellent with Mirjeta being the star. Parking could be difficult on a busy night.

Picked this restaurant up after reading the online reviews. We were not disappointed. On arrival, we were welcomed by Biplav (apologies if spelt incorrectly) who had the table booking sheet immediately to hand. He had a good sense of humour, but not in your face. He just got the engagement perfectly right. The restaurant was buzzing in a nice way, with everyone enjoying their nights out. The menu was extensive and offered lots of well-known dishes and many new ones. We selected a selection of dishes that we had eaten before at other establishments, giving us a good reference point to measure the food quality. We were also offered some suggestions which we embraced. I personally like restaurants where the chefs can see into the restaurant. This gave me a rare chance to talk with Head Chef Lama. What a nice guy. He is very skilled at his craft. All dishes were outstanding, fresh, flavoursome, and beautifully cooked. I concur, one of the best curries I've eaten living now in the area for over 12 years.

Excellent as always. Came for Mothers day. Wonderful team, Wonderful team. Thank you. Atmosphere wonderful. Lovely evening.

Excellent food, really nice attentive staff - the chefs even come through with your food as soon as it’s cooked

Very delicious and nice place to eat. Rogan josh is a favourite .😍 We highly recommend this restaurant. The staff is also very friendly.

First time of visiting after being advised how excellent it was by friends who had dined there. Was not disappointed. It was for an intimate Birthday Dinner for someone very Special. The cuisine was varied and enjoyable. The Staff were so quick with their service....

We were in Windsor for the weekend for my partner's birthday and went to Gurkha Royale for a birthday dinner. It was a busy Saturday evening, the staff were attentive from the start, a warm welcome, excellent food and service (our main server was Mirjeta),...

Normally we go to the restaurant and it’s always amazing, this weekend we ordered take away and again it has been fantastic, very authentic food delivery was on time and piping hot - Great place will definitely return and can highly recommend it ! Thanks

You have to go a long way to have better service and a better meal than the Gurka Royale. Not only is the food wonderful, all of the staff are polite and helpful. Superb food, superb staff, excellent parking and fabulous ambiance. We'll be back.......

Best south Asian food in the area!! Starters, mains, and desserts were amazing. Excellent food and exceptional service from Mirjeta :)

My wife and I booked a table to celebrate our first anniversary. We had a delightful time, the food was great and the staff's attention to detail was fantastic. I'd also like to add that all the staff we interacted with wished us a happy...

The food, service and the whole experience is absolutely fantastic. The staff are great and the all the food is made in house. Very accommodating and highly recommend!

What a fabulous evening! Great food, the most wonderful evening and superb service. The Rogan Josh is definitely worth a revisit. We will be back! Thank you for a lovely evening. :-)

Food and service was outstanding. Dinner was really good, superb flavours and Marieta was lovely and efficient. We had a great evening.

Excellent food and service as always. This is our favourite place. Great value to would highly recommend for families or couples

Yet again I enjoyed a lovely meal at this excellent restaurant. I had the Himalayan Curry for the first time and it was really good. Also the service we received from Susmita and Mirjeta could not have been more friendly.

I visited Gurkha Royal Restaurant in Windsor today with friends. We started with the lamb Sandeko momo, and it was delicious. The restaurant has a very welcoming atmosphere. Our experience at Gurkha Royal was enhanced by Mirjeta, our waitress, who provided excellent service throughout our...

We went to as a group of 15 people for a birthday meal. We booked via phone and not required deposit for it. As we went in, everything was set up and welcomed us. They had poppadum and dips free of charge on the table. I ordered the meat and seafood royale platter, it came out sizzling hot. Also ordered a side of plain rice. The beef choila was tasty but a little dry and the fish cake (salmon) was salty! The chicken and sheesh kebab were nice. It came with grilled onions which was complimenting well. The Himalayan goat curry, had a nice presentation and came out like a thaali style with small dishes. However, rice could have come in a bigger portion. In the past, I have ordered mutton biryani, and was tasty but it felt more like a curried fried rice than a biryani. It came with a complimentary raita. Which was lovely. Ordered, pork sakuwa for starters, enjoyed it but very fatty as it was pork belly bites. Also ordered the creme brûlée, which I loved! The service from staff was good and friendly staff, however we had to remind them of the items they had forgotten to bring to the table. Downside of this place is the difficulty of finding parking. You have to find parking on side roads residential area.

This is our go-to place!! Cannot recommend enough. Great flavours. Friendly staff. Value for money! My wife always experiments with different dishes and is never disappointed. I’m a Korma guy and it’s the best Korma I’ve ever had! Our girls (3 & 6) also love...

I've been three times since moving to the town, so it must be good! I've consistently found vegetarian options I enjoyed and friends and family have liked their food too. The staff are helpful and it's a nice atmosphere. The sort of outdoor area with...

Lovely food and friendly staff.

Incredibly kind staff and fantastic restaurant

Lovely small restaurant with great tasting food. Mixed menu of nepalese and indian food! Good combo of flavours in all the dishes. Highly recommend and would definitely visit again. Great friendly staff who were very attentive to all their customers

I love this restaurant so was so happy to see that I could have it delivered on this frosty evening. Delicious butter chicken. Thank you Gurkha.

Never been to the restaurant but seems good

First class Indian food Excellent

Had to come back after our 1st meal here 2 weeks ago. Fantastic food. Great service from Louise who went the extra mile for a special occasion dinner - thank you Louise for making it special and memorable.

Had a great time, amazing service from our host Mirjeta, incredible food and would 100% recommend. Will be going again for sure

Lovely meal. Only negative point is we weren't asked if we wanted a dessert

Really bad food. Too sweet daal, paneer and everything they makes you confused whether you oder a dessert or an Indian dish. It was my first and last experience there 😅

Food was amazing. The staff were very knowledgeable about the menu and helped us choice something unusual for us to have. We type to select the specialty dishes everywhere we go. Their recommendations were great and suited our taste very well. Staff were so welcoming and friendly. Parking is a bit of an issue, but local roads didnt charge to park there. I just don’t like feeling I’m taking a space from the local houses. However that wasn’t the case here, there was plenty of room.

A friend and I, with whom I go out for a meal and catch-up every month or two, went to the Gurkha Royale last night for a meal, for the third time this year. The food was a good as ever, and the service was wonderful. The “Gurkha’s Revenge” wasn’t as hot as I thought it might be, however it was still delicious, as is every other dish I’ve eaten there, and they’re very reasonably priced. The service is perfect (prompt, friendly), although it’s not included in the bill and I didn’t notice until afterwards so was unable to (deservedly) tip them. If you want to do so, perhaps remember to bring some cash! I’m sure it won’t be long until we find ourselves back here again for another meal. Would definitely recommend.

Absolutely fantastic, curries packed full of flavour, great service and nice place for large groups. The menu has a wide selection. Highly recommended and I think I will make this my regular!

I never write reviews but I am compelled to write one today! From the moment we arrived at this restaurant we were totally spoilt. The food and ambiance was outstanding and the service was impeccable. I would whole heartedly recommend this restaurant to any food lover. I forgot to pick up my coat on leaving and the management kindly offered to post it back to me as we live over 50 miles away! So kind and helpful staff. Very rare find ❤️

Fantastic meal, staff all very friendly & helpful. A wonderful Nepalis experience . Thank You to All.

Popped in here whilst staying at Lego land as we didn't fancy a dry burger and chips, and I'm so glad we did. Food and service was excellent. The korma my 4 year old had was the best I've ever tasted. Can't recommend more.

Showed up 1 and a half hour before closing and they said that the chef had gone home and kitchen closes at 9. Travelled 1 hour for this place due to the great review and thought 1.5 hours before closing would be adequate. Slightly underwhelming.

Food wasn’t great. The paneer Makhani was sweet. It’s not meant to be a sweet dish. The spinach and leek bhaji were oily,soggy and undercooked. The naan was cooked for so long that it became a popadom. Our mains took more than an hour to come. Didn’t want to complain and wait for another hour. Everyone has a dodgy stomach and reflux the same night. I have seen in your other responses to dissatisfied customer. You have mentioned there is a reason why you are number one in the area. To be honest you maybe number one because the competition must be poor, if your restaurant was in Harrow it wouldn’t survive a day against the likes of Everest, Blue Ginger and The Regency Club. Really disappointed. I wouldn’t come back to this restaurant.

The service was excellent and friendly. The food was top quality and excellent value for money.
