Gurkhas inn nepales & Indian cuisine in Torbay

Amazing food and amazing people - made to feel like family and looked after in every way. Simply the best naan bread ever.

We ordered 2 x chicken korma and 2 tikka masala 2x garlic nannas and rice for my Daughter’s birthday, the food was nice and hot and very tasty, the staff were very friendly and even gave me a beer on the house, Mr Kirk gives 5 Stars

Best Indian/Nepalese in Town!!! Fresh and tasty food & really friendly staff and service. My Brother said the chicken dansak was fantastic. Will be back again for sure. Thank you Gurkha's Inn.

Once again a truly wonderful night staff friendly and helpful.Great selection on the menu and we had an excellent meal cooked to perfection and potion sizes were just right enough without being over the top. Can't recommend this curry house highly enough worth trying when in Torquay 👌👍😄😄😄

Had a takeaway. Food was incredible! The best Indian we've had in a long time! Staff friendly and driver came quick so good was hot. Will definitely be our local Indian takeaway from now! 😊

Amazing food, fabulous service and a great price. Would highly recommend and return again. The Kathmandu chicken was outstanding. 😃

Super friendly service from Shyam as always, the Momo were simply irresistible as were the duck breast and two curried paneer dishes. Our third visit and will definitely be returning. Possibly the Best Nepalese/ Indian in Torquay.

Gurkha's Inn is a relatively humbly decorated restaurant in Torquay, but don't let that fool you. The food is spectacular. I had the Nepalese Gurkha vegetarian platter to start and the Gurkha village dinner for main. You can really taste the freshness of the ingredients, and all the spices sing together. It reminded me of my time trekking in Nepal, and the chef took time to speak with me about his mother country. Great service, terrific food. Namaste!

Good food would recommend this place would go there again a lot on the menu and the drink selection was good as well

Delivery. Arrived 1 3/4 hrs after ordering and an hour later than promised after a phone call to ask where it was. We were staying 1 mile from the restaurant. Food was luke warm and average 😞

went there for couple of days during our stay in Torquay. Really nice cooked Nepalese food options. Quiet as its slightly away from high street but great service and food

Went here at 10pm on a Sunday evening and it looked as if they were closing up. However they kindly seated me and I enjoyed a lovely biryani. Hospitable service, authentic Nepalese cuisine just ignore the flock wallpaper

We arranged to meet friends for a curry and they suggested that we go to Gurkha’s as they had heard it was good. WOW! Amazing curries with a fantastic service, we were made to feel so welcome and food was amazing! This place is off the Main Street making it’s prices extremely reasonable. We will definitely return, and we will definitely be recommending the restaurant to our friends.

Make sure you have an appetite when you go, top quality food and plenty of it, we had the middle option set menu for 2 (would probably be too much for 3) couldn’t finish anywhere near half of what was provided, good selection of well presented excellent quality starters mains and sides, popadoms and dips, I had a Nepalese beer, my wife a coke, extremely good value £40 plus a tip, the lady serving us was fantastic patient and helpful, we highly recommend this restaurant

Fantastic food, well prepared and very tasty. Good price too. Decor in need of a little updating, but the meal itself was great. 2nd visit, 2nd successful meal.

Great food. Best I’ve had in some time. Momos in particular were incredible. Service excellent. Attentive and friendly.

This was by far the best Nepalese food I've had. The menu has heaps of your classic Nepalese and Indian dishes, which I'm sire are excellent, but there were some interesting thing I'd never seen before so I ended up getting a selection of smaller...

Lovely food and lovely people. Would go again when I’m in town. The food was hot and plenty of it. Definitely worth a visit

Great tasting food, we had the set meal which was amazing value for money. Will definitely visit again. Very good customer service.

This is the second time we have come to this restaurant while visiting Torquay, highly recommended. Very polite and friendly staff, food served quickly and was very hot and delicious. Good portion size and reasonable prices. Lots of meat In our dishes and restaurant was...

We visited here on the Sunday evening of the Coronation weekend, and only ended up here after after poor service in a local Indian restaurant. As a stroke of luck this far exceeded our expectations. High quality food, friendly staff & competitive prices. Will definitely...

Simple nepalese restaurant with good polite service. The onion bhajis and seek kebabs were very good. Mains of chicken balti had lots of succulent chicken and just spiced enough with pilau rice. Saag & prawn curry with ginger very tasty. One criticism they don’t have...

We booked as a group of 33 walking friends and filled the restaurant. The food was delicious and the staff were so friendly. A really great little restaurant with genuine people and food!

Very helpful staff , good prices & really excellent food . This is not a fancy Indian restaurant near the marina but does it make up for that with serving the best Indian food in Torquay.

Fantastic meal, the food was amazing. It was my birthday and they brought a cake out and a fresh flower garland. They made it a very special day. Thank you so much. Will definitely be visiting again.

Very cold restaurant, onion Bhaji was burnt and both curry’s were overloaded with big chunks of ginger. Service was poor. Unfortunately we will not return.

We are staying on the same road as this restaurant so thought we would give it a try. We ordered the (spicy) set meal for 2... (£35) This included 4 poppadoms, 2 starters, 2 mains, 2 sides & 2 naans...the food was gorgeous !!, full...

Awful ! We have had many good deliveries but today's was bad. Late food , ordered at 430pm. Read at 530pm for delivery at around 630pm. Arrived eventually at 710pm I had to go out and find the driver ! Cold food and over cooked...

Thanks for a great meal in your lovely restaurant, went there with some old friends who thoroughly enjoyed their meal also, service was very efficient & staff very friendly, will definitely eat here again, would totally recommend. M J & Friends.

Enjoyed an evening in this hidden gem. Food well cooked and beautifully presented. Charming service. Starters of himalayan yak roll and chicken momo dumplings. Mains of everest lamb (spicy hot) and gurkhali chicken with nan breads and rice. Recommend this cuisine rather than more common...

Another takeaway. Friendly and enthusiastic crew. Reasonable prices. Food absolutely delicious. The heavenly Chicken Chilli Dry fried (hot), complemented with the divine Peas Masala (mild) and excellent Nepalese Special Fried Rice. Complimentary pappadums and chutney. 🇬🇧🇳🇿

When visiting Devon, we ordered from the Gurkha Inn Torquay for the first time. The food arrived within the hour and the delivery driver was really friendly and the food arrived hot. We ordered the Chicken Everest, Chicken Gurkhali, and Chicken Dopiaza. The chicken was...

We placed an online order. After an hour, we called to ask how much longer it would be. They said it was on the way with the driver. After 20 minutes, still no food. We called again. All we got from the person on the...

Half an hour later than estimated delivery. Phoned twice to chase up the order with the take away just giving us a blunt ‘sorry’. The driver couldn’t find us so I had to go out into the street to flag down my order. Sent us...

Excellent! Great menu choices The food was delicious. Restaurant spotlessly clean The service was faultless Highly recommend

Nice staff, excellent food, quite close to other people whilst eating, slower service than other places but great place to eat for a tasty Indian!

Previously disappointed but decided to give them another go. Takeaway. My favourite, chicken chilli dry fry number 23. Excellent. Extra hot. Hit the spot. Definitely back on my to go list. Efficient and courteous.🇬🇧🇳🇿

Food wasn't up to much Wifes biryani came out on a plate the same shape as the container it was microwaved in My meal was very disappointing bland and not exactly generous portions Only gave 3 stars because staff were very welcoming 🙏

Amazing menu and delicious food. Our first order from here and certainly won't be our last. Cannot wait to book here again.

We like Indian and Nepalese food but are not usually massive fans. However, we had a wonderful meal during our recent visit. The food was very tasty and plentiful. The service was very good. We were not particularly adventurous with our choice of curries, but...

i give 3 star as their service its a bit down at the mom, food was lovely as always but they do really need more staff

We have tried many Indian cuisine, but the food from this Restaurant/Takeaway is absolutely brilliant we have never had any concerns, the food is nice and plenty full please keep it up.

Thought this would be a bit different from the usual curry house - but, it’s not .Perhaps it was my ignorance and there. Is little difference between Indian and Nepalese curries ? My husband had goat which he said was tough - perhaps it had...

WOW! Have never tried this restaurant before but after having seen the Menu we decided to give it a go and order online. Absolutely beautiful! The best Indian takeaway I've had in such a long time. The Curries were to die for. Will definitely be...

Friendly staff and a clean organized restaurant, followed by a absolutely delicious food for a very good price, highly recommend giving it try if you are in Torquay

I along with my wife had a dinner in this Gurkha restaurant. As soon as we entered the restaurant we were greeted and asked how can they help. We asked about kind of food we liked and straight away they recommended a few suit to...

Entered the place but nobody there - does that tell you something? Was asked if I had a reservation? Ordered a meat Tali which wasnt good - smelt better tahn tasted! Was served on prison like plates not the individual little bowls it usually comes...

Fairly average curry house, a little disappointing for me as virtually all of the Nepalese Indian restaurants I have visited in the past have mainly been well above average. Food was ok no more, service slower than I would have liked, as the place wasn’t...

Me and my friends had a great time at your restaurant. The staff were very friendly and committed to great service. The food arrived on time and it was honestly one of the best food I have had in a while. 10/10 would defo visit...

Recently visited with my family for a birthday dinner, the food was superb and the service was even better. Will surely be back again soon.

My wife and i visited Gurkhas inn as we were on holiday in Torquay. Pre booked, Nice welcome and decor, Restaurant was quiet to got served quickly and food came quickly too, Food was very good , well done to all

Had been there for a family holiday, never had such a bad experience, food is very worst only for name its nepali resturant the food is no where near to it. Hospitality is zero. The resturant manager is very rude. I would give a big...

Overpriced for the quality of food served. Curry was watery and all tasted the same. Momos were not better. A horrible corny attempt at combining Nepali momo and Cornish pastry which left a foul after taste. The poor food combined with a confrontational and rude...

One of the worst restaurant I have ever been. They claim to be authentic nepalese restaurant but their food can't be anywhere near it. When you eat at a restaurant it's not only food you pay for but service too. The service was poor and...

The locality and the internal decoration are not attractive but service, food quality and variety and value all excellent. Would go again.

Delivery awful. Waited 1 hour 40 On a deliveroo <1 hour. Not Impressed. Multiple Calls to restaurant.

We ordered a delivery, all tikka, tandoori and naan breads. So essentially what would usually be ‘dry’ food, it all came in loads on liquid and onions, more like a curry than anything that had been in a tandoor oven. It all went straight in...

Ate here as couldn’t get a table at a restaurant we’d been recommended, how lucky were we! Food was so tasty, loved everything about it, try it, hopefully you won’t be disappointed.

We had seen mostly good reviews of this restaurant and it didn't disappoint. There are traditional curry dishes but we steered toward the Nepalese options to experience something new; the food was tasty and service friendly & prompt.

Booked for 7 pm - no other customers so a bit dubious but we needn’t have been, the service and food were fantastic best Indian/Nepalese we have ever had.

This little restaurant is a real gem, tucked away but well worth the visit, food was delicious and the staff were very attentive, We had the set meal for 2, there was loads and everything was seerved brilliantly, will definately be returning when we go...

Just ok to be honest. We love Nepalese food and when planning our trip to Torquay the reviews of this restaurant looked good but in all honesty it was a bit of a disappointment. The area it’s in isn’t great, the restaurant is quite tired,...

We booked in to this beautiful Nepalese restaurant and were not disappointed the food was some of the best I have ever had, the service was quick and the food excellent.

This place is sadly so hit and miss. Getting a curry isn't a cheap take away and lift is too short for a bad curry. The meat varies from tough to suclant, don't give me a free poppadom if it's stale that's just offensive. Especially...

We booked this restaurant on a visit to Torquay this weekend. There was a huge choice of dishes and I chose a traditional Nepalese vegetarian meal. The portions were extremely generous and the food was delicious. The staff were all very polite and friendly. Would...

Booked online last minute and so glad we did. The restaurant is located in a quieter, seemingly residential area. Once inside, the atmosphere was lovely: mood lighting and gentle music and very friendly hosts. There were plenty of the standard Indian food expectations ordered by...

Had the most amazing takeaway with the family. Great service, great menu and wonderful food. Highly recommend this restaurant. It is just a bit out of the ordinary being Nepalese rather than the more prevalent Indian.

Rated no 1 on trip..... Must be dodgy were from the black Country so we no our way round a curry. Maybe we're spoilt we're we are from.. Go to the wetherspoons on the Thursday more authentic....

Really delicious takeaway. Really pleased to find somewhere decent in Torquay. Food was tasty, hot and the vegan menu was excellent.

We tried this takeaway for the first time. From the telephone order to our collection found the service to be extremely polite and professional. Our food was amazing, lovely and hot and very flavoursome. We loved the different tastes throughout and the lamb and chicken...

Superb Nepalese/Indian cuisine. Highly recommend a visit and we definitely will be returning. Ordered a takeaway for NYE and it was absolutely delicious.

Staying in Torquay for the week, we chose this place for our first night as we fancied a curry and this place looked quite inviting, if quiet. It’s a Nepalese/Gurkha restaurant, but also does the usual range of curries and breads etc that you’d find...

Found this restaurant a shortish walk from our hotel. They had only just re-opened after being closed due to the COVID nonsense, staff very friendly and prompt service, would have been 5 star however thought the prices were a bit top end, food was good...

Often come here for a takeaway and rate 5. What was #38 chicken chilli dry fry hot now #23 in revamped menu. Not up to the usual standard I'm afraid. Chicken over cooked and not especially spicy hot as I asked for extra hot. Certainly...

They provided an excellent service taking into account our dietary requirements. Careful in every little thing, doen to use of knife for things that we did not eat. Food was very tasty and fresh.

This restaurant was very quiet, there was only one other table occupied when we arrived but the food was excellent and upon talking to the owner later he advised that they were generally keeping fairly busy which was good to hear in the current circumstances. Staff were very friendly and food was delicious would definitely recommend.

visited tonight and was very impressed with the standard of food, excellent value for money, very clean and welcoming staff. It is a little bit out of the main town but definitely worth the walk!

Went here on a Sunday night as just a short walk from where we were staying, hadn’t booked and really didn’t need to as just us two and 1 other chap in there, I guess we are out of season, the restaurant is a little way out of the main town and this whole COVID year hasn’t helped. Having said that we got a very warm welcome by a very sweet lady who looked after us and obviously the service was great. Not the best curry we’ve had but it was definitely fine with no complaints, husband finally got to try a goat curry so he was happy. Keep this cute little restaurant going and go pay them a visit if you are in Torquay!

Very tasty food but we felt that they could have done more with regard to social distancing ... the tables were very close together but saying that every table was cleaned after each customer!

Went on the last day of our holiday and we weren’t disappointed! Beautiful fresh and tasty food. Great price and lovely friendly waitress. This restaurant I understand has just changed hands, and we wish them well. Will definitely visit next time we come!

Nice food wish we could dine-in.. due to COVID 19!dine in was not possible.. got a takeaway .. nice price .. good food taste good, friendly people .. recommended ..

We fancied an Indian takeaway for a change and found this place with great reviews in Torquay. We ordered online before opening time and opted for delivery which was an extra £1.00The order was for delivery between 7pm amd 7.20pm The order arrived piping hot and at 7pm which was fantastic.The food was excellent, tasty, flavoursome and we would not hesitate to order again.

Was on holiday in Torquay, looking for an indian meal, found this restaurant on TA. Read the reviews, was content to try it. Walked a good way, up and down the hills of Torquay, to get there from our hotel, only to find out its closed for eating in, only open for take away.Got to restaurant doors, stood there for 5 mins, no one came out- obviously didn't want the take away order either.Very disappointed. Like other restaurants in the area, the restaurant needs to make it clear to possible customers that it's not open for dining in and inform people of the restaurant status as take away only.Hopefully this review will prevent anyone wasting time and energy getting there.On another note, theres a kebab shop couple doors down that we went and spent our hard earned cash in, was very tasty and enjoyable- although not the sit down meal we were expecting.Shame, wont try again.

5 stars for the food. So pleased you have restarted your takeaway service post lockdown. Can't understand why business was shut for takeaway during lockdown. An opportunity lost surely and when I tried to place an order during lockdown the answer phone message was not updated and nothing on the website so 2 star poor for business management.

We couldn't see a menu displayed in the window and the restuarant was quiet, but we're so glad we went in. The lady who served us was very friendly and professional and happy to answer questions on the menu items.Presentation of the dishes we'd chosen was faultless and everthing was cooked perfectly. One of the best Indian meals we've ever had and we'll visit again next time we're in the area.

I took some business colleagues that were here from London for a meal at Ghurkas Inn just down the road from my office in Abbey road Torquay.. Wow,had the best Nepalese meal of our lives. Fantastic, thank you Sharma.

We visit this restaurant every time we go to Torquay, so as it was my birthday on Friday 24th January we went again. We were the only ones there, we had an excellent meal as always, and the lady recognised us and made us really welcome. Would thoroughly recommend.

Rang up, gave a price, delivery on time. The food was outstanding, been in Torquay 12 years and decided we needed a change, the food from this restaurant is mind blowing, and will deffo order again, thanks, have changed our takeaway from another in TQ.

Ordered takeaway from Gurkhas inn tonight, 3.12.20, food arrived promptly and was piping hot. My gf really enjoyed the chicken dopiaza. I tried the Gurkhas special which although advertised as hot I found to be of a medium heat and just right. Lovely food and prompt delivery. 2 well fed happy curry lovers. Well done guys

asked for the dishes to have no dairy and they were very nice and made all the dishes dairy free. The dhal is very good

We had a pleasant welcome and excellent meal here. Staff were unobtrusive and the food delicious. Enjoy!

Lots of choice. Freshly cooked with good portion sizes. Always go the extra mile with service whether in house or delivery.

One of our favourite for Asian takeaway. Delicious Gurkha options, number 38 if you love hot and spicy. Packed with flavour and ask for it hotter if that's your thing. Lovely lady at the counter who knows what I want on arrival usually after the local cinema. Not very atmospheric if you eat in. Pictures of Her Maj and Joanna Lumley on the wall. Naturally.

Nothing to write home about, average curry house. Went cos of the good reviews. 8pm weds empty cent for us. Food ok, milder than we expected hvg both ordered medium curry’s. Shy service. Rubbish house wine. Am sure there’s somewhere better.

Fancied a curry and found this place via TripAdvisor. Lady who served us was very friendly. Food was superb and I can easily say one of the best curries I've ever had. Next time we are in Torquay we will not hesitate to go here again A+++++

Our first visit to Gurkhas Inn. The service was excellent, attentive but not overbearing. The food was wonderful. Usual starters onion bhajis, samosas, popadoms, etc. and for mains we had chicken tikka, masala and jalfrezi along with rice, naan etc. Nice range of drinks including Cobra beer (which is essential). I just wished we lived nearer because it was one of the best curry's we've had. The restaurant can probably seat about 50 people and you get glimpses of the kitchen. Just seems like a genuine eatery where you can take your time.

Absolutely sensational food! The reviews are correct they are quiet inside but the delivery service is non stop! We found the price average it was £26 per person with starter main and drinks. One person serving so it’s a little slow but we weren’t in a hurry and it was well worth the wait. It’s a great opportunity to try Nepalese cuisine and traditional Indian at the same time. Well worth seeking out!

Visited here during our holiday. We found it on TripAdvisor and as we walked in got worried we had got the wrong place. Often highly rated gems off the beaten track are usually busy.....we were the only people in there.

Visited on my partners birthday was such a lovely meal good service would definitely recommend Bali highly recommended

Excellent food. Love the restaurants decor. Real loveable place. Staff friendly. Been here many times.
