Kathmandu Gurkha Restaurant and Bar in North East Derbyshire

Ordered a takeaway for delivery from here expecting it to be a high level standard. After one and a half hours of waiting what came was very poor. All of it was cold, the chips soggy from the condensation of the plastic box they were in. The poppadoms were the only decent thing. Very disappointing as it has been excellent in the past!

Excellent buffet choice and tasty , very attentive staff , excellent value . Best buffet we’ve been to for quite a while, would recommend.

Awful, I called to make an order at 6:30 (for my birthday tea 😭) and it took til 8:40pm for it to arrive. It was cold soggy and horrible, my poor kids waited hours to be very disappointed. Won’t be ordering again.

chicken curry was lacking chicken, no more that 6 pieces and so much sauce. partners madras was more like a vindaloo. quality of the meals has gone down hill and waited way too long for delivery. sad to say I won't be ordering from you again .

Absolutely outstanding experience here on the weekend. All dishes were flavourful, good value and we left very satisfied!

On the multiple times I've been they have improved each time, it really shows they take on board feedback. Fast service and delicious food, what more could you ask for 10/10

Very disappointed, our food was delivered over an hour late after chasing the restaurant a few times, then when it did arrive it was cold.

Always really nice, good quality food and delivery driver was really polite.

So brilliant, this is now an annual event in our Bolsover Rotary calendar. And monthly for individuals too.

I love this place, the food and the people that own it. My only criticism is that when I ask for 4 or 5 fresh green chillies in my home delivered chicken vindaloo there is never any added..Still a 5 star and 10 if I could, just give me my fresh chillies in my vindaloo.

Very quick delivery and very yummy food :)

Always good food from Katmandu. Good service and very pleasant delivery driver, thank you

Went for the all day buffet great choice and the food was excellent Staff was attentive and polite Really good value for money

Food tasted amazing, driver was fab, calling to check where my address was before going too far down the road.

Visited to eat in many, many times and had take out. The food is always delicious and staff very pleasant and helpful.

Love the food here 😋 it's a regular jaunt when I'm in the area. I'll only say avoid Sundays, it's really busy with far too many young children.

Nice owners,curry was busy and very spicy,great service and parking

Wonderful staff and very accommodating.

We visited here after it being recommended by friends and family, they said to go on a Sunday and try the buffet. We visited today and we were very disappointed, the car park is far too small and everyone parked terribly so had to park on a nearby street (which is no fault of the restaurant) We then went inside and were pointed in the direction of a table where we would be seated. The waiter asked if we were having the buffet or normal menu. We said buffet, we then helped our self to the food which there was a poor choice of, we both had chicken pakoras and onion bhajis, poppadom and pickle tray to start, they were all very dry as if they had been out all day! We went back and had some of the bhuna curry which was nice but only one choice of rice and plain naan. After we had finished our meal we went to pay the bill, and were asked if we had had a Long Island iced tea - we had not we had 2 x Pepsis, he then proceeded to charge us for the Long Island and pint of beer that we had not had, we only knew this as we asked for the bill after. They refunded the difference but with no real apology. Overall would not recommended at all Katmandont!

Ordered a takeaway. Best Onion Bhajis I've ever eaten. Big portions that can easily be shared between 2. Won't order as much next time

Great place, food excellent, staff helpful and friendly 👍

Lovely buffet meal had on Sunday. Great price and a great way to try different dishes!

Absolutely awful service from the kathmandu tonight. Placed order, the lady on the phone repeated it back to confirm it…. Then they didn’t bring the entire order, main dish missing. Rang up…. she said I never ordered it in the first place. Made me out to be a liar, and wouldn’t listen to me. Ended up telling her to just forget it, as I was getting nowhere talking to her. Very unhelpful and very patronising. Ready meal is it then instead, as I only ordered curry and salad. Just bought me a salad. Totally would not recommend this place if ordering for home delivery. They take your order, then say you never ordered it. Will not order from here again .

Fabulous food. Excellent service. Will definitely go again.

We ordered the chicken tikka masala and king prawn masala. Both dishes were overly sweet and more curry sauce than meat. We decided to order from this restaurant based on the reviews despite being one of the most expensive. I was really disappointed with the meagre offering of chicken and king prawns for the money. I won’t be recommending this restaurant simply because you just don’t get your money’s worth unless you like overpriced sauce.

Delivery driver rang three times to get help with directions and seemed to be very annoyed with the situation. I actually agreed to drive out and meet him somewhere to help. First and only time we have anything negative to mention.

Best curry we have ever had ordered here 7 times this year it’s better to collect, haven’t eaten in the restaurant yet but it looks clean and lovely staff are lovely.

I went to the restaurant with work friends on the 12th July. Extensive menu lots of choice The food is amazing! Had butter chicken which comes with rice and a massive naan bread. Service excellent Recommend 100%

Fantastic takeaway last weekend, just something a bit different about this place.

Really enjoyed our meal here. Friendly staff. Ate from the Nepalese menu and food was fresh, plentiful and tasty. There was three huge onion bhajis in the portion and they looked home made. Large portions and excellent value for money. Will definitely go again.

Fabulous food perfectly presented. Reasonably priced. Will DEFINITELY visit again when I get chance. Probably one of the best meals I've had. I come from Nottingham but now live near Clay Cross. There is plenty of choice of all sorts of food in Nottingham but not very much where I now live. This is a gem that I'm lucky to have on my doorstep.

Had a dinner on Saturday night with my family. The atmosphere was amazing and the food and the service was second to none. A place never to miss.

Friendly staff and lovely food made this a very enjoyable experience. Good portion sizes and the curries were very tasty. Quite enjoyed the Ghurka beer too. Would definitely return again, maybe on a Sunday to try out the buffet, a great way of trying lots of different dishes!

Brilliant service and food, would definitely recommend it.

Don't waste your money On buffet. Please take option for Vegetarians also Otherwise please mention in menu in buffet because thats nOt fair For Vegetarian.

With friends for a social able meal out, whitsun Saturday bank holiday weekend. Late booking, they fortunately did have room. Staff are ultra friendly although not in your face, if you want another drink you more need to ask that them trying to over sell you them. Food wise, we had been there before and was salivating at what was to come, we wasn't disappointed. On a negative point my Chilli Pork starter was a little on the chewy side but was still very tasty. However my main of Katmandu Kadia was sublime. Its not spicy but boy is it flavorful. Cost for 3 of us, which included 5 drinks, 2 starters and 3 mains was a little over £80, which we thought was excellent value. Be warned it does get busy and obviously some groups can be a little noisy as times. But the food more than makes up for it.

1st time ordering. Really impressed lovely flavours plenty food. Meat was so tender. Will be our go to now lovely delivery man

It’s not been delivered but says it has

Found this cheap and cheerful restaurant for Sunday dinner, as we were too late for elsewhere. Buffet style, that was regularly replished. Very tasty food. Basic table covering, decor but all was fine. Easy for us, as one of us can only eat considerably less than the other one. Parking on site, though it was tight, with tricky manoeuvring, when we got there.

Went with friends for my birthday the food was excellent and the service was too worth at trip. They’ll ask you it you want hot or medium spicy, the hot is hot which I like, and Gluten Free Available.

Outstanding food reasonable prices can't find any fault

Amazing food, fantastic flavours

lovely food,nice and hot,only thing was the Vindaloo wasn't that spicy but that is just personal choice

we ordered some special Kathmandu lamb a chicken sizzler, sag paneer onion bhaji dahl and nan. it was a lot of food, and each was a different spicy tasty taste. nothing was over oily, no residue of oil in the cartons. the best curry locally and far better than many I’ve had elsewhere. i picked it up from the restaurant where I would suggest some ambient lighting would complement the excellent food. ie not bight white but warm white spot lights dimmed and some candle lighting on tables. Overall, a great experience and looking forward to my next visit .

Went just before Christmas without a booking put they got us a table. Everything was excellent including service and the food. Please go to this gem as you won't be disappointed

Absolute class. Food plentiful and tasty. Always comes piping hot as it should. Staff always can't do enough for you. Myself and my wife visit regular

Terrible customer service, after placing our order for delivery we stated no vegetables with the madras and the member of staff repeated it to me to make sure the order was correct. On arrival I could clearly see my madras dish was full of onions etc. when contacting the restaurant the owner/manager called my wife a liar because her chefs told her no onions where out into my dish. My photo clearly shows they are not telling the truth which can be very dangerous for people who have food allergies. After a 10 minute discussion the lady in the phone told us the best they can do is send another dish out alone and we would have to eat the rest either cold or before the replacement arrives. I fully understand mistakes happen but when you pay for something the least a company can do is rectify mishaps and not disrespect customers.

Amazing service. We sometimes have fortnightly orders, foods amazing every time. Portion sizes are decent and the menu is varied and exciting.

First time visit. Enjoyed the meal and service was good. Unfortunately there was a loud table nearby (of course this isn't the fault of restaurant). I look forward to visiting again.

Such delicious food and a good range! Great veggie options. Staff are lovely and so helpful and welcoming. Definitely would recommend.

Sorry but it just isn't value for the price charged The loud rock music in an Indian restaurant is not a good feel The bhaji was solid,crispy onion with no taste The curry was red ,thin sauce,the chicken was not pre cooked in a clay oven,the rice was overcooked The biryani was the same red sauce Very expensive menu prices in relation to other Indian restaurants in north east Derbyshire

Very overcooked chicken with little flavour, naan breads were cold on arrival and the poppadoms were all smashed. Can't fault the delivery time though.....just need to work on the rest of it.

Lovely local restaurant. Very nice all round.

Food was cold, fries were a solid block, had to reheat the whole meal!

As always delicious and best curry in area 😍

Never had an issue before, we've always loved Kathmandhu. Tonight however was really disappointing. Ordered approx 7.15pm, given a delivery time between 8.40-9pm. At 9.40pm, still no food so i complained through Just Eat. An update was sent through with a "slightly" amended time of 10pm! I then requested some money back through the app but havent heard anything on this front. Food arrived around 10.15pm and was stone cold. Not good enough ☹️

Came here with the family for the Sunday buffet, and everything was fantastic, food was fresh, hot and tasty and the staff were really friendly.

Extremely salty and not at all like the wonderful flavours like we're used to. Please fix this

delicious food, we had Sunday buffet. freshly made starters, crisp. pleasant background nepali music, volume appropriate and does not make conversation difficult. First visit, several people have recommended it to me, we will return

We ignored the wait as it was busy and we ignored the dirty serviettes on the chairs as it was busy when the starters came they were superb, we were excited about mains and when they came the Meat was really good tender and marinated but covered in an awful sauce heaving with sugar so sweet I couldn’t eat mine I ordered it hot wouldn’t even class it as mild. we asked to take it home and they put the empty containers on the table with a spoon to do ourselves ? !😂 not good I’m afraid the food is too sweet for me and the service was appalling so I wouldn’t recommend

Always great quality food and lovely staff.

Amazing food and really tasty. The delivery man is always so friendly. When visiting the restaurant the staff are very attentive and helpful especially when choosing which dishes to try. Not sure what to order? Give them a call before and they will help :-)

Spot on as usual. Just a great place to eat

Visited with friends Friday evening 26th January after this place was Recommended to us... pleased to say it did not disappoint. Fabulous Food served had the mixed starter which had the mist succulent and tasty pieces of chicken and lamb. Poppadoms and Pickle Tray. Fabulous poppadoms nor greasy and very Crispy. Main had the chicken shasklik which was cooked to perfection and presented well. Great Service from the staff and a very friendly environment to eat. Many thanks

You wouldn’t get any better service in any restaurant in Chesterfield. Excellent range of dishes that you won’t see in an Indian curry house. Definitely worth a visit

Terrible l. Don't waste your money we ordered a takeaway due to the good reviews. What is wrong with you people? Bahji and samosa were chewy and tasteless served with some weird fluorescent green stuff, obviously full of food colouring. Naan was cold and chewy curry was full of food colouring I've had better out of jars. Expensive poor quality

Delicious food, good delivery, cannot fault it. My mum is 79 and says their poppadoms are the best she's ever tasted :)

We’ve had takeaway from here a few times over the last few months and think it’s worth a review. Every meal we have had has been great. The food is always fresh and so tasty. I love the honey chilli chicken. There’s six of us and never get a meal wrong. 110% recommend for takeaway.

Food was excellent but the room was freezing

food delivered cold. I warmed curry and rice in microwave but chips went in the bin.

This food was cold on delivery then when phoned up wanted to give us credit for next meal didn't want a microwave meal will never order again

Food was good overall but two different chef's special curries, with different descriptions on the menu, came out with exactly the same sauce: maybe this was a mistake? Service was a little slow so we were happy to enjoy the dishes as presented to us, rather than wait longer for a possible replacement.

Fantastic food Had mixed meat starter and garlic chilli chicken for main cannot fault it. Service was first class Can’t wait to go again

Booked this to go for meal with family on new years eve soon as we got there instantly felt like we wasn't wanted got put to our table witch they was 6 of us and they seated us to a 5 seated table with an extra chair felt like we was rushed our food told it would be easier if we choose the buffet witch we wonted to order off the menu it came and it was tasteless the chicken tikka masala tasted just like tomato soup wouldn't recommend

lovely afternoon buffet with very delicious food and lots of choice above expectations for me and will certainly visit again soon

Absolutely abmissmal over an hour late still waiting no one seems to know where the food is

Dont waste your money, I wished I had read thereviews. 1st and last time ever. I can't say anymore as they would all be swear words.

Cold food also missing food , man rang to ask me to pay more for rice which was my mistake I thought it came with a £10 curry he said are you going to pay for rice so abruptly spoken too , not what you expect then they forget my Bombay potatoes I ring them they say no worries sorry we will send them back down I ask how long 30 minutes guess what an hour and half later still no potatoes and also on top of all this the food was cold !! £30 well spent !!! They never learn basic customer service!!!

One of the best restaurant.food was amazing we really enjoyed.thank you.

A group of us met up for dinner and a chat, the interior was bright and clean, the staff were attentive, the food was great, full of flavour, well presented, vibrant, hot and, served in a timely manner. It was my first time here, but I will be back! We have been back, and it was even better! Looking forward to my next visit

Always love the food here. Welcoming staff when we collected and only a short wait on a very very busy day. Thank you and Merry Christmas to your team!

Food was lovely and although a bit late they were apologetic and gave us an extra naan and rice. Will definitely use again. Thank you.

Beautiful food and arrived quicker than stated. Thank you!

First time ordering here and we will be back! Food tastes gorgeous and even our 18mnth baby loved it. Spice levels accurate to what you actually choose. Delicious :)

Went for the first time around 3 months ago & been back just about every week since. First class food. Lovely service.

Takeaway delivery service is completely unacceptable. Don't use for delivery. Well do but only if you are willing to wait for a few HOURS when you are only 2 miles away

Had dinner at the Kathmandu Gurkha with a group of people celebrating a Friend's Birthday. Very friendly and accommodating Service complimented by wonderful Food. I am not able to recount what everyone had as their meals , but my Wife and I certainly loved our menu choices. Had Drinks and Papadoms followed by a Starter of Chicken Momo and Vegetable Momo. Superb Starter. Best Momo's that I have had in years. My Wife had a Sea Bass Fillet for Main and I had a Spicy Nepalese Chicken Dish with Egg Fried Rice and Tarka Dal. Food was tasty and well-presented. Portions were very good. Everyone enjoyed a lovely evening that was topped of with a very nice Birthday Cake for our Friend. My first visit to this Restaurant and I hope that a return will be made in due course. To be highly recommended.

Lovely food and good portion size . Will definitely order again :)

I really loved the food at this restaurant. It was my first ever visit. Good selection of curries. It was nice and quiet and friendly atmosphere.

Part of order missing and wrong dish delivered, lamb instead of chicken!!

Great food. A little late but well worth the wait. Great flavour and portions.

The food was perfect as usual and the driver was friendly

The food was delicious and there was great big pieces of meat unlike a few of the others,it is also great value for money, I would definitely recommend and I will definitely be buying from them again,The driver was also very friendly and helpful

This has become our go too takeaway, the food is always piping hot and delicious and well priced too. Very friendly and helpful staff, thank you 🙏

I had probably the best Indian meal I’ve ever had. The food was superb and plenty of it. Wish it was my local as I’d be in there every week!

Worst experience ever ordered through urban eats pre order for 7.30pm to 8pm delivery 9pm still no food this is twice now will not order again or recommend this restrant at all

GR8 Food, delivered on time and ready to eat - FAB

food is delicious, but very disappointed food arrived stone cold

We've eaten here several times and the food has been top notch every time.👌🏻 Last time we were here with some friends who were eating dairy free and they accommodate us without a problem.

Excellent food, would highly recommend.
