Kathmandu Palace in Tonbridge and Malling

I recently dined at Kathmandu Restaurant for the fourth time, and once again, it was a marvellous experience. The food consistently impresses with its rich flavors and authentic Nepalese dishes. The atmosphere is welcoming, making it perfect for both casual meals and special occasions. The service is attentive and friendly, adding to the overall enjoyment of the meal. Highlights from our visit included the succulent Chicken Tikka Biryani and flavorful curries, which were cooked to perfection. Each dish was not only delicious but also beautifully presented. I highly recommend Kathmandu Restaurant for anyone looking to indulge in fantastic food in a delightful setting. I can’t wait for my next visit! Great food. Great service. My fourth time here with the family and it won’t be our last.

Fantastic meal. Lovely food, polite staff. Really tasty. Service charge is added to the bill

A great place to have dinner with friends and family! The ambience is warm and inviting, and the food is served hot and tastes just like home. They offer a variety of Indian and Nepalese cuisine, and everything we tried was delicious. It's a must-try restaurant for Indian people looking to enjoy authentic flavors. Highly recommend!

GREAT FOOD AND SERVICE. ANUP WAS BRILLIANT GUIDING ME THROUGH THE MENU

Lovely food , nice atmosphere, nice staff

Lovely food, enjoy it everytime

First time at this restaurant and the best Indian I have been to, will be back if working in this area again.

Very good food and staff very pleasant !!

Superb food! The Nepalese menu was much better than a standard Indian and the service was outstanding - not overbearing but very polite and attentive. Excellent place - really recommend!!

Very enjoyable experience. This was our forth visit and we will be back again and again. The food is excellent and well presented with good size portions. The staff are so polite and helpful. We are so pleased we've got a restaurant as good as this on our doorstep. I would highly recommend a visit and be sure to book as it's very popular. The restaurant has a large car park.

Excellent food, highly recommended, great friendly staff, we have visited many times.

Lovely meal inside restaurant and for takeaway. Highly recommend!

Always excellent service and food truly authentic cooking highly recommend excellent vegetarian options too

Food and service is brilliant, can’t ask for anything more. Thank you

Fantastic restaurant, great atmosphere & superb food always such great quality

Best curry for miles. Nepalese dishes are out of this world.

Absolutely stunning food. Even MORE so just recently with the way the naan bread is served in the takeaway optio, as absolutely beautiful VERY fresh breads with a coating of lovely ghee. Highly recommended from a seasoned takeawayer!

Lovely service as always, food is great

I have been coming here for 5 years and they don’t disappoint. The best indian in the area. Best service, 10/10 food. I couldn’t recommend it enough.

Fantastic meal. Booked for birthday and staff went over and above to make it special.

I have visited this restaurant last night with my family and friends the restaurant was awesome with the great variety of foods with and the atmosphere over there was fabulous. I recommend everyone to visit this place once

I got the plenty of options for the food and the taste was awesome. Staff were friendly and the service was amazing. I like the place and the ambiance.

Wow … food was amazing been there so many times can’t complain anything always great atmosphere. With super great food.

Eaten here a few times as well as having take away. Food has always been great!

This is one of my favourite places.especially If you want to get romantic.but the food and customer service is great.highly recommended.

I went for a big 30+ family gathering, and the staff handled it very professionally. the food was delicious!!

We went to celebrate my in law's birthday, the staff really looked after us and brought a (shop bought) birthday cake out with sparklers. The Sunday Thali is really nice and they made me a vegetarian version.

This is our local curry house. All the waiters and waitresses are extremely polite and friendly. Restaurant has recently be refurbished and so clean and fresh. Food is amazing and plenty of choice with monthly specials which are always worth a try. Definitely is worth booking at the weekend, though they always try to accommodate walk ins.

Great place with customised food and most courteous service

Disappointing! Birthday meal for mother and daughter. Ive been to this restaurant before and enjoyed the experience but I won’t be going back after my visit yesterday. The culmination of the evening was to be charged full price when I had indicated we would like to be part of the Tuesday Special Offer. Upon raising the matter when the big bill arrived, I was told we didn’t comply with the criteria. We had mushroom rice not boiled rice, a prawn dish not a chicken or lamb dish, a Peshawar nam not a regular one etc etc. I was told it was all written down but on my menu even with my glasses I could not read the micro description. It was reduced in size to fit the menu and I doubt a person with 20/20 vision could see it clearly. No one thought to mention any items that didn’t match the offer at the point of order! Ive been to other restaurants where everything is crystal clear, easy to read with guidance and supplements available on their Special menu night. Having made me feel wrong to mention it the bill was calculated and I had been overcharged. Did we look like we wouldn’t mention it? Probably! There was a faint bleachy type smell underlying the food….maybe from washing up process. Plates and cutlery were very clean though! Home brew beer not great to me and not much cheaper than top brands. Glass of wine reasonably priced. We were the last 2 people at the restaurant having arrived at 9pm. The atmosphere during our last 15/20 minutes was that the staff wanted to shut up shop although they did ask if we wanted desert. I can’t blame them for wanting to close some looked like they had school in the morning. The staff were good aside from the discussion around the bill. Ive had far better food elsewhere but my daughter likes the spice level here. After this experience I’ll be going back to my regular haunt. A shame.

If it was socially acceptable to lick the plate clean I would. Best meal I’ve had in a long time!

Delicious food, plenty of vegetarian options, very reasonable price, clean, efficient, friendly staff.

Being objective as reviews should be. -tables are all too close together, ruins the atmosphere, very loud and could barely hear the others on my table. - not really child friendly due to close proximity and also noise. - food was presented nicely, but underwhelming and bland in comparison to other Nepali food places around. - portion sizes were generous - staff were very friendly and tentative, good service - priced reasonably. I would return again, maybe not on a Saturday night when really busy.

Ordered a take away waited ages for it to arrive when it did it was luke warm the chicken tika was the worst ive ever had, looked like thigh meat which I hate and didnt taste good. It didnt come with salad and ive never had tikka without salad coming with it. The Aloo Gobi was very average. Wouldnt use again as not cheap and very sub standdard.

Another fantastic meal. My go-to for an authentic tasting food. Love the naga curry, naan and poppadoms are great. As are all the sides. Totally recommend.

Very tasty food, friendly staff. Highly recommend

Had one of the best chicken chilli as I was looking for Nepali restaurants around the area. Momo was equally good. Staffs were attentive. Service was reasonably on time. Will be back when around highly recommended.

Went there for lunch with friends to celebrate a 50th birthday. As soon as the staff realised our reason for being there, they moved us to a specially decorated birthday corner for not a penny more!! The atmosphere was perfect and the food extremely delicious. To cap it all at the end, they brought out a birthday cake with sparklers!! I thought I would be charged for this but nope - all thrown in for free!! If you want a nice place to have a meal, look no further.

Friday night, didn’t book but got a table…. The staff are really nice and courteous, can’t fault them. The menu is typically Indian but with loads of Gurkha food as well. I have tried a few meals here and they are always made to a very good standard and delicious. The servings are big as well. Can’t fault the place, well worth a visit.

Recommend by a friend, Service was brilliant, the staff are extremely friendly and polite. Food was lovely and had a great experience.

Extremely friendly staff and great service.

The worst place ever, 2 plus hours for delivery. Don't bother. ordered again to give another chance.....dont bother...

Kathmandu Palace truly deserves every single one of these five stars and more! From the moment I stepped foot inside, I was greeted with warmth and hospitality that exceeded my expectations. First and foremost, I must commend the excellent and friendly staff at Kathmandu Palace. Their attentiveness and genuine care for their customers made my dining experience truly memorable. Whether it was recommending dishes or ensuring that we had everything we needed, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Now, let's talk about the food. Oh my goodness, where do I even begin? The food at Kathmandu Palace is nothing short of spectacular. Each dish was bursting with flavor and expertly prepared. From the fragrant spices to the perfect balance of textures, every bite was a culinary delight. Whether you're a fan of traditional Indian cuisine or looking to try something new, Kathmandu Palace has something for everyone. In addition to the incredible food and top-notch service, the ambiance of the restaurant is cozy and inviting. It's the perfect place to gather with friends and family for a delicious meal and memorable experience. If you're in search of authentic Indian cuisine served with a side of hospitality, look no further than Kathmandu Palace. I can't wait to return and indulge in more of their mouthwatering dishes. Thank you to the entire team at Kathmandu Palace for an unforgettable dining experience!

We arrived for what we thought would be another nice meal but was very disappointed.after waiting over an hour and 5 tables which turned up after us got there meal before us,we asked where our meal was only to be told it was lost in the system and would be with us soon.when it arrived both curry’s were very bland the tikka masala was like tomato soup which my wife couldn’t eat and the jalfrezi was very bland and like blitzed tomato sauce with no heat didn’t resemble a jalfreze at all.The mushroom rice had little to no mushroom in it the keema rice had just a trace of meat and the mushroom Bhaji was cold. We left most of the meal and won’t be returning any time soon.

We usually get a take away and we collect, we always get offered a small drink while waiting and complementary papadoms and chutneys. We been there for dine in last week and again the service was very good and the food was excellent (One of the best) definitely worth trying this for great Indian and Nepalese food specially. The Nepalese food where there was not much oil and fat and all the meat were cooked well and tender. One thing I like the most is the service they provide and look after every customers even when they are very busy. Thank you guys see you soon again as you have won our hearts.

So very disappointed with this place for Takeaway, we ordered a lovely dinner from them on Christmas Eve and the order was perfect, we did the same again for New Years Eve and knowing how busy they were likely to be on New Years Eve I placed the order at 2pm asking to collect it at 6.30pm. We ordered £102 worth of food – all from the starter menu as we wanted to buffet style dinner back home with lots of Chicken and Lamb Tikka, Momo’s, Bhaji’s, Samosa, Chilli Chicken etc. I arrived to collect my meal at 6.25pm and the food was ready for me straight away, I thought that was good but when they passed it to me from an insulated bag that was wide open I was a bit worried. I live 5 mins away by car and took the food home and it was all stone cold, I tried to call but nobody answered – as it was New Years Eve and they were quite busy and we wanted to get on with our evening we decided to try and warm up some of the food in the oven to take the chill off it at least. Sadly trying to warm it up wasn’t the best idea, heating the chicken up just made it overcooked and we had to throw most of the food away as it went rubbery. We also ordered some popadoms 2 x plain and 2 x spicy – they were all broken up inside the paper bag – and there only appeared to be part of one spicy one, not enough crumbs to make a whole one! As I couldn’t get through on the phone, I sent an email to ask for assistance, I chased the restaurant up for a reply on 2nd of Jan and got a reply to say they were busy and only now investigating it, I then got a further reply on 4th Jan where the manager advised he checked with his packer (who must have a great memory and can remember all the orders they must have dealt with on New Years Eve) to tell me the following, “Thank you for raising your complaints about our food/service. I’m sorry you are not satisfied with the food standard on New Year’s Eve. I have now taken over from my junior colleague. I have checked this with the packer. He said everything was packed hot. About the papadam’s I see you have ordered 1 plain and 1 spicy papadom. According to my investigation and interviewing our packer he said everything was packed nice and hot. Papadom’s may have get crushed as your order bag was full.” I was also offered £15 credit as a gesture of good will. We’ve used the take away and restaurant regularly, even going to their relaunch party in 2023 and hoped we could have relied on them to have looked at this more sympathetically – but a £15 credit is quite insulting, we spent £130 the week before and £102 on New Years Eve, so would have hoped they classed us as good customers! I did reply to their response to let them know we were disappointed with their investigation and as of the 8th Jan still not heard back from them. Sadly we will not be going back to them as a result of this issue. You are probably looked after better if you eat in the restaurant, but don’t stand a chance if you have a take away as they don’t seem that bothered once they have your money. Shame, this was a nice place to visit.

I ordered a takeaway Indian and the staff are very friendly and the food is delicious and served in a relatively quick time. Would recommend

Never been before, due to last minute changes where we was supposed to be found this gem. Food was great, staff were very welcoming. Highly recommended. Would definitely revisit if in the area

Ordered a takeaway; quick service. Some very nice dishes a bit different from the normal Indian/Bangladeshi fare. Everest Chicken, Timur Piro Lamb and Zimbu Dall are all worth trying.

I have been here twice, both times the food has been excellent..

Great atmosphere, and tasty food with good portions and very nice servers, what more can you ask

Food was good service poor came to take our order but we had not seen a menu our large group had booked 20 places but only 17 were laid out. Very noisy evening.

Very nice meal great service and a good atmosphere

Worst tikka masala I've ever had Tastes like it was made with ton Heinz tom sauce in it

We ate here tonight. Not been here before but my son chose it for a change. Was bit apprehensive on arrival, but then noticed the 5 star Hygiene rating on the door. Ordered our meals and WOW. The food was absolutely fantastic. We were a party of 5 and tried a lot of different things on the menu. None of us had anything negative to say. Everything was cooked to perfection. Service was good too. If you haven't been before I would give it a try. We will be going back again. Well done team Kathmandu.

Never again,..nilgiri chicken curry not as described on menu,...awful. I could not eat it. V poor tasteless garlic/onion rice..the garlish was a piece of radish on top of curry!...etc

Very nice restaurant. Food is the best. Thank you

Food was amazing, will definitely be going again!

Fantastic food flavour and service couldn’t eat everything despite trying

We really enjoyed the food and the hospitality. The Lamb chops were mouthwatering and my kids loved the momos.

It was very disappointing and annoying experience i had. I tried calling them for my delivery updates and they was very rude to me and forced me to cancel my order. And when i told i can't cancel my order they cancel my order themselves. And they hung up the call. They have no patience as well as they dont know how to talk to customers .

Yet to try the food but based on the amount of patience the guy taking our order over the phone had because of bad signal my hopes are high thank you very much. Can't wait!

Excellent will have again best curry ever

Friendly Staffs with yummy foods.

I had my worst experience with this place ordered my food it arrived 1 hour and 30 minutes when i opened I was disgusting old food cold chicken curry was a some sponge stuff inside never seen before later find out was cheese I’m still shocked they still in business.

Very impressive, first time I tried you guys this evening and everything was spot on, lots of stuff and only £20ish

Food was great would recommend visiting, prices are reasonable too..🙂

Food always amazing & great service!

Wow, this is one of the best if not the best indian/Nepalese curry's I've ever had and I've had hundreds. Quality, taste and freshness, absolutely superb. Friendly and super quick delivery..

Amazing food, delivery was double quick time and very polite, first time used this restaurant and lived up to its reputation

We have booked last minute at this restaurant to have an Indian meal, it was 7 of us Food was verry tasty and authentic, big potions,excellent service ,prices verry reasonable I would definitely recommend And definitely be back again.😋😋

Tried quite a few Indian restaurants in the area but this is the best by miles! Can't believe I overlooked it for so long. The food tasted very authentic, not overly seasoned, sickly or sweet like some Indian takeaway food can be, but just the perfect amount of flavour! The food was clearly freshly made and came to the table piping hot! Tasted amazing!! The peshwari naan and onion bhajis were a highlight for me! On top of that, the staff were extremely friendly and attentive. Prices reasonable, restaurant very clean and has a 5* hygiene rating! Will be returning regularly and definetely recommend trying if you're in the area!

It’s a little pricey but this is my favourite Indian restaurant by far!

Service good. Food served quickly, however, I prefer food served in metal dishes on hotplates rather than ceramic bowls as meal cooled down quite quickly. I had chicken Nilgiri which was excellent. All our party agreed food was very good. However it was very noisy in restaurant which is a pet hate of mine. I like to dine out and hear my friends rather than the neighbouring tables high pitched laughter and chat. Would dine there again but at a quieter time.

My first visit to the Kathmandu Palace in Ditton at the weekend will not be my last. The food was superb, surroundings classy, vibrant and welcoming and the staff looked after us beautifully. Highly recommended. I'm told the takeaway service is excellent also. Well done all and thank-you.

Went this afternoon and the food was hot and tasty 😋 and freshly made well done was lovely

Very mediocre, and if you know what a good curry tastes like, this is below average at best.

Great curries, staff were really friendly and helpful. Went to celebrate son passing GCSE'S and he was treated to a free main course if he showed his results! Well done Kathmandu for doing this offer to recognise hard work and making him feel so proud!!

Food is good specifically vegetarian. Large groups can end up waiting long.

Had a lovely meal , food delicious , staff were polite and helpful , went as a large group and the service was great . Would definitely recommend .

Excellent! Came with my Mum and the Inlaws and everyone had a great meal. Would definitely come again.
