Ordered a delivery at just before - we were told it would be an hour. At 8:25 we were told it had just left and would be 20 mins. When we questioned why as we are 5 mins away - the story changed to it was being packed. Finally arrived after over 2 hours!! King Prawn curry - what a joke, a few shrimp - more sauce than anything else. Very very disappointing 😡

We were on a short break near Blandford and booked dinner here because we love Nepalese food and recent reviews were very positive. However our experience was pretty poor. We were shown to a table in a crowded room upstairs with no atmosphere. The staff were lovely but not well trained and the food did not come anywhere near our expectations. All in all not a great experience and, to be honest, we couldn't wait to leave.

A firm favourite for a takeaway, visited the restaurant for the first time last week and the food was brilliant as always, service was good and with a bill at less than £110 for 4 people including wine and beer 🙌🏻

Ordered a recommended by the accommodation providers when we were staying nearby. We ordered on the app and were able to select a time. Nothing stated that it may be after that which It was by half an hour. We waited 1.5 hours total for a delivery and it was mediocre food. Tasty but not particularly warm and when using the app be warned it tells your the stages before they are relevant causing alarm bells when it pings saying delivery complete and you don't have your food.

My family, along with another, had the pleasure of dining at Namaste Ghurka this past Saturday night, an experience that left us all with a profound sense of satisfaction and delight. Comprising 4 adults & 4 teens, our diverse group found common ground in the exceptional meal we shared, which my husband-a discerning foodie w a hearty appetite-described as the best he's had in a v long time. He was still talking about it the following evening at dinner. The ambiance of the restaurant added significance to our enjoyment with the ceilings adorned with prayer flags creating an atmosphere that was both inviting and spiritually uplifting. The philosophy seems to be centered around providing food that not only satisfies the palate but also nourishes the soul. A very relaxed and authentic place.

We cannot wait to come back to Namaste Gurkha and we couldn’t recommend it enough. What a brilliantly authentic restaurant/take away, where you really feel you’re getting a slice of proper Gurkha cuisine. We were blown away by the food (see photos for what we ordered). We had never eaten here or Gurkhan before, and the hostess recommended what we should try. The atmosphere was lovely, very quiet, incense lit, and a in a small high street house. The service was fab, waited a good amount of time before checking on food, bringing next courses. And they gave us some takeaway trays to take home our food. We will 100% be going back, as we love Dorset and this will be a firm favourite for dining out.

As a large group of 13 we tried the largest, most central Indian restaurant in Blandford who were quite rude on the phone and not willing to take our business. We decided to try the Namaste Ghurka and they couldn’t be more welcoming and helpful. Although small, the service, food and surroundings were excellent and value for money was exceptional!! I couldn’t recommend this restaurant more and this will be our new “go to” in Blandford.

Nice little restaurant serving principally Nepalese cuisine. Staff a mixture of people who want to stay in the background and a server who didn't know much about the food: "Not my realm". Taped music which might be nice for relaxation but just goes on and on.

We turned up without a booking and the young staff allowed us to have a table upstairs in the back room. The order was taken and drinks brought to us but the food was rather slow and at one point we thought that we had been forgotten. Although it gave us time to relax and chat for around an hour. However, the food was worth the wait and everything was delicious. After we had finished it was quite late and as we were staying at the Crown Hotel in town we just walked back and went to bed. We were pleasantly surprised at how cheap the meal and drinks were. We paid around £36.00 for the lot which was such good value. I will definitely visit here the next time I am in the Blandford forum area.

Nice food, albeit some luke warm on arrival. Presumably due to the 20 min delay which made the total wait time 2hrs. If they can’t keep up with demand and service, perhaps reduce the time slots provided on the app. 2hr wait for a takeaway just isn’t great.

Very tasty food in Blandford Forum. We visited for an early dinner on a rainy midweek night between Christmas and New Years, and although the dining area was quiet, the place was buzzing with takeaway orders. Our starters of pani puri and special mixed kebabs were excellent, and the mains of the prawn achhari and pork curry were very good, albeit milder than we expected. One oddity was the cucumber raita that we ordered that arrived without any cucumbers and was extremely sweet (more like a sweet lassi served in a bowl), so we had to return that and it was taken off our bill at the end. All in all, this place is definitely worth a visit if you are in the area, or fancy a takeaway.

Since moving to the area this is the third meal of quality. Deliveries and collections have been more or less to time and always in a friendly fashion. Not expensive and more than adequate portion size. also feel that the menu choice has individuality rather than the tired range of jalfrezi, bhuna .... , dishes. Certainly makes me want to return to try out another option.

This just took too long. We ordered at 5.50pm and didn't get our food until 8.05pm. It said it would be ready at 7.20pm. I thought that would be the delivery time but no, we had another 45 minutes wait when we live about 8 mins from the restaurant. The lamb was very tough but the rest of the food was pretty nice. The ordering was good and it was great that credit cards are accepted but 2hrs 15 mins is just too long to wait for us to be likely to order again.

As a former member of the Brigade of Gurkhas, I know a really good Nepalese curry, and this is definitely the place to find one! We were staying in Blandfor forum en route to catch a ferry from Poole next day, and this restaurant made for a wonderful start to our holiday. The sukuti was perfectly done, with just the right amount of heat and the perfect texture. Difficult to find this so authentically done! We chose several starters and curries, plus sides and drinks all round including a large ‘Gurkha’ beer for me, and the bill was £48, which I call outstanding value. Staff we delightful and friendly, service was swift, and the chef came to talk to us in person and tailored some dishes to cater for my childrens’ allergies. I would massively recommend this excellent restaurant - I could imagine myself back in Kathmandu or Pokhara. We’ll be back!

Have now eaten there twice after recently moving to Blandford. Both times the food was excellent, tasty and the portions were not too huge. The naan could have been a little less overcooked, but the starters were fabulous. Great selection of beers and only other comment would be that the service was a little slow. Really enjoyable experience on both occasions, as the staff were very friendly and polite.
