The 29029 in Purbeck

The best curry we have had in a long while. Delivered directly to our forest lodge at Burnbake Campsite during Storm Darragh So good we had another later in the week. Delicious, fresh, great vegetarian options and so tasty. Excellent service. Best naan around

We are regular lunchtime customers who enjoy your food very much. We called in last Friday for our lunch. The food was amazing as always. We did find it a bit chilly in the restaurant though. We kept our fleeces on and didn’t stay as long as we might have done. Otherwise superb. We will be back but on a warmer day.

Our first surprise when we arrived was the size of the restaurant, it’s huge and busy. Parking was difficult owing to the amount of people here. The food was ok-ish but for us it was too sweet and salty overall. The service was indifferent with a lack of smiles. It’s obviously a very popular place but sadly not for us.

We've eaten here a couple of times in the past while staying in the area. We were here on a Thursday evening. It was quiet though we'd booked a table. We like the different dishes on the menu here. Particularly the Nepali dishes. We weren't disappointed this time.

We happen to pass by on a way to Knoll Beach and we returned in the evening for the dinner on the way home after reading reviews. We were not disappointed, the interior is modern and colours look great, the food quality and portion size were excellent and the staff and service was perfect.

We went for dinner one evening while staying the area on holiday. Delicious food, great service, nice atmosphere and very interesting menu.

Wow wow wow. Having worked in the area for 2 years and driven past this place many times we finally popped in with visiting friends for a evening meal. Why did we leave it so long? Absolutely the best fusion mix we have had. Brilliant service from start to finish. Miss it at your loss.

I have been here several times and it is by far the best curry restaurant I have ever been to. Treated like a VIP every time and the food is always incredible! Would highly recommend for a fine dining experience. Wheelchair accessible which is always a nice touch. The food is incredible, would very highly recommend the Old Delhi Chicken and the Chicken Lababder! Also the only curry place that I have ever been to that sells Gurkha Larger. Usually most places only have Cobra or Kingfisher but Gurkha is so nice and has become one of my favourites

Amazing food, lovely people will come again with my family, I had the duck and organ was a amazing love it, the people are so good and nice

A very popular place to eat. We had trouble parking and then a 45 minute wait for our food. When it arrived it was really good but the whole experience was spoilt for us by the wait. We were there over 2 hours for starters and a main.

The food at this restaurant is amazing. It is wonderfully prepared and served. You really can’t fault it and the service is first class. Excellent value and quality and definitely worth a visit

The food was spectacular as always very tasty and perfect quantity for a delicious Indian dinner my sister had just graduated from university and this was our celebration dinner

We dined there this evening 01/08/24 and gave to say we had a great welcome from the staff. Drinks order taken and pompadoms. We had 2 mains with a veg and rice. The food was delicious and the service impeccable and friendly. We would definitely return again when next in the area. Great value for the money.

The food was superb, a beautiful blend of spices that elevated the dishes. We chose a medley of starters and the spicy crusted scallops. The medley contains four different items each with an accompanying sauce which complemented each one. The scallops were lightly cooked and very tasty. We had a lamb shank and duck nepali which we both enjoyed. It was great to see desserts that were made in house as well

We made a relatively late booking for the 29029 to eat on a Saturday night. The restaurant has a number of unusual dishes on the menu, and we chose the pork vindaloo. My first mouthful of a curry in a new restaurant is always of just the sauce so that you get a real sense of the depth of flavour. Here, there were 5 distinct 'waves' of flavour, each separated by a couple of seconds. The sauce was not too spicy but tasted simply fantastic. Possibly the best we have ever tasted. Truly excellent food.

My son suggested this place for something a bit different for mother's day lunch and I'm very glad he did. The food was gorgeous and I'm not usually very adventurous when it comes to food, but I loved the different chutneys, stir fried cauliflower & potatoes and my masala. They also do a buffet at lunch times, which looked equally as lovely. Staff were friendly & attentive. We will definitely be back

My friend and I treated ourselves to lunch at 29029 and what a treat it was! The food was delicious, the presentation was a work of art, and the service was friendly and kind. The price was also extremely reasonable. We had 2 starters and a main course with peshwari naan bread between us and a mango lassi each. The starters were: Cottage Cheese Cakes: Seasoned With A Blend Of Spices And Cilantro, Then Coated With Roasted Sesame Seeds, Apricot Chutney And Mango Dressing; and Potato Cakes With Spinach: Potato Patties Mixed With Asparagus And Topped With Yoghurt, Mint And Tamarind Chutney, Served With Warm Chickpea Salad. For main course we had Modu Murg: Strips Of Chicken Breast Cooked With Honey And Coconut In A Creamy Sauce With Shavings Of Crisp Parsnips.

Great food and the staff are some of the friendliest I've ever encountered, it's my third visit in 3 months and I plan on coming back for a fourth. Hidden gem.

The presentation, service and food quality was excellent. Delicious curries presented with a twist and good selection of wine. All at a very reasonable price. We would definitely recommend and return.

Great selection and all fresh and really lovely service. First time for lunch here but have had a evening meal here a couple of times. Definitely worth a stop and the drive from surrey

After visiting the restaurant for several years, we tried takeaway for the first time. We tried items from the menu we had never previously tried. The Old Dehli curry was reasonably spicy but very sweet, whilst the duck was good. The only slight disappointment was one missing starter from the delivery.

The place was heaving - it was a Saturday night - we felt a little forgotten about. Service was slow and a little inaccurate.

Must say the food when we got eventually, was very good,but really the service is very poor,almost 3 hrs,would love to have tried the desserts but was not prepared to wait another 30 mins or so,especially as one of the family had just done a 12hr shift , So if your not in a hurry or not hungry when you first arrive this is the place to go.

I don’t normally leave reviews but tonights experience was exceptional. Just popped in for a quick curry on way back from gym, and boy am I glad I did. I have never eaten here before as I am only visiting the area for a week. So what can I say… Food tastes, flavours, aromas and textures just work! Putting it simply a delicious and altogether exceptional food experience. The service was great too. Can’t wait for my next trip!

This is our favourite restaurant in the area. The staff are always very welcoming and attentive. The food is well cooked and presented. The buffet lunch offers a good selection of starters and a couple of main dishes plus a desert. The evening menu is very extensive.

Amazing food! Good atmosphere! Lovely staff! Been here a few times and would definitely come again!! 10/10 recommend

Amazing as always. Visit as part of a works get together. Service top notch as always food is fantastic. I have been coming here for 10 years now and have never been let down!!! It is the finest Indian and Nepalese restaurant in Dorset/Hampshire area for sure!! Well done to all the staff front or back of house. See you again soon

One of the best restaurants we have visited, the food was amazing and perfectly cooked, the staff were very friendly and accommodating, I would highly recommend this restaurant.

We had a wonderful delicious meal. The service was excellent and the food was beautifully cooked and presented. It is little wonder why this restaurant is an award winning business. The Kathmandu curry is simply delicious

Take-away from here last weekend, service always good like the meal, and they are all so friendly. You can ask to 'hot it up' if you think you can manage a few chillis.

Family night out. Great choice of restaurant. Ambience, service and especially food is top notch. All our allergies and intolerences were well catered for. It is clean, tidy and well presented. The table was ours without pressure. Absolutely loved it.

Once again we've just had a fantastic meal at the 29029. We usually get our food delivered from here and know we can always rely on getting great food but, as it was my brother's birthday and my husband's was earlier in the week, we...

Visited on a Sunday for their lunch buffet.. not been to this establishment before, but I can truely say it was a gem. Its not much to look at from the outside.. has free parking, which is an added bonus. It cost us less then...

People are quick to complain when they receive poor service and many are less quick to give a well deserved Pat on the back when they’ve had a great time. We have been here several times and just last night we returned for a family...

We were staying in a lodge very close by and wanted a meal out. We had driven passed a few times and thought it would be a good place. We were not disappointed. The food more than makes up for the slightly tired looking decor....

Dropped in on the off chance, couldn't have been made more welcome. Excellent meal, one of the best curries I have eaten. Well worth a trip out and will be going back.

The is an excellent restaurant. We had a lovely meal, the food was excellent and service wonderful.. We look forward to going again .

Totally brilliant, thanks very much to all the staff ,wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others 😀 👍

We ordered a takeaway from the restaurant, the delivery to the camp site at Corfe Castle was less than 45 minutes from order and the food was nice and hot. Great flavours and excellent quality food. We will definitely be ordering again on future visits...

We have dined here a lot and it is consistently brilliant! From the friendly greeting as we walked through the door to the great service during our meal. It’s a great place to eat and we’ll be booking again very soon.

Just a quick note to say: you guys really are still the best. Have just devoured the Nepalese Hansh Bhutuwa – Woodfired breast of duck cooked with green herbs, nepalese spices & spring onions – and it was the best to date. Don't know if...

Yet another amazing meal at this fabulous restaurant. Can not fault the food, the service and excellent value for money. Generous portions and beautifully presented. The lamb in my curry was just perfect. You really can’t get a better tasting meal in the Isle of...

Exceptional Indian/Nepalese restaurant. For me the best curry restaurant in Dorset. Well worth a stop. Great hospitality.

Having read the reviews & fans of good Asian food we tried 29029. The menu was varied & different with plenty of choices. Staff were welcoming, friendly & efficient & the restaurant had a nice ambience (& with comfortable chairs!) The food was some of...

Always love coming to the 29029! Service is always fabulous and everyone is super friendly😄Had to share this picture from tonight with our friend!!😂

Nice evening here with friends. I asked for a Gurkhali lamb curry and to 'hot it up a bit', so they did. It was like a vindaloo and delicious, so you have to ask if you want it away from the normal mild range, which...

We enjoyed and exceptional family meal at this restaurant. The menu is somewhat different from the normal Indian / Asian restaurant, both the quality of the food and also the presentation of the meal was top class and well worth our visit. The service was...

Best meal of the week, while camping. Lovely popadoms and tray of chutney. My lamb shank beautifully cooked and spiced. My partner had a very mild korma (radiotherapy to throat can't eat spice) chicken very tender and it was extra mild. Great service and ambiance.

Superb food, beautifully presented by friendly and attentive staff. Wonderful flavours taking Indian food to the next level in style and taste. Really loved the Nepalese selection. A great place for an evening out. Highly recommended.

Great food and great service! Highly recommend. We are here monthly and it has never disappointed us

We were taken to this restaurant by local friends. If you look at the outside, you would drive straight past. However, look beyond this and the inside is modern and the chef and food are fantastic. Our party of 5 all had excellent meals and...

Fantastic food and good atmosphere. Had the spinach potato cake starter and aromatic duck main. Simply to die for and would definitely recommend to anybody be visiting Dorset!

This place has a reputation the height of Everest but the reality is it should be the height of Poole Harbour. The drinks were flat and obviously from some cheap 2 litre bottles. The mark of a good Nepalese restaurant is its Momo's. sadly the...

This restaurant is something very special! As a regular at 29029 I’m continuously blown away by the delicious food and friendly welcome. I would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone with a love for curry - the flavours are me amazing. Cam

It’s been a while since we’ve eaten here but I chose it for my birthday lunch. The restaurant was really busy which gave it a nice atmosphere. There have been a few changes since we last ate here with more staff, a change of position...

Love this place, away from the crowd , parking .Very cosy and relaxing atmosphere, excellent food and impeccable service,

We had friends from the Midlands visiting, there was only one place to go. We have eaten at the 29029 many times since they opened in 2014 & the standard has remained consistently high. Food & service is excellent, would have no hesitation in recommending...

Really fantastic experience, excellent menu with lots of choices, certainly not just a curry house. The service was excellent. The the food superb.I would recommend the Karelia or the tandoori rack of lamb

My wife and I have eaten at 29029 many times since they opened. I can honestly say that the food is as good now as when they opened. I have never had a warmer welcome in any restaurant. The cleanliness is first rate. The quality...

Great staff. Professional & friendly bunch of people. Delicious food! Portions are massive - couldn't finish our meal at the table but the lovely staff offered us takeaway containers. Restaurant could do with background music - would could hear other people's conversations. The only reason...

This restaurant is the best .. excellent food & friendly staff , always going out their way to accommodate you , had a great evening , would definitely recommend.

Excellent food, beautifully presented with good service. Will definitely return and recommend to friends. So many tastes never experienced before.

We were there with friends. Service was swift, very friendly, and attentive. The food was exquisite both in terms of taste and presentation. Highly recommend the fish-sharing platter. It's not tempura, so not "bits in batter". It is delicate, super tasty and each part has...

This spot is great for a family night out, a couple's night out and an amazing night out, no matter the day, no matter the time you will feel, after you go here you will feel full of flavour-full food, amazing. Lovely family run restaurant....

OMG. spectaculer. Exceptional food. I am south asian and this has reallllllly exceeded all expection. South asian restuarants usually serve generic heavy on the stomach food. This PLC. is no comparison. Pls come and visit 100% satisfaction. No doubt.

Haven’t eaten here for a few years and was very pleasantly surprised at how good it is. Food was beautifully presented and tasted fresh and delicious. The menu is very interesting and unlike any other Asian type restaurant in the area. The Nepalese twist gives...

Excellent food with superb presentation. Original menu options. Great atmosphere, and good friendly service. Highly recommended

Not a good night. Started badly with the popadoms. Asked for extra onion salad, and the waiter rolled his eyes. 45 minute wait for the starters, despite being only a third full. Got worse as the night went on. Would not recommend

Passed many a time and always said we must pop in! Lunch was a buffet self serve. lots of choice all very tasty and piping hot! Staff looked after us well. A bargain as well. Must try the full menu in the evening, there looks...

Lovely restaurant, delicious high quality food and great service - we will definitely be coming back! Thank you!

The 29029 was described to me as the best curry ever by friends in London before we moved to Dorset. They were right, it never fails to impress we go with family and friends whenever we have visitors they ask to go as it has...

Fabulous food (best curry I’ve ever had!) and lovely friendly staff!! Well worth a visit 10/10 recommended

The food at this Nepali restaurant was really delicious. Each dish had a different flavour. The portions were very generous. Most of the staff were very cheerful and friendly. Sadly, the waiter who served our table was not a happy person. We barely got a...
