The food was really tasty and had the element of uniqueness that definitely sets it aside from other Indian and Nepalese restaurants. The Naga chicken curry and their special biryani are the highlights.

I have nothing but praise for this place. The food is delicious! And is a price match for majority of other restaurants despite the “£20-30” tag here on google reviews. If you get the restaurant owner as your server for the night, you are in for a treat. What a delightful guy with the most amazing energy, even when there were not many customers. Truly the best service I remember having in years. I even oversaw how accommodating he was to a family that complained about their foods spice-level, despite being warned and saying yes anyway. Highly recommend!

The restaurant was exceptionally clean and the tables were displayed nicely and just a pleasure to have dinner there. Whoever owns this restaurant should be proud of themselves. It’s a hidden gem.

Went here last Saturday with some friends for dinner before we hit the town. It was the first time I went to this restaurant and I must say I was not disappointed, in face quite the opposite. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. The lovely lady behind the bar was called Niru and she was so friendly and polite. Our waiter was actually the manager Ashis (think I spelled correctly) and he was one of the friendliest guys I've ever met at a restaurant. I had the chicken tikka missala and was really nice. Was sent out quickly, was nice and hot, and just very tasty indeed. My friends also thought it was a great restaurant and the ideal place to have eaten before hitting the town. This place is highly recommended and you will not be disappointed. My personal rating: 10/10 :-)

During my recent visit to Gurkha Chicken, I had an excellent experience. I was excited to try Nepali dishes for the first time and was not disappointed. The Peshwari Naan was a standout dish and a clear winner over regular Naan. The combination of sweetness and spiciness was perfect and it was baked to perfection. The Veg Samoosa (set of 3) was delicious and the sauce that came with it was marvellous. The Samoosas were small but filled me up, and the filling was perfectly spiced. The Mushroom Rice was really good, with the rice cooked to perfection and the mushroom adding a subtle flavour. The Jalfrezi Chicken was also good, but not as great as the other dishes. The curry was sufficient to eat for two people, but the flavour was not as bold as I had hoped. Overall, I was thoroughly impressed with my meal at Gurkha Chicken and will surely recommend this place to friends and family.

What a good meal! And in the most unlikely of locations situated next to the Maidstone West station. Several things impressed me about The Ghurka Kitchen Nepalese/Indian restaurant in Maidstone. The onion bhajis were some of the best I’ve ever had. Someone in my party described them as “spectacular”. They were crispy on the outside but still had the substance and moisture of the onion on the inside. We think they had an extra kick of chilli. Everything worked. And then on to the main. Rice (egg fried and mushroom), chicken madras, chicken bhuna and chicken pasanda (which was not on the menu but made specially because one of our party really likes it) . I had the madras which was nicely hot, with a building heat, but which was also flavoursome. I had a little taste of the other dishes and they were simply delicious. The staff in the restaurant were very friendly and the food was served at an ideal pace, leaving just the right amount of time between courses. Looking for a good Nepalese/Indian meal in Maidstone? Consider the Gurkha Kitchen.

I was extremely disappointed by the curry. Very small portions; bland and extremely expensive for a meal that tasted no better than a jar curry sauce from a supermarket. I paid £50 for a meal for three that would have cost me £10 (if that) to make at home for three people. Totally underwhelmed and disappointed. Such a shame.
