The Khukuri in Edinburgh, City of

Excellent food and service as always.

Always visit when in Edinburgh. Food always fresh. We can't recommend it enough.

What a find. Very friendly with excellent service. Food to die for and not expensive for the quality of the food. The restaurant filled up quickly and the food coming out of the kitchen smelt fab. Next time in Edinburgh we will be there for another meal.

Great food - loved it so much that have eaten there three times in my 10 day stay

Absolutely delicious! The dinner meal with some traditional steamed vegetable momos were the perfect amount for 2 people to share on a date (we got more and had leftovers)

Excellent as usual. Best curry in Edinburgh

The food and service were fantastic. Would definitely recommend.

Incredible food and great service by Sunil and the rest of the team.

Pleasantly surprised by this little restaurant. Fresh starters, rich and tasty curries, unique flavours, friendly staff. A pleasure! We will be back

Awesome food Great service Super ambience Lovely hospitality Just loved it :) Just to add Saag Meat (prawns) was super awesome.. And they serve alcohol as well :)

Here for Christmas dinner. Everything excellent. Food lovely, staff friendly and really 'on the ball'. Will be coming back!

Popped in here when we were in Edinburgh food was good service was wonderful very friendly

I say this to everyone, the best Nepalese/Indian restaurant in Edinburgh without doubt.

Had a lovely meal as always. Staff are so friendly and the service was excellent considering it was so busy. Thank you for a great evening.

Had a fantastic meal and evening there with friends. Food was fabulous, great menu to choose from. Staff and service was excellent, friendly and courteous. Restaurant was busy and atmosphere was great. Lovely restaurant and would recommend it to anyone. Thanks for a great evening.😎😎

Revisiting a happy place after a few years

Succulent food and great service.

Our waiter Sunil was very helpful and kind, would highly recommend this place!

A small yet cozy restaurant to enjoy Nepali Cuisines. Better to reserve ahead or else have to wait long. We called earlier yet had to wait for more than half an hour. The momo has the authentic taste as from Nepal itself. Make sure to taste them.

Everything about this place is just perfect! Momos are the best we’ve had in Europe so far :) highly recommend!!

The food was good , staff is sweet but one staff was very rude, the male staff and the buisness needs better management.

The Khukuri never disappoints. Despite being incredibly busy the food was to its usual high standard. The service was excellent and our meals were all served with a smile.

Very nice meal. Service was good. Food was delicious and hot. Naan bread was the only item I could fault....it was a bit soggy. Bill came to £55.30 for 2 starters, 2 mains, 2 rice and naan bread. Would recommend.

Fantastic meal, could not fault the food. The service is second to none. Upon arrival we were greeted with smiling happy staff and it got better nothing was to much trouble. We wouldn't hesitate in recommending this restaurant.

Fantastic food and great friendly service. Fitted us in as we hadn’t booked. Even gave my nephew a great beer glass! Highly recommend this fabulous restaurant.

Amazing place to have some good food especially kothe and chilli garlic momos. Must try for anyone visiting Edinburgh.

A very enjoyable meal, service efficient & friendly.

We chose this (Indian) restaurant because it was Nepalese and we were not disappointed! We were made to feel very welcomed and seated comfortably. We both had the Pani Puri for a starter and they were magnificent! The waiter explained the dish and the best way to eat it and it was delicious. We then both opted for the Kathmandu curry with pilau rice & garlic naan bread, it was all so tasty and excellent quality. I would highly recommend this restaurant if you find yourself in the area.

Good experience in this very good Nepalese restaurant. Very good service and good quality.

Wonderful food. First time having Nepalese food and absolutely loved it. The atmosphere was really comfortable, with calm traditional music playing and a warm colour scheme for the walls. Paintings on the walls were nice and felt very homely. The food was perfect. Spicy enough to thoroughly enjoy it but not too spicy where I needed 5 glasses of milk. Meat cooked to perfection and rice and naan bread very simple and had the perfect consistency. Staff were very hospitable and already readily available.

The food was incredible. I had the Everest Curry with paneer and it was delicious- some of the best curry I've ever tasted. Also tried the momos which were very good. The staff were really friendly and accommodating. It was a very pleasant place to eat.

One of the best Indian food we had at here.nice welcoming staff behaviour. Nice starter. Best food.

Excellent service and very tasty food. Very good value for money.

Delicious food and lovely staff - will definitely be back

Food was awesome.. we ordered Nepali thali which we were having for the first time and it just blew our mind… All the food items were delicious.. I also asked for some green chillis with the thali and the waiter happily gave it to me for free… so very amazed with their service and would visit again… kudos to the entire team of ‘The Khukuri’ ❤️❤️

Always great service and excellent food - will be back!

Absolutely brilliant, fantastic food, amazing service, can’t wait to return!

Food was amazing, everyone in the party loved it! One of the best meals I have had!

We came after reading all review and our expectations were absolutely right food was amazing and fast service We got same taste of momo as like as Nepal Will definitely come back

We arrived earlier than our booking time and the restaurant was rather busy after the Rugby at Murrayfield. Despite this, the staff managed to provide a table, with excellent, friendly service and food to a very high standard. Many thanks!

Cosy restaurant. Polite service. Food delicious.

Another lovely meal at this local gem. Delicious food and attentive service are a winning combination.

Outstanding food ! Great host, good ambience - but the food overpowers everything ! Went there 3 times over 2 days gives away the quality .. Gives any great restaurant in India a run for its money.

Outstanding food ! Amazing taste !! Went for lunch .. loved it soo much that went back for dinner as well :)

I had never heard of this restaurant, but spotted it on Deliveroo, and its menu seemed interesting and a bit different, and it offered lots of choice for vegetarians and vegans, so I thought I'd try it. I'm so glad I did. When the food arrived, it smelled wonderful; as I laid the food out, I was a bit concerned that nearly everything I ordered had a similar-looking sauce, but they were all very different, and very delicious. Prices were reasonable, and portions generous. I will definitely be ordering from them again in future. I've ordered again, and found several more delicious dishes: their chana masala and vegetable dhansak are both light years away from the run-of-the -mill versions in your average Indian restaurant. Both are utterly delicious: beautifully spiced, and heartwarming without too much heat. And their mixed pickle has lovely textures again, without being too spicy hot.

First time to try garlic and chill nann , you deserve a warm curry in the chilly winter time 😍

Lassi was avg, they do mess up some of the orders, for example we ordered tandoori ckn, and we got ckn tikka instead. Some of the curries were normal, like palak and the mint based ones Momos are the best I've had. Thin skin and crispy for the pan fried one, and pliable skin for the steamed one. Garlic chili was also actually spicy Everest curry was really good. There's some unique spice with a very particular aroma that I've never had before. Definitely get this. Mutton was alright Naans and other breads were quite average, the toppings/fillings were not very generous. Keema naan was pretty decent

First time ever and highly recommend. Great service amazing food and feel transported to nepal.

Very nice Momos and rasmalai 🤌🏾🫶🏾

Very good experience at the Khukuri Saturday lunch time before the Rugby, staff & facilities were 1st class. Being a wee bit of a Indian / Nepalese / Sri Lankan foodie, the shared Vegie entrees were excellent serving size & flavour, the mains were good, the Vegans just felt lacked a little depth on the Dahl dishes, for me the hottest curry was medium intensity, a wee bit light on the meat share. Good value, all in all would definitely return for another round.

Service and food were excellent!

Great food, reasonably priced, decent portions. Lamb chops were amazing. Really friendly and efficient service. Attentive without rushing us. Would happily visit again.

Tried khukuri veg thali and all the items served were good (hot, tasty and spicy as requested). Would recommend if you are looking for nepali food.

Colorful interior and deliciously made food at affordable prices. The staff members are really helpful and courteous.

Best I've had in years.recomend everyone try this place.

d was lovely and flavourful. It's the second time for me at the restaurant and the staff are friendly and the service quick. For something different from the usual Indian you may eat, head to the flavours of Nepal on display here

Authentic, delicious Nepalese food. Whenever we are in Edinburgh this is where we head for. The food is consistently delicious, and the service is really quite fantastic. See you soon.

Great food and outstanding service

Great little restaurant, good choice menu, lovely food and attentive service

Food was top quality and the service was fast high standard.

This is the 4th time I've been to the Khukuri and I'll definitely be back again. The food is absolutely awesome, and it's consistently awesome. Each time I've gone I've had a different combination of the momos for starters, a paneer or vegetable main with roti and naan, there is a wide selection. Each dish I've had has been fantastic, and pretty generous portion sizes too for the price. The staff as extremely friendly and helpful and despite the restaurant seemingly always packed, bustling and atmospheric, they're quick and attentive without being overbearing. As a small aside, but that means alot to me, is that they don't charge a mandatory service charge - something which seemingly every restaurant has pivoted to these days - so I try and make sure I leave a decent sized tip to encourage the practice. It is a small thing but it just feeds into the fact that every aspect of dinner at the Khukuri is wonderful. My partner and I had a starter, main, naan and drink and paid less than £25 each. It is worth far more money than that, and I am warmed a little every time I walk past and see it busy. It so deserves to be busy, it's a terrific place and you should give it your business.

Managed to get in early on a Friday night. We were lucky as it was buzzing with diners and takeaways. All seemed to be dealt with very efficiently. Did not know anything about Nepalese food but tried to choose typical dishes rather than what we would order at an Indian. Quite a revelation. It was different and we really enjoyed it. Momos were delicious as was the vegetarian starter selection. Crisp, hot and seemed very homemade. The non vegetarian thali was absolutely great with a selection of curry style dishes as well as dahl, rice, bread and a vegetable pickle. Hard to beat. We over ordered but got to try an excellent selection and still found it great value. Service was lovely and smiley 😊

Best curry I've had in a long time.

The food is great, spiced up well, and the atmosphere is very nice. I’d definitely recommend!

Fantastic food, cheerful staff who were simply wonderful. Such a good experience, I'm looking to travelling to Nepal. Highly recommend!

Excellent food, staff were great catering for the group well and looking after us well.

I live in Edinburgh and have a lot to choose from but this is my ‘go-to’ place. Always great food and lovely service. Lots of meat and vegetarian options. Just a great restaurant that I love. And it never ceases to amaze, that whatever day I go, it’s busy. And I know why 🤗

It is hard to rate this one because the food was nice but it also felt adapted to Britain, it does not help I ordered the most British of all choices. Overall, I will give it a 5 with a slight benefit of a doubt because of potentially my poor choice.

“Unfortunately” we had to come twice before we got the food. Can happen if you walk past spontaneously. The meal was worth it. Fantastic Service very friendly As soon as we are back in Edinburgh we will come back. Thanks

Stopped in her on a whim, ended being an extremely tasty lunch! The Chana masala, mushroom rice, & alu cauli were all absolutely delicious. 10/10 would recommend.

Wonderful place, very friendly staff, delicious foods at a very reasonable price. Can’t recommend them enough, will be going there again as soon as I can.

First time experiencing Nepalese food and very impressed.

Excellent, authentic food, great service and lovely people.

The food was delicious. The service attentive but not intrusive. Highly recommend.

Fantastic food, excellent service, very pleasant service.

Visited on Saturday 12th October. Food and service was ever 1st class and cannot wait to visit again. I would thoroughly recommend this restaurant

Service is bad. Rude waiter especially the lady(indian) . I feel like they were giving priority to foreigner customers and,becames super nice to them than other ethnicity customers . Food is average...just average food with some fancy name.

If I could then I would give the No star at all. When we enter the staff was rude, shown her cheap behaviour The attitude was on the top.

Amazing food. Will be back for sure!

First time eating Nepalese, and that too in Edinburgh...... Friendly people, plenty of time for explanations. And delicious dishes!!!

You can find best food here . The staff is good and calm .Overall its the best restaurant in Edinburgh I have visited.

Went there with my friend on september. The food was worst. Biryani was like rice and it was mixed with chicken curry and given. Momo was worst. Worst momo i have ever had in my life . The staff were friendly and had a good sense of humour.

Our expectations were not met - they were exceeded! Absolutely delicious food. The staff is great, and the atmosphere is also nice. We had a perfect time here and will 100% come back.

Excellent food, brilliant service. Many varied choices across the menu.

Absolutely loved it. Spicy as hell and just amazing quality. Need I say more. There is a reason this place is reviewed so well.

Food was very tasty and very well prepared. Prices were okay.

The food was so tasty. It was full of spices as I expected. The momo and lamb chops is so good. I would recommend the restaurant to everyone. The staff were amazing, took order as your preference spices level including allergies and all.

Excellent service and food here , the atmosphere is very good,, staff is very friendly,, I recommend to all going this restaurant nd enjoy food

We went Saturday night and that was fully packed I really enjoyed the food Best service and best food Must try at The Khukuri Nepalese restaurant Haymarket

Must have jhol momo.. It's delicious 😋

Food is brilliant, had multiple different curries there now, all class. Sell draught kingfisher which is a great beer. Staff are very friendly and quick service all the time. Only one thing I would say is there can be a lot of ubereats delivery people coming and going, they do try to keep them outside out the way but it can bring down the restaurant atmosphere a bit, otherwise top class place.

Got the Chana Masala and Garlic chili naan, both were excellent

Great service. Food was really good. It feels like home. I really enjoyed momo and mustang aloo. Thanks again for the great food.

Ate here as was close to the hotel. An unpretentious place, near Edinburgh Haymarket station. Absolutely blown away by the food, which was amazing. Had several appetizers rather than a main, but both very tasty. Definitely recommend

Good food and very nepali decore....Sweet and very attentive staff...I had pani puri and Namchi veg curry. Both were delicious!

Another fantastic meal - restaurant and staff continue to deliver an excellent experience. Cannot wait until next time.

Fantastic food, amazing atmosphere, friendly staff

Excellent environment, friendly service, great menu choices and really decent food and at affordable price! Heart is full ❤️

Everything is absolutely tasty and plentiful, choice for vegetarians, fast, professional service and always with a smile, excellent value for money. well done to the team and thank you very much.

Very exotic. Hearty and tasty. RAS we recommend this restaurant!
