Staff was amazingly welcoming and friendly, the chef himself even came out after the food to make sure everything was okay. Food was incredibly fresh and tasty, honestly for the price quite literally fine dining! Amazing! Would recommend to anyone passionate towards Indian/Nepalese cuisine, or even not accustomed to it whatsoever.

Stayed at The Hampton by Hilton and found this restaurant close by. We were not disappointed! Very welcoming and friendly staff, food was amazing. We ordered the Vegetable Biryani and a lamb dish with Peshwari Naan, all were cooked to perfection but I would highly recommend the Biryani, quite unique! Will definitely return when we’re next in Edinburgh.

We had starters and main courses with side dishes. The food was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented. The staff were polite and friendly. The food was served fairly quickly too. The only small negative was that the restaurant was almost empty. This may have been because we were eating fairly early in the evening. We also thought the decor was a bit loud and could have been more tasteful. But if you like great food, well served and at a reasonable price, you can’t go wrong with the Gurka Bar

Having walked out of a nearby restaurant due to shoddy service, we quickly called Gurkha to check they had availability and then made our way there where we received a very warm welcome. Orders were taken quickly and soon we were tucking into some of the finest Nepalese / Indian food I can ever remember being served. Sheekh kebab - amazing, Chicken Madras - stunning, rice and naans all superb. Thanks for a great welcome and superb food, rest assured we know where to come next time we're in Edinburgh !

Was part of a group of 7, so there was a wee bit of a wait for our food - but it was well worth the wait! We all had something different, but it was all obviously freshly cooked. Wide menu, chef and waiter both very attentive, and lots of nice touches, like the extra nibbles that came with the poppadoms and the refreshing, spicy drink after our meal. The food was amazing, nicely presented and very good value for money. Would definitely recommend - only sorry I don't live closer as I would be a regular customer!

OMG , this place has best hospitality and the best food. We visited twice in 24 hrs and I swear this place has unmatchable food. They serve the chef’s special pakoras and chai and who doesn’t love free food. Yet they had the best indian taste and on top of that the chef’s asks the food preferences and makes up to it .

This place is easy to find and offers unique and authentic flavors that combine the best of Indian and Nepalese cuisine. The service was very friendly and attentive, making sure everything was perfect without being invasive. We felt well taken care of at all times. The curries were certainly the best thing about our visit. Unfortunately, we did not have much time to come back, but we would definitely love to come back to enjoy this experience again

We had an amazing meal at ghurka bar and restaurant. We went for lunch as a family and were very welcomed by all staff who were so friendly and make you feel so well looked after. The nepalese curry was beautiful and chicken korma was melt in the mouth. We also loved the poppadoms with chutneys and appetisers. Nothing was a bother even though my dad wanted fish and chips the chef was more than happy to accommodate him. The chef is amazing here and his food is second to none.We will definitely be back.

This place was a fantastic last minute find. The flavours were fresh, food delicious and the service perfect. It was so nice to sample a Nepalese food which is different to what we are used to. Would defo recommend to anybody who finds themselves in Edinburgh with a fancy for something tasty and service with a smile 😃

A delicious Indian restaurant, very close to Edinburgh Castle, about five minutes walk. Shrimp and lamb curry are recommended! The naan of various flavors is baked very crispy, with a strong wheat flavor! The price is not expensive, three people ate about 60 pounds, cheap, affordable and delicious! Purple potato pudding purple potato pudding purple potato pudding purple potato pudding!!

Popped in for a quick meal whilst in Edinburgh. Very nice friendly service with a wide choice of dishes. Everything we chose was delicious and very tasty with good balance of spices. The owner/chef came and chatted, and offered us a lovely spiced tea to complete our meal. We will come back.

Such a great and lovely place, with amazing staff and chef. Got served the tea first, which was absolutely wonderful. Then I had some doubt about the vegetarian dish and the Chef came to personally clear, which I am grateful for. The food is as great as I expected. Absolutely recommended!!! 💯

Lovely Restaurant with great tasty food grills starters to curries and naan. Staff was very polite and funny especially Tej the main comedian. Tej & staff were very passionate about their food and service was fast and no waiting for food to arrive. Mixed Grill was full of flavours and Tarka Daal was just amazing not forgetting the wholemeal chapati. Will be back. Thanks Tej & staff. David (Dav) from Birmingham 💯💓🙋🏻🙌🏻🕊️🙏🏻
