First timers - 5 stars all the way. We will now be regulars! Love the separate bar area for a pre drink and warm welcoming interior. Thank you

This is a fantastic Nepalese restaurant in Kidlington. The staff were so friendly and attentive, and the food was delicious. There was plenty of choice on the menu, including fish, lamb, and chicken, as well as vegetarian options. I would highly recommend this restaurant as you will not be disappointed.

A real good welcome and chat before I sat down and feasted on delicious food. I asked for typical Nepali dishes. I got just that . The staff are polite and friendly. Nothing us too much. Wonderful experience with the real Nepali touch.

From someone who eats out quite a bit, I can honestly say that this was the best curry that I've had in a long time - possibly ever! I had the chicken lababda, which was just amazing- the flavourings and spices were unlike anything I've ever tasted before. My son had the chicken korma, which was also delicious. Rice was plump and tasty and the nan bread (plain) was not at all greasy or too oversized. For desert we had gulab jamun, which was also good. This restaurant holds a 5 star food hygiene rating from 23 May 2023. Will definitely be back next time we come to Oxford - we'll done!

The food was just wonderfully made to perfection. The staff were so polite and friendly as well. Best place to have Indian/Nepali cuisine with friends and family in Oxfordshire. Easily accessible by bus from Oxford and just on the main road. The owner was very cordial and humble which was an extra plus. Would love to visit again.
