The main course was unfortunately a bit bland based on my usual expectation from Indian restaurants, even after I asked for it to be spicy. My starter of prawn was great, my Prawn karai for main, although being a chef's recommendation, had prawns that were unfortunately overdone and the karai was somewhat bland. I must say my friend's lamb was very lovely and seasoned. Don't hesitate to order the Mango Lassi. it is one of the best I have tasted in my life. Regarding the mak , maybe it was a rare occurrence but the experience was average.

Costs are too high for such dishes. Just a few months ago, the regular tikka massala used to cost 9€. Now it costs almost 13€. Whose Luxury and Fortune are we paying here?
Gurkha São Bento • Owner
Dear R S, Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We value all customer input as it helps us improve our service and offerings. Regarding your comments on pricing, we'd like to clarify that our prices are clearly listed on our menu to ensure transparency. Our Tikka Masala, which you mentioned, is prepared with a rich cashew sauce, using high-quality ingredients that contribute to its authentic flavor. The price for this dish has remained the same for the last two years, reflecting the consistent quality and effort that goes into preparing each dish. It's also important to note that you received a 30% discount on your bill during your visit, which we offer to provide even greater value to our customers. We aim to provide not only delicious food but also a respectful and enjoyable dining experience for everyone. We appreciate your understanding and hope to have the opportunity to serve you again in the future. Warm regards, Krishna Hamal Manager, Gurkha

It is a nice restaurant with good food. What is annoying is that there are contantly foodrunners standing in front of the restaurant waiting for their food that needs to be delivered. Not just one, many and all the time. The waiters of the restaurant bring the food outside. Because it is a small restaurant this is annoying and unpleasant.
