"We visited around 1:30 PM on a Friday, and while the restaurant was quiet, the bar had quite a few patrons. We received a warm welcome from our Nepalese host and were seated at our table in the cozy restaurant, which was pleasantly warm (especially appreciated in November). The lunch menu was offered, and there’s a separate one for the evening. Our drink orders were taken promptly—a large bottle of Gurkha beer and a wine with lemonade. We chose to start with handmade noodles that were accompanied by two spicy sauces. And when I say spicy, I mean they really packed a punch! For our main courses, we opted for a lamb dish and a goat curry, both served with the fluffiest, simplest rice I’ve ever tasted. Both curries were exceptional—rich in flavor and generously portioned with meat. The lunchtime servings were not enormous, but just enough to satisfy our appetites. For dessert, we shared the banana fritters. They served us four portions, and we were delighted to share this lovely treat. The total bill was around £30, including drinks. Overall, we enjoyed a pleasant experience with fast and polite service. The ambiance was charming and clean, albeit a bit dated, and the food was delicious and served at a good temperature, offering excellent value for money. The pub also has good parking and clean, easily accessible restrooms. My recommendations: definitely try the Gurkha beer, which is crisp and has a nice hoppy flavor. And don’t skip dessert—it would be a shame to miss it!"

Me and my partner visited here on a date night and loved it. The food was delicious and very well priced. It's not a fancy looking place which didn't bother us as the food was so good. The waiter was very lovely too.

The restaurant has a cozy atmosphere and a wonderfully welcoming environment. The food is authentic Nepalese, and the service is spot-on! I spent quite a bit of time enjoying goat curry and sipping Gurkha beer while watching the Champions League on a Wednesday, after a game of pool. I hope to return one day!

Inside, the restaurant is spotless—scrubbed to perfection. The new owners, who might be Gurkha soldiers, have clearly prepared the space with great care; everything shines. We were greeted by a very friendly staff and seated promptly. Our drinks came quickly, and they were ice-cold, fresh, and sparkling—absolutely delicious. The menu isn’t overwhelming with complicated dish names, but it offers a great variety without being too limited. You can choose your preferred heat level, allowing you to enjoy the authentic Nepali flavors without getting overpowered by spiciness. As for the starters—wow! We tried chicken momo, chili chicken, and potatoes, and I have to say we were blown away. Each d... Visualizza piatti

"Carluccios was my first dining experience out following I was impressed by the measures put in place by the team and how well these were adhered to. I felt completely at ease throughout my meal, staff wore face masks, tables were socially distanced, staff...were visibly washing their hands/using hand sanitiser throughout and the cleanliness of the restaurant was unmatched. It was reassuring to see these protocols in place during these uncertain times. The staff really went above and beyond to deliver the authentic Carluccio’s experience despite the current challenges! My experience was amazing from beginning until end. I was greeted by management at the door and by the wonderful bar team, Gemma and Emma, who made me feel welcomed with their friendly greetings as I shown to my table. I was then greeted by my amazing waitress Sasina, who is an absolute credit to the team! She was so friendly and bubbly, very attentive to our needs and delivered an overall wonderful experience! Our drinks order was taken promptly, we were asked if we had any allergies (very impressive and offered bread and olives to start off with. Once our drinks arrived, our food order was taken quickly without any hassle. Sasina suggested the lasagna for my main with a side of the garlic and rosemary roast potatoes. Her suggestions were superb! Sasina was also very mindful of the fact my guest was a vegetarian, making sure to point out all the vegetarian options (and even went out of her way to get some vegetarian Parmesan cheese Our food came promptly and cannot be faulted. It tasted incredible (big thanks to the amazing chefs We had the garlic focaccia with cheese, tomato bruschetta and calamari to start which was delicious. The calamari is the best I have ever had! And for mains, we had the lasagna and the spinach and ricotta ravioli (which the lovely Sasina was able to change the usual sauce to a tomato one with a side of garlic and rosemary roast potatoes. Our meal was phenomenal and the service was even better! My mother and I will be returning to dine with the amazing team at Carluccios without a doubt! Overall, the restaurant had a lovely, welcoming ambiance. All of the staff were smiley and friendly and all made a point of saying goodbye to us as we left the restaurant. I look forward to coming back and trying more of the mouth-watering new menu! Thank you all for a terrific experience!"
