Very tasty. Served with rice in separate bowl so you can add rice as you wish. Very convenient when I took half home as I usually do, I just threw rest of rice in serving bowl and mixed into sauce. Prompt service, we were never waiting. read more

Who knew a little gem hidden in the corner of a Gunbarrel shopping center would contain the best Indian food I've ever had (or at least top two - there's this other place in Broomfield that's pretty amazing too). Nonetheless, this place rocks. I've been there twice now and fell hard for their Korma. First time was veggie korma. So damn good. Second time, the chicken korma. Even better. The taste is delicious, but more. There's something to it that you can't quite put a finger on, a complexity that I'm under the impression comes with hard work and a lot of authentic spices. I've only gone for lunch, and their lunch deal rocks. It's under $10 for a cute metal tray loaded with rice, the main course, a fried onion crunchy, little delicious potato cakes and some great sauces. Definitely a great amount to fill a hungry human, but no too much to disable. The chef, Manni (and owner I believe) came out each time with friendly smile and was genuinely interested in making sure we were enjoying our meal. He even offered the mega spice option. I told him not to hold back and make it as spicy as possible. To my pleasant surprise he followed through and made a killer spicy korma (most places hold back because of my pasty complexion). To his surprise I was able to scarf it down, albeit with some sweat dripping from my face. Very glad to come here and look forward to my next visit. It was also great to see the chef was genuinely thrilled with me and my lunch partners satisfaction. Good spot. read more

This was hands down the best tikka masala I've had in Colorado. So delicious. Will order here again. Edit: WE CAME BACK THE SAME DAY. We ordered for lunch and dinner during the COVID distancing and it was so amazing. Also, they're very diligent about cleanliness at this restaurant and are taking very precaution. Can not recommend more. read more

A friend introduced me to Gurkhas this week, and it was a wonderful luncheon experience. The restaurant features authentic Nepali and Indian cuisine, and the lunch combinations offered are really great. The spicy dishes are rated one to five, and I like four which is more than medium spicy which I enjoy. The prices are most reasonable, and you'll find dishes you may not have tried yet. I highly recommend it. The staff is wonderful, friendly, and most helpful. Great place to eat and relax. Pay them a visit. read more

We have ordered here many times before. Normally it's pretty good. I ordered the chicken thukpa it was not very good basically was like a spaghetti with some chicken in it with a not flavorful broth. We also ordered eggplant masala and the portions are tiny and flavor was ok! I was tempted to call for a refund. They seem pretty proud of there prices for what we paid for. read more

The food is absolutely fantastic here. The saag paneer and tikka masala are incredible and the various naans made in house are amazing. The only draw backs are that the menu is incredibly expensive and the portions are very small for what you pay for. read more

Such great Indian food. The chicken tikka masala is always a hit!

4 mile delivery radius? Come. On. The worst part is you don't find out until the very end of your order. That's like not mentioning on your tinder profile that you only have one eye. read more

What a wonderful find in Longmont! Absolutely delicious food made quickly but with great care!

Not only is the food outstanding but also very reasonable in price! I have been to Gurkhas twice during their lunch hour and have been very impressed both times with my order! I have been on the hunt for great Indian food in the Niwot / Longmont area where I work and this will be my new go-to spot! Friendly Staff & Great Food! read more

I've only had takeout from here - the service is always friendly and the food is hot but it's so bland. I LOVE Indian food because of the complexity of flavors - the spices - and this food is just bland and disappointing. read more

I ordered takeout... I only got two little containers of chutney with my two entrees and three servings of naan. The chilli momo was alright, but the korma (my absolute FAVORITE Indian dish) had no flavor and tasted almost like bland Mac and cheese. After the sauce was done doing whatever that was in my mouth, I tasted the meat. It did not taste seasoned either. I was probably the most dissatisfied with this Indian takeout than I have ever been in my life. I kept the naan, but threw the rest of the korma away---- I never do that with Indian food (I'm usually scraping the last bit out of the container). That's it. read more

I'm not a connoisseur of Indian restaurants, but I really like Gurkhas. Everything I've tried tastes great. The staff has always been friendly and helpful, and the kitchen has always been quick. They definitely cook stuff on the spicy side; even if you like hot things I'd stick with medium for your first go. read more

Absolutely fantastic food and service! The head chef, Manny, is very accommodating and talented. I had the coconut curry with shrimp and garlic naan - very tasty. The only thing I regret is having a total brain fart when calculating the tip and giving about half the amount I meant to... Y por eso lo siento mucho mi amigo Manny! read more

Gurkhas Restaurant - Yum! - Indian Near Me - Longmont, Colorado

Great flavors, definitely worth trying, they have a solid menu with a wide variety of Indian foods. They are conservative when they add spice to your food. I had lamb, it had good flavor, perhaps cooked longer than I would have done, but I would go back for the dish again. read more

While staying at the Niwot Inn a few minutes away, my hubby and I were craving some Indian food. Gurkha's hit the spot! Garlic naan, veggie samosas, chicken tikka masala, and a spicy lamb dish. All were excellent and reasonably priced. Service was also fast and friendly. While the interior and ambiance are nothing special, Gurkha's scratched our itch for fast Indian fare. read more

Great Indian food . Best in Longmont. I love Saag. Every menu that I order are great . Staff are friendly and nice . Highly recommended.

The best Indian food I've ever had. Hands down! My husband went here for dinner with his coworkers and brought some tikka saag back. I was hooked. I had to have more. I had it the next day and the day after that. Yes that good! read more

I have no idea how this place has so many stars. The absolute worse meal. The korma was FLAVORLESS, the somosas were microwaved, even the rice was bad. read more

best Indian Nepali restaurant in town! Lunch for $8.99 and for vegetarian only $7.99. The food is super good, I would definitely recommend this over any other Indian Nepali restaurant in town. read more

Small but adorable. Food is PERFECT!!!!! Recommend to everyone I know. Vegan, vegetarian, meat and good drinks. Spicy is actually spicy and nothing is weighed down with grease. Light, clean, flavorful, great service. read more

Curry shrimp was good, I got #2 spicy and it was just right. The server did warn us that their spicy is spicier than most (bf got a 3 and it was too spicy for him). We also got some pork dumplings to start, not my favorite so I only ate a few. Service was good, food good, price a little high for what you get. My curry was served with long grain white rice. We also ordered garlic naan this was amazing! Coke comes in a can so no free refills for you soda junkies out there ;) read more

Seriously good food for Indian-food fanatics. We are disappointed that we didn't discover it sooner. Amazing samosas, great sauces and for vegetarians, an amazing selection. Now it's our regular stop for Indian food. Never disappointing. read more

Absolutely try this place if you're in the area and want Indian food. They had an extensive menu with lots of vegetarian options and even a kids section. We had the matter paneer and chicken tikka masala and both were delicious! We even ordered some takeout for the weekend. Servers were responsive, friendly and made sure our water glasses were always filled. We landed here on a whim and we will definitely be back! read more

These guys are willing to make most dishes vegan. Their place is clean and friendly. I've been there 4 times and the food is fresh and the service is consistently good. I don't tolerate spicy real well and found their medium heat to be way to hot, to the point of overpowering the natural flavor of the food. Mild is perfect to enjoy all the flavors fused together. I highly recommend this place, wish it wasn't located in the just like every other plaza in america but thats a different whine. read more

Just had the best tofu saag, buttered naan, chai, and rice pudding at Gurkhas. Service was amazing. Fresh, fast, authentic.

This rating is on food and service alone, which were both fantastic. It's in a strip mall and the ambiance is not great inside the restaurant. But the food I had was very tasty and fresh. I had vegetable samosas as an appetizer, and the coconut curry with chicken. Both were awesome. read more

Delicious food & really great service! The garlic naan went perfect with the Chicken Tikka Masala. I love spice, so next time I'll order the Superman hot vs the 5. Highly recommend trying Gurkhas for yourself. read more

I wish I knew the names of the things I ate at Gurkhas because I think that would really improve my review. But, I don't and so we'll have to go with descriptions and hopefully some of you out there will understand me. First of all the restaurant itself is casually nice - really clean with lots of table of varying size so that when we entered with a group of 8 there was already a table set that was big enough for us. The staff, too, are a nice group. They were available without being overly obnoxiously attentive, which is sometimes a hard mix to find. I had the buffet which carried quite a few options - plenty for vegetarians and omnivores alike. Some of my favorites were the cauliflower in some sort of sauce, these little potato pancake things that were a bit spicy, a chickpea dish, and the Daal. (Hey! Look at that! I did know the name of one thing.) But, everything I ate was enjoyable. The one strange thing to me was that we got our silverware at the buffet, but they never gave us full sized napkins. So, we all used cocktail napkins that the server provided. I mean, I know they gave us the cocktail napkins, but those don't really cover my lap and I tend to be a messy eater so I need protection for my dresses. And that protection usually means regular sized napkins. read more

Finding flavorful and delicious Indian food had been a huge challenge for me when I moved to the Boulder area from Cincinnati 3 years ago (I know, I know: Cincinnati seems an unlikely city for amazing Indian cuisine, but trust me - soooo many fantastic restaurants) -- that is, until we stumbled upon Gurkhas. We tried them all, too! Tandoori Grill, Himalayas, Taj, Dushanbe Tea House, Royal Peacock (now India Clay Oven), Sherpa's, Maharaja... there were probably more! We were constantly left unsatisfied due to the lack of spice and flavor in our dishes. I know I'll return to a restaurant if they have delicious matar paneer and garlic naan. Probably not the best way to judge a restaurant; certainly not the most fair and well-rounded criteria, but there you go. Matar paneer is one of the loves of my life. Thankfully, Gurkhas passed the test. I was hooked from the first bite (still not as delicious as my favorite places in Cincinnati, but close!) I typically order takeout from Gurkhas, which on average takes them about 30 minutes to get to the front counter. I consider myself a regular, placing orders nearly once a week. The staff are quite friendly. They know what I'm going to order as soon as I tell them who is calling and I am always greeted with friendly smiles and polite, interesting conversation. My only complaint is that they have taken matar paneer off their menu! Can you believe that?! I couldn't! Saddest day of my life. Ever! Thank goodness they still let me order it off-menu, but the price was raised a few bucks. :( A bummer for someone who frequents their business. Sigh. Oh well... could be worse, I suppose! read more

This is my favorite Indian place in Boulder and even beats Kathmandu on a few items. It is tucked back in the corner of the office park so I hope more people find out about this place. It does steady lunch business but always seems empty at dinner. My wife and I get it to go a lot for dinner and it is perfect everytime. The chicken saag was one of the best things I have ever had. They also have the best chicken tikka masala HANDS DOWN. read more

I was walking by and nothing was open, I stumbled upon this place and I'm glad I did. It truly surprised by the quality and the service. Every dish I had was immaculately prepared and the taste was second to none. Definitely a diamond in the rough. It's one of the few times I've finished a meal far in excess and still wanted more, I'm not sure what the put in the food but it's definitely addictive. I'll definitely be back here as soon as possible. read more

My husband and I recently moved to the Gunbarrel area and have eaten here twice so far. I was hesitant because of some of the reviews, but since it is next to the gym we decided to give it a try. Our first time we ate in the restaurant and I'd give it 4.5 stars for our experience. The food was very good and we were both very happy. Service was a bit slow considering how few people were there, but it was fine as we were not in a hurry. The second time around, we got our food to go. We both got the tika saag with chicken since it was so amazingly good the first time we came in. Our food was ready on time and that was fine. But, the food didn't taste quite as good as it had before and my chicken was a little dry. It was still good, just not what we were expecting based on our first experience. We will go again, though, I'm sure. read more

I'm going to commit a sin. I'm going to rate this place based solely on their buffet. I know what you're thinking, and you're right. You can't do that Cannon! Buffet food is always worse than the real thing. It's like movie sequels (or prequels). Nevertheless, I am going to go ahead and give it a big fat yuck. Normally I can find something I like on a buffet. This time I struggled just to get full. The service was terrible, the price was horrid. Even their naan sucked. How do you screw up naan? Grocery stores don't screw up naan. read more

Nice casual place to check out when you want a simple but good Indian lunch buffet. Located in a shopping center near Gunbarrel, Gurkhas offers a spacious and well it ambience during your meal. The food was great and a lot of the dishes were vegan except for the chicken dishes. They had the common ones, Lentil Dal, Curry vegetables, Samosas, and Penkora (probably misspelled) were all delicious. They also had rice and lo mein type noodles. Unfortunately the dessert, salad, and condiment section were not labelled at all- not sure why. They had a carrot dessert, Khir, and Gulab Jamen. They also had different chutneys, and some basic salad. Staff was good about taking our plates and re-filling water. They also bring each table a bowl full of naan. Like I said, simple but serves all the basic Indian food craving needs, and I would go back again. read more

Top tier indian food. I've had a lot of indian food and I've never had samosa chat before, luckily I had it here and it was in.cred.i.ble. Since then, I've tried to order that dish at other indian restaurants and it hasn't been half as good as it was here. Everything else had well developed flavors and excellent execution too, so we look forward to coming back! read more

Ordered delivery and it came at a reasonable time. I tried the goat curry with rice which was decent. The mango milkshake was extremely sweet... even for me who has a sweet tooth. Also had rice pudding which was reasonable. Overall decent when I'm feeling Indian food. I'll have to try the Nepalese food next time. read more

Gurkhas Restaurant - Goat curry over rice. Yum - Indian Near Me - Longmont, Colorado

I was served an seated the moment I walked in the door. My young waiter was very sweet and showed me the buffet table and explained what was in it, since I was knew to this type of food. He checked on me several times, really good service. The food was pretty good, only a couple pieces I got was a tad spicy but good. The salad dressing I chose looked interesting but didn't really care for it, so I'll just have to try a different one during my next trip. I will wear a sweater on my next trip I was kinda cold, but cold by nature. Buy everyone else seemed to not be cold. Lol. I will be back. read more

I went to eat here on a Saturday night, with my 4 year old. I had the vegetable momo (I am vegan) and it was very tasty. Just wish it had a bit more sauce. My son is not vegan and he had a meal from the children's menu, sweet and sour chicken, and mango lassi. We both ate every bite and the server was very attentive. I will certainly eat there again to try something else from the menu. Just wish they had dosa. read more

Gurkhas is a wonderful little restaurant on the outskirts of Boulder. It was the restaurant of choice for the Boulder School of massage to host lunch for six Yelpers who attended a tour of the school. We all had the lunch buffet and it was fun to watch fellow Yelpers fill their plates. It made me realize how different we really are when it comes to food choices. Several of us went with the all vegetarian choices which also included delicious fresh green beans in garlic, some of us went halfsies/meat and veg., and some went with an almost all meat selection. And I imagine everyone of us was happy with our choices. My favorites were the green beans, saag, and sweet potato pakora. I had refreshing iced chai and thoroughly enjoyed dipping the papadams in the tamarind and mint sauces with Harmony. Their sauces are top notch. The other pluses for Gurkhas are a clean, nice interior and an attentive staff. I could see them circling around to check our table but we were all eating, happy, and had everything we needed so they did not bother us too much. I can see where Gurkhas is a great addition to the Gunbarrel area. read more
