The food was beautifully balanced, it wasn't very spicy but was nice. My friend and I both had vegetarian dishes and they were very hearty with many vegetables and good quality sauces. The cheese naan was to die for, very oily but tastes amazing. I might come back here. The food was good but there are plenty of beautiful places in and around semaphore road that are competing with this place. It is the best Nepalese place I have tried in Semaphore so far though.
My original introduction to Nepalese food was at another, more fancy restaurant in North Adelaide,…read moreand I really didn't like it much. A friend suggested I try Journey to Everest, and I must say that as a result of their excellent recommendation, I am now a convert to Nepalese food. In my view, it is Indian cuisine's sleeker sister. This restaurant offers not a large or lavish dining area, but one that punches above its weight. The surrounds are functional, and the service is OK, the food however is another story. Nepalese food appears to be less oily and lighter than its Indian counterpart, and that allows you to enjoy the flavour more fully. My favourite on their menu is the Madagascar Duck, a sublime feast of duck legs and a well chosen and cooked medley of vegetables in a curry sauce. No rice needed! Journey to Everest has now become a regular fixture for every journey to Semaphore!

The atmosphere is relaxed and the earthy ochre colour scheme ensures everything blends beautifully, it's designed for comfort inside and outside the body. Food is not only meant for nutrition but is a visual feast aswell, if it looks good then more often than not it will taste good and it's done to perfection here. Dumplings are a hearty tradition in many cultures and it's no different here, much like in preparation to what's to come: 'watch out lips, watch out tongue, watch out tummy, here it comes'! And it just keeps coming with delicious, glorious food...wish I had my own chef. Good food is few and far between and this place is ranked up the top of my list for places to book.

The charcoal clay oven chicken is delicious, I highly recommend. They have a lovely mix of Indian, Chinese and Tibetan, and what I appreciate most is that they go light on the spices. I'm a huge wuss when it comes to spice and I feel like I'm missing out on a lot of wonderful Asian dishes because I can only handle mild. Namaste has all of the unusual flavours and great taste without turning your body into a sweat lodge. The restaurant is in a lovely cottage, and they have open fires burning in winter and a busy outside area for summer. The service is usually excellent but the last time we went I was disappointed that our waitress seemed to forget us and we had to wait a long time for drinks. This was made up for by our host however, who gave us a complimentary glass of wine because of the wait. Book ahead because this place is majorly popular with the Eastern elite and fills up quick. Note: Lunch is by appointment only and it has to be a group of 12 or more. I recommend this place for dates: it's a romantic setting and hand holding throughout the meal is a must.
Fab little place!

Situated in an unassuming shopping block, only a couple of doors down from one of the best Chinese places in town, Zafran Curry Delights is one of my absolute favourite take away places. And they are open until 10.30pm for your after hours noms. By the time you phone in your order, put pants on and drive there your food is ready!! As creatures of habit (and mediocre cheap skates) we tend to order the 'you and me' deal, which comfortably feeds myself and my garbage-desposal-stomached partner for dinner *plus* lunch the next day. Included for the low price of thirty five bucks you get two mains, a large rice, 2 plain naan, a couple of pappadams and either a serve of chicken tikka or sheekh kebab. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD CHOOSE THE TIKKA!! Of all the things that have been done to chicken this is by far my favourite, it's juicy and tasty and I could eat a bucket of it. Our usual mains are the beef vindaloo, which they will make extra spicy for you if you ask, and the chicken tikka marsala (which does have a small surcharge if you're getting the meal deal). Eat here. That's about it.
Amazing!! And I…read moreagree with the review underneath, best Chinese just down the road! I've had veg and beef dishes from here and they are to die for! My partner gets the vindaloo and he raves and raves about it. The meat is always so tender and never over cooked. A large rice is more than enough and plenty leftover the next day for lunch! The naan is the best naan I've ever eaten! I love it!! They have changed their name to namaste curry delight now (well on eat now anyway) Do it! You won't regret it!

Over the past three years I have been a regular diner at this family run restaurant…read more Kevin Ponniah and his wife Tanny have been very welcoming every time I visited their restaurant - and it was too many to count! This authentic Thai restaurant has a great casual atmosphere which is enhanced by the friendly team of attentive waiting staff. The menu is well balanced and gives the customer great choices of authentic Thai dishes ranging from wok stir fries, noodle dishes and salads to traditional curries. The entrees I have tried are all exceptional - Pandan Chicken, Spring Rolls, Dim Sims, Thai Fish Cakes and Money Bags. I recommend you try the Pandan Chicken for its amazing flavour of spices. The Money Bags were also a pleasant surprise - especially as these are normally not a favourite of mine. The main dishes I have sampled were absolutely the best in Adelaide! I absolutely loved the Masaman Beef Curry and wish I could find one as good as this in Sydney. I highly recommend that you try this on your next visit. Other dishes to definitely try are the Thai Basil Chicken (Hot), Thai Garlic Prawns and Pud Thai Tu Noodles. In Thais' signature dish is the Moreton Bay Bugs - tails tossed with fresh vegetables in their own special Thai chilli sauce. The sumptuous and delicately flavoured Moreton Bay Bug tails were cooked perfectly and presented in ready to eat bite sized portions. No need for you to get your fingers dirty here. The flesh falls away from the shell easily and is sautéed with all the exotic flavours of the special chilli sauce. This is mixed with various vegetables. My favourite cold main is the Thai Spinach salad - perfect for those hot Adelaide Summer nights. Desserts - I always craved the Banana Fritters with the delicious caramel sauce. Sometimes this was not always available to my disappointment, but if you are able to sample it, do try it for yourself! , the sauce melts Otherwise I always opted for a Caramel Pecan muffin. When lightly heated the sauce oozes nicely over the cake. Yummy! The restaurant also opens for breakfast from 8:30am to11:30am with many breakfast options. I tried the Thai Omelette, which was a great breakfast choice. Newly added choices that I want to try are Smoked Norwegian Salmon, French Brioche Toast or the Pan Fried Duck Eggs. I really miss not being able to pop down to In Thais since moving to Sydney, but I can't wait to come back to your wonderful restaurant when next I am in Adelaide.

The dishes are a decent serving size and the staff are generally quite nice. Pricing is on par with what you would expect. The food quality is good and there are a lot of flavors. Vegetables are generally pretty fresh which is also a positive. The steak is flavorsome however seasoning and sauces on some dishes can sometimes be a bit bland for my taste. The store is well positioned in the heart of McLaren Vale by the caravan park and is good for a quick dinner. Meals are $11 to $16. Personal favorites from the menu are Pork ribs in plum sauce, sizzling pepper chicken, satay chicken and lemon chicken. Rice is sold separately for $3 and is generally nice fluffy. Medium serves are not that much more pricey.

It features good, solid value, simple chinese dishes done really well. I've always said the true test for a Chinese restaurant is how many Chinese people you find eating there - Pagoda is consistently filled with Chinese clientelle enjoying the food. There's a little bonus at lunchtime, too, a cheaper takeaway menu featuring a half serve of your chosen dish with fried rice. Decor - well, it's a chinese restaurant. It looks like a chinese restaurant - but then, seriously, you're going there for the food. :) My personal favourites are the ginger mushroom fish, and their combination omelette is to die for.

Right, now to the food...they have a great range of options that cater for most dietary requirements. My favourite dish of the whole meal would have had to have been the Thai Wafer, but let me tell you, one was definitely not enough of these absolutely delicious little "First Bite" options. I would have been so very happy with an entire plateful of these tasty, crispy rice wafers stuffed with shredded chicken breast, coconut and Thai herb salad. In fact, all of the food had great clean and fresh flavours throughout. I will be returning very soon because I can't wait for an entire plate of those super yummy Thai Wafers to get in my belly; they will make the perfect after work snack on the way home from an early shift.
