I’ve been meaning to try a Nepalese Restaurant for a while, so when I was walking along Victoria Street and came across this place I decided that I would do just that. However, as it turns out, there is little difference between Nepalese and Indian food, not that that is a bad thing because I do love my vindaloo(even if it is only because I am a big Red Dwarf fan). What I did discover though is that when you are the only person in the restaurant you end up getting really pampered, which is not necessarily a bad thing, though it can be a little annoying when somebody comes up to you every five minutes to ask if your are enjoying your meal. Still, I did quite like the place, and it certainly has a nice atmosphere.

This is probably my favourite restaurant in the universe. It’s a little more expensive than some of the other local Indian/Nepalese restaurants, but it’s well worth the extra price. The ingredients are consistently fresh and the meals well prepared and presented. The staff are warm and friendly and you always feel welcome. The paneer dishes are my favourites but basically everything is good. In almost ten years I’ve never had a bad meal there.

This place is great! I’m deducting one star only because I think it’s a bit spendy but the food is delicious and tasty. I’ve been several times, BYO in tote to cut down on cost. The goat curry(with bone) is my fave on the menu! If I’m in North Melbourne, I’ll definitely go back :)

This isn’t the bargain discovery it once was. Yes, once upon a time — well not all that long ago — you could pull up a seat at Kathmandu Cottage and order whatever you liked from the menu, as well as a bottle of wine, knowing you didn’t have to worry at all about the bill. Those days are gone, but the food at Kathmandu remains some of the best South Asian food around these parts. It’s a white-tablecloth joint but with a casual, relaxed atmosphere and gentle service. Being on the outside corner of Victoria and Errol Sts, it’s in a reasonably quiet location, which also makes dining in a leisurely event. For those who don’t know what Indian-Nepalese food is like, at Kathmandu it’s basically Indian with a few dishes offering different spices. You can still get your korma, madras and vindaloo, as well as naan breads. Perhaps that’s one of the only faults of this place: unlike other Nepalese restaurants I’ve been to, they don’t offer more unique Nepalese dishes. What they do offer is thick and rich curries, soft, fresh breads — and enough of both that my friends and I usually order one less meal than we have people. The meat and seafood dishes are up around $ 20, veg at about $ 15.
