"Gurkha Village is a well-established restaurant located very close to Oxford. The staff is respectful and attentive to customers' needs, and the service time is excellent. Although the food may not be traditionally Nepali, as it includes more than just the typical Dhal, Bhat, and Takari, the meals are generally very good with generous portions. Most of the dishes were of good quality, except for the Nan bread. It would be nice to see some new menu options and daily specials added to enhance the dining experience. Overall, Gurkha Village is a standout Indian restaurant in the Oxford area that is definitely worth a visit. Thank you."

"Looking for somewhere for a pitstop to break up a 160 mile journey home, not wanting to run the gauntlet of motorway services, our 3rd attempt was the Red Lion and boy oh boy was it 3rd time lucky!!! We both ordered a chicken korma. It arrived quickly and was huge. It was made fresh to order and quite possibly 1 of the best curries I have ever had. The staff were friendly and very welcoming. I would 100% recommend eating here though if it was local to me I would definitely need bigger jeans!!!!! Thankyou everyone for a wonderful meal and warm welcome. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5"

"My other half and I had an evening meal here, which was simply the best meal out we’ve had in a long, long time. My OH had a chicken satay starter fabulous. Not too sweet, had real live bits of peanut in the sauce, and came accompanied by cucumber and salad. For mains, I had flat iron steak with pepper sauce, peppers, courgette, roast garlic and perfect chunky chips (think that was it). It was cooked to perfection and such a relief to find a pub that doesn’t roll out an overcooked steak with the ubiquitous onion rings, half a tomato, mushroom/s and skinny chips. The OH had salmon, which came with crushed new potatoes and lots of nice veg none of which he can remember this morning. Hey ho. Dessert for each of us was a pavlova with whipped cream, zingy lemon curd, raspberries and strawberries. This was just as fabulous as everything else. So impressed. Every dish was artfully presented, the flavours considered and the cooking absolutely spot on. Not a soggy vegetable in sight. Lovely people, too, our waiter was a smiley gentleman from Turkey and the chef and (we believe, although this is an assumption) his wife, who incidentally brought the food out themselves (nice touch), were Kiwis. Altogether a lovely experience and one that I recommend wholeheartedly to others."

"The food in this restaurant is really tasty and the portion was justified for the slightly pricey side. In my opinion, the quality and taste is better than most of the restaurant I had visited in London China town. The ambiance was pleasing and parking was easy. The downside to this restaurant is probably one or two of the waiting staff/ waiters/waitress. They are quite rude and resembles the waiters or waitress from New York China town. Being a restaurant serving some Malaysian dishes like the Kung Po chicken, and Kang kong (water spinach) balacan, I asked the waitress if they have “salted fish fried rice”, only to be rudely told that this is England and there is no such food as Salted fish Fried rice. That lady was really rude and don’t know her place. I then told her that we can get salted fish fried rice in Colindale London and even in Reindeer Cafe in Cricklewood. I often wonder why these service orientated business people ca be so naive and rude. sigh. Given the chance again if I am visiting area around Oxford, I will definitely visit this establishment, but will keep my fingers crossed on not meeting rude waitress ."
