After reviewing their website and menu, a group of friends visiting from interstate were looking forward to Friday night dinner. The menu was about 60% aligned with what is on the website. The goat curry, while flavoursome, was very gristly, as was the buffalo steak. The duck meat in the red duck curry was under cooked and chewy. It was a quiet evening. With only 3 other tables to serve the kitchen seemed quite disorganised, with one of our guests needing to remind the kitchen we had ordered the buffalo steak, after waiting over 20 minutes after eating the other dishes. The staff were friendly. It definitely has potential, but unless the quality of the food is improved I don't see this restaurant becoming a mainstay of Melbourne. A little disappointing.

A lovely new modern Nepalese restaurant. Not sure kingfish crudo is particularly Nepalese but it was delicious! And loved the other dishes we had. The service was a little on the over-attentive side but we made sure they were provided constructive feedback. Overall, a great experience.
