Really great place if you are in the mood for a spicey change to Irish fare.
Lovely, clean, modern and well lit establishment. Comfortable seating and a super friendly staff. The family are Nepalese in origin and offer speciality curries from their home and the usual options seen in Indian restaurants. I had the Special Kathmandu Curry my partner had the Himalayan Curry. Both were excellent. The portion sizes were very adequate. Our host confided that the Himalayan Curry is their best offering in his opinion!
Great, moderately priced, enjoyable evening.
Best meal we have had in Ireland/northern Ireland! Would recommend to anyone and come often if we lived here! Ordered the chicken wing appetizer which came with four small wings, Himalayan curry and Balti.
What a wonderful experience at Kathmandu Kitchen! Excellent service! Our wait staff was able to guide us to superb selections that we thoroughly enjoyed.! The food is the best Himalayan/Nepalese I've ever had. Highly recommend visiting Kathmandu Kitchen if your in town and want a great tome with great food!
Have visited here several times and always enjoy my dining experience. Excellent service always. The staff are very attentive and have great knowledge about the menu and always help by recommending if you aren't too sure.
We were dining with a young baby yesterday and lovely to be offered highchair without having to ask for it.
The toliets are clean and spacious.
I throughly enjoyed my meal!
We came, a party of 16 or so, and the wonderful (presumed) owner of the establishment took very good care of us. He was ever helpful, considerate, and attentive. Our food came in a timely manner and was all as ordered, hot, and delicious.
For myself particularly, I was immensely impressed at the care taken for my vegan diet. The owner not only modified a dish for me, but told me what not to get so as to avoid dairy. 5/5 in all categories.
The best meal in Belfast by far. Great food, great atmosphere and entertaining people. We were blown away by how efficient the staff were and the maitre d was exceptionally friendly. My partner described his meal as orgasmic and my tastebuds are very much in agreement. If, like us, you only visit one restaurant in Belfast, make it the Kathmandu Kitchen.
Went here twice during my 7 days in Belfast. Everything I tried was amazing. First time I went, we were a group of 4, I had the Nepalese Curry with chicken which was delicious. I also got to sample some of my friend's dish, he got the Himalayan Curry which was also delicious. The waiters asked our preference for spice level of the curry and really catered to our specifications. Rather just the mild, medium, or hot, we picked one of those and then we were able to specify how spicy within those options. I asked for spicy and then asked for a medium-high level, and it was perfect. My friend wanted his really spicy and he agreed that he got it exactly how he wanted it. The second time I got the Tikka Masala and it was one of the best dishes I've ever had, a much sweeter sauce then I usually think of but so so delicious. Wait staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Will definitely visit anytime I'm in Belfast and would recommend to anyone visiting.
Made a trip into town specifically to try this new Nepalese restaurant on Botanic. I'm a fan of Indian food, but I'm always looking for something different. Nepalese seemed interesting, so I thought I'd try it. 'Kathmandu Kitchen' occupies the premises that formerly housed the Quiznos sub shop on Botanic Avenue, handy for both the city centre and the University Quarter. The decor and ambience of the restaurant is pretty typical of any Indian, only they play Buddhist music rather than the usual Bollywood style.
The food was fantastic. A really good, original menu. It had all the usual Indian favourites, but for me the highlight was the extensive list of Nepalese dishes that you don't get in your normal high street curry house. There is also a large vegetarian menu. Both the starters and main courses we had were fantastic - the vegetarian 'Nepalese platter' on the starters menu was a highlight. For vegetarians, a lot of the curries include sheep's cheese which is a welcome change from the microwaved vegetables found in most places. We didn't have wine with our meal, but there seemed to be a good selection and the prices looked reasonable to me.
I was very pleased with my experience at 'Kathmandu Kitchen', it's the sort of place Belfast needs - something a bit different. It was also packed, which is good to see. The service was good, we never felt forgotten or ignored, and it wasn't rushed. I'll definitely be back.

Excellent service - Bishal (the owner's son) is well schooled in customer service - pleasant and professional demeanor.
The owner is delightful, very eager to help you find the perfect dish for you.
Food is delicious, we had both Nepalese and Indian dishes.
The best Indian food we have had in a long time. Very reasonable priced.
Awesome food and really good staff! Would go back there again! Veg and non veg both options are delicious!
Bites of India Botanic in Belfast offers a cozy dining experience with delicious, authentic Indian cuisine. Some diners may find the portion sizes to be on the smaller side, requiring the need to order additional rice or bread. Despite this, the restaurant's attentive staff and welcoming atmosphere make it a lovely spot to savor Indian flavors in Belfast, making Bites of India Botanic a great choice for those craving authentic Indian cuisine.
A bite of India in Belfast. Stuck to a vegetarian fare so can't comment on the non vegetarian dishes. In fact I sampled only the South Indian dishes. Samosas were great and so was the idli. Medu wadas were a bit chewy, not crisp pretty much below par. Dosa was alright. The chutneys and sambar were decent. So was the complimentary papad . Slightly priced on the higher side but alright. They have some discounts running most of the times as well .
We had chicken biryani, lamb biryani palak paneer and naan garlic. All are delicious. So glad to find this halal restaurant quite close to the Queens university. They give 10% discount when you pay cash.
Been here 4 th time since the khathmandu
And every thing is very tasty and with great service
My wife and I went out for a dinner after several months and therefore it had to be good and this new branch of Bites of India didn't disappoint! The staff are amazing and so are the foods.
They offer a decent variety and quality isn't compromised. Would definitely recommend.
If you are ordering a take away main course then do check explicitly whether complimentary rice/naan is provided along with it.
Best restaurant for south Indian cuisines in Belfast.
We had veg momos, medu wada and mysore masala Dosa. All were delicious and the sambar and chutney were authentic.
My sister and I were looking at menus outside Botanic Avenue restaurants, decided to go into Bites Of India because we'd never tried dosa before. Very glad we did... Lamb dosa was massive but light and delicious, the dal accompaniment was spectacular and I would encourage you to save room for gulab jamun for dessert.
Great, fresh food, top service, good pricing. Will be back.
The best indian food in the whole Belfast.
Highly recommended
We were a group of six and each one ordered a different dish, all of them were top taste.
A must try.
Proper Indian flavours, lamb shank is delicious and very good portion size….
Bites of India had been recommended to us by our son and his fiancee so we decided to give it a try on a quiet Monday evening. My wife had a mixed non veggie starter platter for two as her main course and I had a medium spicy lamb biryani. Staff were great, both meals were served fairly quickly and both were delicious. I haven't tried Dosas before and they look great so intend to return soon to try something different.
