About Mountain Gate Indian and Nepalese Restaurant

Ferntree Gully locals head here for uncompromised Nepalese specialties and rich North Indian curries under one roof. Run by Chef Ram and his family, the room keeps things focused on the table—warmly lit, framed by traditional wall paintings, and completely free of blaring television screens. Regulars point first-timers toward the juicy momos, the richly spiced goat curry, and garlic naan pulled blistered and hot. Banquets lean generous, arriving with complimentary refills on curries and breads before wrapping up with housemade pistachio kulfi.

  • Dual Nepalese & Indian Menu: Blends traditional North Indian curries with authentic Nepalese staples like momos, goat curry, and Everest banquets.
  • Refillable Banquets: Set banquet feasts feature generous portions alongside complimentary refills on curries and naan breads.
  • Screen-Free Setting: Warmly lit dining room decorated with authentic artwork and floral touches, deliberately arranged without TVs.
