Review Dekevas Restaurant - Darjeeling

Food here is great. All of them have extra grease but at the end of the day fresh food that tastes great. I wouldn’t recommend the Kimchi Jjigae Soup. As an avid Kimchi (and Kimchi Jjigae) maker myself, this is not what it is supposed to taste like. Would definitely recommend the chilli pork and the chicken momo. Would also recommend Bibimbap (but don’t expect to be blown away)

This place is worth the wait to get in. We had the Bao which were lovely and fluffy and soft. The filling we had was Mongolian beef but I think the chicken will be better. The ramen portion is huge. The service was very fast. We ordered before we got in the restaurant so there was not much time to wait for food. Highlight was the dessert! Chocolate mousse was best I’ve had in India. Highly recommend. Also very reasonably priced food.

A true delight for foodies! This place is just beside the famous Kunga Restaurant but by no means less than it when it comes to the awesome food and service! If I have to compare I would say Dekevas is far better in ambience and service when compared to Kunga and food quality is at par! Now coming to the food we ordered the following: 1) Korean Chicken Bibimbap - 8/10 🌶️ The dish is awesome when it comes to the look of it but taste wise it is butter fried rice with some greens and stir fried chicken and some carrots with the sunny side fried egg. Nothing super amazing but the presentation was superb! 2) Dragon Chicken Bao - 9.5/10 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 The best baos I have ever had! The dragon chicken was crunchy and tasted superb and the baos were soft and moist! The best combination. Just had to deduct a few points coz few chicken pieces were a little hard but it's a MUST try! 3) Fresh Lime Mint & Orange Mint - 10/10 🍊🧡 Both tasted as well but I really liked the orange mint coz it had both the sweetness and tanginess of an orange which was to my liking.

So delicious! Best meal I've had for several days! Prompt service, decent price, great quality food. Highly recommend! I now see why this place always has a queue to eat here! Yum!

Delicious momos, dragon chicken, iced tea, noodles and chocolate mousse. Pork chilli was alright, needed a little more salt. Only self-service but waiters were great. Also there was great music playing. Highly recommended.

I recently visited Dekevas in Darjeeling, tucked away in the heart of the shopping market next to Keventers and Kunga Restaurant. Despite its limited seating, the restaurant boasts a charming Tibetan, Korean, and Chinese menu with a cozy interior. Sure, the waiting time for the food order was a bit longer, but the quality made it worth it. I tried the steam chicken momo (8 pieces for Rs 160) and the Tibetan chicken thukpa (Rs 200), and I must say, it was a culinary delight! The momos were incredibly juicy, a true Darjeeling specialty. The thukpa, loaded with veggies, eggs, noodles, chicken, and flavorful soup, could easily satisfy three hungry tummies. The balance of spice and taste was spot-on. Despite the limited seating, Dekevas is definitely a gem for those craving authentic Tibetan, Korean, and Chinese flavors in Darjeeling.

Excellent food and service but they should consider the hygiene too. Overall a nice experience.

This was the best food I’ve had in India. Additionally, the staff was very kind and the food came quickly. The prices were good as well. I can definitely recommend the spring rolls.

just beside Kunga. This place serves many korean dishes. And also remains open till 9 30pm. We tried their Pork Shapta , Pork Bibimbap (definitely try), and Pork Ramen (the. noodle tasted more like Maggi but was delicious) would like to try their korean donuts but it was unavailable at that time. their menu card is cute and also play nice 2000s English music. They seating area is for like 5 groups of people only.

Had a great time with lovely food. Service was good. A warm and cozy restaurant to dine in. Situated at a very good location. Recommended.

I had no idea about this place and just happened to stumble upon it one evening when I was starving. I ordered the Chicken Japanese Ramen, Kimchi Fried rice and instantly fell in love with both. The broth of the ramen was so good, and the rice was near perfect as each rice grain had the kimchi flavour. I mean, hats off to the chef. PS. The photos are of bad quality as I was more interested in eating.

Food is really good and the environment is cozy in a very compact place. Limited seating arrangements, but that adds a charm to this place in a different manner Ina positive way! Love this place and came back for more during my stay. Recommend!

This place is so under rated! Their Dragon chicken bao is the best I ever had! Momo was top notch too! A must visit place in darjeeling!

Amazing Food !!! This is one of the best Tibetan food I tried in Darjeeling. Ordered Korean Mixed Rice Chicken, which was so delicious. Staff behaviour was so good, everyone was very polite. Price was very acceptable compared to taste of the foods

It was a recommended place for Korean food. The food tasted great, It's a small cafe right at the Mall road Junction. The only challenge I faced was, there was no wash room or even a hand washing basin. Must have is the Dragon Chicken Bao and the Bibimbap.

Housed just beside Kunga and sharing a common wall, this place has given a tough fight to Kunga recently with it's outstanding food and a great menu to select from. Differing slightly from the Chinese and Tibetan cuisine, they have successfully ventured into Japanese, Korean and breakfast dishes. The momos were beautifully cooked, even the veg momo was delectable. I tried the egg spring roll and it was fantastic with a thin wrap of fried dough carefully concealing the egg and veggies inside. We tried the beef ramel bowl and it was decent at most. The beef was a bit mellow in flavour. Presentation here is good, service is quick, portions are good. Here also, one would have to wait for some time as the space is not much. Still worth it.

1st we took 1 Pork steam momo.. which was good.. then we took a mixed fried rice (chicken, beef, egg, prawn) with that we took a chilly chicken.. both of them were delicious and mouth watering.. i just loved the food here.. we were two people.. me and my wife. so ya the quantity was quite good for us..

A little eatery opposite Keventer's, the place is aesthetically decorated. We tried their pork bibimbap and pork thukpa. Both were delicious and portions were good! They nailed the gochujang in the bibimbap, absolutely Korean style. Definitely recommended!

A small eatery that serves delectable food with fast service. The dragon chicken baos were the highlight of our lunch.
