What started with a handful of spots serving dal bhat and momos has expanded into a genuine community of kitchens — each with their own style, specialties, and loyal regulars. Whether you're Nepali and homesick for a plate of khasi ko masu, or an Australian curious about Himalayan food, this guide covers every Nepali restaurant in Perth worth visiting in 2026.

Tips for visiting Nepali restaurants in Perth
- →Book ahead for weekends — most Perth Nepali restaurants are small and fill up fast, especially Friday and Saturday evenings.
- →Try the momo first — it's the best way to judge a Nepali kitchen. Steamed is traditional; jhol (in broth) is increasingly popular.
- →Dal bhat is the heart of Nepali cuisine — rice, lentil soup, vegetable curry and pickle. Many places offer it as a set meal.
- →Ask about specials — smaller Nepali restaurants often have off-menu dishes, especially goat on the bone or seasonal items.
- →Most Perth Nepali restaurants are BYO or fully licensed — check before you go.
