Cafe Shambala

Amazing food and exceptional service. I visited Salt Lake City for a week, and the restaurant was so good that my family ate here four times during our trip. I have dairy and egg allergies, and the staff was very accommodating! they clearly explained the ingredients in each dish and made sure my needs were met. They also offer a great selection of vegan and vegetarian options. I highly recommend the momo and the fried pork.

What a fire place to eat in the avenues! The service was phenomenal, every employee was super friendly and helpful. It’s small, cozy, clean, and the food was delicious. I had the chicken curry, and loved it!! Great flavor, definitely different than Indian curry, but so good. They have a lot to choose from on their menu, but just ask the server and they’ll give good recommendations.

I came here on a sad day. I was feeling melancholy and knew that I would feel happier if I tried a family owed restaurant, ideally with cuisine I’ve never had. Tibetan food is so delicious, I love it now thanks to Cafe Shambala. The beef momos and mango lassi made me instantly happy. What a beautiful restaurant with kind people.

We tried the buffet at Shambala and it was okay overall. The momos were good, but they would be even better if they were fried a little more to get that perfect texture. Apart from that, everything else was good. Overall, it’s a decent place to try.

My fiancé and I had our first experience with Tibetan food, and Shambala made it worth remembering. The flavours and quality of the food is exceptional. After a few days of non-stop summer days, it was the perfect place to recalibrate and nourish up. Would highly recommend it!
