Customer Reviews
Really warm and inviting staff and the food is amazing. Highly recommend the grilled fish. Wonderful seasoning and light and flaky on the inside with a great dipping sauce.
Chicken was raw from the inside and this happened 2nd time to me. Even after notifying them, they don't really seem to care about it too much and completely ignored it. I like some of their other dishes, thats why I keep going back. But this is one aspect where they can do better and take the responsibility of their mistake.
My Nepalese husband and I love this place. Amazing portions and the sukuti is better than what you can get in Thamel in Kathmandu. I will say that their cuisine is more authentic so if you’re looking for thin skinned dumplings instead of thicker plumper momos, you will be confused and disappointed. The veggie dishes (I did the thali which has multiple sides), was just so good. Well flavored and delicious. Can’t wait to come back and bring more friends and family
This place was one of my fav back in the days. I was out of town for two year and back to Bay now and went in for some Nepali momo… but my recent visit got me thinking what’s has gone wrong with this place…? Could it be new management, new owners, new chef? I dunno 🤷♂️… I visited this place on 11/16/2024 for lunch and we ordered Jhol momo, Myan! we could not finish our momo because it was so bad. The momo was so bland, felt slightly undercooked. The Jhol itself had so much masala and lots of turmeric flavor… not gonna lie, it was one of the worst Jhol I had in my life. I am sorry to say it but the chef needs to know. Let’s talk about the service, no offense but the waitress turned her back towards the tables 80 percent of the time we were there… we were never asked how’s everything tast
While the novelty of having Tibetan dishes on menu is a definite plus, the taste unfortunately was very unsatisfying. Chicken Sha Bhaley had a near-forgettable filling and a pastry dough oddly similar to a store-bought Jamaican beef patty. The Buffalo Thukpa broth was very gamey (almost musky) and underwhelmingly spiced — hard to finish. Sad to say, but a first-time experience unlikely to lead to a second.
