Customer Reviews
While in Kathmandu is a neighborhood classic- the space is beautiful, intimate, and lovely for a casual romantic evening! Service from Susie was amazing and friendly. The food is always incredible. Standouts are the pillowy Cheese Naan, veggie momos, and anything from the “Off the Grill” section of the menu. (Salmon was tender and beautifully spiced and I never knew broccoli could be so good.) Check out While in Kathmandu, it’s a beautiful neighborhood spot.
Delicious flavor palette and great vibe! Had a great dinner here. We ordered a mango lassi, water buffalo dumplings, garlic naan, and the goat platter! Absolutely delicious. Super cool arrangement of meat options!! Huge servings for the price and we were pleasantly stuffed! The goat platter had an array of interesting flavors. The goat was a bit gamey though, always feel a bit weird picking bones out of my food in a restaurant.
While in Kathmandu offers an amazing experience. It is cash only, but there is an ATM located inside. The space is cozy and the staff are kind and attentive without hovering, which makes the entire experience relaxed and comfortable. We started with the cheese naan, cut into generous triangles with lightly blistered surfaces and golden brown spots from the oven. It was served with a smooth mint sauce that tasted fresh and lightly tangy, balancing the richness of the naan. The dry rub masala wings came out deeply golden and crisp, coated evenly in warm spices like cumin, coriander, and chili. Instead of being saucy, the spices clung to the chicken skin, letting the flavor of the meat shine while still delivering heat and aroma. The momos were a standout both visually and in flavor. They a
suzie was my server and she was v attentive and kindly answered all my questions abt the food. i had the chicken platter and it was the most flavorful dish i’ve had in a while—just what i needed after a long, grueling winter day. especially loved the achar, i wanted to buy a jar of it. great place to solo dine. and their price point is quite up there ngl, but so worth it. will be back very very soon
We celebrated my mom’s birthday here and it was such a wonderful experience! The staff were very friendly and welcoming, and the food was beyond our expectations—absolutely delicious! Everything we ordered was amazing. We’ll definitely be coming back!
