They are supposed to be open at 5pm on a Saturday but we showed up at that time and they were closed. Not sure what's going on. When is this place even open? Don't count on them being open if you come.

Always walked by this place and it looks quiet from the outside but turns out it’s a really quaint, legit Nepalese restaurant. The owners are very friendly and the menu has unique items I’ve never seen before. All the items we tried were really good, and they have roti and naan. The momos were really good. Would try more of their signature dishes next time!

Dining at Kathmandu Restaurant was a culinary experience I'll never forget. My meal, the Chicken Tikka, was a masterpiece of flavors, perfectly cooked and richly seasoned, making each bite a delight. Accompanied by their garlic naan, which was soft, buttery, and infused with just the right amount of garlic, it was a combination that I found myself savoring long after the meal had ended.What truly elevated the experience, however, was the service, particularly from our server, Daniel. His friendliness and attentiveness were unmatched, making us feel welcomed and valued throughout our visit. His recommendations were spot on, ensuring that our meal was not just food, but an experience to remember.Kathmandu Restaurant's commitment to authentic Nepalese cuisine, coupled with outstanding service, makes it a must-visit for anyone in Albany looking for an exceptional dining experience. It's not just about the delicious food, but the warm hospitality that makes you feel like part of the family. Five stars are well deserved for this gem of a restaurant.

This review was for the food served at the Solano Stroll. I got the Himalayan Curry and Saag Panner with the Chicken Momos. Momos were pretty good (hence the two stars instead of one) but the other two dishes were more than disappointing. Neither had much sauce at all and both had no flavor. Chicken was badly overcooked at 1130 in the AM and should have never been served. Paneer was similarly rubbery and flavorless. I don't do a lot of bad reviews but if this is the kind of food they allow to be served in their name I can't pass up the opportunity to warn people excited for a good meal like I was.

Great service, great traditional Nepalese food. Everything tasted as if someone's mom was cooking in the kitchen. I think the owner's wife was cooking everything in the back, made to order. Looking forward to my next visit!
This was my first time having Tibetan food. All of the food was homemade. The food was rich and flavorful. My friend and I ordered the momo, samosas, daal soup, naan, cinnamon lassi and banana lassi. Everything was delicious! The service was fantastic. I don't remember his name however, he was attentive and informative on the foods. The atmosphere and aesthetics of the restaurants were beautiful. I will definitely be back.

Didn’t meet the expectations. I ordered some momo and the sauce was too sour and the texture of dumplings was too thick and chewy. Price doesn’t match the quality.

Everything was delicious! The samosas had a nice spice that lingers after you finished eating for a few minutes. The Naan was really well made and had a nice fresh crunch to it. The chicken ? dish was full of flavor. Family owned since 1994 and had a Tibetan unique decor inside.

Great find with this tiny place, we had a delicious meal of two lamb dishes and one salmon, plus a starter that looked like a veggie omelette covered with sauce but was a "rice" dish that was really very good. I look forward to eating here again! The only downside was they didn't have any bottles of red wine, just white.

Most of the soups and noodles are really good, but the barbecue paneer is disappointing (they have a plate of veggies with 1 piece of paneer). Super friendly wait staff, and the rest of the food was amazing. Clean location in a convenient venue as well - absolutely will visit again!
