“Best food in Bay, All time fav🔥👌“

“We had pani puri, dahi puri, wai wai sadeko, and the goat thali, and everything was absolutely delicious. The pani puri was fresh and flavorful, the dahi puri was perfectly balanced and creamy, and the wai wai sadeko had the right amount of spice and tang. The goat thali was the highlight rich in flavor, well-cooked, and very satisfying. Overall, the food tasted authentic and fresh, and the experience was excellent. Highly recommend this place. We will definitely back“

“Delicious food , best Momo in the Bay Area“

“Freshly made Momos. Amazing! I love the lamb, turkey and veggie Momos ... and the spicy sauce. Smiles from staff all the time 😀❤️ Thank You very much 👍 Order frozen Momos to cook at home“

“I love this place. The fact that they have regional Tibetan food is one of the cool things that makes Berkeley, Berkeley. We tried the sampler containing all the Momo’s. Loved it all and it was pretty healthy. Will be coming back! Updated from previous review on 2026-01-24“

“Good food, I always like to eat over here because food are soo good and tasty, momo is best and chowmein too“

“Great food and service, I would like to explore more from the menu“

“Best Indian food I’ve had in a while, and my new go-to dinner spot after work! Momo is squishy and delicious (especially lamb!) curry was perfectly seasoned, and the naan was so scrumptious I couldn’t stop eating it (especially cheese naan omg!)“

“Nepa graciously accommodated our reservation of 15 mixed age revelers. The hospitality and service were top-notch, they allowed for special wines brought in with corkage, and helped pace the meal, which was served family style at our request. Loved the tikka masalas, the naan, chai - everything we ordered. We so appreciated all our gracious servers. We will be back.“

“Great food and nice service. I recommend all to try and sure you will love it.“

“I study right across the street, so I’ve been eyeing this place and its momo for a while. Well… curiosity officially cured. The momo was a solid C—, like the grade you get when you show up to class but don’t really try. I ordered the mixed ones, steamed, and the dough was a bit chewy and torn.The portion was big, the filling was so mysterious I couldn’t even tell what I was chewing—could’ve been chicken, could’ve been my hopes and dreams.

On the bright side, the service was terrific and the food came out steaming hot.“

“Food is delicious! My server was welcoming and the food was served hot and neatly. I was offered GF and vegetarian options that were delicious! Definitely recommended.“

“The food was excellent and mouth watering! The staff, friendly and attentive. I highly recommend.“

“the owner) was real nice and funny. There were 8 in our group and 6 has never tried Indian or Nepalese food before.we ordered Lab biriyani ,Garlic naan ,Samosas ,Tandoori mixed plater ,Vegetable momo,Chicken tikka masala ,Black Dal ,Lamb palak
,Mango lassi and Himalayan iced tea .all of the food was great but the 6 who have never been loved the chicken tikka masala. I would definitely recommend this place to someone looking for some Indian food/ Nepalese food.“

“Spent 3 days in SF and in those 3 days had to come back multiple times to eat! My super picky girlfriend loved it and so did I. I had a delicious combination of flavors I had never had before. YOU HAVE TO TRY THE GARLIC BREAD. 10/10 reccomend this place.

P.S their staff if super friendly and nice!“

“Hey there foodie friends, Guess what? I just had the most delicious and authentic North Indian food during my visit to San Francisco! I never expected to find such yummy flavors in the USA. From buttery naan to spicy curries, my taste buds were dancing with joy! If you ever get the chance, you HAVE to try it out. Trust me, you won't be disappointed! Keep on adventuring and trying new things!“

“I went at 8:10PM (20 minutes before closing), and they treated me so kindly and let me stay and eat past the closing time. I had a great experience because not only was the food delicious, so was the service, ambiance, and treatment. The food is 100% made with love and you can taste it.“

“The owner is very sweet! I’ve been coming here for almost 3 years, sometimes 3+ times a month🙈🤣 I always get the chicken tikka masala & chicken Cho mein, (I ask for both Spicy but you can get any level of heat you prefer) & a side of the garlic naan. I’ve tried almost everything on the menu but those are my favorite! The owner has always been very accommodating, I’m a picky eater & this is one place I come and know I’m going to get a good meal.“

“love this place. Food is fresh and delicious. Owner is also very hospitable and always greets us with a warm 😃“

“Best saag I’ve ever had! Wonderful salmon tandoori. Amazing chai 👏🏻!“

“Arvin and Puja prepare authentic Nepalese Food that is delicious. My favorites are the Palak Panner, Mixed Vegetable, and Paneer Tikamasala as I am vegetarian. The Nan and Roti are to die for. I love the down to earth homie atmosphere and friendly service. It you want good quality wholesome food in a relaxed and friendly setting, this is your place. I highly recommend Mount Everest to anyone.“

“Delicious momos... One of the best part of our San Francisco visit was to try all the authentic tastes of flavorful Momos from Momolicious. My best would be Kathmandu Jhol Momo and Fiery Momo. And not to forget the kwati soup on a rainy day. We literally filled our tummy tasting all the items on the menu whole day. And we are glad we did it .So proud of you Anup Bajracharya!! And kudos to the team. It was seriously finger licking good. Friends if you happen to be in San Francisco Bay area give it a try for this Nepalese cuisine.“

“We came across this place after watching movie in Richmond. They were having some program in their restaurant at that moment so there was not seating available but lady on front desk offered take out, And she also offered us chai on the house. We had veg chowmein and paneer chilly. And it was really good.“

“Came here for an impromptu dinner with my boyfriend!

Good:
- Super nice staff and they checked in us a ton despite this place being fairly casual
- Loved the Himalayan burrito - the paratha wrap and the paneer inside was so delicious
- The noodle soup was pretty good too - sweet and savory
- Portion sizes were great - super full at the end of it

Bad:
- The wait time was a bit long for our two entrees
- A bit more casual and self-service

Overall this was a good find after a long day of walking around and was the perfect thing to get us energized for a long night.“

“Freshly made Momos. Amazing! I love the lamb, turkey and veggie Momos ... and the spicy sauce. Smiles from staff all the time 😀❤️ Thank You very much 👍 Order frozen Momos to cook at home“

“Great food and great drinks! Friendly staff. You have to come by and check it out.“

“The signature Momo dumplings were outstanding, fresh flavor with a beautiful savory sauce. Lamb shank was melt off the bone deliciousness. awesome outdoor seating & excellent friendly service“

“We had a great meal here on a quiet Tuesday night, and I’d love for more people to know what a gem this spot is! The food was tasty — we had a variety of vegetarian dishes — and the service was super friendly. I loved the calming water feature and a lack of screens in the dining room; the presence of screens seems to be becoming the norm at more casual restaurants. Looking forward to coming here regularly!“

“Was in town for a few days and was craving some Indian food, when I saw this spot I got excited when I saw the name. Just as I hoped, the menu said they also offered Tibetan/ Nepali dishes. I have always wanted to try Momos, so I had to go. Yoyo Momoss is a small spot, the kind I grew up finding the best food at, so I couldn't resist. I am so happy I found them! I got delicious Momos, Chicken Tikka Masala, garlic Naan, Aloo Gobi and oh my, everything was so good. I felt like I was home, or someone's grandmother's house. The kind of food only a seasoned chef could produce. I had been to 4 restaurants before being lucky enough to find Yoyo Momoss, and I am so glad I did. I only review restaurants I really, really enjoy, this has been the best since my arrival in Oakland! Bodhi and the cook that was with him preparing the food couldn't have been nicer. That made the visit so much better. The world needs more businesses like this one, do yourself a favor and eat here, if you're a local you will probably become a regular customer. This spot makes me wish I could stay in Oakland for a long, long time. Thank you for the wonderful food, I will be sure to come back next time I come to town.“

“I had the Chicken Tikka Masala and Aloo Naan. It was very good I recommend this restaurant.“

“Now that work is not remote anymore, I love that we have a reliable good tasting Indian Nepalese place that has come in the place of Ananda Fuara. Definitely some good portions for the price. I also sometimes just go in for an afternoon chai.“

“Was visiting San Francisco from the UK and discovered this gem of a restaurant for dinner. Best chana masala I've ever tasted, generous portions, Excellent value for money, polite and attentive owner who kindly served the food. Would definitely recommend.“

“We’ve been to this restaurant 4 times now and it’s always delicious. However; this time, my husband noticed a difference saying “this is the best I’ve ever had.” I agreed. At the end of our meal, the NEW OWNER (who cooked all of our food) shared with us that he just bought the restaurant in October. Wow! VERY IMPRESSIVE as the sauces in the dishes tasted more authentic. My husband and I both traveled to India and love it there, so tasting the same dishes we always get even more tasty was amazing (Chicken Tikki Masala ($15), Lamb Biryani ($16), Lamb Tikki Masala ($15.99), Cheese Naan ($6), Garlic Naan ($5), Chickpea & Potatoes dish (Kadai Channa Masala $11.99) and Streamed Basmati Rice ($4). Seriously! THIS RESTAURANT IS A MUST TO TRY AND ENJOY! The owner said he will soon open a buffet as well. We definitely will be back w/ empty stomachs as we can’t wait to enjoy this authentic Indian restaurant again. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!“
