Had a Groupon deal from this place so we went there for an early dinner. Pretty decent Himalayan/Indian food. Had the lamb vindaloo, mixed grilled and Lamb Biryani. The vindaloo was good and a bit spicy. The mixed grilled is a bit dry and the biryani was a bit wet. All over it was decent. Our server was very tentative. The entire restaurant is decorated with Nepali native arts and statues.

We absolutely love this place! We've been coming here for years. Every bite is filled with amazing flavors. Whether it's the nasn, momo, saag paneer, chicken vindaloo, everything is always delicious!

Fantastic Nepalese spot. The veggie momos had the ideal wrapper-to-filling ratio and deep, savory flavor; I could have made a meal of them alone. Daal was comforting and delicious, chicken tikka masala came luxuriously creamy, and the eggplant-potato (Bhanta/Baingan Aloo) was my surprise favorite—rich, spiced, and addictive. Only miss: the raita skewed sweeter than my taste. Huge thanks to Sapana, whose attentive, kind service made the meal even better. Namaste!
