Started with warm greetings and complimentary little cups of Dal. Ordered 3 big beautiful meals, got served in under 15 minutes. Momo, chowmein, and biryani, a quintessential Nepali order. All tasted fabulous. Spice levels were offered, a Nepali tongue needs 8+ for mittho spicy levels. Partly because it transported me to 2010s Lhasso restaurant in old baneshwor Kathmandu, I was blown away by the momo platter. Thank you for the pleasant experience, will surely visit again.

So tasty! Not usually a big fan of exotic flavors but this please is great. Been twice now and loved it both times. Chicken 65, dal, garlic broccoli, chow mein, rice, and Momo's were all delicious. And they serve Pond Farm beer!

Incredible, authentic food. What a delight to discover this place. The chef & family who run it are actually sherpas! The butter chicken curry had so many different flavors, I don’t even know how to describe it, except delicious. Grilled meats and veggies also incredible. Naan prepared to perfection. And the Himalayan hot ginger tea hit the spot!

There’s a reason this restaurant currently has a 4.9 out of 5.0 (Dec 2024). Enjoy!

The chicken momo was hard to chew. The pork ribs were okay, nothing extraordinary.

Just what I needed after 15 hrs of driving. Super fast service, great food. The chicken curry could be better but, I haven't had a chicken mo:mo like that in years. The server was super friendly and attentive.

They had an outdoor table so I was able to bring my dog with, which is a plus.
