Best momos, Nepali, and Indo Chinese food I’ve had in DC. Super affordable and good portion sizes. Will be coming back soon.

Small restaurant and the food is superb. We ordered momo and goat/chicken curry and it was amazing. 10/10 would visit again if we're nearby

A great, affordable hole in the wall option serving delicious Nepalese dumplings and other dishes. I had the Jhol Momo and it was incredible. Can’t wait to come back and try more.

Moh Moh licious is a bit of hidden treasure. The Moh mohs (Nepalese dumplings) are ridiculously good. Every time I order i tell myself I'll try more things and then get the same delicious dumplings and I'm happy. The C Momo (if you want some heat), Kothey Momo (if you want to control the sauce options), and Jhol Momo are my go to orders. Order more than you want because they are fantastic as leftovers. If this restaurant was further south on Georgia Ave there would lines out of the door.

I’ve eaten takeout here numerous times over several years. Small seating area probably isn’t best for eating in, but it’s always been clean. The food is always high quality and the people working are friendly and helpful. I recommend tasting your way around all of the momo dumplings (including all the dipping sauces!). Noodles and curries are solid, too. I can’t wait to keep trying new dishes but also keep going back to favorites.

I grabbed lunch here and tried the jhol momo with veggie filling for the momos. It was absolutely delicious! The staff was really friendly. The inside is small but there’s a few seats. Definitely a hidden gem!

The jhol moh moh and achari chicken are outstanding. One of my favorite restaurants in DC.

There are only a couple of tables to dine in, but the food is amazing!! Well worth it!
Great spot to try dumplings. I got the pork jhol jhol dumplings and a side of naan bread. The soup was delicious, the broth was perfect and the dumplings were good as well. The naan bread was good but nothing special. With be back to try one of their other soups or dumplings. Portions are big, I only ate half my food and the prices are fair.

This has very quickly become my go-to carryout/delivery place. The food here is SO GOOD and has a unique flavor profile that I haven't had anywhere else in the area. I've sampled a number of dishes at this point: Thukpa Soup - delicious, hearty, especially great when under the weather. Hot & Sour Soup - delicious and spicy, great proportion of vegetables, tastes quite different from the Chinese takeout version (in a great way) Lamb Momo (with red spicy sauce) - really unique flavor and VERY tasty. I've ordered this twice now. Chicken Chow Mein - pleasantly surprised that this was a bit spicy! Very satisfying and tastes quite different from the Chinese takeout version as well. Chicken Biryani - Great flavor, love it! They do it right! Paneer Masala - Great flavor, love it! They do it right!
Looking forward to trying even more things on the menu!
Small dining area, I think it seats about 8. Food is very good, service was quick.

The red sauce that comes with momo (momo achar) is always spoiled. I even complained them about it last time, but they still chose to send me the spoiled sauce again. If you don't want to get food poisoning, avoid this restaurant.

I've mostly gotten take out from this spot, but the people here put their love into the food and it always hits the spot! I love vindaloo and they have just the right amount of spice in it. All the momos are solid. Only tried the sesame tomato sauce, but it's good. This is a hidden gem and no brainer ?
