“The restaurant is small, not easy to discover. But I’m surprised by the quality of the food and the serving speed! First time coming so we decided to order what people recommend. Beef Momo absolutely sizzler is amazing! I love how thin and momo skin is! The handpulled Tibetan noddle soup is very hearty!“
“I don’t know if I will ever get to Nepal. The team here makes sure you feel as close to their home country as possible. Explaining every dish, the origins, and giving explanations on how and what the meanings of the displays in the restaurant are. Very great experience.“
“Came for momos, left extremely satisfied! Their steamed chicken momos taste authentically Nepali, and the aachar (sauce) is the right amount of savory and spicy. Excellent service and great atmosphere and music. I'll be back to try the chili and jhol momos!“
“OMG, it was delicious! The food was made in heaven and served to us by really nice staff, they were very helpful and friendly! This place deserves 5 stars in everything! Definitely will come back!I also liked the fact that they A LOT of healthier options. Fantastic!“
“We love Nangma, we come here all the time. Their dishes are really flavorful, we keep coming back for more! The Tingmo bread is so soft and pillowy but still has a nice chew to it, we always get an extra one to go when we have leftovers. The portions are really big for the price.And I have to mention the ambiance and decor, it's surprisingly nice considering how unassuming it is from the outside. We love how the culture is celebrated through the decor. It's also a very large space, we've never had to wait for a table. The staff are all so friendly and helpful too!“
“Calling all spicy food lovers - head to Spicy Nepal ASAP. Continuing our Nepalese food tour in Sunnyside, we finally tried Spicy Nepal and it did not disappoint, especially in the heat department. We ordered the Bhatamas Saandeko (fried soy beans - wow!), Vegetable Pakora, Chili Chicken Momo, and the Fish Thali. All were perfectly spicy and had lots of flavor. We definitely put that Mango Lassi to good use b/c there were a lot of sniffles. The location (39-35 47th Ave) is tucked away, so I'm bummed that they're almost always empty when I pass by. Hoping more people will give them a shot b/c I certainly will! The prices are also pretty reasonable.“
“Came here for my birthday dinner and everything was so delicious and filling. Great price for the portions you receive. Staff and owner were very hospitable and helpful with all of our questions. Please come try one of the best Nepalese restaurants in Queens!“
“Namaste Brooklyn (on Cortelyou Rd.) has some of the best and most unique food in Brooklyn (and that is saying something)! Their service is excellent, the prices, in general and especially for 2024 (inflation is a killer), are very reasonable and both the owners, Sonam and Lopsang, are gems (if there is an additional owner I am sorry I left you out, I haven't met you yet!) and everyone is always incredibly friendly. Get the MOMO, any and all MOMO is delicisous and their sauces are top notch as well.“
“The Shakam Datsi was incredible! I never had a dish so balanced with sun-dried beef strips with cheese, veggies, and spices. The atmosphere is great. If you are into trying new cuisines like me, this is a must on the list ! Thank you Pema for the welcoming service.“
“I don’t come here as frequently as I’d like despite being in the neighborhood, but the thentuk in particular is very comforting on a colder day. The pace and atmosphere of this restaurant is overall pleasant and relaxed, which accompanies the food’s well-balanced flavors and careful presentation. This most recent visit, I brought my father (we had the momos, the thentuk, and the chatamari), and he was very impressed with the restaurant and his first time trying this style of cuisine.Thank you for the wonderful times I’ve had here with friends and family, I hope to drop in more.“
“Absolutely adorable spot right next to the train. We walked in around 12 and immediately were seated. I came here during the momo crawl and loved their momo and their kindness, so I had to return. I have no doubts. I love this spot! It was as I expected. The food here is amazing. I loved the beef in my thali (fatty, meaty, yummy) and the dal and greens were so tasty and delicious! It was everything I wanted in a thali! The momo were hot and perfectly made in beautiful arrangement and tasted so good! The beef was fresh and the momo skin super thin so you can eat a ton in a sitting (there's eight momo's in an order)! The decor inside is so gently calming. I'm not merely saying that because Arjit Singh is playing in the background but because the service was outstanding. I would totally go back like today if I didn't already have plans! So awesome!“
“Wonderful experience to be in spice and grill there hospitality is so good I just love it !It is one of the best restaurant I have ever visit.The best Indian and Nepali restaurant!!I tried mango laassi there one of the best beverage it’s was so delicious !!And also Aallo paratha the best bread I have ever ate.The food was yummmyyy!!!People over there were so friendly that I feel like I was in my own home!!!“
“We came here for the first time. We have had nepalese/ indian food in the past. This is an excellent restaurant thw atmosphere is aubdued and friendly. Not noisy at all. Our waitress Nikita was very attentive and helped us pick the house specialties.I highly recommend the mushroom chili, especially if you like spicy foods. Tou will not find this elsewhere. The fritters are also delicious as is the tikka massala. The nan is soft and buttery and flavorful.The deinks are original. I love the yak kick starter and my . wife the chapata aam.We will be coming back.“
“A solid Tibetan restaurant in Jackson heights! I can see why the won the momo walk twice! Food: I loved the spicy chicken momos - honestly the best thing we ordered! The Singaporean noodles with chicken was also delicious and very flavorful - full of veggies! The vegetable noodles were also solid! The paneer chili was well made but the paneer itself lacked flavor! the Himalayan Thalia offered a few different things including a fondue - esque dip, fried dough, and potato, bean soup! I was not a fan and won't order this again. The veggie dumplings with potato, cheese and spinach wasn't my favorite - it was a bit sweet, which I found odd Service: great service! The space is small but packed and our waitress was lovely! Ambience: small but ample seating with outdoor and indoor seating! Nothing special! Price: for the portion sizes - great price“
“Hidden gem! I am secretly happy that not a lot of people know about this spot but they definitely deserve credit and is underrated! Love that their dishes are different from other Tibetan restaurants and everything is very affordable (I hope they don't raise the prices).“
“Me and my girlfriend always enjoy getting takeout here. It is tucked away in a quieter part of Woodside and they serve high quality Nepalese food. We especially like the Thali's which consists of different kinds of food on a platter (think Banchan but larger portions). They consist of: protein (typically in a curry), lentils, vegetable curry, rice, raw red onion/lemon/slightly bitter green vegetable/chili pepper. The combination of all of these ingredients make the dish so appetizing as there are different textures and tastes.“
“Recently I visited NY with my husband. Went to Jackson heights. Had momo from Amdo Kitchen. Momo was yummy and served with soups. Moreover the owner is very kind, perfect customer care. Feel like going to eat there every time whenever we visit there. Chocho la the owner is very kind. Hats off to you ???“
“Secret gem - hole in the wall! Went to the one at the upper floor where you take the stairs to the restaurant. The restaurant is small with only about 6 tables and you can see the kitchen, and it was clean (the staff sanitises the table after use).The food - we tried the Ping Khatsa and Tsak Sha La Ko Hot - loved both of them. The Ping Khatsa was thin sweet potato noodles in a mild soury soup and the Tsak Sha La Ko Hot is beef and radish in herbal clear soup. Also had the butter tea (I think it’s interesting, although not my cup of tea).Definitely would come back for more! Cash only establishment. I wished they would move away from single used chopsticks one day (they do provide proper fork and soup spoon).“
“Conveniently located on the main road, Lhasa restaurant offers a spacious setting and authentic Tibetan cuisine. From savory momos to aromatic thukpa, each dish delights the taste buds. What truly sets this spot apart is its exceptional service, ensuring every visit is memorable. Whether you're a local or traveler, promises a satisfying dining experience with every bite.“
“Honestly one of the best Momos I ever had.Got Goat Momo Jhola (soup) and Buffalo momo. Amazing! Must try .However, the Roti was cold and stale , lost1 star because of that. Hopefully ongoing you correct this as it would have been 5/5.Also loved the fact the owner Yamuna was in music videos that were playing in her restaurant, very amusing!“
“Ordered takeout on a windy, rainy day. The owners were kind enough to offer a mug of hot water while I waited for the food. The beef and vegetable momos are flavorful. About 4 pieces can feed an adult. The atmosphere is very comforting and homey. Decor is very nice and energy is very relaxed.“
“Momo Crave is a Nepali fast-food restaurant in Queens. If you’re craving momos, just head to the Jackson Heights neighborhood of Queens. just off the 7 train on the border of Woodside and Jackson Heights, QueensNo other area in NYC boasts such a strong concentration of restaurants, cafes, and food trucks selling Tibetan and Himalayan cuisine.The restaurant specializes in Momos, a popular type of dumplings in the Himalayas, as well as Nepali masala tea and coffee.We ordered-* Chicken Jhol Momo &* Chicken Chilli MomoBoth dishes were too good. Mix of meat with spices and veggies, steams, and then saute with sauce.I recommend their Jhol momo for sure.I would suggest, avoiding ordering noddles, wings, or drumsticks - they were overcooked, deep deep fried, and not at all tasty- we did not like it all and asked the owner about replacing it with another momo which they did, so I would count their service great.Ambiance - it's good, with a couple of good paintings and cool decor.Note: The neighborhood hosts the biggest Himalayan food and cultural festival in September, giving visitors a taste of some of Jackson Heights’ best Tibetan, Nepalese, and South Asian restaurants at the annual Momo Crawl With over 25 momo vendors in and around the area“
“We always come and get whole bag of Selroti when we visit NY. No other place makes sel like them. And if you have not had or know what Sel is it’s regarded as Nepali Dougnut but personally it’s something completely different. Chia and Sel combo is the best and this is the place to get.“
“I've been getting momos from here for at least 7 years. The steamed beef dumplings are my go to. They come with scallion & they're the best I've ever had. The chicken dumplings are good too. The chicken dumplings contain cilantro instead of scallion, so if you're not a fan of cilantro, you should get the beef. The chow mein noodles are pretty good too. I really wish this place would get their own place instead of having to share with Merit.“
“As a Tibetan . I think it’s a best place to eat your meal. Not like other restaurants has less ingredients and tasteless. I just tried beef noodle , mothup and Tibetan fry dumplings and yellow Laphing. There all are fantastic but laphing chilli little not good. I recommended this place to visit.“
“Fantastic experiences at Cafe Tibet! Get their Mango fried rice! And their soup dumplings! Their delicious ? if you're looking to try Tibetan food for the first time this is the place for you! It's super casual and super cute ambiance. Right next to the Cortelyu metro station. Has cute outdoor seating too. The only problem is there isn't a bathroom and their stuff is a bit pricey for the portion sizes which are definitely on the smaller size. Otherwise I love this place and am looking forward to be back ☺️Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options and tofu dishesDietary restrictions: Labeled menu!Parking: It's hard to park better take the Q it's right next to the cortelyu metro stationKid-friendliness: Kid friendly! Tables outsideWheelchair accessibility: It's a bit cramped for a wheelchair unfortunately inside. Outside is more ample“
“Kriti was a great host, very fun going and with great suggestions. Love the food . Very authentic. Definitely recommend.Here is what I hadChilly Pork ( fried well ) with bun ( not rice )The dal is amazing ( try thali next time )Wai wai snack ( spicy) ?????Momo was goodThe lichi soju is ????The assam I bread , sweet donutThe puffed rice platter was ok“
“Yes the food is delicious.To the owners, I'd highly suggest replacing your current table and chair for tall and small square two seater tables and stools for better accommodation. You can always push tables together for a large group. :)“
