“There were several tables available at 1p on a Saturday. We were able to sit a party of 5 immediately. We ordered 1 plate of 8 delicious fried beef momo's. The momo's are on the bigger side and had lots of juice/soup in the bites. Be careful of temperature! It came with sauces to accompany it with.“

“My name is Bijaya KC, and I live in California. While visiting New York, I had the chance to try the food here, and it was honestly one of the best Nepali meals I have had in the United States.

Everything tasted fresh, homemade, and full of authentic flavor. The dal, rice, vegetables, pickles, and meat dishes were all prepared perfectly. The flavors were balanced, comforting, and reminded me of meals back home in Nepal. You can tell that the food is made with care and attention to quality.

What I liked most was that the food did not feel like typical restaurant food. It felt like a home-cooked meal made by family. Every dish was fresh, well-seasoned, and served in generous portions. The homemade pickles and traditional Nepali flavors really stood out and made the meal memorable.

I have tried Nepali food at many places across the U.S., but this experience was special. It brought back memories of home and gave me a sense of comfort that is hard to find when you are far away from your country.

If you are looking for authentic Nepali food in New York, I highly recommend this place. The quality, taste, freshness, and overall experience were excellent. I would definitely come back again the next time I am in New York.

Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Great experience overall. The food was really good. I ordered the paoze, and while it could’ve used a little more salt, it was still tasty. The service was what really made the visit stand out. The server was friendly, attentive, and made us feel genuinely welcome from start to finish. I’d definitely come back again, especially because of how great the service was.“

“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 visited the Potala Fresh Food truck. These are my favorite momo in the city! The momo are so fresh and juicy you have to lean over the container or plate when you eat them, it’s that juicy! I typically get the beef but they have chicken and other varieties as well. I love that you can also order them frozen if you need a large amount for a home event.“

“One of the best Tibetan food in Jackson Ht.“

“My wife and I recently visited Laliguras Restaurant in Jackson Heights, and we had a wonderful experience. This small neighborhood spot is truly a hidden gem and deserves more attention.

I ordered the goat with potatoes, and it was absolutely delicious. The goat was tender, well-seasoned, and full of rich, authentic flavor. The potatoes soaked up the spices perfectly, and everything on the plate tasted fresh, comforting, and homemade. The portions were satisfying, and you could tell the food was prepared with care.

The restaurant may be small, but the quality of the food makes a big impression. I highly recommend stopping by Laliguras Restaurant and supporting this local business. Come hungry and try the goat—you will not be disappointed!“

“I ordered the momos as an appetizer, and they quickly became the highlight of my meal. The filling was juicy and flavorful, while the wrapper had the perfect texture. They were served hot and tasted incredibly fresh. The quality and attention to detail were impressive. I will definitely be back for more.“

“The food is great. I have been eating at this spot for a couple of years. I stopped going when we got hit with the pandemic; now, I’m back.“

“This food truck serves some of the heartiest momo on the streets of Jackson Heights. We got 8 thick and meaty beef momo for $8 at Amdo Kitchen. The go-to sauces here are the red sauce and white sauce. The halal momo are complimented with a thicker, chewier dough than other momos - it takes me three bites to finish each one. Amdo Momo is a favorite for those looking for an authentic taste of Tibetan cuisine. Don't forget to ask for the side of radish!“

“What a great Chicken Taco customized to my liking. I am especially happy that Nadia who is the manager is so nice and always super helpful. When Nadia is there I can trust that my dinner will be exactly what I want. Such a great rep for Wonder!!“

“A True Gem, Incredible Thalis & Outstanding Service.

Himalayan Restaurant & Bar has quickly become one of my favorite spots. The food is absolutely phenomenal, especially the thalis. Every time I order one, I’m impressed by the variety, balance, and authenticity. The rice is perfectly cooked, the lentils and curries are rich and flavorful, the vegetables are fresh, and every small side adds something special to the plate. It’s a complete, satisfying meal that feels both comforting and thoughtfully prepared.

What truly makes the experience even better is the service. Prekshya is an excellent server, genuinely kind, attentive, and always welcoming. She has such a warm personality and makes you feel valued from the moment you walk in. She’s a sweetheart and goes above and beyond to ensure everything is perfect.

If you’re looking for authentic Himalayan flavors with beautiful presentation and heartfelt hospitality, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommended. I’ll definitely keep coming back!“
