The staff was incredibly rude! They actually yelled at me just for asking for extra chili sauce with my takeaway — completely unacceptable.

We visited here following the 13th annual momo crawl in Jackson Heights which this establishment did not participate in in 2025. Looking forTibetan cuisine on Yelp, this place came up. There are actually 2 locations on the same street, right across from each other. One location upstairs and the other on ground level. This is for the newer ground level spot. Small dining area, but 1 or 2 tables for groups available. Full bar and bottled bear selection. This are some tradional Tibetan dishes,and they do have momo, but dishes seem more a fusion of the Himalayan regions and and other fare. I really wanted to try the laphing appetizer, a spicy, cold noodle dish. I liked the texture of the noodles. The filling was super hot! I am not sure if chili oil was the only thing inside, but seemed like it was. We also had the stirred fried beef with radish which did have a nice flavor, although some of the meat slices were chewy. The chicken lollipops, which were originally ordered dry, came to the table with sauce and were not dry. The owner seemed perturbed with us, asking us if we were sure we ordered it dry. They took it back. The other main dish came out and the correct chicken dish took a good amount of time to arrive. Service was cold. There were no checks ins and we did feel a little ignored and had to ask for drink refills and the check when someone walked by. We were told the check had to be paid at the bar (it was never brought to our table) but when going to pay, no one was at the bar. Little confusing. I did not look carefully enough at the check to see if the automatic 18% tip was charged as other reviews pointed out. We left a generous cash tip. Cozy atmosphere and the restroom was relatively clean.

Hello everyone, I want to share one of the worst experiences I’ve had this year. I’ve been to many restaurants in my life, with both good and bad experiences, but I have never encountered service this terrible before. • The ordering process was a complete disaster. They didn’t even bother to listen properly, brought the wrong order twice. • The waiting time was ridiculous. It felt like they forgot about us, and we had to remind them multiple times. • The staff were extremely rude and careless. Even to simple questions, they gave cold or disrespectful answers. A smile? Forget about it. • The place was messy and poorly maintained. Tables were dirty and the overall atmosphere felt neglected. • The food quality didn’t match the price at all. The dishes were tasteless, and the portions were surprisingly small.
Honestly, this place was nothing but a waste of time and money. When you go to a restaurant, you at least expect basic respect and decent service—here, you get neither.
So my advice is: if you’re looking to enjoy a nice meal or a pleasant evening, do yourself a favor and stay away from this place. For me, it will always remain the restaurant with the worst service I have ever experienced

When it is 90+ degrees outside in Summer, please turn the AC or FAN on.IT WAS LIKE SAUNA inside the restaurant..The spice in your food does not help either. The owners are negligent and there will be a medical emergency one day.
We ordered for take out through call. The lady who picked up the call was really rude as if she didn’t wanted to take order at all.

Whenever I touch base back to my second home this is my first spot. You don’t understand, this place is so good, as soon as I wake up I crave it and then have to wait the grueling hours before it’s open. I’m pretty basic and get the veggie momos with a cucumber salad but the last time I dine I had these pan fried momos that had this red sauce. It was really good. I can’t wait to come back Queens, I miss this place so much!!

I went to the upstairs location and it was hands down the best Tibatan food in Queens, best momo I ever had. All the cooks were super nice and the hostess was so gorgeous 10/10.

It’s a very simple yet pretty place. Has minimum decoration but it looks neat n clean. Service is fast n good momos we’re really good. They were with potato and Veges. A very different combo but would just slither in the mouth
Amazing food!!!
