always adore tibetan food!! delicious beef momos that were absolutely stuffed, and really unique tibetan foods. a little on the pricey end compared to surrounding tibetan restaurants and service was ok, but otherwise great! expect a short wait for a table.

Absolutely unacceptable. The service was rude, careless, and completely unprofessional. The staff showed zero respect, and the overall attitude was enough to ruin my mood instantly. I ended up canceling my order because I refused to eat food prepared by people who clearly don’t care. One of the worst service experiences I’ve had would not recommend this place to anyone.

First of all people need to understand food and culture. There isn’t a “maitre d” here this is a homely hole in the wall with great food. If you sant to be waited on hand and food this isn’t the place for you. If you appreciate good food and culture this is a perfect representation of such.
Authentic to it’s theme and the amazing food speaks for itself
Momo’s are amazing and juicy and bok choy and beef stir fry top tier.

We ordered delivery from this place. They put so much salt in the food that we got headaches and got sick. If you order food when the chef doesn’t want to work, beware

as soon as we walked in they didn’t know how to greet the guests just blatantly said wherever you want
food looked it had so much spices but tasted worse then british food the outside of the good was hot but inside was still cold probably just microwaved idk how they run this business it’s the next day and me and my girlfriend have the worst stomach pain we could imagine definitely never going here again the owner/staff didn’t care about other guests coming in three of them sitting besides there door eating food and licking the plates like its their home no professionalism and very unhygienic

They served stale chowmein that was tasteless, and the thukpa soup was completely spilled. Overall, it was a waste of money. This place used to be good, but the quality has gone downhill and is now very bad.

Definitely not how this place used to be. Overpriced and caters more to gentrifiers and transplants now. Skips your order but doesn’t say anything

Came in for dinner at 920 on a Saturday and the staff acted as if they couldn't care less if we came in. Both the woman seating us and the server approaching us felt as if we were taking up their time. We left and don't care to come back.

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
