Himalayan Restaurants near Queens, NY

“I have been here once before sometime in December, I had liked their food and service. This time, I was here again for lunch buffet. Me and my friend had everything from samosa, fried rice, naan, goat curry, chicken tikka to palak paneer, kheer, and more. Not too spicy, not too bland, just right. It was just for $18/person. I cannot recommend it enough! Thanks to all of the lovely staff. This place is also easy to get to from La Guardia Airport if taking the free Q70 bus.“

“Wonder Nepali Cusin in NY“

“Best Jhol Momo and Mustang Aloo — a must-try! The Chicken Tikka Masala with garlic naan is chef’s kiss. Unreal. I never get pics because I dive in the moment it hits the table. My weekly go-to!“

“The momos were so delicious, almost like a ravioli texture.
We also had the fried cauliflower, saag burrata side and duck for main dish. For dessert we ordered silvana, which is so delicate with many layers of flavors: airy meringue, coffee cream, pistachios.
Would love to go back and try all the different dishes. Absolutely worth it. Food and service were great.“

“Food was delicious.i always bring my guests who come from out of state here at Yak. Service is very nice too.“

“So yummy! The food is so good but definitely on the lighter side flavor wise which i didn’t expect. Was very satisfied nonetheless! If you like a little more spice I added the red sauce from the Bara onto my Momo Chicken dumplings and it was 🔥“

“We are so excited that this amazing Tibetan restaurant reopened in a new location after the original location burned down in February 2021. The support of the community helped make it possible for them to continue serving delicious food in Jackson Heights. It’s as good as we remember, and the staff members are so kind. Please support our favorite Tibetan restaurant if you have the chance. You won’t regret it! 🥰“

“Loved coming here. Food is tasty and feels like home being in here. Customer service is amazing.“

“Food was good and friendly customer service. I will recommend everyone this place.“

“Beautiful environment,good food, good music,friendly environment, great service“

“I had the Nepali thali set with fish, jhol momo's, and the aalu chop. The entire meal was so delicious and fresh. The owner was so nice and gave us more side refills. The place is small but there's seating in the lower level. I was soo full and the meal was affordable. There is a bit of a wait time, but soo worth it. I will be coming back soon!“

“Best Momos in town..must try…👍🏻👍🏻“

“Weekender is the best spot for home cooked Bhutanese food! Taste and vibe reminds you of home and family, and it is a precious community space in Qns so show them love and spread the word 🤎🇧🇹🤎“

“O wow so delicious“

“Visited from Ohio - got recommended this place from a local. The chicken momo and the crispy gobi were incredible. Really enjoyed the food and the service.

(Shoutout to Jonathan from College Point for the recommendation!)“

“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.“

“I’ve been to Nepali Bhancha Ghar before, and this definitely won’t be my last visit. One thing I really loved this time was the buff momo. I hadn’t had good buff momo in such a long time, and these really hit the spot. It was honestly one of the highlights of my meal.

Unfortunately, I can’t say the same about the duck sekuwa. I started regretting my order almost as soon as it arrived, and after trying it, I was even more disappointed. It was very dry, and I found several bones and some parts that were quite burnt. It seemed like it may have been cooked directly over a high flame rather than slowly over hot charcoal, which I think made a big difference. Sekuwa, to me, should be juicy, smoky, and well seasoned, but this was unfortunately quite dry and lacking in flavor.

What made it more disappointing was the price. I had spent about an hour and a half of my wages on this dish, so it honestly felt pretty bad to spend that much on something I didn't enjoy. I still tipped the servers because I know the preparation of the food isn't their responsibility.

Interestingly, after coming home and reading some of the other reviews, I noticed similar comments about the chicken sekuwa. One review described it as “really dry and barely having any flavor,” which was almost exactly my experience with the duck sekuwa as well.

I’m sharing this more as a suggestion than a complaint. I really like this place and would still come back for the momo and other Nepali dishes, but I genuinely think the sekuwa needs some attention. Either the preparation method could be changed significantly, or perhaps this particular dish should be reconsidered for the menu. With the right smoky, juicy, well-seasoned preparation, I think the sekuwa could be something really special.

Overall, I appreciate the restaurant and the food, and I hope this feedback is taken in the spirit it's intended — as a suggestion from someone who wants to enjoy and support the place again.“

“this was my first time eating at Nangma and I enjoyed my experience. The workers were very attentive and handled our food with care. The crispy mala fish was one of my favorite dish there. I would definitely be returning to this restaurant.“

“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.“

“I’ve been wanting to try this place for a long time. It was great. Ordered 4 items, Beef Momo in a broth, Beef&Oats sausage, White Liang Fen and Yellow Rolled Liang Fen with Tofu—about $36 everything was delicious. Definitely recommend if you enjoy spicey foods, wanted to try their Potato salad, but I was stuffed. Next time for sure!“

“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.“

“This is not the first time but I’ve been here numerous times. But everytime , I forget to review as the food is so good here that I get completely mesmerized. So today, I ordered the dhido pork (gravy) thali, came with side dishes of dal, mustard green, potato string beans, ghee and few different yummy pickles. The food was super deeelicious and took me straight back to Nepal ( my thoughts and prayers for all those people who suffered due to the flooding ). Yummy food, super clean bathroom , great ambience and excellent service by the servers.“

“I recently dined at and was really impressed. The food was fresh, full of flavor, and nicely presented. The staff was polite and attentive, making the whole experience smooth and pleasant. I’d gladly return, because the atmosphere felt warm and the meal exceeded expectations.”“

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

“It's good, but, since I am a Nepali and have tried their food back home, I'd say it's not the same as it was back home. But, then again, ingredients change the taste, so, I would say this place is worth trying and you never know you might love the food. :)“

“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.“

“Definitely one of my top cafes. This cafe shop is underrated for the area. Great for studying/remote work. It has a nice Tibetan asthetic and the customer service is probably the friendliest I have seen. They have coffee, lasses, boba drinks and an entire menu of Tibetan dishes like momos. They've got small appetizers like French fries too. Bathroom and AC is excellent.“

“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.“

“Momo wrapped with Millet Flour is amazing. It was my first time trying millet momo , definitely it would be my choice whenever I go out to eat momo. Its a healthy choice. Never miss to Try this momo of Delhi Heights when you are in Jackson Heights.“

“Delish good. Friendly service. Excellent prices.“

“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!!“

“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!“

“Delicious food , clean, friendly staff“

“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!“

“The chicken momos here are sooo good. It comes with the soup even if you don’t ask for it, which makes the experience of eating momos here much better. Of course you can request them to not add the soup in though. Also, the bubble tea here is really really good. It tastes exactly how the fruit is supposed to taste (ex: lychee bubble tea does taste like lychee). Since it mostly just serves bubble tea and momos, I’ve only tried those and giving feedback for them. Service is great, they’re so respectful and nice to you. Atmosphere gets 4 stars because the place isn’t always comfy. The pricing is great too.“

“Soups momo was so good“

“I ordered mutton Taas, dindo mutton thali and khuwa yomari. I was surprised to taste such a delicious Taas ever in my life, not even while in Nepal. I would recommend to try mutton taas for sure. Dhindo thali was amazing too but taas won it. Yomari is my another favourite desert, coming from the same community where this is a separate festival "Yomari purni", i ordered it all the times when I am here.“

“What I usually get here are the samosas. There seems to be two main types, chicken and vegetables (potato and peas). They're $1.50 each (which is a steal!) and are generously sized!!

The chicken samosas are crunchy, and the mix of flavors, ingredients, and spices mesh extremely well. My Bengali friends say the chicken samosas are as good as it gets which may be true, but maybe it's not quite mind blowing enough for me to give anything higher than 8.5/10 - still one of the best samosas I've had to be sure

The vegetable samosas are different in a few ways. To start these samosas aren't as crunchy, and the filling tastes a little more spiceful and flavorful compared to the chicken variation. The texture is definitely more mushy because of the potato filling, but still good. 8/10.

There's a ton of good looking Bengali food at this joint so I'm definitely curious to try more but the samosas here are bomb!“
