by cooking everything in a lot of butter (they call it cheese), vegetables etc take on a lot of flavor. it was hard to get the attention of the server once we got our food though.

I went today and I enjoy every food I was getting served. I asked one of the workers what food I should eat and he recommended me some good option like the jerky beef with some pepper and cheese that was so amazing and also the dumpling cheese 10 out of 10 I love everything about the food. I love everything. I even love the customer service. They were extremely nice and even the people that were having the wedding parties too were also nice like the atmosphere. It was just a bunch of nice people and it’s it felt really welcoming.

Had such a great time eating here! The food was delicious, and I got to try dishes I had never heard of— the ema datshi and the dried pork were both especially delicious. I also recommend the butter tea; I had never had a salty tea drink before but I really enjoyed it. Our server was also so friendly and seemed genuinely excited to introduce us to Bhutanese cuisine since no one in our group had tried it before. Hope to come back soon!

Authentic Bhutanese cuisine in NYC!

Ambiance (4/5): The inside felt really homey with several dining tables and then a billiards table in the back room.
Service (2/5): There was very little service in general. If you want something, expect to flag down the one person who works the front to order, to have water refills, and to get the check. Otherwise, you will be left to your own devices. The food does not get delivered in order of appetizers, so they came out all at once. Waitress was able to split our bill into 3 separate payments across credit cards which we appreciated!
I've never had Bhutanese food before! The closest comparison is to Nepalese food. The round of food came with a heaping bowl of rice per person.
Beef Momo (4/5): The skin was thick but the meat was not the most flavorful when enjoyed on its own. The spicy sauce was a smidge to spicy to have with it.
Spicy Salad Beef Chili (4/5): I really liked the cheese with the blend of the green chilies which was actually quite hot. Beef jerky was not too tough to chew. This dish was my least favorite.
Ezay / spicy salad (5/5): Nothing I've had before with feta cheese, and tomato, cilantro altogether!
Pork Chili (5/5): I was a huge fan of the sauce which was both sweet and spicy but not too spicy. There was a good helping of pork pieces but some were a bit tougher cuts than others.
Buckwheat Noodles (3/5): Seemed like just noodles cooked in some oil and butter. Not much flavor to it and not worth the cost point at all.
Sun-dried pork slice (4/5): This was different as it was large pieces of bacon (mostly dried fat) but the sauce was soaked up into the radish slices which was tasty.

If you wish to experience authentic Bhutanese food in New York, Weekender is the place to go. They had everything bhutanese, the food and the vibes. I've had momos in few different countries but they served us the best momos. Highly recommend this place, if anyone want to try Himalayan food from the kingdom of Bhutan.

Food was really great and unique! We got the spicy dried beef with cheese and it was definitely a dish with flavor profiles we’d never tried before. Suja tea was good.

Note: It might look closed from the outside because the metal gates are always down, but it was open and there’s cool decor inside.
