Loved their momos and big samosas! Goes very well with their sauces. Loved the dessert momos too, I think that’s the only place in the US I got to try thatVegetarian options: There’s an option to get vegan curries and momos.

I've been wanting to try Bridges for a while and finally got around to doing it and it DID NOT disappoint! Got the vegan Momos, Chow Mein, and Samosa and they were the best I have ever had at any Nepali food establishment. The employees were so sweet and suggested things to us and everything came out so quickly even with coming in so close to closing time (made sure to leave before closing don't worry, not a jerk.) I would definitely recommend this to everyone.

Very interesting experience, i liked the buns but the sauce was one note after a bit and when I came in I didn't even have time to read over the menu before the employees gestures me over a few times to order. Never again, got sick all

The food is flavorful (and can be spicy). Staff will help walk you through options. This restaurant is more of a hot bar with options and less of a traditional sit down restaurant.

The chai tea was very good. I ordered the lentil pancake and was underwhelmed and I think the flavors were a little lacking. I got a side of potato/lentil soup and it was very good. Not sure if I would eat here again, but it seems like a popular place that people really like.

Delicious. We discovered this delightful resturant through Cincy Asian Week 2024. We shared dumplings and a rice bowl. Friendly staff helped us make up the bowl. We liked the fresh vegie-herb topping on the bowl. Large portions. Big selection of frozen goodies to take home. Thank you.Parking: Parking lot nearby. Limited street parking.

★★★★★ Food quality★★★★★ Service★★★☆☆ Ambiance★★★★☆ Value★★★★★ Menu selection★★☆☆☆ Location/Accessibility★★★★☆ Overall experienceDate visited: 12/14/2023Cooking stands as one of my cherished hobbies, and I typically revel in the solitude of preparing dinner for myself. However, that particular night took an unexpected turn with a surprise call from my friend, MW, inviting me for a night out. Of course I could not refuse such an opportunity to lift her spirits, I readily agreed. Our destination? A Northside bar. But before giving into the realm of alcohol, hunger led us to one of MW's favorite local establishments - Bridges. It was chilly that night and the streets were nearly devoid of traffic. Rows of cars lined the street, and after a bit of a struggle, I chose a random paid parking lot just opposite the restaurant. Stores on this street seemed to share some common features of a bygone era and Bridges was no different. The exterior was unassuming with only a modest sign for identification. Peering through the glass windows, the dim streetlight revealed a lively scene inside. A female staff behind the counter greeted us and promptly took our order. With our food in hand, we found a nearby table. Before digging in, I took a moment to soak in the unique vibe. The intentionally dim lighting, emanating from a few warm-colored bulbs, cast a cozy glow over our compact dining space. The furniture was arranged closely together to savage what little space left. There was deco on walls depicting various aspects of Nepalese and neighboring cultures and religions.Now, let's talk about the food. MW ordered a humble dish of momos accompanied by a vibrant green sauce of some sort. They were steaming hot and neatly arranged on an featureless white dish. Thanks to her kindness, I had the chance to taste it out. The texture of this dumpling-like dish was just what I imagine: the skin was soft and elastic but not chewy, the vegetable filling is dry but packed. The flavor was slightly sweet and herby but overall bland, this was where the spicy and savory sauce comes in. MW seemed to enjoy it so much that I genuinely believed she might consider licking the dish clean. For my part, I ordered a basmati rice bowl with curry and pork; my drink of choice was a simple can of diet Coke. The dish offered a satisfying balance of spiciness and saltiness. Despite my enjoyment, the portion left me wanting so I also ordered an extra naan. Unfortunately, the naan got soggy overtime and I could not finish it. However, with little that I had of the naan, I'm happy to say that it is a perfect naan.The dining experience would be perfect without one incident. As we started our discussion about the area and what attractions we could visit through the night, a lone man behind us interjected our conversation and recommended some wrestling match. His loud voice and assertive demeanor betray his purpose. His disruption unsettled both us and fellow diners. I hope my next visit will be a better one. I would recommend this restaurant for those who claim themselves foodies. My only complain is the parking situation, and occasional disruptive customers.
