Jhapali Kitchen & Bar

Fantastic Food, fantastic service, very good atmosphere. I love coming here! Highly recommended!

A hidden gem!! It’s a little tucked back in a corner but don’t over look this place!! The food and service was everything I had hoped for and more. Inside is bright and open with subtle sports-bar vibes, and the culturally spot-on music set the mood perfectly. We were greeted warmly, seated immediately, and served a chilled carafe of water.

The menu is a bit long and not the most organized, but packed with both Indian dishes and Nepalese specialties. We started with Samosa Chaat, Chatpate, and Chicken Momo dumplings, and genuinely couldn’t eat them fast enough—fresh, flavorful, and exciting with every bite. Then came the butter chicken with homemade garlic naan, and we “mmm’d” through the entire meal.

Warm staff, clean space, reasonable prices, and a full bar (though I didn’t drink this time). This place knocked our socks off. Don’t pass it by—come in for a truly delicious homemade feast!

Pick up some food from there and it was one of the worst food that I have ever tried. Never thought people will make a living selling this kind of food. Compared to other Restaurant around locally, the taste here is just neglected. I so sorry but the food is not worth the money.

Living in the area temporarily and decided to stop by based on a recommendation by a friend. Got a Taj beer, Chicken Chili Momo, and Samosas. The momo had a great spice and tasted to it and you get quite a few for the price. The samosas were also great, crisp with fresh ingredients inside. I left full and happy. The service was also excellent here. Come check this place out!

By far this is our favorite local Indian restaurant. The food is ALWAYS fresh and the service is ALWAYS pleasant and prompt. My main is the Chicken Curry. My wife’s main is the Lamb Korma. Always with a side of Garlic Naan. The Mango Lassi is delicious! Also, I don’t know how they do it, but the carafe of water is the best water I’ve ever tasted.

I'm not sure what happened based on the other reviews this should have been better. The food we got looks nothing like it should and the flavor is way off. The carrot pudding was separated and swimming in ghee or oil. The creamed spinach with cheese looked terrible like milk with a few strands of spinach.

The food was really amazing especially pork sekwa was mind blowing. And service was really good. The people there was friendly with good attitude.

Bad quality food, mediocre taste, strong food coloring smell in biryani rice, naan bread does NOT look, feel or taste like naan (dry, thick, overcooked, stale), AND I got a small HAIR sitting on an onion slice when I opened the biryani container lid. Not returning. Not recommending.

We used to order regularly from this restaurant throughout 2023, but unfortunately stopped after noticing a significant decline in quality and quantity. Recently ordered zhol momos, and the portion was extremely small compared to before. The aloo parathas were the worst we’ve had — lacking both flavor and freshness. It’s disappointing to see such a drop from the standards they once maintained. Serious improvements are needed if they want to regain customer trust and stay competitive.

This is my go to when I can't make mind up. When I tell this is the best Indian cuisine around

Excellent food and lovely people.

We have eaten here numerous times, they have good food and I like to support local businesses BUT they continue to mess up my orders. They need to train their cooks and servers.

I just ordered mild butter chicken for my daughter and it says "mild" on the receipt. However, it's very spicy and my daughter can't eat it. I like spicy food and I think it's hot. I called them to complain and they blew me off and said that's how they make it. Not acceptable, do better.
