Dined with two friends recently. Momos were delicious - I had the Chili Momos - chicken option. So delicious - nice size serving to share as an appetizer. I had the Chow Mein with chicken as my main. I asked for spicy and it was nicely seasoned but not very spicy. My friends both had the Butter Chicken with rice and naan. Overall the food was very good quality and tasty and the service friendly and efficient - will definitely return!

I tried Menali by coincidence and was honestly surprised by how excellent it turned out to be. The food was absolutely delicious, full of rich flavors and perfectly prepared, and the service was outstanding — attentive, friendly, and welcoming. It’s one of those hidden gems you’re glad you stumbled upon, and I’ll definitely be coming back again

I recently got takeout from Menali for the first time, and everything we got was delicious! Everything tasted very fresh and flavourful. Portion sizes were reasonable. The only thing I would love to see is to have menu items labelled (gluten free/vegan/dairy free, etc). I will definitely be eating here again!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Absolutely Perfect Lunch!

My husband and I tried this restaurant for lunch and were blown away by the entire experience. The service was excellent—attentive and very friendly.

Now, the food! This was some of the best and most warming Indian cuisine we've ever had. I started with a Mango Lassi that was absolutely splendid; so creamy and perfectly sweet. We ordered the Aloo Gobi, which was flavourful and comforting, and it was accompanied by a fresh, just-made Naan that was soft, warm, and delicious, also hot comforting lentil soup.
We will definitely be back soon. Highly recommend

LOVE this restaurant! Amazing food, great service, nice ambiance. Tandoori chicken momos are the best I've ever had! Great take-out lunch specials too. Chana masala is spiced to perfection and not swimming in liquid. Been many times and will be back again soon.

The lamb karahi with lacha paratha maybe the best Indian dishes I've ever had.
The india bottle of beer tasted stale.

Absolutely amazing! The flavors were rich, authentic, and perfectly balanced — every dish tasted fresh and made with care. The spices were spot-on. The staff were warm, attentive, and made us feel truly welcome. Easily one of the best Indian dining experiences I’ve had — can’t wait to come back!

Eastern European here married to an Indian. I don’t eat spicy foods and he is always looking for traditional dishes that bring back home flavored memories. Menali is just that for us! We order dinner at least once a week and absolutely love it. The food is always extremely tasty and authentic. The service is impeccable. The price could not be more affordable (especially if you pick up yourself and pay cash). The best Indian and Nepali food on the east side, by far!!!
