My 3rd time coming to this place. I usually don't know what I am ordering and have loved everything I have gotten there. What a great gem!
Vegetarian options: I am not a Vegatarian but I almost "accidently" ate my friends vegatarian Momos because they were so good.

Went without any plans but the service we got was so perfect. Ambience was decent but mostly the food was so good . Will love to visit again ❤️

Named for a traditional, staple barley flour of the Tibetan diet, "Tsampa" (རྩམ་པ་) Restaurant offers up all the foundational Tibetan foods one would expect. I ordered the Sandeko Momos marinated in Nepali style (chilis, onions, coriander - everything tastes better with coriander), together with a Nimbu Pani (Indian style lemonade with spices). By request, the Sandeko momos were moderately spicy (about a 5 out of 10 on a spicy piquante index), with nice consistency in the meat.
The momos took a bit longer to arrive than expected. The service was down-to-earth, straightforward, and the suggestion to try the Sandeko momos was a good one. Thanks Tsampa Restaurant!
Although I chose to dine in the main sitting area, there is a cozy and spacious patio out back, which amply insulates one away from the bustle and traffic on Queen West.
Variety is the spice of life. Among the many options in Little Tibet / Parkdale for momos and more, why not give Tsampa Restaurant a try?

Our first stop on our Little Tibet journey was Tsampa Cafe, after hearing good things about the momos online. We got the beef momo soup (mokthuk) as per an online recommendation, and it was delightful! The broth is milky and savory and the momos are very hot (be careful!) and bursting with hot soup. It also had some nice vegetables. I'd definitely get this again.
The mango lassi was also good, and a bit thicker than I'm used to.
Overall I'd definitely come back to try more of their offerings!

They have the best authentic beef momo. And shabaley is great too if you like the spongy type.

I've been a regular at this Tibetan restaurant for years, and despite having other Tibetan spots nearby, I always choose this one because of its consistent taste and quality. My go-to dishes are the beef short rib curry and poori, and they never disappoint—until my recent visit.
Unfortunately, this time the beef short rib curry was watery and lacked the flavor I’ve come to love. I also tried the thali, but it had the same issue with the taste.
I’m leaving this review because I really don’t want to see my favorite restaurant lose its consistency. I've recommended this place to so many friends, so I hope this feedback helps bring back the great taste I've always enjoyed. Looking forward to returning soon!
Amazing food and very friendly staff. Highly recommend.

I Ordered a take out order 45 min prior, it was a lady who took my whole order , I went there to pick up my order after 45 min , realized they didn’t even have my order , they forgot to put my order at all .. it was all messed up in the front , they denied they even have my order . Ever since new management took over , it’s no longer the same services and same food … it’s drastically going down … I won’t be going there anymore

Was walking around looking for some dinner. We came across a few busy places in the area and this one was completely empty. We decided to give it a try and we were not disappointed. Great food and recommendations from our server. The atmosphere felt authentic with the music and hearing a bit from the kitchen. Would recommend to a friend.
Great mutton curry. They have a nice, cozy patio too, which is great in the summer

Like someone else said, we came to the area for Himalayan Kitchen but came in here since they were very busy. Tsampa Cafe was a good find for us. Good noodles, moma's, and reasonable prices. Nice little spot outside.

Getting straight to the point, I ordered takeout 3 orders of pork steam momos from this place. I couldn't figure out if the momos were pork because when I got home the momos had 2 different wrapping styles. The round ones tasted more like pork but not the other ones. And the girl didn't give any dip or achar for the momos too just the hot sauce that I asked for. Tried calling the store to know if both wrapping styles were pork but no one answered. Hope you guys improve on this, the momos tasted good but had to eat without the dip.

Great food and bang for your buck where you get refills on the thali platter. Clean restaurant and tasty food. Kitchen is a bit slow, for having only a few patrons but worth the wait.
