Carmel Owens
A pleasant local surprise…the location was easy to find, and accessible via a 20-minute bus ride from my house. Our group of Returned Peace Corps Volunteers selected this restaurant for the monthly dining outing. It was absolutely delicious and did not disappoint. By the time we left it was standing room only of people waiting to be seated. Warning….if you like spicy food, DO NOT tell them you want it spicy – you will be breathing fire like a dragon, and y able to really enjoy the food. Don’t say I didn’t warn you

This was my first foray into Nepalese food. Nepalese is similar to Indian cuisine, which makes sense as the countries share a border.

Nepali dal vat was okay. But the owner/ manager was very unprofessional with his behaviour in front of customers. He was also disrespectful towards his staff. Please respect customers either Nepali American or American. Giving two stars just because the food tastes good and the server was very polite and nice.

Was impressed with the Nepalese and Bhutanese small dishes (especially the braised cabbage momo dumplings). Very unique dining experience. Pretty interior. Friendly service.

We had a phenomenal experience. We started with the pork sekuwa appetizer followed by chicken biryani, lamb saag and garlic naan for our entree. The food is incredibly delicious and the service is incredible.

Overall it was an ok experience. Papa dam was overpriced and bit too salty. The NEPALESE STYLE Chicken Curry with Onion, Tomato based sauce cooked with roasted cumin, coriander, cilantro and green onion- it was a good curry dish. For dessert I took the rice pudding which was just ok.

Beautiful restaurant, friendly service, cosy and calm atmosphere. The place looked clean and well looked after. The food is fresh and tasty, although the Daal soup and the curry sauce was a bit thin. A reasonable price for good quality Nepalese food.
