2023-10-15 01:50:53It was our first time eating in this restaurant. We only ordered a (Full) Tandoori Chicken and the Himalayan Chicken rice but it was enough for my family of 4 and we even had left overs. We dont eat much but I feel like the serving we had was good for 3 adults too! The food was surprisingly good. We like our server a lot and he made sure he listened to our request to make everything mild bec our kids cant take spiciness. We will come back for sure!

2023-08-06 04:01:55This eatery is at a very nice location and draws a lot of crowd. Comforting atmosphere. Really nice friendly staff. Food is good . However the service is not very convenient. There is no order in delivering dishes.So as much as the food is good the service takes a back seat. Meaning it takes forever for some dishes to be delivered.

2023-08-20 21:54:03The restaurant was welcoming and clean. We started with samosas and naan, and had Himalayan Chicken Curry and Chicken Tikka Masala for entrees. The food was delicious and our server, Pawan, was awesome! I highly recommend… the garlic naan was by far the best I’ve ever had.

2023-10-24 21:53:11I had a delicious burrito roll (chicken naan wrap), which was super flavorful, and the portion was huge. Nepalese spices are kind of similar to Indian, but with a bit more of a tangy kick. My wife got the tandoori chicken momos, which were also great -- like Chinese xiao long bao, but roasted in a fire oven, giving the skin a nice char. (BTW, the order comes with 8 momos -- my pic shows only 4 because we had already gobbled down a few.)Service was very friendly, although the food took a little while to prepare (and we were one of only two parties there at the time) -- at least we know the food was made to order! The restaurant decor is modern and completely refurbished from the previous establishment. We will definitely come here again -- I sure hope it sticks around, considering the frequent turnover in the adjacent food court!

Highly recommend for people who like simple but flavorful food.Mustangs Aloo (Desi potato fries): Theyre nice, not a must try though.

2023-08-20 15:52:54Located at the entrance to the food court of westgate mall. It’s an unassuming nepal food restaurant that has two entrances either through the mall, or from outsideNice very lowkey vibes with a calming atmosphere.One server who is has a great charisma and personality and makes sure you are properly served.Menu has a lot of variety of nepal/indian food.We got their tandoori chicken momos which are pretty decent.Paneer curry was also delicious and very flavorfulChicken biryani is a lil spicy but the yogurt that comes with it calms the spice down.Garlic naan was fantastic and aromatic.10/10 would recommend if you ain’t feeling the food court or just wanna try something different.Also plenty of parking cuz its the mall (that’s low key dying)

2023-05-24 08:04:10This eatery offers satisfying food that would appeal to vegetarians and meat-eaters alike. The momos were served with a delicious dip and the chicken chow mein was slightly crunchy yet smooth. The chilli chicken was sweet, crispy and savory. The tasty snack with wai wai was mouth-watering. This eatery has ample space and the servers do not make the customers feel rushed.

2023-05-21 02:00:23This location is right next to Starbucks. Completely redecorated.I tried the Aloo Tikki appetizer. Very tasty, nicely spiced, crunchy crust, and a creamy interior. Highly recommended.The Lamb Rogan Josh was also excellent. It came with rice, the sauce was very good, slightly hot, and very well spiced.My wife had the butter chicken. Also very tasty and not too hot.Service was good. Theres lots more I want to try on the menu.
