“ Best chili momo in Minnesota!! Give it a try and you won’t be disappointed. ”
“ Couldn't get a good picture before we absolutely demolished this food. Butter Chicken Masala and Chicken Curry were the best we've ever had from anywhere. The Garlic Naan was clearly homemade and fresh and crispy and was the best I've ever had anywhere. Genuinely advise you to eat here immediately. ”
“ Tried the jhol momos and choila. Both dishes were very flavorful and fresh. Went in around 4 PM and the restaurant was not busy. The service was excellent. There was free parking in front of the restaurant. ”
“ I recently dined at this Nepali restaurant and tried a variety of dishes: Wai-Wai Sadeko, Chicken Chilly Momo, Fried Momo, Jhol Momo, and Chicken Thali. I must say, every single item was a *TOP-NOTCH*! The flavors were absolutely authentic, and the taste was flawless in every dish. I was genuinely surprised at the quality—they've truly nailed the essence of Nepali cuisine. What surprised me even more was how quiet the restaurant was. People are seriously missing out on some of the best Nepali food I’ve ever had. Highly recommend this hidden gem for anyone craving authentic and delicious Nepali flavors! ”

“ just ate here for a date night and was absolutely floored. we had the vegi thali, vegi momos, malai kofta, and plain naan. the flavor was rich and the spice-level (7 of 10) was right where i like it. we will definitely be back now that we've found such a fabulous, unique place! ”
“ Went here after 4 years and they have improved so much. Food was amazing- chicken chowmin was delicious and authentic. Very friendly staff. I would only recommend them to give smaller plates on side and not just the plates of big portion food to share the dishes among the table. But im sure they would be happy to give if we asked! We will come back. ”
