“ First time trying the buffet. It was delicious, and I was happy to see a variety of spicier dishes available. My partner ordered off the menu and enjoyed his food, as well. ”
“ They really have the best steamed chicken Momo's! Highly recommend. Butter chicken was fire! Chicken Malai Kebab was delicious! ”
“ I go here for the momos. The chili momos here are amazing. They offer them with chicken or cheese and both are good (I prefer the cheese). They might even have a chili veg momo but I can't remember :p The chili sauce they put on top is yummy in my tummy. When we tried the masala sauce it was acceptable (standard flavor profile) but I have a bias when it comes to masala sauce and most do not have the flavors I seek. My 5 stars are definitely for those chili paneer momos extra spicy :) if you like Central Asian cuisine it's worth a try, the prices are fair and you may even find something new :p ”
“ We had dinner here for the first time. It was very good and reasonably priced. We got the paneer pakora, namaste special chaat, dahi puri, vegetable chow mein, and naan. We also got the gulab jaman at the end and it was a great end to the meal! We liked it all. The chow mein was a little spicier than we expected, but not overly spicy. Plenty of space, service was wonderful and quick. ”
“ This is my favorite restaurant in St Louis! Their food is so flavorful, and healthy! They are super accommodating to gluten free / dairy free etc. Love getting it as takeout or also dining in as they have plenty of seating. Highly recommend! ”
“ I went there with my friends. They were very welcoming. Ordered Chicken Thali, Chilly Momo, Chicken Biryani , Butter Chicken and Butter Naan. Everything was tasty and delicious. I have had Nepali Food after quite a long time. The waitress was coming time and again to make sure that everything was all right and if there is anything else we wanted to have. I was really hungery so I had extra bowl of rice with chicken thali. The only thing I would mention to do better is the daal was thin. They should make it a little thick. Else, everything was really good. I would give them 8/10. Give it a try you wouldn’t get disappointed. ”
“ Very tasty Nepali food, and very friendly service! The chili paneer momos and the lamb biryani shahi are especially nice! ”
“ We had a great meal here. We had momo's, matar paneer, a few chicken dishes, coconut shrimp, and fried cheese. The service was great and the owner came by to see how we liked our dinner. We will be going back! ”
