This was recommended by a Nepalese friend. I'd had the Daal Bhat Tarkari (Thali ) with goat and it was very good and inexpensive . The the inside of the restaurant looks much better than the outside.

For authentic Nepali food stop by the Himalayan Yak. Chef Micahel Ginor says, “The Nepali snack platter is an appetizer plate with various signature snacks . It’s a good way to sample.”

Ariel Herman

Spectacular menu full of Nepalese , South Asian, and East Asian vegetarian and meat options. They have butter tea and yak momo . Try one of the platters to share. Supposedly there is live music , too.

This restaurant serves authentic Himalayan (Tibetan, Nepali, Indian) cuisine. Ask your server for food recommendations if you want it more authentic . Get momos & their Nepali chicken curry .

Village Voice

The old Tibetan specialties like la phing (a wobbly cube of mung bean jelly ) and shamdey (lamb curry ) are as good as ever. Read more

Maria Granados

Order the hot and sour soup (order it less sour) on a cold day. It'll warm you from the inside out :) delicious.

Kim B.

I know I'm going to be obsessing over the thenthuk (hearty soup with flat wide noodles ) all winter long. Hot and sour soup is aromatic and delicious.

Anthony

Try the thanthuk for a really warm and comforting soup . The tingmo bread is fantastic too

Chris Gampat

Wild boar , naan , yak, and high end Japanese whiskey . Do it.

Rewan Parti

The $9.99 weekend lunch buffet is amazing. Try their Chicken Momos and Chicken Lollipop . The food is delicious.

Ami H.

Khasi ko Bhutan (goat offal with chilis, onions , tomatoes and Himalayan herbs)

Vivian Vo

We were recommended the tea and you won't taste anything like it before. Buttery & salty.

Dikyi Ukyab

Live music , chicken lollipop , chicken momo , gyuma, and more!

Samuel Messing

Get the momos and the blood sausage .

Evangelia Giakoumatos

Vegetarian Daal Bhat Tarkari (thali ) was so good

Zach Aarons

If you really want an ethnic joint this place is perfect. Himalayan live music paired with surprisingly tender yak. Delicious! (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

Chicken lollypops.. The sauce it comes with is goooodddd. The sizzling platter is also yum!

Food was a bit disappointing. Not the kind of momos I was looking forward to. The macha tareko skip it, chips chilli is good but ugh the next morning ???? bhuttan was meh too. Try another Nepalese place

Noodles were my favorite. I can't say how authentic it is.

Curried goat , chili pork , and good Nepalese vibe! Namaste!
