We wanted to order from Moh Moh Licious, but it literally closed 3 minutes from when we were trying to order so we settled for this spot. And I'm sad we did, because the food was NOT good. We ordered - Impossible meat momos 3/5 - they were okay...not the best and not the greatest. The flavor was hiding and the momo did not stay in tact at all. The sauce that they served alongside did not enhance the momo at all. Veggie momo 3/5 - again, they were okay. In fact, I think these were worst than the impossible meat momos. Didn't seem like there was any flavor and just veggies mushed together with salt and pepper. Raita 3/5 - way too liquidy for my liking. I thought they would at least provide rice, but no. So it was just basically liquid yogurt with a couple of strips of cucumbers and carrots. Paneer chili 0/5 - the container literally said 'paneer chili' and after 2/3 bites, I asked my friend if this was actually paneer because it was kind of chewy? Of course it wasn't and it was chicken!! I'm vegetarian so I was so disappointed that they put the wrong item in our order, especially since the container explicitly said paneer. This morning I woke up with a terrible stomachache. The food definitely did not sit right with me. I'm definitely going to skip this place and try Moh Moh Licious next time. read more

We came on a Friday evening with a large group (8 people) and made a reservation in advance. The service was really great, especially considering our large party. Highly recommend the buffalo and pork jhol momos, they were my favorite dishes of the night. The biryani was also very aromatic and flavorful, and the gobi manchurian was delicious. The goat curry in the dhindo thali was a bit too spicy for me, but still good flavor-wise. I also recommend the chaang, a type of fermented rice drink, which is slightly sweet and goes well with the spicy foods. read more

Came here with a large group of friends and the restaurant was able to accommodate all of us! We shared the buffalo and pork jhol momos, combo biryani, and the gobi manchurian. Everything was delicious, especially the biryani imo! One friend has a severe dairy allergy and they were able to check the ingredients in everything for us. We also shared a pitcher of the chaang which I wasn't sure I was going to like since I'm not a sake girl but I actually loved it. Was very easy to sip due to it's mild and slightly sweet flavor. And I got the dhindo thali with goat curry which was delicious! Never had dhindo before but it reminded me of fufu. I love trying new things. Goat curry was delicious but the goat pieces weren't as tender as I would have liked. The pickles and veggies were also delicious. The tandoori naan is ok, super thin and not very flavorful - reminds me more of a roti. Prices are a bit high ($27 for my thali) but it's doable if you share a bunch of dishes with friends. Overall I'd come back here. read more

I'm not a huge fan of Indian food, but I was with a group that likes it so I was up for giving it a try. We ordered a wide range of dishes to share. They were generally pretty good, but in my limited experience with Indian food, I have definitely had better. The ambiance of the restaurant was a little underwhelming, but it was fine. Overall , not a bad experience, but it just isn;t my favorite kind of food. read more

The best Indian food in the area! The service and vibe of the place is great, but parking can be a nightmare so arrive early.

Nancy and I had eaten here before, many years ago, but this past weekend we can with a Nepali friend to guide us through the menu. We had a pitcher of an alcoholic beverage called cchyang (sp uncertain) which was mild-tasting but strongly alcoholic. We had three appetizers of various degrees of spice, all of it accompanied by beaten rice, which I am pretty sure we have never had before. Then the main dish was a goat curry served with a solid mass of carbohydrate made of ground buckwheat called dhindo, which our friend assured us was very authentic. The goat curry was flavorful, as were many of the sides that came on the platter with it, but the dhindo I could do without. Much more to explore on the menu. I assume we will be back The place was fairly empty when we arrived at 6 PM but by 7:30 it was packed. Reservation was definitely needed read more

Delicious Nepalese restaurant in Adams Morgan! I love Nepalese food and try to eat it often; this restaurant lived up to the hype for sure. The momos were a great start with a very hearty filling--they did not taste like a bland veggie dumpling in any way! For entrees, we ordered the thali and the butter chicken. Both came with perfectly cooked chicken in gorgeous sauces. Our service was extremely prompt, which was great since we were in a hurry. And the interior was beautiful and pretty empty too. Definitely come check this restaurant out! read more

Decent place, food was good , I think the strength here was to get less of the "indian stuff" and more of the other stuff. The chicken tika was very tomato based ,which some love but the classic indian flavor wasn't there for me! Also, not a lot of chicken. The chicken biryani was an original blend , not the best but interesting enough to say its good, Cozy little spot not a bad place to grab a bite . Service was good . read more

I'm not a huge fan. The location is really nice, but the food is very average. The Momos tasted like trader Joe's' dumplings. The waitstaff was unable to answer any questions, such as what does fried vs. pan friend mean when it comes to Momos? Are fried Momos deep fried? The staff was anxious to take our order and almost pushing us too. We felt that was very unnecessary. read more

I left feeling full and happy. This place is the real deal. I came here with 2 of my friends and they were both impressed by the food. We ordered 1 appetizer (gobi manchurian) and 2 entrees (paneer masala and veggie jhul momos) which was plenty for us. The vibe of this restaurant is really nice, and service was quick. I usually drink water quickly, and they refilled it every time. There was hand sanitizer on each table, which every restaurant should do. This is how we rated each dish: 4.5 - gobi manchurian. This was crispy and a little spicy, but delicious. Highly recommend! 3 - paneer masala. This was a bit more plain but a classic. I think this was more of a miss because it's a bit sweeter than we would have preferred. They could've added more vegetables in it, it was just plain paneer. If you want another vegetarian entree with a bit more spice and flavor, I would recommend the eggplant dish instead. 4.5 - jhul momos. I'm not vegetarian but I actually prefer the veg momos over the chicken. I believe the jhul momos had cabbage in it, and my friend and I usually don't like cabbage but this was delicious. 4.5 - garlic naan. Bread could've been softer but I liked the garlic coating. It was crispy, just not as fluffy as it could've been. 3.5 - mango lassi. In my opinion, lassi could've been sweeter. Overall, 5/5 restaurant. Second time coming, and hopefully won't be the last. read more

Yummy yummy food, many fantastic vegan/veggie options! The plant based momos in particular are so good. Service is nice, employees are always very polite read more

Very good South Asian restaurant focusing on Himalayan/Nepalese/North Indian cuisine. The momos are excellent and a highlight of the menu. We enjoyed the Gobi Manchurian as well. The curries are extremely well balanced and the restaurant doesn't overwhelm you with oil in any of the entrees. Service was solid (though we did have to flag our waiter a few times which wasn't a big deal). Prices are very reasonable. read more

This was my first foray into Nepalese food. Nepalese is similar to Indian cuisine, which makes sense as the countries share a border. We tried the chicken momo dumplings and the Nepalese style curry. The chicken momo was good, though in my mind I would have wanted those more as an appetizer than a main dish. The curry consisted of a choice of protein and then onions in a tomato-based sauce cooked with roasted cumin, coriander, cilantro, and green onion. Since I selected chicken the dish was $19. I would have liked there to be more ingredients than meat and sauce in the curry, but that's not a restaurant-specific opinion. The curry was made-to-order, and the chicken was well cooked. The space is in a fun area and decorated with interesting art and murals. If you're seated in the alcove, you can sit on decorated pillows. read more

Our group of 10 called ahead to make a reservation for a Friday night at prime dinner time. The staff was more than happy to accommodate our large group. They even called the morning of to confirm our reservation. When we arrived, we were immediately sat by our server. She brought us menus and took our drink orders. Having to come back multiple times for the children's drink orders. She gave us plenty of time to go over the menu and was patient as we asked questions. Our water cups were never empty. Multiple staff members came by to fill our cups as soon as they got low. Which was frequently, as we had been walking around DC all day. We ordered a variety of food. The appetizers consisted of: Bhatmas Sadeko, Pork Sekuwa, Chatamari, and a bread basket. We agreed that all of them were deleicious. But the stand-out star was the Chatamari. For entrees, the kids got chow mein noodles as their tolerance of spice and new foods was pretty low. They received hefty portions that could have easily been shared by two. The Napalese Chicken Curry was the overall winner, followed by butter chicken, Chicken Tikka, and Tikka Masala. This was the best food we've had so far this trip. We will be coming back anytime we are in DC. At the end, our server brought us to go containers. And then split the bill 4 ways for us. (Which was probably a HUGE inconvenience, but they never made it seem that way.) While we were waiting to pay, the owner came by to refill our waters. He was so kind. read more

I opted for this place because the place I wanted to go had bad reviews. So I walked a mile farther to go here. I read that this was almost a mix between Indian and Chinese which can only be a plus. I ordered the karahi, pork momo and chicken curry. I chickened out on the goat. Next time. I walked in and was welcomed and given a menu to order take out. They answered all the questions and were very nice. The order took about 20 mins. I couldn't wait to try Nepalese food for the first time. It did not disappoint. Nothing was too spicy. The flavors were great. The momo was tasty with some spicy sauce for dipping. Tender and tasty. The chicken curry was flavorful and the pieces were big squares of white meat. The karahi was lamb and chicken cooked in a very flavorful sauce. Both were sliced thin and soaked up the juice well. The chicken was good but the lamb had almost a buttery taste and the sauce complimented it really well. I would definitely make a trip here again. read more

The Bhatmas is a revelation. Get it with the Vindaloo. The saag paneer is also tremendous. Samosas are always crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. And the restauranteurs really care about the customers. 5/5 read more

A quiet, relaxing experience of Nepalese and Himalayan cuisine within Adam's Morgan. Buddha statues and paintings adorn the walls, and the wooden floor adds a rustic appearance. Incense candles mix with the delicious curries and spices. The mango lassi is very tasty, though in my opinion the portion of the glass is quite small for the price ($5). In fairfax I can get the same amount (if not more) for $2.99. The fried cauliflower is a delicious appetizer served with onions and a sweet chili sauce that packs a kick. Nepalese style curry lamb is rich in flavor and spices and the manchurian styled dumplings are served with a sweet tomato soup style sauce. The customer service was superb, and if you're like me and your phone is perpetually low on battery, you can ask the waiter - they have iPhone chargers! read more

Momo jhol is awesome! The service is great and the food is amazing. There are lots of good options for both vegan and non-vegan.

Loooved the garlic naan and paneer and chicken tikka masalas! Can order dishes in mild, medium, or spicy. Medium was perfect for me. Great atmosphere with decorations and low-light. Perfect for a casual date or out with friends and family. Staff was kind and attentive, filling our water before we ever asked. Would definitely come back again and recommend to others. read more

I ordered lunch at 12:30pm for delivery, which took about an hour. The restaurant is in Adams Morgan, and I work in downtown DC. The wait was reasonable, given the likely traffic and lunch rush. I ordered veggie pakora, chana masala (with rice), plain naan, and palak chaat to reach the $25 delivery minimum. The pakora were fresh, crispy, well-battered, and delicious. A tangy, tasty orange sauce accompanied it. The palak chaat was unsatisfactory. The spinach was too wet, too salty, and not seasoned evenly. There was also not enough yoghurt on it. It's not a dish to order for delivery evidently. I'd try it again as an in-restaurant order. The chana masala was also not appetizing. The chickpeas were definitely from a can (I know that can-water taste from making botched chana masala a hundred times at home!) and not simmered in the chana masala sauce long enough. The plain naan was dry, minimally buttered, and chalky. I didn't enjoy the taste at all and discarded it because the carbs weren't worth it. The delivery man was friendly and energetic and easy to find. I think my experience would be improved if I dined in and had all the food immediately. Even with a 3 rating, I would return! read more

Have lived in the area for several years but had never been here before.Our loss.This place was fantastic. It has a very warm cozy atmosphere and they have really recreated the Nepali vibe.Even the music is soothing and relaxing and not some random Bollywood song in the background. I felt like I was eating home cooked food.I'm Indian and appreciate the fact that I was eating what felt like authentic Nepali cuisine.Spice level was perfect and not too Spicy and above all non greasy. We ordered the vegetarian jhol momo and I had a lovely vegetarian thali.Can't remember what they call it in Nepali. Service was 5 star. They just got themselves a customer who will return for the delicious food! read more
