The interior of the restaurant was very unique and different than any other restaurant we've been to. The server gave us a few minutes to look over the menu and came back and recommended many different dishes to us. He also asked us what our spice tolerance was and used that to give more specialized recommendations. We ordered a chicken curry dish that he said was the chef's specialty, a chicken dish that came on a hot plate, and garlic naan. The flavors were very great and we were happy with the portion size. We thought they could have given a bit more sauce with the curry since the dish they used to serve it seemed a little small but the amount of chicken in there was great. The dishes also came with rice which was nice. We'll definitely be back in the future to try out more of their menu. At the end of our meal, the chef even came out and asked us if we liked the food. The garlic naan was also very yummy. We enjoyed our time there!

We went through 3 wipes. The food tasted like thawed out and microwaved breakfast. Actually microwaved grocery store breakfast would have been better. I didn't take a picture because I didn't think I would leave a review. But after eating half of it, I thought I owed it to fellow travelers to at least post about our experience.

We ordered an Americano and an iced dirty chai. Both were great. The woman behind the counter who served us was friendly and efficient. An added plus: the price of the coffee is very reasonable, especially given the quality.

Steve liked his dish as well (though I can't quite remember what it is)! We got some Garlic Naan to go along with our meal. It was huge! But we chowed it down and loved every moment of it! From the bar which I think is called the Yeti Bar we got some Saffron infused cocktails. The one I picked was the Madras. It wad very good and this type of vodka added a great, unique dimension to the cocktail. We loved it!

But Indian-Nepali Kitchen is one of Seattle's most sought-after spots for affordable eats. But don't sleep on the rest of INK's broad menu of South Asian fare -- The Infatuation magazine even considers it to be one of the best restaurants in the city, full stop. INK shares a strip mall with a bodega and nail salon. Black cushioned chairs are pressed up to lacquered wood tables, and the tan walls are decorated with an assortment of cultural tchotchkes. Bollywood music videos play on the main dining room's single flatscreen, while images of Nepali mountain ranges flash on the screen in the accessory dining room. My partner and I dined at INK for weekday dinner on our drive up to the North Cascades, and we had the dining room to ourselves. Only a handful of takeout patrons rolled through during our visit. We kicked off our meal with the Mixed Appetizer. The Vegetable Pakora component was a consensus hit. The rich, crispy bites functioned well on their own and were fun conduits for the fragrant mint sauce and the tart tamarind sauce. In comparison, the samosas were forgettable, sporting overwhelmingly thick shells and hit-or-miss fillings. Of the three varieties, only the earthy ground lamb was worth finishing. Next, we tried the Combo Momo platter. Admittedly, the signature momos were surprisingly mediocre. Across the varieties, the wonton-like Fried Momo was the clear winner with its exciting texture without overpowering the delicate filling flavor. Meanwhile, the standard steamed momos tasted like something out of the frozen section, the Chili Momos were dominated by fast-food-quality sweet-and-sour sauce, and the Sandheko Momos had an unassuming, generally savory curry flavor (which was far outdone by the tangy side of house chutney). For our entree, we were very impressed by the Butter Curry Lamb. The thick curry broth was vibrant and dynamic; we sipped it by the spoonful. The tough lamb felt like an afterthought. The Garlic Basil Bread wasn't particularly basil-y, but the naan slices were pillowy, flaky, and addictively buttery. To drink, we shared an Iced Chai. The tea was more spiced than sweet; the average Starbucks patron might turn their nose up to it, but the light drink was a welcome contrast to the dense entrees. For dessert, we opted for the Gulab Jamun: the ping pong-sized cheese balls were deceptively dense, each packing a rich, syrupy punch. The service was quick and efficient, and our bill worked out to about $75 (after tax and tip). The flavors topped out at very good, but never quite achieved greatness. The portions were generous -- we probably could have done without the momos and still had a satisfyingly hearty meal. For a no-frills meal that will, at a minimum, be tasty, INK is a safe bet.

We went around 6pm and were able to find parking and no line for ordering. We ordered fried momo, steamed momo, chili momo, and butter momo. Took about 15 minutes. Young man at the counter was incredibly friendly and helpful with our questions. The chef is from Nepal I believe and he's kind and a wonderful cook! Chill momo was the of the show. Bursting with the flavors and spices. Each momo is coated. You'll get onions and bell peppers as well. This was my favorite of all the momo. It is spicy-ish, but everyone's spice level is different. I love spice so this I'd recommend to anyone who also enjoys spicy foods. Butter momo would be the closest to first place for me. I'd suggest this one for someone who doesn't want spicy. Similar sauce to the curry that comes with butter chicken. Sweet and creamy. They give you plenty of sauce and it's delicious. Fried & steamed chicken momo were wonderful and classic. Our friend who dined with us is from Nepal and said she believes this might be the most authentic place for momo. our/her other momo spot is Indian-Nepali kitchen. This place also had fried rice and chow mein and a couple of other options that we will certainly be back for to try. You won't regret coming here, there's no bad option on their menu and you'll leave feeling happy and full.

The dish would be an excellent appetizer to share for 3-5 easy. I would have ordered a smaller portion but maybe I missed it. Take home it is! Big enough place for several groups and the tables are spaced so it doesn't feel crowded. I arrived towards the end of the night so not busy, but still several parties. Prompt service, cozy lighting, and casual pop sounding music at conversation volume. Part of Lake Forest Park Town Center, there's plenty of parking.

We were really hungry and decided to join them as I've had this spot saved too as the reviews were pretty positive. They were definitely very popular but we were put on the waitlist but I think it would be helpful if they took peoples' numbers as apparently they would just shout it outside. We weren't aware as we went somewhere else to wait as it was very cold. When we arrived, a different employee started cleaning a table for us and we waited but then the employee who did put us down was frustrated with us as he called us and no one of us answered cause we were elsewhere. We weren't sure if we had a spot after that but luckily the employee who was cleaning was done and offered that spot. They also did drop a glass cup after cleaning nearby which was concerning but they did clean it up right away. Once we were seated, it took almost a half an hour to get some to take our order. Luckily we did get our water refilled decently but there were a few times where our empty glasses were seen and ignored. I definitely think there should be staff training as it was non-existent. I understand being busy but you're across the convention center so it should be expected. The music was also so low I didn't know it was even on, they have a loud fan going on and even their TVs have no volume. It's a pretty awkward ambiance, especially with how they try to look like they are a upscale restaurant. It did take some time to get food and it seems like the kitchen was frustrated too as I heard the bell signaling food being ready several times. The food was actually good, especially for the price. The portions are generous. We never had paratha but our friend recommended it so we got the aloo paratha while my boyfriend got their butter masala and I got their tikka masala extra hot. It wasn't really spicy at all, definitely nothing like what I've had at other Indian restaurants. The curries were flavorful with good pieces of chicken.

When you arrive parking can be a bit difficult, there is a small parking lot out front, if that's full you'll need to find street park. The restaurant itself feels warm, casual, and bustling. Queen you walk in you have the option to sit on the backyard patio or in the dining room. We opted to sit in the dining room as it just felt more intimate and the vibe we were wanting for dinner. For our appetizer, we started with the Samosas (Two crispy pastries filled with your choice of freshly mixed vegetables or delicately spiced lean ground beef) which were excellent. Next we ordered the garlic naan, chicken tikka masala, and butter chicken. The naan and samosas showed up piping hot but the chicken tikka masala & butter chicken were cold. I probably should have said something as I was disappointed but was too hungry to care at that moment. If I'm in the Seattle area I may stop by Taste of India again.
