40. chicken jhol momo
Lhamu H.

I've been here couple of times. The food is decent so I went here again on Sunday afternoon. There were 3 tables seated before me and they were waiting for their food. I went in and it took a while to get server's attention. They had only one server looking after everything so I didn't make a fuss about it . I waited and then got seated and had to ask for menu and then wait some more and then i got to order . The food came out pretty fast. Only 3 star because management could do better.

We got the: - French fries - Vegetarian chow mein - Sake The food was delicious, I especially loved how crispy their fries were. My only note was that it was a touch too oily for me. I liked the chow mein too, it was hearty and came in a pretty big portion. The staff were very attentive as well. I'd recommend this place.

3.5 stars. Lakeside NYC is a new entrant into a rapidly growing Newari Nepali food scene in Queens (and by rapidly growing, I mean 2 restaurants). I liked Newa Chhe in Sunnyside better, but Lakeside NYC is not a bad option in this neck of the woods. While I'm not an expert in the region, it seems one of the signature dishes of the area is aloo tama, a fermented bamboo sabzi that I can't admit I've developed a taste for. We liked the other items in the thali, including the other funkier achaars and the daal. The best item of the meal was the bara, which is in some ways reminiscent of the moonglets that are especially popular in the NCR - a delicious fluffy yet crispy lentil based pancake served with a tomato-based chutney. Our least favorite? The veg momos which seemed to use an odd processed cheese as part of the filling.

We came here for the 12th annual momo crawl to try their traditional steamed momos. We had a few folks tell us that this was their running favorite. The line was insane and they ran out of momos when we were next in line. Noooo! The beef momos came out in 5 mins but were definitely undercooked, the meat was pink with that undercooked mushy and not springing consistency. When we pointed this out, they said 'no, 20 mins cook time". Really? You don't take the temperature to test? That is food safety 101. So, after that 1st bite (most people just pop them in their mouth so may not have noticed they were undercooked) we lost our appetite. We also no longer pop a whole momo into our mouth!!!! May just have been for this day to keep up with the endless demands for momos, but not sure I am keen to return.

Amazing food, great portions!

We're so happy to have Lakeside recently added to our neighborhood restaurants here in JH! All very yummy dishes with bold and well-balanced flavors. Their momos are stuffed with tons of meat and you can pick from 5 different ways to cook them. Can't go wrong with any of them, but we especially enjoy the fried on the bottom and the Johl momos so far. Chicken chili is also amazing, and their Thali spreads are so fun to taste and try. Definitely will be back!

Food was good kind oily! Service was good and there were only one person so it was hard for her to do all the job for every table. Took a while to get certain things. Overall good experience!

Nice ambiance. Great service. Drinks were alright, bar doesn't appear to be a full bar. Does have mocktails.

Went here on a Saturday for a friend's birthday brunch, and it was such a great experience. When we…read morearrived, the hostess guided us to one of their private rooms downstairs, which was spacious enough to comfortably fit around 20-25 people--perfect for a group celebration. We had our own dedicated server, which made everything feel really seamless. They kept our drinks flowing the entire time, and it was a huge plus not having to flag anyone down. For food, I ordered the chicken sandwich and it was delicious. The coleslaw on it added great flavor (honestly, I just wish there was a bit more of it). It came with fries that were perfectly crispy--exactly how fries should be. Overall, I had a really enjoyable time. If I'm ever back in the neighborhood or if anyone asks me for a good brunch spot for groups, I'd definitely recommend this place.

It was a perfect day for a weekday brunch outdoors, and though the sun was beaming on our faces…read moreuntil we couldn't open our eyes, the weather was a breath of fresh air. My partner started off with a bloody mary which he thoroughly enjoyed (and considered opting for a bottomless brunch option until i reminded him that he drove here). I got the lemon ricotta pancakes which was pleasantly sweet, without the drizzle being too overpowering. The fresh fruits complimented the fluffy stacks of pancakes and was perfect for a light meal. My partner on the other hand, was famished and ordered the steak and eggs which he happily devoured. Service was great, our server was very attentive and never had us wait. I would highly recommend coming here for brunch!
