Momo & Curry served as a great introduction to Nepalese food and is a great addition to Millbrae since opening August 2025. The naan, curry, and mango lassi were delicious here. Walking into this hole in the wall, I was struck by how much bigger the interior is. There's plenty of seating in the casual restaurant and pages of menu to flip through. Good service. Food & drink available: various appetizers, chow mein, biryani, curries, naan, momos (dumplings), combo rice bowls, tandoori, desserts, and beverages. They serve exclusive Timur beer which I didn't try. For a party of two, we tried: -Naan: garlic, cheese, and onion (this was more than enough) -Vegetable Jhol momo (warm, spicy, tangy broth) - Chicken curry -Mango lassi Would definitely come back to try more dishes. read more

It was a random Sunday after a hike, and we were craving curry and chicken tikka masala. We found Momo & Curry because of all the great reviews, and now we completely understand the hype. If you haven't been here yet, do yourself a favor and go! The naan was some of the freshest and best I've ever had and it was the perfect companion to the tikka masala. The curry itself was flavorful, rich, and well-balanced without being overly creamy or heavy. Puuurfect! The fried lamb momo with their signature momo sauce? Absolutely incredible. I could've ordered another plate just for myself. And whatever you do, don't skip the mango lassi! It has the perfect balance of yogurt and mango flavor. I could easily drink five of them. The restaurant is spotless, welcoming, and honestly deserves even more attention. They also have their own self-brewed Timur beer, which has a really interesting and impressive story behind it. I won't spoil it :p go check it out for yourself! The service was top-notch. Everything came out fresh in under 20 minutes, and the staff checked in on us throughout the meal without being intrusive. Highly recommend Momo & Curry. We'll definitely be back! read more

We booked a reservation here with a large party of eight and they were able to easily accommodate us. Unfortunately I didn't get pictures of all the dishes we tried, but I was able to get most. The staff were very friendly and helpful when helping us decide which dishes to order. My favorites were the mango lassi, goat biryani, and. garlic naan with the curries. The only things that lacked a bit for me was the skewers -- I was just hoping for a bit more seasoning and barbecue flavor. Overall, really enjoyed our dinner and would come back. read more

Saw other reviews and decided to try this place for a birthday dinner. Made reservations in advance for party of 8. Parking could be tricky in the area but there is a lot of turnover. As for the food, service and ambiance, I wasn't disappointed with generous portions and delicious curry, biryani, noodles, skewers and salad. Service was very good and the place is casual and great for families or small parties. Will likely go back to try some other dishes. read more

Absolute divine intervention of Nepalese chef skills embedded into authentic cuisines. The tika masala tomato base has been perfected, great blend of tomato and curry. The basmati rice also cooked to fluffiness that blends with the curry magnificently. The prized jeweled tandori Momos is something I never encountered before and this is someone who has had homecooked momos for years! The tandori essence is stir fried into the momo dumpling with a magnetic ease. The paired beer is also crisp, subtle with calm flavors. Cant wait to try other items! read more

We had two MoMo 'dumpling' s we ordered were delicious and unless other dumplings we've had before . The lamb was delicious as was the chicken masala. Difference in sauce and presentation. Must come back to try their other restaurant dishes . read more

MOMO places seem to be poppin' up everywhere, but with one so close and with good reviews, we decided to give this one a shot. We went with trying both the momo (essentially dumplings) and the biryani. (On a later visit, we got the skewer to add protein to the meal). The biryani is super good - it's one of those dishes you can just eat the entire thing in one sitting. It has both flavor and texture - and it combines beautifully that makes me hungry just writing about it. (NOTE: It did seem that the takeout portion was way bigger than the dine-in - but I've only ordered twice so far so I can't say for sure.) The momo themselves were, what I'd say, as-expected. Solid dumplings, but not like fantastic. I would take the biryani over the momo, but if you're in the mood for a lil' sumtin' dumplin' - then of course, the momo will do you right. Love that the spot is nearby and is delicious - makes dinner decisions in the future that much easier :) read more

Very distinct flavors. It's a marriage between Indian and Chinese. Their momo (pot stickers) were fat and flavorful. We added Jhol sauce. This is curry based sauce that dressed the potstickers and made it Nepalese. The momo did not taste right in my tongue. But, maybe I needed to be more open minded ? Ordered the Dhal soup. Yuuuuum... a little on the salty side. But, so flavorful and comforting. Must order when weather is cold. Chicken Biriyani. We had biriyani befoe. And their Biriyani is over the chart. There's no boring white rice. Every single grain soaked the spices perfectly. So good The butter chicken, extra spicy was a bit odd. We ordered it to be extra extra spicy. Maybe tht changed the taste of the dish? Gotta come back and give it a try. read more

Newly opened in our stomping grounds so we thought to give it a try on a Friday night. The restaurant was quite full but Ishan did his best to accomadate. Clearly short staffed but the food made up for it! We had Chicken Tandoori Momo, Nepalese Chicken Daal-Bhaat and Vindaloo chicken Plain naan. All of Def need to go back and try more items on the menu. read more

I have come here a couple times already and it's great! Service is very nice - though during busy times not that attentive- so just be patient. My family really likes the butter chicken- so creamy and delicious paired with the biryani or chow mein (the sauce is so good!) The naan is just ok- I prefer their rice and noodles. Parking can be difficult in the area during peak times. Definitely a good spot to check out if you are in the area! read more

Momo & Curry Nepal - Himalayan/Nepalese Near Me - Millbrae, California

I came here to grab lunch before a long flight from SFO. It's a restaurant in a busy, quaint part of Millbrae (in what I believe is the downtown). The restaurant wasn't too busy, but it seemed like there was a decent sized lunch rush for a weekday. It was also cool seeing staff and owners chatting with what looked like regular customers. Staff were courteous and service was quick. The food was amazing -- maybe some of the best Nepali I've had in the Bay Area. I've never had Tandoori Momos -- would 100% recommend. They were very well spiced and smoky from cooking. Absolutely delicious!! The Manchurian was also really good. Maybe a bit sweet and greasy for my taste, but very good nonetheless. Portions were also very generous for the price. I definitely ordered enough food for two people. Go here!! I'll be back when I visit San Francisco again. read more

Momo & Curry Nepal - Veggie Manchurian - Himalayan/Nepalese Near Me - Millbrae, California

One of the last few Indian spots we haven't tried close to our house and we're glad we did. The staff was super friendly and quickly seated us when we're walked in. The restaurant was filled with amazing smells and the menu was very inviting. This was the first time we saw dahi puri being offered so that was a must have. We also ordered chicken tikka masala, garlic naan, and steamed chicken momos. The food came out pretty quickly and we dug into the dahi puri immediately. Crispy on the outside and filled with goodies on the inside. Will be ordering this whenever we come here going forward! The momos were delicious and came with a dipping sauce. The garlic naan was light and fluffy, a good complement to the chicken tikka. We couldn't finish everything but took the rest to go. Love finding a new place we can pull into the regular rotation. read more

Great addition to downtown Millbrae. First Himalayan cuisine good in Millbrae I think. There's always been the Indian spot down the street. Pretty spacious spot, mainly tables for four and two that can combine for bigger parties. Also pretty sweet they have a liquor license. Tried one of there appts that was a yogurt filled crispy thing, sorry forgot what it was called. Looks like a fried dough ball but it's like a cream puff but with yogurt instead. The chicken momo was in the jhol version. I think I'm way to use to dumplings bring pipping hot but these came out warm and ready to consume without worrying about burning your mouth. The sauce reminded me of the numbing Sichuan peppercorn. They were delicious, could've just ordered just Momo's for a meal and be fine with it. Shrimp biriyani was also good. There was a sauce that came with it but I didn't catch the name. It paired very well with it. Would definitely come again to try out all their other offerings read more

Pleasantly surprised by this cute restaurant less than 10 minutes from the San Francisco airport. They served generous portions for lunch and everything was really good. The Gobi Manchurian was definitely my favorite dish. The cauliflower was lightly battered, firm and had the perfect amount of Manchurian sauce. I also really enjoyed the vegetable Biryani - the fried onions on the top were a nice surprise and it was packed with cauliflower, peas, peppers and carrots. Finally, the vegetable Samosa was as you'd expect but still quite delicious. I ordered everything mild but if I ever go back I'd add a little more. heat. read more

The food was delicious! Both the Lamb Curry and Lamb Biryani were flavorful and tender. Please note that the curry does not come with bread, so we ordered the Garlic Naan separately--it was super fresh and definitely worth it! We arrived around 1:00 PM, and the atmosphere was very quiet and peaceful. We didn't have to wait for a table at all. Great service and very clean. Highly recommend! read more

First time a hit. This is no one hit wonder tho. We tried it a few weeks of opening, and we were surprisingly happy we ate there. So much so, that we have gone many times with friends and family. Usually a new restaurant take months to work out the kinks and stabilize their dishes to where its consistent and tasty. No problems here. Never a bad experience. Nepalese food is spicy (can be adjusted) with lots of curry and seasonings. The dishes are cooked so to awaken your tongue's senses. Nepal is close to India, so they offer naan bread (yum). Momo is a great place if you are a vegetarian. The manager is usually on site and takes the time to meet their customers. The decorum is pleasant, but not over the top. It's a good place for family meals and meeting with friends. Majā linuhōs (enjoy) ****************************** This is my rating system to help you gauge my rating.

What a fabulous meal and experience. From the warm and friendly welcome to the delicious food and attentive service throughout the meal. My daughter and I ordered the lamb momos, lamb coco curry, gobi chili, sesame naan, and several Nepalese beers. Loved the flavors of all the dishes especially the lamb coco curry. While the food was wonderful, the service took it to the next level. Roshan and Shree were checking in on us regularly and even gave us samples of their home brewed beers and hot sauces. The Timur and Jalapeño beers were unique, crisp, and refreshing. The hot sauces were flavorful and diabolically hot. Please give this place a try, you'll surely add it to your favorites list like we did. read more

We went to Momo & Curry for a weekend dinner and absolutely loved it. Everything we ordered was excellent , my fav was chilly chicken and egg noodles. They had some options for kids as well which was appreciated. The Biryani and Momos were delicious. We ordered the Biryani hot which was quite spicy for us even though we have quite high spice tolerance so keep that in mind :D We also enjoyed the Nepali Beer. Happy to have a great new restaurant around us read more

This location has gone through a few changes with different Indian owners. Momo and Curry Nepal has a lot of IndioChinese additions to their menu. Their momos are good, though we forgot to take a picture. The chicken vindalooo, though mild, was very flavorful with rich notes of all the amazing spices. The sauce was bold and the chicken was tender. The naan, though small and thin, was very fresh and chewy. I need to try more item from their menu. One thing to note is that they DO NOT have a buffet at any time of the day so please take note as I had to call to verify this information. read more

Momo & Curry Nepal was one of the friendliest local businesses I've visited in a long time! The staff here was super hospitable, proudly showcasing their Nepali heritage through their dishes. The Combo Skewer plate came with boneless chicken and lamb pieces, marinated in yogurt and Himalayan spices, and grilled to juicy perfection in a tandoor oven. The skewers were served with marinated and grilled broccoli, onion, and peppers, and served with salad and mint sauce on the side. I also had the Goat Daal Bhaat, a complete Nepali meal that came with rice, tadka dal, achar (spiced potato and vegetables), broccoli, goat curry (bone in chunks in a spiced onion gravy), and gulab jamun, all served on a round metal platter. The meal was balanced and satisfyingly delicious, and the flavors were all authentic (except for the broccoli, which for some reason they substituted for raayo ko saag). Overall, the food here was worth 4 out of 5 stars, but the amazing service definitely gives this small business a boost! read more

Never really tried Nepalese food before. This was a pleasant surprise. Ordered steamed chicken momos, child mango chicken, lamb kebab and chicken fried rice. All were delicious. Naan bread was great. Staff was friendly and accommodating since my wife has an allergy to onions, chili and peppers. Highly recommended. Grandson ate the chicken fried rice almost by himself read more

Service was great!!! & food was good too but there were kids running around like it was a playground. There was one point where a kid was standing on one of the booths... like i was hoping the workers would say something but they didn't :( the whole time the kids just kept running and entirely ruined my meal! I remember the cup or the fork had stuff on it so i had to ask for another one :/ read more

Walked past yesterday and decided to give them a try. Really solid food and highly recommend the curries and momos... well that's in their name lol. All the curries come with rice so that's a plus. I believe they're the same owner as the one in San Mateo that I used to frequent and was addicted to their chickpea chicken wings. I believe they have those at this location too but I totally forgot to order!! Darn! The mango lassi was really thick and yogurt like, tasty. Anyway thumbs uppppp! read more

Momo & Curry Nepal is a fantastic Nepalese/Indian restaurant run by a super nice family. Compared to other similar restaurants we have been to in the area, the portions were more generous, prices reasonable and the food was better. Everything we had was good. The dishes we ordered mild were mild and the hot were hot (but not over the top hot). Coconut curry chicken was delicious. Momos were very good. Chicken Manchurian also delicious. Also a very clean restaurant. Give it a go! read more

The food is delicious here. Saw this spot during arts and wine weekend for soft opening. Tried this place for an event and I enjoyed this new local spot in Millbrae. After the event I came back to get more dinner here again with friends and it did not disappoint. The food is on par with the service was still excellent. The food came out fairly quick. Lots of table space. They are also open late if you're hungry later in the evening when everything else in Millbrae is closed. Definitely a new place to return for some delicious meals read more

I came here with my girlfriend and we enjoyed the food very much. I spoke with the chef and appreciated his dedication to cooking.

I will definitely return due to the hospitality and great food. read more

We just dropped by and got sit immediately. ! The place was clean & well designed! We ordered the veggie Momos, Puri, mixed Tandoori & mango lassi. Momos were tasty!

All dishes were good choices! Can't wait to try different dishes next time. read more

From the moment I walked in, I knew this place was special. The warm hospitality, cozy atmosphere, and aroma of spices immediately transported me straight to the heart of Nepal. Every dish was a burst of flavor and authenticity -- the momos were perfectly steamed with juicy fillings, the thukpa comforting and rich, and the dal bhat a true taste of home-cooked perfection. What really stood out was the attention to detail -- every plate beautifully presented, the balance of spices just right, and the staff genuinely passionate about sharing Nepalese culture through food. It's rare to find a place that feels both elevated and heartwarming at the same time. Whether you're new to Nepalese cuisine or a longtime fan, this restaurant is an absolute must-visit. I'll definitely be coming back (and bringing friends next time!). read more
