    What we ordered: 1: Shadhaklep, Shrimp Chili Garlic Fried Rice and Chicken Fried Rice 2: Shrimp Chili Garlic Fried Rice 3: Fried Beef Momo (8 pcs) 4: Chicken Fried Rice 5: Steamed Beef Momo (8 pcs) 6: Spicy French Fries Om Wok is highly recommended as one of the main restaurants to visit during the Momo Crawl. We decided to order their steamed and fried beef momos and they did not disappoint! Dumplings are HUGE, come in hungry! We stated off with the spicy french fries which were very crunchy and addicting. The Shadhaklep, which is a fried pie with beef filling was delicious. We also had the shrimp chili garlic fried rice and chicken fried rice and both dishes were super flavorful and filling. Overall...not only did this place have delicious food but it was also extremely affordable! We definitely recommend you giving it a try if you're ever in Jackson Heights, Queens!

    This review is for the Jackson Height location. I took some of my friends who were visiting New York to try tibetian food. We went there on a saturday night and this place is small with both indoor and outdoor seatings. Everytime i went there, the foods were very salty, but this time it was good. I am south asian so i eat spicy food, but it was very spicy for me. We got beef momo and i felt like it got way too big, but juicy. Some aloo dum ( potatoes), pork chilly with tingmo, beef shyabhaley and C. Momo. Service was fast, but we ordered a lot of food, so had to take it to go.

    Breakfast set

    Really good breakfast and very reasonable prices as well. Customer service was good and it was not busy when I was there so didn't have to wait for long!

    Pretty yummy comfort food in the heart of Jackson Heights. Went here w a few friends for lunch and it was a memorable experience. We got the momos of course and I wasn't expecting it to taste like a warm hug around my tongue. The fries had a kick to it as well as the rice. The seating itself is very limited however they provide take out as well. I will be coming back to try out what else they have to offer!

    The food is very good and inexpensive. I had a veg thenthuk and potato cheese spinach momo. The momos were cooked to just the right chewiness with a creamy filling. The noodle soup was warm and slightly tart, with chewy noodles and vegetables. The chili oil provided at the table was a nice accompaniment. There is very limited seating so taking out might be for the best when it is busy.

    I only ordered take out food for pick up from here once. We were craving momos and ended up getting the beef momos. One plate which included about 8 large momos was $10. I'm used to having the smaller momos so when I had Om Wok's momos I was shocked at the size. They're huge and one plate is definitely shareable among two. They do have soup in them which tasted great. Their red sauce definitely gives a kick so be weary how much you put on your momos. The momos we had were good but definitely large and can be messy to eat haha.

    This is a nice little hidden hole in the wall restaurant just off Roosevelt Blvd. Only enough seating for maybe 12 people and two tables outdoors. Food is delicious and at a great value. There's a reason why they won the Momo Crawl award twice. Will definitely come by again.

    This place has previously won the Momo Crawl competition and I can understand why. Their Momos are juicy and huge! I had the beef momos and surprisingly it has soup inside which was so flavorful. You should use the spicy sauce provided on the side, definitely not for the weak on the spice but is so addicting. $10 is such a steal for such big momos. This is a small store with some seating, cute place would come back again Friendly and attentive service, and it seems like it's family run?

    Boiled Beef Momos & spicy tripe
    Jennifer M.

    Om Wok was voted to have the best Momos in the 2022 Momo Crawl. We arrived here around 8pm on a Friday and the restaurant had one occupied table. We were seated right away and ordered the beef Momos and spicy tripe. It felt like a mom and pop shop as there was only one person working the registers and serving / hosting the restaurant. The beef Momos were much bigger and juicier than I anticipated. They taste amazing with the hot sauce provided. The spicy tripe was also an interesting yet addicting dish. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant.

    stick to what you know..i dont recommend getting noodles or chinese takeout here. go across the street or you'll be disappointed. i only recommend the MOMOS, LOLLIPOP CHICKEN and other tibetan dishes. nothing else

    This has been my go to spot since I moved to the area for work in Oct. The customer service and consistency can't be beat. This is my initial foray into Nepalese/Tibetan food and after a few visits I was asked whether I would like to try some of the home style items and I would have been an idiot NOT to give em a shot. My favs have been the spicy beef with the mixed veg. It's been my go to so much so that when I was in the hostess put's in my order while I get a seat and go wash up. Please so support this fantastic small business.

    8 Piece Momo, Kai Chi, c momo
    Roger H.

    Came here after hearing that this place won the 2022, momo crawl and ordered a wide variety of things here. Ordered the chilli momos, chilli chicken (kai chi) along with the steamed beef momos. While the chilli momo and kai chi were decent they werent all that memorable, the stand out star of the show here is definitely the steamed beef momos! Had my fair share of momos but ive never had momos that were as juicey, umami filled and as rich as the ones ive had here. It reminded me of a weird hybrid of a momo with soup dumplings almost with how much juice was in it. This along with all the condiments to go along with the momos, i could see why they were the 2022 winners

    Anyone tried both locations, the one near 74 street and the other on northern boulevard? Would like to know if both locations are just as good

    The one in Northern Boulevard is much better than the one near the 74th Street.

    Another stop on my first Jackson Heights food tour. This Nepalese spot offers Nepali foot,…read moreBhutanese food, Tibetan food, and Indian food. The food types are similar but offer different spice/flavor profiles. They have a large section of noodles, soup, and rice. A veggie section with various combos of cauliflower, potatoes, onion, bamboo, blackened peas, mustard greens, and spices. Some of the Indian dishes: paneer butter masala, palak paneer, chicken tikka masala. Some of the appetizers include crispy tofu, fried soybeans, a Nepali snack platter with marinated meat, goat, beef tripe, sliced beef tongue, fried jerky, duck. They also have a momo section. We had their famous chicken lollipops (essentially fried chicken) and it was crispy and spicy (in a good way). We also had sadeko (marinated or tossed) bacon, which was rich and tender. I had one of their Nepali cocktails, which was pleasantly spicy (the chatpata aam, made with tequila, spicy chatpatey syrup, and mango puree). Service was attentive. Inside is cozy, lots of dark wood and colorful flags. They also often have entertainment in the evening, so I would love to return to hear some live music while trying more Nepali cuisine.

    A bit overrated and overshadowed by the nice ambiance…read more I may be biased since I've been to Nepal twice and my palate consisted of dal bhat every single day I was there (momos were a luxury on the trek)--which in no way makes me an expert, but the taste and portions were pretty consistently similar among most places. The first time that I came here was about 3 years ago with a few friends and we liked the food - the beef tongue was different and super memorable and the jhol momos were just swimming in flavorful curry. Made me want to come back again. Fast-forward three years later, I feel like things have changed significantly. Or maybe I didn't catch them at their best, but I came with another group of friends and I just felt overall disappointed with the food, as did my friends who were excited to try Himalayan food for the first time. I had the goat dhat bhat and the small amount of meat served in aesthetically pleasing bowls to mask the portion was disappointing--and this was not a lunch special or anything. I mainly got a big bone and realistically got about 2-3 small bites of actual meat, while there was an overwhelming amount of rice and veggies. The momos also tasted like they were pre-made and heated or steamed up again because the dough was definitely a little rough. Overall, this experience was a meh for me. I think it is a social staple for many Nepalese and Tibetans in the area, and just for that.

    I've walked past this place a few times and was intrigued so I decided to give it a try…read more It has a beautiful, well decorated interior and was kept warm and cozy on a snowy day. They provide complimentary popcorn, which is well seasoned and rich with ghee. I was seated in a chair that was very low to the ground. While outfitted with comfy cushions, I was not sure what the proper was to sit on this chair was and I was too embarrassed to ask. My best guess is that it's meant to be a criss cross applesauce type situation, but I had on wet snow boots and didn't particularly want to do that. This isn't a complaint, but just something to consider for anyone with mobility concerns who might be considering visiting. There are some normal style chairs in the front of the restaurant that I'm sure I would have been switched to had I requested as such. Anyway, onto the food. I ordered the "Lahana Ko Faarzi Bhoj" which arrived on a large round platter with a variety of different dishes. I am very new to this type of food, and most of it was completely unfamiliar to me, which was very exciting. The grain at the center of this platter is "chiura," a rice product which has been pounded flat and dried. It has a light and crunchy texture, and pairs well with the thinner, wet curries it was served with as it really soaks up the liquid and expands in size. I've never had this before and it was very interesting to try. The platter comes with two bowls of warm curry, one with black eyed peas and maybe some potato and the other was darker with meat which I preferred. Both were rich and deep in flavor, but the darker one (pictured on the right) was so savory and well balanced- definitely my favorite part of the meal. They both have some heat to them, the kind that builds at the back of the palette throughout the meal, but none of this food was excessively spicy. The main plate has a ring of various cold dishes around the edge, all of which were unfamiliar to me so I can't necessarily identify them. My favorites were the pieces of well seasoned dark meat chicken and the deep fried egg in the center, but it also included some pickled elements, some ground meat and a small skewer, which I found to be quite tough. I really enjoyed trying new, interesting food in such a beautiful space. The servers were kind and there are many other items on the menu that I'm interested to try. I feel lucky to have this place nearby.

    Have been wanting to try Faarzi for a while. The location used to be a longstanding Irish pub…read morecalled Grandstand, where a good friend of mine and I used to frequent for the yummiest buffalo wings and shepherd's pie. It was sad to see Grandstand close, but I was elated to see a Nepalese and Himalayan restaurant open in its place since I'm a big fan of the flavors that the cuisine offers. Met up with a friend on a Sunday night. She was already excited by the aesthetics of the exterior of Faarzi and was snapping away. When we opened the door, we were surprised by how pretty the interior was. It was filled with lush, vibrant colors and fun decor that was a tasteful mix of contemporary and rustic, which provided a nice, high-end vibe. It felt authentically Tibetan with a contemporary touch to it. We 'd it! It is the prettiest Nepalese restaurant that I've been to in Queens! Once we sat down, a complimentary basket of popcorn arrived. To my surprise, it was DELICIOUS! It was buttery and just savory enough -- not as crisp as popcorn that's just been popped, but so good that it was addictive! What a nice TREAT!! I couldn't stop reaching for it and according to the sign outdoors, the popcorn has unlimited refills! Now, for the food! We ordered 4 dishes to share: - Bhatti Ko Faarzi Masala Chowmein: Wow, just wow!! The masala spice brought this chow mein to another level! Every mouthful of noodle was al dente and had a balanced bite of a perfect amount of masala spice, ginger, savoriness, and a mild kick of heat. It's on the oilier side, but so flavorful that I kept scooping for more! Can't wait to revisit Faarzi and eat more of this! - Boudhha Ko Faarzi Gheu Momo: We ordered the chicken option. The size of the momos was slightly smaller than the momos I've had before, but they were bursting with flavor! Each bite tasted of cumin, cilantro, garlic, and spices that are very familiar in Nepalese food combined with the fragrant Szechuan peppercorn. The lovely tingling mala flavor from the peppercorns was delicate, but delightful! The momos were delicious, each morsel of meat was wrapped in a thin, chewy skin, which gave it a nice bite even though the chicken filling was on the drier side -- the tomato-based sauce that came with it compensated for it. The sauce was so good, it could literally be eaten with anything. The menu mentioned that 2 sauces would accompany the momos, but only one sauce was paired with them. When we asked, we were informed that the other sauce was the chili crisp hot sauce that I had received earlier when I requested for chili sauce. The momos were definitely a flavor bomb with the tomato-based sauce!. Every bite was heavenly! - Piro Nauni Wings: The wings came, and we couldn't stop ooo'ing about the visual presentation of the dish. There were 2 wings and 2 small drumsticks with a shiny glaze, they were hung on a little contraption that looked similar to how roast meats are hung by the window in Chinese restaurants. It was very cute! The wings were smoky, juicy, slightly sticky and sweet with a good amount of spice that tasted of tandoori. It would be even more fantastic if the skin were crispy. Give the crunchy puffed rice plated on the bottom of the wings a try! It is toasty, crunchy, and delicious and adds a layer of flavor to whatever you decide to add it to. Just delicious! - Jadiyaa Lal Mohan: A juicy, moist, sugary, alcoholic dessert that is not only unique, but fun! There are 4 donut-hole-sized balls of soft, fluffy cake, similar to cake pops, that are soaked in a sugar syrup. Stuck into each cake ball is a shot of whisky in a plastic tube, which you can squeeze to infuse the whisky into the cake however much you like. Since the whisky is quite strong and the shot is generous considering the size of the cake, if you do not like whisky, you may want to try the version without it though it is the whisky that gives the cake flavor. The cake would be much more interesting if it had more of the flavors that Jadiyaa are loved for or maybe if the sugar syrup paired with it was flavored with the spices used to make Jadiyaa. Far a more subdued whisky flavor, give the whisky shot just a pinch and enjoy! We had a great time at Faarzi -- great food, great vibe, good portions, and there was live music towards the end of our meal! Not to mention, we thoroughly enjoyed the Mukhwas style mix of spices and candy bits that were served at the end of the meal! i Can't wait to return to Faarzi to try the Pani Puri, which looked delicious and beautiful!
