    Beef Momos
    Emy D.

    Tibet Corner is phenomenal! I've had the Butter Chicken, Tikka Masala, Momos, Garlic Naan, Vindaloo + Tibetan Chow Mein. I love that they adjust to your preferred spice levels too, if you want spicy they'll give you spicy. The service here is also unmatched. The owner and everyone that works there is so attentive and kind. It's the perfect cozy place for the best cozy food. I've become a regular here and plan to continue to visit!

    Butter Chicken
    Steve S.

    Almost four stars. The food is tasty and menu offers a nice range of vegetarian and meat entrees. However, services was slow and it felt like they may be understaffed. Perhaps a result of the labor shortage so many service and retail establishments are facing. That being said, this spit brings a welcome bit of culture of the downtown Hopkins area and is definitely worth checking out.

    The owner is an absolute LEGEND, and the food is top notch! This was on our Hopkins bucket list since moving here, and it didn't disappoint. The owner is mainly doing takeout only right now, and since he was missing a staff member that night hadn't planned to provide dine in service. But he welcomed us in and gave great service! The CHAI. All I'm gonna say, is you have to taste it to believe it. Dreams really do come true. My partner wouldn't stop stealing sips! I got the butter chicken and it was flavorful and creamy- spot on. My partner got an absolute mountain of lamb biryani and he loved the flavors and sauce. The owner chatted with us when he was free and is a total gem. He had us laughing constantly! While we were there, several folks came in for takeout and one even paid for the next strangers' tab! You can tell this is a local favorite.  We'll be back!

    I can't believe I've lived 5 minutes from here for the last 7 years and am only now just finding Tibet Corner! I came here last night with my spouse and mother in law. We chose to sit on the patio, which was super spacious and completely covered, so even on a hot day felt nice since we were shaded from the sun. The menu is pretty expansive, so it was a little tough to decide. We ended up ordering the edamame, samosas, and chicken lollipops to start. Hands down the chicken lollipops were the best appetizer. We also ordered beef momos, lamb curry, and beef shap-ta. All were amazing, and with some naan delicious to dip into the extra sauce. The manager was incredibly friendly and helped point us toward a variety of dishes that were super satisfying. We had more than enough food, and finished our meal with enough left overs for today's lunch!

    Tibetan Beef Shap-Ta
    Steven D.

    Spoiler alert...it's on the corner! :-) We thoroughly enjoyed all dishes ordered and the owners were very kind and service oriented. The ambiance definitely needs a designers touch however! Samosa starter was fantastic as was the butter chicken and chicken tandoor. I had the Tibetan Beef Shap-Ta which was packed with flavor and the medium spice was just enough for me to tolerate as a spice wimp. Loved the garlic naan. It was quiet on a Monday, but take out was active. Definitely a good option, hope they spend a couple of bucks improving the dining decor.

    Chicken momo

    We have had better Momo and Tibetan noodle soup. The momo wrap was very thick and the dipping sauce was basic.

    Dal ($11), made vegan. Great texture, but overly salty.

    Tibet Corner, located in downtown Hopkins, offers Tibetan and North Indian food. It's not bad, but not great. If you want better Tibetan food, go to Tibet Kitchen on Nicollet in Minneapolis. The menu labels its vegan/veganizable dishes, which is enormously helpful. The vegetable samosa ($6) is vegan and pretty good. The handmade noodle soup (then-thuk) ($11) is vegan by default, but I didn't love it. The noodles are nice, but the soup had a dour savory flavor that failed to impress. The veg potato bean (alo phing) ($11) is vegan by default and an unremarkable potato/pea curry with glass noodles. The dal ($11) can be made vegan. I loved the texture of the lentils and the thickness of the base, but the flavor didn't pop. It was also too salty. Unfortunately Tibet Corner doesn't offer any vegan breads (it only has naan, which is made with yogurt). I'd definitely come back to Tibet Corner, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it.

    Butter chicken, lamb vindaloo, garlic naan, mango lassi! Everything was amazing!
    Mariam R.

    We ordered food to be delivered because we were craving Indian food and there aren't many Indian restaurants that delivered close to us. This place is definitely a hidden gem! I have driven by this restaurant many times but have never tried it. It's a humble looking restaurant from it's exterior but don't let that deter you. The Indian food here is more authentic than I have tried at traditional "Indian" restaurants. The more popular ones tend to have a ton of heavy cream as the curry base which isn't traditional in most Indian dishes. The curries are also milder. That is not the case at this restaurant. Their curries are packed with flavor and they aren't bland either. And not too spicy at the same time! I loved it! I tried their mango lassi, lamb vindaloo and butter chicken with garlic naan. Everything was top notch. The vindaloo and butter chicken wasn't as creamy as most Indian restaurants but again - it was more authentic. It tasted amazing! Make sure to check this place out if you want to taste more traditional flavors.

    Chicken 65
    Michael O.

    Great establishment with a mix of Tibetan and Indian cuisine. They have done the pivot (as most restaurants) with a focus on take out. So on your way in you see the table(s) with orders ready for pick up. We opted to eat in and were really glad we did. We had the fish pakora and the chicken 65 (see pick). These were both Minnesota friendly and served with both tamarin and mint chutney. We also asked for a hot sauce. If you like heat and flavor, you should do the same. The naans were excellent as was the Alu Sha. My son had the butter shrimp and he ate it all. Everything tasted fresh and was very flavorful. Looking forward to returning in the near future.

    Have been to Super Moon Buffet several times over the years. The latest visit was last weekend, on…read moreMother's Day and I think it was the busiest I have seen it. We had a later lunch and by the time we left, there was still a long line to get in. It has a nice variety of dishes to select from. One of our favorite parts of the buffet is the hibachi area - my husband, our older son and I all had our own selection of ingredients stir fried for noodle dishes. There are many tables available for seating and the servers are nice but super busy.

    Tried Super Moon Buffet this evening and I'm still trying to figure out what exactly the $150 was…read morefor... because it definitely wasn't the food or the experience. Let's start with the obvious: it's a buffet. We're getting our own plates, our own refills, doing the whole "DIY dining" thing. Fine. But for that price, you'd expect at least decent food. Instead, it was bland, forgettable, and sitting somewhere between lukewarm and questionable. Now the part that really sealed it: as we were literally getting up to leave, an employee approached us and demanded a tip. Not suggested. Not politely mentioned. Demanded. Then another staff member came over, pointed at the receipt, and told me I needed to tip. I'm actually a generous tipper, happily so, when it's earned. But being confronted like that? That's not service, that's pressure with a side of audacity. I even tried to clarify, thinking maybe gratuity wasn't included and I misunderstood. I was told, "No, service is completely separate." Okay... then maybe make that crystal clear somewhere? A sign, a note, literally anything. I would have gladly run to my car to grab cash and come back if it had been handled respectfully. But after being cornered and told I had to tip? Absolutely not. If your business model relies on tipping, act like it. Don't ambush customers on their way out like they're skipping out on a bill. Between the overpriced, underwhelming food and the aggressive tipping situation, this was easily one of the worst dining experiences I've had in a while.

But there is definitely room for improvement. We went for lunch on a Monday. It was busier than I expected, but not overwhelming. My understanding is that they have fewer hot items at lunch compared to dinner. That said, most of the buffet was salad options. There were lots of dressings and toppings, which is great if you love salads and want to mix and match. But for me, I like meat and hot items, so I was disappointed by the lack of those options. The majority of the buffet space really is just for salads. I do wish the staff had asked if we had dined there before. We had not, so it was a little confusing. For example, we didn't know they had trays, so we just grabbed plates until we noticed everyone else carrying trays around. I also wasn't sure if I was supposed to get a new tray each trip or reuse the same one, so I just brought my old one back up. We also didn't know if we were supposed to wait for a waiter or waitress to greet us before going up to the buffet. We just got up, and our waitress introduced herself while we were awkwardly walking toward the buffet. Again, she was very nice. The process was just unclear for first-timers. As for the food itself, most of what I had was either just okay or not something I really loved. There were a few great items, though. The Adobo Chicken for tacos was delicious. The cookies were great too. They tasted like the old Subway cookies, which I mean as a big compliment. The Chicken Teriyaki was also good. The ambiance is really nice. There are windows EVERYWHERE! The place seemed pretty clean, which is especially important for a buffet. The bathrooms are outdated, but fine. The ice cream was good, and I liked that they had hot fudge available. The soups, pizza, a pasta I had, breadsticks, and several other items I tried were just not great. A lot of it felt like something I could make better at home. And for the cost, I feel like I could get something better somewhere else. It was about $20 per person for lunch, which isn't terrible, but also isn't great for what was offered. One thing that confused us (yet again) was tipping. You pay beforehand, and there does not seem to be an option to tip the waitress with a card. We also weren't really waited on much (it's a buffet, so you do most of the "work"), but she did get us waters and cleared our plates, so we left a few dollars in cash. If we hadn't had cash on us, we would not have been able to leave anything. Maybe they don't expect people to tip, but again, it was just another confusing part of the experience. One thing I appreciated was that they had gloves available to use when dishing up food. That was nice, especially if you are concerned about germs or contamination. Overall, I would not seek this place out again. We probably won't be back unless someone in our friend or family group really wants to try it. If I did go back, I would probably only go for dinner and hope there are more hot options and tastier items. Who is this place for? I think it is geared more toward families and groups. It could be a good option if you have picky eaters or if everyone wants something different.

We tried the Szechuan dumplings in chili oil, cream cheese wontons, and the kung pao chicken. There was a lot on the menu that caught my eye, especially the orange beef - but unfortunately, they do not sell that dish anymore. The dumplings were mostly warm, but some were cold. The flavor was impeccable, so I didn't mind the mixed temperature. That's something that could be improved. I haven't ever ordered kung pao chicken, so I don't really have anything to compare it to, but it was amazing. Seasoned well and served with a little heat. The amount of chicken you get is impressive. It is served with a side of rice. The wontons were some of the hottest/freshest wontons I've ever eaten. Steam was coming out of my mouth! It definitely was a fresh order due to them originally forgetting that part of our order. I was pleasantly surprised by this experience, although the dumplings were cold, and an order of wontons was served late, everything was unique and cooked well. The flavors are amazing. Will definitely be back.
