    Shrimp curry & garlic naan
    Laura E.

    Very happy to have found a delicious Indian/Tibetan restaurants a few blocks from home. I almost left because I didn't see anyone working at the front and only 2 other people were sitting outside. I'm SO glad I didn't! I ordered the shrimp curry (mild) and garlic naan. Curry had a kick without being overly spicy. It soaked up the side of basmati rice very well. Garlic naan was soft and did not dry out easily when I had leftovers yesterday night. The server (owner?) was super friendly and welcoming! Prices were reasonable and I didn't have to wait long for my food. I recently moved to Hopkins and look forward to being a regular!

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

    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.

    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.

    Garlic Naan

    Everything was SOOOOOOOO good! I'm vegetarian and there were may options. Great ambiance and food. Will definitely be coming here again!

    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.

    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.

One standout for me was the chicken wild rice soup, which was rich, comforting, and surprisingly enjoyable even with mushrooms mixed in -- the flavors were well balanced and hearty without being overpowering. The salad bar was another strong point, with a good range of fresh ingredients and prepared salads that felt thoughtfully stocked rather than repetitive. The pizza was decent -- not the highlight of the meal, but serviceable and satisfying as part of the larger selection. To finish, the ice cream was excellent and easily one of the most enjoyable parts of the experience, offering a classic, nostalgic end to the meal. Overall, Q Cumbers is a solid choice if you're looking for variety and comfort in a relaxed, casual setting.

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.
