On a cold night in Lourdes and really needed to have some hot soup. Stopped in and had black tea which was great. I ordered the Mok Thuk which was a dumpling soup with vegetables. Wife ordered the Then Thuk which was a beef noodle soup with vegetables. She did not really like the beef pieces and I was not crazy about my broth which was cinnamon based and not my flavor but she really likes that so we switched. We were both happy and the hot soup was just what we needed. Nice find and never had Tibetan food before so that was cool. Food definitely 3.5 to 3.75, menu was available in English and other languages which is convenient and a 4 for service and cool decorations also. read more

Authentic Tibetan food in Lourdes, flavourful and clean restaurant (including the toilet). The owner is very nice. Really recommended!

We came in 10 minutes before they closed and had one of the best meals of our lives. They were very kind to feed us and wow, was it good. We're from Chicago and have had great Tibetan food before, but this was made with love. It was amazing. read more

We ran across this Tibetan restaurant as we were leaving the tourism office--it's located right off the square in the city center. It wasn't open when we walked by but the menu looked so delicious that we made a point to come back for dinner after visiting the sanctuary and it was well worth it! The food was delicious and filling and the staff were extremely kind (and didn't even mind us butchering the french language as we tried to order). They provided English language menus and the menus included detailed lists of all allergens in the dishes, which made it extremely easy for me to avoid anything that might trigger my peanut allergy, always a concern when traveling! The restaurant interior was attractive, interesting, and clean, and the bathrooms were also extremely clean and well kept (which we noticed and appreciated after days of using tollway rest stop bathrooms). The clientele seemed to be a mix of tourists and locals, which confirmed to us that we'd made an excellent restaurant choice as soon as we arrived. We ordered the butter tea (exciting, salty, extremely rich) and the Himalayan tea (delicious, sweet, and much more like what our taste buds are accustomed to); the curry chicken, which was delicious and had a lot of pineapple in it, which was a surprising and tasty touch; three different soups; and a noodle dish. Everything was delicious, fresh, and interesting. The table next to us had a couple of different types of dumplings that we wished we had ordered! Overall, we can't recommend this restaurant enough for a fabulous, filling meal after a long day of visiting the sanctuary or the surrounding hills! You're sure to feel comfortable and find something you will enjoy. read more

A very unique experience! The owner was friendly and accommodating. The restaurant was packed full when we arrived at 2:00pm. We shared a table with an airline pilot who told us he only eats at this restaurant when he's in town. The lentil soup was delicious. The vegetarian dumplings were also delicious. I didn't care too much for the meat dumplings - it was just a meatball encased within the flour dumpling. I also tried the Tibetan tea, which wasn't really my cup of tea. The owner warned me it has salt and butter it in, but I wanted to try it. It tasted greasy and I could feel my arteries hardening each sip I took. So now I know. Overall, definitely worth a try and better than the vast number of overpriced mediocre restaurants in Lourdes. Hi read more
