    One of the only places with reasonable prices amongst the inflated market of San Pedro. This is located in the other segment of San Pedro with all the other asian restaurants. I went on a Saturday around 2PM and the wait time in total was about 10min before I received my food, which is a pretty good time considering the amount of people and wait times for other places. I ordered a Chicken Tikka Masala curry and the portion size was a little small compared to what I was used to, but I guess when dining at SPS everything is inflated due to the walkability and convenience. Although it was a little small, it packed a full dish of flavor and was really well seasoned. My wife and I shared one and it filled 3/10 of our bellies each. Although this is a chain throughout the bay area, it never hurts to try it first time here, simply due to how expensive it can get ordering at other food stalls. Don't forget to utilize ParkSJ for the free parking in the garage next door.

    Awesome Nepali/ Indo Chinese food inside San Pedro Market Square. Located in the spacious Market Hall. The staff are friendly. Loved the Chicken Momo Chili and Egg Fried Rice.

    My sister-in-law ordered some Chicken Momos - plump, juicy, and flavorful. They are still just as good as I remembered! One of these times, I'll have to try and get some different things to try.

    My gooooddd!!!! This is so good!! The sauces were also very tasty, the gentleman helping me was so sweet and gifted me extra sauce and naan bread and boy oh boy was I blown away at how tasty everything was including the samosa! You know when you go home because you're craving moms cooking? This is exactly how warm my meal felt, hit all the spots of my soul! I'll definitely try other dishes when I come back

    Urban Momo is in San Pedro square in the food court. There are tables indoors and outdoors but is shared with other businesses. Ordering occurs at the counter. There are menus available so you can order at counter. Service was friendly. They give a number and you'll get buzzed when ready to pick up. We appreciated the to go package of our delicious items. Both had very good spice and flavor. I really liked the noodles of the chow mien. Definitely a delicious option in the food court.

    Garlic Tikka Fries, Chicken Momos (6 pcs)

    Located in San Pedro Square, this place is so yummy! They have a large variety of options to choose from, varying from noodles to their famous momos. This day we got the chicken steamed momos and the garlic tikka fries. Their steamed momos come in orders of 6 but they are big pieces, so this comfortably fed 2 people. The only thing I wished for was more sauce for the fries. Best chance for parking is the Market and San Pedro garage. Service was so friendly and helpful, and the food was prepared quickly. We came on a Saturday for lunch and were still able to find seating fairly easily. Definitely a top spot in the food hall!

    My partner got the chicken momos to share and they are delightfully steamed and delicious to the taste buds!

    Their spicy noodles are so delicious here! Located at San Pedro square, parking can be tricky but these noodles are worth it! Service was quick and employee was friendly. Lots of places to sit and eat inside .

    This is my boyfriend's favorite place to stop by for food during Fanime. He had it 3 times a row one year because the prices are pretty reasonable. His go-to is the chicken tikka masala because it tastes sooo good especially when you add a naan ($4 each). I jump around in the menu but everything I've had tasted amazing. You order at the counter and they give you a buzzer so that you can have a seat while waiting for the food. The food hall is pretty big so there's always a table available.

    I have ordered previously from this restaurant. This time we are at San Pedro Square. The food was excellent. A nice kick of spice as well. I wish the chicken momo had a little less turmeric. Earlier I ordered the gobhi Manchurian for a lunch party and it was very good as well. My favorite go to place for Nepali food in San Jose.

    Hi, could you kindly list which dishes contain nuts and/or seafood? Thanks

    Are these momos gluten free?

    The Momos themselves are not listed as Gluten Free, however most of the curries, tandoori meats, and rice dishes are. The menu includes a "GF" symbol to indicate which items are Gluten Free.

    Which menu options are gluten free?

    The menu includes a green "GF" symbol to indicate which items are Gluten Free. Most of the curries, biryani, and some meat entrees stand out.

    Is full menu Halal?

    yes

    What ingredients are in the vegetarian momos?

    Veggies instead of chicken.

    Is this place halal by any chance?

    Yes it is.

    Where are you guys located exactly? I entered the public market entrance n saw nearby places like crepes and more but I couldn't find your spot. Looked for it more than half hour. Tried to call but no one picked up.

    They are located in the back. Go through the courtyard, all the way to the rear building. They are located next to the pho place and a few stalls from treat bot.

In my previous review, I mentioned that I would rather pay the full price for one delicious, flavorful dish than get a Buy One Get One deal with huge portions that tasted bland and disappointing. I also shared what I felt needed to change. This time, the flavor was back to being delicious, rich, and exactly what I was hoping for! The portion and amount of meat have decreased compared with my first order, but honestly, it's still acceptable and, for me, completely worth the price. Getting two flavorful dishes for around $26 is still a great deal. Most importantly, I really appreciate that the owner seemed to listen to the customer feedback and make adjustments rather than simply ignoring it. That deserves recognition. Thank you for listening and adapting to what customers actually want. The taste is what brought me back, and this time, I'm happy to say I enjoyed my meal!

The tandoori chicken is to die for! So tender, juicy, and I know people hate this word but it's also so moist that it is overall delicious. My mozzarella naan is scrumptious but unfortunately there's not a cheese pull. Which is a bummer... Also the butter chicken is so creamy well balance of spices that goes perfectly well with my naan. I also order it mild. Would I come back? ABSOLUTELY of course! A hole in the wall. I'm not exaggerating... personal experience. This restaurant is not hard to miss. It a green building right next to Tostadas. I did a quick pick up through DoorDash for myself. There is a promotion of buy one get one free. Worth it! Also very clean restaurant.

After getting seated we were told they decided not to have it due to lack of sufficient patrons. Needless to say we were disappointed but ending up ordering a few dishes. We got chowmein, parotta and some chaat. All the items were good and well made. They also gave us a Bangalore style peas chaat on the house, it tasted exactly like the version my grandma makes.

    *Vegetarian Foodie Review*…read more Always wanted to try this cafe and finally went in there today. It was at a walkable distance from my daughter's gymnastics camp. It was around 2PM, and we wanted some quick snack bites. This felt like a perfect place. Super cute cafe kind of ambiance. It has books, games etc to chill and my daughter & I had fun exploring it together. The menu didn't feel super huge, which is good because it makes me feel the items must be really good. I ended up ordering the paneer sandwich for myself and the veg panini for my 5 year old. 1) The paneer sandwich was my fav - it had a subtle hint of sweetness. The flavors really talked to me. The paneer portion was generous in my sandwich, a good protein-packed sandwich. 2) My daughter attacked the Veg panini and finished it in just a few mins. She told me it was super tasty, and didn't even let me try it. All sandwiches comes with fries - they were super yummy too, however, they were a tad bit salty and it would have been the best if they would tone down the salt a bit. Overall, I would rate the food at 5/5. My spouse joined us a little later, and I ordered the paneer sandwich one more time for him to eat. He also agreed that it was a 5 on 5. He loved the place too and told me he will definitely try the chai there next time he drops our kid to the gymnastics class. Service was surprisingly a little slow. They took 15 mins to get us the sandwiches, which in my opinion was a bit long considering it was just us in the cafe at that time. However, I had a feeling that they probably made it fresh, so it might take longer due to that. Took off 1 star for slow service. Definitely coming back again to try out more options from the menu!

One of the few Indian restaurants that doesn't taste like they have three main sauces they pull from with no effort to make flavors differentiate or pop. The dishes here taste like the chef's actually care about the food. Service is polite and simple. Very low maintenance. Not a restaurant if you like to be picky. Come to enjoy it as it is. My only complaint (and it is minor) is that, because they do a lot of take out, they have a lot of drinks and other items prepared to just grab and go for you. This doesn't work if your order anything other than water to drink at the table. They offer really interesting and refreshing tea/lemonades, yet when they bring the drink it comes prepared to go in plastic cup, sealed, with boba style fat straw (as opposed to the very elegant picture on their menu). It stood out as massively tacky and ugly, especially because of how thoughtful the design choices are for the table scape and the rest of the dining experience. Strange place to cut a corner. Even opening the to go cup at the counter, pouring it into one of the lovely water glasses (which is what I did, lol) would be easy and streamline the beautiful experience.

I stopped because I felt that…read moredining experiences are personal, and everyone should have the opportunity to form their own opinion. Yesterday, however, I changed my mind after having one of the most disappointing dining experiences I've had at Saapaaduu. I've tried to dine here a couple of times over the past few years, but it was always crowded, so we ended up leaving. Since we were in the area yesterday, we decided to give it another try. We arrived around 8:00 PM with our family, including kids, and waited about an hour for a table. Even though I added my phone number to the waitlist, I never received any updates, and it didn't seem like people were being called in the order they were added. By the time we were seated, it was already 9:00 PM. We ordered a few dishes. The appetizers--Chicken 65, Chicken Lollipop, and Pallipalayam Chicken--arrived one by one. About 30 minutes later, our server informed us that they were out of Seeraga Samba Chicken Biryani and only had Vijayawada Chicken Biryani available. Since it was already late and we had no real alternative, we agreed. It then took another 20 minutes for the biryani to arrive. Unfortunately, the Vijayawada Chicken Biryani was nothing like a biryani. It was simply dry basmati rice with chicken gravy sitting at the bottom of the bowl. The rice was dry, and the dish lacked the flavor and texture you'd expect from a biryani. I took one spoonful and left the rest--I didn't even want to take it home. The Pallipalayam Chicken tasted nothing but same chicken curry in Vijayawada biryani with coconut chunks and didn't have the authentic flavor I was expecting. Overall, nothing stood out. The food was mediocre at best and did not justify the long wait. The restaurant itself is quite small. The person at the front desk mentioned that it accommodates around 40 guests at a time, which seems about right for the 8-10 tables inside. Given the limited seating and the consistently long wait times, I strongly feel they should implement an online reservation or waitlist system. Families with young children shouldn't have to stand outside for an hour without updates. It almost feels like the long line has become part of the restaurant's image rather than something they're trying to improve. I genuinely wanted to like this place after hearing so much about it over the years, but unfortunately, the overall experience--from the wait, to the service, to the food--was disappointing. I apologize for leaving a negative review, as that's not something I usually do. However, I believe sharing an honest experience is fair to both the restaurant and future customers. I sincerely hope the restaurant takes this feedback constructively and improves the overall dining experience.
