This place is one of family favorites. We have really loved everything we’ve tried but the Butter Chicken and Chicken Tikka Masala are our favorites. The Naan is so delicious and highly recommend the vegetable Samosas. The staff is so kind and helpful with suggestions. We usually get take out and they are very good with being punctual.

I order for take out usually. I love their boneless chicken biryani. its the best. The only thing I don't like is you get 1 raita in very tiny container. They should give atleast 2 raitas. I bought over $60 worth of food. Hopefully they will fix that. I have been buying from them for over a year now.

We ordered to-go... Tandoori Chicken, Chicken MOMO (dumplings), Gurkha Ambrosial Goat Curry, and Garlic Naan. We loved the goat curry and tandoori chicken. The garlic naan was fantastic!

We ordered the chicken MOMO, Ambrosial Goat Curry, Shrimp Korma, Mango Lassi, and some naan. The flavor on all the dishes were excellent. All the staff provided fast and friendly service. The chef even came out to greet us and ask about the food.
I only gave it 4 stars because I thought the korma was a bit light on shrimp. I believe I would have had more meat if I had ordered the chicken or lamb

My wife and I go hear all the time. We have been to several other Nepali & Indian restaurants in the area and this is the best. All of the food we have tried has been excellent. Our favorites are Chicken 65, the MOMO, Chicken Tikka Masala/Korma, Goat Curry, and the Mutter Paneer. Also the tea and naan bread are always good. The lunch buffet has excellent portions and great value if you can catch it.
The staff is gracious and polite, and the few cases where there have been issues with the food were addressed immediately, with the owner going above and beyond to make things right. Never had any

Portions are great here. The naan bread was well seasoned and the right texture, the rice was great, and the chicken tikka masala was good even after being reheated (I had a long drive home). I’m not a big fan of the momos, they needed some sauce or something but they weren’t bad just nothing to call home about. Pretty quick takeout service too.

Good food at this family run restaurant and bar. Friendly service. The Chicken Chilli was as good as back home. Decent momo's, the Gurkha Lamb curry was decent as well. Garlic Naan was perfect. Kendal was amazing from behind the bar and made some pretty decent recommendations on the drinks. A must try.

Every bit as delicious as we remembered when we first ate there a year ago before Covid shut everyone down. Prices are super reasonable. Family run business where everyone is friendly and very hospitable. Chicken momos and the accompanying sauce are a must ($7.99 for 10 pieces). Pakora is crispy and served with two sauces ($3.99). Boys loved their butter chicken ($12.99). Wife and I had curries which were wonderful too ($13.99).
Though the lunch buffet is not available at this time, they still serve amazing food. Come support this family and their well run small business!

My family and I smell this place every time we go grocery shopping. I had a craving for Chinese food but didn't like the place my boyfriend picked out so I asked if I could find something else. I thought of this place--I KNOW IT'S NOT CHINESE! ;)
This was so much better than Chinese!! There were many things on the menu that piqued my interest but I stayed safe with the butter chicken. Which was SO good even my daughter loved it and couldn't stop saying that my meal was better. I also ordered Mulligatawny soup-- though good I didn't think the lentils were soft enough and found them to be a bit
