    Partially consumed Momo and rice bowl
    Tony P.

    My boss and I had lunch here today and it was absolutely wonderful. We had their Momo (Nepalese dumplings), a rice bowl and the mini samosas. All of the food was very good with a nice level of spice. My boss is vegetarian so we got all vegan options and they were great! I can highly recommend a visit. If I was going to be there longer I would have returned to try their other dishes.

    A great find in Cincinnati. It was the first time we had Nepali cuisine. We enjoyed the lentil pancake with mushrooms and a side of curried vegetables. The sauce added to the fullness of flavor. The texture reminded me of a potato pancake. We were happy with this! The pan-seared vegan momos had shredded cabbage and other veggies inside. The spicy cilantro dipping sauce that came with it was the best part. It was a fresh flavor and not too spicy. The samosa filling was more of a veggie mash consistency and a nice complement to the crunchy exterior coating. There is seating inside (front and back) although it's a bit cramped. The employees were friendly and the food came out in the timeframe promised. There is street parking and for a holiday weekday, it was easy to find.

    I had been wanting to come here for a while, so my hubby and I went a while back on a weekend excursion pre-parenthood. I wanted to try their momos and they did not disappoint! Here is what we got: Chicken Momo, a Nepalese style dumpling 2 meat bowls, each come with up to 3 different items Strawberry banana lassi By far my favorite item was the chicken momos, and I think Nick felt the same. I could eat those every day and not get sick of them. So delicious! For our meat bowls, between both of us we tried: Chicken tikka masala Hakku chuala Pork chili Mixed lentils I think I like the hakku chuala best - a cold chicken salad of sorts with lots and lots of ginger. I can't wait to go back and eat my weight in momos! Someone send them to me when I'm on maternity leave please!

    First time trying Nepali food. The staff is very friendly and gave us recommendations when we were deciding the food. MOMO $10 / 10 dumplings - We ordered half Veg half chicken. I love the chicken MoMo more. They are very juicy! They also came with two different sauce. One is mild and one is spicy. Samosa $4 / 1 piece - We ordered the chicken Samosa. The bread is not too doughy and they has a lot of filling in it! They also came with a sweet sour sauce Rice bowl $14 - We ordered a rice bowl with Hakku Chuala and Pork chilli with Yellow peas sauce. They Hakku Chuala served cold and the staff recommended us to pick a hot topping so we picked the pork chili. Mango Lassi $6 - It's a yogurt drink. I tried the Mango favour and it's pretty good.

    Good food, nice staff, but I saw a Rat here after hours so I cannot recommend it in good faith. | Rating 2/10 Not going to post a lengthy review but eat here at your own risk. The food is good, the staff is nice, the place looks great, but I have video evidence of a rat in the dining area after hours. Not one to drag a restaurant but that combined with their notes from before about health inspection issues lead me to feel its not safe to eat here. (Posting Picture as Yelp won't allow video)

    Woh and Hakku Chuala
    Robert W.

    I tried Bridges Nepali Cuisine over this last summer (2022) on a trip to Cincinnati. I saw it had amazing reviews and I love Nepali food so I was super excited to try it. Bridges is a pretty small venue with some indoor and outdoor seating in the back. It was pretty packed when I went in which was a pretty good sign. We went up to the front to order and had it for dining in. Ordering was super confusing and I still can't figure out why. I ordered chicken momos and woh which are two of their most popular dishes and the person I was ordering from seemed super confused which then also confused me. It took a really long time, but then it finally came out. The momos were the best part of the meal, they were fresh, soft, and the filling was super flavorful. Everyone shared them and really loved it. The woh was pretty good as well, it was my first time having it so I don't really have a good benchmark. The portion was incredible massive and even after sharing with all my friends, I still had like half of it left over after we had the momos. Next time, I would probably stick to just the momos and maybe just order a little more of them and try some different fillings out. Cute little restaurant with some good food!

    Nice spot with good food and friendly service! They have a creative menu with Lassi, Chai, Momos, and customizable bowls. We got the vegan momos which were pretty good and came with great sauces. Cannot wait to go back and try the other dishes!

    I stopped by here after the Northside Fourth of July parade --- I was thrilled that they were open on the holiday, as I was starving. I found it to be an interesting fast-food version of Nepali cuisine. It was small and cozy, with a few tables in front and a section in back with some additional tables. You ordered at the counter, from pre-made food you could see in large chafing dishes. You built your own bowl: you chose the type of rice (I was happy they had brown rice), the sauce (I went with the lentils), and then the toppings (I did a mixture of chicken Tikka Masala and Pork Chili for an extra $2.00). There was a long line but thanks to the assembly-line process, it went quickly. I also ordered a mango lassi, and though the taste was spot-on, it took a long time for it to arrive. As for the food, it was good -- very filling, with a little heat to it. In general, a good place to duck in and get a hot healthy bite.

    I have always wanted to try momos, and bridges did not disappoint! They were crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Two sauces came with it, and both of the flavors were unique. I don't know how to describe it, but it was a good addition to the momos. We also had samosas. They were a lot bigger than the Indian samosas, but I liked that it was crunchy on the outside, and the filling was tasty and soft on the inside. I highly recommend bridges. It's a must-try!

It was a cold day and I knew a nice hot pho would hit the spot! I dined in alone. Very small restaurant with 7 or so tables. The atmosphere was very quaint and peaceful but it was soon disrupted by several delivery and Togo orders walking in and out, and standing/waiting in the small space. It definitely seemed like they were priority over diners. It took a very long time to receive my food after ordering. The restaurant was empty when I came in and one family had come in a good while after me, ordered and received appetizers long before I got my dish. My pho came and the temperature was between warm and hot. Pho should come out almost (if not) steaming. As a result, the noodles had all clumped together.... I really needed it hot because I was freezing, literally the thing that urged me to come in before going home. I would have asked them to reheat it but then the noodles would be completely gross and I didn't want to risk waiting another half hour or so to remake it. I ordered spice level 4... surprisingly it was a little too much for my liking. I'm used to pho being spiced by jalapeños and they used a seasoning that gave a different kind of heat. I prefer the jalapeño. I would have overlooked these things and definitely was going to give them another try during a lunch hour, but that hauled when I received my bill. I was charged $2 more than what the phone with beef was listed on the menu. Few things irk me more than when places aren't transparent with their prices, straight out overcharging than advertised. Only if they'd make this right I'd give them another chance.

I also ordered the drunken brisket burrito, and that thing is huge. I'm not even exaggerating when I say it could easily feed two people, maybe even three. The portion sizes here are seriously generous. I tried their wings too and those were amazing. The mix of seasonings and flavors they use really stands out. Overall everything was flavorful, the portions are big, and it's definitely one of those spots you tell your friends about like "yo, we gotta go back there."

We ordered a variety of entrees, but the highlight was definitely the pho. The broth tasted very close to what you'd find in California and even Vietnam, which was a pleasant surprise. Really rich, balanced, and comforting. The only downside was the lack of fresh herbs on the side. It only came with a dish of bean sprouts, so it felt like it was missing that extra freshness that usually completes a bowl of pho. Service was amazing, mostly students from UC. But everyone was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. Parking was pretty easy, which made the whole experience even smoother. Overall, still a solid spot, especially if you're craving pho that tastes authentic.
