    Pork Chilli Momo, dumplings with onion and bell pepper
    Patrick B.

    Wonderful first-time experience at Everest Spice. The restaurant is a little hard to find, owing to a fairly dark stretch of Derry Street, but it's at the end of a strip mark, giving plenty of opportunities to enter the parking lot and drive to it through the lot. The inside is lovely, very simply decorated in wood grains, with tables and banquettes. We were unfortunately the only diners in the restaurant when we got there around 6:45 on a Thursday evening. Another couple came in while we were eating. We were greeted promptly by a man we assume is the proprietor, given menus and water. The menu is sizable, with numerous Nepalese and Bhutanese dishes. To my eye, the food is exclusively Nepalese/Bhutanese, with none of the familiar Indian dishes prevalent in other similar restaurants. Our server was very helpful in deciphering the various dishes; but, in the end, one just has to take a chance. I ordered a Pork Chilli Momo as an appetizer and Pork-Pa, a chalkboard special, described as pork belly and spinach. B & M each ordered Chicken Thuk-Pa, a Himalayan noodle soup. While we waited, we were served a plate of Nim-Ke, crispy fried noodles that looked like something you'd see in a Chinese restaurant, but so much more flavorful, with a subtle hint of fennel. It was accompanied by a dipping sauce that looked like ketchup but with a truly unique taste. The Chilli Momo was a good sized portion, between a large app and a small entree. Eight plump pork-filled dumplings in a tangy red sauce with onion and bell pepper, delish! The girls' Thuk-Pa was a tomato soup with noodles, veggies and fried chicken chunks, very good. The Pork-Pa, which I'm told will be on the new menu, was a fantastic combination of thick slabs of unctuous pork belly topped with wilted spinach and several mildly-spicy green chilies, just barely cooked, topped with an onion compote and served with basmati rice. It was the best thing I've eaten in a long time! The best Nepalese/Bhutanese restaurant we've been to in the Harrisburg area (where they seem to be popping up like spring crocuses). Prices are very reasonable, and we used a Local Flavor deal that is available occasionally. Probably not the best for kids (or adults) who aren't fairly adventurous eaters, since there was no apparent children's menu or American dishes, unless you count Chow Mein. We will definitely be back!

    This restaurant is a true gem and the owner and staff are genuine, generous and enthusiastic to not only share their cuisine, but also their culture. As an educator in the area, I arranged a staff dinner in November 2018 at this restaurant to support the students and families of Nepalese and Bhutanese culture who attend our school. It was easy to communicate with the owner via Facebook messenger and he welcomed our large party warmly. We walked away with full bellies, exposure to the culture, and a trusted new community member. I reached out to the owner again this week when our school was hosting a multicultural night and received a very generous donation, which everyone loved (photo attached). This is a diamond in the rough and the location is expanding its dining options to be able to accommodate larger parties. I highly recommend Everest Spice!

    This was my first time trying this restaurant. Recently, there has been an explosion of places serving Nepali/Himalayan cuisine in Harrisburg area. I reached there shortly after the place opened for lunch. I was the only one at that time and till I left with my take out order. The owner greeted me as I entered. He was very polite and patient while I browsed the menu. Inside is nice and very clean. They can accommodate big groups. My food was freshly made and packed nicely. Chicken momos were delicious but not spicy. The spicy sauce which came with it perfectly complimented. Though next time I'll ask them to give more of the sauce. Himalayan chicken soup was very flavorful. The only issue with the soup was overcooked chicken. It was so overcooked that it had become hard strings and couldn't be eaten. It's vegetarian friendly and serves spicy food. You can ask for different spice level and they can make it, since food is custom made.

    Pork chili momo is their best seller! Im so addicted to these

    A co worker recommended this place for their popular chili momo dumplings (pork). The best fried chili momo I've ever had! Definitely going back soon!

    Pork Jhol MoMo
    Daniel M.

    I decided to give Everest spice a try since it is do close to home and had good reviews. I had the Jhol MoMo for dinner. The dumplings were great! The flavor was on point and the noodle was thin. Good meat to noodle ratio. The downer part was the sauce they put on the dumplings is served cold, not cool, cold. It was a definite surprise when i tasted it. (Menu didn't state cold sauce, it's called homemade sauceThe sauce had good flavor and i got medium spice and it wasn't overly spicy. The young lady who was the hostess/ server was very polite and accommodating. She asked a few times if i needed anything etc. Granted it was 6:45 on Friday night and there was only 1 other couple here. This review would have gained more stars if i wasn't taken aback by the cold sauce. Other than that it was a delight to dine here. I'll give them another go down the road.

    Food was great and better than what we expected. It was our first time trying Nepalese food, and it is now our new number #1 favorite type of food to eat. They had great vegan and vegetarian options, so flavorful. Highly recommend, plus owner was very knowledgeable and kind. Delicious, hot food!

    Chilli Momos and Avocado Salad
    Michael G.

    First time here. Had a Groupon. I loved it! This is the most authentic Nepalese restaurant in the Harrisburg area. They have the most Nepalese people eating here. That says a lot! They said it's food "from home". Americans may need to ask for milder on the "hot items". But they easily accommodate. I had several items to try and have leftovers that will reheat well. Easy to understand menu and a nice variety. Also, like Mexican food, it's NOT all hot. But if it says "hot" trust them! I recommend an Avocado Salad for the table to share as a "coolant" if you do choose heat. Momos (dumplings) are served in many varieties and processes. Give this place a try!

    Chicken chilli momo - burnt momos
    Manogya K.

    I got chicken chilli momo for take out. Tasted awesome...until I saw some momos were burnt on the bottom. It was hard to see w all the chilli sauce, and maybe that was the intention. Awesome taste but not worth the carcinogens.

    Great food, fantastic service, and everything is made to order! I especially loved their pork dumplings and chicken curry.

    Pork Thaal
    David T.

    If I can't go back to Asia, this meal is a close second. The food tastes fresh and is obviously made to order. The thaal is affordable and filling. We will definitely be returning. The service was a little slow because it is new but they were constantly checking on us to to see if we needed anything.

    This is another hidden gem. It was a great experience and the food was great! We loved the Aloo paratha and the goat curry was delicious!

    I ordered several dishes. Including the Chili Momo, Samosa Chaat, and the Pork Kaan (pig ear). I…read moreordered everything to go and with various levels of heat. The Pork Kaan was FLAMING hot. The Chili Momo was very hot. Regardless of heat level, the food was incredibly good. The flavor was off the charts. The Pork Kaan was so hot, it was giving me runway model lips. But it was still sooooo good. Smoky flavor, crispy/chewy texture, etc. The momo had a decent amount of filling and the dough was very thin. The samosa chaat was probably the lease impressive . . . but it was still good. The food was nicely packaged in metal to-go containers with plastic lids. It was already stacked well in a plastic bag. The price wasn't terrible. I was out of there for under $50 for 4 dishes. I only have one complaint. The guy taking my order tried to talk me out of the spicy and unique dishes. He said I wouldn't like the Kaan because Americans don't like it. When I said I wanted some dishes extra extra spicy, he tried to talk me out of it multiple times. I didn't mind the guidance, but I don't like the assumption that people like me don't like spicy food. And if I confirm I really do want it spicy, please don't keep trying to convince me otherwise. Despite having to argue for spicy food, the food itself was absolutely fantastic and I can't wait to go back and try some of their other dishes. I was offered two small bottles of water to drink while waiting for my food to be cooked. Definitely a two thumbs up experience regarding the food.

    If I could give this more than five stars, I would. Amazingly friendly staff, super helpful and…read morekind, especially for those who may not be familiar with Nepali cuisine. I had an order of dumplings(momo) and A noodle dish. Both were amazing, perfectly cooked, perfectly spiced, and really large portions. I am so thankful I decided to try this place.
