Shahi Paneer MoMo
Divyashree R.

It's a small place. Good for take out. The front desk was helpful. The food was good but not very great. But can stop by for a quick momo craving in the area.

Paneer Tikka Masala & Navaratan Korma

Naan, fries & Noodles were great, but did not enjoy any of the curries or momos. Very nicely maintained and very friendly , kind staff.

Spicy Peppered Tenders, Carrot Cake, Chicken Tikka Masala

LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE their tikka masala hands down best chicken tikka masala i've ever had it's a sweet creamy savory meal. perfect amount of sauce to put on ur rice. Perfect hangover cure in the morning too. Their carrot cake is nice and moist and on the denser side. The icing is more of a cream cheese base. NOOO THERES RAISINS IN THE CARROT CAKE UGH. Still good but ugh disappointment. The pepper chicken was seasoned well and the onion and green peppers add that extra taste.

I don't understand why food shines does not immediately come up as Lowell's best hidden gem. Come in get the MOMO dumplings and enjoy what has to be one of the most addictive and flavor packed dishes this town has to offer. My personal favorite is the Tikkka Masala Mo Mo with a side of garlic naan bread, all absolutely delicious and fresh.

Momo in spinach sauce
Kamila J.

Loved the momos! Great, very friendly atmosphere. Delicious and fresh food. Great garlic knots( more like garlic bread) but very delicious! Spicy, but not too spicy. Loved it!

10 cubes of chicken. Ten. Its like 3 ounces of chicken.

Food is DELICIOUS but oh my god the portion size is small. Chicken Tikka Masada was $18 and it was 10 cubes of chicken, like three ounces of meat total, and the rest of the container was just sauce. See pictures below.

I am SO glad we did, because we were so impressed. Sauces were rich and flavorful, and the naan was warm and comforting- especially paired with the sauce. We got orders of extra rice and we have had leftover rice for over a week, so they definitely don't skimp on portions either. I am looking forward to coming back and trying the mango lassi and samosas!

The saag paneer (spinach and cheese) was nicely spiced, with an opportunity to taste out the flavors of the spinach. The cheese was nicely flavored as well. The chicken tikka masala was creamy, with a nice set of spices and something a bit extra in the flavoring that made it a bit unique. I would have liked to see a greater volume of chicken pieces, but the pieces that I did get were tender and cooked nicely. The okra (Bhindi Bhuna) was really nicely flavored. But the okra itself was too stringy, with a mix of hard bits and tough bits. The okra needs to be significantly more tender. All in all a nice meal! Excellent service also.

We've gone many times, and there's never been a single dish we didn't absolutely love. That being said, if you're a first-timer, you simply must order the momos. These handmade dumplings are the highlight of the menu--little pockets of pure, savory bliss that will keep you coming back for more. Beyond the incredible food, the soul of this place is its owners. They are some of the most genuinely kind and gentle people you will ever meet. They have a way of making every single person who walks through the door feel special and appreciated. It's that personal touch that transforms a great meal into a memorable experience. We are so incredibly grateful to have this restaurant in our area. It not only offers us a taste of the delicious and unique foods of Tibet but also provides a warm and welcoming space. MoMo is a testament to the idea that a restaurant can be about more than just food--it can be about hospitality, culture, and community.

My daughter and I came in hungry today and didn't leave disappointed that's for sure. We tried the beef Momo, gangbu lungsha with beef and Tinthuk with pork. The flavors were all incredible. Seriously so on point and I had never tried the Gangbu which was a spicy, garlicky, amazing dish. I asked for extra spicy and then kind of wimped out, so what the chef prepared was honestly perfect. If we're in the area again, we will stop by for sure. Thank you Momo Tibetan!

Decent South Asian and Nepalese place with surprisingly a karaoke night!…read more The bara is a fried pancake of sorts, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The dipping sauce was good as well, possibly a mint-like flavor. The pork momos were really good too, with nice crimping on the skin and decent fillings inside. The chicken vindaloo was decent, though I might have liked more specificity to the flavoring of the vindaloo. The potatoes were nicely textured. The chicken bites were a bit large, they could have been chopped up a bit. The gorkhali khasi (a goat curry) was fairly decent with tender nice pieces. The flavoring was oversalted and again could have used a tad more definition. The bone-in aspect was appreciated as it held the flavor of the meat. The bhindi masala (okra) was fairly successful with a solid infusion of flavor into the okra. The dish was overall too oily though and some steps need to be taken to minimize the oil. All in all quite enjoyable!

There were many things to choose from, but because of the time of day, we chose three appetizers and one drink each to start our vaca. All items were delicious, but our favorite was the chili pork.
