Sam E.

This was a really satisfying meal to end my day! Inside is small and cozy and the staff was incredibly kind! My friend and I split a pani puri and we each got our own thalis for dinner. I opted for the dry chicken and it came with a generous amount of food: rice, gobi, dal, achar and salad. Everything was so well seasoned, it definitely hit the nutty and herbaceous notes. The chicken was sooooo tender and flavorful. The thali meal does come with refills for the veggies but not the meat. And I was disappointed because I could've gone for another serving of that chicken! For dessert, we opted for my favorite: rasmalai and it did not disappoint. Surprisingly light considering its cheesy origins. But it was also so floral and sweet, a perfect end to our meal!

Chicken Jhol Momo. $14. Very good momos. Jhol was a bit lacking unfortunately (a bit too light)

Glenn C.

Short review/recommendations- Chili momo, steamed momo (just not the Jhol version,) pork keema noodles, mixed thenthuk (for lighter palates,) sukuti. I went with a group to this nice little Nepalese spot a few months ago. The group has had a good track record picking out new Nepalese/Tibetan spots. This is yet another tasty one. That makes sense, as their original location is in Jackson Heights, which has most of the good spots for that cuisine, with some rare exceptions. The staff were friendly. The food was reasonably priced for the portion sizes, especially for Williamsburg. They have a few beers on the menu, but I didn't bother getting anything to drink, and I don't believe anyone else had a beer or something else. The main star is, of course, the momos. The price doesn't change based on filling but rather on how it's prepared. The cheapest is the plain steamed at $12. Fried options are $13. Jhol is $14, and chili is $15. We got three types, one from each main category. In general, I would say they are a little larger than usual, and the filling is quite juicy. The closest comparable momos are from Phayul, among a few other better spots. My favorite was the priciest: the Pork Chili Momo for $15. These were excellent. The juicy, large momos paired nicely with the slightly spicy and slightly sweet chili. They aren't my favorite I've ever had (that would be Kasthamdap), but they were still very tasty and well above average. The Simple Steamed Beef Momos for $12 were also good, with tasty filling and texture. The Chicken Jhol Momos were just alright. While the momos themselves were tasty, I found the jhol a bit too light. I would compare them negatively to my preferred jhol spot, which is Tales From Everest in Curry/Murray Hill. The Pork Keema Noodles for $16 came with chilli sauce, noodle, mincemeat, scallion, and peanut. It was unique. It reminded a few of us of dan dan noodles from Szechuan places, though less fragrant and less spicy. There was plenty of noodles, which were nicely chewy, with some crunch and a bit of richness. The peanuts added crunch. The meat was plentiful. I would recommend these also. If you want a lighter noodle option, the Mixed Thenthuk for $15, listed as a traditional Tibetan hand pull flat noodle cooked with egg, beef & chicken, radish & spinach is recommended. The texture of the noodles had nice bounciness, and the broth was delicately flavored. It in general resembled egg drop soup to an extent, though less gloopy with some meat and lots of strips of egg otherwise. If I lived in the area, I would very likely order this when it gets cold outside. The Pani Puri for $9, listed as hollow crackers stuffed with spiced potatoes and sour water, was good, with this place doing it DIY style like many other places where you pour the water inside. In general, I have preferred this dish from Indian spots as they tend to flavor it better, but these were above average, at least for Himalayan spots. I wish there was a little bit more potato in there, but the water had a good kick of tamarind, and it had a good bit of heat, and there was some crunch otherwise. There was also the Sukuti for $14 listed as a Nepalese dish consisting of dried beef meat. I have had this dish from other spots, and this was a pretty good version. The spice level was a bit lighter than my preferred places, but the texture was nice, being a bit more hydrated/less jerky like, and there was plenty of meat. This was also tasty and I would recommend it. We were also going to get the Bhuttan, a $14 goat offal dish, but it wasn't available, so we went with the Lasuni Gobi for $9 with batter-coated cauliflower fried and tossed in tomato garlic sauce. This was a pretty standard version, at least for the Nepalese variety, which is, in general, a bit less spicy. The garlic and tomato flavor was nice, and the batter was light, which was a plus. For dessert was the Rasmalai for $6, listed as creamy cheese dumplings soaked in sweetened milk. They unexpectedly came topped with some saffron and were a bit above average. The cheese had the expected spongy texture, and the milk was nicely floral. This was tasty, with the only thing missing being some slivered almonds or something similar just to add one last texture. The food overall was good here. It's not the best Nepalese/Tibetan food I've had, but there wasn't any particularly bad dish among the lot, and we definitely ordered a lot of food. I'd probably go back here, and I would recommend this place as a good introduction to food from the region.

Food 4/5 Service 3/5 Ambiance 3.5/5 Was craving Nepali cuisine so decided to try gorkhali Enjoyed the appetizers more than the entree and momos here Fried chicken 5/5: these were ammmazinggg ; meat felt apart and it was super juicy Losuni gobi 5/5: these sweet and sour cauliflower were delicious!! Taste like sweet and sour chicken Thol chicken momo 2/5: these were my least favorite but could be that I'm not use to the flavors Pan fried pork momo 3.5/5: these were better than the thol for sure. Your standard momos Chili beef momo 4/5: one of the better momos that they have Chicken curry 2.5/5: not a fan of the curry and it was quite watered down Place is also quite small and only 2 people working so service can get very slow here

Delicious ! Lots of options for vegetarian. The momos were great - we did pan fried vegetable & steamed lamb. Chana Masala was yummy. Food came out quick and was filling!

Rezwana N.

I had been trying to come & try their food for a while. I have always tried to come & support my own people! So this one was on my list to come & have their yummy food . I heard good things about it. Finally on a rainy gloomy day I was able to come. Very cute, cozy & welcoming place. Customer service was great & ok point. I didn't realize they serve pork , it was my bad. So I didn't wanna take chance & end up ordering a vegetarian item. Cauliflower was yummy, tried the gulab jamun. It was good, but didn't appreciate the price for three little gulab jamun! 2$ a piece for this small jamun, I know my desi dessert & the price should be lower. Cauliflower price was high too but I can live with that . Thank you for the hospitality!

Great to have some solid momos in the area! Came on a Saturday night and we sat down right away. The servers were very friendly and took the time to explain each part of the Thali we got. Food: - veg thali (4/5) - this is definitely a good bang for your buck, given that you can ask for refills. My favorite was the pea dish. - veg jhol mojos (4.5/5) - nice deep flavor, the momos were solid. I'd be curious to try the chili ones and the fried ones next time. - mango lassi (5/5) - everything you want mango lassi to be. The vibe was pretty causal and they have a few tables for sit down.

Laura Jean O.

What a cozy little spot! Small and you can really feel the customer attention here. Loved the cauliflower appetizer and the pork dumplings. Really can't go wrong with anything you have here especially if it's your first time trying this type of food don't be intimidated! THE DUMPLINGS ARE SO GOOD! Thank you for having us!

I just returned from Sikkim a week ago, and I feel privileged to be able to walk 2 blocks from my apartment, have some of the best momos in the city, and pretend that I'm staring out at a narrow lane in Gangtok. The veg momos here are indeed outstanding. The peanut-y jhol momo soup is super flavorful, and when paired with the chili chutney on the side, is the perfect warming soup on a winter day. There are a few other Nepalese/momo competitors in Brooklyn, but as far as I'm concerned, this is by far the best option anywhere in the North Brooklyn vicinity.

Tiffany G.

I ordered to go for the samosas and the beef dumplings. The sauces were flavorful and the dumplings were so juicy. Also the person working the counter was very nice.

First time eating Nepalese food and it was yummy!!! Kept it simple with the chkn chili, lentil soup and rice. Will def treat myself to this place again! The server was super kind.

Bummer to have not had Gorkhali in the neighborhood sooner. This place slapped. Did takeout and it was great so think it'd be even better sitting in. For two we ordered a chow mein, fried rice, and steamed momos. We did medium spice level and it really wasn't spicy at all so would recommend going to the highest level if you like a kick. Momos were incredible, I always prefer steamed and think the pork was a great option since it's one of the more flavorful meat options. Super soft and nicely filled. Loved both the fried rice and noodles as well. Will say its lean on the protein but the flavors are great! For both the chow mein and fried rice the meats were a dried/jerky texture. Not sure if this is common/regional but it was my first time experiencing it. I was a fan!

This is a cute little me and my friends stumbled by on a Saturday evening at 6ish! We were starving after coming back from playing Holi in the city near by at the BK Backyard bar. We decided to stop here for some momos and rice and noodles. Since we were drenched in dry Holi colors and a bit dirty from it, we asked inside if we can dine here. The man was kind enough to let us sit inside and dine here. We ordered a variety of dishes to Veggie chili momos (my favorite), chicken steam momos, egg fried rice, veggie noodles, some mango lassis and one cup of masala tea because it was crazy windy and cold outside. Overall, the food was good. My top favorite was the veggie chili momos and the egg fried rice. This place is very small but cute from inside! It feels very homely! They have a limited menu but it was all very tasteful and good.

Adhrit S.

Yummy spot ! I've lived so close to here for almost a year and never popped in but it's definitely about to become my comfort-spot. Had the Gobi and Momos and they were fresh and flavorful ! The restaurant is cozy and clean and the staff are very friendly and helpful

Huge fan of Gorkhali. We ordered the butter chicken, thali, and the chili chicken. It was so good that I ate way too much. It was pretty busy when we stopped by on Sunday night but we didn't have to wait for a spot. Seems like a solid spot for dates or group catchups! Tip- if you're extra hungry you can order a refill of the thali for a discounted price. read more

HIDDEM GEM ALERT! I REPEAT HIDDEN GEM ALERT quietly seated in the heart of Williamsburg is a cozy, quaint spot serving up nothing but deliciousness! Limited on thanksgiving this place called my name. Quiet, cozy, and very nice service. Some complementary soup paired with garlic naan, and some spicy noodles! The flavor was bursting! The noodles weren't spicy. But, still had a nice chili flavor with some salt and umami! Fluffy garlic naan with their house sauce was the perfect snack. Every bite sent comfort and warmth through a cold, wet, lonely, thanksgiving diner! read more

Appetizers and momos were the winners here. We got pani puri to start, which always has an element of surprise for me. The sour water and the cold potato filling really floods your tongue with something bright, fresh, and savory. The momos steamed are superior, especially with pork. I'm usually a pan fried dumpling person, but steamed highlights the pleasantness of a thick wrapper. Best thing was the samosa chaat--one of the best I've had. As someone who only has gotten it in a takeaway soup container, it was beautiful to see the colorful dish plated and the flavors are intensely good. We also got thali dishes, which some with one free refill of the vegetables. Definitely very filling for one person. read more

The momo wrappers had that really nice texture of being not too chewy and not too papery. The jhol momo delivers the momos swimming in a delicious soup/broth that really adds a lot to each bite. The chili chicken was cooked very well with juicy chicken but I personally prefer mine slightly crisper than these or with the flavors better marinated into the chicken. The peanut sauce and hot sauce that came with everything were great complements for every dish. Everything was delicious and we left completely stuffed. Next time I want to try one of the thalis. We sat at the two stools at the counter until a two top opened up. The staff were incredibly hospitable and gave us a free chai pretty much immediately. The restaurant is not that large and the decoration is unremarkable but neat, clean, and cute. A great spot to reserve for a group ahead of time or to grab a meal with a friend.

Great time here!! Our server was so nice, friendly, and just a delight! Had good recs on the food and helpful with making decisions. We had the tea which was some of the best tea I've ever had, my bf said it tasted extra flavorful! We had two other dishes both were excellent. Definitely come in, try a few things and enjoy!! I would also add the momos were huge and so full! Came in an order of 8 or 9 which was also great for the price. read more

About half an hour ago, I encountered an issue with my delivery order. I called them, and instead of resolving it, they exchanged messages with me. At one point, they said, "It's on you, it's on you." If a customer orders delivery based on the photo of the meal the restaurant used to advertise, then everything in that photo should come with the delivery. I'm not talking about what the food looks like, but rather all the components of the dish that the photo advertises. I asked for the item, but they said they couldn't deliver it. Instead, they suggested I order more food, and they would give it to me. I said, Why should I order more food? This is on you all. Then I asked for a refund, and they refused. So, this is a lesson: if you have an issue with your food at this restaurant, they will come after you, the customer, rather than take accountability. I like the food here otherwise, but in terms of customer service, I would never patronize this place ever again. read more

Its good, its good! And they're so nice. I didn't realize there's ANOTHER location in Jackson Heights, Queens. It makes sense because they're fully ready to roll, and have not been there many months. So, I suppose its a build, on their success in Jackson Heights. (And if you have not been to Jackson Heights Queens for food?--its a playground! So many varieties of foods, and connects with Elmhurst which is part of the same playground). I shared with friend the veg thali, pork mo mo, and had a mango lassi and masali tea.

Some of the Indian dishes: paneer butter masala, palak paneer, chicken tikka masala. Some of the appetizers include crispy tofu, fried soybeans, a Nepali snack platter with marinated meat, goat, beef tripe, sliced beef tongue, fried jerky, duck. They also have a momo section. We had their famous chicken lollipops (essentially fried chicken) and it was crispy and spicy (in a good way). We also had sadeko (marinated or tossed) bacon, which was rich and tender. I had one of their Nepali cocktails, which was pleasantly spicy (the chatpata aam, made with tequila, spicy chatpatey syrup, and mango puree). Service was attentive.

It was a good portion, enough for one to finish. The lentil soup was on the saltier side, and the potatoes with string beans tasted a little fishy. But, altogether, everything was an interesting mix. I felt like I was eating a mix of Chinese- and Indian-inspired food. The mustard greens reminded me of Chinese fare, while the touch of spicy chutney reminded me of Indian cuisine. After the main meal, I tried their fried green tea ice cream. The dessert was beautifully presented, and tasted as I would have expected: a touch of bitterness from the green tea ice cream, covered in batter. While the food was maybe a 4, the ambiance was easily a 5. The artwork was breathtaking! Whoever commissioned the artwork did a great job.

On this occasion, I was visiting as part of my work responsibilities. The individuals I support are on limited incomes and cannot afford meals from establishments such as yours, so they bring their own lunches while staff members purchase food and beverages from your business. A manager approached us and informed us that outside food was not permitted, even though purchases had been made. We were then asked to leave and eat outside in the hot weather. I understand that businesses have policies regarding outside food, and I respect the need to enforce them. However, I believe this situation could have been handled with greater compassion and understanding, given that the group consisted of individuals with disabilities who rely on packed lunches due to financial limitations. As someone who has consistently supported your establishment, I was disappointed by the lack of flexibility and empathy shown. Unfortunately, because of this experience, I will no longer be bringing my business or the individuals I support to your establishment. I hope this feedback encourages your management team to consider a more accommodating approach when serving members of the disability community in the future.
