    Chicken momos, daal, chicken chowmein, garlic naan, chicken sekwa
    Priyanka B.

    I'm so happy we finally got a Nepali reasturant in the area! I've gotten food from here at least once a week since they opened. I remember my dad and I counting the days till they opened. My favorite is obviously the nepali momo. I usually get the chicken, chicken jhol, and goat momos. I also love the chowmein. I usually go straight to the Nepali section on the menu, and haven't ordered any "Indian" food from here yet. The price has gone up a lot since they opened, likely due to how good the food is and how popular the place has become. I'm just glad, I can always come here when I crave momos rather than waiting for an occasion to cook it myself. The place is clean, and service is great as well!

    78. Goat Curry (Bone-In)

    Drove from OC to this Himalayan spot, and found the drive absolutely worthwhile! Started with a couple of masala chais and complimentary lentil soup, perfect to warm us up on a rainy day. Grabbed an extra masala chai to go at the end! Chicken sekuwa was the standout dish. Tender spiced chicken with a tangy sauce and the perfect amount of heat - not to mention the appealing plating! This is a must try. We also got momos - was hoping they had yak but settled for lamb. Not bad and the sauce brightened up the slightly dry momos, but overall not outstanding either. Goat curry had meat just as tender as the sekuwa, proving that their meat dishes are no fluke. The curry itself is on the milder and lighter side in both flavor and consistency, not a bad thing if you don't want to feel heavy and stuffed. Place was moderately busy for a Sunday lunch, we were seated right away but servers did have their hands full with other tables. A slower paced place, but the patience pays off.

    Lunch special

    Clean and spacious inside- booths feel private- service was impeccable. Fast, friendly, food was good size portions, AMAZING FLAVORS, tons of choices! And garlic and cheese naan was cherry on top! Mango chutney was delicious! Everything was great! Will be back to try more dishes!!

    Wow! What can I say more than wow? And I only walked in the smell of the food was intoxicating. We were greeted immediately and sat. We ordered the chicken korma, the sizzling chicken Momo, and the chicken tikka along with garlic naan. I have eaten a lot of Indian food in my life and this place was absolutely delicious. The presentation, the flavor, the texture. The sizzling chicken Momo was something that we had never tried as it was off the Napolis menu and it did not disappoint. So many amazing flavors it was a completely different flavor profile from anything I've tried before. If you haven't tried this place you really should..

    Lunch special naan, saag paneer, chicken tikka masala, salad, and dessert.
    Lyric R.

    Great food, nice and clean interior, polite service. I've tried most of the Indian food nearby and this is the best. It's certainly a little better eating in than getting delivery but I generally expect that. Their new lunch specials are a great deal!

    The chili chicken is just delicious. They ask you what level of spicy do you want it from a scale 1-5 and to me three was just perfect. Service was excellent. On a Friday at 5:40, there was no waiting (but there should be because of how delicious the food is )

    Lunch Special

    Met with a friend here for lunch today and got their lunch special with Saag paneer and chicken tikka masala. Everything was really good and for those of you who want a smaller portion of menu items so you can try more stuff , this size was perfect. I wish the naan stayed more soft but when you're dipping it, it don't matter much. Good service and plenty of seats.

    Lunch special

    Absolute best place for Indian cuisine in the IE. every time I come in the service is great and the food is spectacular. Flavorful with amazing portion. Nepalese inspired dishes as well so you have so many options! If you come from 11-3pm the lunch special is the way to go. You get two options of appetizers, a dessert, salad, naan, and rice for less than 15 dollars. Definitely give this place a try!

    Kheer, Mango Ice Cream
    Angela D.

    yummm nepalese food. first time trying nepalese and 10/10 experience would def come again ordered: vegetable samosa, daal soup, vegetable momo, vegetable chow mein, mango ice cream, kheer, mango lassi vegetable samosa: not a favorite, had better daal soup: complimentary thought it needed salt though vegetable momo: DELICIOUSSS. imagine vegetarian chinese dumplings of bland boiled cabbage EXCEPT in this momo it actually tastes good and full of flavor i like my dumpling dough to be thin and this was a bit thick for me either frm the frying or it's just thick to start. would order again!! i liked this more than the chicken momo! vegetable chow mein: order mango chutney on side and omg it is delicious mango ice cream: apparently homemade. was like cubed mango sorbet and why did it have chocolate syrup and sprinkles? a bit misleading kheer: also homemade, and better than what i had at the gudwara, omg it was delicioussss mango lassi: better than bottled mango lassi, also delicious overall: definitely coming again, service was amazing and our guy was funny, real w his recommendations. house was packed on a tues night! i liked the vibes, were chill. favorites: vegetables momo, mango lassi, kheer

    Chicken Biryani Chicken Tikka Masala Garlic Cilantro Naan
    Isaac Z.

    Food was amazing. Ordered one Chicken Biryani, one Chicken Tikka Masala, and one order of Garlic Cilantro Naan and it was all delicious. The servers were friendly, and the inside was decorated and clean! I have to come back to try more of what they have to offer :)

    Mango Ice Cream
    Bonnie S.

    Still excellent food and service. We order it to go often but enjoy dining in as well. Tried the mango ice cream which we all loved. Very fresh and not too sweet. I absolutely love the nepali salad that they serve at lunch. Wish they kept it on the menu for dinner, lucky me they had some available that night. Will continue coming back and recommending it to everyone. Nice quiet and clean restaurant.

Food (4.5/5) - Tried a lot of essentials like chicken biryani, chicken tikka masala, mango curry, lamb chops, butter chicken and garlic naan. Everything had great flavor, decent price, and were good portion sizes. Just thought the biryani was a bit too dry for me. Service (3/5) - Really could use some improvement on this one, had to ask multiple times or flag someone down to ask for items like water/napkins even the check several times. The servers here are very softspoken and sometimes unclear without repeating a few times. They are very nice, regardless. Just slow service. Ambiance (5/5) - The design of this place is classy and comfortable. There's a bar by the entrance and the dining area feels roomy, this small-midsize restaurant seems great for groups.

We…read morereally enjoyed some of the dishes we ordered, while a few others were just okay or a bit lacking in flavor. Our favorites were the Vada Pav, Pav Bhaji (we ordered the Classic), Chole Bhatura, and the Jaamun Shot. The Papdi Chaat was exactly what we expected and was decent. The Bhel Puri and Pani Puri were probably our least favorite dishes. For the pani puri, the pani was bland and lacking flavor and the puri barely had any filling. The Bhel Puri was more tart than I expected and could have used a bit more green chutney and sweet chutney. I didn't try it myself, but my father-in-law ordered the Masala Jaljeera and he didn't seem to be a big fan. He mentioned that maybe he should have ordered the Kokum Jeera Soda instead. The restaurant is clean and the ambiance casual. Service was a little slow at the beginning, but once we placed our order, the food came out very quickly. I do wish they had given us a little more time to enjoy a few dishes before bringing out the rest. Our table felt pretty crowded when everything came out at the same time and we were shuffling dishes to make space while we ate. To be fair, we ordered a lot of food, and we probably could have asked for the dishes to be brought out in stages. Overall, I'm giving it 4 stars, though I'd probably place it somewhere between 3.5 and 4. I'd definitely come back to try other menu items if I was in the area.

    My first visit finally after driving past it for months. (I…read moremissed out having not stopped in sooner but I'll definitely be making up for that now!) I received the kindest welcome and delightful service and help from Nisha, who explained the dishes to me and recommended The Combo for my first visit. Such a great suggestion since I had never dined at an Indian Cuisine restaurant before. Each one of the servings in the combo was incredibly flavorful, delicious and very filling. I loved each and every one of them! I even had leftovers to bring home, which I am already looking forward to enjoying. The garlic naan bread is out of this world! Their Mango Lassi is indescribably delicious and Nisha informed me that the yogurt they use is made fresh in the restaurant. It tasted so clean and amazing. Definitely going to be hooked on that!!! The atmosphere was so nice and peaceful after a long busy and stressful week. Exactly what I needed. No loud music or noise that people had to talk over. Very, very nice and relaxing. Thank you for the atmosphere as well. Nisha also blessed me with a rice pudding to try and I can hardly wait to make it my evening snack. Thank you so much for making me feel so welcome on my first visit. I already feel like part of the family with the way Nisha made me feel so valued as more than just a customer......I left there honestly feeling like family. I'll be seeing you all soon and often!

We found this place online and decided to fuel our bellies here. Upon entering there are seats on both sides of the restaurant with the serving area and cashier in the middle. We decided to dine-in and they helped us with ordering. I ordered the Dinner Special Thali ($15.99) which comes with 2 entrees, daal, rice, naan, mango lassi, samosa or kheer. I was allowed to choose 3 entrees of my choice from the select options they had in their serving area (not from all the entrees they have on their menu). I like options and variety, so from their limited entrees I chose mushroom saag (spinach based), chicken tikka, and their paneer tikka. I'm glad I got to taste different options but I like the chicken the best. I also chose the kheer and got the mango lassi as my drink. My boyfriend ordered the butter chicken ($14.99), basmati rice ($3.99), and the cheese naan which we asked if they can add garlic and they kindly did ($4.99). Everything was delicious and came out in a timely manner. On the tv's they were playing Indian music and their music videos, which were entertaining to watch. ---- Overall: the price point and tasty food are reasons we'd be stopping by if we're ever in the area again or driving back to SD, definitely check this place out if you want some yummy Indian food in Riverside at a reasonable price!

For a restaurant in a touristy area, it still lands at a solid 3.5 to 4 stars, but the experience has definitely taken a step back. Cleanliness - there's a fly constantly going up and down the window we sat next to. It was getting a lot of my attention but alas I did not have a fly swatter. Lucky sob!!! Food - portion sizes felt smaller. While Indian dishes aren't typically huge, the presentation this time made them look a bit meager--it could be the dinnerware, the presentation? I don't know. Flavor-wise, something has changed for the worse. The Chicken Tikka Masala was decent, but lacked the rich depth and spice profile of our previous visits. The Fish Vindaloo suffered a similar fate. It wasn't bad, but it lacked that bold, signature Indian flavor. Also, using salmon felt like a misstep; its strong flavor tends to clash with vindaloo spices rather than absorb them. Side note, this dish was not at all spicy. And the server never asked us about the spiciness level of any of the dishes we ordered. Maybe they only offer non-spicy for all their dishes?? The same vindaloo dish at our favorite Indian restaurant in L.A. is very spicy and full of other favors. Service was just ok. The restaurant was quiet, with far more empty tables than occupied ones, yet the food took quite a while to come out. At one point, at least four servers were standing around the counter watching the dinning hall. Yet, other than delivering the food, no one came to any of the tables to check on them once the food had been delivered. Multiple times nearby tables waved their hands in the air to get attention after they got their food. We overheard one young man asking for hot sauce and chuckled - so someone else wanted their food spicier, too!
