Jhol Momo
Lauren C.

Great dumpling! I got the jhol jhol momo dumplings with a side of naan bread. The broth in the dumplings was amazing and super tasty. The dumplings were delicious as well. The naan bread was nice to dip in the broth, I wouldn't order just to eat by itself. They have several other dishes I want to come back and try. Will be back for the dumplings for sure. It's a small restaurant but it does have seating inside. Service is pretty quick and they do delivery.

Jhol Momo ( 10pcs)

The most Slept on in Nepal style spot in DC . Whole in the wall type vibes but clean and presentable enough to casually dine in . Even the kitchen looked clean and organized . The register greeter was cool and patient as I navigated the menu ( first timer ) . The wait time was reasonable as well 10-15 minutes tops . I've eaten here 3 times already and each time I go the food taste better than before . I got the Jhol Momo / C Momo ( both are flavorful ) with the C Momo being my favorite . The best Momos I've tasted in the city thus far . I'm going back to try other vegetarian options on the menu ( plant based eater ) Jhol Momo 7.5 /10 ( be sure to stir the soup before eating , to get all the flavors moving through the soup ) C Momo 10/10 savory , Slightly sweet , with a strong kick of spice ( 4 /5 spice level , creeps up on you will burn your lips and make your nose run for sure ) * to my knowledge all the chefs are from Nepal which means we get the authentic taste of their culture.

Chicken Biryani
Austin G.

Surrounded by small restaurants from around the world, Moh Moh Licious stands out with excellent food from a Nepalese chef. The small shop is known for their dumplings, but don't sleep on there biryani. The chicken one comes out hot with the perfect blend of spices, well cooked chicken, and a yogurt sauce on the side. For just under $20, it was big and very filling. There are a few tables inside and an area with cold water in jugs. It hit the spot!

Charming little place with great food, friendly staff, and excellent service. I ordered the pork momos and achari lamb. Taste wise they were excellent, but the serving of the Achari Lamb was too small for the price in my opinion. Food also didn't come with any veggies, which is a miss in terms of a balanced meal for me. If you want to eat in, keep in mind the dining area is super tiny (3 tables with max seating for 8 ppl total). If you are relying on Google to help guide you to the restaurant, be sure to note the entrance to the restaurant is on Georgia Avenue itself. I followed Google maps, which led me to behind the restaurant and discovered there was no rear entrance and so had to double back. Be sure not to make the same mistake I did!

Delicious food. We ordered 8 dishes. Two momo, daal, butter chicken, veg chow mein, chicken biryani, okra, and achari lamb + tandoori roti. Half the dishes came with rice. Everything was excellent. Especially liked the C momo, chicken biryani, and tandoori roti. Ambiance is not fancy and quite small. Pretty quick service; they weren't busy when we arrived but seemed to have increased pickup business. Not sure we need to eat in again; it's not a bad atmosphere and is fast... but is a great carry-out spot.

Their Moh Mohs were delicious. I had the chicken variety with tamarind chutney. They were made fresh. It took a few minutes and when they came they were steaming hot. The wrapper was perfect. Slightly thicker than normal and held the filling well. Went on a Sunday morning and street parking outside the restaurant on Georgia ave was free. Otherwise it's a 2hr paid parking. The place is good for take out but had a few tables if you want to dine in.

Eating the food here was almost like a religious experience. You walk from the cold streets of DC and open up to a vibrantly colored shop with not a lot of tables. Just enough to dine a large group and maybe a few duos. But I would argue you would stand hunched over just to eat a Beef Momo. The blend of flavors, spices, creaminess is wonderful. It's also served like piping hot and biting into a hot, fully packed, and fresh Momo may be one of the best things I've ever done for myself. I'm so glad I walked into this place. It is honest when it says it's spicy! You know it's authentic to someone's personal recipe because we found ourselves picking whole cloves and cardamom pods out from the Lamb Biryani. You order at the window after looking at a written menu that has the charming elements of being hand drawn later on. They even keep magazine clippings of all their awards. More must come! More must come!

I ordered beef moh moh with the sesame tomate sauce and it was delicious. The delivery was on time and the presentation was nice. I also had the Tamarind lemonade. It was a bit sweet for my tastebuds but the flavor was definitely there. I would order both again and plan to stop by in person during the warmer months.

Delicious food that is of the highest quality! Cannot wait to go back to sample more options!

Chicken Biryani and Jhol Momo
Priscilla D.

My first ever order from Moh Moh was on a food delivery app. I had a crazy craving for chicken biryani so I ordered that and had to get some momos since that's the name of the restaurant. The serving of biryani was massive! It was enough for literally three meals. The spices were just right and it was so tasty. I thought the momos would just be like regular dumplings but they were fat, filled with goodness and in a decadent sauce. Those could have been a meal in their own. The price is right, the servings are huge and the food is delicious. Try this spot!

Curry
Carol K.

Divine! The Shrimp Curry and Pork Mo Mo Dumplings with Red Spicy Tangy Sauce are such a treat! I also tried the Chicken Curry, Samosa Chat and Garlic Naan. You can tell everything is made from scratch. If it was this good delivered, I can only imagine how good the food is in person. You have a forever customer in me!

Vegetable Dumplings
Steve A.

Hidden place with Nepali food. It's almost like a literal hole in the wall how small this is. Moh Moh Licious specializes in the dumplings from Nepal. Fast and good. The place doesn't have seating so it's only takeout. Good for a fast bite. If you're in a serious hurry you can call ahead but this still won't even help that much. The food is basically takeout. Come in and order at the counter. They specialize in moh mohs. If you haven't heard if these, they're basically dumplings. These get filled with meats or vegetables. It's about $6 for 6which is enough for an appetizer. This comes with a choice of a sauce. It can be hard to get to from outside the area. Some busses go by it. This is closest to the Takoma Metro station.

Pork Dumplings (MoMo) with the side of spicy tangy sauce
Jasmine N.

More like 4.5 stars. I ordered delivery through door dash from here on Friday. I got the pork dumplings wit the spicy sauce, and the okra entree. I didn't realize the okra was a complete meal so I got a lot of food. The dumplings were good and flavorful. The okra entree came with a chickpea side, rice, and a salad. I was really impressed with the amount of food you get. The okra was in like a stew. It was very good. The spices were right and the okra shined even with all the fixings in the dish. I liked everything. My only critique is I wish they gave more sauce for the dumplings. From their pictures, it appears these dumplings are supposed to be smothered in sauce, however for takeout, they put it on the side. I understand they probably do so for the dumpling to not get too soggy, but the little side of sauce isn't enough and the sauce was also a bit cold. I Would've preferred it tossed over the dumplings and smothered. especially to get the real experience of how they should be. However, the dumplings were still very good!

Garlic Naan (PLENTY of garlic. Not for date night.)

It's also a short walk from Takoma Metro. Cute and casual place. I didn't need reservations on Friday night or Monday night coming around 6:30 or 7 PM. It's probably harder and bigger groups but if you're just coming in two or four or even six, it should be pretty manageable. My favorite here is the pad Thai. I get extra lime and the spicy tray. And it's one of the best pad Thais I've had. The drunken noodles was OK and the green curry was OK for me. Not bad but also not what I'd be returning for (I'm coming back for pad thai!) my husband loved the green curry though. Service is pleasant and nothing over the top and water is topped off timely manner. Absolutely no complaints. They have two single stall bathrooms and that's kept pretty clean. They're outside seating is for takeout so that's kind of pleasant if you wanna do takeout and just eat it outside.

And just like that, 1123 Huncho House closes its doors. We made it on the very last day…read morereservations secured and all. A proper send off. I'll be honest, I wasn't the biggest fan throughout their run but supporting local businesses matters to me and a closing deserved a final visit. I'm glad I went. In true 1123 fashion the menu looked nothing like what I remembered completely different. But the off menu specials stepped up and delivered. I went with the lamb rack, suya potatoes and eggs which was pretty decent across the board. No complaints, solid final plate. Now the churro waffles, first time trying them and somehow they saved the best for last. The texture was perfect, the flavor delivered and I'm already mourning them. Those alone made the final visit worth it. Service was surprisingly fast and smooth for a last day operation, which honestly says a lot about how they chose to go out. Head held high. It wasn't always my favorite spot but they were local owned and they deserved their flowers on the way out. Rest well 1123.

My solo reservation was at 10 p.m., which was perfect timing for me. Similar to their former sister restaurant, Huncho House, I was offered a complimentary glass of champagne prior to being seated. The decor and ambiance at 1123 were noticeably more upscale, and I really enjoyed the overall experience. I honestly wish I hadn't waited until their final days to try it. I really wanted the Chuck Rice & Oxtails, but they had just run out. So, I opted for the Lobster Jollof instead, and it was delicious! But the Star of the night was the Charbroiled Oysters. These were, hands down, the best oysters I've ever had in my life! They were deliciously washed down with the Lavender Lotus cocktail. The night ended with the Plantain Bread Pudding. It was very dense, and I didn't really taste much of the plantain flavor. I took two bites, decided it needed some help; maybe soak it in some Baileys Irish Cream at home. Unfortunately, after taking photos, I left my To-Go bag at the restaurant. Overall, I'm glad I finally made it to 1123 before the end of its run in the DMV. It's always a little bittersweet when a restaurant closes.

None of us were from this area, and we intended to go to the Mayflower Chinese Restaurant, based on Yelp reviews. However, once we walked in the door, it was apparent this place was focused on carryout, and there was no way we were staying to eat in their dingy entrance area. We walked next door to the Meleket Ethiopian restaurant. However, the place was deserted, and we didn't stay there either. We tried the Lime & Cilantro, the next place down, but it was packed and couldn't handle our group. So, we skipped past the verernary clinic and went to Spring Garden. And, what a great choice that was. They offer a huge menu of Chinese, Thai, and Japanese meals. Everything is reasonably priced. Once we got our food, we were impressed with the quality and portion sizes. And, through it all, the service was prompt and friendly. I ordered Hot and Sour soup (my bellwether for Chinese restaurants) and beef chow fun. The soup was flavorful without being overpowering, and the chow fun was delicious too. I liked everything so much that I ordered another soup and Thai Basil with Chicken to go, and that's been my lunch for the past couple of days. Don't be put off by the seediness of its location. Spring Garden is a great place to grab some tasty, reasonably priced food, either to eat in or take away.

Fantastic Indian food in Silver Spring, plus great service and lovely decor! I need to go here more…read moreoften. My friend was visiting and there's no good Indian food near her, so of course that's where we were going to go. I've tried Spice Street a few times and have always enjoyed it. We started with mango lassies and the samosa chat. The samosas are served split with a pile of chickpeas and several sauces. It was messy and very good, although next time I might just try the samosas are their own. The mango lassi is SO GOOD! So good! Just get it and thank me later. For our meal we decided to share the dal makhani, saag paneer, and shrimp coconut masala, with a side of garlic naan. We ordered way too much so that we could have some delicious leftovers and that worked out really well. Everything was excellent! I particularly liked the shrimp coconut masala, and would definitely order that again. The saag was a bit spicy for me, but the dal was amazing, perfectly creamy and so flavorful. The garlic naan was perfectly cooked and not oily at all, which you sometimes get at other restaurants. We were incredibly full, but couldn't stop without dessert. We shared the gulab jamen, which was so yummy (as long as you like incredibly sweet, which I do). A special shout out to the team of wait staff, who were all really friendly and responsive. They were great! I now have enough leftovers for at least three more meals. Woot! Go here! Get Indian! Enjoy!
