    Chicken
    Nikki C.

    My go to momo spot in Jackson's Heights. They are open late so that's dope. They also take venmo if you don't have cash on you!! The dumplings were chunky, filled with chicken (it's halal!), and comes with sauce. The chili sauce is SPICY. But anywho, they have the best momos in Queens!! I want to try other things on the menu like there spring rolls.

    I thoroughly enjoyed Mom's momos, opting for the delicious chicken ones complemented by a flavorful sauce. The hot sauce added a nice kick. While I wished for outdoor seating, being a food truck limits that. Amidst various momo trucks at the intersection in queens, I'm happy I chose Mom's. I sampled the steamed chicken momos, finding them tasty even later in the day when I brought it home. The chicken was filling and hit the spot. If you love spice and flavor, it might lean toward the milder side so you could ask more extra hot sauce. If you don't have cash, no worries since they also take Venmo.

    Good momos but not excellent. When you order, the sweet lady pan fries them to add a tinge of char and to heat them. What I feel they lack is scallions and the flavorful ingredients other competitors retain. Phayul restaurant and amdo truck are better. Just my honest opinion.

    I ordered the steamed chicken momos from this food truck after being recommended by my cousin. Having not tried momos prior, I was excited get my hands on their classic menu item. First of all, the flavor was so different (in a good way!) compared to other dumpling-type foods I've had. Each of the momos were fairly large and overall the price point was affordable. I did question, however, how fresh the food was given its texture and presentation (slightly slimier than steamed dumplings I've had in the past and a couple momos were ripped). That being said, I am glad to have tried them. Flavor: the combination of the creamy white sauce with the spicy red was perfectly balanced and definitely elevated the flavors of the momos. If you can handle spicy foods, I highly recommend just drizzling both sauces over the plate.

    We ordered some momos when we saw their truck during some type of street festival near Central Park. We ordered steamed chicken momos and weren't disappointed. The staff wasn't the friendliest but they were trying to get through the line. I would have liked some explanation on the sauces that were provided. They also told me they don't have Mountain Dew, even though their menu showed a picture of one. Overall, the food doesn't lie and we really enjoyed trying the momos. They weren't steaming hot once we found a spot in the park but thats not their fault since we had to walk a few blocks. I definitely recommended finding this food truck and giving Tibetan momos a shot!

    This was my first time trying momo's, it was late night after 2 am and not many options, we had the beef momo & chicken momo. They just ok, the floor around the truck was dirty with trash thrown on the floor. Don't think I would go back here.

    Combo momos and pork buns

    The food truck was outside the Fifth Hammer Brewery. We ordered the combo option - which is your choice of momos and then a spring roll. The beef momo was nothing to write home about. The pork buns were hoisin sauce forward and not juicy.

    Steamed beef momos $5

    What you need to know: - Found their truck near the 74th Street - Roosevelt subway station in Jackson Heights, where are a handful of momo trucks. - Food was made to order and was fair fast. - Very friendly guy, service with a smile! - Closed on Sundays. - Prices are comparable to the other trucks. What we ordered: - Chicken momos (pan fried), price $6 - This was a clear winner! Pan fried cost $1 extra but is definitely worth the money. Pan fried to perfection and provides a nice contrast of crunch to the momos. The chicken meat was also juicy, but didn't have too much flavor. - Beef momos (steamed) $5 - The momos were juicy, but the meat itself was dry and bland. I also would have enjoyed it a tad more if there were more herbs or something contrasting the meat like onions, it tasted like a ball of meat. The steamed beef was definitely dry compared to the pan fried chicken momos.

    I was very pleased with the selection this food truck offers. I really enjoyed the momos and will definitely go back again!

    Momos!!!

    Another stop on my first Jackson Heights food tour. This Nepalese spot offers Nepali foot,…read moreBhutanese food, Tibetan food, and Indian food. The food types are similar but offer different spice/flavor profiles. They have a large section of noodles, soup, and rice. A veggie section with various combos of cauliflower, potatoes, onion, bamboo, blackened peas, mustard greens, and spices. 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. Inside is cozy, lots of dark wood and colorful flags. They also often have entertainment in the evening, so I would love to return to hear some live music while trying more Nepali cuisine.

    A bit overrated and overshadowed by the nice ambiance…read more I may be biased since I've been to Nepal twice and my palate consisted of dal bhat every single day I was there (momos were a luxury on the trek)--which in no way makes me an expert, but the taste and portions were pretty consistently similar among most places. The first time that I came here was about 3 years ago with a few friends and we liked the food - the beef tongue was different and super memorable and the jhol momos were just swimming in flavorful curry. Made me want to come back again. Fast-forward three years later, I feel like things have changed significantly. Or maybe I didn't catch them at their best, but I came with another group of friends and I just felt overall disappointed with the food, as did my friends who were excited to try Himalayan food for the first time. I had the goat dhat bhat and the small amount of meat served in aesthetically pleasing bowls to mask the portion was disappointing--and this was not a lunch special or anything. I mainly got a big bone and realistically got about 2-3 small bites of actual meat, while there was an overwhelming amount of rice and veggies. The momos also tasted like they were pre-made and heated or steamed up again because the dough was definitely a little rough. Overall, this experience was a meh for me. I think it is a social staple for many Nepalese and Tibetans in the area, and just for that.
