I got the goat curry and I got it mild, I can't handle spicy foods and I always get scared that it might be too spicy but this was perfect. I do wish there were more goat pieces but overall amazing. The veg rolls didn't come with any sauce so a bit dry to me, but I dipped them in the curry and they were good. read more

Mousam Spice House - Goat Curry (Bone- In) & Veg Rolls - Indian Near Me - Austin, Texas

We got their: Veg Momos - loved it. Properly steamed, the chutney was delicious! Veg Fried Rice - the best thing I had there. Reminded me of authentic Indo Chinese Paneer Chowmein - the Chowmein itself was good. The paneer wasn't great. Too dry. The staff were friendly and I love that it's open until so late. read more

I ordered goat biryani and chicken tikka, but they mixed up the order and gave me paneer biryani instead of goat. I was disappointed, especially since I was really looking forward to the goat. To their credit, I called and they quickly apologized and sent out a fresh goat biryani without any hassle -- didn't even ask for the incorrect one back. Really appreciated how they handled it. Chicken tikka: 4/5 -- tasty and flavorful, just needed a few more pieces to feel like a full portion. Paneer & goat biryani: 3/5 -- decent, but both could've used more spice and boldness. For a place called Spice House, I expected a bit more heat and complexity. Overall, the service recovery was solid, but the mix-up and average flavor keep this at 3 stars for me. read more

This food truck was recommended as a top Nepalese spot in Austin. I checked it out and tried the chicken and egg chow mein combo, and I thought it was really delicious. The prices were fair and the wait time was reasonable. There are so many other items to try on the menu so I'm looking forward to returning! read more

I have been to the other Mousam Spice House Food Trailer when it was located in the parking lot of the Shell Gas Station near I-35 and 38th street. The food was pretty good, the service was nice and friendly. That was close to a 5-star experience, but since then that trailer has moved to (I believe) Guadalupe St. area. I recently discovered this location down near S. Lamar / Brodie area. It's also in the parking lot of a gas station. I ordered the Butter Chicken, and that is the only dish I decided to order because I noticed the prices have increased to $13 per dish. That was a letdown but I am hoping the quality and quantity remained constant. Quality yes, quantity no. The food came out piping hot, the service was nice, and Butter Chicken was good. Nothing outstanding or outta this world, but good. One noticeable observation (and another major letdown) was the significant reduction in portion sizing. And I am talking about 25%. So they raised prices and also reduced the container size as the the previous containers were round and deeper, these new containers are rectangle, smaller, shallow in depth, and about the size of my I-Phone 14 Plus. And that's a pretty small portion for $13. In the past I could not eat everything and had plenty of leftovers, while this time around I could nearly finish the entire dish. So as a result this potential 4-star review is downgraded to a 2-star (Could of Been Better) because it used to be better and it's a lot less now. I get if you want to raise the price, but they hit customers with a double whammy by also significantly reducing portions at the same time which ends up being a double negative for customers and a double benefit for the business. I can pay $13+ for the same Butter Chicken at a dine-in restaurant - and they have larger portions so you get more for your money. If you do a hypothetical cost break down my dish, it had several slices of chicken, gravy, spices, 2oz of cream and 2+ cups of rice. That likely costs them under $3-4 to make, so in the end they are making plenty of profit. So as a result the food here doesn't have enough wow-factor and isn't good enough to justify the higher price with the smaller portions. It's not enough to keep me coming back. Had they kept the same portions I would continue to come back but not anymore. read more

Wow! I was not expecting this to be that good!! The tikka masala. The naan. The samosas. Most restaurants in Austin just slap the ingredients together thinking the final taste is close enough! Not here! Mousam Spice House #3 is exceptionally good in a sea of seemingly similar food options. read more

True to its name, the food is spicy and flavorful, so much so that even the least spicy option was a bit hot. The veg combo order is a good value, it includes chow mein, fried rice and momos. The fried veg momos were delicious but everything else could do with a little less black pepper and jalapenos. Mango lassi was more sour, less sweet. read more

Came here for lunch on an afternoon with my mom. The two folks working there were very kind and helpful, they took my order promptly and I only had to wait maybe 10 mins or so which isn't bad at all! The food was served up VERY hot, it was actually difficult to eat my chicken tikka masala because it was 1. Very well spiced (ie delicious!), 2. Very hot, temperature was, and 3. Hot as heyalllll outside because it was August in Austin. Nevertheless, the food was so tasty I ate about half before I was sweating too much. I cooled off eating my rasmalai dessert though which was juuuust perfect! My mom had the fettuccini pasta since she couldn't do heavily spiced food at the time and she also really liked it but was sweating from heat. I really appreciated their prompt and tasty food though, and appreciate the little tables you can eat at if you choose to. The chicken tikka was $12 and came with basmati rice, and the pasta was $9. Overall I think it was really good value for price, and the workers even gave me a water bottle for free since they saw me sitting there sweating I will absolutely come back to try other things later since I do love and periodically crave Indian food, plus this will be my new rasmalai spot! ($2.50 for two pieces). Great place - give it a try if looking for Indian food in the area! It's shares the parking lot with the shell gas station, and you can park in the Thai restaurant's overflow area just behind it as well. read more

The saag paneer and dal were excellent. If you're craving for good food this is the one. read more

This is a nice food truck next to Shell. The people working there are from Nepal and are very nice and will answer any questions that you may have. The fries were alright, would be better if they were crispy and the sauce they gave along with it is different but not bad. Their fried veggie momos are really good- being crispy on the outside and juicy in the inside. read more

so so so good! fresh, hot and delish Nepali food with great service. having been to Nepal twice, this was a wonderful experience

We picked up a paneer biryani and a chicken fried rice for dinner. The meal was prepared when ordered so it was satisfying to see it was fresh. The paneer biryani had generous amounts of paneer in it. The flavors were excellent and it came with raita and achar. I could easily make 1.5 meals from it. My husband enjoyed his fried rice too. Pricing for both items was reasonable. Will certainly be back to try more items on the menu. read more

This was our third or forth time here, no issues before. This time, 1 star and won't go back. Ordered 2 Lamb Masala and a butter paneer. Each lamb dish had 6 small pieces of lamb and full of sauce. Previous visits we have had leftovers, not today. Super small portions for the price. read more

Been wanting to try it this place for months and finally did tonight. Ordered butter chicken and garlic naan. Saw them pull out the naan from the freezer and heated up on a burner. 90 percent it's from Trader Joe's( I have the same in my freezer and they look and taste identical). Too top it off there was a hair on the naan! The butter chicken had zero spice and was very sweet, with bland flavor. Maybe an off night but one and done for me. read more

We had steamed & fried vegetarian momos that were amazing & the fries that had masala on top! The fried rice could've used a little more salt & it was okay. Service was efficient & ambiance was obv dependent on the weather lol it's by roadside at a gas station so def love the street food/food truck vibes. read more

Best North Indian/Nepali food in town. Dhaba style saag. Goat curry (off menu) redolent of cardamom with the kind of thin sauce you get at someone's home. Chow mein with a masala so good you can't stop eating, even when it hurts. Excellent, succulent momos, both chicken and veg. Some times they can add too much salt, but that's a rare off night. read more

This food truck is located in the shell station's lot right by the self serve car wash however you can easily order from the delivery apps as well which was the route I opted for. I got the butter chicken which was creamy and buttery; it's so hard to find a creamy curry these days. I wanted more spicy though - so next time will try some of the other curries. I also ordered samosa which came with a tamarind dipping sauce. I also got naan which was ok but not as good as other places. The Mango lassi had enough tartness from the yogurt so it wasn't too. They also have some indo-Chinese items on there menu- will try these in the future. read more

Absolutely in love with their fried momo! & taste of the chowmein was amazing too.! Quick and easy food service from the food truck! Easy and convenient location just near to exit and at gas station parking! read more

This officially took title for best momos in town. Sandesh who is cook and the owner of the place knows his ways around the spices alley to get you the best taste you can get. We trekked several dishes as you can see in the pictures and all of them reminded us of street side food in India that we miss the most. Guess what this place is on the side of the street next to a gas station too. So you get the taste and the vibe as well. You'll find enough parking, you can sit in your car and eat or take one of the two picnic tables right outside. Owner is very very friendly and understand the need. read more

New food truck in the Shell Fuel parking lot. We had the Tikka Masala with chicken and added paneer. It was really good; flavorful with a good amount of spice. It wasn't very tomato-y though. We also had garlic naan and the vegetable egg rolls. The sauce with the egg rolls was really good. I felt like the naan needed salt in the dough, but it was still good. Everything was hot and fresh. We waited about 15 minutes from placing our order to it being ready. Will definitely be back. read more

Amazing . Momo is amazing and the rest of the entrees are worth trying as well. Legit authentic Nepali/Indian cuisine

Pretty good butter chicken but the butter naan was a total scam for the price, only got one piece and it cost $3.49 before tax

The Indochinese chicken chow mein is amazing here! I enjoy the butter chicken and chili chicken as well. Not typical Indian curries they are indochinese a bit different. The price and portions are fair I am a big fan. read more

Really should put allergens / warnings on the menu. Asked if there was any nuts in the mo-mos and after a long deliberation the cashier told me no. Began eating and immediately realized that there was some kind of nut in either the sauce or food. Thankfully my allergy is not incredibly severe but still unfortunate I spent $14 on these things when if they put the ingredients on the menu this could have easily been avoided. read more

I really liked the lamb tacos and the hot and sour soup. The chow mein was unfortunately not good. I love chow mein, but in this case the noodles were dry and not very flavorful. I also ordered goat as the protein and there were lots of bones in it. I really liked most of it, but I won't be ordering the chow mein again. I am excited to try their other dishes though. read more

The food is so fresh and delicious!! We got the samosas, chai, lamb masala, chicken masala, butter chicken, and the garlic naan. This whole experience was excellent. 10/10 DO recommend. read more

Worst Indian food I ever had. This is not the taste that we promote. I ordered it being very excited but was disappointed after having only one-bite. I ordered chicken biryani, veg pakoras and gulab jamun. Surprisingly, all three of the items were 0/10. Chicken biryani had no taste at all and the color was so red. It looked that they just boiled the rice and added color with spiced chicken only. Pakoras were not fully cooked and gulab jamun was so hard and wasn't even sweet. It was supposed to be sweet as it was dessert, wasn't it ? Not recommended at all. read more

good customer service and veg noodles are my favorite. Totally coming back to try more!!!

Loved the food! Flavorful and spicy He made the food right in front of us Close to the airport. Conveniently located read more

I work late and sometimes, I do crave for good Indian food. I went there and had: Chicken fried momos Butter chicken Garlic naan I absolutely loved what I had! The butter chicken is extremely creamy and very North Indian - a little sweet and vert flavourful - which is not easy to find in Austin. Also, the momos were perfect - crispy on the outside and well cooked and juice on the inside! I am definitely going back to try other dishes! Keep up the great work guys :) read more

I only can speak for their chow mien. It was the best. I can't say I'd recommend their curries but the chow mien here was incredible. I highly recommend it's like Singapore style noodles that's spicy and Indo Chinese style! read more

Excellent customer service - incredible curry and lentils. The mango lassi was heavenly.

I may or may not have gotten some Delta 9 midnight munchies, but this place hit the spot. My only complaint was the garlic naan portion was tiny, it was 1 small piece of folded naan, not exactly an order. read more

Real good food, forgot to take a pic but I ordered the chicken chow mein. It was spicy good! Super convenient and quick.

Fast and friendly. Nice portions. Naan isn't naan, it's flat break. Not nearly as good. The tikka Marsala is just a bit too sweet and just lacks something. Chicken is bit dry. read more
