    Had this on my list from a NYT review a while back but I think it's changed name/ownership since then. Came at 7 PM on a Saturday night and the place was totally empty - maybe they're doing a good takeout/delivery business because otherwise? Anyway, I had a solid meal and service was good. I tried: + Steamed beef momo + Crispy Mala fish filet + Green beans + Tingmo The Sichuan menu items were better than the Tibetan menu items! Fish and green beans were amazing. Beef momos were a little dry but had great flavor. The tingmo is similar to a steam bun in consistency but it's very plain/doughy so maybe get something saucy or soupy to dip it in.

    Only on Sunday this restaurant is closed and on the second floor there is a Burmese Breakfast but was more like Lunch or Dinner portions. Saw it on TikTok with 4-venders, when we went there were 3-venders, after we got our food it got busy fast with all the tables filling up. Very friendly couple selling 6- dishes, across from them a stoic man of few words but sure handed as he assembled my noodle soup dish, and across from the stair a pass thru window from small kitchen with smiling 2-ladies who sold drinks and food. Banquet room with round tables with 6-chairs with Chinese restaurant look merged with street food venders vibe! What delicious foods and hectic lively atmosphere - we will return to taste more dishes and bring loved ones! A definite recommend! What a find!

    Great ambience and service. On a food crawl with my sister hence, that's all we ordered. The fried mala fish was GBD. Literally cleaned up that plate even took home the toppings. The server even suggested how to use it.

    I could have sworn I already wrote a review for Nangma! I've been here several times and the food is always fantastic. Recommended! Service is hit or miss (sometimes slow) but in general, service is always welcoming, friendly and very accommodating to my large groups. Note: 5% discount if paying with Ca$h! Nangma serves both Himalayan/Tibetan and Szechuan cuisine! All delicious. We've tried several different dishes and here are the standouts: - Chongqing Chicken ($17): Excellent dish! Crispy and flavorful; very addictive. - Beef Shapta ($15): One of our fave dishes from Nangma; very flavorful - Mapo Tofu ($15): we asked for this to be extra spicy and it definitely hit the mark. I only wish the tofu weren't in such big chunks. - Beef Shabalak ($13/3pcs): beef patties fried golden crispy; these were so satisfying and tasty! - Steamed Beef Momos ($11/8pcs): they were out of the pork Momos, so we tried the beef Momos. Fantastic! Pillowy soft and juice Momos! - Manchurian Chicken ($13): Good but nothing too special about this dish. There are other tastier dishes to order. - Braised Fish Fillet w.Napa Cabbage ($20): this is a fave dish in any Szechuan restaurant, and Nangma's version was on point! Lots of spicy goodness here! - Spicy Fish Fillet w.Tofu ($20): another great fish dish! - Crispy Mala Fish Fillet ($25): this fish dish has no sauce; the fried fish fillets were perfectly crispy without being oily, and perfectly spicy! - Shredded Potatoes & Green Peppers ($15): surprisingly spicy! Nice surprise! Needless to say, we've been here several times and have tried many dishes. Nangma never disappoints! We look forward to many return visits!

    My friend and I had lunch here yesterday. I've wanted to try this place for a while since I've never had Tibetan food before. Inside the restaurant was a huge space with many tables. It use to be a dim sum place. The picture of the Dali Lama was displayed prominently on the wall. We were seated quickly and given menus. Many items looked Chinese since makes sense since they said they also served Szechuan style food. But we wanted to try some Tibetan cuisine. So we ordered the momos (dumplings) both fried and steamed. We also got Tsak Sha La Kor (Beef, potatoes, wood ear, bean thread, herbs in a curry sauce) which came with tingmo(white steamed bread), crispy mala fish with fried chili and peanuts, spicy tripe, and snow pea tips. First the momos were so juicy. Careful when biting because juice will squirt out. The dough was thick and chewy. I liked the fried better since it had a great crunchy texture. The Tsak Sha La Kor Hot came with the tingmo which was great for dipping in the sauce/soup. We were surprised by the bean thread and wood ear but it was very good. The beef was on the bone and parts were a little chewy. The crispy mala fish was crunchy and well seasoned with a little kick. My friend loved the chili chips and peanuts. She was stuffing the tingmo with the chili and peanut. Unconventional but tasty. The tripe was good but at this point the spice from everything was making it hard to eat. Luckily, I had a mango lassi. It really helped. The pea shoots were tender, cooked in a typical fashion but fresh and done well. I am not an expert on Tibetan food so I couldn't tell you if it was good Tibetan food but I really enjoyed it. I definitely want to come back.

    Momos

    Quiet spot with lots of different dishes. I went with the thenthuk and momos (craving momos for the longest). Service was prompt and efficient. Best part is it's close to where my friend works, so now I have a reason to visit more often. Food was filling and inexpensive. Solid spot. I'll return soon.

    It was my first time having Tibetan food, and it was quite interesting. I wasn't used to a lot of the spices, so I had trouble adjusting, but my favorite dish was the fried momos. The fried potatoes were also really good and were very spicy, but if you like peppercorn and spice, I would definitely recommend that. The service was also wonderful. The waiter was super attentive, and the food was brought to a relatively quickly. The decor of the restaurant was so cool. I loved the way they decorated the walls and all the other decorations around the restaurant. In terms of food, the noodle dishes weren't my favorite, but it was a good experience.

    Inside

    Came for Saturday lunch and there was plenty of space but more people came in later in the afternoon. The space is cool. There are rooms upstairs. Servers were friendly. The food is where I'm unsure. Grade was pending when I went, which never bothered me before in NYC. The Sichuan Dan Dan noodles and cucumbers were flavorful and delicious. We didn't like the mapo tofu. It seemed to taste sour, and the server let us get the momos instead. He had also offered to remake it if we wanted, which I appreciated. We also got the lamb chops which were fine. They also gave us a tingmo (steamed bun) by mistake and it tasted a bit off. I wasn't blown away by the flavors of anything.

    I've been trying places that I haven't been to, and this is what popped up in my head and on Yelp. It looks quite different on the inside as it's very roomy and the outside looks very plain. There are two floors and I'm not sure what is on the second floor. But the main floor has many dine-in tables and chairs. There's even a bar area, too. Regarding the food, we ordered the momos, which had chives and beef inside of it all, which comes in a set of 10. Those are steaming hot, but really good to eat. My friend and I got two different types of noodles, which are Thenthuk and the Bathuk soup with chicken as the protein. You can either get chicken or beef in it or perhaps even veggies, but they're basically the same soup except different noodles. One is hand drawn versus the other, which is Tibetan Noodle. My friend said it has similar ingredients to certain chicken soups. All in all, I would like to go back in the near future to try other dishes.

    Shabalak
    Anna L.

    Nice Tibetan restaurant with a Szechuan menu. The food here was pretty good but there were a few bumps along the way with the service which was corrected. We wanted to order some food from the Szechuan menu but none of the dishes were available unfortunately. Instead we ordered fried momos, bathuk, vegetable shabalak, chicken manchurian, and fried noodles. The food is served family style. The momos and shabalak were very good and flavorful. The bathuk was good but simple in terms of flavor. It's basically a rib and vegetable soup. I wasn't too fond of the Manchurian chicken or the noodles. They had good flavor but a bit too spicy for me. The edamame was also good but a bit spicy. Overall, I liked the appetizer type dishes better than the entrees.

    My family happened to come here by chance. Like spin the Yelp wheel to see where it lands kind of chance. First time we all agreed to try something different. We were welcomed upon entry. The place is huge. The waiters got us beverages right away and helped with food options. It helps that they have pictures of the foods on the menu. It's more of a family size orders. We ordered lo mein ( vegetarian) , double pork , veggie rice, scallion pancake and 3 orders of rice. My son loved the rice. The taste of each platter was definitely good. Honestly, no complaints but we agreed it wasn't our favorite option. Service : A+ Cleanliness : A Food : B Location : B Portions : A

    Excellent food and service. The thenthuk was hearty and had a good bite with the chunks of noodles. The momos were excellent and had a good amount of soup within. The pork ribs were mild but quite flavorful and crispy. Tingmo helped to offset the spice and sauces from the other dishes. Ambience was cozy and welcoming with a nice collection of decorative elements along the walls.

    Steamed beef momos
    Stacy L.

    Enjoyable Tibetan food with nice service in a quiet and decorative ambiance. The restaurant was also spacious, so it's good for groups! We tried both Tibetan and Sichuan food here. The Tibetan dishes included Thenthuk, sour & spicy sliced beef with enoki mushrooms), beef momos, and tingmo (twisted flour bun). The only Sichuan dish we tried was the classic braised spicy fish fillet with Napa cabbage. I thought the Tibetan dishes were all delicious and comforting, but the Sichuan dish was not as good as other Sichuanese restaurants. I enjoyed dipping the tingmo into the sour & spicy beef dish, and the momos had a nice amount of soup in them! The servers were helpful with explaining the dishes on the menu, too. Looking forward to trying the other items on the menu!

It helps that we speak the language that we got a little more comedic interaction with him! He was a hoot and was helpful in providing us advice on the # of dishes and what to get. I'd say everything is authentic to the Shanghainese cuisine so I'm a little biased that I loved every dish! A fish dish was suggested but we opted for our usual favorites: Scallion Pancake -made fresh as you can tell from the crunch Soup dumplings - super fresh, delicious inside, plenty of soup, perfect ratio of skin to meat Chow Fun - classic, look at the heaping amount of beef portioned on top!! Beef pepper steak - chunks were very tender and full of flavor Pork buns - a lovely crunch on the bottom of the bun, soft bread and tons of flavor Shrimp with broccoli - large pieces of shrimp (I didn't try it so I'm not sure on the taste)

Then the server Bill, started acting like a used car salesman. He said he would give us a sake cause it was his birthday, but didn't tell us we were going to get charged for it. Also before my brother got there, he said that since it was his birthday, he would bring out a "banana boat" which was just 5 scoops of ice cream and some cut up banana. When we got the bill he not only charged us for both, but that banana boat was $30! When we asked about it, he argued with us saying that he didn't tell us the price of every single thing that we bought... very rude. We also tried to order two orders of regular soup dumplings and two orders of the truffle. He kept rushing our order, and then tried to change our order to four orders of the truffle. We weren't sure if we would like it yet, and kept pushing back but he wouldn't take no for an answer (that being said the truffle was good, but I'm definitely a purist and preferred the regular soup dumplings). We also ordered the kau fu but it was not good, and tasted too much of five spice. The cha cha mien was fine, but a bit small and a little bland. The rice cakes were good, but the rice cakes were not al dente enough for me. We also got the fried rice, which was fine, but nothing to write home about. Finally we got a fried tofu dish which was good and had a lot of tofu in it. Overall, this server ruined our experience. The food is fine, but there are other Shanghainese restaurants in the area and would visit those over this place.

Good over rice deals, slightly lower price during their lunch hours. Tried a few, some hits and misses for us.

Big plus: they're open late until 11 pm, which is always appreciated. They have a solid list of over-rice combos, all reasonably priced around $11-$12, with generous portions. I ordered the beef with bitter melon over rice, and this alone guarantees I'll be back. It's the first time I've seen this combo offered anywhere, and it was surprisingly delicious, even with the natural bitterness of the bitter melon. My husband ordered the beef with bamboo shoots over rice, and that was tasty as well. Everything came out flavorful and satisfying. Service was another highlight -- the wait staff was quick to refill our hot tea, and the place was clean and well-kept, even though we came close to closing time. Also glad to see that they accept cards though there is a $20 minimum. We also ordered the stinky tofu. While I wasn't used to the sauce they used (it had soy sauce and capers, which was a bit different from what I'm accustomed to), it didn't take away from how yummy the tofu itself was. Overall, this was a great late-night find, and I'll definitely be coming back to try more items on their menu. Glad we finally stopped in!

I wish they made the pieces of chicken slightly larger as it was irritating to slowly pick it out towards the end of finishing it. Now, what went well were the stone pot with the fish. Normally not a huge fan of fish, so if I can enjoy eating fish a place has done well in preparing it. The soup was really flavorful and everyone at my table enjoyed it. The sweet and sour pork was also nice. The breading was crispy and the sauce had a nice tangy flavor to it and the texture was interestingly satisfying. The grilled beef ribs and bao buns were one of my favorite. The beef rib was very tender and went well with the buns and condiments that were provided.
