    My dish
    Jjc M.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    Ken W.

    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.

    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

    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!

Good over rice deals, slightly lower price during their lunch hours. Tried a few, some hits and misses for us. Some picks which we liked are pork with bamboo shoots, beef with bittermelon, fried fish fillets, salty fish and chicken fried rice. Pork with scallion chilli was good, at less spicy level for me. Beef chow fun was ok. Three cup chicken wasn't for me, plain with slightly gingery flavor, need to have basil with each bite, small bone pieces (be careful); and Beef stew meat wasn't tender, tough and chewy. Have been here for larger family get togethers and enjoyed the food then as well.

    This was one of the worst dining experiences I've ever had…read more We ordered a whole fish, but the portion we received was unbelievably small--only about one-third the size of the fish served to other tables. When we politely asked the server about it, instead of explaining the difference, they responded with an extremely rude attitude, saying, "Take it or leave it," and even told us, "If you think it's too small, go buy one from the supermarket yourself." The service only got worse when it came time to pay. Because they were unhappy with the tip, the server said, "If you don't have money, don't come back next time," "You're so young but have such a bad attitude," and even told us to "Get out." We also ordered the pork intestine and blood stew, but it was almost entirely pickled vegetables. There were barely any pork intestines or blood in the dish, which was very disappointing. No customer deserves to be treated with this level of disrespect. It's one thing if the food doesn't meet expectations, but insulting customers and telling them not to come back because they "can't afford it" is completely unacceptable. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone.

Starting off, the numbing szechuan chicken was my least favorite of the dishes - the pieces of chicken were really tiny and there were a lot of peppercorns. 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.

I've dined here with my family twice and in the most recent occasion, we came with no reservations around 2:30pm on a Sunday. All the tables were taken as they just opened at noon so we had to wait a bit. Their menu / iPad ordering system was simple to navigate and quick to place. Our table was started off with their spicy pickled cabbage, which was super addicting. I love how the spicy oil was so flavorful and the cabbage was soft and just slightly tangy. We ordered 5 dishes for our party of 5: the la-zi chicken, stir fried cabbage, grilled beef ribs, beef and mushroom bibimbap and mao xue wang. My favorites were the la-zi chicken as the diced chicken was super crispy and flavorful. The spice level and numbingness was just the right amount. Next comes the beef and mushroom bibimbap, which is mixed and served at the table. The flavors were more soy based and was very balanced. The stir fried cabbage was cooked well but the pork in the dish was extremely salty. The grilled beef ribs came with steamed baos, similar to peking duck. I enjoyed the experience and presentation but the dish was a bit boring. Toppings included a spicy hot sauce, cucumbers and scallions along with the sliced beef that was individually torched at the table. Lastly the mao xue wang is a traditional stew featuring offals and blood curds. This one had duck blood, tripe, and intestines. I was extremely disappointed by this dish as I was expecting some tofu and small pork intestines but it didn't have either. The tripe and intestines were very crunchy, wherwas the duck blood was silky and soft. The flavor was very basic mala stew and had a ton of red chili peppers. Overall I had a decent meal at Mountain house but can't help but wonder if I ordered the right things since not everything was as good as I hoped. I will mostly likely return to give their other menu items a try.
