I found the restaurant by accident after my truck broke down on the way to a car audio show. I was hundreds of miles from home, had stupidly removed all my tools because I'd cleaned the truck out for the show, and was attempting parking-lot truck surgery with a hacksaw and JB Weld. I noticed the restaurant nearby and decided that if I was going to be stranded, I might as well try something I'd never eaten before. I told them I'd never had Nepali food and asked them to introduce me to it. I had pani puri, pork momo jhol, chicken thali, and chiya. Everything was outstanding. The pani puri was a fantastic first experience, the chicken thali gave me an assortment of flavors to explore, and the chiya was excellent. But those pork momos in jhol... I planned to take pictures. Instead, I ate everything. I somehow exercised enough self-control to save ONE momo for my brother to try later. His reaction when he ate it confirmed that I wasn't simply delirious from repairing a truck in a parking lot: it really was that freaking good. I also learned that they make their food from scratch each morning, which wasn't surprising after tasting it. Everything tasted fresh and carefully prepared. What really made the experience memorable, though, was the family. They were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and kind. It happened to be their daughter's birthday, and their family was celebrating while I was there. The kids were adorable and a lot of fun, and being around this wonderful family turned what had been a miserable day into one I now remember very differently. Eventually I got my truck patched together and continued my trip. But the best thing I discovered that weekend wasn't at the car audio show I drove 700 miles to attend. It was Nepali food in a parking lot where my truck happened to break down. Go here. Try something unfamiliar. And whatever else you order, get the momos.

We started with the chicken momos, veggie momos, and bhel, and also shared a thukpa. We had originally planned to order the mutton thali as well, but we were so full by then that we decided to save it for another visit.The owner and staff were incredibly personable and took the time to chat with us about the restaurant and the dishes, which made the experience feel warm and welcoming.The food overall was fresh and flavorful. The gravy with the chicken momos was especially delicious. I personally didn't enjoy the veggie dumplings very much, and the thukpa felt just okay to me. Still, our friends spoke very highly of several other dishes, so I do think this is a place worth revisiting. I'm hoping to come back and end up just as enamored with it as many of the other reviewers seem to be.

I had walked by this spot a few times but had not run in for a bite until my friend said he loved getting momo here! And of course, we couldn't pass up on getting some chai either. He had dropped by a few times and had chatted with the owners as well so I let him order to his hearts content and just stayed around for the culinary ride. We got the dhal bhat, lentil soup, and veggie momo to share and he grabbed some chicken momo to go. All of the food tasty wholesome, hearty, and made with care. Definitely worth the price and effort. The chai was also boiling hot and perfectly sweet without being too much. Fyi they also have soy and oat chai if you prefer to have something non-dairy! All in all this is a cute spot, may be a biiit less ideal on rainy or really cold days, but hey the chai can help you warm up! Parking in the area is street parking and can be difficult during peak hours, but otherwise not too bad. Prices are fair for the quality so get out there and support a local business!

The accompanying sauce was interesting--kind of curry-adjacent but not quite--which worked well with the dumplings.

I've always loved momo, just haven't had it from this particular cart and the last several times I tried a new food cart, it didn't go very well.. But the staff are super nice so I want to support their business if possible. Just a heads up if you have a sensitive stomach or are sensitive to fat content - if you get their chai tea with coconut milk, they don't use the kind meant for drinking like you get from a cafe (the kind of coconut milk in a carton). They use canned coconut milk, like you use for cooking, curries, etc., This does make for a creamier and more coconutty drink, but it overwhelmed the chai flavour and gave me a stomach ache most likely due to the high fat content. I'm just not used to drinking 24g fat in one sitting (believe me if I could, I would!). If I'd known they were using canned coconut milk for the dairy alternative, I don't think I would have ordered it. I'm sure the regular chai tea with dairy milk is delicious though, as what I could get out of the spice flavour seemed tasty. I'll update my review next time.
