    Shrimp curry & garlic naan
    Laura E.

    Very happy to have found a delicious Indian/Tibetan restaurants a few blocks from home. I almost left because I didn't see anyone working at the front and only 2 other people were sitting outside. I'm SO glad I didn't! I ordered the shrimp curry (mild) and garlic naan. Curry had a kick without being overly spicy. It soaked up the side of basmati rice very well. Garlic naan was soft and did not dry out easily when I had leftovers yesterday night. The server (owner?) was super friendly and welcoming! Prices were reasonable and I didn't have to wait long for my food. I recently moved to Hopkins and look forward to being a regular!

    We have had better Momo and Tibetan noodle soup. The momo wrap was very thick and the dipping sauce was basic.

    Tibet Corner is phenomenal! I've had the Butter Chicken, Tikka Masala, Momos, Garlic Naan, Vindaloo + Tibetan Chow Mein. I love that they adjust to your preferred spice levels too, if you want spicy they'll give you spicy. The service here is also unmatched. The owner and everyone that works there is so attentive and kind. It's the perfect cozy place for the best cozy food. I've become a regular here and plan to continue to visit!

    Butter Chicken
    Steve S.

    Almost four stars. The food is tasty and menu offers a nice range of vegetarian and meat entrees. However, services was slow and it felt like they may be understaffed. Perhaps a result of the labor shortage so many service and retail establishments are facing. That being said, this spit brings a welcome bit of culture of the downtown Hopkins area and is definitely worth checking out.

    The owner is an absolute LEGEND, and the food is top notch! This was on our Hopkins bucket list since moving here, and it didn't disappoint. The owner is mainly doing takeout only right now, and since he was missing a staff member that night hadn't planned to provide dine in service. But he welcomed us in and gave great service! The CHAI. All I'm gonna say, is you have to taste it to believe it. Dreams really do come true. My partner wouldn't stop stealing sips! I got the butter chicken and it was flavorful and creamy- spot on. My partner got an absolute mountain of lamb biryani and he loved the flavors and sauce. The owner chatted with us when he was free and is a total gem. He had us laughing constantly! While we were there, several folks came in for takeout and one even paid for the next strangers' tab! You can tell this is a local favorite.  We'll be back!

    I can't believe I've lived 5 minutes from here for the last 7 years and am only now just finding Tibet Corner! I came here last night with my spouse and mother in law. We chose to sit on the patio, which was super spacious and completely covered, so even on a hot day felt nice since we were shaded from the sun. The menu is pretty expansive, so it was a little tough to decide. We ended up ordering the edamame, samosas, and chicken lollipops to start. Hands down the chicken lollipops were the best appetizer. We also ordered beef momos, lamb curry, and beef shap-ta. All were amazing, and with some naan delicious to dip into the extra sauce. The manager was incredibly friendly and helped point us toward a variety of dishes that were super satisfying. We had more than enough food, and finished our meal with enough left overs for today's lunch!

    Tibetan Beef Shap-Ta
    Steven D.

    Spoiler alert...it's on the corner! :-) We thoroughly enjoyed all dishes ordered and the owners were very kind and service oriented. The ambiance definitely needs a designers touch however! Samosa starter was fantastic as was the butter chicken and chicken tandoor. I had the Tibetan Beef Shap-Ta which was packed with flavor and the medium spice was just enough for me to tolerate as a spice wimp. Loved the garlic naan. It was quiet on a Monday, but take out was active. Definitely a good option, hope they spend a couple of bucks improving the dining decor.

    Dal ($11), made vegan. Great texture, but overly salty.

    Tibet Corner, located in downtown Hopkins, offers Tibetan and North Indian food. It's not bad, but not great. If you want better Tibetan food, go to Tibet Kitchen on Nicollet in Minneapolis. The menu labels its vegan/veganizable dishes, which is enormously helpful. The vegetable samosa ($6) is vegan and pretty good. The handmade noodle soup (then-thuk) ($11) is vegan by default, but I didn't love it. The noodles are nice, but the soup had a dour savory flavor that failed to impress. The veg potato bean (alo phing) ($11) is vegan by default and an unremarkable potato/pea curry with glass noodles. The dal ($11) can be made vegan. I loved the texture of the lentils and the thickness of the base, but the flavor didn't pop. It was also too salty. Unfortunately Tibet Corner doesn't offer any vegan breads (it only has naan, which is made with yogurt). I'd definitely come back to Tibet Corner, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it.

    Garlic Naan

    Everything was SOOOOOOOO good! I'm vegetarian and there were may options. Great ambiance and food. Will definitely be coming here again!

    Butter chicken, lamb vindaloo, garlic naan, mango lassi! Everything was amazing!
    Mariam R.

    We ordered food to be delivered because we were craving Indian food and there aren't many Indian restaurants that delivered close to us. This place is definitely a hidden gem! I have driven by this restaurant many times but have never tried it. It's a humble looking restaurant from it's exterior but don't let that deter you. The Indian food here is more authentic than I have tried at traditional "Indian" restaurants. The more popular ones tend to have a ton of heavy cream as the curry base which isn't traditional in most Indian dishes. The curries are also milder. That is not the case at this restaurant. Their curries are packed with flavor and they aren't bland either. And not too spicy at the same time! I loved it! I tried their mango lassi, lamb vindaloo and butter chicken with garlic naan. Everything was top notch. The vindaloo and butter chicken wasn't as creamy as most Indian restaurants but again - it was more authentic. It tasted amazing! Make sure to check this place out if you want to taste more traditional flavors.

It was not, it was an assortment of dishes which were all tasty. There was rice, naan, a chicken dish, a lamb/beef dish, a veggie dish, a crunchy bread, and a piece of galub jamun for dessert. The lamb was probably was favorite and was gone very quickly. The chicken was a close second and had a ton of flavor which the naan soaked up nicely. The galub jamun was a pleasant surprise as well. I got an order to go, it was syrupy and a perfect sweet treat to end a savory meal. I would go back! P.s. I ordered mild and the nice waitress politely insisted on medium.

We easily found parking right outside. It's a calm and casual atmosphere that is great for families, small groups, and solo diners. Love learning? You'll be slightly transfixed by their TV, which had fascinating programming about food from around the world. There to catch up and enjoy the company? It's easy to do--the volume in the restaurant is moderate. Our server, Siva, had wonderful suggestions for us. The menu is awesome and features a wide range of options, from street food to regional specialties. If you're not sure what something is or whether it would be up your alley, ask: they'll have your back. There are ample options for vegetarians, vegans, and omnivores, and there is tons of flexibility on spice level. Everything is cooked to order. We started with the vegetarian momo, which came with two sauces--one spicy and the other not. Both were delicious and complex. (The spicy one was indeed spicy, which was really delightful--I love it when I find a true "spicy"; it's not always easy in the Midwest!) For my main, I ordered the malai kofta, which is one of my favorites. It's a comforting dish that is highly seasoned and has loads of depth. It's rich, savory, salty, and a bit sweet--basically a hug on a plate. I ordered it medium, but next time will probably go with hot. We also had the bullet naan (with green chilis), which was a real treat. This restaurant has more than the average number of naan options, and they all looked great. We definitely chose wisely--this unique naan was truly delicious and was perfect for scooping up the sauces. (Highly recommended.) I also had a mango lassi. It was definitely a winner: creamy, sweet, and tart, it was just what I needed for balance. If you like Indian and Himalayan, Thaliwala will be right up your alley. It's definitely worth the trip, even if it's not in your neck of the woods.

Restaurant is clean, service is great, plenty of parking since it's in a strip mall. I think they do a lot of take out orders. We went for lunch and ordered a dish (chicken tikka masala) from the $15 lunch special. They also have lunch specials of 2 curry or 3 curry options. But our favorite of lamb vindaloo wasn't a lunch option so we ordered that separately along with tandoori chicken. The tandoori chicken came with a chutney rack (dipping sauces) and the vindaloo came with a side of naan. Normally naan is ordered separately and doesn't come free with dishes, only certain ones. Everything was delicious. The tandoori chicken came sizzling hot and was tender and juicy. Both curries (ordered at medium spice) were so flavorful! Good amount of protein in each. We also ordered the pickle accompaniment and that was a miss for us. It's not our taste. Highly recommend this place .

Most of the food they served looked gorgeous, to the point that some may think they were overshadowing the flavor. But I can confidently say that in terms of flavor, many of the dishes were extremely on point as well. Items like the blackened chicken, the tomato dal, the butter chicken, and the palak paneer were very flavorful. The blackened chicken was juicy and tender, too, on top of containing abundant flavor. The samosas contained an abundant amount of potatoes and peas. I could taste a good amount of tomatoes and coconut milk in the butter chicken, which was very creamy. I could also taste very strong garam masala in the palak paneer, which was a great thing. The butter naan was an excellent addition because the flavorful curry definitely needed more than rice to evoke its full potential, and naan bread was perfect for such. In terms of dessert, the mango mousse was incredible! Its soft but solid texture made it very easy to break up and consume, while maintaining its shape without collapsing. The saffron, milk powder, and cream altogether offered a very integral taste that had lots of depth. I honestly want to try all the desserts on their menu, too, like the coconut pannacotta and the basundi pistachio tiramisu, because they both looked amazing on the menu. While this establishment is not one of those places you visit that often, it is perfect for a date night because it has clean and relatively fancy decor along with flavorful food and can evoke a romantic vibe. I will for sure return here in the future and highly recommend it for those looking for quality Indian restaurants!
