    Beef momos
    Vicki W.

    Fantastic food and very reasonable prices! We stopped by for lunch and ordered the lunch special which is three dishes + rice for $12. We picked the chick pea curry, mixed vegetables and chicken curry; all of our selections were solid and large portions. However the real standout was the beef momos that we ordered! They had a perfect, tender exterior with juicy, tender, and flavorful meat inside. We also got a free chai, which was solid as well. A few things to be aware of before you visit - the momos are made to order, so they take around 20 minutes to prepare. The space is very minimalist and small, with only a few tables. A small back room is set up with awkwardly close tables and a bathroom door, not an ideal place to enjoy a meal. Carry out might be a better option during peak hours. Recommend a visit and make sure to order the momos!

    White Rice and steamed bun
    Karolina K.

    We stopped there why passing through Boulder as they were one of the few inexpensive places that had vegan options and I never had Tibetan food so was looking forward for my dinner. We arrived and it was already dark outside but we still decided to eat on the patio as the chairs inside were put up as they would be closing and it was very cold with the AC. I wish they had more lights outside as we had to eat almost in full dark... Staff was very friendly and they recommended few dishes. I had the Tsel Shamu with sautéed mushroom and zucchini with rice and had to try their steamed dumpling (tingmo). The curry was ok, it tasted very similar to a Polish dish called leczo so I was a little disappointed as I really was expecting some new, exciting flavors. The stemmed bun was very good. My husband got the beef curry - Shaptak with rice and he said it also had a similar flavor to Polish dish but at least it was spicy. Beef was a little tough. We also split vegetable Momos and they were good but far too much garlic was inside. The only flavor you could taste was garlic. I love garlic but this was a little too much. The dipping sauce was good. I read other reviews that the noodles are very good so maybe we just ordered wrong items... The portion size was very big, we ate half and took the rest for next day.

    Jhasa Sha Mo-Mo - Chicken Momo

    I just moved to Boulder and this restaurant is so far my favorite one. Food is authentic and extraordinary delicious. The ambience of this place always feels welcoming, and staff is nice. This place is really worth it, prices are perfect and you get amazing food. I'm happy they have this place in Boulder.

    Everyone who works here is so kind, the portions are very generous and the food is delicious. The picture I've added here is after I'd been eating (slowly) for 10 minutes! The chai is delicious and complimentary with the lunch special. Love love love Tibet kitchen

    Momo sampler

    Come for the momos and chai! This was one of my fave spots to go to while I was a grad student in Boulder. Their momos are made to order so call ahead or expect to wait a bit longer for them--it's worth it! I usually get the momo sampler so I can have some of each flavor (chicken, beef, vegetarian). I think the beef is my favorite, but they're all tasty, super filling, and great to share! I love the spicy chutney that it comes with. I've gotten the lunch special once or twice (you can pick from a variety of ready-made dishes) and it's a great deal. The momos alone are worth the trip though, and the complimentary chai is delicious. I loved coming here for some post-hike momos and chai on their outdoor patio--a moment of tranquility before returning to the hustle and bustle of student life. I miss this place!

    Jhasa Shamdeh Chicken Curry
    Melanie C.

    First time trying Tibetan food and loved it! This little hole in a wall serves up killer dinner deals ($9) of delicious dishes like chicken curry and thentuk. Their momos are amazing and would be happy to come just for these! They also serve you complimentary hot chai while you are waiting. Service is self service/counter, takes about 15-20 min for food to come out and there is a couple indoor tables and a patio for dining. Would recommend for a delicious and cheap lunch/dinner!

    This is the dinner special with Chicken Curry (main) and Garbanzo Beans (side)
    Victoria K.

    Tibet Kitchen is definitely a hole in the wall type of place. It's right off of Arapahoe and Folsom, and its really easy to miss! Be careful :) I have been here multiple times now and I'm still sitting at this same rating, because every single time I am here, it's the same. The Food: Dinner Special: it is an extremely great price for the amount of food you get (picture below) I got the chicken curry and garbanzo beans on side. The chicken curry is delicious, but could've used more spice. It tastes a bit watered down (this happened twice out of the 7 times I have ordered this) The garbanzo beans are DELICIOUS! Who knew this side would be so flavorful! It was a great addition. The rice is a bit dry, so definitely need to eat with something, not by itself. The best thing here are MOMO's! We have tried all three momos, and the best yet is the beef momo's. I suggest getting the momo sampler first to try all of them. Veggies are great momo's too! and the chicken can be a bit mushy. *They have a notice on the menu that the momo's are made to order and take 15 mins (this is a LIE). It takes about 20-30 mins depending on how busy, I once waited 37 mins (I counted because I was starving) The momo order comes in 8 and it may not seem like a meal or a lot of food, but it IS! So it is very filling and delicious. I have also tried the curry potato side and it was bland, not the greatest. It literally taste like watered spiced potatoes. Overall my rating for this place is lower because of the long wait time, and it is truly never busy. They take a while, but the food is cheap and delicious. Definitely a nice little place for to-go, not much of a dining room.

I couldn't find the happy hour times anywhere online, but they are 3-6 and 8-close every day.

The difficulties with are in my previous reviews. Now much of the facility has been torn down and the ongoing construction of the space to be city staff offices and the bigger space to be affordable housing had become impractical to use or eat at the restaurant. The noise was deafening. In January they moved to a food court on the Hill. This is a lower level of a building with other tenants. There are about 6 food kitchens and each time I have been here this summer and fall, this is the busiest at lunch. Since the seating is communal there is always space and it is clean. The staff here have been really nice. If I'm preparing a meal at home or supplementing leftovers, I have stopped by to get a fave vegetable, baby bok choy, steamed and seasoned and at an affordable side dish price. Today my husband and I walked down for lunch and ordered the Tuesday special street crepes some of the owners have continued from the long gone first owners from Beijing. As with other succeeding owners, they too have continued to use lettuce rather than the bok choy in the crepe. It also has some ham, scallions and crispy wonton bits and a nice spread of hoisin. It is topped with a sprinkle of black sesame seeds that I love. Another difference from the original is that the ingredients of the crepe itself are not well mixed together so many large patches of separate egg white and yolk makes it harder to hold together and not as pretty. But it tastes just fine but original years ago was addicting. I will continue to come here try more of the food from the current owner. I love beef noodles and have 2 other places I can get a good version but this is the most walkable for me. They do very nice prep for takeout which is good too. At lunch it is busy with CU affiliated students, staff and faculty alike. Every item I have had at Flower Pepper is hand made and prepared for the customer.

First impressions coming in, fairly busy, but the waitress was able to guide us to a table. Table was a bit dirty, but the waitress eventually came to clean it up.

Has the classic umami soy garlic sauce and wasn't hard or tough like I've had in other places in Denver. The Chongqing Chicken was also tasty with a good crunch and spice. I think the only thing with the chicken was the pieces were fairly small and there was too much starch around each piece. Otherwise, solid dish. It's overall a great family-run restaurant. The waitress had a kid there too, and it reminded me of home in a way. Would come back again to try their other dishes, and definitely would get the eggplant again.
