Very disappointed. Went here tonight. Sat for maybe 10 minutes before getting the menus. Then we got waters after another minute. (By the way, they did not have air conditioning inside and it was quite warm.) Then we waited again for another 10 minutes with no service. I understand that maybe the back patio was really busy, but inside, there were only 2 other tables. Then we watch a large table of maybe 11 that arrived maybe 15 mins after us received their menus AND got to order their food. We waited another 5 minutes of still no service and then decided to leave. This was also right after seeing another two ladies leave as well without getting any service too. We won't be back. We ended up going to Norling down the street where we got seated, and received our food within 20 minutes! So My Tip: Head to Norling! *** Update - Note that the owner was very attentive to my post. He not only reached out to apologize about our experience but offered for us to return on the house. read more

On the edge of Parkdale sits this cute little restaurant. I came here based on all the reviews on yelp - and was not disappointed. This place gets 5 stars because the service is outstanding. I had originally called in the morning to inquire about whether their restaurant was baby friendly. They were very accommodating, but I did not yet make reservations as I wanted to discuss w my group of friends first. Then at 3pm when I finally decided to make a reservation, I called and they were closed for their siesta hour (3-5pm) - did not leave a voicemail. So I figured I'd call back at 5pm. To my surprise, at 455pm, Garab - the owner calls me back. He was very courteous in returning my phone call. When my party and I arrived. Garab was very warm and welcoming. His gestures were very genuine. It did not seem scripted or pretentious. He made us feel very comfortable and cozy. He's the cutest lil man. He knew that I was there for my birthday so he kindly offered a free drink on the house and encouraged me to get a pint on tap. We were a group of 10. And we literally ordered two of everything. We ordered: + Tibet Kitchen starter platter - you get a chicken spring roll, veg spring roll, teriyaki beef stick, and tibetan beef sausage - not bad + steamed beef momos (dumplings) + pan fried beef momos - I think they momo's are made fresh bc I could see from my seat the lady in the back rolling the dumpling dough and stuffing it - comfort food, tastes homemade and fresh + steam buns - we originally thought they were like a Vietnamese banh bao which is stuffed w meat and veggies inside.. But this was literally just super soft, fresh, steam buns served w butter. At first we were disappointed bc we thought there would be more to it.. But if was unbelievably fresh, soft, moist... And tasted exceptionally good w some butter on it + chili chicken - kinda like a kung pao chicken but less saucy... Be careful of the chilis...very hot if you mistakenly eat one thinking it is green peppers + spicy shrimp was definitely my favourite... Perfect amount of sweet and spicy sauciness to it... Could lick the sauce off the plate it was that good + Tibet special fried rice - it was fried rice w basmati rice + Tibet chow Mein - also made slightly different than the usual Chinese chow Mein Overall, my impression was this was all made from scratch, with love, and is influenced by Indian and Chinese flavours without being overly spicy, salty, and fried. For a Thursday, Garab was steadily busy serving all the tables. There seems to be lots of regulars who eat there as well as lots of take out orders. I would definitely recommend coming here with your friends and family. Quiet ambiance, simple decor. Good karma all around. Thanks Garab for a wonderful experience with tibetan food! read more

This restaurant is my favourite in Parkdale! It is family owned and operated, the servers and staff are all exceptional. I highly suggest the Chicken Hot and Sour Soup, perfect on a cold day, beef steamed dumplings are delicious, actually, every thing I have tried has been perfect, and super affordable!! Wish I could eat here every day! read more

I followed the suggestion on Yelp to find the courage to step into a Tibetan restaurant by myself and try Tibetan food for the first time. The waiter was very friendly. I tried the lunch special for the chilli chicken and really wanted to get the dumpling that came with it (but they were sold out unfortunately). The hot and sour soup I thoroughly enjoyed as well as the chilli chicken on rice. The veg spring roll was "meh" as I am not a fan. I would love to try the dumpling next time. Another visit perhaps. read more

This is one of the few restaurants in the neighbourhood that really stands out. My friends and I got the chili momo balls, soup noodles, shangrila noodles, and their signature chicken. With spring rolls as appetizers and it all came to $10 per person!!! Talk about affordable! The chilli momo balls are delicious and it's a definite must have when you're here! Bonus: Service is friendly and always refills water without being asked and their washroom is super clean and nice. read more

Last Sunday, I went down to Tibet Kitchen, a place I have only been once before when I first started trying different Tibetan places down in Parkdale. I must admit that other than the outside that I have passed by many times, nothing about the restaurant seemed familiar. It seemed rather plain inside, although there were pictures and paintings on the walls, and very low-energy (except for my server who was fine). But everything was very clean and organized, so I don't want to deter anyone from visiting. Perhaps it has changed inside or perhaps I just don't remember my previous visit properly. I did recall meeting by chance someone I used to work with, and I also recall enjoying the food, which is the most important thing. As for my meal, I had the Shaptak beef, which is small pieces of beef spiced with ginger and scallions with a bowl of rice, and Ting Mo steamed buns. The beef was very good, spicy but not too much; the scallions in particular had nice flavour. This was the first time I have had steamed buns instead of momos, and they were larger than I expected, but still soft and warm enough to absorb some of the Shaptak sauce. The only downside of the meal was that they were out of butter tea by the time I was finished eating. Overall, a very good and filling meal for only $20, and certainly another good option for Tibetan food in the area. read more

Had pork chili which comes with a rice. I loved the food. It is spicy and amazing and matched my expectation..... It just cost me $9 and i was full!!!!! I will recommend this place for someone who can handle the heat.... I am going back for more. read more

I am visiting Toronto from NYC and my first stop was Tibet Kitchen. Heard that it is one of the most famous Tibetan Restaurant in the town. I had the Gyuma which was really good. The chicken pakora was even better. Momo's was delicious. As heard the food was really good. The owner was the one serving food and he was very good. My experience in Tibet Kitchen was really good. read more

Love this place! Looking for best momos in Toronto, this is the place! - steamed, pan-fried, all of them are yummilicious, same like the ones you get in India!!! I have been here several times, and every time the owner - Garab L. recieves us with much warmth and amazing hospitality. Food and service is amazing! It is a small family run business, and is a such a lovely, cosy place with great food. Service is exceptional! My boyfriend and I travel from North York to this place to dine here often. Their masala chai is amazing as well. They have good vegeterian (I am vegeterian) as well as non-veg options!! Highly recommend this place for Tibetan food, including hakka noodles and MOMOS!!! :-) read more

Another great Tibetan meal at Queen St. W. We actually had an aim to eat at Himalayan Kitchen that Saturday night, but they were randomly shut. Tibet Kitchen was just a few steps away and looked pretty busy, so we thought this was a sign for us to try another new restaurant of the same cuisine. By far the most friendliest service compared to Shangrila and Himalayan Kitchen. The only reason I did not give this place a 5 stars was because they do not serve thali for dinner. So we started off with veg momo's, which were delicious, but I still say Shangrila make the best momo's. For mains I got the large dhal with rice and my friend got the tofu and broccoli curry with tingmo. Surprisingly, the tofu wasn't deep fried, which is a good thing. However, the portion size was pretty tiny. My dhal arrived, which for a large, wasn't that "large". Also the dhal was made using a different lentil compared to the dhal from the other aforementioned restaurants, where they used the yellow lentils rather than the black ones. It was really flavourful though, and with the rice, it was really comforting for a cold night. Overall, the food tasted great and the restaurant itself was well decorated with some effort put into it (such as the addition of a large Dalai Lama painting). The portion sizes need to be enhanced and they should consider serving thali for dinner instead of only lunch. But, nevertheless, Tibet Kitchen did not let me down. read more

Brilliant Tibetan and Indian food especially the chilli beef. The Delhi momos are spicy yet so flavourful

Great food, great service, great patio! The server is always welcoming and friendly. The restaurant may seem small but they have a nice patio in the back. Go for the momos! Amdo Momos (deep fried) and Lhasa Momo (steamed) beef or vegetable. I'm drooling thinking about that chili sauce... read more

This was our first experience with Tibet food for my family, but we all loved it. Only their special tea didn't please everyone at the table, but the meal itself was amazing. We tried several dishes. Also, the owner is very personable and humorous. Want to return. I have no connection and am not related to the establishment. read more

Best Hakka Chinese in Toronto hands down. Specially if you're from India. It reminds you of restaurants back home. Not very upscale but very homely. The owners and servers are very welcoming. I work as a cook in a restaurant and I really would recommend this to anyone I know. Love this place. Even better in the summers when they open their small and cozy patio. Check it out !! read more

The food here is alright - it's good but nothing to rave about. The waiters and the owner were very nice though and they have an outdoor patio which is really cute! We ordered the chicken pakora, lang sha tang (beef broth), beef and chicken delhi momo (dumplings on a sizzling plate), Chili chicken, and tibet special chow mien. All the dishes were 3/5 and is good for the price you pay. Come here for decent food but don't expect anything too out of the ordinary! read more

Really delicious, authentic comfort food. Their prices are reasonable and the food is delivered to your table - hot & fast! The patio is a delight in the summer time. Their Momo's are among the best in the city! If you're a fan of spicy food, you'll love their offerings. Try the Chilli Beef or their House Special Fried Rice! Their staff is informative and very friendly. Definitely worth trying! read more

Came all the way to downtown to try the place. Worth the trip :) Owner and staff are super nice, more like a family kitchen, we saw lots Tibet people having lunch here too. Food are great! especially the milktea, the first time have home taste since I came to torono. Will come back again for sure! :D read more

The owner makes the place! Vibrant spot with people coming and going. The chowmein was really good and somehow managed to not be greasy. Worth a visit. Top 15 dumplings in Toronto. We had C-Momo though maybe I'll try different ones next time they pack some heat but (as a veggie eater) they need a little something else in them. Still it's people that bring you back and the genius smile that comes with you meal is next to nothing. read more

I've never had Tibetan food before this experience so I don't have much to compare it with! But we got take out, and it was still delicious - huge huge huge telltale. I was extremely intrigued by the dumplings. Everything had lots of flavour and the sauces were all nice compliments to the food itself. read more

The owner is the most adorable little man ever. Gave us recommendations and everything tasted amazing. We ordered the app: beef sausage, beef steamed dumplings and chilli pork. The beef sausage was spicy, be careful with the pepper! The owner saw my struggles with water and brought over this mango yogurt drink to help soothe the heat. Honestly the best service ever! It is a different taste than what you're use to so go in with an open mind. The chilli pork was our favourite! Would go back again! read more

Lovely place! Love the owner.. He chatted with us a long time, we found common ground in Mussoorie, a gorgeous hill station in India that we frequent when we are in India, and was his home town for many years! We sat out out in the lovely leafy patio at the back. They've kept the decor simple but very clean and nice, with some lovely pictures of a yak, and Himalayan Tibetan women etc. We ordered 2 plates of momos, one steamed and one fried, and chowmein. It was delicious and freshly made, but so much food we had to have the leftovers bagged to take home, no way I was going to waste a morsel of that delicious stuff!! My idea of a great eating experience is good and filling food, a comfortable and warm ambience from the place and the people, and I tell ya I got it all at Tibet kitchen!! read more

Amazing and so very authentic! The owners super nice as well. Momo's are out of this world.

Was planning a dinner for few friends in May 2016, so decided to take here as this place had great reviews and a patio. Since then I have been to this place sooo many times, I don't even remember the count. The owner of this place is super nice and welcoming. He will make you feel very comfortable and offer you free beverages like tea :) Aww he is so cute. He knows the art of making your customers to come back to you again and again. I have tried a lot of things from their menu and I love all the dishes but my favorite by far is their chilli chicken and chicken chowmein. I have tried their Hot and Sour soup, Steamed chicken and beef momos, Tibetan style beef patty, Steamed buns, Chilli chicken with gravy on the side, chicken chowmein, fried rice etc. I am telling you guys this is the best tibetan restaurant you can ever find in Canada so do yourself a favour and visit this place once and I am sure you will become a fan ;) read more

First time eating Tibetan food and it did not disappoint. Great food, very good service and reasonable prices. The owner was very friendly and worked his tail off. I think the A/C was out but sitting outside wasn't bad. The back area could use a bit of freshening up. The restaurant was busy which is always a good sign. read more

Such an amazing place. Best for someone who's looking for Indian style momos. We tried Delhi Momos they are steamed dumplings that come with a sauce over it. They tasted super amazing. We also had veg manchurian which tasted equally delicious. Highly recommend this place, especially to Indians craving Indian food. read more

We went here for a late afternoon lunch and had a great meal. The restaurant is small but comfortable. There are even nice Tibet-themed photographs and paintings on the wall. Our server wasn't too cheery, but we got there shortly before closing, so she might've been justifiably upset at that. Regardless, the the service was fast, and the food was all amazing. The gyuma (blood sausage), the kothey momo (pan-fried dumplings), and the chili chicken (get it dry, not with gravy) were all delicious. The veggie manchurian (saucy vegetable balls) was ok, but I'd recommend a sautéed vegetable dish instead. Beyond simply tasting great, all of the dishes were attractively plated, which made the experience all the more enjoyable. We split everything among the three of us, which was a fun way to sample multiple different dishes. Overall, we had an excellent time, and I'd definitely be happy to return. read more

Best Tibetan food in the city! Be sure to order some momos ( I prefer steamed) when you come. The chili chicken in gravy is delicious with a good crunch to it. Big portions and very affordable. Regarding interior, it's not a very large set up. read more

The owner is so pleasant and friendly! Enjoyed talking to him. Nice restaurant overall. Has various pictures and paintings from Tibet. Manchuria was so so, not that spicy. The momos are nice and I would recommend. The chow mein was delicious and also would recommend. Enjoyed our meal. read more

I'm giving Tibet Kitchen 5-stars because the food that I ate was as good as it gets. The only downside is that this establishment is not as vegan friendly as others so make sure you inquire about the foods before ordering. The service and staff were super helpful, friendly and incredible though and our meals were everything and more than we hoped. Tibet Kitchen lives up to the hype and I would be devastated to see it go. If you haven't made the trek don't pass up the opportunity to eat some of the best Tibetan food this city has to offer. read more
