Pretty inferior with an amazing scent. The lamb curry was incredible, with a taste of the spice that intrigue my tongue. Both pork and chicken dumpling were amazing! If you love Indiana food, you would love this one!

Enjoyed Nepali food especially momos. I like the chef who is friendly. Their service is fine and I enjoy the ambiance here. Also this restaurant is in Adams Morgan around a lot of bars which is a bonus. Good place to be around.

Enjoyed a small petit goût at this restaurant, had the plant-based momo (dumplings) with a Nepalese dipping sauce and a bowl of jhol soup. Spicy yes, but absolutely delicious! Great prices and deco.
