My table ordered many of the dumpling based dishes and all were innovative, colorful, and super tasty. I went rogue with the chicken vindaloo, and it was one of the most exciting and satisfying things that I’ve eaten in a long while. Nepalese style vindaloo has a thicker, richer, and less sour sauce than most parts of India, and the spicing was outstanding and subtle yet packed plenty of heat. Looks great on the plate, too. Serving size here is huge, and the value is exceptional.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

AMAZING RESTAURANT AND SERVICE! Very close to UNC. I go there every other day. The food is amazing, the service is amazing. And must try their masala tea! The staff is really good too and Sanskriti is very warm and wonderful!

The food is excellent and unique here, almost like a fusion between Chinese and Indian cuisine. The portions are reasonable and everything well-seasoned. The price does feel high for what is essentially dumplings, especially considering that you have to pay extra for any meat filling, making a standard tray of 8 dumplings cost about ~13 dollars. Also, the Sizzler MoMo’s is supposed to have asparagus, but as you can see, the dish only had a single, undercooked asparagus for looks more than for flavor. Nonetheless, the noodles were excellent. I would come back again from time to time, but it’s too expensive to be a regular stop.
