Food was very good. Some dishes were a little strange tasting but wasn’t bad. Saffron chicken kabob was by far the best dish we had. The butter chicken was a tad bit too sweet and the lamb rack was a still too chewy but over all the food was good. Restaurant was clean and had a nice atmosphere. Food took around 1 hour and 15 minutes from ordering to serving at the table. It was a bit long of a wait but the day my party was there, the restaurant also had a really large table of 15 people in the middle so the longer wait was expected. Over all a good experience and would recommend trying!

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.

I loved this restaurant. The food was delicious. We ordered a lamb curry, goat curry, wild boar momos, and a sampler. The curry was savory without being too greasy, and the momos were moist and filled with stuffing. We also got cups of lentil soup, which were delicious and perfect because of the cold weather. Staff were also super friendly and even kept a cake in the fridge for us while we ate, and then they even provided plates and utensils for our cake afterwards. Parking was pretty easy to find as well.

Exceptional! Must visit! Never disappoints! I’ve been here countless of times with different groups: food is authentic, and I always forget to click pictures of food, it’s super tasty, some are posted here. Chef Purna is phenomenal with what he does with authentic Nepali menu, and his special deserts, Sabin and Rabin serve really well, my heart out to all of them. My only place for Nepali food in VA. If any other compete them, please recommend, will be happy to try them out.
