What People Are Saying About Little Nepal

The Scene – An eclectic neighborhood crowd, ranging from aging hipsters to young families, packs this tiny space. Ten tables line the cozy wood-paneled walls, brightened by miniature drop lamps hanging over tables. Himalayan flute music plays quietly in the background, as the friendly waitstaff races from the kitchen. – – The Food – The Nepalese food served here is strikingly similar to the cuisine of northern India, with a few variations. Momos, doughy steamed dumplings, are stuffed with curried pork, or lumpy mashed potatoes and peas, set off with spicy dipping sauce…
Chicken tastes like mothballs...
by senatorsmith
...typically a sign that the spices used have gone stale in storage (they absorb mothball odors). Otherwise, cheery staff, cheery prices, and cheery ski-lodge style decor. Limited menu (mostly variations on 4-5 basic dishes) with weak desert options. Slow service for a small restaurant.
- Pros: Ski-lodge style decor, friendly staff
- Cons: Stale spices raise questions about food quality
Little Nepal - great eats!
by xradfish
Little Nepal made our regular tuesday night with great dinner experience! Its cramping place - just accommodating less than 12 tables - is well compensated by it's warm ambiance and delicious food. The waitresses and patrons were all friendly, which added to our warm experience of the night. The Kukhurako Ledo that my sweet Che ordered, and the Spicy Minced Lamb for myself satisfied not only our appetite but as well our taste buds! The food was such a treat! It was our first visit and it won't be our last.. We highly recommend the place!
- Pros: thumbs up!
- Cons: expect a long wait for table, and parking could be tough.
Great atmosphere, awesome food

Only went here once but thoroughly enjoyed it. Food was great, service was friendly, the wood paneled walls were nice. It's a good place to go when you're in the mood for something different. Can get a little hot on warm, muggy days, but it's worth the trip up the hill.
