Jaywok › New York City
27 Nepali restaurants in New York City, listed by borough.
Momos are the reason to come: dumplings filled with chicken, buffalo or vegetables, steamed or fried, often served in jhol, a tomato and sesame broth. For a full meal, get a thali of dal bhat, lentils and rice with curries and pickles. Choila, spiced grilled meat, and thukpa, a noodle soup, round it out.
Almost every Nepali restaurant in the city is in Queens, packed into Jackson Heights and Elmhurst around Roosevelt Avenue and Broadway, where Nepali, Tibetan and Bhutanese communities share the same blocks. Nepali Bhanchha Ghar on Roosevelt Avenue made the NYT 100.
