During my recent visit to The Nanglo, I had a mixed experience that left room for improvement. The chicken momo was decent but didn't particularly stand out in terms of flavor. It was satisfactory but lacked the depth I expected. Unfortunately, the veg momo was disappointing. It had an overwhelming amount of cabbage and very little paneer stuffing. This imbalance affected the overall taste and quality. A better proportion of ingredients would enhance the dish significantly. On the brighter side, the chicken lollipop was a highlight of the meal. It was delicious, with a perfect blend of spices, though the presentation was rather underwhelming and could be improved to match the taste.
Moving on to the main course, both the fried chicken rice and chicken manchurian gravy were very good. The fried chicken rice was flavorful and well-cooked, while the chicken manchurian gravy had a rich, savory taste that complemented the rice beautifully. These dishes were definitely the standout items of the evening.
However, the service was a bit slow, which affected the overall dining experience. Despite this, our server was very friendly and attentive, ensuring we were comfortable and addressing our needs promptly. The restaurant could benefit from having more servers to reduce wait times and improve the efficiency of service.
Being a Nepali restaurant, I expected their Nepali dishes to be the highlight, but surprisingly, their Hakka cuisine was more impressive. This was unexpected, and while the Hakka dishes were enjoyable, I would love to see improvements in their traditional Nepali offerings to better represent their culinary heritage.
Overall, there were some clear pros and cons. The chicken lollipop was delicious, and the fried chicken rice and chicken manchurian gravy were excellent. The service, though slow, was friendly and attentive. However, the veg momo was disappointing, the chicken momo was average, and the presentation of dishes could use some improvement. I hope to see enhancements in both the wait time and food quality on my next visit. With a few adjustments, The Nanglo has the potential to provide an exceptional...
Read moreMy friends were visiting from Alberta, and we decided to try something new—Nepali cuisine. I’m so glad we did! From the moment we walked in, the music and ambience transported us straight to Nepal. And then came the food—an experience that exceeded expectations.
What We Tried: • Sandeko Sausages – Two per plate, well-spiced and flavorful, though not mind-blowing. (3/5) • Chicken Lollipop – A classic done right—crispy, juicy, and satisfying. (4/5) • Delhi Momos – Steamed momos served with an incredible creamy sauce. The sauce was the star! (5/5) • Rice Wine – Not a fan of the consistency or smell, though the taste was somewhat like wine. (2/5) • Thakali Thali – We ordered it with chicken and mutton on the side. It felt so comforting and homely. The ghee pour was generous, and surprisingly, the bitter gourd was the standout—absolutely delicious.
Vegetarian Dishes: • Veg Hakka Noodles – Tasted just like authentic street-style noodles—packed with flavor. (4/5) • Sadeko Momo – Spicy and packed with masala, offering a unique and bold taste. (4/5)
Highlight of the Experience:
The best part wasn’t just the food—it was the owner personally coming over to chat with us. It was heartwarming and added a personal touch to the meal. I loved how the cuisine carried familiar Indian flavors yet had its own distinct character.
Will definitely...
