10/10 recommend this place. It has some interesting artwork for purchase, as well as general decor that's cool to look at. The service was good, but don't be afraid to (kindly) ask your server for things because they are really busy and don't generally stop by as much as 'Americanized' restaurants.
We ordered to share: sushi lhamo - spicy, cold, interesting. would rec trying momo combo - These were amazing, esp the veg and chicken ones, but you can't tell which is which in combo so beware if sharing with dietary restrictions thenthuk w/pork - Make sure to mix it up to get sauce on bottom, this is incredible ngoethuk w/chicken - Our fav thing on the menu and maybe the best thing I've eaten.

We loved this place and will...

Can’t really say I enjoyed it cause it was too new thing to me but it was interesting experience, so no regret for trying. -Noodle soup was unfortunately not that good. Soup was too mild with just little flavor for my palate, veggies in there felt too raw for what’s in soup noodle, and noodle’s texture was dissappointing. Pic in the menu suggests it’s red(spicy) but in reality it’s not. -Dumplings were pretty good, although the style of it wan’t really new to me. Dumpling dough was the version that was made out of potato, so it’s bit more transparent/sticky/chewy...
