California Momo Kitchen — Restaurant in Sunnyvale

I am a self proclaimed momo connoisseur and have tried many momos across the SF Bay and LA. This is one of my new favorites in the southbay!!! I don’t say this often — execution on all items was perfect.

FYI This restaurant does serve all halal meat, I confirmed with the front desk, and “halal” is stated on their menu.

Food: Momos were juicy and you could tell that they were fresh and handmade. The momo wrapper was not overly thick, chicken was very well seasoned inside with good flavor! I ate the chicken jhol and chili momos. I highly recommend both! The chili mamas were exceptional — The chili sauce surprised me! I loved their sweet and hot sauce on the Chili momos and loved the charred onions and peppers with it. Slight kick to their “spicy” dishes but nothing overpowering or tongue numbing which is hard to find a good balance of! For those wary of spice, Jhol momo had a creamy sesame sauce that I highly enjoyed, very different and refreshing. Chow mein was very good as well, great flavor, noodles were saucy, nice bite to the egg noodles, and I appreciate that they added veggies like cabbage and broccoli to their noodles for texture variety. All items were executed very well and were not overly greasy, overly spicy, or over seasoned. Just perfect! They do offer chili crunch on the side for the adventurous.

Service: very attentive, kind, and quick! We were hungry and the food came out within 15min.

Ambiance: nice clean restaurant, nepal themed ambiance and decor, they have plenty of space for families, groups, or office lunches. Plenty of free parking in the parking lot.

Overall, I will be back again and would love to try more of their items like the lamb momos, chicken lollipop, and...

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this fantastic Nepalese restaurant that opened recently near my home, and I have to say, I was blown away! From start to finish, my experience was nothing short of amazing.

I ordered both chicken momo and lamb momo, and they were absolutely delicious! The flavors were perfectly balanced, and the texture was just right. I couldn't help but fall in love with these delightful dumplings. The sauce they served with the momo was amazing, it complemented the flavors of the dumplings perfectly.

What really stood out to me, though, was the incredible hospitality of the staff. I visited the restaurant during a time when they were about to close their kitchen, but they still went out of their way to ensure that I got my order. I was truly impressed by their dedication and willingness to provide outstanding customer service.

As a Nepalese, I was especially excited to try this restaurant, and I am so glad that it didn't disappoint at all. The ambiance of the place was also very impressive. The decor was lovely, and the seating arrangements were comfortable. I was also pleased to see that there was ample parking space available, so I didn't have to worry about finding a spot to park my car.

Overall, I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to try some good Nepalese food. The staff, the food, and the ambiance were all top-notch, and I can't wait to visit again and try some more dishes. If you're looking for an unforgettable dining experience, this is the...

My husband and I recently visited this Nepali restaurant, and overall, we had a really good experience. We ordered the chicken Jhol Momos and the combo skewer platter that came with both chicken and lamb, served with a side of rice. The food arrived fresh and well presented. The chicken Jhol Momos were absolutely delicious — rich, flavorful, and perfectly spiced. They were easily the highlight of the meal for me. The skewer platter, however, was a bit of a mixed experience. The chicken skewers were juicy and flavorful, but the lamb was unfortunately very tough and hard to chew, so both my husband and I ended up leaving it. Our friends ordered the veggie Jhol Momos and the Nepali Thali, and they really enjoyed their dishes. The restaurant serves halal food, which is definitely a plus. The ambiance was lively and welcoming, and it seemed quite popular since most tables were full. Portion sizes were generous, and the prices felt reasonable for the amount of food served. Overall, it’s a great place to try if you’re craving authentic Nepali flavors. I’d happily return for the chicken dishes, especially the Jhol Momos, but I’d skip the...
