This Nepali restaurant offers a delightful dining experience. The ambiance is truly inviting and sets the stage for a memorable meal. The menu presents a variety of options to satisfy any palate. Each dish is crafted with fresh ingredients and attention to detail. I highly recommend indulging in their culinary creations. It is only open for dinner. Recommend booking before hand as it gets really busy at times.

Everything was delicious! Really great flavour and you can taste the quality too! Healthy food is a priority for me and this place fits that bill! Will be back! We had the lamb grill and the dhatpat lamb curry! Great flavours! The pork momo was good too!

my favorite restaurant in Calgary, service is incredibly accommodating and kind, the cocktail and food menus are slim and deliberate, and each dish is executed to such high standards, an absolute must try, especially if you’ve yet to try Nepali cuisine

I was craving a good Indian thali and decided to try this Nepalese restaurant since Nepalese thali is quite similar to a North Indian thali. White its on the pricier side, the food did not disappoint. The Thali was simple and straightforward and packed with great flavours-just what I was hoping for. The portion sizes were great and the momos were fantastic, especially with the spicy sauce that came with them. Definitely a spot I’d revisit next time I’m in town!

Food and service was great! We weren't sure what to get, but John was super helpful and walked us through the whole menu, keeping in mind dietary restrictions, spice preference, and everything! We tried a little bit of everything, including all three types of naan (the coconut naan was very unique!). The pork Momo was very good. I would recommend one of the curries for the most authentic and delicious experience. Overall all of the food was very very good! Even after John walked us through basically the whole menu, he checked up on us very often and refilled our waters constantly. We were interested in dessert but got too full from the rest of the delicious food!

This place has been on my list for a long time and was recommended by friends and colleagues. Finally we made the trip and I am glad we did. It was quite busy on a Saturday night, and I had reserved a table for 2 beforehand. The place looks inconspicuous from outside, but once you enter, it's cozy and elegant. The staff was very welcoming and polite. The service was impeccable and fast. We ordered the fish from the appetizer and dal bhat (thali) from the mains and New Zealand lamb grill. The fish was too good. Fresh and tasty and came with 2 sauces. We loved the thali as well. It was enough for both of us. The curries were flavorful. The bread was fresh and crispy. The lamb grill, though hot and delicious, was a bit chewy for my liking. My husband, a meat lover, knows his meat too well. He found it a tad tough, too. We did mention this to the server after we finished our meal as we didn't want to complain right away. He was very polite and took our complaint to the chef. It was very nice of them to give us a discount on the lamb dish. A very ethical thing to do when running a high end restaurant and I appreciate this gesture. Overall it was a wonderful experience and we will definitely be back to try some more dishes.

Really great restaurant. The food was all tasty and service from John was excellent. He was super friendly and explained the menu nicely. We liked the coconut naan bread especially. The restaurant itself is pretty big, it was lively and had good ambiance.
