Atmosphere: Cool but comfortable. It would be good for a quick meal or get some work done but there's also a dimly lit room in the back for a proper dinner date.
Curious: I noticed last minute that they offer cocktails so maybe I can update on my next visit.
Round it out with ginger cardamom iced tea.
I’ll be back.
I was really excited about this place and took my sister and cousin so that we can eat some good Nepali food. We had to wait more than 55 min to get our order. I repeatedly asked if they had missed our order but they said it's getting ready and took forever. The food is decent, serving size is small but I was super disappointed with their service
Recommended: Try the pies! The flaky crust and warm spicy filing are a great combination. Definitely gives a pasty or pot pie good competition. The actual chiya (tea) didn't stand out on my first visit but the flavors of the food and side dishes make this a must visit spot.
This place is wonderful! The food is delicious and reasonably priced. Staff is friendly and the owner even introduced himself to me and asked how everything was. Highly recommend!
The star of the show was the Chiya chili potatoes. Pretty spicy, but balanced well with honey. The cucumber raita helps cool the palate with that one. Go for the garlic paratha.
Very good first experience. I can recommend every item I tried.
Many types of chai tea, great savory pies and dumplings! Coffee shop format up front and dining area in back, open in the evenings.
Service: Friendly, enthusiastic staff. I only walked in the first time after a staff member saw me reading the menu outside and encouraged me to come in and try it.
I've been here two times and I'm looking forward to my next visit.
