Special - Edit
I think I recall this place being in a different location nearby, and hadn't been back for awhile and loved that it's now fully vegan. I love the vibes and music in here and the staff are accomodating. The food was delicious and it was great they had a lot of gluten free options for my friend. We shared our dishes family style because we all wanted to try a lot of things but that wasn't super filling on it's own so we ordered more. The broccoli dish was most of our favorite!

Nice establishment and variety - Edit
Advertising over 50 vegan dishes
Read moreCute interior. Really like the full open windows in front and got a window seat.
Traditional meditative music
Friendly service but a tad slow with only one wait person.
Early dinner just after opening, so very few people. More arrived before I left.
Sho-ko Momo, potato version. Very wet filling. A few of them feel apart before I could get into my mouth. The mint is a nice accompaniment. Wolfed down all nine of them!
Ngoe-thuk organic version $4. She wasn't sure what the differences from one on the front page were other than being organic. Hope it's the version everyone raved about in reviews. Red Hot sauce and tamari condiments.
Great hand made noodles, broccoli, carrots, left greens, tofu, celery, scallions, pumpkin seeds, mildly spiced.
Didn't often get vegan lassi option do mango was refreshing
Normally might have fed two lite appetites if shared but this guy was hungry and polished it all off!
Bhaktsa-Marku, pasta brown sugar with butter. Whipped cream topping added! Want sure what to expect but nice tasty finishing touch. Chewy and sweet small pellets of pasta.
Pros: Variety, Interior
Cons: Parking

Kind quick service. Portions are a little small so order one extra dish. Dessert are delicious too. Everything we ordered was great.

Fully Vegan Tibetan! - Edit
Large, tasty menu. We tried the Momo combo and a noodle soup, and they were spectacular. Barley tea was perfect. Can't wait to come back and try more! The Tibetan chanting on the stereo helps with digestion, I'm sure.

So good!!! - Edit
Large menu of tasty vegan food! The potato dumplings (momo) were especially delicious, but there’s so much I haven’t tried yet and look forward to trying in the future!
Read moreNice ambiance with traditional music and incense. (If sensitive to incense it might be better to get take-out.)
We should all support this place!

Vegan Nepalese! - Edit
5 stars because I don’t think there is any all vegan Nepalese elsewhere in the Bay Area! Staff were very kind and recommended the soup to us! This place is newly all vegan and right down the way from the Butcher’s Son, nice to support an all vegan establishment!

Delectable and kind - Edit
We got the momos, tofu chips, and a noodle soup with handmade noodles. They were all fantastic and so delicious. The star of the show was the curried potatoes - not to be missed! The staff were kind and prompt. The restaurant was empty at 6pm on a Sunday but filled after 7pm.

Delightful Food - Edit
An extensive menu, friendly people, and great vegan food with fresh, perfectly-cooked veggies! The beverage selection was also interesting and good. The steamed bread (Tingmo) was really nice to have with the entrees, so I’d recommend giving that a try as well!
