“ Their Ali boodi Tami soup...I'd drive 20 miles for it; uber fragrant broth, bamboo shoots, blackeyed peas, tomatoes and potato etc. Simple, no frills interior. But yummy Nepal region-esque food that I keep going back for. ”
“ We ate at Katmandu Spice tonight. The service was excellent. The waitress was pleasant and efficient. She was the only one on the floor. There was a steady stream of take out and door dash pick ups and one table of eight and another couple while we were eating. The food was excellent. I thoroughly enjoyed my chicken chili (Nepalese style). It was flavorful, appealing to the eye, and perfectly spicy. The garlic naan couldn't have tasted better. I so enjoyed the onion chutney side. My partner ordered the vegetarian thali. He enjoyed all of the variety and the mango lassi. The mustard greens and spinach were surprisingly delicious. Unfortunately, the ambiance leaves much room for improvement and the decor needs attention. It was rather cold and dated. With food this good, it was worth overlooking. ”
“ The food is amazingly delicious. When it comes to the staff, everybody is so nice friendly, honest, caring, and appreciative. Walking into this restaurant you will notice how friendly everybody is and welcoming. The ambience of this restaurant is also amazing and very up-to-date. I would highly recommend this restaurant because of their authentic Indian cuisine that they have to offer to their customers. ”
“ Delicious Indian food in the area! The presentation of the dishes coming out of the clay ovens is so beautiful, they always come out steaming. I usually get something basic like the butter chicken or tikka masala, medium spicy, and I can say it does make my tongue burn so caution if you're sensitive to spicy. My boyfriend and I love to visit this location for Indian food. The staff is so kind as well. ”
“ One of the best ethnic local restaurants in Manchester. Coming from Queens, I recognize good Nepalese food in NYC. While traveling for work, I read about this place and had to see it for myself. Grabbed myself a plate of momos (a must get!l and their Thali variety rice platters, which give you a little taste of everything Nepalese. I like the mom & pop local vibes this places gives, with their regional decor and music in the background. This place is a Nepalese gem is worth a visit if you happen to be in Manchester, New Hampshire. ”
“ Decided to order some Indian Food, after not getting some for a while due to various reasons. What a pleasant surprise! Food of this place is amazing . I would definitely return to dine in. It has been a while since I have felt that wow factor and this place has it. Only reason why I am not giving them a 5 star is because I felt that portion wise, it could have been slightly better, especially when the food is so tasty. Otherwise this would be a perfect review. ”
