Temptation Cuisine

My actual rating is about a 3.5 but I'm rounding up since the flavors were good and the prices pretty reasonable. This review is for dinner, I avoid buffets like the plague.I went with a group of seven, which honestly is stretching their capability to serve a bit. The service was friendly, but very slow and everything came out one at a time, which is a little awkward in a big group.I very much enjoyed the veggie momo (dumplings) which look like chinese dumplings but definitely have more of an indo-pak kind of flavor to them. The aloo tikki chaat (?) was a great appetizer, really gooey but lots of flavors that worked well together.I ordered goat curry thali, as I am a huge fan of goat curry. The flavor wasn't bad, but it was the fattiest goat curry I've ever had. I am not exaggerating, I had a huge pile of fat on my plate by the end of the meal, and only two pieces that actually had meat on them. I know goat can be fatty, and I don't mind all the bones, but come on... I would not order this dish again. The vegetable sides and dal in the thali were decent but I've already forgotten most of them. My friend gave me a (non-mushroomy) bite of her lamb with mushroom and that one had a very good sweet and creamy flavor. Were it available to order sans mushroom I'd be all over it. My other friend gave me a bite of his ginger goat and that was better than the goat curry, though it is a sauceless dish and I am a saucy wench.Prices were very reasonable esp. compared to most Indian food in the metroplex which tends to be overpriced in general. Our waiter was particularly nice but I would suggest only dining with two, and probably only if you're local. I probably wouldn't drive here from Arlington again on my own, but if my friends had another get-together here I'd attend (but have a quick snack first so I'm not starving!)

Like it .... Will come back for a late night snack. The biryani is spicier then usual . But if you are a spice lover it's the perfect place

This is the worst place I would go as Nepalese cuisine.They give you stale food and if you ask them to remake the food it was still same food which I think they refry it and will still charge you.Health is important...do not waste your time and money in this place

Order jhol momo to take out. The sauce "jhol" which comes with momo was old and smelly. I would not recommend this place to anyone. This used to be my favorite place but the taste of the food is not consistent. Sometimes it's very good and sometimes it smelly. I would not like to gamble on the food I am getting. I want it consistent.

Very dissapointing! Entered the restuarant and there was nobody to welcome. After i rang the bell, a lady appeared lickig her finger, she might be eating something, no greeting at all!I ordered chicken thali that taste so bad. The food they serve does not look fresh. Foods are overpriced however they have terrible service and tasteless foods. They need to grow up.

I'm not familiar with Himalaya/ Nepali food but food we ordered were tasty and in reasonable price. The first thing came to the table was a complementary plate of chips. Crispy! I ordered Chicken Biryani. It is $6.99 and we're surprised that they gave us a large portion. Quite spicy but I liked it. It was flavorful because of different spices and chicken pieces were not tiny. It's more on moist side. Not sure if the chef was doing it right but I think it tasted good. My boyfriend ordered Mutton Himalayan Thali. It is a complete plate with naan, rice, main dish, veggies and dessert. We liked one of the dishes that taste like mashed potato. Yum!The only complaint is it took us about 20-30 minutes to get our food on the table. Probably is because there was a big party hold in the restaurant. Maybe the kitchen cannot handle that many orders? We were not in hurry so it was fine for us. Will definitely come back and try other dishes.

White dudes who love biryani ftw!No but seriously it's awesome. And the goat curry. Sheeeeeeeee-it. Dip that garlic naan in there and you've got a one way ticket to flavor town.

We arrived at Temptation at noon on a Monday. We were literally the only customers there, which always makes me uneasy. It was quite chilly in the restaurant so I mentioned it to the waitress. She said their heat was not working. So, we didn't take off our coats. The area where we were seated had a loud television playing "How I Met Your Mother." We found the remote and put it on mute. A few minutes later, another television was turned on in another part of the restaurant playing a children's program very loudly. It took 35 minutes for us to receive our food after we ordered. Two other small groups of people came in after we placed our orders. For some reason the food for all three tables came out together. The waitress had a cart to take the food to each table. I have never seen that before and thought it was kind of odd. I had the chicken tikka masala and it was delicious, however the portion size did not justify the cost. I probably will not visit this restaurant again.

I'm guessing the style of cooking favors the northern western region of the country with the Himalaya/Nepali influence. I thought I was fairly experienced with Indian food, but the dishes we tried were new to me. They had the same names as those in a typical Indian restaurant, but were somewhat different. For example, the masala had the same spices as south Indian places but was dryer without the thick creamy sauce.We came late on a Sunday night - around 9pm, There were a few groups of Indian guys, hanging out, having drinks and small plates. I didn't recognize their language, but I always think if native speakers are regulars at a restaurant, it lends to the authenticity of the food.

This is the first Nepali restaurant I've been to in DFW. Their prices are good and we really enjoyed their chili momo. Unfortunately, their steamed chicken momo was a little disappointing compared to momo I've had in the past. The interior is nice, with pretty decorations and lighting. The service wasn't great. Our waitress was nice, but she wasn't very attentive to us. The restaurant wasn't busy at all, in fact we were the only table for the majority of our meal. However, our water glasses were empty a couple of times throughout our meal and no one ever came to refill them the second time they emptied. We also couldn't figure out after our meal if we were supposed to wait for our check or go to the front and pay. After waiting for around 10 minutes at our table, we eventually walked to the front and waited a few more minutes before our waitress finally walked up. Overall, this is a solid place for Nepali food though and we'll most likely return someday!
