Urban Momo

Momos are absolutely amazing here! Juicy, perfectly springy wrapper, and full of flavor.There is a bit of a wait - 15 min for me but the staff were definitely aware I was pressed for time and sped it up. I would not hesitate to come here again as long as I have the time to wait for these fresh momos to be steamed.

This review is quite a bit later than my actual visit. While at San Pedro Square, I chose to go back to them since they have quite a few vegetarian items. I got the garlic tikka fries and paneer tikka masala.Garlic tikka fries: Very garlicky and also has onions on it, but other than it being maybe more garlicky than my preference, I thought the fries themselves were good and nicely crispy.Paneer tikka masala: I actually felt there was not enough rice relative to the curry, but on the flip side it means they're generous with the curry. It was good, savory, though I can't say anything was particularly unique about it.When we went back to get a lid for the leftovers, the worker already guessed correctly what we were wanting, so I thought that was impressive that they could figure that out even before we said anything.

A hidden gem at San Pedro Square! Not sure how I never tried this place before out of all the numerous times I've been here. But finally got down to it, and boy it was worth it!FOOD:----------I would describe the food as a combination between Chinese and Indian influences, flavor wise.First of all, had to try the *Chicken Momos* for which they are famous. And rightly so! Deliciously stuffed with a solid ratio of meat to veggie, and filled with delightful herbs and spices. Really supple and tasty.Their *Chicken Chow Mein* reminds me of Singapore style chow mein. Great taste, good meat/veggie to noodle ratio, and super filling, which is great when you have hungry hungry people with you.We were recommended the *Chicken Tikka Masala* which I thought might be a standard version, but this one really punched my mouth with superb flavor. The portion was very generous and I couldn't stop stuffing myself with this dish.SERVICE/AMBIANCE:-----------------------------Service was great and they gave excellent recommendations. Ambiance is pretty vibrant on the back side of the market without being too rowdy. This is the calmer side of San Pedro Square so you won't be disturbed by (too many) drunken interruptions.TIP: You can always order to go, so that you can pack up the leftovers even after you eat here.DATE TIP: Definitely a great place to order and share lots of tasty morsels. That to-go box will come in handy so you and your date don't overstuff yourself!

I had the Szechuan vegetable fried rice and I really enjoyed it, especially the spice level. It's located inside the San Pedro square market area, so it's a good place to grab a quick bite if you're in the area. The prices are pretty good and it's a pretty convenient spot for takeout as well.

Way too salty, too much seasoning and turns out the use MSG!!! I'm still super thirsty few hours later!

Love the stir fry noodles and tandoori chicken . This food is must try. Service is fast depending on what you order and how busy it is. Avoid peak rush hours during lunch time 12-1 pm. Ambiance is loud as it is located inside San Pedro square market.

Food was amazing - i ordered gobhi manchurian and paneer with rice - spice level was as i ordered - will definitely order again or come and it ( this was delivery order)

Stopped by here during Fanime! It's located in the San Pedro Square Market. Since it's a food court, it WILL get quite busy during peak hours on the weekends, especially if there's a holiday or an event going on (aka Fanime lol). There's seating inside (limited) and some seating outside too. Just grab a table and send your people out to order food. Most businesses here will either text you or have a buzzer notify you when your food is ready. For our dinner, we got the: 1) Chicken Momos: -These are Nepali dumplings served with their traditional dipping sauce, achaar. This is apparently a South Asian pickle sauce. It does have a slight sourness to it, from the fact that it's pickled and it gives a refreshing flavor to the food. -The dumplings are nice and juicy with moist meat inside. Exterior was not too delicate and not too thick or dry either. Can't go wrong with some solid dumplings.2) Paneer Tikka Masala: -These are grilled cheese cubes served in their red, creamy sauce. -This has a slight sweetness and spiciness to it. -I feel like you can go wrong with any form of cheese dish. What is this if not another form of mozzarella stick? Though not as gooey, it's still pretty good. -Probably my favorite of the 3 that we ordered. 3) Szechuan Mixed Fried Rice: -This comes with chicken, scrambled eggs, veggies, spicy sichuan peppers, and garlic. -Very flavorful rice that packs a punch and lingering heat. Actually decently spicy. -Good amount of protein mixed into the fried rice. I think my only qualm with it (and I'm not sure if it's supposed to be like this), but the fried rice texture was a bit soggy and gooey. Not bad, but became a bit heavy to eat (probably due to the oiliness). Decently unique and flavorful food in DT SJ within walking distance of the convention center!

Absolutely satisfied with Urban Momo and their offerings. I am also a bit skeptical when it comes to spice levels at any restaurant because they have to appease to the common tolerance but my main take away from Urban Momo is that they use their spices authentically and generously. I love it to pack some heat and my selection definitely did. Plenty of dishes to choose from, with healthy serving portions. I ordered thru a delivery service and the packaging were nicely contained and serve as a serving dish as well (no dishes were washed that night). Can't wait to explore the menu more.

Everything was good i tried veg fried momos and it was yum and service was ok and ambience was good a happy ending place
