Really interesting destination. We wanted to try something a little different and decided to check this place out. The menu seems to draw from both Indian and Chinese cuisines, but it's also kind of its own category. The restaurant is in a bit of a run-down strip mall on route 51, which made it somewhat hard to find and get to. That having been said, the staff were very kind and helpful, and the interior space was decorated with some amount of care. We ordered takeout, and the food was well-packaged and delicious. The samosa chaat was really well executed with a pleasant combination of flavors and textures. The steamed momo (dumplings) had a really nice flavor and were paired with a fantastic spicy chile sauce. The daal was more of a thin soup than something thicker, but the seasoning was both unique and tasty. The spinach paneer and vegetable curry were also excellent but felt much more like something you might find at a standard Indian restaurant than something unique. Nothing wrong with that. Overall, this was a nice place to check out and a business that I feel good about supporting.

The food brought me right back to my time in Nepal. Too many times, you go to a specialty restaurant and find it's been changed to suite the palate of the places it's in. Well, I guess the people here like it the way it's supposed to be. If you're looking for authentic Nepalese cuisine in Pittsburgh, look no further than Everest Kitchen. The flavors and spices used in their dishes are truly unparalleled. I highly recommend the momos (dumplings) and the aloo pokora. The portions are generous and the staff is always friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, making it a great spot for a date night or a casual dinner with friends. Don't forget to try their Nepali tea - it's the perfect end to a delicious meal. Overall, Everest Kitchen is a must-visit for anyone.

This place is usually very good which is why I am giving them 4 stars despite the fact that the chicken chow mein was not nearly as good as it usually is.My main issue is that the chicken was inedible this time, and I am not kidding. It was so dried up and rock hard I don't think a dog would have wanted it. Which is strange because usually the chicken is amazingly delicious. It almost seemed like another dish this time. As you can see, we shared out dishes so neither of us wanted to touch the chicken. They must have either put the chicken under a hot lamp all day without moisture or remicrowaved it several times to get it this dry and hard. It almost seemed like a cruel joke. I wish they asked us how our meals were or talked with us at any point after serving the trays. Which usually they do. Even just replacing it with peanuts would have helped. Which is so strange because all the other times I got this dish it was amazing. I still recommend going here because their food is typically amazing. Maybe just ask how the chicken is that day or avoid the chicken. The noodles with the chicken chow mein were also significantly less fresh and flavorful than they usually are as well. I would be interested in trying the mutton or pork sometime. The chili Momo, however, was amazing. It was just a tad spicy for me but I still Loved loved loved... I DEFINITELY recommend trying the Momo here which is amazing with the caramelized onions!I also loved the feel of the atmosphere and the huge pitcher of water with lemon juice.

Delicious Nepalese food and very friendly service. It has a nice atmosphere and a cool large art piece on the wall. The pork sekuwa was my favorite thing I had, but everything was great.

Hi there Yelpers! If you're looking to support a little tasty Nepalese business in the area Everest is wonderful! We read other reviews that mentioned the food coming out cold, and that was not our experience at all! We are at the restaurant and the food came out one by one in regular intervals across an hour and a half. Is it a place for a super fast meal? No, but the food was gosh darn good!We don't usually have much interaction with Nepalese food, but it's like an indo-East asian combination that I think hits the tummy and is yummy (such rhyming skills :p) with a lot less of the bloating.The prices are reasonable and the quantity is good. They are all masked and the space is big enough that you don't feel cramped and at risk of spreading Covid. They also brought out bottles of water so clearly they've been listening to feedback from other reviews.5/5 we would come here again and I think people should show them some love! A huge meal for 3 people (we ended up with leftovers) ended up being just shy of $100 with tax and tip included.Definitely try the mutton, if you can eat meat because boy gee golly do they do the mutton well!!! They were super nice too :)

This was my first experience with Himalayan food and it was delicious. Spice wise was a combo of Thai and Indian. I went with a friend and we started with vegetarian steamed momo - yummy delicate dumplings with a spicy peanut sauce. She got the thuket and I got the Sudeka. The thuket was similar to pho. Loved the flavor of the broth and the large pieces of veggies. Very filling. The sudeka was dried fried pork which was very tasty and the addition of peas and onions offset the spice level. The service was fantastic. Very patient and answered all of our questions. Super reasonable prices too.

This was fabulous. We got the chicken momos steamed. They were tasty, but we will try them fried next time. We got the c (chili) momos. OMG. These we soooo good. Mind blowingly tasty. I want to go TODAY and get more. They dialed down the heat a little for us (medium). I think I might be willing to give authentic a go :). We also got the chicken Thali. It was very tasty and a nice showcase. We shared it. The food put me in mind of a cross between Chinese and Indian food (if you're not familiar with the style)So good. The location is a little bit of a dive, but the food is awesome and that's what I'm going for.

I just ordered a veg chow noodle to go today.When I got a bag I got strange feeling bc it it was so light. Then I opened the package I looked around. I thought I was on prank tv.Is this a joke? No, it was real. What I saw inside was instant ramen noodle. yes, INSTANT RAMEN NOODLE. It was $6.96. Are you kidding me ??? The taste terrible too. I can make better meal less than $.25. WHAT A RIP OFF! The WORST lunch I have ever had. NEVER Go back!

Amazing! There are 4 Nepalese restaurants in a 3 mile radius - I've been to every one numerous times now and while they are all very good, I can confidently say that this one is the best in my opinion. Their chef is very talented, everything is fresh, spiced to perfection, and just all around good. Prices are reasonable. Even getting take-out it's amazing. My fav dishes are the samosa chaat, the momo (all varieties), the thukpa, and the aloo pakora. Their dipping sauce is so good that I scrape the container. Totally recommend, 10 stars!
