If you're a fan of this particular type of food then I guess it will appeal to you. For me, this was my 2nd time trying momos, and I think it's just not for me.I grabbed a late to-go night snack of fried momos, chili momos, vegetable momos, and kheer momos (that we're replaced with gulag jamun). Yes that's a snack, shut up.The fried momos were far and away the best. Lightly fried just to crisp the wrapper, and a bit juicy, these tasted good, stayed in 1 piece, and had a satisfying meaty flavor that the sauces accentuated nicely.The chili momos were... alright. Look, if you want to try this, ONLY order it to eat there. It's basically potsticker-shaped momos stir fried with tomatoes, bell peppers, onions, and sauce. Potsticker wrappers being what they are, they absorb the sauce and get soggy, so this concoction gets gloppy and hard to eat fast.Taste wise this wasn't even spicy, more sweet and sour, and the vegetables were kind of unevenly cooked. Tomatoes were just shy of mush, bell peppers and onions were still crunchy. I don't know, it didn't really come together for me, just had an unusual combination of flavors and textures I didn't like.The final savory dish was vegetable momos, and these sucked. Pardon the bluntness but they were overcooked, falling apart, stuck together in a sloppy mess, sitting in a puddle. And I ate them in maybe 5 minutes after picking them up. They taste vaguely vegetal, but with a mushy consistency that really detracted from whatever they might have originally been. It was just gross.Finally, my dessert of gulag jamun, which replaced the kheer momos I ordered. These were good but inexplicably served cold.Who eats cold gulab jamun? Nobody, or at least nobody sane. At least make it room temperature, but I like mine slightly warm. Like a normal person.Parking is very tricky here as they are on a busy street next to a neighborhood. But it's kind of irrelevant, because just like with Ethiopian food, I have given momos two chances and that's enough.
