"It takes a dependable naan to cover all of its many applications—soaked in curry, wrapped around butter chicken, and snacking plain. And for that, we’d go with Indian-Nepali Kitchen’s garlic basil version. The stuff is puffy, tandoor-toasty, and sprinkled with just enough garlic and dried herbs to keep things interesting." - Aimee Rizzo
"This low-key Indian and Nepali restaurant on Aurora Ave deserves to be part of the Seattle elite for their momos alone. These juicy chicken parcels disappear from the plate quicker than Mt. Rainier in November, or friends when you need help moving. They’ve got moist filling, a tender wrapper, and preparations that surpass the performance of regular old steam, particularly the tandoori-roasted ones. The other dishes are excellent, too, like thick butter curry that breaks down cubes of stewed lamb beautifully, and the aloo gobi that has us vowing never to take cauliflower and potatoes for granted again. For an area with many outstanding Indian restaurants outside of Seattle proper, we’re lucky to have this one right in Greenwood." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
"Come to this quiet Aurora spot for a weeknight dinner sans drama. The moody black-and-red dining room smells like sizzled garlic, and you can sop up gravy-drenched aloo gobi with naan that’s nearly half an inch thick. Best part is, even at prime dinner time, the small place doesn't get crowded. Yes, it’s hard to believe this kind of calm plays out on a busy stretch of Aurora, but just order more sadheko chicken momo and don’t question it." - kayla sager riley, aimee rizzo, gabe guarente
"It should be a holiday tradition to enjoy perfectly wrapped momos at Seattle's Best New Restaurant Of 2024. But the cool and casual restaurant offers a whole spectrum of fantastic comfort food without making a big deal about it. You can easily have a celebratory feast inside the relaxed dining room, or order takeout if you've got emergency gift returns on the mind." - kayla sager riley
"All of the momos at this outstanding Indian restaurant are unmatched, and yet we have to give an edge to the tandoori version: the greatest momos in Seattle. You have a moist, shallot-y chicken filling, a tangy yogurt-marinated wrapper, fire engine red kashmiri tint, and charred bitsies from the tandoor oven, which amp things up in a way regular old steam simply can’t. We’d swing by Indian-Nepali Ktichen just for three to four orders of these suckers." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
