The 38 Best Restaurants in New Delhi, India | Eater

"Price Range: $$ Humayunpur, a neighborhood in Delhi’s South home to young migrants from Northeastern countries, is arguably the best place to eat in the city. Recently, this small Nepalese restaurant in the neighborhood has gotten overrun with young Instagram influencers turning dumplings around between their fingers while they record videos. The best thing to eat here is the kothey momo: juicy meat- or vegetable-filled dumplings with “wings” that are pan-fried on one side and served with peanut and chile chutneys, some of the city’s best momo sides. The thalis at Lha are also fantastic, especially the vegetarian ones featuring Nepalese dal and greens, as are the Hakka noodles, honey-chile potatoes, and fried string beans. Vibe check: Lha Kitchen’s lines can be catastrophically long, but the food quality remains uncompromised." - Sharanya Deepak

This is one of the best Pahadi cuisine we have ever had..!! If you are in Delhi, I would suggest this is the place.. Not so priced, and worth the waiting time and money..😋 Very authentic and delicious food.. We have tried pretty much every unique cuisine like Shyapta, Kothemomo, LHA special Soup , Pork roast and refreshments.. There is no advance booking, but first come basic, you may expect wait time 30-55 minutes, but you can explore the place at the meantime.. you will see every unique northern cuisine shops nearby 😍😋

Finally gave in to the hype of LHA Kitchen and decided to visit this place for some hot and comforting food. We reached around 3:30pm and they said there’s a waiting of about 1.5 hours and that we’d have to come back by 6pm. Somehow, they gave us a table since the waitlisted people didn’t show up. It’s a really small place, looks like it’s made inside a residential flat. A few tables and 2-3 tables on the floor sitting. We took the floor sitting. They have tried to amp up the place with little Tibetan accents like the monastery bells and flags. (If I’m not mentioning the names right, please feel free to correct me politely.) :) The first thing we ordered were their viral Kothey momos. Honestly i thought they’d be something really different but they were simple veg steamed momos with a crispy layer, like they’d been pan fried. The filling was rather bland and their chutneys are extremely spicy. I personally didn’t like these much. A 3/10 for this. Next up we wanted to try a hot and comforting bowl of Ema Datshi with Ting-mo, the bread. Something about the cheesy gravy tasted extremely off. Like the cheese wasn’t fresh or something. It was loaded with a lot of green capsicum. I couldn’t eat more than 2-3 bites since I didn’t like the taste. Even the bread was a little soggy. I would personally recommend Yeti’s Ema Datshi. 2/10 for this. Lastly, we ordered the safest option- veg noodles. Now the noodles were really spicy and the noodle to vegetable ratio was really less but the taste was still bearable. Proper Chinese van noodles. I’d give it a 6/10. For drinks we ordered a watermelon juice which was nice and fresh. The service was good and quick. But overall, would I visit this place again? I don’t think so. If you haven’t been to this over-hyped place, you’re not really missing out of anything. :)

One of the finest experience i had The food was excellent, and waiting time is not soo long. The staff behaviour is superb. The ambience is great. Totally in Tibetan style. If you are feel very bored with regular south indian style food, just come here and order anything you'll feel you are not in India.

The food was average—I don’t really understand the hype. It might appeal more to non-vegetarians, but for vegetarians, there are far better Nepalese options. Budget-wise it’s reasonable, but definitely not worth the hype. The momos were good, and the thukpa was decent, though quite oily. The veg thakali thali was a major letdown—it was served cold and lacked flavor. Overall, I wouldn’t visit again. Another thing, cleanliness was also a problem there - The Tables, Cutlerly was not cleaned properly. Although the washroom was well maintained.

Lha Kitchen is one of the best places to enjoy the most delicious momos! The taste is incredibly good and full of rich, flavorful juiciness. I also tried their Thakali Thali, which was absolutely tasty, and the Amma Dashi — another must-try dish! I highly recommend Lha Kitchen for its amazing momos and wholesome thali.

We had Lha special veg and chicken momos, ema datschi, veg fried wontons and tingmo. The chicken momos were really good but veg kothey momos were very oily and very basic they are way too overhyped, the fried wontons had a nice crisp but the filling was way too less and the sauce they serve along with it had too much cornflour and too sweet for my taste. Ema datschi was a let down it felt like a white sauce and not cheesy sauce. The portion size quite good though.

A very nice place, won't burn a hole in your wallet and a good place to go to with your friends. Good for College kids. It is infact a sort of hotspot for college kids with its well priced menu and generous portion size. It opens in afternoon, then closes for a bit and then opens again after 6 PM. The reservation can show a longer wait time than is required. A 100% recommend. The wait time after ordering, especially at peak times, can be considered really inconvenient and dissatisfactory by some, but the flavour doesn't disappoint. I've been here multiple time and have never been disappointed even once. The food is flavourful and make you want to eat moree. My friend keep coming back here particularly for their chilli oil wonton, and I've had the pleasure of trying something different everytime. I had chicken choila with tigmo once, amazing flavours, and Chilli chicken what? Chicken choila it is. The chicken, however was a little too chewy for my taste, but the flavour altogether kept me eating. Another time I had sadeko momos, and the gravy in sadeko momos, the filling and the spice and masala level, all very yummy and the portion size so fulfilling.
