Family Vansa Ghar Restaurant & Bar

Do not let the exterior deter you! Warm and welcoming inside with excellent food prepared fresh in house - they even make the papadum! Definitely adding this to our monthly restaurant rota. The onion pakora was worth the trip and everything else we ordered was well above average. Loved the cheese naan and the Thali Set.

Unforgettable and authentic! The warm hospitality and beautiful scenery on the walls made us feel at home from the moment we entered. The service provided was attentive and friendly, with the staff eager to explain the menu and provide suggestions for dishes. The Dal Bhat was an authentic and soothing dish, with scented rice, hearty lentils, and seasonal vegetables that reminded me of a meal made at home. 🏡 The momos were incredibly delicious - juicy, perfectly spiced, and served with a delicious dipping sauce. 🥫 The size of one double black shot in a black-label drink surprised me compared to other Nepali restaurants in this area. ❤️👍 If you're looking for authentic Nepali cuisine, this place is highly recommended - you'll want to come back every time!

Really tasty, will return. Momo chilly was tangy and the veg it came with was perfect texture. Aalu Tikka came out at a great temp and the spicy did (that I couldn't name) had my nose running - which is a good thing. The Thali was a good portion and I felt the saag & pickle stood out as flavor accents.

I live in north hill, about 2 min from this place and never tried it until today. My son was visiting from Washington state and I mentioned that there was a high population of Nepali in north hill. He suggested that we go to have some Nepali food and we picked this place. So glad we did! The chicken biriyani was the best I've had in the area! Also got chicken momo which was just as good. We were the only ones in the place since we went at a weird time on a Sunday. The waitress was so sweet and helpful, even showing us the brand new carrom board they just got. Had never heard of it but it looked a little like a cross between air hockey and pool. Will definitely return here soon!

The best Indian food in Akron and surrounding area thus far!! I’m spoiled coming from the west coast where we have plenty of amazing Indian restaurants and after trying about 5 here locally I was super disappointed and almost gave up until today, when I placed a to-go order from Family Vansa Ghar. Everything we ordered (which was a lot) was great! Their butter chicken was tender in the sauce which is hard to achieve. Gobi Manchurian had the perfect amount of spice, and flavor. Mango Lassi and Masala Chai were sweet but delicious. Other dishes we tried Chicken Tandori, Paneer Sag, Chicken Vindaloo, Vegetable Samosa, etc. were all freshly cooked and wonderful tasting. The only drawback I have is the location is a bit dicey but you can get your food delivered if this bothers you.

This place is great, the best Nepali food I've ever had in a restaurant. Also the fact they had Gundruk soup was truly amazing. The service was great, friendly, prompt, helpful. My only complaint was it was a little hard finding the front door, the double doors on the right side of the building looked more like the main entrance, and even though there was a sign saying to use other door, since it was on the right door of the double doors it looked more like a sign saying you use the other door of that set.

The food was amazing! Everything came out hot and tasted fresh. The wait staff was very friendly and the restaurant is so organized and clean. I highly recommend not only the food but dining in also!

While looking for an Indian restaurant, we stumbled upon a spot with very good authentic Nepali food. Our party enjoyed vegetable Samosas. We asked the server to select dinner for us. I had the Nepali Thali set titled Mutton. The Mutton was very favorable and spicy just how I like it. The set included greens, soup, dal, salad, rice, and Naan. I had no idea what to expect with the Mutton. It was tender, but boney, and it could be a standard preparation, I really didn't know. The only other opportunity area was the rice. It was firm, I like it less firm. My plate was so clean that there was no need to wash it. I can't wait to visit again.

A charming little spot with delicious food. The Goat Biryani and Boti Kabab (both pictured) were rich in flavor and came in nice sized portions. Once you walk in the door, you'll find the interior is classy and the music/ pictures fit the theme. The hostess/waitress was friendly and prompt.

Stopped in tonight with my family! Great little unassuming spot for authentic Indian/Nepali food. I think it used to be a bar which they converted. We ordered the lamb korma, goat curry, sag paneer, and chicken tikka masala (I know I know...I'm basic, but it was good!) The service was friendly and accommodating. I believe they will start offering buffet on the weekends. My only critique is that there isn't much seating for groups over 4 so they had to do some seat arranging to fit our group of 5. I definitely recommend a visit if you want some authentic cuisine!

Amazing food!! Big portions for good prices. Friendly staff and good atmosphere. Will definitely be back and will be recommending to others.

Everything we have gotten here (momos, curry, chicken tikki masala, naan) is off the charts excellent. Perfect spice level at medium. Service is very good. Spotlessly clean. Highly recommend.

I have ordered from Family Vansa Ghar twice when I've come to town and the food is always excellent. This is a gem of a restaurant on North Hill. The Chicken Korma is excellent.

I just happened to come across this Himalayan restaurant. I choose this dish to sample several items.Everything was absolutely delicious! Fresh, hot great flavor and nice presentation. You could tell the chef was proud of the food. The service was fast and correct with the order. The owner informed me they will bee having a buffet next week. I will definitely be back for that. They have only been open for about a week so I expect it to be very busy when word gets out about the food and the buffet. I think they are working on finding a bartender and more work on appearances. It was very clean but a little empty feeling inside.

Food was great and service too. The portions were quite big for the price. Small parking lot on the side. Will go back when in Akron.
