My friend and I went to hiking at Labagh Woods and came back to try this restaurant. It was so amazing! The server knew their menu and their food. I loved my Butter chicken with garlic Naan. Steamed Chicken Momo we shared was also extraordinary. Rice pudding was so delightful after the meal. The whole experience was very satisfying. Wanna give extra star if allowed(*´∇`*)

The goat curry was delicious, so tender, so flavorful. And the noodles packed a lot of flavor too. Usually I don’t like skinny noodles, but this one was worth it.

The chicken momo was fantastic! There are not many places around that makes these well but this spot is truly a gem for it. You can tell the dumplings were handmade from the hole on top, which was where the thumb was when the wrapper was pinched together. The wrappers were steamed just to the right doneness and had a nice chew. The filling was juicy and impressively flavorful with many spices creating a layered complexity that somehow still felt seamless. The dipping sauce was pleasantly ginger-forward and made the dumplings even more delicious.

The food here is so good. The service is wonderful too. We were so sad when the previous Nepalese/Indian restaurant in this space closed, because we loved ordering out from them. The Little Sherpa is just as good, but with an upgraded dine in space. We dined in for the first time this evening and will definitely be back. I highly recommend. Definitely a new neighborhood gem.

My family and I have visited this restaurant at least five times, sampling a variety of dishes, and each one has consistently been fresh, well-seasoned, and thoughtfully prepared. The portions are good for the price. The owners are very warm and welcoming. Little Sherpa has become a go-to spot, and we don’t see ourselves getting tired of it anytime soon.

Wow, if you are from Nepal or if you have tried real Nepalese food this is the spot to be. The food cannot be any better than this in Chicago. The mo:mo is awesome, the chowmein is the best I have had in the US. The Sherpa thali set can compete with some of the best Nepalese restaurants in New York and Texas. Definitely coming back. Thank you for existing.

This place was AMAZING. We met the owner Ram, and he was very friendly, hospitable, and even gave us a complimentary chicken steam momo (a sort of soup dumpling) for us to try! We also had the veg samosa, chicken tikka masala, and butter chicken. EVERYTHING was delicious and had lots of rich flavor. Definitely will be back for many more visits!

Food was good with the just the right amount of spice. The only item that was lackluster was the Tandoori chicken. Very small pieces and not much flavor. Naan was delicious tasted more like paratha but delicious nonetheless. Give them a try
