Service was great. Ambiance is small and intimate. Wanted to try something new and found a Tibetan cafe. I loved the lentil soup and the chicken Momos. I can't wait to try some more things from this place.

YUM. Everything was so, so delicious. All the momo types are incredible. The spicy "dry" noodles are great too. We'll be back ASAP. (Cash only - there's an ATM in the bodega next door.)

Must try! Nice hole in a wall gem where it is hidden from everything. Everything I ordered were pretty on point. There's not a lot of tibetan food places in brooklyn. I like that they have assorted momos so i'm not committed to just 1 flavor.

Decided to give this spot a second try last weekend, after feeling unimpressed with its takeout over 2 years ago. I'm glad we did - you just need to know what to order, especially as an Asian-American with a bias and expectation towards other Asian cuisines. Tibetan food seems to be a bit more bland compared to the food I'm used to and enjoy (Chinese, Thai, Indian, etc.) but since Cafe Tibet is such a highly rated spot in this area, I knew I had to give it another shot. Last time, we messed up on the momos. Granted, getting takeout also added to the mediocre experience vs. dining in this time around. I would not recommend the mustang spicy momos - I remember the skin being too thick and they were drenched in a bland hot sauce... just meh. This time, we got the combo momos (not spicy; just regularly steamed I believe) and they were much, much better. We weren't a fan of the veggie ones but wow the beef and chicken ones were so good! The beef ones even had a bit of broth inside - very juicy and similar to a Chinese-style soup dumpling. We also tried the house specialty, thali w/ lamb and tingmo, which was also pretty good. It's basically the Tibetan version of the Japanese bento box - you get a variety of food on a tray. The tingmo (steamed bun) and lamb combo was tasty and homey. Definitely worth the try. It was a cold day so my partner wanted to try the thukpa (egg noodle soup) with chicken. As expected, the flavor was on the light side - nothing special at all so can be skipped, BUT a great "chicken noodle soup" for anyone who may be feeling under the weather. Lastly, we had the chicken chilli, which indeed had a nice kick to it. Still leaning on the bland, lacking-in-depth side, the spice makes it a decent protein if you're looking for one. I think it's worth a one-time try but not sure if I'd reorder. We also had a cup of chai each and those were incredible. One of the best cups of chai I've had - super legit. I'd come back for the chai alone, and the beef & chicken momos. May sound a bit basic, but stick to those for a guaranteed satisfactory meal. Curious about the garlic noodles and cold noodles.
