3 months agoThe food was good overall, although I’m not a huge fan of spicy food and a lot of the menu had a bit of a kick. That’s just personal taste though. We went during the NYC snowstorm and the staff were really friendly and welcoming, clearly putting in a lot of effort even when many other places were closed.

3 months agoIf you want to experience traditional Nepali decor, this place is a must visit, they’ve absolutely nailed the aesthetics. While it isn’t the most spacious restaurant, it’s comfortable enough. Weekends can get quite busy, so a reservation is recommended. I really enjoyed the overall vibe, immaculate interiors, friendly service, and live music that adds to the atmosphere. But as a foodie, I felt the food could’ve been better. The presentation doesn’t quite make up for the lack of depth in flavor, just my personal take. That said their cocktails are excellent and definitely worth trying. Overall, a good experience.

3 months agoNice atmosphere with good live music, which made the experience enjoyable. The momo and chowmein were tasty and definitely recommended. Unfortunately, the “Masu Jindabaad” platter was a big letdown. Although it looks good in the picture attached, the portion size was way too small for a $50 platter and not worth for the price. I would not recommend ordering this platter. Overall, good place for ambiance and select dishes, but skip the Masu Jindabaad platter.

3 months agoThe food was really good. The live music was fun and the place looked nice, all positives there. But I had to give 1 star because they automatically added 18% gratuity for just three of us. Not sure if that’s a NYC thing, but I haven’t seen it anywhere else.

4 months agoSuch a great place for Nepali food. The ambience is beautiful , the drinks are amazing, and everything is presented so well. Definitely worth a visit. Ishwor dai’s drinks are honestly amazing the best I’ve had in New York City and anywhere else.

5 months agoWalking into this restaurant feels like stepping into a little corner of Nepal. The cozy décor, warm lighting, and inviting atmosphere create a sense of comfort that immediately transports you, almost like being in a Himalayan teahouse. Sadly, the food did not match the charm of the setting. The flavors were underwhelming, and for the high prices charged, the quality felt disappointing. It left me wishing the dishes carried the same authenticity and warmth as the ambiance. Overall, the restaurant is a lovely, cozy place that captures the spirit of Nepal in its atmosphere. But if you’re seeking truly satisfying food at a fair price, the experience may fall short.

6 months agoI was very excited to see a Himalayan spot opening up on this side of Elmhurst because I felt there was a need for more diverse food anyways. The exterior is very eye-catching especially with all of the decorations and colors the owners put effort into. The interior is just wow, different colors - lots of greens, purple & brown. The seating and tables are very pretty and the lighting is perfect. I haven’t tried too much food here, but so far I have had the: Buff chow mein, Chatamari Set (Nepalese style folded pizza with spiced meats and vegetables), Kathmandu Ko Faarzi Jhoi Momo Cha (Nepalese style dumplings with flavorful fillings served with special tangy sauce) and Baudha Ko Faarzi Cheu Momo (steamed momo with flavorful juicy buttery fillings served with 2 different sauces). There’s a lot of interesting aromatics in the food and their momo’s are delicious! I can’t eat much spicy foods, so I chose the ones that were mild or not spicy. The bar menu had an assortment of drinks and cocktails. I’ve tried a few of the cocktails at Faarzi and they are on point. Overall, a pleasant experience if you’re looking for a different type of cuisine and atmosphere. The staff here are very nice & welcoming. The music is also very relaxing and when you’re here, you forget you’re even in NYC.
