Chicken Jhol Momo a must try, flavourful and very tasty. Everything was good but the man on the front desk was not as we expected.( was arrogant and tried to argue with us). My friend was just having fun by joking and clicking a photo, my friend was trying to be friendly but the man didn't look happy. Other wise our visit was good.

Cockroach in my dish (see photo)... Discovering a dead baby cockroach in the corner of my meal was beyond disturbing. The presence of a baby cockroach suggests a breeding population that is likely entrenched and probably a widespread infestation — the result of ongoing neglect of a clear pest problem. It's hard to imagine they weren't well aware of this.

Technically, I ordered this dish from Proud Vegan, which is essentially a front for Mt Everest — they share the same kitchen and facilities. A glance at their DineSafe records shows a clear pattern of infractions that speaks to a history of poor food safety practices.

As well, the fact that 'Proud Vegan' operates out of a kitchen also preparing meat dishes is a significant concern. This isn't about personal dietary preferences; but transparency and honesty in how a business presents itself to its customers. Failure to disclose this information is deceptive and undermines the trust diners place in them. This is an important detail that many vegans would want to know.

In posting this review, I expect the standard “we are investigating” response from the owner; however, given their record, such claims seem to be empty damage control rather than a commitment to real change. I urge fellow diners to avoid this restaurant (Mt Everest and Proud Vegan — same place) at all costs. Their kitchen just isn’t sanitary and their “investigating” the matter is an empty promise (I’m not the first to voice this complaint).

Great service and amazing food! The Khasi Ko Maasu is a MUST try! Went really well with the Piyazi Kulcha naan!

Amazing food, good service and generally great experience. We got the non veg bohjan special. It comes with a couple of appetizers, naan, basmati rice, two curry dishes (kahdi chicken and butter paneer) and a mix of tandoori and two other meat on a sizzling place and dessert at the end. (~$65 with tip and tax). The khadi chicken curry dish is as exceptionally tasty. Highly recommended.

I visited this place for dinner with my family to try nepali food.
Good:
1. Variety of nepali food options
2. Fair ambience
3. Quick service
4. Polite and welcoming staff
5. Genuine pricing.
6. Nice presentation of dishes

Not so good:
1. They don't serve salt and pepper
2. Food taste:
- Tandoori momos: no salt, filling of momos were tasteless
- veg soup: tasty
- malai kofta: tasteless, no salt and gravy was like water with some spices
- garlic naan and roti: super tasty
- Aloo Tama and Bodi: tasteless, no salt, no spices

Overall, not worth for 2nd visit.
