“ Their food is so good. This weekend we ordered chicken w broccoli (a bit spicey, but yummy), chicken fried rice, shrimp with lobster sauce and their delicious beef Momo's! It was a delicious feast. Nice sized portions. We're always happy when we get food from Om Wok! ”
“ We came here to try last year's momo champion during the 2024 12th annual momo crawl. These momos were larger than any of the others we had tried (24 places participated) and had a moist and flavorful meat filling. Definitely a top choice for momos. The restaurant is very small and intimate and I would love to return to try some other dishes. ”
“ The food is very good and inexpensive. I had a veg thenthuk and potato cheese spinach momo. The momos were cooked to just the right chewiness with a creamy filling. The noodle soup was warm and slightly tart, with chewy noodles and vegetables. The chili oil provided at the table was a nice accompaniment. There is very limited seating so taking out might be for the best when it is busy. ”
“ So this review is only for beef momos. And why? This place is winner of the infamous Momo Crawl, for a few years in a row! And after trying them, I can see why. I've tried versions from other restaurants and it's such a difference. Others can be dry, small, tough and chewy. Nothing worse than chewing on a Momo dumpling skin like it was gum. What is a Momo? A version of a dumpling from the Tibetan and Nepali cuisine. At Om Wok, the momos are huge pillowy bundles with juicy beef filling. Nice and flavorful. Watch out when you take a bite, the liquid from the filling may squirt out. I am saying this as juicy beef liquid, drips down my favorite shirt. A very small place with a couple of tables. Not much room to stand around. A very tight squeeze. A television is hung high on the wall, for your viewing pleasure. Super tiny place, so dining areas are also used for storage. Service is quick, friendly and efficient. Looking to try your first Momo? Come here! Start with the best first! ”
“ I only ordered take out food for pick up from here once. We were craving momos and ended up getting the beef momos. One plate which included about 8 large momos was $10. I'm used to having the smaller momos so when I had Om Wok's momos I was shocked at the size. They're huge and one plate is definitely shareable among two. They do have soup in them which tasted great. Their red sauce definitely gives a kick so be weary how much you put on your momos. The momos we had were good but definitely large and can be messy to eat haha. ”
“ This place has previously won the Momo Crawl competition and I can understand why. Their Momos are juicy and huge! I had the beef momos and surprisingly it has soup inside which was so flavorful. You should use the spicy sauce provided on the side, definitely not for the weak on the spice but is so addicting. $10 is such a steal for such big momos. This is a small store with some seating, cute place would come back again Friendly and attentive service, and it seems like it's family run? ”
“ This is a nice little hidden hole in the wall restaurant just off Roosevelt Blvd. Only enough seating for maybe 12 people and two tables outdoors. Food is delicious and at a great value. There's a reason why they won the Momo Crawl award twice. Will definitely come by again. ”
“ This review is for the Jackson Height location. I took some of my friends who were visiting New York to try tibetian food. We went there on a saturday night and this place is small with both indoor and outdoor seatings. Everytime i went there, the foods were very salty, but this time it was good. I am south asian so i eat spicy food, but it was very spicy for me. We got beef momo and i felt like it got way too big, but juicy. Some aloo dum ( potatoes), pork chilly with tingmo, beef shyabhaley and C. Momo. Service was fast, but we ordered a lot of food, so had to take it to go. ”
“ Pretty yummy comfort food in the heart of Jackson Heights. Went here w a few friends for lunch and it was a memorable experience. We got the momos of course and I wasn't expecting it to taste like a warm hug around my tongue. The fries had a kick to it as well as the rice. The seating itself is very limited however they provide take out as well. I will be coming back to try out what else they have to offer! ”
