Himalayan Sherpa Kitchen sits on Harrison Street, a short walk from the Clinton Blue Line stop, serving a menu that spans Nepalese, Tibetan, Sherpa, and Indian cooking. All meats are Zabiha Halal certified, prepared to Islamic dietary standards.
Momos anchor the menu, including the hot-and-spicy C-Momo version, alongside Mustange Aloo tossed with Sichuan pepper and chili flakes, and Tibetan shavale — empanada-style pastries stuffed with minced chicken and peas. Biryani comes with a choice of protein, and Newari and Nepalese dishes like kwati daal and Manange Khasi Ko Masu sit alongside more familiar Indian plates such as palak paneer, chana masala, and tandoori chicken.
The restaurant operates as BYOB. Regulars point to the momos in particular, along with attentive service, as reasons this Near West Side spot has built a following as a bit of a hidden gem.
