I’ve eaten a lot of South / South East Asian food in my day so I’m pretty picky. I’m very happy I found this place, it stands out in what has overall been a rather bland and overpriced food scene. I’ve ordered quite a few different dishes and they’ve all been amazingly delicious and fresh. Portion sizes are hearty. The flavors and spices are perfect. Can’t wait to try more from their huge menu selection

I recently dined at Kunga kitchen, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The ambiance was warm and inviting, with subtle touches of Asian decor that set the tone perfectly. The menu offered an impressive variety of dishes, each bursting with authentic flavors. I tried the fried momo and the noodles, both of which were absolutely delicious. The ingredients tasted fresh, and the presentation was beautiful. The staff were attentive and friendly, always ready to recommend dishes or answer questions about the menu. They made sure everything was perfect throughout the meal. Overall, this is a must-visit spot for anyone who loves Asian cuisine. I’ll definitely be coming back soon!

The lemon coriander soup is refreshing and tastes exactly as described. The chicken dumplings were big and delicious, with the spicy sauce. These are really good Momo dumplings reminds me of the ones from Jackson Heights but bigger! My takeout order was ready very quick and pickup was a breeze. The interior was welcoming and service was friendly and excellent. Great spot for indo-fusion cuisine!

Kunga Kitchen is a Tibetan family-run restaurant offering a variety of affordable and appetizing dishes. I ordered the roti, chicken masala, and chicken biryani—the chicken was rich and buttery, while the rice was flavorful and delicious. The roti was prepared crispy yet not dry, making it a perfect complement to the meal. While I’m not familiar with the different regional styles of Indian cuisine, the owner shared that their dishes are inspired by Northern Nepalese flavors. Each dish is thoughtfully prepared with a balanced level of spice and flavor, making it a go-to place for a food adventure when you want to try something new. During my visit, I noticed many neighbors ordering takeout, which speaks to its popularity. It seems to be a satisfying spot for a comforting family meal.

Go! especially If you want Hakka Go! It’s small w/ 2-3 tables, takeout & nice people! We went for Hakka dishes (not Chinese or Indian) & these were top notch ‘Masala Wok’ worthy excellent delicious Hakka dishes: this is not a review for those looking for Indian or Chinese dishes but they have those also. I am only interested in the Hakka fusion: the Kai Chi wings are like the “Drums of Heaven!” from our long gone and sorely missed Masala Wok...:(. And the Hakka noodles, the coriander garlic chicken, and the Hakka chili chicken done in the dry style without too much extra sauce both harkened back to the delicious flavors of Masala Wok. Hope the quality of food stays high. (It’s a small take out so service & atmosphere don’t apply but it’s a nice clean place).

We have come here a few times. Twice as a party of 5; 2 kids age 8. Once as a party of 7; 2 kids age 8 and a toddler. Each time we have been met with nothing short of a fantastic dinning experience. The ambiance here is nice, and the service is top notch. What really shines here is the food. The first time we went full fusion, fried rice, papaya salad, vegetable dumplings, noodles, Manchurian. It was fantastic we wanted to come back to try the Indian section of the menu. Typically we expect fusion places to be only decent at Indian food because they have such a wide menu. We were pleasantly surprised at how phenomenal the Indian food here tasted. I can whole heartedly recommend the Palak Paneer and the Paneer tikka masala to anyone even the most voracious carnivore. They were beyond any of our expectations. We were so in shock we went back again with a huge party just to try it again. Honestly we have found a go-to place in NY. Which is great for us!

Stopped by after a friends recommendation - food is excellent , small place with few tables, clean , service is bit slow . It’s more of a takeout place. Everything was very tasty , except the veg dumplings.
