Taste of the momos is great. I would definitely recommend this place. I used to travel to south Austin for having Everest food truck momo, but yesterday after having this momo, I would visit here rather going there. Ambience is kind of food truck park where there are many food trucks. I had fried momo and jhol momo, both were great. The person who served named Pepe was pretty good. He asked us if we need anything more while having the momo, also offered us water. He is very polite and kind person. Do visit and enjoy. Just a note they were first located in 5th Street but now they moved here last week as there were problems in downtown.

If you’re a momo lover and love Indian style street food with Chinese flavors especially like Manchuria 65 and stuff, this is the place for you. Loved spicy momo’s a lot. As we ordered several items but we repeated their spicy mom two times. It’s nicely crunchy and bomb with flavors and very good spice level as the name describes. Tried there regular momo as well, it’s definitely worth trying. As it’s located in heart of the city, the city vibes and atmosphere are amazing. Suggest in the evening as they only open for dinner and stuff. But do check timings before you go as this truck is only open for several days in the week.

The best chili momo in town! We always visited their downtown location and were stoked to find out they moved up north. Consistent flavor! We’ll be back

This spot is seriously so amazing. The food was so well spiced and flavorful. We put in our order and the woman who took it was so sweet and friendly. When we got the food everyone in my group was taken back because the food was so good. It’s comforting, warm and flavorful. I suggest trying everything on the menu. We got the Jhol momo and the chili momo. The chili momo was the perfect amount of spice that didn’t burn your mouth for too long. Everything was so well balanced. We loved the food so much we put in a second order. I definitely recommend coming here if you’re visiting Austin. I’ll be coming back here the next time I’m in Austin!

Craving some MoMo's?? Look no further. Found my new favorite spot in the heart of downtown. Compliments to the chef , please, please, please keep this taste consistent. Fiery momos sauce, and the jhol momo was on point. Best wishes. - a random momo lover
