Come for Momos (Tibetan Knödel) on Wednesday and Saturday (11:30-1:30)! You're delicious! The spices are perfect and get the mix of spicy sauces gives you a kick, but don't let you sweat. I also recommend the Himalaya Chai. The coffee is also very strong and delicious.

The Nepali tea at this café was just as delicious as I remembered. I highly recommend this coffee shop to anyone who enjoys a good cup of coffee or is looking for a relaxing atmosphere. Sagaray and his staff were very friendly and welcoming, and the momos were absolutely delicious!

I'm here a couple times. the place has a large selection of coffee snacks. the shop itself is quite large and has plenty of seating. many board games, tables space for books, laptops etc. on every trip in them can watch numerous college children, the coffee do homework etc. I personally enjoyed the in front of them and the people who looked at them. downtown omaha has no lack of interesting personalities on the display. I would definitely recommend this coffee shop if they are in the opposite. my only complicity would be the back that parks in front. it has made me skip this place and go to another nearby coffeeshop.

One darn sexy cup of café. Friendly does not begin to describe the people who work here. They go above and beyond to learn your name and remember it along with your favorite drink order. it is definitely a coffee shop you can effectively work from if you still use paper and need to have something printed. There is space to sit outside and enjoy the weather and plenty of sitting inside as well. Take a minute or two to look over the menu. Their food offerings are definitely ethnic and definitely worth trying.

This place was the best part of my Omaha trip. The vibe is super chill and cozy. The staff were super friendly and made me feel very welcomed. I happened to be in town on a Wednesday so, of course, I had to try the momos for the first time. They were absolutely delicious. The filling was very well seasoned and the size were huge so I was stuffed after 8 of them. The best part though was the spicy sauce. I would have been glad to just buy the sauce in a bottle to put on everything. I also had a smoothie and some Himalayan soup. All good, all worth the treck in the snow. Wish we had one in Atlanta.

Cinnamon pound cake... nom nom nom. I would COME BACK to Omaha for this! I would have this shipped to me before I ordered Omaha Steaks online! Perfect fusion of sugar, almond, cinnamon and vanilla— it’s PERFECT. GREAT with coffee or solo!!

Good people, good food and atmosphere. My wife and I come often for the momos. She is from Kathmandu, and these are the best authentic Nepali momos we've found in the States. Very happy to have a place like this in town.

I have been here a couple times now. The place has a great staff wide selection of coffees snacks. The shop itself is quite large and has ample seating. Lots of board games, tables space for books, laptops etc. On any trip in you can observe numerous college kids sipping coffee doing homework etc. I personally enjoyed the view out front and the people watching from it. Downtown Omaha has no shortage of interesting personalities on display. I would definitely recommend this coffee shop if you're in the area. My only complaint would be the back in, parking out front. It's caused me to skip this place and go to another nearby coffee shop on more then one occasion.
