Little Tibet Restaurant

Cute place to try Momo’s. We had the chicken and beef, the latter ones being our favourite. Service with a smile

Absolutely the best Hakka place in downtown tdot. This is true hakka cuisine with its abundance of garlic, gravy, and spices in every dish. Recommendations for first visit or intro to Hakka food: Hot and Sour soup, Chilli chicken with gravy I have tried the chilli dishes, soups, fried rices, momos, and manchurian dishes. All are authentic and exactly how Chinese food would be made in Tamil Nadu. The staff here are excellent. The chef is open to special requests, and after delivering special requests, he will come out of the kitchen to check on whether his work is satisfactory after the guests have tasted. This is the sign of a chef who is conscious of quality. I once asked the chef to amp up the spice level to the practical limits and he accommodated my request and delivered tasty results and he checked up on me. This is why this is my top spot for Hakka in Tdot. Their home made chilli garlic condiment is very flammable and you'll not find something like it at other Hakka places The food is always quick, as Hakka food should be. I have never been disappointed by this place. They are consistent in quality. The interior is simple but tidy and pleasant. The location on Queen-Jameson is also prime and makes this place easy to get to.

A good Tibetan restaurant located in Parkdale area. The service is prompt and courteous. The food is decent but could be better, especially the Hakka Manchurian. Udon noodles are good here. If they put in a bit of focus on the quality of food this restaurant could be one of the best in the area. Overall a good place!

Momos were great but everything apart was just okay. The staff were friendly and welcoming

Excellent service and good food! Ordered a ton of food and it was still easy on the wallet. Recommend this place for a chill late night eat 👍🏼

Follow @bredgyeats for more food posts! Pork Fried Momo - Crispy skin with a juicy pork filling inside, more tender texture with scallions inside as well, juice also flows out of the wrapper. Wrapper is somewhat thin, thinner than Momo Cafe, and is quite crisp but overall is kinda oily and greasy. Comes with a mild, sesame sauce that's slightly tangy, and some chilli oil. 10 pcs.

literally the best Restaurant that i ever went. The foods has homely taste, it felt like taste of my home country Nepal. thank you Little Tibet Restaurant for this amazing restaurant experience. 😄❤️

Very poor customer service. Server doesn’t know what’s the special dish served over there. No any knowledge of food served. Asked what was jhol of jholmomo made of! Food came on the table but we didn’t know the answer. I have never seen any server asking customer to do their job. You gotta learn and do your own job, It was so damn cold inside! It was an embarrassing experience because we had our non~nepali friends with us.

This Tibetan restaurant has a prominent picture of the Dalai Lama so you know they are (probably) really Tibetans. The food is ok. 16 Then-Thuk with beef (17 Gya-Thuk has the same soup but a different noodle) tasted like a homemade noodle soup. 21 Little Tibet Special Phing-Sha was interesting. It tasted nourishing. It was nice but my dining partner thought it needed salt & she's very sensitive to salt. Curiously, it tasted like nonya chap chye. Pork pan fried momos had thicker skin than gyozas. Their online menu is outdated - they don't have sets with ting mo anymore.

Ordered veggie and beef momos today. Pros: beef momos are dense. Likely lean ground beef vs regular. Veggies weee made out of a spinach wrapper. And they are stuffed full! Both were substantial sized momos. 10 in an order. Cons: a bit more expensive than other places Veggie was cabbage, carrots I think potatoes. So nothing too exciting in the filling except the wrapper! I think the beef here is better than the veggie. Their sauce is good, nothing too different. So A-OK

Wasn't intending on going here originally, but the places we were originally going (Sugo) had a 1.5 hour wait. This place blew away all expectations. So to be honest we'd never had Tibetan food before so didn't know what to expect. For appetizers we had the beef patties. Compared to traditional Jamaican patties the beef was better (minced not ground), the pastry was thicker, and fluffier vs flaky, and there was a nice hot sauce that came with them. For entrees we had the beef curry on rice and chili chicken on rice. Compared to really good beef curries at Chinese restauraunts, this was on point (not worse) but not better. For the chili chicken, I try chili chicken anywhere I go. I had a go-to spot that very few places can hold a candle too, but to be honest this was possibly the best chili chicken I've ever had. We ordered the chili chicken dry, there was no option to get it on fried rice but the moistness, the flavor, and the temperature of the chili chicken was supreme.

In the Queen West area looking for delicious Tibetan eats and came across Little Tibet. Had read favourable reviews in the past and was looking forward to a good meal. Wish I could comment on their food but I never made beyond their patio entrance. Looked like the cook and servers were hanging out on the patio...couldn't get past the grunts we received when we asked if they were open...no one moved to let us into the restaurant. Not a warm welcome at all. Lucky for us that there are so many other good options within walking distance.

I've been going here for a few years now (well, before the Pandemic and after things got better) and I have to say it's one of my favourite restaurants in the city. Very authentic, lovely staff and get what you pay for. HUGE portions, amazing taste and just incredibly filling and tasty. If you're looking for a local TO restaurant to support please, please consider going here. It's worth it. Can't wait to go back!! Glad to see you made it through the pandemic.

Its a good restaurant that I would rate 4.5 good food and yummy dumplings, good service, good prices, good wait time, a great amount of people and a pretty good location. Kind people. I recommend that you go to this restaurant when you have time.

Higher prices, very large menu (including alcohol), decent customer service, quality of food mostly good. Several friends and I decided to try a new Tibetan restaurant while we were in the area, so we ended up here. Based on what I ordered, the soup that I got tasted like hot & sour soup, while it was supposed to be a specialty soup having a bit of a different taste. I ordered chicken momos which cost $1 less than the beef ones and $1 more than the vegetable ones, yet they seemed to be the smallest compared to the other two varieties, which my friends ordered. The mango lassi that I ordered had a mostly icy texture, so it seems that the ice that they added to it wasn't completely blended. This place closed at 10 P.M., yet they let my friends and I stay there to finish up past closing time without pushing us to get going. All-in-all, I mostly liked this place, even though comparing it to the usual Tibetan restaurant I go to in the area, while this one had a way way bigger menu, I prefer the mango lassi at my usual spot, as well as their large soups (although the size is respective to the price between the two places, so I'm not complaining about that here), as well as the consistent sizes and pricing across all of the momos (all flavours the same price and size at my usual Tibetan restaurant unlike at this one).

Heard about great Tibetan food but never tried it until I went to Little Tibet restaurant. Their service was superb, really quick and friendly. The waitress was quick to bring out the water and even the complimentary freshly made rice chips. We ordered the chilli chicken, momos and a Tibetan curry dish with sauce. The chilli chicken was amazeballs, never had better. It was a dry chilli chicken, but of course still had sauce on it. The chicken was still crispy, even with the sauce. I like that it was served with rice (as opposed to having to order rice in addition). The momos were freshly made and tasted amazing. It was doughy (in a good way) and had a meat filling that was really juicy.

This is an excellent eatery in the "Little Tibet" neighborhood near Parkdale. My friend and I received free orange juice when they had run out of free tea, and were very happy with the quality and price point of the food we got. I had tofu eggplant and some kind of other vegetable for $9 (Canadian dollars so like $7.2 USD at that time), and it was a substantial portion with a delicious taste. We had outdoor seating which was great; there was a short delay in getting the food, but the attitude of the staff was so good in other respects that I won't take off points for that. (EDIT: I want to note that the establishment reached out to me with a very gracious and receptive reply to this review after it was initially posted, which is a big credit to them in my opinion!) It turned out I had arrived for dinner on opening day; the quality of the service and food was such a success that I did not notice that this was not already a very well-established restaurant! This is a solid establishment that offers a great menu that will give you a "Little Tibet" experience worth having. We basically walked an hour across town with the hopes of seeing what "Little Tibet" was all about and we weren't disappointed. If you're coming from the east, try coming down through Kensington Market and Dundas St West, and checking out the Trinity Bellwoods Park on the way. Toronto is an awesome city and this place is one to enjoy!

Great food to eat Indian styled momos. " Malai momos"- a must try dish. A lot of variety & happy to help staffs.

I'm only deducting a star because there is a lack of momos. If however you are into Tibetan dining and not too hung up on the momo experience and would like to dabble further than this is a great place to eat. The many food options (especially for vegans) is something to behold. The seasoning and flavours are something to marvel at as they are truly out of this world. The staff have always been super friendly and helpful. If you are looking to try Tibetan food or are looking for a new taste you should definitely check out Little Tibet.

Excellent service. They set us up in the patio even though it was closed because we had our dog. He also got boiled noodles - no charge. Besides the food was just tasty. Will gladly be back.

This place is amazing. A friend and I stumbled upon it by accident last week and couldn't be happier. We've already come back. Great price point, friendly staff and the Momos couldn't be better !!

I ordered this on Uber Eats and it was really good. I love momos and was dying to try this place. I ordered 3 different types. I ordered steamed beef momos, beef chilli momos (2thumbs up) and the veg butter chicken momos. The 2 beef momo orders were great.....i didn't love the butter chicken momos.....it was over kill for me. I can't wait to try the other choices.

Now that it's freezing outside my cravings for spicy comfort food has begun. Tibetan food was all I wanted but I decided to try a new place other than my usual. Little Tibet restaurant is a new one and there was some tables occupied when we walked by it, which was a good sign so we decided to go there. The restaurant is very simply decorated, with a cozy and brightly lit interior. The server was very friendly and attentive. To my disappointment they did not have my go-to, which is the thali. So we decided to first order the vegetable momo's as usual. Then I ordered the prawn chilli, which was made in a chilli garlic sauce and served with rice. My friend ordered the sweet and spicy tofu and a side of tingmo. While we waited we got a basket of complimentary fried crackers/chips (wasn't really sure what they were, but they were good). The momo's arrived first with hot sauce and pickles. Now the momo's were a disappointment. The stuffing was very boring and was nothing in comparison to what we have had at other locations. Our mains were served soon after. Portion sizes were great, enough for one person. My prawns were really flavourful and spicy. It definitely hit the spot. The tofu was also good, according to my friend. However, he said he preferred the tofu he usually gets from our usual Himalayan Kitchen. Prices were comparable to the other establishments around. Overall, I would definitely come here again for the prawns and friendly service, but not for vegetarian momo's.

Very clean restaurant and it has outdoor seating. Service is friendly. Their veggie momos are unique (the dough is green). They're really good, and their hot sauce is awesome. My boyfriend thought his chicken chilli was a bit on the oily side, but it was okay.

First Tibetan I have tried in the city. The restaurant is small, but very clean. Dishes are very reasonably priced and portion sizes are decent. They offer a variety of different dishes, with their Momos being a must try. Great place for a chilly day in the city.

My first visit to Little Tibet was on a cold February evening when it was almost empty. I had a nice conversation with the owner who told about his 5-star chef from India and some Tibetan traditions. My second visit was this past Friday evening when it was almost full. The service was still fast and friendly, and I got to speak to the owner again while I paid my bill. The restaurant seats about 40 people with exposed brick (which turned out to be wallpaper), large windows and a brown decor, but did not include many of the usual Tibetan flags or pictures. There is a small bar at the back, and the washroom was nice and clean. There is a tv that shows CP24, and there was music quietly playing in the background this time. The menu is quite extensive, including pretty much every dish I have had at other Tibetan restaurants along with lots of Indian choices, mostly $10-13 each. The first time, I had the Phing-Sha: a bowl of bean thread noodles, beef, potato and black mushrooms in gravy, served with both rice and tingmo (2 steamed buns). There was a little bit of everything, and it was all delicious. Most of their drinks are cheap, but the bartender had not yet arrived, so I just had a $4 Budweiser. My total bill was only $18, including a free cup of butter tea. The owner also suggested the Fish Fry ($13) as one of their specialties, so that is what I had on my second visit. The dish is pieces of battered and fried fish served dry with rice. While the fish was very tasty and the rice was a lot, the lack of sauce or gravy left the rice a little bland. Each meal was preceded by a bowl of shrimp chips, and the butter tea was free again. Overall, another great addition to the list of Tibetan restaurants to choose from in Parkdale, and I will definitely be back.

Located in the "L" of a small plaza that faces onto Queen Street the place is really a big box with windows looking out to Queen Street and to the parking lot of the plaza. Behind all the tables out front is a bar in the back and behind that the kitchen. The decor featured brick walled wallpaper and lots of wood that really didn't speak to any Tibetan decor. The menu featured all the food expected from a Tibetan place and I ordered some ting mo and the chilli fish in gravy while my friend had one of their beef specials and a coriander soup. The service was attentive and polite and the amount of food fit the price. While the food was more fragrant and subtle and not as hot as I am used to it was still good enough to warrant a future visit.

Was shocked to get soups thick with cornstarch, soya and chilli sauce masquerading as hot and sour and manchow soup! Was so disappointed with the food (chicken fried rice) hardly had any chicken in it, sprinkled with half frozen peas ) and chilli chicken was little better than the rest. After the quality food we had ordered last September from this place, this time it was such a disappointment! Dont waste your money!

Unassuming little restaurant in a slightly unpleasant area with really good food. We had momos, pork, eggplant and fish dishes and all had varying degrees of spicy-ness. The condiments like the hot sauce and garlic vinegar were outstanding compliments to the food. Desserts were really basic, but everything was so cheap and plentiful. I'd go back again!

I would go back to this restaurant any day!! My partner and I got the veggie udon noodles and the sizzling sweet and sour chicken, and it was definitely sizzlin!! It was a great price and after a long walk down queen street west, a $4 Canadian beer was the perfect fit. The owner way very very friendly and appreciative of our presence!! Love love love

The food here is amazing. I had a veggie gyathuk and a serving of tingmo and they were both so delicious and fresh. Not to mention it's crazy cheap for super generous portions; my boyfriend and I paid about 20 bucks in total and we could barely finish half of what was on our plates. It took a little while for our food to come out, but for how delicious it was, and how personable and attentive our server was, it was pretty easy to forgive and forget! 5/5, will absolutely eat here again.

Go to Tashi Delek instead! I had a meeting in Parkdale and wanted to scout out a nice Tibetan restaurant for when I have friends visiting next month. This place is relatively new and looks very nice/clean, so I tried it. It was kind of early, so I was the only customer. I ordered a noodle and beef dish. And that is what I got, spaghetti noodles in a red sauce, with a few small pieces of fatty beef. So the dish was +95% spaghetti noodles, for 10 bucks! The taste of the sauce was really yucky, made somewhat better by putting on a lot of hot sauce. I didn't finish it. Even tho I was the ONLY customer, and there seemed to be 4-5 people working there, they never came back to my table after giving me the noodle dish. Eventually I went up to the bar to pay. I guess that is how this restaurant works, maybe they could actually tell customers that. So this place looks a lot cleaner and newer that other restaurants in the area, but the food and service suck. For my money I will just keep going back to Tashi Delek, a hole in the wall with amazing Tibetan food!

We live so close to Little Tibet and can't believe it took us one year to try it out! We have never had Tibetan food before apart from momos, we ordered beef momo, spicy chicken wings and the Shap-Ta with grace (server recommended this dish). I thoroughly enjoyed every dish and like that the dishes that were marked spicy were spicy spicy! Will definitely be back again

There ARE vegan options outside of "vegandale" (Parkdale!) and this place has some of the absolute best. Little Tibet has quickly become one of our favourite spots on Queen West for Tibetan food when we aren't necessarily craving momos. Highly recommend the Hot and Spicy Tofu as a starter. Chewy, meaty and spicy/sweet triangles of deliciousness! The Vegetable Manchurian is an authentic hakka dish made of these croquettes, for lack of a better word, in a mildly spicy sauce and served with steamed rice. VERY tasty! Another superb dish is the Tofu, Broccoli and Eggplant, which by the name does not sound at all exciting. In fact, the very helpful server actually suggested it as we passed over it initially. Well let me tell you, this is a delicious flavour explosion! The eggplant is cooked to perfection, broccoli crisp but not TOO crisp, and the tofu is similar to that of the Hot and Spicy as mentioned earlier. Crazy good, and also served with steamed rice. There was only one dish on the menu that I wasn't wowed by, and that was the Mixed Market Vegetables. It was just not as flavourful as other options, but I won't hold that against them because their menu is wonderful. Thanks, Little Tibet for your Veg options and for filling our bellies with delicious and healthy food!

Tried this place for the first time the other day for lunch and it was great! Had veggie & chicken Momos, Thein-Tuk & Shaptak. Everything was fresh tasting & delicious, good size servings as well. Price is also pretty decent, it ended up being about $40 for all of that (which filled up 3 adults). The super sweet chef also prepared a special plate of honey chicken wings and curly fries as a treat for my nephew who LOVED them. (I stole a bite too, they were bomb.)
