Reviews

First time trying this place. Had high hopes seeing the reviews but was very disappointed.  Chicken momos were tasteless, hard and cold. The meat filling had dirt like texture inside which made it difficult to chew  Veg noodles were blah too. Tasteless  The order took forever to come on a weekday early  evening when it was all empty.  Wouldn’t recommend it.

In A Nutshell:  -It's funny to write this review about Urban Momo b/c I lived in SJ for years and this was the 2nd restaurant to open up in this same stall, but I never got around to trying it until a recent visit back home. -I kick myself in the arse now b/c damn their food is really good. -There are only 3 restaurants left Phonemenal, Market Beer Company and Pizza Bocca Lupo when San Pedro Market originally opened up back in 2010, but Urban Momo should be added to that group since they are the 2nd longest lasting restaurant there. -I ordered a bunch of things such as their Simosas, Naan & Spicy Tandori Chicken. -Everything was so mouth-watering good, especially the Tandori Spicy Chicken. -For around $20 something bucks you can get a very large portion of delicious finger licking chicken. -It's a great deal, very healthy too.  Overall, if you are in the mood for Nepalese/Indian food, this is the place to get some!

Delicious food & a local San Jose favorite! Tried the chicken curry, aloo gobi, & fried rice with naan - would highly recommend all these dishes. This comes with a big thanks from our NYU student film cast & crew! Definitely a spot worth checking out.Food: 5/5

I ordered chicken biryani, veg noodles and garlic noodles. And none of the dishes were worth eating! Found it pretty tasteless! Do not recommend this restaurant.Food: 1/5

I had chiken biryani,  I liked the taste. The rice was spicy and flavorful and the chicken was well marinated and soft.  On another visit I tried their mixed Shezwan fried rice, the fried rice was good but they one small container of the Shezwan sauce which is not sufficient for the full dish. The fried rice had a good combination of veggies,  eggs and chicken.

This place is located inside San Pedro square market. Lovely atmosphere. We ordered Paneer momos, Veg chowmein, some fries and Manchurian. Fries were super crispy and delicious. Veg chowmein was okay. Manchurian was my favorite. We went pretty early there and still it took more than half an hour.Food: 3/5

Delicious food! We tried their veg chowmein and paneer momo and loved it. Located inside San Pedro square, this place gets super busy so if you are someone who doesn’t like to wait for food, then you may get disappointed with the service. They get a lot of takeout orders too, so it takes time for your order to arrive so go in early if you plan to eat here.

Food was good, we ordered veg paneer momos along with veg chowmin. I wish they provided with chili hot sauce along with the one they have it on the side. chowmin was good but just not spicy enough for my taste buds. Quality and quantity was good. Since it was Friday night and they were dealing with a lot of orders - it took a while to get the order so expect a wait if you are going there during evening on weekends.  This is located in San Pedro square so it was super lively!  Vegetarian options: Good vegetarian options. They also have vegan options

We've ordered from this place off DoorDash in the past and we've loved it. This time however, we had the worst experience. We ordered and the delivery time was showing 51-60 mins which is fine. It's the weekend. The dasher got to our place about 20 mins past the hour quoted.  He came bearing an order for a "Brent" with shrimp and pork something. I let the dasher know that we are vegetarian and can't take the order. He said he confirmed with the restaurant multiple times that this was the order and they said yes. The dasher was very helpful and offered to drive back to the restaurant and grab our food. He came back after about 45 minutes and dropped off our order. When we went to eat, it was yet another wrong order. We were hungry and irritated at this point so we just raised a dash request but I'm so disappointed. I hate wasting food and after almost 3 hrs, we still got the wrong food.  We had ordered 2 Veg Chow Mein and 1 Gobi Manchurian. We instead got 1 Veg Chow Mein, 1 Chicken Chow Mein, and 1 Gobi Manchurian.  The taste was on a whole another level. Chow mein was not as it usually is. Gobi Manchurian got all soggy and was so spicy that I literally got a heartburn after a bite. I felt like my throat was on fire. Very frustrating and so disappointed.

So we tried to spread the love and order from a place other than our now regular joint - the Momo Grill. And we were not disappointed with Urban Momo.  The delivery through DoorDash did take a wee bit longer, but the food was packed and delivered safely.  The steamed Chicken Momo were well made succulent and freshly prepared and the sauces with them were very tasty.  But we were blown away with the quality of the Chicken Chow Mein. Fresh veggies and lots of them, now too oily or spicy noodles and check full of chicken slivers made this a delectable dish.  We will be back from more of the Chow Mein and try their other offerings as well!
