What a gem! If you live in Albany, have a hankering for authentic Nepalese food, and don't feel like driving to the next closest options in Cooperstown or Poughkeepsie, you're in luck because Mystic Momo will satisfy your craving! Situated in a small but spotless and brightly lit space opposite Townsend Park, this chef-owned spot has limited kitchen space, but still manages to turn out delicious momos (dumplings) and noodle dishes that equals, if not exceeds, the food in other Nepalese restaurants we have tried. As other reviewers note, it may take a while for your food to arrive after you order: but that's because each dish is made fresh...prepared, assembled & cooked on the spot. We had steamed pork momos, chili chicken momos, and vegetable lo mein that were literally perfect. If you don't have a hankering for Nepalese food, after trying Mystic Momo you almost certainly will be subjected to such cravings in the future. Less

We loved everything we had. Specially the chowmein. The momos we had were great too. Our favorite was jhol momo, probably because it was a cold day and the warmth and spice in the soup was a great combo. Must try the milk tea! The staff was just really sweet. Will be back for sure. Less
