Nepal House

Like its sister location in the South Loop, Nepal House on Devon Avenue is a small sit-down restaurant serving Nepali and Indian food. We like this location a little more because the food is just as good (if not better) and it’s relatively mellow on weeknights. The menu has everything from Nepali BBQ to better-than-average North Indian staples—and you should opt for an order of not-too-doughy samosas and a plate of momos. There aren’t that many tables in the narrow dining room, but there are a few small booths that are perfect for a lone diner to settle in with a beer, a piping hot curry, and a basket of pillowy-soft garlic naan.
