The menu at Mission Curry House is lengthier than Miley Cyrus’s discography, so expect to find something for everyone. You can feast on fragrant biryani overflowing with tender lamb and a spread of rich curries, while your friend takes down plump Nepalese momos stuffed with chicken or vegetables, and golden-brown dosas as big as a child’s baseball bat. But you’ll want to share it all anyway, including the impressive naan stuffed with paneer or spinach, or shredded coconut, raisins, cashews, and cherry. You could order enough to feed your table three times over without ever feeling rushed, which is why this spot is our go-to for long lunches with coworkers or spur-of-the-moment group dinners.
