Khaja Ghar has the best mo mos that I have ever tasted, hands down. I went with the pork on this visit. They were served in a delicious brothy gravy. For my main I went with the lamb korma. For a medium heat it had me sweating. It tasted amazing though! When I told the owner that it tasted like it had been simmering for hours, surprisingly, he said it only took about 15 minutes to whip up. Service is friendly and excellent here, but despite having "bar" in the restaurant name they don't serve alcohol. This was a bit of a bummer because there's nothing better than washing down some spicy food with an icy cold beer. If you appreciate excellent Nepalese food you've got check this place out! You won't be disappointed.

I met Gwen W here for a Saturday lunch and we were the first ones in the dining room. The server was lovely and answered our questions. We shared the chicken momos, but with the sauce on the side. Delish. I got my fav Navarattan Korma to go and it was really tasty the next day. It's directly across the street from Victor's Taco Shop (shameless plug).

Anna suggested this restaurant for a lunch meetup new to us both. Booths and tables fill up the room. We were the first, and only patrons, on a Saturday for lunch. Service was very friendly with a smile. The gal continued to peek her head around to gauge our needs throughout our meal. The menu is nicely divided and easy to read with dish descriptions. Several things caught my eye and deserve return visits. We decided to split an order of the chicken momo (not jhol) which comes with the spicy dipping sauce is on the side. Heads up: Spice level here is 0-10, not 5, so you have more of a range to choose from. I also ordered their Chicken Korma, level 2, to go. Yes, I confirm and agree that Khaja's momos are indeed better than others in Columbus I've tried in both the Morse Rd/161 and Reynoldsburg areas. Shared chicken momos (sauce on side), and these were favored more than others with delicious herbs and spices. Worth the five stars alone. Highly recommend! Here's the bummer: Later that afternoon, I completely lost my sense of taste and smell. Fighting a what seemed like seasonal head cold, and a negative covid test, I was without the senses for the foreseeable future. I kept the packaged Korma in the fridge as long as possible, but had to heat and eat so it wouldn't spoil. Thus, I can't comment on the dish's flavors. The chicken was very tender, a fantastic bonus. My mother tried the dish and thought it was very good; she was positive I'd enjoy the flavors. It's so weird eating without those two main senses. So, I'll absolutely return to Khaja! The momos alone were a delicious meal in themselves. Based on other Yelp pictures, there's many other tempting items worth a try.

We chose this location over another restaurant in worthington because we prefer more of a hole-in-the wall family vibe. Restaurant was clean and smelled of spices coming from the kitchen. I'm learning more about different dishes to try at Nepali restaurants, which seem to be reflective of the growing community. Once everyone was seated, the server promptly took our order and answered questions about preferences for this or that dish. The pork momo jhol and biryani was great. It is my understanding the jhol momo has the soup underneath the dumplings and I did prefer these momo over the ones served with the mixed combo platter. Spice level is 1-10. I didn't think the 8 was too bad but it was more temperature hot mixed with the spice and it cooled down after. I tried the other dishes and noodles aren't my preference, otherwise the mixed combo would have been what I ordered. The chatpati is super flavorful but puffed rice could have been a little crispier but maybe it's like that since it's mixed with the herbs and seasoning? I've been trying to order more Nepali dishes over Indian, minus this biryani. Unfortunately, I couldn't say what was different in this dish vs. others I've had. We paid at the counter when we requested the checks to be split.

Authnetic cuisine had nothing but tastey flavorful goodness to try, not for the fancy, but 10/10 for the flavors- homemade deliciousness-lamb byrani, spicy cucumber salad, garlic naan,veggie curry w cashew, ginger, no tomato..very nice will be back to try much mlre

The outside has a lot to be desired honestly but as soon as you walk inside, it is really nice. We loved the momo's. The sauce was amazing, the momo's were so good. We also ordered goat sekuwa and it was soo good. Tender and juicy and delicious. The perfect amount of spice. (We got a five when they asked us the spice level). We also got chicken curry which was good but not quite as good as the other items. We got chai too. If you like Nepalese and Indian food, you will love this place.

I've liked Nepali food since I stumbled on a place in Madison 15 or 20 years ago. We have several in town now, all really good. This one was handy today, and grabbed my attention. It's small, in a slightly scruffy building that probably used to be a fast food place. Clean and comfy though. Walked in and was welcomed by the staff and the customers. The menu is huge, and there were many things I wanted. I got momos because I love them and theirs get good reviews, and pakoda (pakora) because I love that too. The aromas coming from the kitchen, and other tables, were amazing. Veggie pakoda came out first, and was fantastic. Deep fried veggie goodness. Mild, but came with a moderately spicy sauce. So so good. I had to stop myself from eating them all, to save room for the main course. And man, the pork jhol momos were fantastic. Better than Momo Ghar? I don't know; I haven't been there lately, and they were my first so everything else sorta pales beside theirs. But very good, equal anyway. Big dumplings stuffed with tasty goodness, in a seasoned but not hot sauce. Mmmm. Perfect on a slightly cool spring day. Canned drinks, plus lassi. Great prices. A bit slow, but they had several customers dining in plus carryout right at noon, and this is good food made from scratch. I was still out of there in less than an hour, and I lingered and savored everything. I will be back to explore the menu.

OMG, THEIR MOMO'S ARE BETTER THAN MOMO GHAR's ...!!! Yea, I said it. That's speaking sacrilege in this town. But I liked Khaja Ghar's momo's better. Really. Seriously. Honestly. Better... I love the foodie town Columbus has become. When I moved here in the 1980's to go to Ohio State, there were only 3 great restaurants (Refectory, Bexley's Monk, and Ziggy's Continental), and the "ethnic cuisine" options were Mexican at El Vacquero or Chinese at Hunan Lion. That was about it. There weren't many other ethnic foods available. My, how things have changed. Today, Columbus is an amazing and very colorful tapestry of people from different backgrounds, home countries, ethnicities, and their foods. It's pretty amazing. Many of my favorite small, very authentic restaurants are on Morse Road or 161 between I-71 and Cleveland Avenue. The variety and authenticity of the restaurants in this area is incredible. Khaja Ghar is among the best I've found. The jhol momo's are pretty incredible. I think I paid $11.99 for 8 BIG momo's in an incredibly flavorful, delicious red sauce. ("Jhol" momos are drowned in delicious red chutney sauce). I had the Pork Johl Momo's, and I'd beg to get them again and again and again. They're that good. I also had the Thupka soup - flavorful and very satisfying on a grey, cold Ohio January day. As noted in other reviews, it was a little salty, and the spaghetti noodles flip around and cause you to slop a little broth on your shirt, but I love rich, flavorful soup in the winter and this was good enough to order again. The garlic naan was only OK - I'll skip the naan next time. The mango lassi was good - I'd get it again. But the momo's - OMG the momo's - SO GOOD. So delicious. Awe-inspiring. I started to write this review by saying "I have no words to tell you how much I loved their momo's", and then it came to me - I like their momo's better than Momo Ghar's, and I really love Momo Ghar. These are just bigger and better. And a better value. I'm a big guy and a bowl of these (8 big momo's for $11.99) would fill me up completely. Happily. I'm not dissing Momo Ghar - they're awesome. So is Khaja Ghar. I'll probably get hate mail. There will be protestors outside our house. I'll get impeached from Yelp Elites. Banned from Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. That's fine. I'll order Doordash from Khaja Ghar and feed everyone and make converts. Khaja Ghar is in a brightly painted building along Morse Road about halfway between Menard's and Cleveland Avenue. Think a small place opened on a budget by immigrants excited to bring their food to you. Kinda dive-y, in the best sort of way. The inside is very clean. The people are nice. I felt completely and totally welcome, even though all other patrons on this Saturday afternoon were Nepali families. The sign out front says "Nepali * Indian * American". I love that. This is a hidden gem. Go. Just go. Get a Mango Lassi and a bowl of Pork Johl Momo's and skip everything else on the menu during your first visit. You'll thank me. Then you'll go back, and you'll thank me again. It's THAT GOOD. I'm already thinking about taking my wife, and some friends, even though I'm still full... :-) (PRO TIP - if you want a REALLY multicultural experience, go grocery shopping at Saraga Market (only 1 mile west on Morse Road), then go to Khaja Ghar...

The location is definitely rustic and not is the best part of town... but that won't stop a true foodie! No alcohol or beer Food--- so so so good! Seating - a good amount Atmosphere- rustic / dive restaurant Service- definitely a language barrier so order off the menus and don't be difficult. Parking - easy
