Sewa Nepalese and Indian Cuisine

The combination of cultural food here is great. Some of the best Indian food I've ever had combined with some unique items from Nepal such as dumplings that seem similar to something you would find at a dim sum restaurant. Overall, the food was outstanding, including high quality sag lamb and great naan bread too. This is a family restaurant and clearly the people running it care very deeply about providing great service and great food. Prices are very reasonable too. We had an appetizer, two main courses, and one drink each for a total of $68 before tip.

Beautiful family owned restaurant with authentic dishes. In particular the kale chaat, daal, garlic naan, momos and paneer tikka masala were amazing. The service is great and reminds you of being treated like family. Highly recommend!!

I was raining outside and I came here with my friend here to try chilli veg. momo and steamed chicken mimo which were beyond of my imagination. The interior was really authentic and gives the real vibes of Nepal. I met with Lakshmi Dd, the owner of the restaurant, she is really nice. She shared her life story and invited us for the dinner too. It was really an amazing experience with Sewa. They did their job as their name. Really recommended to all the folks!

The restaurant is in the Richmond Area of SF - between 9th and 10th Avenues. You can easily walk/pass the restaurant - there's no frontal or sidewalk signage. Once inside the restaurant it's quiet. The waiter supplied superb service - wanting to please, ensuring your meal is perfect, proud of its dishes, friendly and outgoing. Since these countries are know for their lambs and goats, we ordered a dish of each plus complementing it with side dishes; calamari pakora and chicken tikka masala momo. All were served with just the amount of spices. The main dishes - the sauce was thick and delicious, especially the apricot lamb. Normally, other restaurants that I ate at, their sauces where thinly thick with oil seen. I would definitely recommend any of the apricot dishes. You won't be disappointed. The chicken tikka masala momo is enough as a full meal. It taste better with rice. Calamari pakora I did not like. Somehow it was not what I expected. There were two types of Indian desserts; almond kheer and gulam jamun. Almond kheer is usually made with almonds, sugar, saffron, cardamoms and whole milk. Somehow, I did not taste all the ingredients. It was lacking something and wasn't flavorful. It was like an ordinary rice pudding. Gulam jamun was not soaked nor soggy as other restaurants. It was just right to compliment my meal. It comes with three balls.

Perfect dinner! We were a party of three, sharing two entrees (chicken vindaloo and a vegetarian dal), along with rice and naan. Both entrees were delicious, authentic, perfectly spiced. I am just a visitor to SF and should try out many restaurants, but I am tempted to return. We dined on a Friday night at 6, and had no problem getting a table without a reservation. Highly recommend!
