Tama Eatery & Bar on Upper Queen St, CBD, was a fantastic exciting dining experience to have, trying out Nepalese cuisine. The restaurant was very quaint and modest looking and staff was super hospitable and welcoming.I ordered a mixed berry lassi due to the humid evening and this was very refreshing. To eat, I ordered some pork steamed dumplings served spicy and these have to be some of THE best dumplings I’ve ever tasted.My main was a chicken Nepalese curry with rice and roti. My dish was exceptional. I order very hot and the curry was so fragrant and aromatic not to mention, rustic. I was truly delighted, so much so that I want to return to try more of the menu. Highly recommended!

Well, yet another Nepalese restaurant experience.This one locates in the city on the upper queen just across the K Road you will see.Must admit this is the first time I learnt that actually there are quite a number of Nepalese in Auckland!So, you don't need me to tell you how good this is.The meat plater is yummy, can't help wonder why Nepalese restaurants can make such nice plater?Momo, of course, delicious in both fried one and the team one.Edamame, this is beyond my expectations it's refreshing and tasty.Great hospitality, good food, a good Friday evening.

They eatery focusses on a few simple dishes and does them very well. The dumplings are on point, and Nepal's answer to tacos are a delicious fusion of flavours. Vegan options are well executed too. We will be back!

*you guys nailed it*My first ever experience trying authentic Nepalese cuisine. It was really worth a visit. The restaurant was very quaint and modest looking and staff was super hospitable and welcoming.We ordered fried and steam momos and also ordered thupka. The best thupka i've ever tested. I have to say i enjoyed every bite of the meal. Highly recommend.We will be back soon.

There was only one waiter working on Friday night but the service was fantastic and he did great considering how busy it was. The food was amazing but it was a little difficult to hear the waiter and others with the volume of the music.

Finally tried this place after months of driving past it. I visited when they had a limited menu, I have been told that they will bring back the full menu the following week. I tried their popular Nepalese dumplings. I was hungry and expected it to not be enough but I was full by the time I reached my last dumpling.The waiter was very helpful and polite, alcohol is served here, there are steps going down to the main restaurant floor but there are tables by the entrance if steps aren't convenient.

If you always wanted to try Nepaleses food, Tama Is the place to be. It’s hard to describe the flavours because they are nothing like anything I’ve tasted before. All I can say is they are full of flavour with generous servings and you won’t be disappointed! Go try it out!

Really had an out of this world (or really just Auckland) experience here at Tama last weekend! Ordered a lot of dishes to try and every single dish had us surprised and raising our eyebrows! Although not every dish agreed with our taste buds, it is likely to be due to culture shock. Very strong and rich flavors we never tried before.For safe choices, definitely go for the chicken nibbles which are just a yummy sweet fried chicken and also the steamed dumplings which will allow you to savour the flavors.The chilli momo is intensely yummy, but may overwhelm some with the unique sauce and filling so maybe pair with a vege dumpling! The sekuwa wasn’t a my favourite but was my boyfriend’s favourite, the rice flakes really do add another dimension to the flavors and textures. Waiwai noodles go soggy, so eat up quick!Must order: the baji set. Different, unique and authentic. It lets you try everything, so it is a win-win. Try mix and matching flavors on the dishes!Amazing experience, the waitress was also the nicest I’ve had in a long while! Expressing with enthusiasm all the dishes and the culture behind each, pairings and origins, what they tested for fusion and what they may have replaced for better tastes. Thank you.

I'm hoping they open again soon. The easiest go to is their mixed platter - it has everything you want. My favourite would have to be the momos - deep fried dumplings that tastes like a cross between southeast Asian and Indian flavours. Oh and the fries. What a good twist a simple change in seasoning does for the fries!

Had a really nice meal here during our last night in Auckland. We did a bit of a progressive dinner and were really lucky to stumble upon TAMA for a fantastic Nepalese meal.Don’t be alarmed by the professional pictures - the food is real, tasty and not overly expensive! We had an order of dumplings (pan fried were delicious!) and an order of veggie curry with roti. Topped off with a generous glass of wine and a cold Japanese beer, our tab was just over $50 NZ.Enjoy this great spot just off of K Road!
