| - Whatever you do, please do yourself a favor and order the Sadako Chicken. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauteed veggies had a nice amount of crunch that provided a lovely contrast. It's definitely on the spicy end of the spectrum, but the heat was offset nicely by fresh cilantro, sliced tomatoes, and lemon wedges. Light, flavorful, and fresh. One of the best dishes I've had in quite some time.
Also enjoyed the vegetable momos. Pillowy pockets of dough stuffed with a potato filling that reminded me of an Indian samosa that was steamed instead of fried. Very tasty.
Entree wise, we went with an order of Nepali Chicken and Nepali Lamb. Both were excellent. The lamb was a bit too well done for my tastes but still had a great flavor. Both dishes were presented in a way that lent itself to a choose-your-own adventure dining experience. You get a plate of rice and several little side dishes that contain a variety of delicious vegetables, lentils, chutneys, sauces, and pickled goodies. So you're only limited by the depths of your own imagination.
Subba is quite unassuming when you walk by, but please don't let that scare you away. Once you walk up the steps, you'll be greeted by a wall of amazing smells and friendly people. Restaurant was clean, prices were fair, and the food was truly top notch. Can't wait to go back again!
