Stopped by for lunch on a Saturday and were one of the only tables filled. There's a sign at the counter which says your wait time may be 5 minutes, so we grabbed menus and sat ourselves - hearing and smelling cooking from the kitchen area in the back. In a few minutes, a waiter came to take our drink order, followed by another waiter a few minutes later to take our food order. Unfortunately, they were out of mutton, but they did have eggs chow mein (in a spicy sauce), chicken curry momos (dumplings) with a flavorful ginger dipping sauce, and vegetable thukpa (a traditional Nepalese stew). The food was all pretty hearty comfort food - pleasantly spicy and filled with plenty of fresh vegetables.
Everest is a surprisingly large strip mall restaurant out on 51. The atmosphere is pretty spartan and awkward, but I would be more than happy to go back for takeout or bring a bottle of wine (they are BYOB) and have a reasonable night out with a small group. (Almost everything on the menu is under $10.) Perhaps if they get more popular, they will fill their many tables and it will be a bustling fun place.
