I wasn’t expecting too much coming from a takeout in a gas station. But it was surprisingly good. We had 4 different dishes and all were delicious. I ordered through their website for pickup and it was done on time.

I stumbled across this place while I was looking for a closer Indian restaurant online and decided to try it since the reviews were so good even though it’s inside a gas station. I ordered the chicken tikka roll medium spicy, veggie samosa and the buttered naan bread. The employees were very helpful, I had asked about the size of the roll to make sure it’s not the size of an egg roll and it’s the size of a regular wrap thank goodness! It was so good, fresh veggies good seasoning, it did come with a green sauce and a red. I have no idea what the sauces are but the green kinda tasted minty maybe and the red is a sweeter one (my husband ate all of the red sauce.) The veggie Samosa was medium spicy, plenty for us, they were good too. The naan bread was buttery as I ordered but are just a little thinner than I like. They weren’t fluffy like I’ve had at other places, it was more like a homemade tortilla. We will definitely be back I can’t wait to try the buttered chicken! Online ordering was super easy. I didn’t see any table and chairs inside but they did have a couple outside.

Great for a food truck stop. They have a nice covered area with a large screen tv set up with speakers. Very friendly and the food was top quality. Very pleasant surprise for a random stop.

Pleasantly surprised by the wonderful food we ordered via Uber eats from here! We were craving Nepalese momos and we usually order from another place . But wanted to try this new restaurant for a change . We ordered the vegetarian chili momos (medium spicy), chicken biryani (medium spicy) and rasamalai. Everything tasted great! The spice level was so apt for us and we usually do not prefer biryani that is heavy on the masala and this one was just right with the correct amount of spices for us and really tasted good . Rasamalai was soft and well made . Chili momos were the highlight and were really good ! Will definitely order again from here or go in person to check out the ambiance and service .

Excellent food. Very authentic spices. Many time spicy means more chillies, but this was different. Highly recommended. We tried the Chilli Momos (veg), Chole Bhature and chilli paneer. Edited about couple of years after my first post, food is as good as before and the flavor continues to enamor my family!! Here is my second edit, continues to be great. If you are going here, you are going for the spice. If you are going for the spice, better upgrade all the way to the "Lali Special Spice", costs a $ or so more, but worth every penny. They have moved to a food truck park from the gas station. The park itself is less than impressive, I really hope they find more success here. Disclaimer is that all food that I have had from here is vegetarian.

Their commitment to using meat from Halal sources is commendable, ensuring quality and adherence to dietary restrictions. The ambiance of Lali Son is warm and welcoming, a reflection of its owner, Surya Shah. Mr. Shah's passion for Nepalese cuisine and dedication to customer satisfaction are palpable in every interaction. He is not just an owner but the heart and soul of the restaurant, often seen engaging with customers, ensuring they have a wonderful dining experience. Now, let's talk about the food – specifically, their Chicken 65 biryani. This dish is an absolute masterpiece. The perfectly balanced spices give it a unique, spicy, and irresistible flavor. The chicken is tender and perfectly cooked, and the rice is fragrant and fluffy. It's not just a meal; it's an experience that takes you on a culinary journey to Nepal. In conclusion, Lali Son is more than just a restaurant; it's a place where food meets culture, and every dish served is a testament to the rich culinary heritage of Nepal.
