Nepali restaurants in New South Wales
Sydney is the beating heart of Nepali food in Australia. Head west and the momo capital reveals itself: Harris Park and Parramatta run thick with dumpling houses, and you will find Thakali kitchens and buff momo through Auburn, Rockdale and Liverpool.
It is the densest, most competitive Nepali food scene in the country, which is good news for your dinner. The food follows the students and families too, so there are good spots in Wollongong, Newcastle and the coast.
We have mapped 184 Nepali spots across New South Wales, with the biggest clusters in Auburn, Rockdale and Hurstville.
