Most Popular Tibetan food in Ladakh, Jammu and Kashmir, India
Find out what Tibetan restaurants to try in Ladakh. Bounded by the Karakoram and Himalayan mountains, Ladhak is the largest province in the state of Jammu and Kashmir. The landscape of Ladhak, a high altitude desert, is defined by craggy, barren cliffs and plateaus. Ladhak is a favorite among adventure sports enthusiasts, offering unique adventures in trekking, mountaineering and white water rafting. While rafting options are available on both Indus and Zanskar rivers, the Zanskar course is more difficult and exciting. The trekking options range from short, day-long walks to visit monuments or monastic settlements to long, trans-mountain treks involving weeks of walking and camping in the wilderness. Ladhak celebrates a numbers of monastic festivals - annual events of the major monasteries primarily in winters. The month of September, hosts the Ladhak Festival, that gives a peek into the richness, depth and pageantry of Ladakh's centuries-old culture, traditions and folk heritage. One can witness the best samples of the region's performing arts, Archery contests and the Ladhak Polo Cup.

Small room... one lead lady.. but that humble restaurant remains packed most of the time.. we ordered one portion potato cheese momo which was unique and well prepared and veg momo which was also nice.. my wife particularly enjoyed the red chilly garlic dry chutney (some version of schewauan sauce and is very spicy) they serve with momo. Portion size is very good around 10 momos in one plate.. Thupka was also nice. But it's a meal in itself..

We were here nine years ago and were happy to find it still in business. Great view of the busy pedestrian-only bazaar below. And that might be the best thing about the restaurant. The food was good, the service a bit lackadaisical. The men's room offered an unpleasant throwback-- a dirty squat toilet. There are now cleaner, more cheerful restaurants happy to have your business.

Not exactly a resturant but a small kitchen with few tables in open . Best time to enjoy their food is in day as evenings are pretty cool and seating place is not more then a small room Their menu has surprsingly variety mexican, italian, tibeti every thing they have it and yes they cook it awesome. Try Kahwa and Thupka for sure . My kids loved their pizza which was generous to be that cheesy to make italians at shame . Wonderful taste and food .

The place is quite nice and upscale, although the toilet could use a bit of maintenance. The food was not too inspiring, though. I only had momos, which were rather tasteless. Probably other items are better. The staff were all playing noisy video games when they weren't actually working, which I found really annoying. They should at least have had the sound turned way down. And there should have been someone paying attention to the customers all the time.Dear Teri T Jullay Thanks for taking out time to write review for us. We have noted down the suggestion and feedback shared by you, and will positively work on it and we are hoping that next time when you will visit, we will not disappoint you. And lastly regarding Momos, we make it in traditional Ladakhi/Tibetan style which is little bit plain as compare to what normally other food joints sell here in Leh as well as other part of country, so we guess that is why you found it tasteless. Thanks for your visit. Regards Team Sky Wok Ladakh

To be honest we didnât expect much, because it is a place in main backpackers â street. We had Ladakhi-Tibetan food which was really nice, freshly made and served properly. And the prices are just great, even not expensive! Will visit this place again.

I visited the Lamayuru restaurant in Leh city last May'19 with my wife. She opted for some Tibetan dish but I went for conventional Chinese dish, food was excellent tasty and most of all well prepared. We have nice memory of Lamayuru restaurant.

We ordered the big chicken sandwiches. All they could serve was club sized bread with loads of spinach and cucumber along with traces of chicken. Disappointed with the food quality. I visited this restaurant because I received good feedback from most of my friends who have traveled Ladakh.

This is nice Tibetan restaurant in a bungalow type structure close to the main Leh Market, with an open area in a verandah and inside area. We reached early around 7.30 pm as it gets crowded later. The ambience of the restaurant is not upscale but appropriate in the local setting. The service was helpful in advising us on the local dishes to try out. We had vegetable thepka ( noodle soup), mutton momos, and mutton septa ( served with freshly baked local bread).
