nimtho

decent place.. finedine place. good crowd, quite and quaint, good service. food was good, the staff could do better, with knowing thier dishes... especially as gangtok has lot of tourist who come there totastesome thing new .

this restaurant is located at mg marg gangtok. staff are very helpful for choosing menu. foodtastewas good.

being a food admirer i love totastelocal food whenever i travel. i can connect with the place more in this way. nimtho means warm invitation in sikkimese language. if you want to have authentic tibetan, sikkimese or nepalese food then this is the place. the interior decor waa beautifully rooted to their culture. we ordered phing, chicken choila, chicken sandheko, phapar ko roti, nepalese chicken curry and trust me you would love it. overall wonderful experience ..

decent place for local cuisine. we tried their jhol momo which was very good. steamed bun and nepali mutton curry was also a good and filling combination. shaphaley( i hope the spelling is right) is kind of a bigger version of the fried momo but much tastier and crispier. the only thing we didn't like was the achar made of cheese...i think it was the smell of the yak's milk that made the cheese different. the localities might find it good as they are used to the flavour,but it didn't suite ourtastebuds. however,it was a good experience.

been here on a trip to gangtok to try the local cuisine. tried their special thakali thali, shaphaley, jhol momo and sevai. the food was absolutely delicious. highly recommended for atasteof the local cuisine. located at mg marg.

want to try shaphalay and gundruk jhol? visit nimtho. if you want to try local cuisine in sikkim, this is the place for you. such a wonderful place with earthy ambience and courteous staff. they don’t only have local food but also local alcohol. perfect place to soothe yourtastebuds. presentation of the food is cherry on the cake. visit to this restaurant simply made our evening.

although location might be drawing the price higher, but whatever tasty thali the resturant will provide or not, the customer should expect to fill their stomach with the dish.tastewise perfect.

interior decoration was a plus, you will certianly feel a soothing, vintage vibe from the place.

we ordered sikkimese thali with pork trotters, which was good on thetastescale but not on the quantity. also ordered buff sutuki (dried buffalo meat garnished with veggies), which was new to me!!

overall, nice 👍
though the quantity should be higher for the thali. sorry for the quality of the picture provided.

nimtho is located in mg marg , opposite to gini and jony stores and located in the first floor of the building

ambiance is very attractive , they have made the decor so we'll starting from their seating arrangements to their lighting's . the wall and the show pieces and the art work are awesome. it will give you a feel that you are in a sophisticated villaged

we were not much hungry and hence ordered two starters. while walking through mg marg , by the looks of this restaurant , we entered this place

food ordered - buff sukuti and charcoal grilled chicken

taste wise it was wonderful but a bit hard as sukutis are meant to be like that and thetasteof the charcoal grolled chicken was also very good.

but quantity wise it was too less for the price.
the quantity must improve

a hearty meal in the freezing cold actually warms ur soul..the gyanthuk and jhol momo tell a story of their own...broth is so yummy...the lulling melody of nepali music in the background makes for a great ambience...decor is totaste..had a wonderful experience..

nimtho

the last night in gangtok...heavy rain not giving a moment of rest to the tin-shed...hungry bellies waiting for an opportunity to brave the downpour. we started our walk the moment we realized it won't stop and passed some curious and also some disapproving eyes of the locals who had taken shelter inside local shops. 45 mins of uphill walk in rain can really work up the appetite! so...m.g marg...few umbrella-sheltered heads still waltzing by and our search for a viable dining house began. we landed on nimtho...a place that is shrouded in the illusion of upscale ambiance and with full potential of charging big bucks but since it serves local cuisine, the pocket pinch was surprisingly in budget.

in frame : what we ordered and the place...

1. bakthuk - gnochhi styled pasta made without the quintessential potatoes, and served in thukpa style...i.e with broth, meat and veggies! slightly tangy intastewhich was too recognizable for the other dishes were of completely differenttasteprofile. one bowl is enough for a moderately hungry belly.

2. tingmo with home-styled chicken curry - two fluffy steamed buns worth rs. 50 and a humble & spicy chicken curry as its side, this dish was just what we needed in that weather. it was wholesome and the curry was a bit of homely touch we needed after constant exploration of different cuisines in the hills!

3. the decor!

this is a place one must visit when exploring the eateries of m.g marg, gangtok! moderately cheap, calm ambiance and exceptional service...to sum it up!
