When you step through the door of Tibet, you are welcomed not only by the aroma of spices but also by a captivating ambiance that makes it an ideal spot for both casual dinners and special occasions.

From customer reviews, it’s clear that the restaurant excels in delivering generous portions and exceptional taste. Zsanett Kovács raves about the excellence of the palak paneer and appreciates the natural sweetness of the mango lassi — free from unnecessary sugar. Such attention to detail is evident in every dish they serve, reinforcing their dedication to authentic flavors. Meanwhile, Clara Bleuet, a globetrotter, reminisced about her travels in Nepal, finding a comforting taste of home in Tibet’s offerings.

Tibet is well-regarded for its momos, both vegetarian and non-vegetarian, which have received raving reviews from diners like Mark Pitts. Paired with a variety of sauces, these dumplings are just the beginning of a menu that boasts a wide array of options to satisfy every palate. The multiple vegetarian dishes ensure that there’s something for everyone, while adventurous souls will find joy in the authentic Tibetan specialties that enrich the experience.

The atmosphere at Tibet is described as inviting and warm, especially in their outdoor patio area.

In conclusion, if you’re in Nuremberg, make sure Tibet is on your itinerary. With its rich flavors, attentive service, and a warm ambiance, this restaurant promises a memorable dining experience that delights the senses and brings an authentic taste of India and Tibet to the table. Just remember to bring cash, as they only accept cash payments—a small trade-off for a delightful meal that you won’t forget.

Palak paneer was excellent. Portions are big, the cuisine is more indian flavour dominant. I really liked, that mango lassi came without extra sugar added.

Really nice restaurant with a great ambiance. Prices are reasonable and the service is good. Food isn’t the most authentic but it is still nice and a good place to spend the evening.

What a beautiful restaurant, the atmosphere, the little courtyard and the service were fantastic! Having travelled to Nepal for 1 month and eaten in restaurants run by Tibetan families, this is the first time I can say that the taste was there and reminded me of that wonderful trip! The dishes were also very spicy, which will delight people from South Asia who find some restaurants bland. I'll be back the next time I'm in Nuremberg.

One of the better Indian restaurants that we have tried in the area with authentic Indian and Tibetan cuisine. The ambiance was great in the outside patio seating area. Service was excellent with friendly and helpful waiters. We started with the vegetarian and non-vegetarian momos, and they were delicious! They were served with salad and plentiful sauces, and we were almost full before our main courses arrived. The main course selections on the menu are plentiful, including many vegetarian options and authentic Tibetan choices. All of our menu choices were delicious and well presented. It was more than we could eat! 3 out of 4 of us had to take home about half of our meals to eat later on. In terms of value, their prices are good for the serving sizes. Just be sure to arrive hungry because you will get more food delivered to your table than expected. We will definitely return here again sometime again with our friends!

Tibet is our go-to curry place on a Sunday night. We love the mango curry and the Goja Goja. A naan is always a must. We love the mango lassi. This last time we tried the samoosas. Not what we expected (coming from South Africa) but loverly and tasty, like all their food. Plus it came with three dips. *Something to note is that they only take cash. There is a sign on the door saying this as you walk in.

I am not a really big fan of Indian food but curry I have eaten here was the best one I had so far. I highly recommend to try their special tea as they are really amazing. Service was a bit slow at the beginning but very polite and friendly.

Tibet is since years a wonderful place to escape for some good experience and good food. At our last visit I felt a bit disappointed. The chicken pieces were huge and everything felt a bit undefined. Very heavy from the sauces. The momos were really good with the different fresh sauces. The garlic naan was ok. The basmati rice was not great. I hope that you put again a bit more love into the last details of your menu and I will come back surely.
