We were at Melbourne central shopping and ended up here for a quick lunch. We ordered chicken nasi goreng and it was yum! The service was good too.
We've been to this restaurant three times and each time we've not been disappointed. Very tasty fare with authentic taste.
Whilst Chilli India next door is still being renovated, from the same group (I'm assuming because of the similar signage) comes Chilli Everest, highlighting Nepalese cuisine and influences from its neighbouring countries in the north and south. Not sure if the whole seating stretch is reserved for Chilli Everest but we were lucky to grab a table next to the exit to little Bourke Street which was rather cold. It was by far the busiest restaurant out of all the shops with many patrons itching for something close to home.
There was lots on the menu that I was intrigued with but settled with their popular chow mein, Nepalese style. It was very tasty, the breathe of the wok still lingered in my mouth hours afterwards. It was also spicy and had raw pieces of onion which I adore. The pieces of goat wasn't what I expected, they were more the texture of jerky than being soft and tender.
On the side we also shared some chilli potatoes which I'm breaking into a sweat thinking about it, it was very spicy. My friend however loved it with his Thakali Khana Set which gave it that oomph, very much needed from his commentary.
No room to try their momos, maybe next time.
Ever tried Chicken Chow-mien in Melbourne? then this a best place to try Chicken Chow-mien here throughout the city. Delicious food at reasonable prices. a bit Oily, but can sacrifice that just for the taste. Tried it for 3 to 4 times and never felt bored with the taste. Masala tea here is also a worth and must a try here. Only problem here is with the seating, which never looks like a restaurant.
Good One, but could be better place which makes it a perfect restaurant!!

I was never satiated to this level in Melbourne. Tried the veg chow mein and jhol momos and loved every bit of it.
This is more of a Nepalese preparation and hence you get the authentic flavours.
I would recommend you guys to visit their atleast once if you love spicy food like I do.
You won’t get smiles from any of the staff working at this place.. the only look they give you is as if you’re a walking burden to them to serve lol.
But that has never stopped me from patronizing as their chicken chow mien is that damn good. I’ve tried other items on their menu but nothing comes close to this plate of bad ass noodles.
If only they worked with a smile on their face... must be all that competitive pressure from chilli India next door although it is owned by the same person. Oh well.
Can be a little crowded sometimes but I’ve always been able to find a seat. The momos both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options are excellent and the chaat is also good. Also tried the pani puri but it wasn’t anything special. But overall the food is good and is a place I frequent when I’m in the area.
So here is the thing.... if you are from India and you are craving for “Indian Spicy kinda Chinese Chowmein”... this is the place for you !! We tried it twice and were so satisfied !!! The chicken momos are also pretty good.
Have tried their Masala chai as well ..... it’s nice.... but my advice... order sugarless as it can be too sweet sometimes.
Overall a 👍🏻. I am surely coming back for their chow mein and momos this winter ☺️
Sure, this place wasn’t fancy or that clean, but the point is the food is amazing! Loved the fried rice, the chow mein, and the mo mo. The puffed rice with goat was interesting too. Staff was friendly enough. This place should have a higher rating, just for the food.
very Yum! Got recommended the momos and the goat curry, so Yum! really full of flavour and lots of spice!
the staff are so friendly and funny
was hesitant to try new food but it ended up being great!
Thanks chilli Everest 👌
Typical Nepali restaurant. Food tastes good. Rice dishes and noodles are the one to try out here. Momos were yummy. Chicken nuggets were but below average.
Best chow men in the town based in Melbourne central. Serving size and service quick and easy. Place has a shared seating but MC provides heated space so OK for melbourne winters.
This is the best place to eat Nepalese food in Melbourne. Our must go to place when visiting city. They have good variety to choose from and everything on the menu is just delicious.
