Lali Son: Nepalese Restaurant - Leander, Texas

I recently tried this food truck, and unfortunately, it was a huge disappointment. The bread was half-cooked and doughy, making it really unappetizing. The chicken curry was extremely watery and lacked any real flavor. To top it off, the momos had terrible stuffing, which was far from tasty. Additionally, the wait time was excessively long, adding to the overall frustration. Overall, a very underwhelming experience that I wouldn't recommend to anyone.

Great for a food truck stop. They have a nice covered area with a large screen tv set up with speakers. Very friendly and the food was top quality. Very pleasant surprise for a random stop.

I wasn’t expecting too much coming from a takeout in a gas station. But it was surprisingly good. We had 4 different dishes and all were delicious. I ordered through their website for pickup and it was done on time.

Really good food.
Tried Jhol Momo and Chily Momo. And Chicken 65 Biryani.
Great service.

I recently ordered from Lali Son (Veg Food).
The food was really delicious—it was hot, the quantity was sufficient, and while the price was a bit high, the quality was excellent.

The only suggestion I have is to improve the cleanliness around the area. Even though it's a food truck space, the surroundings should be cleaned and maintained better.

I stumbled across this place while I was looking for a closer Indian restaurant online and decided to try it since the reviews were so good even though it’s inside a gas station. I ordered the chicken tikka roll medium spicy, veggie samosa and the buttered naan bread. The employees were very helpful, I had asked about the size of the roll to make sure it’s not the size of an egg roll and it’s the size of a regular wrap thank goodness! It was so good, fresh veggies good seasoning, it did come with a green sauce and a red. I have no idea what the sauces are but the green kinda tasted minty maybe and the red is a sweeter one (my husband ate all of the red sauce.) The veggie Samosa was medium spicy, plenty for us, they were good too. The naan bread was buttery as I ordered but are just a little thinner than I like. They weren’t fluffy like I’ve had at other places, it was more like a homemade tortilla. We will definitely be back I can’t wait to try the buttered chicken! Online ordering was super easy. I didn’t see any table and chairs inside but they did have a couple outside.

We came with our family of 7 and fell in love with this food truck place. The owner was insightful with explaining all the food items and genuinely interested in making sure our visit was good. The food was flavorful, clean and filling. We ordered some chicken and vegetable plates and it was amazing. Our picky 4 year old even enjoyed the food. Cherry on top was that this place has a kids playground area and tented with TV and fans. It was so relaxing and we enjoyed spending our Sunday lunch here.
