In 4 trips to McLeod Ganj this is where I eat the most consistently. The food is fresh and delicious and at such a great price. There are so many dishes I am still yet to try. The Tibetan lady who runs it is super sweet. I have brought a lot of friends here who have loved it too.

The Lady owner of the restaurant, takes all that pains to serve... More

Very good. Best of Mcloud Ganj. We've been in India twice and eat at some restaurants in town and this is the best. The sympathy of Miss Kalsang is another attraction. Their food is good, healthy and delicious. I loved the vegetarian momos soup and will go back there to eating this soup, noddles, momos and the best muesli curd... More

Really healthy, simple Tibetan food. The service is slightly strange but the food and price compensate for that. Somewhere to grab a quick bite and go, not linger too long or have any relaxing afternoons. I had the fried cheese momo's and veg Tibetan noodle - really tasty and filling. The food is not spicy at all but has very... More

Good banana lassi and kind of boring apple lassi.... More

Have enjoyed having my breakfasts at Gakyi this week, the portion sizes are more than generous so make sure you go hungry, the owner is lovely always friendly and smiling, food is delicious and served quickly, no wonder they're always full.

The owner lady is very nice, even if she sounds rude. Cheap food, good food. if you're looking for a simple vegetable Chinese dinner or lunch, Gakyi is a good option.The breakfast here is also very good.
