Reviews


As of current, you have 299 evaluations from 1 website(s) at your disposal. The midpoint review for Goldfinch is 4, denoting that guests have a very high opinion of this restaurant. The restaurant, located in the city center, fell short of being a great spot for business meetings due to lukewarm proteins and a cold atmosphere. Despite this, the vegetable momo and garlic nan were outstanding, and the goat curry was enjoyed by one diner. Service was praised as very good and attentive. However, there were complaints about slow service, incorrect orders, and small appetizer portions, which could be detrimental to the restaurant's success. On the bright side, the staff were described as very nice and helpful, providing unique and delicious Nepalese cuisine at fair prices. A mid-week visit revealed a quiet atmosphere with outstanding service and quick food delivery. Overall, the food was delicious, with standout dishes like the Iowa corn soup and chicken breast. Unfortunately, the restaurant has since closed, leaving patrons with fond memories of good food and service.
