South McKinney’s dining scene just got a lot spicier. Mustang Momo & Grill quietly flipped on the open sign Jan. 30, bringing a Nepali‑Indian fusion menu that leans hard into handcrafted momos, tandoor‑style grills, curries and kabobs. The kitchen plays with both Himalayan spices and Texas‑style smoke, with early menus showing plenty of options for vegetarians, meat eaters, dine‑in groups and the grab‑and‑go crowd.
According to Community Impact, the lineup includes a signature Mustang chicken seasoned with Himalayan spices and finished in a smoky, tangy sauce. The outlet also notes bhatmas sadeko, a mix of roasted soybeans with onions, tomatoes, green chili and Nepali spices, and points out that the kitchen is handcrafting momos alongside naan, curries and kabobs.
Menu Highlights
The restaurant leans directly into its Texas‑meets‑Himalaya identity. “At Mustang Momo & Grill, we blend traditional recipes from the Himalayas with the bold flavors of Texas barbecue,” the team explains on the Mustang Momo & Grill website. The online menu lists jhol and chili momos, tandoori kebabs and a range of curries, and it provides hours along with online ordering for pickup and delivery.
Where It Fits in DFW's Food Scene
Nepali cuisine, and momos in particular, has been steadily gaining visibility across North Texas through pop ups, new restaurants and a regional festival that draws large crowds, as CultureMap reported. The Dallas Observer has likewise documented an expanding Nepalese dining presence in Irving that helped push momos into the broader North Texas mainstream.
Practical Details
State construction filings show the suite at 1550 S. Custer Road was renovated ahead of the opening, and public records list the project under the Mustang Momo & Grill name, per the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation. The restaurant posts its address, phone number, hours and ordering options on its website.
