Lhasa Fast Food has limited seating tucked down a side corridor behind cell phone shops, and there's always a long line, per Dancing Yaks' account of the spot's Bourdain fame. The counter became a destination after Anthony Bourdain filmed a Parts Unknown segment there sampling thenthuk and momos.
Because seating is so limited, search-aggregated diner accounts advise going early or expecting to wait in queue once tables fill. The tiny footprint means demand regularly outpaces available seats during meal times.
