Reviews for the cheel in Thiensville, WI
This place is fabulous! Some of the most creative and tasty dishes you'll find in the Midwest. The mix of Nepalese and Himalayan... cuisine is truly a unique treat, all inspired by Nepal native Chef Barkha, who is an inspired entrepreneur. You have to try it! Read more
The food was made fresh and everything we had was quite delicious. Loved the environment and the waitress Cindy was so kind and... attentive. A great gem hidden in the suburbs, highly recommend! Read more
A customer recomnended The Cheel for dinner and after our first visit I can wholeheartedly agree. The staff were extremely... friendly with and offered great advice on choices. We went with a selection of appetisers (minibitz) including vegetarian andlamb dumplings and I went with a traditional Nepalese steak dish which was delicious. I will definitely be coming back next timeI'm in town. Read more
If you want to experience unique and flavorful dishes that make your taste buds sing, make a trip to the Cheel. Greeted at the... door by a cheerful hostess, seated at comfortable table and chairs (high tops are available in bar area) and provided drinkmenus first. Waitress greeted us and took drink order shortly thereafter. Table mate is a bourbon drinker and there was a smallbut nice selection. Chose the Blanton’s and was satisfied. I enjoyed the Yeti summer cocktail. We had no experience withHimalayan/Nepalese cuisine. Waitress patiently went through the whole menu with us. Settled on the Nepali Thali which gave us avariety of dishes to try: : bandel roganjosh, kukhura tarkari, saffron basmati rice, choice of dal, seasonal vegetables, ghew,kenema, & classic aachar. always concerned about the heat of dishes since I do not tolerate any heat at all and the dishes comewith a variety of sauces from mild to eat at your own risk. Not a problem as long as I did not add the sauces. Looking forwardto returning and exploring more dishes. Read more
Amazing use of complex flavors. I had the lamb Momo (dumplings), deep fried chicken pea fingers (a lot like mozz sticks) with a... beautiful creamy center. Could've eaten the dipping sauces by themselves. The cheesecake with saffron & orange infusion is inthe top ten best desserts I've EVER had. The server was extremely knowledgeable, which I appreciated a lot. Read more
My husband and I went there for dinner on a busy Friday night. Though we got a table in about 10 minutes, the waiting area was... pretty cramped and the waitresses were cramped for space and struggling to get the food out. Even we were uncomfortable standingnext to the door and very close to another table. I wish they had a small waiting area.. Now to the positives. The food wasamazing!! Very good vegetarian options.. We had baked veggie momos, besan gyaw, cheeli, and rajma burger+aalo fries. We lovedthe food! It was our first time trying Nepalese cuisine. It was very interesting to see how similiar, yet different it was toIndian food. A must try place and definitely worth the drive. I would love to visit The Cheel again. Read more
This was a delightful find. From the second you walk into this restaurant there is a great fun sway (Feng shui). The bar area... is open with plenty of capacity to sit waiting diners, and the wall to wall windows make the place feel very open. This was myfirst flirt with Nepal cooking and after looking at the menu it was difficult to choose from the wide assortment of unusualofferings. This foreign feeling of the unknown, was soon abated by a very efficient and friendly waiter (Dave) who, like aNepalese Sherper, patiently guided us through the different sauces and the many varieties of meats, fish, poultry, and veggiedishes to select. I had the Sea Bass as a main entree' and the Samosa (duck filled pastry). The presentation was exceptionaland the flavor was remarkable. We will definitely revisit to explore the many, many, interesting and exotic dishes to choosefrom. On Saturday at 9:00 they have live jazz bands and the place feels like a bit of California. Enjoy!

Oh my.........what a wonderful experience! My wife and i chose this place for two reasons. 1......it was our 30 year anniversary... and I wanted to go somewhere unique. After speaking with the woman while making our reservation, she indicated that the food wasmade from family recipes and they were from the Himalayas. 2.........Never had Himalayan food. Whereas the service was a littleslow the expierence was very memorable for my wife and I. A must go to. (Thank you for the small gift you gave my wife! BONUS!) Read more
