We are so excited that Taste of the Himalayas is now open. We got takeout tonight and really enjoy every we got. We’re excited to come back and try some new dishes too. We went for medium on spice and might go up next time but the mild was perfect for our non-spicy taste kiddo.

First time having Indian food. The vegetable samosas were large and delicious. Garlic and herb Naan was very tasty. Goat curry was okay, too many bones and not enough meat. I would go there again.

Super delicious! Very friendly, clean and airy restaurant with nice decorations and photos. Friendly and kind staff. We were seated right away. Great menu with good prices. Everything came out at a good time and tasted wonderful. Chiya was both sweet and spiced perfectly, I loved it. Try something different – get any dish that says it is Nepalese vs. your usual Indian go-tos (although those are fantastic as well) it is really unique and so tasty.

Went there for a dinner with a few friends and the food was amazing. Ambience is pretty good as well. I love the music they were playing. Probably the best Indian and Nepali food in the area. Highly recommend it.

The service is prompt, friendly and efficent, and the atmoshpere makes you feel like you are eating at a food friend’s home, one who wants to share their culture with you.
