This place has seen better days. For some reason, our group find the ambiance lacking one thing or another. The items we wanted from menu were out and one dish we ordered as mild was served super hot so we returned it. They charge it though......there are lots of alternative Nepali restaurants around do I recommend, " do better".

Beware of Himalayan Flavors. I placed a pick up order through Clover and they accepted the order and charged my card. However, when I arrived at the restaurant they told me they could not prepare the food because they were busy. I asked them to refund my money and they refused, saying it was my problem not theirs. This is fraud and completely unethical, so I would advise that you stay away from this restaurant.

Food was delicious but the service was a little slow and awkward. There was a dead cockroach on the bathroom floor which also wasn't particularly appetizing. Definitely room for improvement but great food

I had worst experience in this restaurant. On the thanksgiving day, I went there with my family, the food was not so good. Moreover , when I pay through credit card, they took $12 extra money through my card. I would suggest everyone to be careful whenever you visit there, it’s scam restaurant, be careful before using credit

The place was bit empty but i had a great time. Food was absolutely fantastic. It reminded me of home. Must go for any Nepalese food lover. Service was timely and fast. Only thing lacking a bit was the atmosphere but everything else was top notch.

Super tasty. Really liked the okra and chicken dish we got - will be back soon I'm sure!

We had lunch there after almost a year and did not have a good experience. We ordered momo's which were good but then followed these with a sahi paneer which was in a poorly seasoned tomato sauce, and the same sauce for the malai kofta. Having made these dishes and eaten them for several years, expecting the nuttiness of the cashew in the sahi paneer and the garam masala flavors of the kofta, we were sadly surprised by a sauce that could of come out of a tomato paste can. They also have an open kitchen and use some equipment that emits a high-pitched noise intermittently that is insanely uncomfortable for those of us with normal hearing. We will not return despite the momos. I mentioned the problem with the sauce to our very young waitress who did nothing to truly explain- should of looked at the reviews as there are other people who have had similar experiences there. Not good at all.

Decent restaurant for Indian food in Berkeley. Ordered Veg Steamed Momo's and Dal Tadka. The Momo's were good, but the dal Tadka was average. Service is good.

Owner was really rude because I always would request my food too be a certain way of preparation... they were accommodating in the beginning and then they told me that the owner didn't want to prepare my food the way I hade previously been requesting!!!! I asked why and the son claimed there was no reason just that his dad didn't want to cook the food the way I liked it. I told him that I was paying extra for the additional accommodation and that if was a problem then I would stop coming he responded they didn't care !!! So I stop going to support their business. I had been eating there at least three or four times a week spending a minimum of thirty dollars a meal!!!!!

Great experience. The ambiance is very welcoming and charming staff Amazing wines, food and service. Staff are extremely knowledgeable and make great recommendations. Beautiful Great momo & Nepli Thali ..

Sadly can't give more than 3 stars. Momo were fine but we ordered mushroom tikka masala and navratan korma and both had exactly the same sauce!! It was kind of awful. Both were really unexpectedly sweet. If we had known the dishes were so similar we would have ordered something else. We left most of the food behind at the restaurant and took the rice home. I wish that the server had mentioned something or made a suggestion. Oh well.

Went in this evening to get whatever dal or lentil soup they are serving. I had my favorite version of sambar made by another local Berkeley restaurant, but the owners became grandparents, retired and moved to Florida!!. Got the Himalayan Flavors' Dals made with yellow & red lentils. When asked about level of spiciness, I said, "mild," and it was DEEELICIOUS!! So nice. Good nutritious, tasty wonderful food!! So blessed. They serve it with rice, but I will save that for later. I will go back and try more at Himalayan Flavors.
