Such an underrated restaurant in San Diego! Not only is the service quick and efficient, but the Himalayan food is beyond flavorful. I always get their chicken tandoori and the mushroom tikka masala (which they can even do vegan). Highly, highly recommend for comforting, warming dishes. Beats Indian food to me!
Really nice and totally enjoyed!

Himalayan Kitchen Encinitas is a favorite spot for lunch, offering a great deal from 11am-3pm, Monday to Friday, with two curries, soup, and naan for $12. The restaurant serves high-quality, flavorful food, including best-in-class garlic naan, mango lassi, and saag aloo. Friendly staff and a variety of vegetarian options make it a welcoming spot for all.
Customers praise the excellent food quality and wonderful service, with one reviewer calling it the "best lunch deal in North County." The restaurant is known for its delicious chicken dishes, including the popular korma, as well as sizzling chicken for dine-in customers. While it can get quite crowded, leading to small tables, diners appreciate the large selection and tasty offerings.
