The food is just so bland, no flavor whatsoever. My body even had a hard time digesting this food afterwards. We had chicken tikka masala and chicken korma both mild. Both had a very small amount of chicken.

This was our 1st time eating here at Himalayan Curry & it was amazing! I ordered for pickup and the gentleman walked me through each thing offered. Once I picked up my order they were super helpful and very friendly! And to top it all off, once my family and I got home to eat; it was absolutely amazing! We absolutely will be coming back! Thank you Himalayan Curry for an amazing family dinner and experience!
Kid-friendliness: We didn't dine in as I have a 15 month old... but I told them and they said no problem.. we will seat you next to the big fish tank to keep him entertained! So maybe next time!

Great decor and ambiance. They provided us with free lentil soup which was heartwarming. Although foods felt short from being good. Our Chicken choila lacked flavor and the chicken tasted stale and hard. Chicken momo were okay but the momo filling lacked flavor.

Disappointing Experience – Poor Restaurant Policy
I had high hopes for this place, but my experience was nothing short of frustrating and disappointing. I arrived at the restaurant at 8:20, well before closing time, expecting to enjoy a nice meal after a long day. To my surprise, I was told that they had already stopped allowing dine-in customers.
This policy makes no sense. If the restaurant officially closes at 9 PM, then customers should be allowed to sit and order at least until a reasonable time before closing. Stopping dine-in service 40 minutes before closing is completely inconvenient and misleading. Nowhere on their website or signage did they mention this restriction, leaving me and others in an awkward situation.
To make matters worse, the staff seemed indifferent and unapologetic about it. Instead of offering a solution, they simply repeated that they had stopped allowing customers to dine in. There was no effort to accommodate or explain why such an odd policy was in place.
A restaurant should prioritize customer service, especially when someone makes the effort to come in well before closing. Instead, I was left feeling unwelcome and frustrated. I won’t be returning, and I certainly won’t be recommending this place to anyone looking for a reliable dining experience.

The food tastes very authentic and delicious. Every time I come I look forward to my next visit. The portions are pretty big, enough for two usually, making the prices reasonable. They always play traditional music, and the staff are nice, polite, and attentive. It’s our favorite spot close to home!

Food is consistently delicious. A little pricey but worth the splurge. The basmati rice is light and fluffy and not too aromatic. The medium+ spice level is perfect if you like a little heat but not over powering.

Much better now that they provide rice and nan with lunch special.
It was either or before they made the change.
I do miss the chili chicken on their lunch special as I would go there more often if they still offered that.
Great service and food. My cup is never empty. I love the vegetarian options here

Food was quite good, little noisy in there acoustics of the room made it so you could hear every word of next table. Little funky with numbered tables, it worked but seemed a little out of place. Food was excellent!
