I tried one of their chicken dishes and can't remember the name; however, it was so good that I had a second chicken entree. Also, they cook their basmati rice correctly which not an easy task by any means. Additionally, I liked our server because he was easy to talk to. This is now my top Himalayan food spot in Poway and Rancho Bernardo. A big thank you for a great lunch break to Spices of Himalaya!

I wish I had photos of the food, but it disappeared too quickly because it tasted so good! I ordered a lunch for one of my sister's wedding weekend events. The staff was able to help me determine how much food to order, and they helped me with some catering equipment last minute. When I ended up having to send someone else to pick up the food, they recorded a video to show me how to set up the catering containers and heaters. They even provided an extra dessert on the house.

Fantastic restaurant. Had tandoori fish, paneer makhani, vegetable samosa and garlic naan. The flavors, spices and freshness were extremely delicious. The best part was the service and hospitality.
