Reviews for Himalaya Restaurant in Houston, TX
The location is well hidden and may be somewhat cramped so try to get here early. The staff are very friendly and make decent... recommendations for all crowds. I recommend the kebab masala and any goat dishes which you can get your hands on. The lamb legis extremely delicious and the large garlic naan pairs well with anything you order. Read more
This is the best I think I?ve ever had! It is a shame it has so many low reviews. Possibly because the place isn?t much to look... at and the area could use a facelift. But if you interest is good food, Roll up your sleeves and give it a try! Lots of greatfood! Classic recipes that live up to all their awards. Read more
I've been eating here off and on for many years. It's always served consistently fresh and delicious dishes. As a lover of... lamb its hard to resist the lamb shank. It literally melts off the bone and is absent of the often strong gamey flavor. Thegarlic Naan is a must try! It will leave you wanting more. The butter chicken is always a favorite also. The owners arefriendly and welcoming, as are all of the servers. I have always felt this is a Houston gem when it comes to Indianrestaurants. It might not be fancy or located in a prime area, but so worth experiencing the delicious flavors the menu offers. The awards and media highlights that decorate the walls have been well earned and deserved! Read more
We had done a party at our home and we ordered catering through Himalaya and it was a hit! My guests loved the food and took... some home as well. It was delicious and not too spicy! ???? Thank you so much for accommodating us and looking forward for morecatering from you for events in the future! ???? Read more
Honestly, WOW! Why did it take me so long to come back here and to write a review?! After spending 3 long hours at the zoo, we... wanted something to energized us again so we stopped by here. Plus I was craving fried chicken! And man! Their fried chicken wasfire! Loved that it was well seasoned and juicy! Only downside was that the chicken wasn?t fried long enough so I didn?t getthat ASMR crunch factor! But still delish nonetheless. My friends and I also ordered the goat masala. That was my favorite dishby far! It was packed with robust flavors. Hint of spice to tickle ya throat but nothing outrageous. And the goat meat itselfwas so tender! Fork tender! Grabbed some garlic naan to dip in it and wow! AMAZEBALLS! I believed we also got the grilled bbqspecial combo platter. Several different kinds of meat on it. I don?t remember all of it but most of it were super delish. Verytender and juicy. Definitely worth trying! To conclude, I thought this meal was going to energize us but instead, gave me hellaFOOD COMA! haha but that is definitely not a bad thing. Only good food can do that to ya girl. So worth it! The owner himselftook out orders. He was super sweet! Would definitely try to come back more often. I suggest that if you want to dine in, makesure to come a little before the lunch rush. Even for a Tuesday, it was filling up quick! Read more
The restaurant got crowded after we ordered and we couldn't enjoy our food with people's butts constantly in our face, passing... by our table. We tried to change tables but it wasn't any better, since we were sandwiched in between two other tables with nospace between. The owner came over with a tray of fried vegetables and offered some. We ended up having to pay for it eventhough we didn't order it. We also noticed that the same tray was put on the counter and stayed there for a while uncoveredwhile multiple people were passing by, talking over it in close proximity. Later some of the contents of that same tray ended upin to-go boxes for orders waiting to be picked up. That kind of grossed us out. The food was okay but not phenomenal and we haveeaten better versions of the same dishes in the Houston area. I don't think we will return, concerns over food safety and hygeneas well as the atmosphere is a huge negative and the dishes we tried don't make up for it. Read more
I have left a few reviews. As always this place has fantastic food. The tastes are incredible. Best samosas I have ever had.... The crispy lamb ones are a must. The garlic naan is also delicious. This place is a definite must for Houston. The ownercomes by and takes your order. He also makes some great recommendations based on what one likes. Read more
Great tasty food - worth 5 star. Lots of vegetarian options. Not friendly service though. They always seem to be in a hurry to... get you outta there. Tables they offer are too small for group sizes. We are always bumping into each other while eating. If youwant a good experience it's better to take out. Read more
