    Food was ok. Had the Kukhura Chayau Tarkari and the Salmon Tandoori. Salmon tandoori was tasty but looked like they used a couple of scrap pieces of fish. We had dined at another Himalayan restaurant in Berkeley and the presentation was much nicer with beautiful thick cut pieces of fish. Service is very slow and difficult to get the waitress's or assistant's attention -- even though there were only a few other tables occupied. Fine if you want a leisurely meal with lots of time to kill. The best part is they have a lot with free parking.

    The ambiance is very nice and the room is nicely decorated with colorful artwork. I personally think the food could be a bit better, especially momos were a bit on the plain side. But we did not get to try different food options so I think it wouldn't fair to say too much about. Do try their chai and naan. The manager/owner was very friendly.

    Great food. Amazing Naan. The only down side was the fact that they make you pack up your own food for any leftovers.

    Himalayan food which was different from the East Indian food we were accustomed to. Very tasty and made to order which increased its flavors. Will return again and try other new dishes.

    We were looking for a good but not expensive place to eat before going to a music event nearby. The food was excellent, mostly Nepalese influenced, and served promptly. The staff were friendly and attentive. We will be back.

    Smelled amazing when we walked in and the food was incredible! Even the kids loved it. The waitress told us the Tandoori would take 15 minutes but it came out faster than that. We would definitely visit again.

    Very attentive servers. Expansive menu with good descriptions of what each meal was - along with numbers to order by. Food was very tasty, served hot with a pleasant appearance when delivered. One appetizer, two entries, and tea for $50 including tax and tip. All in all a delightful meal and a restaurant that we will go back to.

    The staff was very sweet and generous. The dining room could use some refreshing and the food needs more flavor. It wasn't spicy but it does need some seasoning. The tandoori chicken was very dry. The palak paneer was strangely bland although the paneer itself was good. I hope they can step up their cooking and make a go of it.

    They were open on Christmas evening meal is the best recommendation. The staff was very attentive. Most of the food was very tasty and authentic though the mango chutney was pasty.
