Review Himalayan Grill - San Diego

Outstanding food. The servers were busy. Otherwise, there are no drawbacks! Hot and fresh Himalayan food - highly recommend.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Himalayan Grill, a Nepali restaurant, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience. The flavors and aromas that filled the air were absolutely tantalizing, and the restaurant itself exuded a warm and inviting ambiance. I am so thrilled to share my 4-star review, highlighting the remarkable dishes I had the pleasure of savoring. First and foremost, the Daal soup at Himalayan Grill is an absolute must-try. It is packed with rich, hearty flavors that are incredibly comforting. The lentils are perfectly cooked and the blend of spices is just right, creating a soup that is both satisfying and delicious. It truly showcases the authenticity and passion behind Nepali cuisine. Moving on to the paneer dishes, I was blown away by the quality and taste. The paneer was incredibly soft and flavorful. Whether it was the classic paneer tikka or the mouthwatering paneer butter masala, each dish was bursting with the perfect blend of spices and stood out as a true delight. The paneer dishes truly demonstrate the culinary expertise of the chefs at Himalayan Grill. One thing that really surprised me was their Indo-Chinese dishes. The noodles were perfectly cooked and mixed with a delicious assortment of vegetables and spices. They struck the balance between spicy and flavorful, making it hard to resist going back for seconds. Additionally, the chili paneer was an absolute winner. The paneer cubes were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, bathed in a delightful sweet and spicy sauce that left me craving for more. The service at Himalayan Grill was exceptional, with staff members who were attentive and accommodating. They were more than happy to explain the dishes and offer suggestions based on our preferences. The waitstaff displayed a genuine enthusiasm for their cuisine, which only enhanced our dining experience further. While I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Himalayan Grill and highly recommend it, I provide a 4-star rating due to the minor inconsistency in the spiciness levels of some dishes. However, this should not deter anyone from trying their delectable offerings as the flavors certainly make up for it. In conclusion, Himalayan Grill is a hidden gem that serves up some truly remarkable Nepali dishes. From the comforting Daal soup to the delectable paneer dishes and irresistible Indo-Chinese offerings, this restaurant is a culinary haven. I would highly recommend paying a visit to Himalayan Grill for an unforgettable dining experience that will surely satisfy your taste buds.

The food was prepared well and I would definitely order it again someday. The Chicken Korma was different from any Korma I have tried. It wasn't yellow and tasted more like a regular curry. Maybe it was? It was very good, just unexpected. The Chicken Chili was good too. It seemed like comforting, home cooking.

We ordered Veg chow mein, goat curry and veg momos. The chow mein and goat curry were Amazzingggg ! Momos were ok not as bad could do better. But overall food and service was great!

Highly recommend the Butter Chicken, Paneer Tikka, Massala, Mango Lassi, and Vegetable Samosas (basically everything we ordered was delicious!). We also really enjoyed the rich lentil soup they gave us at the beginning of the meal. Service isn’t very attentive, but the food food is so worth it!

Our Nepalese friend raved about this restaurant. My co-workers and I went for lunch on a Wednesday. This is a causal family dinning type of restaurant. We were seated right away. Server bought water and menu and explained items when we had questions. Overall, service was good. All the dishes were appropriately spiced and delicious. The sauce and curry went perfectly with the butter/garlic naan or rice. The food was not overly salty and oiled giving one heart burn. We will come back again for a family dinners. One minor note: parking spaces are available but some spaces are small in this shopping complex, so go early.

Food was amazing! Every dish had a generous portion as well. They had a lunch special that was a great deal with tons of food. The butter chicken was delicious and I wish I could remember what my husband got because it was delicious too. Will be back again!

Delicious Nepalese and Indian food. I would have given them 5 stars, had they used tender okra for bhindi masala😉. Cheese naan was amazing though. I wish they add more items to the menu. Service was good and the ambience was nice too.

Food is delicious and always freshly prepared. Our go to's are the chicken/veggie chow mien and veggie Momos. (Beware, the sauce for the Momos is quite spicy!) Lunch special is back and is a good deal! The Chana masala medium spicy was pretty spicy so if you’re sensitive, try one of the other options. (That being said, we do experience inconsistency - so maybe it’s not as bad other times.) chai was good but not super spiced.

So delicious food, food portions are very big, i got appetizer chicken sandheko and it was enough for me, i tried few other foods and everything was so yummy and delicious, they have spice levels up to 5, if you like spice food. Friendly customer service and atmosphere is great
