I took my brothers to Everest Kitchen a couple weeks ago and we had a phenomenal meal...we ate family style and got to enjoy Paneer Tikka Masala, Samosas (they were huge!) , Crispy Calamari, Mango Lassis and Biryani. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves Indian, Thai or Chinese food. read more

The food here has always been excellent, until it wasn't. I've had their Pad Thai chicken and shrimp several times and it was fresh, hot and very tasty. Last night's chicken Pad Thai was tasty, spicy and perfectly hot but I got getting this unpleasant gritty feel to my food. Not just the first serving either. It was gritty like sand had been sprinkled on it. The only thing I could think of causing the problem is the green onions not being properly washed which is kinda scary when you think about it. It was annoying to grind my teeth on something gritty every other forkful! Wash your vegetables better guys! read more

Tried this place today after hearing soo many great things! Our friends raved about the Indian food and that's what we tried! Garlic Naan, Spring Rolls & Curry w/lamb & white steamed rice. Everything was really good and I would definitely order all of them again. We even had some cracker like appetizers with three different sauces and that was cool as well. Our daughters had chicken tenders and ff, a decent kids meal option. There are a few more menu items I would like to try the next time I visit. We ate inside and I enjoyed the atmosphere- which is small and intimate. The servers were polite and did a great job checking on us. 7/10 for me! read more

It had been a minute since our last visit to Everest Kitchen, definitely a spot that always is in our rotation. Happy to say if anything has changed it's been for the better! The larger spring rolls are fantastic, Momo as great as always and a meal in their own. I ordered the dragon noodles with Chinese broccoli and chicken as my entree. It was absolutely the best I've had and that's coming from DC where so many good Thai restaurants reside. The pineapple fried rice was fantastic as always. My wife loves the shrimp pad Thai and even in tough economic times I'm happy to say all the serving sizes and protein adds are enough for two full meals. Truly appreciate having such a quality restaurant nearby. Please keep the great food coming! read more

We really enjoyed our dinner at Everest Kitchen and definitely plan to return! The service was quick, food was tasty, and prices were reasonable. It's interesting that they serve other Asian dishes as well, but for now we wanted to stick with the Indian dishes so we could get a feel for their signature dishes. They start you off with two complimentary pieces of papadum and some tasty sauces. Then we ordered a stuffed garlic naan, paneer tikka masala, and navratan korma. The stuffed garlic naan and paneer tikka masala were really good, just as we expected. The navratan korma was something new that we've never tried before. They are vegetables cooked in a sweet, rich, and creamy sauce and it was so good. We can't wait to return! There aren't many Indian restaurants east of Raleigh and Wendell is so lucky to have Everest Kitchen. read more

Food, service and feel of the restaurant were all top notch. Nice fine in any size town, but amazing to find it there. Well worth checking it out. read more

This restaurant honestly now has the best Naan I have ever tasted! No more frozen naan, it's freshly made in-house and absolutely delicious! Not only does something like this put this restaurant a step above the rest, it positively enhances the already excellent entrees and there are apparently more menu changes to come. I look forward to returning! Cheers! read more

Food is great. Servers are kind. I like the combination of Asian cuisine. Well seasoned.

Ordered on uber eats; sooooo excited to have tried this place! 100% authentic Thai/Indian (I ordered Palak Paneer, regular naan, chicken Pad Thai and chili chicken app - all with spicy level = hot!!) it came w a surprise papadum and everything was packaged neatly and secure. Spice level very on point. Very thankful they are on uber eats, it will now be a regular weekly rotation for us! *chefs kiss* read more

A tier. Definition of sleeper. Doesn't look the best, but stellar food. Looking at Everest Kitchen you wouldn't expect to have some of the best Asian food around. Little to no atmosphere, the only things on the wall are AI generated paintings and images. Maybe an RGB strip on the window, sign and that's it. But honestly, their food speaks for themselves. Fresh food, friendly service, and great pricing. Whenever I'm in the mood for Indian food I'll go here, regardless of how far away I am. Eating outside on the Wendell Main St enhances the experience even more. read more

Butter chicken was delicious with great spice! We will definitely be eating here again

Wendell has a secret and it's Everest Kitchen! Delicious food and staffed with pleasant folks. The homemade paneer was excellent in the flavorful tikki masala. The garlic onion naan bread was alone worth the visit. Already looking forward to my next trip! read more

Beef fried rice had a bit of spice but also a weird taste. Chicken stuffed Naan was disappointing not sure there was really chicken. Was expecting something more like an empanada. Not close. Spring rolls also not good. Won't be going back anytime soon. read more

Went here just the other day. Walking in its small but cozy and inviting. The service was great in fact I don't know if it was because we were new faces but a few different staff members came to check on our table simultaneously. They were very patient especially given that I added to my dish and then I ordered a naan bread that wasn't on the menu but they still made it for me and rung it up accordingly so I really appreciate that. The food was awesome , I had the drunk man noodle with some added stuff in it and my partner had the dragon noodle. Both great and also they had this stuff to add some heat to the dish and it was very fresh and delicious and adds just the right amount of spice read more

Always great food..never a bad meal. Fast, friendly service. Bar is nice. Chicken Tika came out grilled, sizzling with onions, peppers and lemon. Deelish! read more

My wife and I stopped in on our way back from a football game in Raleigh. The vibe is really cool. My wife had the shrimp lomein and I had the drunk man noodles, both were great. The service was a little slow but overall we had a great experience. Better service would've put it at 5 stars. We will definitely go back! read more

Have ordered twice from here, it's nice that you can order Chinese, Thai and Indian food from one spot. We have tried all three cuisines and they do not disappoint. read more

This was my first and last time coming here. I heard nothing but good about this place so I decided to give it a try. When arrived, I was not greeted (but the other customers coming and going where) the guy at the registered was not friendly. I waited patiently for my food with the intent of leaving a $20.00 tip (my original bill was $24.00) and me saying thank you and smiling he said nothing. The wings were over cooked and the shrimp fried rice had no flavor. I felt like I was not welcome there so I will not return. And I kept my $20.00 I was going to leave. The servicer was not nice or polite (my opinion) If I could rate them on a scale of 1 - 10, I will give them a -2 Server was GOpi 5/3/23 6:02:07 PM read more

I am so glad I discovered this place! I tried some of the Indian food and it was the best I've had in a long time. Especially the chicken korma and the garlic naan. Just delicious. I have yet to find decent south- or east-Asian food in Clayton, and luckily this place delivers all the way from Wendell. Thanks! read more

I have driven through Wendell a number of times and never even saw this place but found it on Yelp when searching for Indian food. It was a hidden gem for sure! Lots of menu choices and the food was delicious! We ordered medium spicy level and it was quite warm, so if you don't like it hot, play it safe. I would definitely go back every time I visit the area. read more

Don't go there if you're looking for Chinese food. Even if you order Chinese it still tastes like India food. If you like Indian food you'll be okay. read more

I ordered and showed up at the pick up time, but it took an extra 35 minutes for it to be ready. The guy at the counter just kept saying 2 more minutes about five times, when I asked if it was ready. No apology or discount or here's a coupon for next time. read more

I got food delivered from here and I can only imagine it fresh! This place is top notch and my new go to for great Asian cuisine, speaking of which I love their diverse offering of Chinese, Thai and Indian, covering all the delicious bases the dumplings and they were so juicy and herby. There are 2 dipping sauces offered with them-tamarind and tomato. Both well made, the tamarind is on the sweeter side and the tomato has a really nice spice, creaminess to it. I also ordered the drunk man noodles at a medium spice level. It tastes very fresh, like I'm sitting in someone's kitchen and they just slid me the dish. I appreciate the spice levels are pretty accurate. I like spice, but I don't want my tastebuds scorched off and unable to enjoy my meal and the medium delivered for me! So happy I found this place read more

We eat here weekly, since there aren't a ton of places in our area. But the Indian and Thai food are definite hits. Our favs are the pad Thai (with shrimp or chicken) and Thai curry panang. We get either medium or hot, depending on our tastes. I personally prefer the medium. Sometimes the servers can be a little terse, but they aren't usually in a rush since this place stays pretty busy. I recommend calling if you want your takeout order faster, because the online service will take at least 40 min. Prices might be considered high ($14-17), but you do get enough food for 2-3 people in each dish, depending on how much you eat. We always have leftovers. read more

Love that I can have a Thai dish while my husband has an Indian dish. I enjoy the Drunken Noodles. Servers are attentive. We have eaten in at least 5 times and it's normally quiet and clean, I've never been unhappy with my order. Seems very popular for take out. read more

Wow, so, I ordered ramen from Everest for delivery via Uber Eats. The description of the menu item is "Japanese Style Ramen Noodle Soup with vegetable and your choice of protein". What I got was what was definitely over cooked top ramen noodles you get from Walmart where a pack of 20 costs like $10 with some frozen vegetables tossed in with some meat. Absolutely not Japanese ramen not even creatively cooked. This is nasty and they should be ashamed. read more

Everest Kitchen - Japanese Spicy Ramen - Indian Near Me - Wendell, North Carolina

The store had an open sign in the window and closed sign on the door. Since the door was opened, we walked in and asked if they were indeed open. It was tempting to walk away after the unclear answer and the unpleasant smell that greeted us. We order two dishes to share between the three of us. For the prices, I anticipated the portions would be comparable to other Asian restaurants. What arrived was a bit smaller and left no concern about leftovers. For an Asian fusion restaurant, both dishes from different regions were good. The Pad Thai dish had good flavor but not quite authentic and small in portion. Chicken Tikka Marsala was better,very flavorful. read more

Great variety and all dishes were flavorful. Something to accommodate all taste buds from picky eaters to those who like to step outside the box and try something different. read more

I took my wife there for her birthday as her eye doctor recommended the place. We got there and no other diners were there. We had great table by the window to look out at all the happenings. We ordered MO MO dumplings and Samosas as appetizers. While waiting the waiter bought elephant wafers, a thin crispy wafer and 3 different sauces for spreading. I am now hooked on elephant wafers and spread. IT was great. The dumplings and samosa's were awesome. Now our food arrived, my wife had lamb kabobs as big as my fist and they were still sizzling on a bed of peppers and onions. The rice and sauce came out and I tasted the lamb, it was soooooooo tender and great tasting. I ordered Balti with chicken that came in a copper type bucket, along with garlic naan. Can you say FAB-U -LUS. We washed it all down with Thai iced tea. I have traveled professionally to too many countries to name and count and have eaten in all. This place is in my top 5. The service was great and the food amazing. I can't wait to take a few friends. read more

If you're unsure, just give it a try. For a small town, this place is amazing. My go-to order is the mild glass noodles with chicken. With a little drizzle of Sriacha, you cannot go wrong. I've gone here with family and each time there are no complaints. I will also add service is fantastic. Since the pandemic, I have been ordering online and doing pickup. There was one instance part of my order was missing. They were extremely apologetic and had our missing food ready when I went back to pick it up. Guys go for it, you won't be disappointed. read more

Everest Kitchen - Glass noodles. - Indian Near Me - Wendell, North Carolina

The food was amazing! This will be a regular for us. But I have it tell you, plan accordingly. The wait is long but well worth it. This place is a true gem in Downtown Wendell. Inside has a divey feel with a bar and not too much seating. To go orders will take a minimum of an hour long. Ours took longer so we had a chance to wait Inside the restaurant and look around. We tried the Drunken Noodles, 6o clock spicy beef fried rice, and the eggplant Holy Basil. The noodles were ordered at medium and had the slightest spice to them. I love the way the chicken was cut in them, not thick or in large chunks- almost shredded but not quite. The fried rice had a kick to it ordered at spicy. The bites of basil were perfect and the scrambled egg was cooked perfectly with it. The beef was tender and the perfect ratio of beef to rice. The star dish was the vegetable eggplant holy Basil. We ordered hot and it was hot!! But I loved it. I loved all the fresh veggies and savory-ness of the dish. It wasn't overly sweet like I've had in other restaurants when you order something with eggplant. I'll be going back for sure but ordering when I'm not hungry so that by the time the food is ready, I'll be hungry. read more

Great menu choices and everything is amazing! The service is friendly and food is always consistent! Love this gem.

This place is amazing. They have delicious food! We haven't had a bad meal. They serve anything from Indian, Chinese, Thai, to American food. They also have mixed drinks and beers on tap. Cute little atmosphere and outside seating available. My family and I come here or order take out at least once per week. The staff are friendly! We hope this place is here to stay. It's a great addition to the Wendell area and the best Indian food in the area. It's nice to be able to dodge the Raleigh crowds and be able to get tasty food without the hassle. read more

The owners are oblivious and the food is mediocre. We've given this place 3 tries and they lost us for good on round 3. It's worth looking elsewhere unless you like neon red Phad Thai and spiceless food! read more

Limited seating. Decor was alright. Service was mediocre. Lost 1 star because I ordered the lunch special that was supposed to come with a spring roll, as written in the menu, and they would not serve it to me. They lost the second star because they tried to charge me for dinner when I ordered off the lunch menu. The food was decent but the chicken was pre cooked resulting in it to be tough and dry. read more

We have eaten there several times. The food is outstanding and the people are very nice
