    Old dried out chicken Tikka masala
    Noelani T.

    So first and foremost,the fragrance is amazing from this restaurant,the pictures on the web are most inviting. HOWEVER, I ordered the chicken Tikka masala w/ garlic naan and rice.This was my first time going, and I am very disappointed. I walked in placed my order to-go and was advised I would be waiting for 25 minutes. And for some fresh food I don't consider that wait time bad at all. When I got my food it was very hot,so I assumed it was fresh. Unfortunately this was NOT the case. Everything was old. 1. The naan bread was wrapped in foil, even taking a piece of the bread out as I received my order,it was chewy and a tad bit hard as if a pizza crust being heated up too long in the microwave.( y'all know what I'm talking about.) It was definitely not fresh and cooked to order. 2 the rice was also dry,and not the dryness when you just finished it and it's cooled off and you did an amazing job because you didn't add too much water and you can tell it's just steamed. This was dry as in; I made rice last night in the rice cooker and decided to add a little water this morning to bring it back to life,their was a certain hardness to it that screamed " not fresh" . 3 . The chicken Tikka masala: very flavorful, but this chicken was dried o, ut and old,no where in a million years was this fresh or cooked to order. You know how chicken is white and cooked when you pull it apart,this chicken was dried out and you could see the fibers as if you were pulling apart beef jerky that was cooked in sauce ,it's almost as if it had been sitting all day under a warmer as if you ate some chicken at a buffet,or if it were cooked early in the morning and sat all day in some sauce,but the sauce wasnt thin enough to help it maintain its moisture while it sat under some type of constant heat source. And the last example that explains it best..but I hope is not true ; when you cook some chicken the night before on the grill, take it out the fridge ,heat it up in the microwave, and when it comes out its extra dry and you pull it apart like beef jerky..it was EXACTLY that texture but smothered in sauce.. if i am going to wait 25 minutes for old food,then i am entitled to write a review. The overall price was 15 dollars and some change ,which I would of been very pleased with IF the food was cooked to basic standards of a restaurant claiming " cuisine" in the name. They should change the name to Himalayan Aroma Leftovers. And as the flavors are definitely there. The quality is inconsistent and lacking extremely. This was undoubtedly my first and last time going. Gordon Ramsay would shut them down for even claiming they are a restaurant.

    Stay away. They are inconsistent! We got served gizzard

    There is no point in staying open till 2am if you guys can't afford to provide service that is consistent with the industry standards. The meat was uncooked to say the least if we ignore the fact that you served us mutton gizzard. If you wish to capitalize on customers who would come in till 2am for Indian food then hire some professional chefs and work staff. For now it just seems like entrapment.

    You wanna have typical Nepali momos? This is the best place to be. They are delicious, hot and juicy. They took sometime to be prepared but trust me the wait time was worth it. I wasn't a big fan of the chowmein. I would recommend the chilly momos and steamed for sure. Also they do not have chopsticks cuz honestly the desi momos you need to have using your fingers or fork! The place is small and not fancy. Simple and nice to enjoy your food. The food tasted fresh as well.

    I enjoy coming to this spot its convenient as far as location and food is fair. So far I've tried the veggie lowmein, veggie rice bahini (think that's how its spelled) and soup I wasnt to crazy about the tofu though so that's always pushed aside . As customer service and cleanliness; the girls were friendly and let you sit where ever and continued to check if we needed anything. Restuarant I like the set up and everything looked up to date, but I didn't get a chance to see the kitchen. Also I like their little stage, I'm curious if they have karaoke or special events hmm someone find out for me lol. So far so good no real complaints.

    Veg thali

    I've never had Nepal food before. We stopped in to try it and everything was delicious. The waitress helped us with some recommendations. I had chicken chow mein and my husband had veg thali. Both were delicious! The chicken momo dumplings were so good! The only thing I would say is it needs some cleaning, but the food was really good! Glad we stopped!

    My rating is price vs. taste & quality of food. This place has amazing quality of food with very authentic taste. I tried the chicken thali, every item on the plate was very tasty and fresh. Except for the Chicken, every item can be topped up again. The lady who was serving us was very courteous and prompt. There were total 8 items in the thali; saag, dry squash curry, dal, papad, cauliflower curry, bamboo shoot curry, chicken curry and rice 2nd visit, very good as expected. Place got renovated and it feels better. Tried veg thali and mutton thali; both came off very nice.

    Jhol chicken momos: Hot steamed momos dipped in a cold soup.

    They serve one the finest momos. We were in a group and so tried all varieties of chicken momos. Chili chicken fried momos were the best tasting. Service and hospitality is very welcoming. I highly recommend this place for momos for anyone visiting Arlington area.

    I am a momo lover and this is my go to place in Dallas. Love the Nepalese cuisine here. The food tastes awesome, huge portion for every meal and the staff is so friendly. The portion and quality of the food is unbeatable for the price. Recently they redecorates the place with a small stage for live performance and overall the ambiance has a good vibe now. Would recommend this place for Nepalese food lovers and for momo lovers like me, would definitely keep going back there.

    I have now been to this restaurant several time. Food including Thali, Taas, etc. is pretty decent. However, service here is abysmal. I feel like Waiters have never been trained or have much sense for service. For example, the last time we went no one checked up on us till we were done eating. We got our check after paying, Waiter left in our table from some distance. Waiters almost make any eye contact or don't even show that they care. Also, cleanliness is not the best. Our table was clean but underneath the table there was a napkin & other stuff on floor. Seating booths were had some food & seems greasy.

    Nasty ass momo.

    Nepalese cooking, similar to Indian and Bangladesh. Have their own specialties. Good if you want something different. Very pleasant service.

    Southern Spice is a solid 4 star Indian restaurant in Las Colinas, which is full of similar…read moreoptions, due primarily to great value. I haven't had vada pav sliders before but the filling is kind of like fried samosa filling without the dough. It's good. The serving size of the biryani was very impressive. You can see from the photo that they fill the container and then add another mound of rice on top of that - basically 2 servings (we took one home). And they didn't skimp on the chicken either! The chicken is cooked perfectly, the sauces are a great complement and this is an excellent dish. The Lunch Thali gives you a lot of bang for your buck and mine included ~5 pieces of fish fry, about the same amount of veg pakora, yogurt dip, chicken curry with rice, 2 different soups, a naan/tortilla thing, and a carrot dessert (like a halwa). All had good flavor and the soups have a nice spicy kick to them. However, since all the dishes for the thali come off the lunch line (ie all premade), the tortilla, fish and pakoras had been sitting out for awhile and not too hot. Had they come out fresh from the fryer, I might have given this experience 5 stars. As it stands, I'll probably be back for lunch anyways - and the thali is available 7 days a week!

    Very nice decor and clean restaurant! The menu is quite interesting! We came on a Thursday night…read morearound 930PM and it was empty. We thought it was because they were maybe closing soon! But they said they are open till 12! We sat down and ordered a veg avakai biriyani. The portion was huge! The flavours were great but it was so spicy! (And we like spicy food but it was a little too spicy for us!) the raita was certainly helpful but we couldn't finish it!

The inside of the restaurant is not much to speak of, no real ambience, uncomfortable chairs janky tables, etc..but they do a tremendous amount of carryout business which speaks to their good food. I had Butter Chicken with garlic naan one night and Lamb Tikka Masala with onion kulcha another night. I really enjoyed the Garlic Naan and the Lamb Tikka Masala. Both were flavorful and delicious. Butter chicken was a little bland, and the onion culture was very loaded with onions, a little bit too much for me, but if you LOVE onions then get it. All in all a good spot worthy of a return visit.
