Wonderful food and service. We've gone two weeks in a row as had appointments in the area on a Monday and the Nepali restaurant we usually go to is closed on Monday. We are so glad we found it. We love getting a lunch Thali and theirs is fabulous. The spice is just right and the food is delivered hot and fresh to the table. Yummy tea. Attentive staff. read more

Himalayan Nepali Restaurant delivered a fantastic dining experience and easily earns five stars from our visit. We came on a Friday evening and had about a 20-minute wait, but it was absolutely worth it once we were seated. Service stood out right away. Our waiter checked on us regularly and made sure our water glasses were always full, which is a small thing but goes a long way during a busy night. We started with ginger tea, which was warm, fragrant, and a great way to kick off the meal. For food, we ordered two appetizers, along with the chicken korma and butter chicken, and everything was phenomenal. The flavors were rich and comforting. One detail I appreciated was that the rice came in individual servings instead of one large shared bowl, which made it easier for everyone at the table. Great food, attentive service, and worth the wait, we'll definitely be back! read more

Himalayan Nepali Cuisine - Chicken Tikka Masala & Boneless Lamb Korma & Garlic Naan - Himalayan/Nepalese Near Me - Cary, North Carolina

It's been a while since I had Nepali food so I was stoked to see that there's a small, family-owned restaurant here in Cary, NC. Himalayan Nepali Cuisine is located in a little strip so there is plenty of room for parking and I love how there's a Tibetan/Himalayan gift shop right next door! Right when we walked in, we were seated and served some warm sweet ginger tea and papad which is a thin/crispy Nepali flatbread-cracker. We ordered the following: Chicken Momo Nepali Chicken Curry Garlic Naan Everything was delicious! The chicken filling inside the momo was yummy and the curry sauce was slightly tangy and spicy from the tomatoes and chilis. The only thing I wish was different was the temperature- the momo's were a little lukewarm so I wish it was higher in temperature but this was still a solid dish! The Nepali Chicken Curry also had that spicy/tangy flavor from all the ingredients and spices. The chicken pieces were juicy, tender, and went well with the rice and garlic naan. Speaking of naan, this was my sister and I's favorite. The naan was crispy on the outside with a nice chewiness on the inside. And the garlic seasoning on top was just *chef's kiss*. Overal, Himalayan Nepali Cuisine had attentive/kind service and delicious, affordable food made with love and care- what more could you ask for :)! read more

I always get food from this place. Love the tea and the butter chicken. Has always been a solid option.

This so far has been the best Nepali/Indian food I've had in the Triangle. The service was so friendly and attentive. The food was hot and came out in a good amount of time. And the portions were so generous for the price. I can't wait to go back and try more read more

I came here for the first time last week and the owner was super welcoming. It looks like a family business but it was clean and cozy. The food was delicious! The garlic nan was flavorful, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, the goat curry was flavorful and not gamey at all, the Momo was delicious as well. The complimentary ginger tea was also tasty. Overall I'd definitely comeback and recommend everyone to come. Everything in the restaurant is Halal which was a big bonus since one of my friend is a Muslim. read more

May, in NC for daughter's Duke graduation. Had reservations elsewhere, but fell through and ended up here. NO regrets. Nice mix of Indian and Nepalese cuisine, and everything was very good. Had a bunch of stuff and it was all good: Chili Chicken Momo; Chicken Tika masala; Nepali Style Chili Potatos, Nepali Tarkari; Samosas, read more

I wasn't blown away by the experience or the food, but it definitely is good quality South Asian cuisine. They serve ginger tea while you are waiting for your food, which is one shwae thing they have going for them:) The portion sizes were a little smaller than I expected for the price, but again, the main dishes we ordered did not disappoint. The garlic naan was a bit underwhelming, as it tasted somewhat flavorless without dipping into a curry or daal. I will say I do want to come back to give it a second chance and to have that yummy tea again ah! read more

Himalayan Nepali Cuisine - Butter Chicken - Himalayan/Nepalese Near Me - Cary, North Carolina

We wanted to try a new restaurant and stumbled upon Himalayan Nepali Cuisine. Everything on the menu has allergens noted, which is helpful for us because we are dairy free. We started with the vegetarian pakora, which were cooked perfectly. Our mains were the lamb curry and chicken kadai with roti. All of the dishes were flavorful and cooked perfectly. They served us ginger honey tea at no cost that was perfect for a chilly day. The staff were kind and attentive. The restaurant is unassuming and on the corner of a shopping center. There is a one stall gender neutral bathroom. read more

Hands down, this spot is my absolute favorite place for incredible Nepali cuisine in the Triangle. The service here is incredible every time we go; our cups are always filled with their delicious house-made complimentary, sweet yet spiced, Nepali black tea (I love this tea so much that I have to ask for a refill to go), the waiter always has amazing suggestions for dishes depending on our mood, plus every dish I have at Himalayan Nepali Cuisine is phenomenal. Our Chili Chicken appetizer (spice level 3 out of 7) is my new obsession. The chicken bites are fried to perfection and tossed in a chili pepper based sauce with peppers and onion (OMG so good). I loved how massive the veggie samosas were; truly a meal in itself. It paired well with the cilantro based sauce and even better with the side of chilli sauce. The outside was crispy and the inside was almost fluffy with massed potatoes and various root veggies and spices. I had steamed chicken mono for the first time and I think I'm hooked. I loved how each dumpling was steamed well and filled with a mixture of ground chicken, spices and came with a side of chutney. Over the past month, my bf and I have gone back at least 3 times from Raleigh to Cary just to enjoy the welcoming atmosphere and dishes at this wonderful restaurant. read more

The restaurant is located in the corner of an older Plaza complex by downtown Cary. It is a small restaurant and so it is the best to call in advance to reserve a table when we arrived at around 5:45 PM on Saturday, the restaurant was packed. We were seated immediately and handed our menus. They provide water and warm tea on arrival. Within a few minutes our waiter came. He was very attentive and helped us with our food choices. What was nice about the menu is that they inform us of the food allergen associated with each meal. The appetizer arrived not too long after we ordered our meal. Our main courses arrive shortly after the food was delicious and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. It is our first visit to this restaurant and certainly not our last. We think this is the best tasting Indian/Nepalese Himalayan restaurant in the area! read more

Himalayan Range Nepali Restaurant INTRO: Small Indian restaurant located in Cary. Aloo Gobi ($9.99)- Flavor was good but a tad on the spicier side and came with rice. The cauliflower and potatoes were cooked thoroughly and were tender. Able to feed two people. Naan ($3.50)- Complimented nicely with the Aloo Gobi and was an alternate option to just the rice. Parking/ Location- Located in a small shopping center off of Maynard Road with plenty of parking in the middle. Went at a busier time and it was not a hassle to get into or to find parking. Ambience and Service- Small restaurant with simple look. Service was good and didn't have to wait long for food to arrive. read more

We came here on a Saturday night, arrived by 6pm and added our name to the wait list. We sat down at around 7:15. We got Himalayan tea and the mango lassis to start which were both very good. We also got an appetizer, the govi Manchurian which was also great! Service was very friendly but you can tell they were overwhelmed. We didn't get our food until 8:30 so it was a very long wait. The food was good but we will won't be back for dinner service. We may try earlier times to see if we fare better. Also, beware of the spice levels, they have 1-7 and level 2 and 3 are pretty spicy read more

We got some take out with friends, and we ordered the following: Vegetable Samosas - good flavor, no real complaints about them. Lamb Mango Curry - nice big chunks of lamb, but the sauce was a bit too sweet for me. Saag Paneer - this was probably my favorite dish, because it's less spinach-y and more creamy than most saag paneers. It had great flavor too. Chicken Tandoori - the chicken was unfortunately dry and I wasn't too impressed by it. Chicken Kadai - I liked the spice level of the rice, and the chicken was tender, moist, and well marinated. Garlic Naan - not much flavor, and a bit dry and flaky for my liking. It came with white basmati rice. For the price, the value and amount of food we got was good. I am open to returning to try different dishes, but probably won't be getting the Chicken Tandoori again. Also, we placed the order over the phone, and then went to pick up our order about 20 minutes later, only to have to wait at the restaurant another 20 minutes for our food. I understand it was a bigger order, but it seems this is consistent with other reviews as well - the service is on the slower side so if you are looking for something quicker, this may not be the best option. read more

I tried out this restaurant and was VERY impressed with the portion sizes and cost. We got several appetizers at our table as well as entrees and our bill was very reasonable. I really enjoyed the Gobi Manchurian appetizer and the dumplings. We also got the naan and the portions were, again, generous. We got 2 orders for 3 people and had several extra slices. We got the butter chicken and the chicken tikka Marsala. Unfortunately, neither entree had a ton of flavor/spices which was surprising. The portion sizes were generous but flavoring was a little bland. My 4 starts is for the cost/portion and cleanliness but the lack of flavor on entrees kept it from being a 5 star experience. I'd definitely be open to returning and trying additional entrees and seeing if the flavor profiles improve! read more

Easily the best Indian (or Indian adjacent) food in the triangle. Very vegan and vegetarian friendly, with allergens clearly labeled on all menu items. The ginger lemon tea is perfect and especially crave-able on chilly days. They offer a spice level of 1-7 with 3 being a perfect medium for me. I particularly love the chili fried momos, Chana masala, and garlic naan. A friend who I eat here with often is partial to the saag paneer. The thali is also a great value at lunch time if you want to sample a little bit of everything. My only gripe is that it's a 25ish minute drive from my house. How about a second location in eastern wake?! Here's to hoping! read more

Last Sunday wife and I went searching for some different food in Chatham Plaza and choose Himalayan Nepali Cuisine. They started us off with a basket of lentil crackers and marinaded chopped onions along with hot spiced tea, complimentary. Wow. We ordered the Nepalese Boneless Chicken, Boneless Lamb Vindaloo and a side of garlic naan. Both dishes were spiced exactly as requested, the meats tender and potatoes perfectly cooked in the Vindaloo. The garlic naan, a recommendation by the server was just right for dipping in the sauce adding a nice crunchy juxtaposition for the soft meat and accompanying side of long rice. The service was polite and I noticed how helpful staff were in helping a young couple with the baby seat. The bathroom was clean although shared (male and female,) which is to be expected in a restaurant with such a small footprint. We are looking forward to visiting here again soon, as well as occasionally getting take out. read more

Came here a few months back and absolutely loved this place! The restaurant is clean and plenty of seating inside, with a very casual feel to it. Had no idea Nepalese food was so good and flavorful. They really cater to different eating preferences such as many seafood, chicken, lamb, vegetarian and vegan options, their menu certainly reflects that. For apps we picked up the 6 Vegetable Pakora-fried but not oily at all, but delicious! Nepali Style chili potato-good flavor and spice. For main courses, the Nepali Style Chana Masala and Nepali Tarkari, both very good flavor and spice-delicious! Many of their main courses come with Basmati rice which is cooked very well and fluffy! We are big on getting good customer service wherever we go and the service has been excellent both times we've been here. We are certainly no experts but we know good flavorful food when we taste it and we highly recommend this place to anyone that loves Nepalese food or is trying it for the first time, your taste buds will Thank you for it!!! read more

Wow! I loved this restaurant. The service was fantastic. They regularly came by our table and refilled our drinks; we never had to ask. The food was so rich and tasty. I loved the deep flavors. It is an intimate environment and very comfortable. They keep the room quite cold, so being a hoodie or sweater to keep warm. I will definitely be back! read more

Met up with some friends on a quiet Wednesday night. Heard good things about this place and wasn't disappointed. Veggie and Chicken Momos to start, Goat Curry and Aloo Govi to finish. All of them were excellent and the waiter was spot-on with the spiciness recommendations. (3 out of 7, for some heat but not overwhelming) Would definitely go back and try other dishes. Ambience is nothing fancy, but you go for the food! read more

We come here all the time, one of our favorite vegetarian food spots and so friendly.

We randomly decided to visit our old spot after seeing consistently good reviews recently, and we're glad we did. The govi manchurian had a light, crisp batter and the sauce was perfectly sweet and tangy. The chili fried momo was amazing, and is one of our new favorite dishes. The Nepali chicken curry was homey and inviting, with a lovely gingery tomato sauce. The lamb korma, peshwari naan, and gulab jamun were all nice as well. The only dish we would skip next time was the rice pudding, which was a bit bland, but otherwise we really enjoyed our meal and can't wait to go back. read more

Such delicious food, outstanding and kind waiters. Curry, momos, and other dishes were excellent. Can't wait to come back.

I genuinely don't understand all the high ratings. Yes, the complimentary ginger lemon tea is lovely (although too sweet by half) and the papadams are tasty (because they always are) but that's about it. Chili fried momos - Okay, but that's about it. Some flavor from the tomato sauce but not much else, including heat. Inoffensive. Lamb Korma - The best of the lot but that's not saying much. Mango Lamb - Waaaay too sweet. I obviously don't object to fruit with meat but the amount of added sugar was excessive and unnecessary. Chicken Vindaloo - Ordered as a 5 out of 7 spice-wise, it was more like a 1 or 2 out of 7. Vindaloo should burn your socks off. This dish was unrecognizable as vindaloo. No heat, no vinegar flavor, too much cinnamon, and to add insult to injury, the chicken appeared to be cut up leftover tandoori chicken (complete with red dyed outside) just tossed with the sauce. Garlic Naan - Meh. The food was fresher than your average AYCE Indian buffet but it was certainly no better tasting. Two stars because the prices were reasonable and the service was good. read more
