    Buffet
    Jeremy C.

    Finally an Indian buffet after covid!!! It's amazing to me that some restaurants have refused to change back to what made them popular in the first place. Indian food is just one of those food genres that works perfectly buffet style. It's rich, so i don't need a ton of one particular thing and the way that different dishes all complement one another is simply magical to my palate. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for the buffet! On to the food. The food is absolutely perfect! The pakoras were decadent, tandoori chicken was succulent, and the chicken curry was perfectly spiced. Not a single negative about my first Yeti experience. Restaurant was clean and nicely decorated, wait staff was accommodating and welcoming. Couldn't ask for anything more, I was there Monday and I am ready to go back today, Friday! Yeti you have an official regular.

    My husband and I tried Himalayan Yeti to go for the first time a couple of weeks ago. The food was good overall, but I was underwhelmed by the chicken tikka masala - it almost tasted sweet and had virtually no spice in it (this could be a result of online ordering?). I would be eager to go in person and try more of their menu. However, our lamb Khorma was quite tasty. The strawberry lassi and garlic naan also were mid in my opinion, so I'd like to go in person and see if that changes anything.

    The lunch buffet was stocked with traditional favorites - tikka masala, paneer saag, naan, tandoori chicken. It also boasted goat curry, noodles and a wide variety of sauces and chutneys. Complementary hot chai paired nicely for dessert with rice pudding and gulab jamun. Flavors of every dish were lovely, staff was quick to refill water and remove used plates. A solid lunch buffet!

    Came for lunch buffet and it was good! Good variety of foods and delicious flavors with tender meat options. Price was good, though the only thing I might complain about is that the bhatura was hard possibly from sitting out. Otherwise the experience was great.

    I have to write a review because they truly went above and beyond on our DoorDash order last night. We ordered the Chicken Chili appetizer, Navratan Korma, Paneer Tikka Masala, and cheese garlic Naan. My boyfriend is gluten-free, so we noted that at well. (The Naan was strictly for me.) We received a call from Himalayan yeti shortly after, confirming whether we knew the Chili Chicken and Naan had gluten in it. Obviously we knew about the Naan, but it was really nice they gave us a heads up about the Chili Chicken app. We switched it to the Lamb Choila instead. Everything was delicious and we'll definitely be ordering from there again soon. So disappointed, I forgot to take pictures of our food, but it was all spectacular!

    Chai, rose water rice pudding and the grated carrots and nuts in a sweet sauce or Gajar ka Halwa or "Gajrela".

    Enjoyed our dinner. I wanted some lentil soup and it was delicious. The staff were busy. The booths could use some reupholstering. Small interior, but good food.

    Wood piece in Chicken Korma

    I loved this place but, unfortunately, I will not be eating here again. I ordered from DoorDash and the chicken korma had a large piece of wood in it. Other than this I have no complaints. I just don't know how a chunk of wood wasn't noticed to be missing. The wood is clean because I washed it off to make sure it wasn't a bone or something. I didn't check the rest of the batch to see if there was more. Edit: I keep adding the picture and then it is deleted. Idk why

    We love Indian food, but have never had Nepali food before. Momo was delicious and just the right amount of spiciness. Lamb dishes are tender and flavorful. Good amount of food- we were stuffed!

    Decent food, good service and very reasonably priced. Vegetable Momo (6 pieces) $7 - Would order again, these are like a cross between samosa and dumplings. You can get them steamed or fried, and the dipping sauce complimented them very well. Butter Chicken $15.50 - The sauce was more tomatoey than others I have had. It comes with a side of basmati rice, which was a bit dry. Bhindi Masala $13 - This okra dish is not as flavorful as I would like, but still tasty. Kheer $3.50 - Ok rice pudding. Gulab Jamun (3 pieces) $4 - This dessert is great if you're looking for that sugar rush. Similar to others I have tried, basically donut holes covered in syrup. Saw a sign for lunch buffet Mon-Fri $16 and Sat & Sun $18. As an added bonus, this restaurant is located right by the Greetings from St. Louis mural if you are looking for a photo op. .|\---/| | @_@ | ..\_^_/..2024

    Tasty food! The servers were quick and helpful. It was more of a carry out restaurant than dine in. The restaurant had inside and outside seating. We got biryani and tandoori chicken and it was very good

    Great Lunch Buffet. Lots of vegan options. Very authentic and family run restaurant.

    Buffet options: tikka masala, chili chicken, Saag Paneer, Naan
    Derek S.

    Don't let the outside fool you, this place is solid!! The service is very friendly and quick to seat you and get you your drinks. The ambiance is welcoming but the inside could use a refresh (but let's be honest, the food is so good it doesn't matter). I opted for the buffet, which was a surprise to me that they had it. I tried everything on the menu and I didn't find a single thing I didn't like! The tikka, saag, chili chicken, all of it was great! My wife opted to order butter chicken and it was a delight also. This place is a must try if you are in the area.

    I loved this cozy family-run restaurant in the North Hampton neigborhood. We had very nice dinner on a Thursday night. The wait staff was friendly and helpful. Our party of four shared Chicken Tikka Masala, Saag Paneer, Baigan Bharta, and Roasted Tiger Prawn. We ordered medium spice, and for me that was perfect, but spicier than I normally would consider "medium". The Tikka Masala and Saag Paneer were flavorful and consistent with my expectations. I especially enjoyed the Baigan Bharta as this is a dish that I don't normally order. It is a popular North Indian dish, and is mash of fire-roasted eggplant, onions, tomatoes, herbs and spices. Very delicious. The Roasted Tiger Prawn were also memorable. The generious serving of seasoned shrimp are served sizzling on a skillet like tandori chicken straight off the grill. Very tasty. This was plenty of food for our party, and we were able to enjoy leftovers the next day.

    Loved the food and ambiance. And the heat (spice) is legit. The lamb coconut and saffron rice were amazing. Will definitely be back.

    On the way to the airport and craving something unique. Food was outstanding and the service was greasy. My new go to spot when in STL.

    Really good! With…read moreanother couple and we all really Liked the food. Service was great as well. We had the Korma and Matar Paneer, both vegetarian. They were great! Some Indian restaurants just cannot get the flavors to be right. We samples our friends dishes and again, really good. I think that this place and Saffron Indian are our favorites in town. Definitely check them out.

    Arrived around 2:15 pm on a Saturday, and we knew the buffet was closing, so husband ran inside to…read morecheck to make sure there was enough food left. He saw enough so we got a table and went to the buffet. There was just 1 other table finishing their meal, and a couple people came for take out while we ate. We wanted to eat as quickly as possible so no photos. The naan container on the buffet was empty so the lady working said she would bring naan and rice to the table. She also asked if the food was still hot since she had already turned off the buffer heaters before we got there. We tried almost everything. The meats were well spiced outside but dry inside; likely they weren't marinated. Nothing was too spicy-hot for me, but the fritters and lentil soup were too salty, though I am more salt sensitive than others. I dipped the fritters in mango chutney. Husband is unlikely to try the buffet again, but I may go with my college student when she's back over break, since she loves Indian and the price here is not too high. Of course we'll go at the beginning of buffet time!
