From what I understand, they had some building issues they were working through, and then their landlord passed away. So we were SO pleasantly surprised to find out they had reopened in a new location... the old Denny's building in Jackson! The best part? The food is still just as delicious as we remembered! They've added a lunch buffet, there's a lot more seating, and the new space looks really nice while still having that familiar feel. Sean got his usual chicken tikka masala, and I decided to try the veggie tikka masala this time. Both were absolutely excellent...packed with that rich, delicious Indian flavor we love. We also got the garlic naan, and everyone at the table enjoyed the whole meal. We're so happy they're back! If you love Indian food, definitely give Taste of Himalaya a try. We'll be back every time we're in town!

I usually only do buffets with Indian food, I guess I just have my fave dishes and that's all I get. The place is nice inside, nothing weird or anything. The buffet runs on the weekends starting on Friday's. I loaded up the on tandoori chicken and the Tikka masala over basmati rice. Naan is included as well. I did like the chicken and it wasn't like some buffets that just use the scrappy pieces for the buffet like backs and rib cages of the chicken. They had the thighs, breasts must be used for something else. The rice was light and fluffy like it's supposed to be and the Tikka Masala was good on it. I had my fill and waddled on out full of tandoori chicken. That's one dish I have no idea how to cook, so I'll do a buffet and eat all I want!

I ordered several items, including the Vegetable Samosa with the chutney sauce, chicken vindaloo and curry chicken. I also ordered the Garlic Naan and butter naan. Everything was Full of Flavor and exceeded my expectations. The atmosphere was very calm and I sat at the bar area and waited for my To-Go order. While I waited, I watched the server make fresh, hand made sodas. He could tell I was curious and asked me if I wanted to Try one, of course I couldn't pass it up. It was a lemon soda, muddled fresh lemon and lime, some sea salt and brown sugar were a few of the ingredients I watched him add, and tasted like a hint of pepper, not sure but absolutely Refreshing! I had gotten the take out for my family, but we had so much, I was able to take some to work for lunch. The kindness and consideration definitely filled my bucket! I highly recommend giving them a Try.

I really…read morevacillated between the 4 and 5 star rank because there are so many things that are right about this restaurant. But there is something missing...? Maybe it's just a wow factor. The food is solid and I've eaten at a LOT of Indian restaurants. Just mostly before doing any reviews it's pretty much my fave, just not a lot where I reside. I digress! Service was good we only waited a few minutes at the front before someone realized we were there and from that point we have been pretty well attended to. Waiter was attentive and its busy Mother's Day Holiday. The ambiance is nice, clean, comfortable, upscale, decor is mood setting, music is spot on. What is boils down to is the food... it's good, but is it the best Indian food I've ever had? Well, sorry no. The base flavor is great, but something felt like it was missing? The vindaloo spicy could be a LOT hotter, and it's got a lot of tomato. Usually when you have the sauces over time the spices just dance in your mouth and you get different hits of things and I felt like something was muted? The back end complexity I'm used to isn't there. But don't get me wrong-we will likely be back because the food is solid and a close enough drive. Great location. Maybe I'm being too hard? But it's one of my favorite foods. The boys loved the hearty large pieces of meat... I was less of a fan but saw their view point, e.g. more filling, less dry. The chutneys, kinda standard fare until you get to that spicy one and then WOW! That's amazing! We got a mild, medium and spicy leveled sauces. For your average foodie that doesn't eat "spicy" food I would say it's spot on... for someone who is looking for something nuclear, how do they request that?? Need to know how to order something REALLY spicy... bring the pain...!!! Barely broke a sweat on the spicy vindaloo and spicy coconut chicken... but tasty! * we talked about it on the way home and we were thinking maybe because it was Mother's Day weekend. There was high demand so the sauces might be a little young too? Might not have had enough time to really flourish and simmer. Naan was yummy and fresh. Chai super flavorful and rich. Lassi was solid great taste, not really chilled so if you are looking for a chilled lassi, just be aware... The other thing I noticed as far as service goes there was nothing that just came out with the meal. I'm kind of spoiled and that I've gone to Indian restaurants... usually have something served on the house like a papadum or naan bread or raita or rice with meal? Granted it's been a little while so maybe this is something that's going away with the times? Hope they will have fennel on the way out. *update they didn't but that's OK. They had candy. :)
