There seems to be more paneer varieties than anything, but there are a couple meat options for anyone who is looking for that specifically. We were maybe there about an hour and no one else had participated in the buffet, so there was no extra food that came out. But it was closing time anyway so I get that.

The tastes, the smells completely encapsulate you form the first step into the restaurant until your last bite. The prices are fair and the food is delicious.

I did takeout so I could enjoy it back at work. The lunch special is a great value for the portion size. You get two mains which is a vegetable dish plus a protein like chicken or lamb, and choose between naan or rice. I chose the rice which held up well as it soaked up and went with all the sauces. I thought that it was flavorful, satisfying and hearty. Even though my dish was supposed to be spicy it wasn't. They also offer buffet for lunch. It looked like a solid deal at $19.95 and I'll consider dining in for that another time.

Tasty food, good spice levels, and a simple, no-frills setup with basic but clean ambience. Service…read morewas quick and came with a smile, which always makes a difference. The food was fresh, well-spiced, and served piping hot. We ordered all vegetarian--chilli momos, potato with black-eyed peas, bamboo shoot curry, and dal with garlic naan and rice. Everything was flavorful and satisfying. For a bit of nostalgia, we ordered Kingfisher beer, but realized the version here in the U.S. tastes quite different from what you get in India--not quite the same experience. Overall, a solid weekday dinner. Word of caution--if you ask for extra spicy (like I did), they actually deliver on it, so choose wisely! If you're in the area, definitely give this place a try--especially for the food.

Our server was so pleasant and efficient -- he appeared to be the only person working the dining room -- I hate to write anything less than positive. But I really didn't enjoy my meal. My daughter, who's eaten at various restaurants on the strip, was also underwhelmed. We started off with steamed chicken momo (dumplings.) Served with two spicy dipping sauces, we were off to a good start. But then ... -- Chicken tikka, my frequent choice, was over-cooked, under-spiced and dry. When prepared properly the chicken is succulent and flavorful. I appreciated the vegetables from my platter which I mixed with rice, but other than that, a big NO. -- S ordered chicken thali: lentils, rice, mustard spinach, potatoes, salad, achar (a condiment of fermented fruits and vegetables), papadum and kheer (rice pudding.) We both have had better. Unlike family-run Indian restaurants I frequented on E. 6th Street -- none of which remain -- midtown restaurants are a bit more formal often requiring reservations. With no availability at a neighboring restaurant, Taste from Everest could accommodate us when we popped in. By the time we left, every table was occupied with people whose opinions, based on Yelp reviews, likely differ from mine.

We order some of the top three dishes which included the sauteed noodles, the steamed momos, and the chicken curry.   I would like to try the spicy beef next time (looked like other tables were ordering it and I felt jealousy) I did enjoy the flavor of the noodles and the momos. The curry wasn't really anything that stood out to me. Service was fast and there were a few people waiting while we ate. Small place so try to only bring people you like.

I got the Tibetan vegetarian combo platter for the momos and they were pretty good. They had a distinct flavor to it and the sauce for these momos were different. This place was also pretty well priced for the area. They also offer $2 Tibetan butter teas, and they were all right. It felt like I was sipping on or drinking bone broth. The customer service was also fast, our food came out quickly. The server also was informative about the food and answered any questions that we had. It's best to RSVP because this place can get busy as it gets later onto the night. Overall, would recommend this place. They also have good noodles as well! Price: $14.00 Rating: $8.5/10

The chicken tikka masala was very good and the lamb vindaloo was fire. Spicy as heck but not insanely so. The naan was a bit thick. We ordered way too much rice because the DoorDash menu didn't make it clear that our mains came with rice.

Definitely a bit on the spicier side but incredible flavor, beef all cooked well, great presentation on the skillet, so worth it. - Makai Lamb - the lamb itself was incredible; imagine a giant lamb bone with meat falling off into a thin soup-like sauce. The sauce was delicate in flavor, allowing the lamb to really shine and it was delicious. So filling too, a ton of food. Only weird thing, the two chunks of corn cobs felt out of place. Will definitely return, delicious and best done with more people to try more dishes.

They've passed that torch to their sister restaurant, Adda. Not only has their menu changed, but so has the staff. And it doesn't necessarily have to be a bad thing, but in this case, it was. We were recently served by someone who admitted himself that he's only been there for a week. No big deal. Except our first dish took 30 minutes to arrive. Meanwhile the folks to the left and right of us kept getting their food and they ordered after us. When we were done with our first and only dish, I asked our waiter where the rest of the food was, only to find out he didn't fire any of it because he was waiting for us to completely finish. The service was not good. And the food is not nearly as fun and delicious as it used to be. I don't know if I'll be coming back to Dhamaka anymore.

We decided to stick with the chicken sekuwa, the salmon curry and a side of roti. The chicken sekuwa was a great surprise, it came with like a puffed rice that was superglue to eat texturally and went great with the marinated chicken. The fries were not expected but very enjoyable as I love fries. The salmon curry was something very different so I definitely wanted to try that. The curry in itself was on the looser end, more like a soup however, the flavor was really good and the salmon was nice and tender. The roti was a lot more like a tortilla than what I was expecting but it was still enjoyable. Overall the food was definitely new to my palate and super light which I enjoyed and the service was great. The food did take a while to come out but the server did check up on us to let us know as well and helped us with getting sauces that we asked for. I can't wait to try out their momos next time I stop by!

It's definitely larger than the average taco. The tikka masala flavor was amazing - bold and zesty and so flavorful! The naan was also soft and fresh.

I'll be adding this spot to my recommendations for NY visits.

It was a little spicy for my 10 year old, but my other daughter and I finished it with ease. Glad we tried it - food was good and service was quick.
