Himalayan Cuisine

Great food and atmosphere, but service could be better. Waiter slammed items on the table when serving, including placing them on our plates or on other things on the table which was weird. Also, we were asked to leave the restaurant at closing while we just finished eating. Good food though, would recommend ordering online at least.

Food was amazing! We had the chicken tikka, butter chicken, yellow and white rice, and the garlic naan. They also gave us Dahl soup as an appetizer. Everything was a 10/10! Service was also great, everyone was very nice and on top of everything. The decor and lighting gave a nice ambience to this restaurant. I’ll definitely be back! :) Side note, my friend and I were talking and hanging out and didn’t even realize the time or that they were closing, and they were so kind not even rushing us out of there, but we ended up just realizing they were closing so got up anyways and cashed out. 5 ⭐️

We had an incredible experience at this place. The food was absolutely amazing—high quality, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every bite was a delight! The service was equally outstanding; the staff was friendly, attentive, and genuinely committed to making sure I had a fantastic visit. I highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for great food and top-notch service. I can’t wait to return!

I stopped in on a Saturday and the staff and food were wonderful. It is really good food and I walked away with left overs even after over eating. If you enjoy good Indian and want to support a local business then I would strongly recommend.

This place is very authentic and phenomenal with flavor! It’s cost efficient too and they get the spice level down pat. Fire - Fuego. Give it a try! Comfy atmosphere, professional and polite service and the food is very flavorful. It also comes out quickly. I’ll be coming back!! You get so much too. I got the butter chicken and a soda and water and it only cost me $23. Please guys, it’s worth!

Four of us shared a meal at the Himalayan Cuisine. We ordered four different dishes with various type sauces and all were excellent. The coconut based sauces were so delicious, perfectly cooked rice and wonderful Naan bread. The service was excellent and the atmosphere was very nice, I would recommend that you try this Indian cuisine!

From the outside of the restaurant, you would want to pass it by, but upon entering, you know right away you stepped into quality dining. Great service, great food, and not too expensive. Love this place!

I came to Himalayan Cuisine in La Mesa craving something warm and flavorful, and their butter chicken absolutely delivered. The sauce was creamy, rich, and full of layered spices without being overwhelming. The chicken itself was tender and cooked perfectly. What really brought the dish together was the garlic naan. It came out fresh from the oven, still hot, with the right amount of crisp on the outside and softness inside. The garlic flavor was just right, not overpowering, and it soaked up every drop of that buttery sauce. The staff here is so kind and welcoming. You can tell they take pride in what they do. They checked on us without being too pushy and made sure everything was just how we wanted. It felt like eating at a family-run place where the food is made with care and love. This spot is now one of my favorites in La Mesa. I will definitely be coming back for more.

Food was amazing! We had the chicken tikka, butter chicken, yellow and white rice, and the garlic naan. They also gave us daal soup as an appetizer. Everything was a 10/10! Service was also great, everyone was very nice and on top of everything. The decor and lighting gave a nice ambience to this restaurant. I'll definitely be back! :) Side note, my friend and I were talking and hanging out and didn't even realize the time or that they were closing, and they were so kind not even rushing us out of there, but we ended up just realizing they were closing so got up anyways and cashed out. 5

Went here on a Sunday afternoon and got seated right away. It was my first time, but my partner has been raving about this place for a while. We ordered the chicken tikka masala and chicken chili, along with basmati rice, naan, and cheese naan. Between the two dishes, the chicken chili was definitely my favorite. We asked for a 6/10 spice level, but honestly, I could've handled it even spicier. Next time, I'll bump it up a few notches. Same for the masala; we got it at a 6/10 too, but it didn't really bring much heat, in my opinion. Overall, this place will definitely be the first spot I think of whenever I'm craving Indian food. Can't wait to come back and turn up the spice!

This is my favorite Indian food spot and I have been coming here for a while! Takeout or dine in the service is always wonderful and the quality of food is always up to par, this time around we got the chicken tikka masala which is so flavorful and creamy and tried the chili chicken which easily became a new favorite You also get some lentil soup which is always a nice way to start the meal, can't rave about this place enough!!

Went in for a take out lunch special, for about $15 you get a ton of delicious food. With the lunch special comes: lentil soup (a smidge bland but might be because of my other dishes), 2 entrees (I picked Chana masala - delicious!! And chicken vindaloo - tasty, in a different style than I'm used to, this one had potatos), lots of rice, pickled veg, two triangles of naan (one was perfect, one was doughy), and rice pudding. I'll be back to try some of their other dishes, but will also certainly order the Chana masala again in the future. I ordered when I arrived and it took only about 10 minutes for the food to be ready. They gave it to me all wrapped to contain the sauces, and with silverware.

I have been coming here for years and was a frequented spot with friends. Coming here with friends or any group is recommended since the food portions are large and family style dining encouraged. Some of the highlights include the ample parking lot and the large restaurant with its decor that feels like you're in Nepal. The staff is amazing...every time I've come here they have been so friendly and attentive and treat us as friends. And of course, the food - delicious and there is something for everyone. I myself always get the masala chai and veggie samosas and usually some kind of chicken dish. But For this visit, it felt like we ordered the entire menu with about 12 different dishes. Such great variety, spice levels and flavors! A great meet up spot and almost guarantee you'll have left overs to take home.

Been here several times but brought my best friend here for her first time. First thing they brought was the lentil soup snd it was good. The servers were friendly and the atmosphere was nice with all the pictures and decorations. Ordered the butter chicken which is her favorite and I ordered the chicken tikka masala and the mixed tandoori grill with garlic cheese naan bread and rice . Would have ordered spicy but my b can't handle spice . The smell of the mixed tandoori was amazing and both chicken dishes were tasty. I highly recommend this place.

I love the food at the Himalayan it's delicious!! I don't eat spicy but they have all levels of spice. The garlic naan bread is freshly made and amazing! I have eaten both vegetarian and meals w meat. My favorite is the Tiki Masala - vegetarian! The soup is very good too. The ambiance is perfect for a couple or a group. Just going through the doors the smells welcome you in. I go there often - for dinner. Service is outstanding and I love the people there.

I came here for the first time with a good friend of mine . My first impression was this is a really cute and cozy decor . There weren't many people here dining and I saw probably 3-4 servers . We both ordered the chicken tikka masala with rice and garlic cilantro naan . I like that you get to pick your spice level. They recommend spice level four because I didn't want too spicy and it was absolutely perfect. My friend went with seven he really thought that was perfect spice for a spicy lover . It came with a delicious lentil soup . The food was 4 stars . The reason for the three star review is because the service was pretty bad. We kept having to go up to them to ask for something to drink, , to ask which one was a level 4 or 7 and to pay . They were friendly , but not attentive at all. We will probably make this a take out option.

One of the best authentic indian Restaurants i've had in town! They give you complementary lentil soup which was so delicious!! They also give you the option of rice or naan with your curry dishes (most places don't do that) and the servers are very prompt and friendly!! This restaurant definitely gives off a homestyle indian cuisine vibe and I love it!! I have been only coming here since i've tried it Not to mention their prices are reasonable for the big portions they give you!!! Highly recommend getting the mango lassi (Not pictured) my husband and I also got the mixed tandoori which came out sizzling and was sooo tasty! The lamb biryani was okay, I wished the meat was a little more tender but it was still flavorful. The butter chicken or chicken makhnee was my absolute fav! If you like spicy I recommend 7-8 spice level. Last, the garlic naan came out fresh and soft, it was perfect!

Came by Himalayan Cuisine for lunch! Three of us shared a pakora app, which was quite good. They have an amazing lunch special for $14.95. I had double chicken tikka masala and flavors were great. A lot of food for lunch. Lots of seating inside. Staff was friendly. Lots of parking in the plaza. I'll be back for sure in the future!

My brother loves this place so we decided to take my mom here for her birthday dinner. I've seen this place for years since I grew up in the area but never tried Nepal food before. It's very similar to Indian food, which I'm not a fan of but I loved everything that I tried here. Garlic naan was cheesy and delicious, chicken dumplings were meaty (love the sauce it came with), shrimp biryani was delish with that yogurt sauce, chicken curry was flavorful, and butter roti dish as well. I can see why it's been here for years.

This is my favorite Himalayan/Nepalese restaurant. All of the food I've tried here has been wonderful. It's all very flavorful with huge portions. Also, the decor here really sets the mood for this style of restaurant. The service is always prompt. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Great quality, great quantity, great value. I am a regular at this restaurant, and my frequent business here is for very good reason. This Indian restaurant provides large filling portions with flavorful and tasty food all in a cozy and warm atmosphere. Normally I come here for dinner, but this recent visit I came around lunch time and was excited to see that they have an awesome "Lunch Special" which we decided to check out along with some other items we regularly order when we visit. Lunch Special: 2 Items (Chicken Vindaloo, Chicken Tikka Masala), Chickpea Salad, Kheer (rice pudding), Naan, and a large portion of rice. Chicken Vindaloo: Savory, meaty, thick. The chicken in this dish is smokey and a bit tender but on the dryer side. The sauce is also more chunky and viscous as compared to a masala which would have a creamier and runnier sauce. I chose this one as it was one of the three protein options for the special. Although it isn't my absolute favorite, I enjoyed it very much for the variety that it brought to my plate. Chicken Tikka Masala: Bright, savory, tomato-y, creamy. This is the classic chicken tikka masala dish that everyone knows Indian cuisine to make so amazingly. I order this occasionally when I come here and I'm glad that it is a part of the lunch special. If you are unsure what to order, this one will not disappoint at all. Admittedly, in my most recent visit the Tikka Masala was a bit more on the tomayto-y side but nothing beyond slight to where it is disruptive to enjoying the dish. Chickpea Salad: Refreshing, bright, airy. The salad is very simple and straight forward. It is light, refreshing, airy, and aromatic. There is a combination of few textures. The onions and veggies were crunchy and crispy while the chickpea was a bit more grainy. I absolutely loved the salad as it was a beautiful contrast to the warmer and more savory flavors of the rest of our meal. Kheer: Cool, refreshing, not too sweet. This is the first time I've ever had rice pudding and it was such a pleasure to try. Similar to the chickpea salad, I thought it brought a nice refreshing break from the heavier savory tastes that is more common with the heavy dishes they serve at this restaurant. I should've saved it as dessert for the end but it tasted so good I couldn't resist taking sips throughout my meal. Lamb Vindaloo: Roasted, gamey, tender, juicy. The Lamb Vindaloo was saucy and savory. It was mild in spiciness and the aroma was filled with spices and herbs. The lamb meat was also extremely juicy and tender and it reminded me of a medium-rare New York Strip steak in the best way possible. The lamb meat tasted gamey in a way that was enjoyable but that also requires the context of my personal preference in game-y meats. I order this dish every so often when I come to this location and have never been disappointed. Overall a great dish to order if you enjoy game-y meats. Otherwise try the chicken vindaloo! Lamb Biryani: Warm, filling, aromatic, colorful. My girlfriend and I order this dish EVERY single time we come here. The biryani is so tasty and aromatic and it has the scents of every spice you would ever want. The lamb in this dish is also very tender and tasty. If you order any of the regular entrees that come with a choice of rice or naan, I would highly recommend you choose naan if you're also ordering any of their biryanis. The portion of rice they provide with this dish is deceptively large and I fall for it time after time. Mango Lassi: Not too sweet, silky. I can't believe that this is my first time ordering Mango Lassi at this location because it is one of my favorite beverages of all time. The drink is silky smooth and is sweet enough to satisfy your sweet tooth but not so sweet where you feel gross and regretful of ordering it. If you've never had this drink I URGE you to order it and try it out! Service is great as always. We are always greeted at the door by staff and shown to our table within a minute whether it is during lunch or dinner. The staff is attentive to needs and checks in autonomously to refill water and provide any other help needed.

Amazing and yummy food! Love love the lental soup and the chicken tikka masala here! The lunch special is like $15+tax with two entrees and it also comes with rice pudding and naan! Definitely worth the drive to come down here to have lunch! Wish they have the lamb option in the lunch menu! Strongly recommended!

I've tried this place before when my friend ordered takeout, but I've never eaten at the restaurant. I was surprised how big and busy it was inside. A good number of tables were occupied and there was consistent traffic going in and out for pickup orders. The food was hearty and flavorful. We ordered spice level 4 for our dishes and that was perfect for my comfort level. I enjoy spicy food but don't want to my mouth to be on fire the rest of the night. The biryani paired with the raika yogurt and cucumber sauce made for a perfect bite. Service is efficient but you have to be on point if you're wanting refills or have questions because you have to flag down a staff member as they're hustling to and from the back. They were very kind, however, and it was maybe the owner who stopped by the table at the end of the meal to ask how we enjoyed everything. Overall, it was a satisfying dining experience, and I'd definitely return to enjoy the great food and welcoming atmosphere.

11/18/2024 - I was in the area and ordered a Tiki Masala to go and it came with white rice. I ordered at 2:45pm and they told me about 15 minutes. I walked in and it was ready in 10 minutes. It smells so good in there. Giant place to go to with plenty of seats. Total cost was about $20. Loved it. Wished the portion was a little bigger. 2 meals for me and it came with a lentil soup. 5 stars.

TL;DR: authentic Nepalese/Himalayan/Indian cuisine and great service Ordered: - Chicken Tikka Masala (5/5): Must get. - Saag Paneer (4/5): Would've liked the paneer to be more flavorful but overall still delicious - Lamb Biryani (3/5): Good but not a lot of lamb meat. Would've preferred just getting more pieces of naan - Butter/Garlic Naan (5/5): must gets. The naan is so pillowy and soft yet packs a huge punch in flavor So much food for 2 - some of the best leftovers I've had in awhile Won't be getting the Biryani next time but we will absolutely be back to try the rest of the menu! Cheers, Himalayan Cuisine!

Ordered off delivery as we were craving Indian food one dinner. What we got: Butter chicken - creamy, rich, with the right amount of chicken. Garlic and cheese naan - on the softer side but chewy and delicious! It came in four pieces. Chicken biryani - unfortunately we didn't like it. It was just too salty that I don't know if that's the purpose of the yogurt sauce. The medium was also too hot for us. Serving was plenty, price point reasonable for two people (everything came to under $50) however, not the best Indian food we've tried despite the many good reviews.

This meal was delicious! I enjoyed everything I ordered. I definitely recommend trying the chicken chili if you're interested in trying something different. The flavors were amazing and the chicken was very tender. Their chicken tika was very good as well. You can't go wrong with either. My wife and I had great service. Everyone working was nice and helpful. Highly recommended!

One of my favorite places for Indian food in SD. The main dishes come with either jasmine rice or butter naan. I ordered the chicken korma and chili chicken. The chicken was not dry and had great flavors. Level 3 did not have much heat at all. Will have to try level 5 or higher next time. Friendly and fast service. There are lots of tables available for dine in.

I've been here about a dozen times since before the pandemic and everything is delicious! The restaurant is huge and busiest for the dinner service but never busy enough to wait more than a few minutes for a seat. Their takeout quality is also just as good as the seated experience. My favorite dishes are the paneer saag, chicken tandoori, lamb tikka masala, and lamb biryani. This place is great for groups or date nights and can accommodate kids. The service is always very good and the servers are nice. I highly recommend it!

Himalayan Cuisine is a restaurant highly recommended by acquaintances and I had dined here multiple times including food delivery. Almost every dish I ordered tasted off, NOT fresh and was either too sweet, too salty or had zero taste ie Bland and Flavorless. Their Saag paneer was not authentic tasting, a disappointment and a disaster. I've had amazing Himalayan food from Tara's in Los Angeles, and the food I've had here is not comparable this at all :( Good presentation was always careless and sloppy plated. Service by the staff was slow, unprofessional and lacking. Why this restaurant received so many high rating reviews is a mystery because I stronger disagree. The interior dining room had lovely chandelier lighting and the walls decorated with a menagerie of Himalayan baskets, assortment of ethnic art. Most people who haven't had much exposure to true Himalayan cuisine sadly don't know any better. This restaurant has the opportunity to improve many dishes, food preparation, presentation and staff service. Have given this restaurant the benefit of doubt but they repeated failed in every area. My generous 2 star is for some of the staff who were nice to Me and my service baby.

Went here for a family dinner. Many people waiting but only for take out. Had a Himalayan Blue Lager- wonderful beer. We also tried some white house wine. Both very good. House salad was good but very large portion. Recommend splitting the salad. For apps, we had the fried cheese and simosas. The meal was proceded by lentil soup and garlic naan bread. We tried chicken curry, lamb makthani and a few other chicken dishes. Many vegetarian options available. Want to come back to try som tandoori dishes. All were flavorful and perfect temperature. Excellent rice (lighter than air-lol) . Good comfortable boothes but large tables are available for 5 or more. Pleasant interior, clean. Below average sound/noise. Parking out front is easy. Try the market next door to take home some treats. Try it you'll like it!!!

Still my favorite Indian food in San Diego!! Seriously the best spot for curry and naan. I love the chicken tikki masala, a classic. My partner gets the butter chicken and loves it. You pick 1-10 spice level, I enjoy spicy food but can only handle a 4 or 5. The curry is always so warm and smells amazing. The portions are generous and I always have some leftover for lunch the next day. The service is always so friendly and fast. We are checked on often and our waters are always replenished. I also appreciate the complimentary lentil soup. Overall an excellent place.

This place is our favorite Himalayan/Napalese restaurant in San Diego! Authentic dishes, the staff dress the part, the food is absolutely delicious, their dining room area is clean and tidy, their service is second to none. We don't mind driving all the way from South Bay to La Mesa to dine here. We love their Tandoori Chicken (boneless), Mushroom AND Chicken Tikki Masala, Chicken Momo, Chicken Biryani, and I can't forget to mention their complimentary lentil soup they serve prior to the dishes being served. The place is large enough to hold special occasions. If you love Himalayan cuisine, make sure you try this spot!

Great food, great value charming decor. Services was quick no nonsense service. Not rude, but definitely not friendly.. just something to be noted.

Our go to restaurant for Indian food! We love the chicken, tiki masala, and the Saleg paneer For appetizers, the vegetarian samosas are terrific. They offer a cilantro and a tamarind dipping sauce. The potatoes and peas are comforting in the crusty Samosa. We are wimps and order heat level number three. The cilantro, garlic, naan, and the cheese garlic naan are wonderful! We also love the chicken biryani.... If you order enough, they give you a complimentary pea soup. Be sure to order a mango lassi or ice cream to cool off your mouth afterwards!

Absolutely love this place came in during the week for dinner with a friend and their chicken tikka is amazing, they bring complementary lentil soup to the table. My friend ordered chili chicken and it was delicious. I have also ordered the Tandoori mixed and it was a huge amount of food. They also have an Indian market next door which I love to grab spices and teas. I come to this place often and I can not recommend enough. Servers constantly check on you and the ambiance is moody.

This place is an epiphany on the rich, complex cuisine from Nepal. Lamb, goat, lentil and curry are on point, the vegetarian options just as great, be sure to deep dive the menu here.

We had a family of 4 to feed for the night so we ordered 5 entrees and a few sides - yup more than enough feed! Mom and I had Chicken Tikka Masala. Sauce was good, chicken was a little dry but overall good. The Mango Chicken Tikka Masala was amazing. Tender chicken and great flavor. Would definitely recommend it. Vegetible samosa was good. Naan made a nice compliment - we did each garlic and cheese. The other entrees I didn't get to try but did well with the family. One had shrimp and I had some of it the next day. Not bad. Leftovers were still tasty. Everyone was happy with the meal and at the end of the day, that's what counts! In fact, now I'm curious about the store next to the restaurant to see what spices I can get to try cooking some thing on my own!

Very disappointing. Here's why: Lunch special served on these metal cafeteria trays. Really? But wait, there's more. We had the Chicken Vindaloo. Very little flavor, not spicy at all. Lots of untrimmed fat and the like in the dish. Pickles ... sad. Rice pudding was lumpy and tasteless. Naan was ok. When they asked about the food we said it was not very good and they didn't listen but did want to give us boxes to take the uneaten food home. Never going back.

First visit to Himalayan Cuisine, we stopped by on a Tuesday around 3pm - Our waitress greeted us warmly at the entrance and we were promptly seated. The restaurant is bigger than I expected from the pictures, there were about 4 other tables being served alongside from what I could tell. She kindly took our orders and we were served our complimentary lentil soup right away. Our food arrived within the next 15 mins. I opted for a Mango Lassi, it was smooth and not too sweet, the Chicken Tikka Tandoori was juicy and flavorful as well. The Garlic + Cilantro Naan was a must, delicious! Also tried Gulab Jamun for the first time, and these were definitely sweet but I was expecting that, yummy as well! We'll be coming back!

Always. Good and friendly service here.Our favorite dishes are garlic naan ,chicken chili, lamb choila& eggplant.

We come here as often as we can but always on our anniversary. The staff always remembers us and makes us feel special. Our favorite dish is the Malai Kofta!

I have been in search of a great, not just good, Indian food after my most recent visit to London. While I haven't been able to find anything close to the food from London, I'm finding enough to satisfy my cravings! Himalayan Cuisine came with high recommendations and I did really enjoy the meal! I ordered butter chicken and the cheese naan. The portion size was significant. The curry came with a side and I chose basmati rice. My husband and I were able to share a serving. We ordered a spice level 4 and I thought it was perfect. I wouldn't have gone any higher. Spice is objective but I'd say that a 4 is a solid medium. It's clear that they are a very popular take out spot. You can order online for pick up!

This place has been constantly good over the years. They also give large portions. One of my favorite places for takeout.

This quickly became one of my favorite restaurants in general. The momos were cooked perfectly. Then there was the Dal Bhat which was amazing. Then the chicken chili was just incredible. The waiters are on top of it and the service is excellent. Highly recommend!!!

Food was alright, not great. Ordered saag paneer-it was good but not the best that I have ever had. The rice was a nice touch. The chicken momos were HORRIBLE. They were either really overcooked or it was saved from the night before. The momo's outside was hard and rubbery and not chewable. They ended up taking it off the bill but this was after multiple stares from the staff. Sorry, but you can clearly see that it was overcooked or just reheated. It's almost like when you buy a bag of frozen dumplings and you heat it up in the microwave but it dries out the dumpling. The vegetable samosas were good and piping hot.

The food was amazing i had the lamb vindaloo and garlic nan definitely will be returning again now my favorite curry gem in east county

The portions here are gigantic. I had the chicken tikka masala and it was very tasty. I do wish the rice was flavored in some way but the white rice was still good. My partner had the chicken tandoori and felt that it was a bit dry. We shared samosas and the garlic cheese bread which I thought were both delicious. The servers were very nice and attentive. I also really enjoyed the ambiance of the restaurant, it felt very homey.

Deeeeeeelicious!!!! We tried it because it was close to home. The quality is so good especially for the price. Tikka masala was a must and same with the saag paneer. We would probably skip the lamb briyani because the other 2 items are way better and we have our eyes on the butter chicken next . We ordered to-go for this trip and the food held up really well. Still just as bomb 2 days later for lunch. It was very fast pickup and the seating area was cute too if we wanted to eat in. Next time!

Place is tucked in the heart of La Mesa and its incredible Indian food that delivers. I have the chicken curry with rice and the Papad as an appetizer. Needless to say the flavor and the spices are blended extremely well! Service was great too!

Whenever I want curry I go to the Himalayan place to meet my fix. The ambience is nice and reminiscent of Nepal with the pictures that are displayed along with certain furniture pieces. The service is quick and the waitstaff is always nice and pleasant and will answer any questions you may have.

Indian food has my heart! This is hands down the best Indian food in San Diego. The menu is endless, theres literally something for everyone here. Not a meat eater? They have plenty of veggie options which is great. Staff is always to nice, personable and attentive. The ambiance is pretty cool they have some cute little salt lamp decor and some nice music playing in the background. You won't be disappointed if you try this place out and trust me you'll keep coming back!

Great Value for Indian Food. First time trying Himalayan Cuisine, with the amount of food they provided, it saved me from cooking for three days (2 pep)! Also comes with Naan, lentil soup which I don't have a picture of. The chicken Momo is good, soft steamed dumplings good for kids or elders, the thing I liked most is the curry? sauce. It's flavorful I probably dipped everything I ate in it. Lamb Biryani is OK, my suggestion is the lamb chunks could be a bit smaller, you might not see it in the picture, but it's literally size of a baby fist, needs to be cut before eating. My guess is the lamb is tandoori style, was a bit dry but flavorful for sure. The Tandoori is a must try, smoky and tender, especially for Keto diet eaters, the yogurt sauce that comes with it also delicious. We called in to order for take out and it's ready in 30 mins, good service, I would recommand it to anyone craving himalayan foods!

2.5 stars... Promptly seated at our reserved time in a spacious dining room. Complimentary lentil soup was delivered after placing our order; fried paneer, biryani chicken and chicken tikka masala. Paneer was bland, as was the lentil soup. This surprised me because if you fail to order "mild" on most Indian dishes your tongue will suffer. Tikka nasals and biryani were both good. Check in for free dessert, we chose the galub jamon... but they were brought out with the meal, and were room temp by the time we got to them. Nice space, nice people, average food... this joint joint not make the list...

This is the first time we try this restaurant and it is bomb! This is one of the new good restaurants we tried in a while. Customer services is good. The server explained good since I didn't know what to choose between couple options. Each of the portion is good. We got Samoa for appetizer and it's big. Two of them can fill you up. I love that they bring out free soup. I would come back and try different food on the menu. I love the mango drink they have.

Ordered take out for lunch and it was delicious, for sure will go back! Servers were very friendly and helpful so the suggestions.

Phenomenal. Divine. Good good food, good good service. Service didn't feel fake like it sometimes can in the US, but felt more genuine and natural. Restaurant itself is huge and has got lovely decoration. We got complementary soup too! Such a nice touch. Servings are plenty and DELICIOUS!!!!! Definitely will be coming back to La Mesa just for this fine place.
