Himalayas Indian Restaurant City Centre Christchurch

Excellent meal! Perfect blend of spices and good quality lamb. Great service with a warm welcome. Best Indian meal we've had on our 3 week holiday in New Zealand. Thank you 😊

Visited Himalayas after on a quiet Monday evening after seeing the great reviews on google; I was the only person in the restaurant so the service was top notch. The food; i ordered the butter chicken, which was the best butter chicken I've had in a long time (to me tasted like what Butter chicken should taste like), peshwari naan was delicious. Also tried the kashmiri pulao, which I've never seen before, but was great and complimented the flavour of the curry wonderfully. Would highly recommend!

We had dinner at Himalayas. We ordered all the recommended options which were unique and chef special, we were not disappointed. It was amazing. The taste was so so unique. We ordered Himalaya chef special cheese chicken tikka , himalaya special prawn curry( comes with rice),peshwari naan(comes with 4 pieces). Everything was so tasty. The ambience was average, like any other restaurant. The person who waited our table was so friendly and took great care of us. Best thing about the restaurant is the variety and unique food options it offers.

My family loves Indian cuisine and we've tried dozens of Indian restaurants in Christchurch. I have to say Himalayas is the best so far. The food is full of flavors. The four curry dishes we ordered each had its own character and we couldn't decide which one is better, they're all scrumptious! They have many choices of naan bread and all fluffy and absolutely mouth-watering! Himalayas is absolutely the real deal!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Authentic Flavours & Excellent Service! I was in Christchurch for a work meeting from Auckland, and by the third day, I was really craving some good Indian food — and Himalayan Restaurant absolutely delivered! The food was amazing, full of authentic flavour, and I honestly can’t fault a thing. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. Definitely coming back next time I’m in town!

It's been a while since we have had a good Indian and we were so glad we dined here. The service was so friendly and they even customised a tandoori platter to start which, the lamb chops melted in the mouth with taste. Had the Lamb Rogan josh for main, medium to hot which was perfectly cooked and so tasty, hats off to the chef. Highly recommended if you enjoy a great tasting Indian food. Bonus they are BYO wine as well.

A nice place, amazing service, friendly staff. No extra charges for credit card or paywave. Food quality was good. Chicken tikka was a bit less soft to my standards but overall good. Karahi chicken was also very good and tasty. Quite good taste for a desi food lover. Had Gulab jaman with ice cream at the end. There are few parking spots available outside on street. Recommend to visit

Ate here for my birthday and the Lamb Dhansack, Chicken Sagwala and Keema nans were outstanding. Some of the best Curry I have eaten and I have had curries in many countries. Great service too, keep up the good work

This Indian restaurant was a lovely dining experience. You could tell it was a family business and they took pride in their product. The service was great, very attentive and checked in with us during our dining. We had the chickpea vegetarian recommended dish, saag prawns, garlic naan and spicy pickles. One let down was I found the dishes not spicy enough even tho we asked for medium and I would have like more intensity in the flavour. I gave a 4 because of the whole experience and not just the meal.

Everything was so delicious. I've never had better Indian food. The lamb roganjash was so tender and perfectly season. The chicken tikka masala was super juicy and had the perfect hint of smokiness.

I had fairly high expectations of this place after a recommendation from a friend. Unfortunately I left the place disappointed. Ordered Chicken bhuna and lamb rogan josh. Both came served with basmati rice. Taste for both were average, nothing to really write home about. Portions were on the small side, suitable for light mid eaters. The mango lassi tasted of syrup rather than mangoes. Could definitely do better. Overall there are better ones around for the price.
