Went for lunch. It was my first visit. Ate alone so my sample size is small. BUT, I went with a cubed lamb dish. And if an Indian place can't make lamb taste right, they probably can't do much else. Well this place was delicious. The lamb was stewed to tenderness (often a failure point), the flavor was rich, nearly bold, and the medium spice level was perfect -- on the cusp of HOT. The spice was also flavorful, it did not just pack heat. Dish was served with something like spinach saag and rice. I am usually not a fan of creamed spinach, but again, pretty good here. This place was great, and I will be going back to try more!

I am not sure were Himalayan cuisine starts, so to eat the unusual we mainly got appetizers because the rice dishes seemed to be Indian. Beautiful restaurant and great service seemed like a vacation. The food is good, but I didn't leave with a good idea of Himalayan food. I had to get reservations, the first night we were turned away.
