A great spot to get a quick, filling meal. We ordered the chicken momos, peshwari naan, and chicken palak for two people, which was more than enough. The space isn't huge, but it's cozy. Service is friendly and quick. They changed the process so now it's just waiter service.I would definitely come back again and try more of the menu.

This place is SOO good! It might be my favorite place for Nepalese or Indian food in the area, and it has some stiff competition. Every dish is amazingly good every time I go (especially in contrast to other nearby similar restaurants who are hit-or-miss). I usually see the owner when I'm there and he's always giving good recommendations. I never thought I could love chow mein so much! Everything there is fresh and well spiced. Usually I will do take-out, but it's also a great place to eat in; their bar is fun and food comes out perfectly hot.I must say the first time I went to Himalayan Kitchen, I was a bit skeptical because their expansive menu includes some surprises like burgers and fries and chicken wingers. Don't let it fool you like it did me, this place is top quality. My favorites are their momo, chow mein, palak paneer, and all the breads are amazing.

Himalayan Kitchen is a fun spot to explore different flavors. Their menu is a rollercoaster ride through Nepal and India. The samosas are crispy and packed with flavor, and the curries are rich and satisfying. I've even tried their chicken tikka pizza, which was a surprising hit.The only downside is that the service can be inconsistent. Sometimes it's great, other times, not so much. But the food usually makes up for it. If you're up for a culinary adventure, give Himalayan Kitchen a shot.

I've never eaten Himalayan food before and saw this on the map so decided to give it a try.Food: - We loved the food!Excused my incorrect spelling of the dishes, I'm actually going off my memory..Chili, porkChamatari, veggies, eggs & meat - bean soup came w/this, it was delicious especially eating it with the nannChoymi - beef Garlic naanRice pudding Service: It was pretty good. The Co-Owner came and spoke to us as well. He said that his wife is one of the main cooks. - the other staff was nice but a bit quiet and shy.Atmosphere: it was a bit too small for us and no AC (I felt bad for my family... Luckily they didn't ask to leave...) - the staff asked another party of 2 to switch seats to give our party of 5 the largest table. It was very nice of all of them. Definitely recommend this place.

Fantastic lil spot in Union Sq! The food was on point! Everything we ate was so delicious. Menu was very varied with more traditional Himalayan/Nepalese options as well as Indian cuisine. The Chicken Momo (Jhal) is served steamed in a tangy soup-like sauce. The jhal added so much flavor and isn't too sour at all. The momos were juicy, cooked to perfection.The Tandoori Shrimp was served with some fresh veggie salad, rice, and some of the most delectable tikka masala sauce I've ever had. I could've eaten a bowlful of just the sauce and rice. The Taas set included marinated goat meat with some sides. I'm not a huge fan of goat meat generally due to the gamey taste, but this goat was really yummy. The spices and cooking style helped to mask the gaminess.There isn't a whole lot of seating inside, but it was pretty easy to get a table on Saturday evening without a reservation. We were seated and fed quickly. My one gripe is the use of disposable plastic plates. Otherwise, really enjoyed this meal!

Our first time here did not disappoint! The entire staff was very friendly and helpful. Jay, the owner introduced himself and gave us amazing recommendations. His wife is the chef!My favorite thing we ordered was the butter chicken! It was very sweet and rich and DELICIOUS! It's the only thing I didn't get a picture of because I was just too excited to eat it haha.Awesome place in Somerville and we will definitely be back soon to try more curry.The pizza was so fun and we really enjoyed it! Seems like most people order take out and that's what they get!

My coworker recommended this restaurant as it had good reviews and was conveniently located to meet up with another coworker from our company. It's located next to a child care school in a weird intersection on Bow St in Somerville. There's paid street parking around the area but may be difficult to find especially during lunch and dinner rushes.My group and I ordered steamed Chicken Mo Mo and the Beef Chilli to share. The chicken mo mo was soooo good. Unliked Chinese XLB, there was a lot of spices and flavors in the mo mo. Delicious! The beef chilli was also really good but also incredibly spicy LOL. Tons of different spices marinated with the beef, bringing out a flavor blast in my mouth. I wanted to keep eating but the spiciness kept killing me. I ordered the lunch special Chicken Tikka Masala. It came out in a plastic take out container (all the other foods were like that too) and there was only a small portion of the tikka masala which threw me off. BUT the portion didn't matter as there was a lot of meat and the curry, omg. Very thick and sooo full of flavor. I've never had tikka masala that was this thick! Delicious! A hidden hole-in-the-wall gem that deserves a little more credit. The quality and the flavor profile of the foods were really good! Definitely would love to come back in the future.
