Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Excerpts

I placed an order for delivery through DoorDash. I ordered the butter chicken, garlic naan, and chicken momo. The butter chicken came with fried onions on top of the rice. I love the garlic naan. I’m not sure if the garlic naan already comes with the butter chicken but I ordered garlic naan as well. There was plenty of garlic naan for me, it was delicious , soft , and chewy. I love dipping my naan in the butter chicken sauce. The chicken momos are fantastic. The wrapper is thin and chewy, I’m not sure if they make their own wrappers but it tasted like it! The sauce that came with the momos paired well together. The chicken filling itself was juicy. I cant wait to try more from the restaurant !

I’m told this place is barely a month old, but they’re hitting their stride early. We went with the “safe” Option ordering the chicken tikka masala and the butter chicken. Wow. It is so very good. When the food came out, the portions looked medium, once you start digging in there’s a lot of food there. I got the medium spice and it was perfect. Perfectly warm. You could still taste the food, all the flavor was there, and some heat. 10 out of 10 would recommend. You need to come support this local business because the food is amazing. There’s a new tasty, inexpensive, amazing Indian restaurant in Lynnwood and you need to come check it out.

We were excited when this new Nepali resturant opened near us and we went to it a couple of times for dine in and takeout. What drew us in initially, apart from the novelty, was their great prices. The food was okay, but the prices made up for it and it definitely was a bang for the buck. The service was also good (specially the very genial owner dai) but was at times bit slow and flustered. As Nepali restaurants in/near Seattle go, there unfortunately aren't really any that truly capture the essence and taste of home. What made Himalayan Diner worth it was that their momo wasn't something abnoxiously priced as say Annapurna or Everest Kitchen. But two months in the prices have gone up significantly (some items by 20-30%) which has taken away the one advantage this resturant had. It is now a restaurant that has okay food, and is no longer all that cheap or bang for the buck. I understand, of course, that these are difficult times and the cost of business is high and keeps rising. But what has happened with the prices at Himalayan Diner feels a bit like a bait and switch. Nevertheless, the resturant is still a welcome addition to the area. At least people now don't have to go out to Bothell or Everett, if not further, for some tolerable South Asian food.
