In December 2003, the Himalayan Restaurant in Niles, IL 60714 opened its doors. Two friends opened this unique Indian and Nepali speciality dining establishment. They both began their careers in the t…
I never make reviews- but for this restaurant I just had to. Himalayan Restaurant had NO RIGHT being this good. Every single thing we ordered hit the spot. The Chicken Makhani, a Himalayan dish, was cooked perfectly and served as a perfect hot soup for the chilly fall weather. The Firecracker Chicken Wings, which is something you'd find in a classic American pub, blew us away by how tender and authentic they tasted. They were, quite honestly, the best wings I've ever had- and they're from a Himalayan restaurant. The Steamed MoMo hit the spot with an Asian-like spice to it. The Garlic Naan and Paneer Naan obviously paired amazingly with the Chicken Makhani. I could not imagine a better experience than Himalayan Restaurant. You need to try this place. 10/10

I was very impressed with the dinner I ordered. The Daal Mahkani was delicious & perfectly spicy. The Samosas were crispy and warm. And the sauces and extras (onions, jalapeno, & lemon wedge) really added some zing. I will definitely order again.

Only docking it a star because the Combo Meal for One states 10 ounce of rice, but it's much closer to 6 ounces. Had I known, I would have purchased another side of rice. The entrées, however, are well portioned. Ordered the chicken tikka masala (spicy) and the palak paneer (extra spicy), both were delicious and were true to the spice level for sure.

We loved everything! The Lamb Pasanda was delicious and the lamb was cooked perfectly. The Chicken Tikka Masala was a little different than other masalas, but was super flavorful and we would strongly recommend. The Paneer Makhani was buttery and perfect for our 3 year old who loves cheese. My wife really enjoyed it too. The Garlic Naan was great. So many places burn it, but this was perfect. This was our first time having a Steamed MoMo and I loved it with the dipping sauce. My wife thought there was a touch too much fennel, but I thought the sauce did a great job of balancing that out. Vegetable Samosas were exactly what you'd expect and were cooked perfectly. Highly recommend this place based off our first experience.

Generous portions. Chicken Makhani was a little under salted, but otherwise very flavorful. Can't recommend the Chili MoMos enough. Garlic naan was also very much worth the upcharge in the Combo Meal for One
