I tried some dishes I hadn't had before, and liked them, but not as much as some of my regular dishes, the ones I order nearly every time. I am trying something new each visit, mixed with old favorites. The *naan,* chicken tandoori, and masala sauce are always wonderful. I tried Aloo Chat Papri and Aloo Mutter (I think the peas should have been cooked a tiny bit longer). The spinach fritters, a special, were delicious. The lassi, esp. sweet and mango, is always wonderful, tho the slice of mango on the edge of my glass was green and crunchy, not ripe. Service was attentive and kind, as always. We love our Bistro!!

It was Valentine’s Day and the restaurant was crowded; Himalayan Bistro was clearly not prepared for so many people. The waitress said that the little pots full of sweet and savory sauces for the Indian food were “out” – meaning they didn’t have any more — and it was only 7:15! (However, we did get the sauces, as did everyone else.) Then we waited one hour for our food, watching those who had arrived after us get served, and hearing one of the hosts say twice (thrice?) that our food was coming out of the kitchen next. Then when it arrived, the food, though tasty, was lukewarm. We are regulars at this restaurant, and like the food and people there very much; but no one apologized or made any attempt to compensate us for the unconscionable wait. Finally, the dishes are getting very expensive: $12.50 for a small dish of spinach and potatoes seems excessive to me. Without the Restaurant.com coupon we always use, I think we’d go to Himalayan Bistro once or twice a year, no more. Read more Read less
