I truly enjoy the staff and how proud they are of the food they serve. I've been served here and have also had their food delivered to me via door dash. The service is great when I'm in house. When it's delivered, it's packaged carefully and the portions are equal to what you get in house. Clean atmosphere, music is interesting and fun, service is thoughtful. They care about their restaurant, culture and the people they serve. read more

Aura The Himalayan Kitchen - Pork Thukpa - Indian Near Me - Tallmadge, Ohio

The rice was old, cold, soggy/overcooked: Inedible. The buffet's cauliflower, chicken and naan were not good; the mutton was too salty; the potatoes and chai were about the only tasty things; and the new batch of naan they brought out later. There were some non-food-quality related awkwardnesses, too... The TV was extremely loud. The server did not tell us the correct price for the buffet. I was brought warm water in a plastic cup when I asked for a mug of hot water. (Apparently they don't have ceramic mugs, as even the chai is served in paper cups.) They didn't bus the dirty buffet plates though they had nothing else to do and there were no other customers. They seemed genuinely surprised when they asked how the food was and I said good ( - - the food off the menu WAS good, though the portions were small.) You don't get the bill till you go up to pay at the counter, and then they stand there and watch you calculate their tip... They have all the curtains closed, so it's dark and uncomfortable, when it'd be much nicer if you could look out their many huge windows into the lovely back courtyard. They overcharged me at the register. The bathroom was dirty even though it was first thing in the morning. (On a positive note, it was extremely warm in there and felt just like a sauna - perfect on a bitter cold day.) The polyester tablecloths were dirty, (again, even though we seemed to be their first customers of the day) as was the cutlery.. I don't want to say don't go... but if you do, 1. order off the menu 2. order naan, not rice 3. bring earplugs 4. bring your own mug 5. check the bill well before paying (comparing it to the menu prices) 6. wipe your silverware 7. wash your hands well when you get home 8. either order extra appetizers, or have snacks in the car for after read more

I came here for dinner one time with BF, my sis and her hubby and we had an amazing time. Menu was varied and had a good selection of IndoChinese flavors. We ordered 2 different types of momos, got a cauliflower soup dish, chow mein dish, curry chicken dish and one more beef dish. It was a lot of food and we had plenty leftover. The taste was great and the presentation of the momos were served in Chinese bamboo steamers! Rice was perfectly steamed and fresh. The place itself was well lit with tasteful decor and nice ambiance. Service was friendly. We have been wanting to go back and try other dishes! Love this local neighborhood spot in Akron. read more

Honestly, I don't know if I have felt as unwelcome as I did at lunch today. The hostess came across as though we were imposing. There was no one in the place at 2pm when we arrived, no sound, all you could hear was the hum of the air system. I ordered the veggie platter, and it didn't come with 3 of the things in the picture. It felt like a small amount of food for $15. I had to ask for the gulab jamun it was supposed to come with. Half way through the meal, the hostess came over with a new happier attitude and asked to take our photo for the website, which felt so surreal. Toward the end of our meal, she said they close at 3pm. I said it didn't say that anywhere on their website, it says open until 9pm. She replied they closed for a break. I offered again, hoping to be helpful, "I understand, I'm saying it doesn't say anything about that on your website". She replied, "that's ok". My husband pointed out she was likely implying it was ok that we were there - but coupled with the way we felt like an imposition and were not wanted there, I likely won't return. read more

Aura The Himalayan Kitchen - This is the veggie sampler for $15. - Indian Near Me - Tallmadge, Ohio

Their momos (appetizers) were really good and that's where things stopped being good. The yogurt in the mango lassi was sour and the drink needed to be fixed with a generous helping of mango puree to make it palatable. The chicken curry was made with white meat instead of dark meat as is traditionally done with chicken curry, the meat was overcooked and tough, and the dish had too much salt. The cook is extremely generous with salt in all the preparations and the excessive salt was evident in the triple rice, and in the pork as well - We didn't order anything else, however I suspect that the excessive salt would have been a common theme all around. We were the only guests in the restaurant throughout our meal and the service was extremely attentive by a very pleasant hostess, but the food marred the entire experience. The wallpaper on the walls is peeling in a few places especially near the entrance to the kitchen and is in need of some upkeep. read more

Truly enjoyed our experience here. This is very authentic food, homemade flavors, and sauces. Can't wait to explore again! I will take pictures next time! read more

Aura The Himalayan Kitchen - Dinning Area - Indian Near Me - Tallmadge, Ohio

This restaurant is under new management. I don't think they do the buffet anymore but everything on the menu had been awesome. Been here 4 times in the last month, great service, very nice server. The Thali takes 40 to 50 minutes to make but the server told us about the wait before hand so that wasn't a problem at all. Some dishes take time to make but that is inherit with the dish. I will keep coming back each week!!! read more

I drove 40 minutes to check this place out and try their food. Place is very clean and modern. I was disappointed that no customers were there. I tried the buffet and it was just okay. It tasted fine but I can tell it has been out for a while. I was not happy with the Lamb (mutton) on the buffet. It was below average. I will give it another try and maybe get there by noon. read more

Got the buffet. Rice was cold and over cooked. Samosas were old and cold. The rest was good but was worried about food poisoning. IDK if you can get that made fresh but was utterly ignored the entire time. I felt as if I was an inconvenience. No fresh naan, the drink was warm as hell. I don't know if I'd try it again. read more

As long as you don't go for the buffet you'll have an incredible experience. They don't currently have enough customers for it and the food sits without being swapped out for new dishes. We ordered a variety of dishes an including pork and chicken momos. I've been to several Nepalese restaurants and this one is the overall best so far. Highly recommend it. read more

Everything was delicious! Fresh, hot, and tasty. Very nice dining room and wait staff was very friendly and helpful. Nice variety of dishes.

Had the buffet at noon. Every dish was cold. Place was empty except for us. Don't expect to go back.

Arrived at @2pm for lunch. No one else here and we noticed the server switched the heaters on under the buffet food, should have just left at that point. Around 12 items on the buffet, very few vegetarian. I get that a lot and am used to adapting, but this is why i love Indian cuisine so much. Since there wasn't really anything for me to eat worth the $16 buffet price tag I asked if i could just order something from the kitchen, nope. My 2 guests had the plain rice and butter chicken, seemed ok. The lamb was empty and the veg available was a scoopful and dried to the serving dish. The other dishes were floating in cooled grease since the burners were off. Plenty of naan bread but unseasoned and dry. Was really hoping for a chance for them to try many different dishes and share my love of this type of food. I know i should have just opted to not dine but wanted to try. Once we were done i tracked down our server from the back to pay our bill and heaed to get ice cream to salvage the afternoon. read more
