We had a wonderful Saturday dinner at Himalayan Curry & Grill in Lancaster. They were incredibly…read morekind and accommodating, fitting us in with a last-minute reservation -- but I highly recommend booking at least a few days in advance. This is an intimate BYOB spot, and it was completely packed when we arrived. The atmosphere feels cozy and authentic -- the kind of place where you know care goes into both the food and the hospitality. We ordered the chickpeas, cauliflower, and a mango lassi. One thing we really appreciated: they asked us what spice level we preferred. My wife doesn't like spicy food, and they thoughtfully prepared everything mild for us without sacrificing flavor. The chickpeas were outstanding -- rich, well-seasoned, and deeply satisfying. The cauliflower wasn't quite to my personal taste, but it was well prepared. And the mango lassi? Absolutely amazing -- creamy, refreshing, and the perfect complement to the meal. Portions were generous, and the service was prompt and genuinely excellent throughout the evening. If you're in Lancaster and enjoy flavorful Himalayan and Indian cuisine in a cozy BYOB setting, this place is definitely worth a visit -- just plan ahead and make that reservation.

I of course ordered goat curry and vegetable momo and was introduced to jhoi momos. This restaurant had one of the best goat curries so far, the goat didn't seem to be the goat most of the restaurants used, the frozen goat cubes that I think the other restaurants get from costco, the frozen goat cubes. This restaurants goat actually tasted like better goat. I was introduced to jhoi momos and glad I was, it was momos but in a fantastic soup/sauce that I drank up. It was simply very tasty. Of course we also ordered vegetable momos also. Another great find for real great goat curry was found. My only issue and my nephew also agreed on was all the restaurants are very skimpy with the rice, we simply do not have enough rice for the goat curry, I guess most people prefer the naan instead but I prefer the rice with the curry.

We also got a creamy chicken dish and an okra (bhindi) dish. Both were very good. The service was exemplary--there was a team of four or five dedicated staff who rotated through with dishes and takeaways. Oh! I almost forgot the garlic naan--some of the best I have had.
