    Excellent stop for Indian food. This bustling place thankfully had a spot for a solo diner. If you…read moreare coming to the Ghent area, it may be of value to make a reservation in advance. I popped in around 8:45 so a later dinner probably helped me. Sticking to my routine, I ordered chicken tiki masala and cheese naan. I will say this is some of the best, most tender chicken I have ever had in my masala and the cheese naan was on par to be the best cheese naan I have had...and I eat lots of Indian food, it is pretty top on my food group list. If you are like me and like spice but not too much spice, I ordered the Belgium spice level 2. Now I pride myself on being able to handle heat and I suggest this level or maybe even one lower if you are similar. I was surprised at the level of heat for a Belgium level 2. Maybe I am loosing footing on my spice level tolerance! Service was attentive, food excellent, and definitely worth a stop through!

    Came here for dinner on a quiet Tuesday. Cultural interior that's greatly decorated. Ordered the…read morebutter chicken along with some naan bread. Food was pretty good and had an authentic taste. Owners were checking regularly on customers and that was pretty nice. One of the owners was busy throughout the evening with a certain table which made the meal enjoyment a little less comfortable. I would have done the same just focus on all customers rather than focus on one group. I would definitely come back and try something else! Food 4/5 Atmosphere 5/5 Service 3/5

    Royal India Restaurant - I don't have a picture of the dessert but it was a little pad of rice pudding with amandels. Little after much was wise not to be too much.

    This was a delightful experience from start to finish…read more After a day of strolling around Gent and working up an appetite, we landed on Himalayan. What a great choice that was. First and foremost, our server was bright, cheerful and caring, with a warm greeting at the door. As my dining companion had begun losing her voice, our server commented on my choice of drinking a cold beverage and said to my friend, "I'll make you a perfect warm tea" -- and "perfect" it was! The food was great, the atmosphere was pleasant and inviting. Although we found ourselves lost in conversation and still there beyond closing time, we were never rushed or hurried -- only welcomed with smiles. Five stars for the overall experience along with bonus stars for the lovely service and making us feel special. A personal note to our server directly: "Thank you for creating a special moment for us." Until next time...

    We got there when the restaurant was about 80% full, busy but not out of control. We ordered our…read moremeal (chicken curry dish) and a liter of water. After 45 minutes no meal, no water and no silverware, yet waitstaff were all around us, somewhat busy but not so busy that other tables that came in much later than us received prompt service. After 45 minutes we got our meal, and I asked why we never got water. She seemed indifferent and left but never came back with water or silverware yet continued to wait on new and existing patrons around us. I finally went to to checkout area to ask about water and silverware, after which we finally received even a few more minutes wait. The chicken curry dish was not bad but the service and attention to detail on our order was very bad.
