Himalayan Bite - Garlic Naan Chicken Tikka - Indian Near Me - Berkeley, California

Sorry about the misspellings in my previous review. I didn't pay attention to my autocorrect which apparently knows nothing about good food.

Came here for an impromptu dinner with my boyfriend! Good: - Super nice staff and they checked in us a ton despite this place being fairly casual - Loved the Himalayan burrito - the paratha wrap and the paneer inside was so delicious - The noodle soup was pretty good too - sweet and savory - Portion sizes were great - super full at the end of it Bad: - The wait time was a bit long for our two entrees - A bit more casual and self-service Overall this was a good find after a long day of walking around and was the perfect thing to get us energized for a long night. read more

Himalayan Bite - Indian Near Me - Berkeley, California

Himalayan Bite opened within the year where Delhi Diner was. The interior and seating hasn't changed much. The eats have. offerings (Indo-Chinese, Indian, Himalayan): biryani, tandoori, momos, Himalayan soup/salad/bentos, curries, small bites, breads, drinks. Ordered at counter, pd, got food 10ish minutes. Bites: Butter Chicken with rice (14.99) -originally wanted Himalayan food. Menu too big to decipher. Went with butter chicken. -lotsa white fresh fluffy basmatic rice to soak up sauces. -butter chicken made with tandoori chicken mixed in creamy tomato gravy/curry, cumin, yogurt, Indian spices, red chili powder... -probably 2d or 3rd having it. Had plenty of heat which I had to adjust to + drinking some water. -10ish pieces various sizes tender chicken meat. -so fun mixing butter chicken & rice. Everything fresh & yummy. Had to slow down eating to avoid choking & coughing. read more

I got the Himalayan chicken burrito. It was okay. The chutney/sauce they used was tangy with a mild sweetness which is nice. The chicken was cooked well and the rice was too. I have two main criticisms which is that the burrito is mostly rice and there was a small amount of chicken (for 16 dollars). As I ate more of the burrito I noticed there wasn't any more sauce. Eventually everything tasted the same and it was texturally uninteresting. Perhaps the addition of ingredients with a different texture and/or flavor and more evenly distributed ingredients would improve the enjoyment of the burrito. The staff are pretty nice and the restaurant is not busy and chill. I enjoyed spending my time here and would come back to try something else. read more

Himalayan Bite - Chicken Burrito - Indian Near Me - Berkeley, California

Given that it's next to Cal campus, the dishes and prices are student friendly. My friend and I ordered: -Chicken tikka -Aloo gobhi -Garlic rice -Garlic naan The chicken was good but a little dry. Aloo gobhi was delicious. I think we could've done without the garlic rice tho - buttery but mild in flavor, probably not worth the price. The garlic naan was great - a bit more doughy than average but chewy yumminess. Tho it's a self order and bus your own table, the wait staff was nice and came around to check on us. Given my experience I plan to try their lamb biryani. read more

The naan was huge and really good! I got the paneer tikka masala which was tasty but I wish I had gotten it spicier. I also accidentally ordered this thinking I got chicken tikka masala, which i probably would've enjoyed more. The workers were friendly and my group of 7 left happy. read more

Himalayan Bite - Paneer Tikka Masala - Indian Near Me - Berkeley, California

We came from San Francisco. After walking around for a long time, we decided to grab a bite and chose this café. When we arrived, it turned out they had a break from 4 to 5. Couldn't they have posted that on their website? It was an appalling attitude--they completely ruined the experience. read more

I went for lunch today, and loved their vegetarian soup, veg curry with paneer, gobi, channa and rice. So delicious and fresh on a clear, chilly afternoon! The server was so nice, and you cannot beat the price! read more

Pretty good Indian in really close proximity to Cal campus. I was originally nervous coming here once this spot was rebranded from the previous location but I am happy to say the quality of the food has stayed the same! Himalayan Bite is a reliable spot to get some grub for a quick and tasty meal. The restaurant itself is relatively small, able to comfortable sit maybe 15 people! Service is always great and staff is helpful. You order at your table from your phone via QR code and someone will bring your food in about 10 minutes! I typically go for their chicken korma, aloo saag, and chana. The korma is great! Very rich, creamy curry with good spice. Chicken is very tender and flavorful. All the vegetarian/vegan options I have eaten here have been fantastic too! I love their naan and kulcha, especially the garlic naan and onion kulcha. Very good, not overcooked and great texture. I find myself coming here in between classes or when I am on the run. A reliable place with friendly pricing, check it out! read more

I tried this before when it was called Delhi Diner, and I got palak saag again - creamed spinach - but this time with shrimp instead of lamb. The spinach was more smoothly creamed than before, weakly flavored, and utterly devoid of spiciness. The shrimp were juicy but tasted as if they'd been plopped into the spinach just before serving. Came with rice which, if you try to mix them up, tends for the spinach to sit on top of instead of mixing in with. Decent place for a quick meal. Has a fairly clean restroom, a real plus. read more

Great place I was amazed by the momo's and samosas they are amazing here they do a bang up job with both and the butter chicken and naan is also good but average you get in a good north Indian place and the service was nice and played BTS lol read more

It's really good! I just stopped by randomly unplanned because I was at TP Tea and was surprised. Good prices, fast service, good food. The place is pretty nice too! read more

Himalayan Bite - V Bento - Indian Near Me - Berkeley, California

Himalayan Bite is a new, reliable go-to for us! My god, the KALE CHAAT! An *inspired*dish! I now crave it! The naans are bliss for this carb-addict. I'll be working my way through their many menu offerings but I can't bring myself to not order the kale chaat and a naan. And chai. We came to Himalayan Bite by chance. Noodle Dynasty had just closed for the evening. Wondering where to go as we walked, just a couple doors north was Himalayan Bite. It was rather empty but it was open and we were hungry! (The sign in the window stating that they also serve Jain food was a positive bias for me.) The cherry on too: the guys working there - so welcoming. They make it clear that they want your experience to be a good one. read more

Himalayan Bite - Kale Chaat, Garlic Naan, Goat Cheese Naan. - Indian Near Me - Berkeley, California

Tasty curry and fresh, fluffy cheesy naan! We got a vegetable korma curry and a butter chicken, plus the cheesy naan to go. Serving sizes were generous. My only complaints are 1) We were drawn in by the meal combos advertised in the window, but when we started to order found out they weren't available. 2) There didn't seem to be a place on the order screen to order the various chutneys. They have a fridge full of them right behind the register, but when they gave us our food, didn't ask if we wanted any. I did request some with difficulty due to a potential language barrier. I would have paid to try them all, but instead only managed to get one small container of the mint chutney (it was good). read more

Came in for a light snack. We ordered the Kale chaat. Amazing flavors and texture. We found a hair in our dish so they re-made and comp it. Probably will still be back but you were WARNED. Dine at your own risk !!! read more

We were a bit hungry prior to Cal Basketball game, and walked by this restaurant. Decided to give it a try.....and very glad we did. The butter chicken and garlic naan were delicious! Very nice people here as well. Give it a try. read more

My brother and I shared a delicious meal. Place very popular and busy, but great staff worked hard to serve food as quickly as possible! Normally, I do not leave a review. But we were served by Prasansh, very kind and helpful young lady. Watched her stay focused and be polite. Even with rude customer, still offered amazing customer service! We had Butter Chicken, Fish Tiki Masala, and Lamb Curry. 10/10 for all. Would recommend Garlic Naan; fresh, crunchy, warm and flavorful. I have ordered DoorDash before and every time good as well, but especially nice to dine inside for first time. read more

The staff is so friendly and the food is amazing! The best restaurant on Telegraph. The ambiance is amazing. I highly recommend!

I don't often write reviews, but came here in a pinch, and staff were incredibly kind to me to with my requests. Food was also amazing, incredibly grateful for this place to be so close to campus. 10/10 would recommend to try them! read more

Hospitable staff and delicious comfort food! Will come back here soon. Mango lassi top tier.

From the moment I walked in I was expecting a great meal. And they exceeded my expectations. You'll be greated with the atomas and the sight of a busy kitchen, and a smile from Sam. The chicken bento box had tender chunks of chicken with just enough rich sauce and just the right spice. It came with rice and spicy noodles and beautifully fried cauliflower. And then there was the the Lamb Korma. Spectacular! So rich and out of this world layers of flavor. Sam checked to make sure we had everything we needed and the chef even came out to ask if we were happy with everything. It's a small place, comfortable, and I always like when I can see into the kitchen. read more

Best naan in the Bay Area!! Crisp, like you get in India, and not the doughy mass usually found around here. Warm and welcoming host. My kids loved the place which is rarely the case for most places serving subcontinental food read more

Himalayan Bite - Chicken fried rice (the bomb) tikka masala, garlic naan, cheese naan. - Indian Near Me - Berkeley, California

Got the chicken curry (spicy) and aloo palak curry (spicy) with sides of naan. Both were quite runny/watery in consistency and hard to scoop up with the naan, in addition to being bland to my taste. I had an especially hard time with the chicken curry, which had a thick layer of oil on top, even after using a few napkins to soak up the excess! But at least the naan was delicious read more

Himalayan Bite - Indian Near Me - Berkeley, California

Really enjoyed my meal here. The server was very friendly, helpful, and overall a sweetheart. I had the Chicken Tikka Masala, which was delicious. On my server's recommendation, I had it with mild heat/spiciness, which was about perfect for me. The dish included rice. I think the price and serving size were a good value. The entree included a generous amount of chicken. The ambience was pretty basic, but everything was nice and clean. I will definitely eat here again when I'm in town. read more

The best food good curry chicken make me happy after the final exam of the attitude is perfect

It's ok. Curry was a bit sweet for my liking. It did not fit my palette. Naan was overcooked as well.

Exceptionally, confusingly, delicious! Confusing because: what is a place this good doing among the dives on Telegraph Avenue? I initially confused it with the previous (also Indian restaurant) occupant of this spot, but Himalayan Bite is several notches above. We ate a completely delicious chicken biryani and lamb vindaloo and naan and lassi and raita - yes, even the raita was special. Not much to add, except that I'm glad we stumbled in here, and will be back for more treats. read more

I love momos! Their chai was also extremely delicious. The person at the register was also very nice.
