While waiting for traffic to abate, loved eating Lamb Saag w/ Butter Naan and Lentil Soup. Well balanced flavors and attentive staff! Loved the calming music in the background too. So nice to find this gem around at the end of a workday. read more

Himalayan House Restaurant - Lamb Saag with Butter Naan plus Lentil Soup - Indian Near Me - Chula Vista, California

*Tasty food *Cozy ambiance *great customer service Still one of my go-to spots in Chula Vista for some delicious chicken korma! Himalayan House is a quiet, cozy restaurant that never disappoints. Today we ordered our usual chicken korma with garlic-cilantro naan, always so flavorful and comforting. We also tried the chicken momo; I wasn't a big fan of the red sauce it comes with, but once we asked for their spicy house sauce, it made the momos taste so much better. We added an order of vegetable pakora with their mint chutney... and wow! That mint chutney is tasty with the perfect spicy kick. A shout out to Ash for taking care of us and recommending the spicy house sauce. If you're in Chula Vista and craving something flavorful, you've got to try this spot. Highly recommend! read more

Ordered take out from Himalayan House Restaurant on a recent trip to the San Diego area. Garlic cilantro naan - Finally, a garlic naan with real flavor! Unlike the many others that I've tried in the past that barely hint at garlic, this one was wonderfully garlicky. Just look at the visible pieces of actual garlic in my photo. Saag tofu - Saag tofu is an unusual and welcome option--it's typically saag paneer, a cheese I tend to avoid. They provided a very generous portion, and it paired perfectly with the included basmati rice and the garlicky naan. The Chicken Tikka Tandoori was outstanding! The chicken was flavorful, perfectly charred, and moist, and the portion size was massive. It filled up the entire togo container. Mango Lassi is our standard order, and this one was a winner! It had a wonderful, fresh taste, clearly made in-house rather than poured from a jug or premade. All the food was packed securely, neat, and included utensils for us. read more

Friendly staff and delicious food. We had cilantro garlic naan, lamb tikka masala and chicken korma. Very flavorful. Will be back soon

All foods we ordered weee so delicious!! We ordered too much foods. Butter chicken was very creamy and sweet. Himalayan vi was very flavorful and good amount of spices. People work there were nice. They do Military discount which is nice There was a small TV. It showed Indian TV or movie but I didn't hear anything. It may no sound. It is a casual restaurant. I recommend this place. read more

Family dinner but they didn't want to do family style. Personally, this is a perfect place for family style. Lots of items ordered but pics are of the garlic cilantro naan, sweet naan, goat curry, chai, and mulligatawny soup. They also give you a cup of lentil soup with each main dish. The lentil soup was tasty but on a bit of the watery side. The mulligatawny soup, chicken and lentils, was delicious. I just wish they didn't use precooked chicken from the tandoor oven. The savory naan could've used just a tad more time in the oven. What surprised me was the sweet naan. It made for a nice dessert too at the end of the meal. My hubby put some raita on it and liked that combo. Their chicken monos were nicely seasoned and juicy. They give you some Himalayan sauce to go with it, gave it a nice little tang. My hubby's goat curry was medium spicy and it had a good little kick. The only thing about goat is you are contending with lots of bones. It was a cool evening so I was excited to have their chai. Unfortunately, it was watery and not very spicy at all. I love a real chai with a good kick to it. We will go again and I will probably try a lamb dish next time. read more

Excellent food! They also donated to a recent fundraiser at Sweetwater Woman's Club.

This is the first time I've tried Indian food and it was truly an excellent experience. I came with a friend who has been eating this delicious food for years and he recommended this place. The people who served us were very kind and helpful. Even the gentleman who was helping us suggested a spicy sauce, which was spicy but above all delicious. The dishes my friend suggested were, in my opinion, the best. I'm looking forward to trying this delicious food again. I invite you to give this place a try. The decor, atmosphere, customer service, and music were phenomenal. SUPPORT LOCAL BUSINESS read more

Was my go to place for Nepali food, wish they continued their lunch specials. They still have good food, would recommend

Himalayan House Restaurant - I left a $20 tip asked for their go to meal, I could care less about the price dude gives me this maybe because he didn't like me. - Indian Near Me - Chula Vista, California

I was looking for Indian food closer to the house and found this spot off of Broadway. Lots of stars but another yelp head scratcher. Maybe I ordered the wrong thing. Chicken tikka masala is pretty basic, I know. Ordered it x2. One spicy and one mild. Luck for me they were equally spiced and offered no heat or flavor. Consistency is key! The tandoori was actually decent, but due to inflation...you'll pay 26 dollars for 3 shrimp, 2 pieces of chicken breast and 1 piece of lamb. Lots of veggies though. The best part was the complete rip off that is the 911 sauce. $3.50 for a tiny sauce that was neither hot nor flavorful. This place is a no go and no thank you. read more

Himalayan House Restaurant - 911 sauce. Skip it - Indian Near Me - Chula Vista, California

Nothing about this place really stood out to me. The location was a 3. The atmosphere was a 2. The service was a 2. The food if it was amazing could have bumped it up but it was barely a 2. I left very unimpressed, hungry, and disappointed. My taste buds were not engaged in any complex flavors. I guess it's "good" because there's not a lot of options in the city. Came here on a Saturday evening around 4pm. It looked like they were cross training someone at the register. But both looked bored and like they didn't want to be there or talking to us. The only greeting I got was "what do you want?" I ordered the Paneer Korma and Mixed Tandoori. Overall. Not impressed with the flavor profile. 2 stars. read more

Always the best Nepalese / Indian cuisine in town with a very reasonable price. My go-to whenever I crave Himalayan dish.

Extremely fast service, all of the food came out to the table quickly and very hot. My son liked the chicken Momo. Loved the Garlic Naan of course I also liked the Chicken Korma, I went with level 3 spice. It was warm but not overwhelming. We will be back. read more

Hands down the best place I recommend to have Himalayan flavored food. Big selection of chicken, lamb, and goat. The people working at this location are always helpful to understand menu items and super patient to customers. Please order there mango lassi, trust me, this will complete your order. The restaurant is very traditional, really warming and welcoming to dine in. I recommend this location. read more

The best indian food we love to get the butter chicken and saag aloo along with the samosas. Never disappoints!!

Ok, I've ordered from Himalayan House Restaurant for a long, long time and I've procrastinated on posting a review because I selfishly wanted to keep this secret for myself. Staff have always been helpful and quick with fulfilling orders. The food is stellar. We typically order their chicken tikka masala, butter chicken and lamb tandoori entrees. All of these dishes are always perfectly cooked, savory, saucy and palatable. You have the option to specify the heat level on the entrees, using a scale of 1 - 10. Be warned, ordering a dish 10/10 heat will cause your nose to run, your lips to burn and mouth to tingle. It hurts so good! Of course, we also order their naan bread to slop up all the sauce. Their kheer (rice pudding) is the perfect dessert to end an amazing meal. It's normally served warm and it's just a tad sweet. My only complaint is that I wish they gave you more kheer per order. We typically pay $75-85 (with tip). read more

Second time here because the first was very good. The sweet naan is amazing- get it. Try a Taj Mahal beer, enough for three glasses. Entrees begin with caraway & turmeric spiced Himalayan lentil soup. Cucumber water is a refreshing surprise. My main dish this time was vegetable curry full spice. This gringo could take it with mango lassi. My wife had Tandoori Tikka Chicken which came on a sizzling iron like fajitas. If you are not vegan, try that. Otherwise, try any dish with Himalayan sauce. read more

Himalayan House Restaurant looks and acts like a small kitchen, including the teenager who doesn't care about his looks, nor his attitude towards customers. He was unfriendly and rude, luckily another guy step in at times but at the end, he also appeared lackluster. As for the food, I've had better...much better. The Paneer Pakora is supposed to be deep fried but this wasn't even close and the taste was forgetful. The Chicken Chhoila was something unique but again forgetful...and both dishes looked unappealing and slapped together. The Lamb Tikka Masala was simple and basic (not good) while the Mushroom Tikka Masala was decent. Suffice to say that we'll NEVER come back her again and ward off any one from trying this place, it's just not worth your time. read more

I have to said this Restaurant has been one of our favorites. Very nice family owned Restaurant here on Broadway Blvd here in Chula Vista. They are always friendly here. The food here has rich flavor & spices come on your palate. I love the Vegetable Samosa stuffed with chick peas and spices also. The Butter Chicken is a big favorite, very mild it has no chili spices even thou it look red hot here..it's delicious in every bite. Chicken Korma was great my 1st. Time having this dish and it didn't disappoint. All the dishes here are very good delicious The Naan bread is delicious warm pillowy bread char on the bread made fresh ordered 2 garlic naan packages it warm when it came. We will keep coming back read more

We popped in starving after a day at the zoo. The restaurant is clean and comfortable with beautiful chandeliers. The waitress promptly came to take our order. We had the Momo, Pakora, Himalayan curry with rice and garlic Nan bread. We also ordered the 911 sauce, the Raita and a mango lassi. The waitress let us know ahead of time that there would be a 12 minute wait time on the dumplings (Momo) which was fine especially because the other dishes came out so quickly. The food came out with a lovely surprise appetizer, a cup of lentil soup for each of us. The soup was amazing.... Subtle with cumin seed and a refreshing lightness. The Pakora was crispy and packed with veggies. The curry was thick and rich filled with all kinds of deliciousness ( shrimp, chicken, mutton, paneeer, cauliflower, broccoli, peas, carrots and mushrooms)....... I know it sounds like these things might not all belong together but trust me they do! The Momo strangely reminded me of a cross between mandoo and xiao long bao with an Indian twist. It was good, but not my favorite. The Rita was fresh and delicious. The 911 sauce was as hot as they implied and super yummy. My son loved the Mango Lassi. The server was attentive but didn't hover. And we got all of this for $65 and change.... What a great deal and hidden Gem. read more

SO good. I got butter chicken (with a side of naan or rice included; I chose naan) and mango lassi to-go -- both were absolutely delicious! The amount of naan was perfect for the butter chicken. It was also worth 2 servings for a single person. And contrary to other reviews, I didn't find the mango lassi to be too sweet; it was just right and quite refreshing. Service was also chill and there is a private parking space. Highly recommend; I would definitely return here for more! read more

Honestly, the new team is so much kinder and nicer. The lady who stays at the front is extremely kind and respectful. Any time I have an encounter with the owner or the other workers they give attitude when I ask for utensils or napkins.

I have been here several times. The food is and service was great. Even with a bug group, the waiter was very attentive.

I hate leaving negative reviews, but the food was so expensive and disappointing. We saw the high ratings on Yelp and ordered on UberEats...I would have returned the food had we eaten in person. Everything tasted like cream without any sort of spices or salt. Even the filling in the samosas tasted buttery mashed potatoes (which I love, but not when I'm ordering Indian food.) We literally put cumin, curry powder and salt on the expensive food to make it taste decent. They also forgot the mango lassi, which I would have overlooked if the food had been good. I'm very confused whether they just rushed the order or have a new cook. There's no way a restaurant can have this high rating with this quality of food. I hope the cooks and owner see this and do something to make this right. read more

Food was amazing and some of the best I've had. The service was on time and will return!
