Food is always made perfectly since the day they opened their doors. I am so happy I get to eat their delicious food. I have tried most of the items on the menu, but lately I get the chicken tikka and samosa chaat with a side of garlic naan and raita. It's also worth noting that I am so impressed by the consistent positivity of the team; they are always incredibly upbeat and helpful. read more

I'm very happy that the owner takes the time to read customer reviews and genuinely cares about feedback. He addressed my comments about the takeout presentation and has made noticeable improvements to how orders are packaged and served. This is still one of the best Indian restaurants in the High Desert, and I continue to dine here regularly. Their new indoor area for dine in also very well done I wish him the best. read more

Himalayan Indian Kitchen - Broken box - Indian Near Me - Apple Valley, California

Staying in Apple Valley during a high desert sojourn, I was very impressed with the quality of the food and the service at Himalayan Indian Kitchen. I ordered dinner delivery to my Airbnb; everything arrived promptly and perfectly packaged. Most importantly, everything was delicious. Butter chicken: The incredibly rich, delicious curry sauce feels like a meal in and of itself, even without the tender bits of chicken. Put them together and you're in heaven. You are able to adjust the level of spiciness to your liking. Must order! Garlic naan: Arrived steaming hot, delicious, perfect pairing with the butter chicken. Vegetable pakoras: Tasty vegetable snacks arrived with two delicous chutneys, tamarind and cilantro, in generous portions. Highly recommended if you're in the area. And that butter chicken is probably drive-worthy. read more

Staff really friendly, food is amazingly flavorful! Such a hidden gem!! They have food to choose from kinda like a Chinese restaurant where you can order 1 to 3 item combos, as well as made to order. Totally reccomend this establishment, very authentic and delicious! Here's what we ordered: Butter Chicken Chicken Momo (we dipped it in our Butter Chicken sauce) Garlic Naan Tandoori Chicken And basmati rice of course! Clean restaurant, plenty of parking, no public restroom, limited seating but worth it 100% read more

The food here is so good! The paneer was delicious, and I liked the size of the pieces. The rice was also good especially with the sauce. I also got a chai, and I appreciate that they sweeten theirs because I love a sweet chai. It was warm and spicy and so delicious. I've also enjoyed the kheer from here, very delicious as well. The workers here are really nice, so I will definitely be back :) read more

We have dined here on many occasions. We've also ordered food to be picked up and had meals delivered by DoorDash. Every single meal was fresh, hot and delicious. If you dine in, the owners are very kind and personable. The pride in their food is reflected in the quality and taste of each menu item. We are grateful to have an amazing Indian restaurant close to home. Thank You! read more

This is now our go to for Indian food. The owner and staff are ALWAYS amazing to us and the food has NEVER been a let down. I've tried things I never normally would have and even then it wasn't bad in taste, just not something I would pick. I can't recommend this place anymore. Our favorites are the butter chicken, lamb/chicken korma, garlic naan, lamb/chicken tikka masala. I've tried the chili chicken, chicken momo, tandoori chicken, dahl makhani, and some haven't ended up favorites that is not to say they were bad! I plan on trying more things. read more

Food was great and the young lady taking our order helped us by making some great suggestions.

Finally got the chance to try Himalayan Indian Kitchen's, and let me tell you their food is chef's kiss. The butter chicken and with the Garlic Naan combined was sooo good, I also got curry chicken very yum as well. As for drink I got a super yummy creamy Mango Lassi as my dessert since I was so stuffed. The inside is super clean and neat which I loved, another thing is that the vibes inside are chill and calming even while the staff was cooking. Oh and everyone that works here are so sweet and friendly, definitely RECOMMENDED Last thing I'll say is the prices are great. read more

Delicious food. Absolutely 100% delicious. Naan was fire. Butter chicken and tiki masala also fire. The hospitality is always there. The owner is so beyond friendly every time I go. I tried the spicy butter chicken this time and he saw I was mixed emotions on the spice level so he brought me some tiki masala to mix in it. Exactly what I needed to mellow it out. Amazing people amazing place amazing food. 10/10 will always go back. read more

I've come to this place twice and I am always greeted by a nice gentleman, he was very attentive to our visit. Food was so good I didn't get a chance to snag a photo of my meal.

The food was terrible. We don't like hot spicy food but this food had no flavor at all. My mom was furious she wanted to leave the food and go. She said it was tasteless and it really was tasteless. Just awful! I'm sorry to say. read more

Well, this restaurant is a nice addition to this side of the desert, and I am all for it! This Himalyan Indian Restaurant is for the open-minded and those seeking flavor, but if you are not sure or curious about its flavors, I recommend you order one of the 3 combos offered. You not only get to visually see the dishes (as Indian food is not always visually pleasing to those who are not familiar), but selecting a combo will give you an opportunity to try a few dishes. Of course, my friend opted to order the meals in hopes of sharing our chosen dishes, and I say, for about $70, we got our money's worth. Unfortunately, they serve such meals in to-go containers, so sharing a meal was tricky but convenient to pack when I couldn't finish my Yellow Daal and Saag Paneer. I blame my fill of Mango Lassi and Naan. Mmm... Mango Lassi...think of the taste and texture as a melted mango yogurt, but cold. Are you confused yet? Let me explain. First, there are dishes I was not familiar with, so the customer service was very helpful in giving me an idea of what each dish was like. It is helpful if you were already familiar with Indian food, but if not (or just curious) and you already read this far in my review, I suggest searching the internet for descriptions of unfamiliar dishes. We were informed, with the exception of the Tandoori Chicken, that all the chicken dishes are boneless. I recommend the savory Chicken Korma, chicken simmered in a curry style sauce made with coconut. You can choose your spicy: none, mild, medium...and maybe for the more adventurous, a regular amount of spice. Yellow Daal (which I was craving) is a lentil based dish. Lentils come in various colors and flavors, and this one was yellow. I ordered it without spice and still enjoyed it. Saag Paneer has always been my favorite. I also opted not to have this dish spicy, and I loved it. So good! Again, it's not a visual dish, but I do love a good stewed spinach dish with cubes of cheese (usually goat cheese). For both the Daal and the Saag, I ate it with plain Naan bread (which you can choose from a variety of flavors). I recommend eating the Daal and Saag with Naan. Delicious! I read a review that was surprised that their meal didn't come with rice. Though we ordered a shrimp biryani (rice, which we ordered mild). The spice and flavor in the shrimp biryani were perfect. Large shrimp pieces, too! ours came with plain biryani, but really, you eat your meal with Naan. The moment you walk in, the wonderful smell and essence of Himalyan Indian food speak to you. From the cooks to the service to the food, I thoroughly enjoyed our meals. I don't know if this side of the desert deserves such wonderful flavors, but I do know that those who are not familiar with challenge the flavors and those who are familiar will be open to exploring familiar and new dishes. Many of the dishes contain coconut milk or nutty curries. Dietary needs may not be available, but many dishes can be made vegan as the meat dishes offered (respectfully reflective of the culture) are lamb and chicken. read more

The food is so good! I had tandoori chicken, tikka masala, naan and rice. The tandoori chicken was moist and had a deep, rich flavor with a perfect blend of spices. It was served with grilled onions and green bell peppers. I like mine mild and it was mild!! The tikka sauce was absolutely one of the best I have had...creamy, nice spice flavor and not too thin. I ate in but there is limited space, most people did take out. Limited non-alcoholic drinks. They do have water on the tables in beautiful copper serving pitchers. Ambiance: none Price: $23 Service: countertop ordering, served to table in to go boxes I will be back for sure!! read more

Just had dinner after driving back from Big Bear. We almost ended up having Thai food, but they were about to close. THANK GOODNESS!! We decided to stop by and check it out. They had a nice variety available for the combination meals, but we decided to order off the menu. The vegetable samosas were incredible! And the sauces were an excellent compliment to the flavors. The garlic naan was light and fluffy with just the right amount of garlic. Our mains were delicious with the perfect amount of heat. Our server was so friendly and helpful at answering all our questions. It's a great little place in a convenient location. We will definitely be back as this is now our favorite Indian restaurant (and top 5 overall) in the area. read more

Fast service and quality Indian food! The restaurant has plenty of seating, and there's ample parking in this plaza. We came on a Thursday, and it was nice and quiet. We got the Butter Chicken and 2 Item Combo of Chicken Tikka Masala and Chicken Curry. All combos come with Garlic Naan, and you should definitely order it if you choose a solo dish. The Mango Lassi is tart and smooth. You will have leftovers, their serving is generous. If you're in the area, this restaurant is worth the visit! 10/10 read more

The mango chicken I got is not what I'm accustomed to, it was more like a Chinese dish but it was still okay. The aloo mattar paneer was decent, kind of lacked flavor. I feel like an Amy's frozen curry dinner has more flavor to it. The naan was good though. I might give this place another try with different dishes. read more

Great Indian food. I am an Indian food aficionado. I have dined over the years at superb Indian restaurants in New York City. When I say this is good Indian food I come from a place of knowledge. The Butter Chicken is delicious. The Garlic Nan. the Basmati Rice and Raita make a delicious meal. Try anything on the menu, it's all good read more

Great food, always consistent. Fairly priced and tons of flavor. Reminds me of the Himalayan in Big Bear. Happy to have a delicious Indian restaurant so close ! read more

The food is good. Mad they got rid of the combos but the worse experience is due to the kids they have working there. I went in and asked for chicken tika masala and the gave me tandori chicken. I went back in to let them know of the mistake and the kid basically called me a liar telling me that is what I ordered. If the father was there, who always helps me and knows me by face this would not have happened. Will be reconsidering spending my money there. read more

As a foodie growing up in LA and having eaten Indian food all across the USA- manhattan having previously being the best I had- I must say that this place is absolutely phenomenal. The spices are 10/10, the chicken falls apart! We ordered the chicken vindaloo and the chicken tikka masala, garlic naan and basmati. It was so so good. I can't wait to go back and try the butter chicken and chicken korma, momos, etc! On top of the amazing food the service was phenomenal as well. Very kind man, making sure we liked everything and very respectful and you can tell they are happy and proud of their food. Thank you for a great experience for my hubbys first time trying Indian! read more

First time at Himalayan Indian Kitchen and won't be the last. Not the closest to me, but worth the drive, especially when in Apple Valley area. Food was piping hot and oh so fresh, with the perfect amount of kick. Ordered the Paneer Tikka Masala with medium spiciness. Just right and so creamy delicious. With a side of rice and garlic naan. Not as garlicky as some, but the freshness of the food was amazing. So, filling half for leftovers today. Great portions, great prices, super sweet staff. Lots to choose from for both meat and non meat eaters. Cashier/waiter was so attentive. Did mention they will be expanding and going from takeout type table wear to dishes. It's all good to me, but did appreciate his sharing and kind nature. Place was clean, quaint and quiet. My kinda eatery. read more

The food was great! This was our first time trying Indian food and the staff was friendly and helpful. We will be returning.

I've ordered takeout three times now and the flavors are always great. The only issue is that the chicken quality is inconsistent some pieces are fresh and tender, while others are dry or taste like they were reheated. This happens with both the butter chicken and tikka masala. If the chicken could be consistently fresh, it would really take the food to the next level. read more

So many words, so little time. Grateful there's an Indian spot nearby. I've eaten a lot of Indian food in my lifetime from a predominantly Indian area (outside of the US) and this place did not disappoint. The customer service is just as good as the food. This is what the HD needed. 11/10 read more

Fish Curry was just ok. It had salmon. The red curry sauce in it was delicious but the fish was just a little off in freshness.

Best Indian food in the whole inland empire. The food never disappoints and the staff is so welcoming. Would recommend 100%

My parents and I have wanted a closer Indian place for so long, and this place is a blessing. My mom passed away and didn't make it to see the opening but it's nice that my dad and I have something new to go to. We tried HIK once so far and it was great quality. We tried: Butter Chicken, Aloo Mattar, Paneer Tikka Masala, Roti, Garlic Naan, Chili Naan, Kheer, and Gulab Jamun. Also rice. We tried various heat levels and everything was extremely well packaged and cooked. I can't wait to go back because there are many more things I look forward to trying. Ordering via the phone was easy and the customer service was incredible. I'm always shy to try a new place and this was a great experience. It's a small interior and I think when I counted it had 5 4-seaters. read more
