    Himalayan Kitchen delivered a meal that was both comforting and full of flavor. We tried a variety of dishes, and each one stood out in its own way: * Momo Butter Curry (Beef & Chicken Dumplings): Rich, savory, and perfectly spiced. The dumplings soaked up the butter curry sauce beautifully, making every bite indulgent. * Fried Dumplings: Crispy on the outside, tender inside--an excellent contrast to the saucy momos. * Soup (Thukpa with Veggies & Chicken): This was the star of the night. Warm, hearty, and nourishing, it felt like the kind of soup that could cure any ailment. * Beef Fried Rice: Comfort food at its finest--fluffy rice, well-seasoned beef, and balanced flavors that tied the meal together. Beyond the food, the whole vibe was distinctly Tibetan. Multicolored prayer papers draped across the ceiling created a festive, spiritual atmosphere, while prayer wheels lined the walls with scrolls of prayers tucked inside. The décor added a sense of authenticity and calm, making the dining experience feel immersive and memorable. Our host was very quick to the point and friendly helping us with our selections. A fantastic dining experience. If you're craving dumplings, soul-soothing soup, or flavorful rice in a setting that transports you to the Himalayas, Himalayan Kitchen is a must-visit.

    Our first time trying Himalayan Kitchen, definitely not last. Fantastic food, very cozy place. One of those spots that warm the soul and fill your belly with wonderful food. Such a wholesome experience!

    I've been reading about the butter chicken momo and decided I had to try them. They didn't disappoint! The restaurant is small and the menu is rather limited but the momo are really good. My husband had the chicken chili. It is nice with onions and bell peppers. It was served with rice. My brother had the spicy Tibetan momo. They are very good and not too spicy. Just right. Our server was great.

    i've been wanting to try this place for awhile. definitely lived up to the hype online. delicious momos (dumplings) and veg options for the non meat eaters. we ordered the fried beef momos, veggie and potato momos & veggie fried rice. wish we could've eaten hot and fresh there but still so good. service was helpful and quick. ordered ahead of time and ready in like 10 mins. me and my niece both loved the authenticity of the space inside. the decor felt like we were transported overseas. i'd go back and eat inside.

    Fried Beef Momo

    Oh yeah. The food is good. We went during the day so it was completely empty which thank goodness because we were starving and all of their food is made to order. We got the butter curry chicken momos, fried beef momos, chili chicken (comes with white rice), beef fried rice, and the vegetable flat noodle soup. It was all sooo good. It's not heavy on the salt which allows you to eat the entire dish without getting tired of it or oversalted. The momos are delicate, the chili chicken is tender, the fried rice has the nice smokiness from being wok fried, and the soup is so light and the noodles are pillowy dumplings. Will def be back.

    Veggie Thukpa!

    Amazing service and ambience! Food will melt your heart. It does take a while to prepare but honestly worth every bite. Savory and spices are perfectly balanced!

    Mango Lasi and Tibetan Spicy Momo
    Maeleth C.

    The sheer ecstasy I felt when first biting into the Tibetan spicy momo with potato filling is something I wish for every person who is considering visiting Himalayan Kitchen. This establishment truly lives up to their name of BEST DUMPLINGS IN ATL!! Not only is the food fresh and oh so very flavorful, but it is also ready in a very timely manner. The inside of the restaurant was beautifully decorated and very clean. The service?? Quick and efficient! Will DEF be back. (Side note: do urself a favor and grab a mango lassi, literallyyy so tasty so delicious you won't regret it) .

    Butter curry momo
    BitLeigh V.

    This place is a MUST GO! There is ample street parking outside that is free. The place is quite big with lots of tables but coming here on a weeknight this place was FULL. This is a mom and pop place so keep that in mind as I've only ever saw the two owners cooking, taking orders, and bussing tables. However, there is GREAT QUICK NICE service always! She is always so cheerful, answers questions, and refills your waters attentively. The food comes out fairly quickly as well. We've gotten the butter curry momos and tibeten spicy momos. Pro strategy is get half chicken and half beef. Last time we were there they sold out of beef! Momos are a MUST here and you won't leave unhappy. We also grabbed some chicken chow mein and it was amazing. Definitely a place I love and will continue going back!

    Chicken Thukpa - Dry
    Mike P.

    Wow. Legit, authentic, Asian food that's NOT on Buford Hwy !! Here is a unique alternative to Chinese or Indian. It is somewhere inbetween. One of the staples seem to be a wheat based noodle in a few forms. As long "spaghetti", as short, flat noodles (what we call dumplings in the South USA) and as a wrapper for veggie, beef, or chicken meatballs. These are similar to what Asians call dumplings. Pinched pasta based pillows filled, then steamed. I tried the short pasta dry (not soup) with chicken and veg. Very much like an Asian version of our southern chicken n dumplings. I also tried thier filled pasta with spicy sauce which was like a sweet spaghetti sauce with a kick. Medium spicy to me. The beef version were smoky flavored, the chicken were not. Very UNIQUE dishes. It actually does have its own thing going on, which I found valuable for the times you want something different and pleasing. Next time ill try the long noodles, perhaps in broth. Huge potential here to dial in EXACTLY what ill come here for. Ill probably not have the short non soup noodles, as, just l8ke southern dumplings, they are chunks of dense dough and like little gut bombs. Very filling. Enough to share for sure. Think Gnocchi level density. I've got a suspicion the long noodle soup is the thing here. By the way, all the noodles are made on premises BY HAND. So this is a totally legit, Buford Hwy experience right here in Smyrna !

    tibetan spicy momo
    Christina K.

    I've been wanting to go to this place for so long and am so glad I finally got the chance to go! I thought they had closed down permanently and was so sad but was excited to see they were only closed temporarily. Their Tibetan Spicy Momo was DELICIOUS. The skin of the momos were so chewy and slippery, which sounds weird but trust me, it was amazing. The sauce was also really good. It came with 8 momos and we were able to get half chicken and half beef. I got the beef thukpa, which was really good, I liked the noodles a lot, but I thought the broth was a little bland. It could've used more spices and salt. Our server was great. She was really nice and funny and super efficient. Great ambiance as well. I will definitely be coming here again for their moms!

    Hi, do you have anything that is Gluten Free?

    Sorry No.

    Are you take out only?

    Yes, right now take out only. Sorry!

    Are you vegan friendly?

    Yes sir.

    Will you be open past April 15?

    Yes Sir! Sorry for the late response.

    I have never eaten himalayan food. any recommendations for a newbie?

    The momos are all delicious and a great place to start. Also the chicken fried rice is absolutely fabulous!!

    Is the meat halal?

    Sorry No.

    How's the parking situation ? Saw bunch o construction out front

    Parking is fine. The construction is on the roundabout being built just to the west of their parking lot. Make sure you route yourself to come in from the East on Roswell Street. Windy Hill to Roswell Street would probably be the easiest way.

    This is the best Indian in Cherokee county by far. And they deliver to Woodstock…read more Well done moon! Also they do a great lunch buffet.

    We started coming here a little over a year ago and felt it was a borderline 4 star--cleanliness…read morewas always questionable (constant sticky floors and utensils). We've also started noticing a decline in the food quality; little things they do to cut corners such as extra breading on anything that has breading (like gobi manchurian, chicken lollipops, etc.). All the chicken chunks in their main dishes (chicken tikka masala, chicken biryani, chicken home style curry, etc.) are all cooked until they're hard as rocks and tough as a rubber band ball--basically inedible. The tandoori chicken lying around is fairly dry, with the exception of the drumsticks, but they're all cool/lukewarm. There's also significantly less customers than there used to be, with a Saturday prime lunch time basically crickets and flies--we saw 2 tables in the hour we were there and it was empty when we got there). It's on the lower end of a 3 star now, but I'll give it the 3 due to the flavorful sauces (minus the completely bland home style curry) and the desserts are still pretty good. I hope they stop cutting corners and focus more on food quality, but I think this is our last visit here. We always came here for the tikka masala (my husband's favorite Indian dish) and considering it's inedible...I guess this is it.

    They did it again. Masti is the absolute best Indian "Street eats" restaurant in Atlanta metro area…read morehas impressed for the 4th straight time. It is rare to have a fellow chef/cook to be impressed by food. I have spent the last 30 years preparing and creating vegan/vegetarian recipes and when you have done it for so long it is hard to impress me. Masti has impressed me again, again and again. Masti Indian Street Eats in John's Creek, Ga is by far the best at executing Vegetarian Indian Street Food. Do not be put off by the name "Street food". In Indian culture Street Food is a term designated for simple hand held food sold in the streets of busy Indian cities. Masti does it the best. The dishes that I had this time are a tasty surprise. Vada Pav is a potato based veggie patty that has a buttery overtone. Savory and delicious. The best dish of the night is Palak Chat, a dish that excellently combines fried spinach in a cool salad format with a Tamarind dressing. Absolutely delicious. They have freshly made naan bread that is delicious. My wife ate the Chicken Alfredo and she said it the best "alfredo" that she has had. Of courses, it is with a South Indian taste. The saag (spinach) paneer is fresh and IS the best Indian spinach dish in Atlanta metro. The spinach tastes as fresh as the spinach that I have tasted from any farm. Their prices are fair and reasonable. Do yourself a favor and try their food. Excellent area, near movie theaters, Whole Foods, and coffee places so make a day of the experience.
