My wife and I visited on a Thursday night and found the atmosphere to be quiet and relaxing. We were curious to try this spot since it replaced the Chinese restaurant, and we're so glad we did! Our server, Harpreet, was fantastic. She was very attentive and proactive, warning us that the chicken biryani has a kick. Since my wife prefers mild food and I like moderate heat, her guidance was much appreciated. We ordered the chicken biryani, garlic naan, and butter chicken-everything was delicious. The ambiance is clean, beautiful, and feels quite upscale. We can't wait to return and try more of the menu! read more

Himalayan Kitchen - Garlic naan, butter chicken, chicken biryani - Indian Near Me - Tracy, California

Amazing goat curry. 8/5. The flavors of the onion, curry leaves, garlic, were so well blended and caramelized veggies made a delicious curry melody. Butter Chicken 7/5. Great creamy chicken, a little sweet- great blend. Basmati rice- $4. Not just plain rice- has curry leaves and spices inside made it special. Mango lassi- creamy, thick sweet mango lassi. $4 Naan Butter- $1.49, great price and great bread, soft chewy. Not fluffy, but very delicious. The service is a little bit difficult due to the low number of servers and English barrier, with online menu, but waitress/host/bus girl was very kind and patient. Nice restaurant interior- great to sit and eat. read more

Cold weather called for some hot desi bites, and Himalayan Kitchen happened to be running a happy hour where each portion was just $4.99, perfect timing. I called ahead, placed my order over the phone, and by the time I got there, it was ready within five minutes. Not bad at all in terms of wait time. I ordered Punugulu, Vada and Mysore bonda, and all three were exactly how they should be-crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy inside, and cooked through perfectly. Honestly, the bites themselves were spot on. But... my only gripe today was the chutney. Chutney is as important as the main, if not more-IYKYK. This one was neither coconut nor peanut; the color and texture were just off. I'm guessing it might've been their take on ginger chutney? No clue. It definitely took away from the overall experience. Hopefully they fix that, because everything else was great. read more

Food was delicious and service was so so... Ordered samosas, veggie curry, butter chicken, rice and naan. Was told to use the online menu in lieu of physical menu. The online menu showed four samosas per order and snd received two. Was told the online menu showed small samosas in lieu of the large ones that were delivered. In either case the food was delicious. read more

The reason for 2 stars is the food is actually pretty good but the service is terrible. I placed an online order at 4:01 pm, mind you I've been placing online orders with this place for almost a year now and never had an issue. Today, I go to pick my order up after 30 minites like the text told me and was told there was no order. I checked the Novatab (site they use) and the order is gone but my card had been charged. I tell the woman at the counter and she says, "maybe you placed it with Mountain House." I kept showing her my account where it says Himalayan Kitchen Tracy. She laughed then tells me, "oh it says minus here." I said, "yes, meaning you guys took the money from my account. The minus means it is taken from my account." Thankfully I was also sent a text message because the Novatab doesn't send you an email. I kept telling her I was charged and the order says it was placed but of course she kept calling me a liar saying that the order was from November. So I leave and call to speak to a manager because she said she had to wait for the manager to come at 5 pm. The "manager" then says they don't see the order but they see one from November and I keep telling him I showed the girl where the order was placed today and charged today. He then says don't worry he will get me my money back and I asked how if you guys keep saying you don't see the order. He then says he is going to talk to his electronics team. I told him when it fully goes through I'll dispute the charge and just not come back to them again. Very disappointing when I've been coming here for a while now. To be called a liar and my money be taken. I am posting the proof as well. Update: 01/09/2026 charge fully posted even though they swear the order never came through. read more

We stopped by this place on our way back home from travel. Heard great things from my Tracy friends. Great ambiance. Grateful that they were willing to accommodate us 20 minutes before closing. Our table of 6 ordered Tandoori chicken sizzler, Goat biryani, Kadai Paneer, naan and Chai. Chicken sizzler (5/5) perfectly done, sizzling hot and flavorful. Goat biryani (4/5) was decent, the rice could have been flavorful, Kadai Paneer (2/5) was too sweet seemed like from too much ketchup. Chai was good, but they did not serve it in a hot cup, but instead served it in regular water cup. read more

I will never come back here the server was bad and they did not have rice, noodles and other things. Server had a face that she hated her job. All the tables were dirty. read more

The name is quite misleading. We came expecting Himalayan/Indo-Nepalese cuisine, but the menu is predominantly Andhra-style Indian food. After we sat down, we realized this is the same restaurant as the Mountain View location, where we had a similar experience and never returned for the same reason. They were also serving a limited menu (only curries and naan) during our visit, the service was slow, and several tables sat with used dishes for quite a while without being cleared. If you're looking for Andhra-style food, this may be for you--but don't let the name set the wrong expectation. read more

The food was awesome and the ambiance was excellent must try . This is my 6th time over here i love this place

Worst customer service. There will be no one at front desk and people just leave. It will take forever to get the order. Don't recommend this place at all. read more

Not sure how ling this place has been open, but all the decor seems new and fresh. I took a large party of colleagues to lunch here unannounced and they had no trouble accommodating. We ordered a lot of different foods we all picked from and frankly, I don't know the names of anything I had, but I can say all of it was spectacularly delicious. Our one Indian colleague agreed as well. The server was so very polite. She frequently asked, "May I?" when intending to place another plate of food on the table. Unnecessary, but so very thoughtful. The owner came out after a bit to ask if there was anything we needed. He was interested in conversing with all of us asking where we were all from. He seemed sincerely interested in ensuring our satisfaction. I have nothing negative to say about this place. If they are a new restaurant, I ask that they maintain this quality going forward. It'll keep people coming back. Thanks for a lovely lunch! read more

Management sucks they dont what they doing 0star. Wasted 125$ when u gonna give order they gonna come back after 20 mins telling u its out of stock.

My family and I enjoyed last Saturday as we celebrated our son's birthday earlier we enjoyed everything about our visit to Himalayan's kitchen and decided to cater from them for this occcasion.Itwas a delightful experience from start to finish.

We had the most fun part .. indoor live pani poori stall .. that was a big hit ... the staff and the Taste of Panipoori , the crunchy poori as well as the flavor of paani was excellent... Thanks to Himalayan kitchen for making this day a special and memorable event read more

Place is nice, looks clean awesome lights. Lights were flickering a bit. Food was awesome I got butter chicken amazing 5 star food service was nice love the menu on phone. But should have paper in case. Overall not bad at all! read more

Stopped in to try their butter chicken special. The first bite, well I could test every flavor as it popped with just an overload of goodness. But my lord I was not expecting it to be as spicy as it was. I can handle heat, and I love a good butter chicken but this thing KICKED. It was amazing but it was like a sucker punch, a good one? If that's a thing. Also for garlic naan, and it hit perfect with the sauce from the butter chicken. The service was phenomenal as they were very tentative. It was slow so I would like to see how the two girls handle in a dinner rush. read more

My wife and I visited Himalayan Kitchen in Tracy, California, and we were blown away. The restaurant was spotless, and we were lucky enough to be served by HARPREET, who delivered what was easily the best service I've ever had at an Indian restaurant--maybe any restaurant, period. The food came out fresh, fast, and absolutely delicious. We started with the Malai Tikka (I believe that's what it was called)--marinated chicken with a creamy sauce and a delicious coleslaw on the side. The green chutney it came with paired perfectly with everything. Our second appetizer was the Garlic Chicken HK, and it was on a completely different level. Crispy chunks of moist, perfectly battered chicken packed with flavor, with little pieces of crispy garlic mixed in--honestly incredible in every way. For dinner, we ordered the Shahi Ghost Biryani. It was super flavorful, the goat was extremely tender, and the rice was cooked to perfection. The raita it came with might be one of the best I've ever had. Overall, this is hands-down one of the best Indian restaurants in Tracy. It's clean, welcoming, reasonably priced, and serves incredibly fresh food. And the star of the entire experience was HARPREET. She is truly one of the best servers I've ever had. If I could give this place 10 stars, I would--unfortunately, I'm only allowed five! read more

We ordered sweet corn soup, and while the taste was good, the bowl was full of peas and carrots! I am sure they used frozen peas and carrots that we didn't expect to see, at least not in the amount that we saw. We hoped for a better experience with the main course, malai kofta. But the kofta had such a hard covering that it was hard to cut through with a fork and a spoon! I would give a 4-star rating for ambience and the service, but food is what you go to a restaurant for. So this was a disappointing experience. read more

Awesome food, consistent taste. Food is fresh and hot. I would recommend this restaurant for anyone who love south Indian spice food. Both takeout and dine in experience are phenomenal!! Definitely going again here read more

The food, especially the Biryanis are pretty good. Best biryani in Tracy area. The service is a tad slow, but the tasty food covers it up. read more

We dinned here for the first time on Saturday. We ordered Chicken Sizzler and Shahi Gosht Biryani... both entree's were fresh and tasty. However, Ongole chicken biryani was not as good. Meat was deep fried and dry. Other than that gulab jamuns were amazing!!! I would advise to even out the proportion of the rice and gravy for the biryani. Rice was very less!!! Customer service was very good. Thank you!!! read more

Stopped in while car getting an oil change. Pleasantly surprised. The young lady that waited on us was very friendly, polite, and informative. She asked if we've had Indian food before. We said no except for butter chicken. She also asked about our spice tolerance which is pretty low. She made some recommendations and the meal along with her attentiveness was amazingly good. Will definitely come back. read more

I love the gobi starter here and fried rice here. Love coming back here! Would love to cater from here for any of the events. read more

Food was okay. I had the biriyani chicken that was supposedly gravy like, but they made it dry and barely any gravy as they said. The food took one hour and five minutes to arrive. I was hungry that night, so I stayed and waited patiently for my food. It is too bad they took so long. My food was not warm, and it was dry as I said. It lacked flavor for a place that is supposedly authentic. I came in for the vibe, and my food did not look the way people made it out to be. I also ordered the butter chicken, that too was dry and lacked flavor. They didn't put a flower on top like the photos. That was disappointing as I was excited to come in for the experience. I wouldn't go in again as the flavor was not great compared to other authentic places. Food wasn't even hot even though I wanted an hour and half and they took a very long time to bring out my food, thus why I'm giving them two stars. read more

Only place with unlimited panipuri in Tracy / mountain house area . They alter spice level per request

We split a garlic chicken appetizer, a chicken biryani, a Szechwan chicken fried rice, and garlic naan. The portions were generous and well prepared. We will definitely return to try other items. read more

Great Food! Excellent food and service, with reviewers praising their traditional/ authentic Indian dishes and friendly staff.

The food taste good, we had paneer gravy and paneer biryani. The tandoori roti was soft, which is quite rare. The service was great and soothing ambiance. We had dinner at this restaurant as we were visiting the water park, now this will be our go-to place whenever we travel here. read more

Probably tried every single Indian spot in Tracy, but this is by far the best. Great quality food, the best rice, and well priced.

Ordered special deal on Biryani's on Tuesdays and they reduced the meat quality , so it's not a deal anymore. Same thing with reduced size dosas on Thursday specials. read more

Thank you Komal for being our server. Butter chicken was awesome with garlic naan. Sure visit again.
