Ordered takeout and got samosas, 3 entrees, and sides of rice and naan. The chicken makhani was wonderful--I might say it's the best I've ever had. The chicken was so tender, and the spices were super fragrant. The paneer was good, too, a nice level of creaminess. I wasn't the biggest fan of the lentil dish, but that may just be personal preference. read more

I haven't physically been here but I've ordered Uber Eats twice, and both times I've been very impressed with the quality of the food and the portion size. The food is always well packaged too. In the tikka masala, there are tons of pieces of chicken. The naan glistens with the freshness from the oven. I will be ordering again and again! read more

Cute casual hole-in-the-wall Indian spot that's BYOB! Defs a unique combination with decent prices for the area considering the good portions. The food was really good here, and comparable to other great Indian spots. The naan is soo fluffy and soft! We got the mutter paneer at a 4 spice level and it was pretty spicy!! Recommend probably a 3 or lower unless you can really handle your spice. read more

The name and menu descriptions are likely a barrier to entry for some. They're missing out. All you need to know is- this place has meat, vegetables, rice, and appetizers suitable for all the -vores, the -ians, and the GF crowd. One meal is enough for two, unless you want leftovers. Not pictured- Vegetable Samosas. Careful- the sauces served on the side have a kick. read more

My wife and I had a two person meal delivered with tandoori chicken, chicken tikka, lamb vindaloo, and vegetable samosas. It's the second time I've ordered here and both times the food has been very flavorful, fresh, and a good value for the price. Strongly recommend you order here. I've never died in but the space when I walked by looks clean and elegant. Highly recommend. read more

Great food and great service. I will definitely go back for some soup momo. Great service, very nice people.

This restaurant on a weekday evening at 9pm was packed! Given its large seating area and general popularity I expected them to be used to this traffic, but seemed like I was wrong. Since no one seemed to be seating the customers, i had ordered the food at the counter with the intention to eating in. 30 minutes later, the food still hadn't come so I wanted to make sure there wasn't any mistake in the kitchen so I went up to the counter to clarify and was very rudely told that they were very busy and the wait was now 45 mins to an hour. No semblance of an apology. Would have been nice to know beforehand too. Around 50 minutes after ordering, my food finally arrives but in a brown take away bag even though I've been sitting at a table for the last almost hour. It was a pretty terrible experience to start off the meal. I had ordered the lamb curry with a side of garlic naan and mango lassi. The food itself was quite delicious! The lassi was more tart than the norm which I liked. The curry was portioned generously with up to 8-10 pieces of soft stewed and well spiced lamb in it. I requested mild spice but there was enough to summon the phlegm monster that usually accompany moderately spiced food for me. The garlic naan was crispy and chewy on the edges and paired well with the curry. The food itself would have warranted a 4-5 rating, but the service is holding back the kitchen and can use improvement. read more

This place has the best soup momos. Was there for lunch and great combo options. We'll be back.

We order delivery from Himalayan often and I've gotten my coworkers hooked. I love their navratan korma especially because they use a cashew based gravy. My coworkers order the tikka masala and another chicken entree. I recommend ordering extra rice, the first few times we ordered, the rice portions were very small. It's a hit at our office and we get excited when we decide to order from here. read more

Ordered through ubereats for delivery and order made correctly and arrived within 40 min. The naan was fresh and soft. Mattar paneer made spicy as per request but could've had more paneer. The samosa and onion pakora were great as well along with the side chutneys. read more

Have not tried a dish here that I didn't like. The options are all fantastic and they do them all well. Chana masala, palak paneer, and Tikka masala are our favorites. The garlic naan is the best. Ordering is always easy and your food is ready quick. I wish the samosas were a little larger, more filling and less breading but they are still good. Portion sizes could be larger for the price. read more

I'm always more critical of Indian restaurants being of Indian descent but the food was great! The seating wasn't ideal but I would definitely order out one of their meals! The chicken meal is very reasonably priced and delicious. My only qualm was their inflexibility to substitute regular naan for garlic naan, without any thought. Service could be better but seems like it'd be a great takeout place. read more

I was visiting Chicago for a conference and was overwhelmed by the amount of food options on my block alone. Every place I looked up looked amazing! Indian sounded perfect. The tikka masala was so delicious! I had never tried onion Bahji before and I'm so glad I got them. The naan was great in the toaster he next day and the Channa masala was spiced really well. Every dish I ordered was so good! You can't go wrong! read more

We enjoyed the food. Attentive service. Great price (food served family style. Appetizer, salad, and one entree was enough for two people and was under $40). read more

We were looking to order Indian food to Hyde Park and our usual options weren't taking orders, so we decided to try this place. It was pretty good! The chicken chili masala and lamb saag were both better than average but not as good as our favorite places. The chili momo was excellent -- decently spicy, very flavorful, and somehow durable enough that it held together in the chili sauce even as it was driven down to the south side. Definitely order that one if you're a delivery customer. It will go in our rotation. read more

I was really hoping to love this place but I wasn't that impressed with the food. The atmosphere inside is clean and bright. My two friends and I came on a weekday evening, so the restaurant was pretty quiet. I tried the vegetable pakora, garlic naan, lamb madras, and a bite of a fish curry my friend ordered. The vegetable pakora and garlic naan were both 10/10's for sure. The batter on the pakora was not overly heavy or greasy. Almost everything about the lamb madras was boring. The sauce used in the lamb madras lacked enough spices and salt. The only positive about this dish was the fact that the lamb meat was tender. The fish curry that I tried also had similar problems (lack of spices and salt). The staff was nice and did a good job going over the menu with us, but I feel like I would only possibly come back for appetizers. For a full dinner of Himalayan/Nepalese food in the south loop, I would just head to Nepal House on Michigan Ave instead. read more

Found this place on yelp. Kind of feels like a hole in the wall when you walk in, but it was very popular so I guess a lot of people know about it. Went on a Sunday around lunch time and all the tables were consistently full. But they moved quickly and efficiently. We were seated after only 5-10min. Food was really good and fairly priced! Between 4 people, we split the following: - steamed momo ($8.95): minced chicken dumplings - samosa ($5.95): comes with 2 - Himalayan special biryani ($14.95): biryani with lamb, shrimp, chicken - lamb curry ($14.95) - 2 orders of garlic naan ($2.95 each) - 2 mango lassis ($3.95 each) I liked everything we tried! read more

Surprisingly exceeded my expectations. The service was great and the food came out incredibly fast. The food was absolutely amazing. And I don't say that lightly. Indian food is a hit or miss, usually being a miss. The food tasted home made with all the right spices and levels of hotness. We ordered the tikka massala, garlic Nan, veg simosas and lamb vindaloo. Would definitely come back! read more

Himalayan Restaurant - a variety of food items on a table - Indian Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

We've ordered from Himalayan Restaurant a couple times now for pick up. The food is good and portions are reasonable, but there's something different/off about the spices compared to other Indian restaurants, and their food is much less spicy than other Indian restaurants. If you like spicy food, I would definitely recommend to order a spicier level than you're used to ordering because their food just isn't all that spicy unless you really ask them to increase the spice. read more

Himalayan Restaurant - Chicken Tikka Masala, Chicken Makhani, Tandoori Chicken, and Naan - Indian Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

DELICIOUS! We got delivery from here using DoorDash and everything arrived on time, spill proofed, and hot. We got spicy for everything where a heat level was offered, and let me tell you they're not playing around. This is the real deal for spiciness, like they served during my trip to Northern India. We ordered: - chili momo - lamb biryani - vegetable samosa - onion naan - paneer tikka, and - tandoori roti It was hard for us to choose a favorite because they were all out of control good. My husband grew up in Northern India and he said the food was almost exactly what they would cook up back home. No Americanizing over here. This will likely become our go to Indian restaurant when we want dinner delivered. We haven't yet gone in person, but hopefully the ambiance is nice so we can dine in sometimes too. read more

A good restaurant just outside of Grant Park. We were very hungry after Lollapalooza and this was a good find (Thanks to Yelp, of course) We were confused if it were Indian, but yes it is. It is Indian with a bit of Nepalese flavor in it. Lunch specials seem to be cheaper, but other than that be prepared to spend around 20$ for a good meal. I order Chicken Makhani and it was spicy (because I wanted it that way). It was a bright red curry and I loved it. It came with a bowl of basmati rice. Also ordered a Garlic Naan, and it was soft and smooth. Well made Indian bread and a good combo with Chicken Makhani. My friend ordered Chicken Briyani and I hada bit of it and it was a close 5 star as well. We went there by 9:50 pm, just 10 minutes before closing time and the people over there were friendly and accommodating and they were ok with us dining over there. A must go if you are around the area. read more

From its casual exterior, and unique café style interior, you'd assume that there is nothing too special here. But as soon as you taste the food, you realize how wrong you are. The Chicken Biryani, Garlic Naan, and Chicken Tikka Masala over white rice was the perfect meal for two. The spice was right, and the meat was cook well beyond expectations. One thing I'd comment on is the availability of the waiters. The environment is very lax which may attribute to the staff especially late night. read more

I've passed this place many a time on my way with my daughter to the Fine Arts Building. Unassuming from the outside, but pass through the door and the wonders of deliciousness begin. The place was buzzing with activity on an early Wednesday evening, and I was lucky to grab one of the last available tables before the small wait began. The waitress was quick to stop by and grab my order, and I'm thankful to her for talking me down from my overly eager request for "extra spicy" chicken vindaloo to a more reasonable (and ultimately delicious) "hot". The vindaloo was one of the best I've had, and the naan was warm, fluffy and buttery. Based on that one tasty experience I would definitely come back and I recommend stopping in here. I also noticed quite a few takeout orders coming in, so it was pretty obvious a popular place. read more

Excellent food. Many food delivery services were picking up food from this place. Will definitely order from here again.

Great momo, and keema mutter. Very flavorful . My fav was actually the naan though. Very fresh and cooked perfectly.

I have passed by this place for quite some time and hadn't tried it until recently. First, the service was excellent! I really felt like they cared about us and you could feel that energy when you walked in. I ordered the chicken curry and my BF ordered the lamb curry. Both dishes were great--served with rice and I also ordered some naan which was delicious. Our server asked us what spice level we wanted and both were catered to our tastes. He even stopped by to check that the spice level was OK (it was). Great food, thoughtful staff, overall great experience. We will be back. read more

The food was great, but if you have to wait 30 minutes to get the bill (after being repeatedly ignored when trying to get the staff's attention), and another 15 or so to get someone to come back and process payment, it's not worth it. Very disappointing! read more

Yum!! This place is such a hole in the wall but is so good. The spices are so flavorful and the curry tikka masala is especially good.

The staff are so kind and super helpful and I would definitely return! read more

Himalayan is really a good addition to South Loop. I have been going here for quite sometime so I think it's time to give them a review. The price and the portion are definitely worth it. And the taste is super good. You can definitely taste the spices. My favorite is the momo (a fancy way to say dumpling!). At first, I only tried the regular momo, but when I was sick, decided to get the momo soup. And OMG, it was perfect to fight my stuffy nose. Last week, I got their fish curry. Again, they didn't disappoint me at all. It was sooooo good. Delivery is faster than the grubhub estimate time so it's a plus. One star for taste One star for the reasonable price One star for the portion One star for the cleanliness of the restaurant And lastly one star for the delivery Keep up the good work, Himalayan! read more
