    Brought our son and his finance here for dinner to celebrate their engagement. We ordered so much food, see my pictures, everything is so flavorful with some amazing spices. Servers and staff are attentive and friendly. The place is small and I would recommend reservations.

    Beautiful decor

    This clean, peaceful, friendly restaurant is a treat.we went for lunch and the white tablecloth and cloth napkins were an added touch. The servers are friendly and check back frequently. Many Vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free options are available. The real star was the food which is beautifully spiced and attractively served. We had a shrimp curry with brown rice, naan and a lovely salad with delicious dressing , the sosa special was a compartmented tray with chicken, paratha, incredible spinach plus other goodies including a small serving of rice pudding. Parking was easy around the park and it was fun to explore some of the little shops nearby. T

    Restaurant Week 2026 What an incredible value for Restaurant Week -- lunch for four for just $50! I truly hope they had an amazing week and gain tons of returning customers because Himalayan went above and beyond. The four of us had Wednesday noon reservations, and I'm so glad we did as nearly every table was full. We ordered the Restaurant Week pre-fixe menu for 4. We started with lentil soup. Light, flavorful, and with a wonderful texture. Next came the pakora appetizers (so tasty!) served with chutneys. Perfectly crispy without being greasy. Next was an unexpected gorgeous salad topped with fresh strawberries, dried cherries, and a bright mango dressing. The mains included: Chicken Tikka Masala Chana Muter Aloo Gobi (vegetable curry) Rice Plain naan Every bite was delicious. I'm a big fan of chana, so that was my personal "main," and it did not disappoint. The only small note -- there were maybe six pieces of chicken in the tikka masala, which didn't quite feel like enough for four. That said, it worked out fine for our group. We already love this place, and this experience was such a great reminder of why.

    What a wonderful dinner I just had at Himalayan. Located right off the Town Square in Windsor, this Indian restaurant was warm and cozy on a chilly December night. At 4:30, when they open for dinner, a line had already formed to snag a table. The staff were very pleasant as they got everyone seated. The menu had a plethora of vegetarian and vegan dishes. For dinner, they start you off with a small cup of their lentil dal soup, which was much appreciated and a nice touch. I ordered the Aloo Gobi with brown rice (rice comes with each entree and no up charge for brown rice.) We also got garlic basil naan, which was a large portion for $5.99. Everything was amazing-very flavorful and well presented. It's been a while since I've had really good Indian food and Himalayan absolutely delivered on a wonderful meal. I'd definitely come again.

    Chicken Tikka Masala
    Amanda L.

    This place is great - tasty food and nice people! They start the meal with a lentil soup. We typically order the lamb shank biryani, so flavorful and such tender lamb! So delicious. We have also tried the pani puri, samosa chaat, tika masala, eggplant dish, saag paneer and garlic naan. Everything has been delicious but I wish their food is a little spicier! I don't handle spicy well but even their 4/5 level spice isn't very spicy.

    Lamb Vindaloo
    Becky B.

    Great service and food. Lamb vindaloo had just the right amount of spice. My friend had a seafood dish that they couldn't stop raving about! There were definitely no leftovers to take home because we finished everything!

    Garlic Naan, Lamb Curry, Chicken Tikka Masala.

    Was in the area on a weeknight later in the evening and Himalayan was one of the only open restaurants. Just about everything was delicious. Ordered Garlic Naan, Gobi Manchurian, Fish Pakora, and Chicken Tikka Masala. The star of the show was the Lamb shank curry. Super tender, not gamey, and the curry itself had a lot of flavor. The staff was also very nice and attentive. If I ever find myself in the area I'll definitely be back!

    FLAVORS and a VEGANS DELIGHT. Need I say more. This restaurant has been on my list to try for a very long time. Today was the day. My only regret, not eating here sooner. Their reviews are out of the world and now I know why. The secret is in the flavors. Everything we ordered was very pleasing. So fresh! So tasty! So happy! If you're vegan or Gluten free, you're in luck. You have choices. In fact, so many choices that the menu can be overwhelming because there are so many options. The hospitality is humbling. The culture is kind and really wish this restaurant was closer to me. Don't miss giving it a try.

    This was a fun find for our trip to Napa/Sonoma and I'm so glad that we made the decision to have dinner here. Thankfully we made a reservation for our group of 6 and did not have to wait very long to be seated! Staff were all incredibly friendly and made us feel immediately at home and cozy. It was busy, boisterous and beautiful -- fun and traditional. Everyone loved their dishes and I appreciated the atmosphere, we'd definitely go back. The soup to start was SO GOOD and I was happy that I ended up ordering a bowl of it with my dinner while I tried bites of everyone's main dishes. Great flavor, great food, great people. 5/5.

    Lentil Soup Dal
    Juanna F.

    Had dinner with group of four including a baby on valentines evening. They had valentines special on the menu but service was extremely slow and our requests and order were not met, including having to request for baby high chair three times. The food came out so slowly that we had to get more than half of our order to go. Enjoyed the lentil soup, and samosa, cheese naan, chicken vindaloo most. Momo, salad with crispy rice and avocado, garlic naan, and cinnamon naan were decent. Chicken tikka masala was okay, mixed kebab was okay- chicken was average, I'm not a huge fan of lamb, and salmon was tender. Overall, good food and good portion for the price. I understand it was a very busy evening, but I hope in the future they prepare ahead of time especially if they offer something like a valentines special on the menu because it felt like we spent two hours in the restaurant with less than half our food that came out during our dine in experience.

    We enjoyed a delicious lunch here today. The lunch specials are an incredible deal. They include lentil dal soup, a salad, rice and a main dish. I appreciate being asked first what spice level you prefer- I'm a medium spicy and my lunch partner likes mild. The soup was so simple yet amazing. Their naan is quite fresh. I enjoyed the hot chai as well. Very pleasing and colorful decor. Service was kind but a touch on the slower side. Will absolutely return here.

    Chicken Coconut Curry, Garlic Cilantro Naan
    Gabriela T.

    The food was good. I have a gluten and dairy allergy. I ordered the mushroom pakora appetizer. Their lentil soup is amazing! I like when they bring the hand towel to wash your hands prior to eating. The server was great! I always enjoy eating there. I especially like their booths.

    Do they have "junk fees" on their bill?

    No Mark, your total bill is what you purchased for , a solid bill and no junk never added like credit card fees and much more but not here. Thank you for your interest.

    Yes we have air conditioning and heater inside?

    I cannot answer this questions since we ate outside in one of most beautiful evenings.

    Is this place have airconditioner indoor?

    We ate outside on a gracious day so I do not know if the restaurant is air conditioned inside. I assume they are but call.

    I see there are gluten-free appetizers, are there gluten-free entrees as well ? Thank you

    Yes, just check with them. My daughter loves this place due to the GF offerings

    What a wonderful experience at Essence Indian Cuisine. My sister and I enjoyed the Chicken Korma…read morealong with some other very delicious dishes. The food was so good. I am sorry that I only found this place now, it's been open for 4 years. Mr. Bala our server was wonderful. I will be going back for sure.

    This was my second visit and was a delightful meal. I first came with a coworker and they ordered…read morethe pani puri, something I'd never had. After trying it I had to come back with my wife to share that experience. It's a crispy and savory appetizer that comes with a tamarind and mint juice that when combined is an experience itself. Both refreshing and comforting - it tastes like a healthy snack that is also a close comparison to texture of potato chips. We also ordered two naan and we each got butter chicken. They were delicious, flavorful, and filling. To celebrate Father's Day we each got a dessert. The saffron ice cream was super unique, and was enjoyable. The pudding was very tasty and was our preference. The ice cream we both felt was refreshing and not overly sweet. Our service was wonderful - reservation and they called to confirm (about 5 minutes before) and had us seated immediately. Our waiter checked on us often without being too frequent, a good balance of support. Ambiance is intimate - smaller indoor seating area of about 10 tables and you can see the staff the whole time. Clean and comfortable restaurant and great service. Highly recommend - and I'd recommend the naan, butter chicken, and pani puri (going to adventure out and try more when we come back again!)
