    The Classic Butter Chicken, The Himalayan Flames Naan, Dal Himalayan, Rice, Chicken 65
    April M.

    This place is worth all the hype! If there isn't hype, I'll make some. Himalayan Flames has the most delicious Chicken 65 on planet Earth- I've never gone anywhere where it isn't just a little bit dry, but here it's scrumptious and the stuff of dreams. I ordered my usual butter chicken and got a side of naan and daal with it. The price was reasonable for the portion, which was generous for both plates, and the butter chicken was tasty! I forgot to specify my spice level when ordering (I usually order hot), so mine came with a basic level which was still flavorful and had a good texture. My butter chicken was served in large pieces which I opted to cut so I could scoop them with my naan better. The naan was pillow soft with good toasting and butter. The staff was fast and filled my water cup often which I appreciated. The restaurant lighting is dim (though there are a lot of sparkling lights and candles which lends to the vibe) but there is a large window facing the road which gives it good light if that is your preference to have that view. Bonus points for my rice being so so good and soft!

    Loved the food. Ambience was really nice and comfortable. Service was solid. Price was a bit high for lunch - I would have loved to see some lunch specials to put this in the $10-15 range instead of the $18-25 range. I had the METHI MALAI CHICKEN and it was unique, salty and sweet with umami, and I would order it again in a heartbeat. The bread that came with it was a delight. The hours here on Yelp are NOT accurate (even though it's a claimed business) and don't match what's on their website. I went there for lunch, walking from my office. Attaching a screenshot from their website proving they're open for lunch - which I can also prove with my receipt that I ate there at 12:30pm. :)

    It has been a few years since we have been here, but it was just as delicious as I remembered. We arrived at noon on a Saturday, and I was one of 2 seated tables in the building. We ordered the butter chicken, 2 pieces of naan, and a mango lassi.

    I did not have a great experience my second go around. It went downhill after we fished a black, curly hair out of our soup. I could forgive that, but my chicken dish was the worst Indian dish I've had in years. They tried to get away with using chicken thighs, slicing them up and hiding them in the sauce, instead of breasts. But chicken thighs shouldn't be cooked like breast meat for a reason. They were greasy, rubbery, and difficult to cut through with a fork. I won't go below 3 stars for this review because my first experience was pleasant (the goat was good), but I probably won't be returning here.

    Food was absolutely delicious and was ready for pickup when I arrived. The Manchurian Dahl was so good as was the Chicken Tikka & Saag Paneer. Always enjoy their Cheese Naan. Highly recommend.

    Wide range of menu options, including lots of vegan. Tasty flavors with some heat. Fair pricing with portions and great service. Lots of available parking in the back. Will go back to try more.

    The food was AMAZING! If you are looking Indian food this is the perfect place. I got the rustic kadai, and it was very delicious with the basmati rice and the naan. The Andhra curry was on the spicier side but it was manageable for anyone who has a reasonable spice tolerance and garlic naan Service was also fast and the interior was cute and modern. A lot of natural lighting and cute. I can only image how the restaurant looks at night with the downtown view around. Michigan Ave is a beautiful area to be!

    I loved this restaurant! We went for my mom's birthday and staff was so accommodating and kind. We ordered a ton of dishes and every single item delivered. The portions are smaller than your average Desi restaurant, so you'd have to order more options than typically if you want to split things family style. We ended up ordering everything from the gobi manchurian, pani puri, papadum, chicken egg drop soup to the Sherpa sizzler, reshami kabob, salmon tikka, lamb korma, and saag paneer. All of the flavors were incredible and I'd definitely come back to try the other menu items!

    Food was great and the host was very nice. There is a decent amount of variety between the dishes so I'd recommend ordering family style!

At one point, it seemed like she was trying to rush us to pay, although the restaurant was half empty. We did pay but asked her to give us some space so that we could enjoy our conversation. It was my first time and I wanted to try a few things. I had the lamb smashburger, the butter chicken tacos, and the shrimp tacos with a cup of masala chai on side. Everything was on point. I don't have one complaint. The food came out hot and everything was full of flavor. The portions were generous, especially the meat on the tacos, although I would not have minded one more shrimp on each taco, and the burger had with plenty of fries. Everything was so delicious. It's really hard for me to pick a favorite out of the three dishes I had. I would definitely order them all again and I look forward to coming back so I can try some other things on the menu.
