    Yum! Came here on a Sunday afternoon and we sat outside with my dog in tow. Service was great and our server was friendly. I believe the owner was there that came to our table as well. Nice people. The food was really good! Never tried aloo tamaa but my gf suggested it. And the okra dish was soooo good. Think these two dishes are my most favorites going forward. Garlic naan was fresh and hot too. Must try! Cute little mom & pop place on holly st.

    A friend picked this place since we both haven't been here and we both wanted Momos! We were both excited to try Veal Momos as you don't see those often. Sadly, they were very underwhelming. We both agreed we wouldn't eat those again. The stand outs were the Aloo Gobi and Lamb Curry combo. We got the Curry a little spicy and the Gobi mild. The flavor combo was delicious! The lamb was moist and flavorful and the Aloo Gobi was just the way we both happen to like it. The peshwari naan wasn't the best but I'll take it. She got the Garlic naan and said the same. I would come back here again for both entrees. Service was attentive and staff was nice. There's street parking and pay for parking.

    I went here on my birthday with my parents and my brother. My parents had questions about the food and drinks and the waiter answered them proficiently. For my beverage I ordered a mango lasso. For my food, I ordered aloo gobi vegetable thali. It came with naan, lentil, and basmati rice. The entree was the aloo gobi which is potato cauliflower curry. He asked if I wanted mild for the spice level and I said yeah. It took around 10-15 minutes for my food to arrive. It was pretty mild, I should've asked for medium instead, I like when spicy food has a kick to it. The aloo gobi had a lot of sauce which I liked because in other recipes there doesn't seem to be a lot. The lentils were easy to chew and soft. My dad noticed that one fan wasn't on. He said it was hot and I didn't think so. I like the tapestry and banners up for decoration. There were at least 4 other tables filled. There was music playing but it stopped a few times. Then the music started up again after 5 or so minutes.

    Naan, thali, noodles.

    Very flavorful without being too spicy, greasy or salty. Lots of great menu options. I'm looking forward to my next visit and bringing some more people with me. What a gem. I'm happy I stumbled upon the is restaurant. If you like Indian food or Asian food-you won't be disappointed. The sauces for the mono's were perfect. A curry full of flavor. The mango lassi was great too-a lassi shouldn't taste like it came from Jamba Juice. I got the thali and was happy with the selection.

    INSANELY LONG WAIT FOR FOOD. The food was delicious but the insane wait took away from the pleasure of the entire experience. This was Saturday at 7:30ish. Didn't get food until past 8:30. When we first entered the restaurant, it was already pretty chaotic. Several parties just crowded waiting. There is no waitlist so you have to wait in a crammed tiny entry way to try to get the waiters attention to seat you. I was already a bit wary because of that. Then when finally seated in 10-15min, I noticed that there was barely any food on the table. Ordered quickly with the waiter. But the food took over 40 MINUTES to come out...all we got was two entrees, a rice and naan. And things came out in random order. The table next to us had ordered at the same time and all their food seemed to have arrive already. Too bad about the extremely long wait because the food was great. It was a bit salty though. I got the vegetable korma with garlic naan. The naan is more like flatbread and not fluffy. Didn't get a photo since I was starving by then. Service was also nice overall. But no updates on whether our food was coming out - even with obviously looking around and trying to catch their eyes.

    Baigoon Aloo, Tofu Saag and white rice
    Paula F.

    I visited this restaurant for the first time on Christmas 2025 for dinner with 5 others. We arrived at 5:45. The restaurant was somewhat busy. Fortunately, street parking was still available. Others in my party were able to park right across the street from the restaurant. I ended up about a block away. We were immediately seated. The restaurant was moderate in size. The decor was simple yet unique. The vibe was casual, social, relaxed and comfortable with the exception of the unpadded wooden chairs. The menu was extensive with options for everyone. I was very excited about the many vegetarian and vegan options. We ordered the Tandoori Chicken, Mix Platter, Chicken Tiki Masala, Tofu Saag and Baigoon Aloo along with white rice and Naan. The wait for our food was a bit longer than expected, and it came out in random order. The Naan arrived at the end. And we never received one dish that we ordered so we canceled it. The food was seasoned well and delicious. Everyone else in my party seemed to really enjoy the Tandoori Chicken. My favorite dish was the Baigoon Aloo. The Mix Platter was a little bit of a disappointment as there were only two pieces of shrimp in the dish. Service was warm and friendly but a little forgetful. I'm guessing this was because it was Christmas and it was busy. Understandable... Prices were reasonable. I can't wait to return to try some of the other vegetarian dishes.

    A friend brought me in and the food will definitely bring me back. Fabulous!!! Everything from the service, flavor, as well as the charm were everything I could ask for. I hope family establishment such as this can continue to get recognized instead of the copy paste of corporate restaurants.

    Exotic Yak Meat! When I have a craving for Yak Tibet Nepal is one of the few South Asian restaurants where you can get good Yak! Very quaint location, personal service with reasonable prices and great food!

    Some of the food was good, but they were really liberal with the salt on the chicken curry and the non vegetable phing. It was way too salty. Otherwise the seasoning on en pointe.

    Haiku: Tibet Nepal House Get the Lunch Special A variety of foods Generous portions. --- Tibet Nepal House is a cozy spot to enjoy hearty and comforting stews and curries influenced by Indian and Chinese flavors. It is vegan and vegetarian-friendly with plenty of options. We came for the lunch specials and were impressed by the satisfying curries and generous portions. The Chicken Masala (lunch special) was creamy and perfectly spiced. I also enjoyed the accompanying lentil and chickpea dishes. The Okra vegetable curry was fibrous and hard to chew, however, it still tasted good. They should use more tender/young okra, instead of tough, older okra. Service is stellar. He was attentive and incredibly kind.

    Vegetable Thali/ Combo: Choice of Aloo Govi, Chana Masala, Palak Paneer and Tofu Saag; serve with  a vegetable, Lentil , Naan and Rice.
    Cynthia W.

    5 star for ambiance and service. Food is also solid, except, the last time we went, we got the thalis - both with saag, and the saag was pretty salty. The daal and the cauliflower that came with it was really delicious, as was the naan and roti that we got. Got a pot of the chai, which was a nice balance with the food, and kept us up til the wee hours of morn. We'll definitely be back, despite the salt, because as soon as I walked in and was engulfed with the smell of the spices, I felt my body just completely relax and feel warm and happy.

    Paneer tikka and garlic naan
    Kat Y.

    Love after first bite! Food is phenomenal! I got the paneer tikka masala and it was full of rich flavor. The garlic naan was fresh, warm and delicious! The service was also great, every time I come here the servers are so kind and attentive! Love this spot! Highly recommend for a relaxing dinner in Pasadena!

    Which parking structures do they offer free parking? menu says 171 N Raymond Ave (90') and 30 E Union St

    Pasadena recently starting charging for parking, no more 90 minutes free lots that I'm aware.

    Do they have the buffet on the weekends?

    What dishes are included in the lunch buffet?

    I get the (forgive my spelling) pakauda, curry chicken or chicken tikki masala sometimes those two alternate, with rice and a side salad. Oh and the Dahl (lentals) AMAZING.

    How large are the plates?

    We could not finish it all and took enough food away for another meal. Best of all the quality was super.

    Does it have air conditioning?

    I was there about 3 weeks ago and they had A/C.

    What are the hours for lunch buffet on Mon thru Fri? And the cost per person?

    11:30-3p is weekday lunch buffet for $8.99 or $9.99.

    Is this a good place to have a birthday dinner at and also do you need to make resveration if it is?

    Yes good place for birthday dinner. I made reservations for a big party. I don't believe they take reservations for small parties.

Loved the green sauce more, because it was less spicy. 2) Butter Chicken With Garlic Naan: Mmmmmmmm! So good! Bhanu For Thought: Would definitely want to go back to get more butter chicken and samosas.

Normally, I don't meander to this side of Pasadena, but it pays to explore once in awhile. There's street parking, some parking in the back, or if you really need to you can park across the street and walk over. It's pretty busy, even on a weekday at an off hour (between the lunch and dinner rushes). Walking in, despite having 2 floor cooling units, it was SUPER hot and humid. But people were still dining in, so I'm sure they have loyal customers or when the food hankering is that bad, the heat doesn't matter. Most of the food was moved to the back to survive the heat and it seemed like only one person was working at the time, so I had to ring the bell to summon them. Lady was curt, but clear in her explanations of the menu and how long it would take the food to be ready. I got some veggie samosas, but she also recommended that they come with something. I'm not entirely sure what it was, but I agreed since, sure why not. At the end of the day, I couldn't parse through the menu to really get an idea of what it was. Everything was VERY spicy or had a really sour (flavor profile, not that it went bad) taste to it. I enjoy spicy food, but it meant I couldn't really share with my family which sucked. Not that diverse of a flavor profile that I've had at other Indian restaurants before, so that was a bit disappointing. The fried exterior of the samosa was pretty good. The strange mix that came with it was a mix of spicy, sour, and really dry. The sauce that we got was a super tart vinegar kind of grape tasting sauce? Didn't really go great with anything in the order. Maybe what I ordered wasn't the right thing, but my experience was lukewarm at best.
