A Culinary Delight at Everest…read more Located on Old Seward Highway, Everest stands out as a beacon for lovers of Indian cuisine. As soon as you step inside, you're enveloped in an ambiance that exudes warmth and authenticity, accentuated by traditional décor and soothing music. The waitstaff was impeccably dressed, inviting, and friendly. The menu is a delightful journey through India's diverse tapestry of flavors, and a buffet is available during the week. From the moment we took our first bite of the food, the rich spices and freshly grilled notes were simply mesmerizing. The butter chicken was a showcase of culinary mastery -- tender chicken in a creamy, tomato-based sauce that was perfectly balanced. The garlic naan bread was so delicious, we ordered a second basket! For those seeking something unique, the lamb biryani was an absolute revelation. Aromatic basmati rice layered with succulent lamb, enriched with saffron, was the star of the evening. Every dish is crafted with such care that it tells a story of tradition and passion. What truly sets Everest apart, however, is its impeccable service. The staff is welcoming, knowledgeable, and genuinely eager to enhance your dining experience. They guided us through the menu perfectly, offering thoughtful recommendations and ensuring that our glasses were never empty. In a world where dining out is often about convenience, Everest restores the joy of eating out with its exquisite food, charming atmosphere, and attentive service, while still catering to those seeking a quick meal by having a drive through. Whether you're a long-time fan of Indian cuisine or a curious newcomer, a visit to this restaurant will undoubtedly leave you with delightful memories and a yearning for more.

I called in a take out order at 5pm when they opened. I was looking at the menu online. The man on the phone told me "we don't don't do vindaloo anymore" and then read me off a newer version of the menu. I asked where I could look at a newer version of the menu, he told me instagram and...that was the same menu. Eventually I found a different version of the menu on Facebook Folks, update your menu on your website! I was told the food would be ready at 6pm. I got there at 6 and waited another 40+ minutes. I was told my food was "next" and "coming out soon" but I just continued to awkwardly stand there and wait. I get that things can take a while, but I think it'd be helpful to at least offer a seat or a drink if it's going be an additional 40 minutes for take out.

Tonight was my first time having their saag paneer. It wasn't like any other saag I've had before that's reminiscent of creamed spinach, instead it was like a smooth purée with chunks of cheese.

The best places are often tucked away and kind of easy to miss and honestly had another friend, a local who'd gotten married a couple days prior, not recommended this place we'd not have known. Days out: I can remember specifics of what we all got beyond the Samosa Chaat and my veggie pakora, but everything was really tasty. This was the first place in a while too where I felt I could have gone with medium heat. Their mild has 0 spicy heat. Only 4 stars because while everything was excellent, nothing knocked my socks off

They did an impressive job of making all of the food taste authentic, not your typical bistro or fusion master of none style menus. We ordered butter chicken, pho rare steak, basket naan, chicken biryani, and chicken korma. The pho was phenomenal, just like in Vietnam, with an average portion of meat, overall very large portions and great flavor. The butter chicken was soupy and tasty, plenty of chicken, and large enough for anyone to be satisfied. I'm not typically a fan of biryani, but the chicken biryani had the perfect amount of spice, and almost addicting taste and heaping pile of food, enough for 3 meals! I did not like the chicken korma, but my wife loved it - with a unique yet non spicy flavor. The naan basket was also large, with 3 flavors of naan. Overall, the only negative thing was limited parking in the winter, otherwise I will definitely be back!

Starting out dipping veggie Samosas in mint sauce or red sauce( I don't remember the name) was a scrumptious beginning to a tasty meal. Hubby ordered a rice pilaus-chicken biryani. The waitress, who was lovely and informative, had our food seasoned 'just right' for neophyte palates. A cool white sauce cut through the spices. All partnered well with a piping hot cup of milky tea. Music was a fun Indian rap like background with plenty of nice pictures to create an eastern atmosphere. Prices were reasonable and we parked right outside the front door. After sharing a dessert of mango ice cream we were both feeling warm and happy in a food coma. There is an extensive online menu and take out orders seemed popular throughout our visit. . If you're looking for a delicious meal and a place to go on a cold winter's night, head here.

When we mentioned 1 order or rice, server mentioned rice comes with curries which they did mention when we ordered same curries 2 days ago. 2. We ordered Lachcha paratha, what we received was a simple tandoori roti in oval shape. We called it out so they took it back and brought a different tandoori bread, it wasn't lachcha paratha either but we have had it enough as curries were already getting cold. 3. We ordered Onion Salad as well during our 2nd visit, cutting big cubes of onion doesn't make it a salad. Please have your chef watch some recipes of lachcha paratha and onion salad (how to cut onion for salad).
