Himalayan Cuisine SF

The food is super authentic and delicious. Usually I used to order online from DoorDash but today decided to dine in. Hot Masala tea after thali was beyond my expectations. Taste made me to remember my mom back in Nepal. Thank you for the complementary Chiya(tea). Will definitely come back and will recommend my friends and family.

My husband and I walked into this restaurant with no booking. We were warmly greeted and welcomed in. Everything on the menu sounded delicious but sadly with only two tummies we could not consume everything. With some guidance we ordered the Himalayan lamb thali - medium spicy, Jhol momo chicken - medium spicy and mango lassi. Everything and i mean everything was incredible. What added to the experience was the service and care provided by every staff. They were so attentive. One waiter overheard our conversation of wanting to order the ras malai. A few moments later he appeared with a small serve of ras malai, on the house, as he realised, we were served gulab jamun instead, with our thali. Affordable pricing with a 5 star experience. A must visit. 👌 P.s. photos don't do justice and I missed some.

I had the vegetable thali and a mango lassi. The food was delicious, only problem was my stomach wasnt big enough for all of it! I recommend the thali plates for sure as they give you a sample of different dishes. There are also flatbreads and sauces given when you sit down before your food comes out. The staff were very friendly and kind and the interior is really lovely, with beautiful paintings on the walls. Definitely worth checking out!

I recently had my first dining experience at Himalayan Cuisine SF, and I’m already planning my next visit. From the moment I walked in, the warm and friendly atmosphere made me feel welcome, setting the tone for a truly memorable meal. The food was absolutely flavorful — each and every bite bursting with authentic spices and rich, comforting taste. There’s a wide variety of dishes to choose from, making it easy for anyone to find something they’ll love, whether you're a meat lover or prefer vegetarian options. I especially appreciated how affordable everything was, considering the generous portions and high quality of ingredients. What really stood out was how deeply the experience immersed me in Nepali culture — from the traditional decor to the thoughtfully crafted menu. This is more than just a meal; it’s a cultural experience that transports you straight to the Himalayas. The service was excellent, too. The staff was kind, attentive, and eager to explain dishes to a first-timer like me. If you’re in San Francisco and want a delicious, authentic, and affordable culinary adventure, Himalayan Cuisine SF is a must-do. Thanks to Bishow for taking us to the Himalayan Cuisine.

First of all, service was excellent- welcoming, friendly, and attentive at all times. Our water glasses were always being topped off even if they weren’t empty. Only not rating 5 stars because our dishes were too spicy for us and I didn’t get to try the dishes at a level of spice where I could really appreciate the meal. Now we know that if we come back, we’ll get “mild” instead of “medium” spice here. We can handle a fair bit of spice and thought we could do “medium” and we did but our noses were running a bit and my friend didn’t eat as much as she normally would for dinner. My veggie paneer dish was actually fine at medium spice but I think if I chose mild, I could’ve tasted more flavor vs spice and that would’ve been more enjoyable for me.
