Food: Sensible yet limited menu

A neutral culinary journey awaits those who dare to explore the dishes of Himalayan Cafe. The Tandoori Chicken sizzles with both heat and flavor, while the creamy Eggplant Curry and zesty Lamb Vindaloo display a melange of pleasing tastes. It's like playing food roulette; some offerings expose their culinary creativity and freshness more than others. However, bear in mind the portions may not match the appetite, for some found them wee bit on the smaller side.

  • Okay Quality

    Quality varies; some dishes fresh and well-prepared, others unremarkable or bland.

Vibe: Dimly lit and aged

Rustic might be a more gracious term for its slightly dark, albeit cozy atmosphere. Close-quartered tables and poor lighting do not make it an ideal date night spot. Their wine selection is as basic as learning ABCs, and the beer options are disappointingly few. The interior could use a revamp to conjure some trendiness, unless outdated and tacky is the new hip.

  • Okay Ambiance

    Ambiance is cozy and intimate, though slightly dark; overall pleasant.

  • Bad For Dates

    Lack of privacy due to close tables; too dark with poor lighting.

Perks: Satisfactory service to expect

The neutral perspective on the service is that it operates on a spectrum - from attentive and friendly to a more lackadaisical tempo. Parking won't be an issue, freeing up time to savor their extensive vegetarian options. It may not be an ideal setting for larger gatherings, but for dog owners, your canine companions are welcome to join the dining experience.

  • Great For Diets

    Extensive vegetarian options, vegan-friendly, accommodating substitutions.

  • Okay Service

    Comments on service vary from friendly and attentive to slow and inattentive.

  • Bad For Groups

    Not a good place for big groups, unable to accommodate comfortably.
