Himalayan Cafe - Pasadena

Very bad experience. We ordered 3 separate dishes (Veg Soup, Chicken Thukpa and Mix Veg Entree) for carry out but got served with same item in 3 different containers. Chicken Thukpa did not have any chicken in it. Not recommended at all.

Absolutely delicious! I got lamb vindaloo and it was cooked to perfection. Not too spicy, and SO savory! The waiter was nice and engaging. Got to meet the owner who was very kind. Love the decor and especially the blue wall paint. Will be coming again.

The staff was quite unfriendly, and I felt like I was a nuisance throughout my visit. While the restaurant's decor is lovely, the cleanliness leaves something to be desired. I recommend trying the naans and momos, which were both very tasty. However, I would advise against ordering the curry or biryani, as they don't serve what is listed on the menu.

We have been visiting this restaurant for years, but our last two experiences were disappointing. The food lacked any flavor. Like many others, we noticed that prices have increased while portion sizes have decreased. The Mango Lassi, which used to be served in a regular-sized cup, now comes in a smaller, child-sized cup but at a higher price. Mint Leaf offers a much better experience at the same price.

The momos were fantastic! The service was excellent too. The only downside was that the so-called "spicy" food wasn’t spicy at all, but everything else was wonderful!
