Himalayan is on top of the small Indian cuisine scene here in our mountain town of Flagstaff. Featuring the style of not only India, but those of Nepal and Tibet, Himalayan Grill offers an exotic sampling of tasty foods you will love.
I was not familiar with food from Nepal and Tibet, but can say now I am a fan. For the more timid, start by trying out Himalayan at their popular lunch or Sunday brunch buffets.
Himalayan offers a varied array of items from their extensive menu for the buffet such as chicken or lamb curry, a selection of appetizers, samosas, vegetable sides, naan, tandoori chicken, desserts and fruit and more.
Dinner is menu orders only, but there are so many choices, you could eat here many nights and never get bored. As most Indian restaurants do, Himalayan serves up a large selection of vegetarian entrees. The food is fresh tasting and seemingly healthy. The many flavors of naan (Indian flat bread) are house made and have that griddled taste.
Himalayan features a range of refreshing Indian beers as well as standard wines and a full bar. They do cater parties as well and that would make a party something out of the ordinary.
I should note that while they are housed in a stripmall at a busy intersection, inside is a respite from the bustle outside. Attractively decorated and comfortable, Himalayan will make you feel at ease.
Prices are very reasonable for the amount of healthy, quality food you are given. Service is amicable and fine.
The Himalayan Grill is a hidden gem in Flagstaff. Here’s to being at the top.
