Himalayan Kitchen - Santa Barbara

Extremely reasonably priced Himalayan restaurant with lots of vegan vegetarian options. The food was excellent, fresh and full of flavour. The service was attentive and courteous. Loved the tofu chilli and it went very well with the delicious fried rice. Lastly we over indulgenced and ordered the Alu Paratha, which was cooked to perfection. The Alu filling masala was evenly distributed in the dough and cooked crisp to perfection. The achar they served with was fantastic. Just loved the food and their portion sizes are large enough for 2 people. Lovely place if craving some delicious Himalayan and Indian food.

The food was enjoyable, but the main downside was that the restaurant uses the same tandoori chicken for all of their chicken dishes. However, the goat dish was exceptional.

The atmosphere is lively and matches the vibe of the restaurant. The prices are reasonable, usually around $15-20. The noodles I ordered were quite flavorful. In general, a good Himalayan restaurant.

We ordered a few varieties of food Thali, Sekuwa, momo, and biryani. For someone growing up eating all this food, I must say the food here is surreal. I really love the environment, cleanliness, and hospitality. If you want to try the authentic food and experience authentic taste this is the place.

Was in town on a visit and happened to end up here on State Street. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. The table were laid out with social distancing norms. We loved the food especially the Himalayan Thukpa, Noodles and mixed grill platter. The biriyani had generous spices (not hot) to the level it didn't blend with the flavours and you could feel the spices. The two people handling the customers were two very efficient women and we liked the service in general. Would highly recommend if you are looking for South asian food.
