“ What an amazing lunch special deal with very generous portion size! And the lunch special is offered DAILY. It is $14.95 for 2 items (see photo), rice, naan, chickpea salad, and dessert. I am definitely returning again in the future for lunch special, but the food is good enough to eat as regular entrees at other hours. -Lamb Samosa: Very generous portion of ground lamb but WAY too salty for me. I had to douse in the sauces (One was a sweet sauce, and the other was an herbaceous green sauce). In the future, I will try the vegetarian samosa. -Chicken Tikka masala: The sauce was creamy and flavorful with generous chunks of chicken. Definitely recommend. -Chicken vindaloo: Mix of flavorful chicken thigh (I think. The meat was way more tender than I would expect for breast) and potato in a spicy sauce. I generally don't like spicy food, but this was just the right amount of heat to warm my innards on a cold day. I did have to blow my nose several times though. Definitely would recommend for both spicy food eaters and non-eaters. There was a generous heaping of basmati rice. I actually took most of one platter's rice home. The naan was warm and fresh (I really want to try their cheese naan one day though). I didn't eat the included rice pudding dessert; it tasted to sweet to me & I don't particularly enjoy the flavor of cardamon. Service was quick. Ambience was quiet. The restaurant feels well-ventilated, maybe even chilly so I wore my jacket. Good thing I also had the chicken vindaloo to warm me up. Parking was okay for weekend lunch. It is a pretty busy lot, and many people don't seem to understand what the lines mean. But there were plenty of 60min spots available. I liked the bathroom situation. There is a hand washing station outside the single occupancy bathroom. The bathroom has automated flushing toilet & there is a trash can where you can throw away the paper towels after you touch the door knob to exit. ”

“ The food here is pretty great. I've tried the chicken tikka masala and the butter chicken and both dishes were seasoned to perfection, despite me ordering takeout from them. The rice always comes out cooked well -- never too hard or too mushy. Additionally, the garlic butter naan is a MUST. They're doing everything correctly and should be proud. The workers are friendly and efficient, food is delicious, yet affordable. Next time, I will have to dine in and see how the atmosphere and vibe of the restaurant feel for myself. ”

“ Just wow !! Husband randomly started craving Momo's and I remembered that this place was supposed to have good Momos. So 25 minutes later and we had picked up our Chicken Momo to go order. Really really massive serving size here. There were 10 Momos and each of them was so so large. Very good amount of chicken filling (the ratio of filling to wrapper was perfect) and the best part is that chicken was actually flavorful! The Momos were so good. I didn't even use any sauce! Definitely need to go again to try some more stuff. ”

“ Been to this place countless times and it always hits the spot. Our go-to whenever we're craving Indian Nepalese cuisine. I believe anything on the menu would be delicious. I always find myself ordering the Paneer Tika Masala. So yummy. The garlic naan is great and so are the Vegetable Samosas. You get a little pre-meal soup as well. Always warm and inviting and the service is efficient. They seat you right away. I absolutely recommend this place to anyone in the area. ”

“ Have ordered ten times from here for takeout only. Have not eaten there but ambiance seems chill and servers are always relatively friendly even for take out. Their food is always consistent. My mother-in-law hates chicken but for some reason will always be down to eat chicken here. Their garlic naan is phenomenal. We order here at least once every few weeks and the portions are good. ”

“ Came here for lunch with a friend who said it was his favorite local place for Indian fare. It was a work day lunch hour so not very busy which suited us fine but their lunch special was pretty impressive. Two choices of a main dish, rice, a mini salad, naan and a small dessert serving. The food was up fast and was very good and I had a mango lassi to boot so I was quite pleased. It's a quiet place tucked in a Trader Joe's shopping strip with nice staff and a chill vibe. It's not fancy but it's tasty, with good portions and a great deal which is all I require! ”

“ My favorite Indian food in San Diego. Love them so much they catered my wedding! The food is rich, spicy (as per request) and the perfect combination of comforting home cooked Indian food and rich restaurant style dishes. Everything I've tried here over the years is great - any dish with paneer is a personal favorite. In terms of portions, they aren't what it used to be (likely due to inflation). The restaurant vibe is comfortable and casual. Another plus is that it's located within a shopping complex making parking easy to find. Highly recommend! ”

“ First time here. Portions are substantial. Lunch specials looked good but we went for appetizers, entrees and beer. Free dessert with check in I had the Shrimp Vindallo #4 spicy. Easy to take heat. The ladies ordered Lamb Saag and Chicken Briyani #3 medium heat. All were delicious and portions were plentiful. Enough for another meal. ”

“ As a foodie and cook, I'm always in search of good restaurants in San Diego especially, Indian and Nepali cuisine. This was my first time dining at Himalayan Grill at the Scripps Ranch location and the food was outstanding!! I was first introduced to Indian/Nepali cuisine in 2023 and fell in love with this type of food!! Our group ordered the following: -Butter chicken -Paneer chili -Chicken Tikka Masala -Lamb Vindaloo -Butter Naan You will be asked the spice level you want for your dish from 1-5. I recommend 3 because if you order any higher than that, it's like eating at habanero level unless you want your food that spicy go for it! The food was so good I'm willing to drive 20 miles north to dine at this restaurant again!! The restaurant was clean and the service was good. There's only indoor seating and you get a free dessert when you check in on Yelp. Give it a try! Happy Yelping :) ”
