One of the big things i look for in restaurants, is the atmosphere and service in the place. I think it really helps create a good time, no matter how the food is. But this place certainly delivered on all aspects. Its a smaller restaurant, but has ample room in the front and back of the restaurant. Really "cultured" decorations... More

The food is excellent and is above average for the type of food, There is plenty of it and one could almost wish for a "doggy bag" to have for lunch the next day. We enjoy the goat dishes and always have at least one of these in the selection for the table. The staff are friendly and the service... More

great food and great tastes. I highly recommend the Prawn Himalayan Bhujiniya - the flavours that are in that dish are to die for.

I like this place a lot. Staff are always friendly. A good selection of dishes. Very different from your average curry meal.

Even on this busy night they managed a table for one without a hitch. The staff was very friendly. Ordered the goat which was very tender. Best meal since I have come to Australia. In short, great food, nice staff, great atmosphere and nicely decoration of the place. Very authentic !

Been here so many times - food never disappoints. If you are in a smaller group, I recommend asking for a seat out the back, it is very cosy :)

I'd heard about the Himalayan Cafe before, but recently had my first experience there with a group for a friend's birthday. Sitting in a long bench seat outside, we enjoyed a great night - the restaurant is very well themed (the profile photo doesn't do it justice), and the food is unbelievably good. Being a BYO restaurant meant we could... More

I went here with a group of people. We had pre-organised platters with a selection of food. We were seated in the back of the restaurant where there are no chairs. There is a low table and padded cushions for seating. Needless to say, the only thing I remembered from the night was how uncomfortable I was. From what little... More
