As soon as I walked in I was greeted by Prakash who offered me wine while I waited for my seat and asked me to make myself at home. The dal makhani was delicious. Would HIGHLY recommend this restaurant for vegetarians! The service was maybe the best I've received anywhere. Wait staff were all super nice and food came out quickly. To top it all off the restaurant had a great view!

Always extremely welcoming - fantastic service! Food is always delicious, would definitely recommend!!

Had a brilliant meal at the Himalayan restaurant—what a find! We started with Cobra beers and some poppadoms with chutneys, which were a great opener. The Nepalese momo were a real treat full of flavour and really well made. We also had the Himalayan curry and daal bhat masu with garlic naan, and everything was packed with depth and spice without being overpowering. Proper comfort food done right. The place has a lovely, relaxed vibe and the food feels genuinely authentic. It’s one of those hidden gems you almost don’t want to tell everyone about but it’s too good not to. We’ll definitely be back.

Had such a lovely meal here to celebrate our friend coming back from Spain. The food was so delicious and the service impeccable. We felt so looked after, haven't had such a nice time in years. Would highly recommend and will be back.

Amazing meal here, Prakash was the perfect host, so welcoming and friendly. Took the time to talk us through the menu choices and explain all the gluten free options for my wife. Food was out of this world and I would recommend a visit to the Himalayan without hesitation. To make it even better the value was terrific - five stars all the way.

Himalayan is a Nepalese restaurant on Botanic avenue. The menu is large with a good mix between classic Indian dishes and Nepalese cuisine. I was impressed to see such a good range of plant-based options on the menu. I tried the Vegan Nepalese special plate which comes with a delicious daal style dish; stew like curry with rice and roti. I loved the flavours and the variety in the dish. The service was fantastic with great advice on what we should order as well as great welcoming energy. Some of the best service I have seen in Belfast. I would definitely advise trying Himalayan
