Himalayan Kitchen

This was a fantastic little spot! I was visiting Boston with some friends and was recommended this restaurant because some of its Nepalese dishes It has a very small dining area but still remains inviting and spacious. We were immediately greeted by the owner who sat us quickly while being very excited to see new faces. We all ordered something different since this type of food is able to be shared with the table. Also side note, i'm generally pretty good when it comes to spicy levels but when the owner says its spicy, heed the warning! Everything was delicious and cooked quickly so we didn't wait very long. To get to the bathroom you must walk through the kitchen to get to the bathroom in the back (the bathroom is tiny). Along the way you're greeted by the kitchen staff and you almost feel like you're one of the family! Overall this was a very very nice experience to have before our Jonathan Van Ness comedy show! Would definitely come back and 100% recommend! Happy eating!

What an awesome experience. The owner Jay was so welcoming and warm and the food was absolutely delicious! I was dealing with stomach issues so couldn’t eat all the authentic Nepali food but I’ll definitely be back for more when I’m fully recovered. There Momos are so good! Some of the best dumplings I’ve had and the way they cook their meats is absolutely amazing. The coconut rice dessert was a great way for us to close out. Definitely recommend for the hospitality and food. This is the type of restaurant that neighborhoods are built on!

The second we walked we were greeted with such a smile, high energy and cheerfulness. Jay asked us if we had been there before and helped guide through the menu with excellent recommendations. We felt so taken care of and the food was outstanding. There are endless options. Jay really made our day with his passionate personality and genuine kindness. We highly recommend visiting Himalayan Kitchen in Somerville. We can’t wait to go back.

If you’re thinking about eating here, DO IT! It’s not a fancy sit down place, but the quality of food is to die for. Perfectly spiced, fresh and clean. We got the chicken momo (dumplings), chicken tiki masala, shrimp and naan. The naan is also some of the best I’ve ever had. Thank you for the wonderful meal!
