Everest Himalayan Cuisine, Encinitas, Downtown 101 Highway CA in Encinitas

Incredible flavors. 10 out of 10 all around. From the soft, aromatic Basmati rice to the perfectly balanced sauce. Burst of herbal flavor within a creamy blended savory sauce that contained a tiny bit of sweet and a wonderful kick of chili. A lot of their dishes are made with premium chicken including what I ordered, Chicken Tikka Masala, spice level 5 ( #31 on the menu).My friend ordered Chicken Tikka #51 ) and was wowed by the juicy, flavorful chicken and veggies.They bring you water right away and treat you with such sincerity.The place was very clean. So was the restroom. The host was genuinely friendly and so was our waiter. The vibe in there was outstanding.With so many entrees and dishes to choose from, we really can’t wait to revisit and enjoy their exquisite flavors.

Tried this place thinking it was related to an Everest restruant in Milpitas, was not, but the food was delicious.Had two lunch specials, was plenty.

Authentically awesome.A very good restaurant that has all the right ingredients. We were met by the owner who was very personable and friendly and clearly has a passion for good food.We felt relaxed and welcomed, and as for the food, it was very good indeed.The lunch specials were really sensible in price and size.The food was really good, great flavours that were rich and diverse.Will be back for sure.

Consistently authentic and delicious Himalayan Nepalese cuisine. Initially recommended to me by Nepalese people, this has been a favorite of ours for a number of years. The spices are amazing and the variety of dishes is huge. The food is always delicious. This is definitely a treat!

Oh the ever going battle of eating the food your brought or going out to eat... My food in the Tupperware just looks at me disappointed EVERY time! ‍‍But I just looooovvveee trying new places! This one is a must! I looked them up on google and Yelp and saw they have a FIVE star rating! FIVE!!! Not many places are consistent like that. Annddd I see why!I ordered the lamb tikka masala, butter chicken, and garlic naan. Everything was just sooo flavorful! I ordered medium spice (which I am always afraid because it might be too spicy ) but I feel like this placed nailed it! It was just the right amount of spice where I was able to enjoy it and taste the abundance of flavoring that each dish offered! The lamb and chicken were cooked to just the right amount of juiciness and was not one bit dry. Some places I feel like the protein doesnt really soak in the flavor of the sauce but this definitely was there! Every bite was just as amazing as the next.

Tasty, authentic spot run by a kind, attentive staff. We spent a month in Nepal a few years ago and found this place so faithful to the cuisine, culture, and kindness we experienced there. Great prices and a big menu have something for everyone. Highly recommended!

Delicious! We love this spot. Great outdoor patio, friendly staff, hot and yummy food. Nice flavors and a big menu!! The lunch special is such a great deal. Wish we would have added this to our routine earlier.

I found this restaurant walking aroundin downtown Encinitas. Theyve been open for 2 weeks, but it will be my go-to restaurant when Im in the area and wanting something different. I had Chicken Tikka Masala with spicy level 8... it was one of the best Ive had. I was sweating like crazy but kept wanting more... its that good. And Shrimp Chili was awesome too... different type of spice and yummy. Check out the size of the shrimp they use! Reasonably priced and good prompt service too! Glad they opened in Encinitas!

Great place, has an authentic vibe. Reminds me of a place I saw on TV about Nepal. I and my dad had went to see the flower garden nearby, and found this place on our way back. The prices are right. The owner Laxman and his employee Papaji are great. The owner is attentive to the customers needs. Papaji is jovial. We were also, offered complimentary tea by the owner. The hot tea or Chiya is very tasty. The restaurant serves alcohol. Would recommend the restaurant for good food at good prices.

Have been here several times. Nice restaurant and plenty of veg options. Malai kofta has been our favorite dish. Lunch deal is good, but food didnt test as good as dinner for whatever reason. Or its because were on the go.
