Himalaya Indian Restaurant: A Taste Of The Mountains

Indian food in America can be a tossup—too many places serve heavy curries that weigh you down and make you feel logy and listless. Newark’s Himalaya departs from the norm, offering delicious home style Indian food that reflects the cuisine of both the North and the South of that culturally rich country. The food is fresh and perfectly spiced, incorporating a wide variety of spices and flavors. Locals rave over the biryanis, a type of rice casserole that includes meats and sauce sandwiched between layers of fragrant jasmine rice. Samosas and pakoras are delicately fried and utterly delicious. The ambience leaves something to be desired, taking up the corner lot of a strip mall, but the service is friendly and professional, with waiters more than willing to advise you on the fairly extensive menu. They will ask how spicy you want your dishes, and be warned—when they say very spicy, they mean business.
