Great hole in the wall place! Food is delicious and service was nice and super fast. They have plenty of sitting inside and outside. Very budget friendly. Lots of vegetarian options and big portions for a great price! Highly recommend.

I came here because of the high rating and was not disappointed. I was impressed with the flavors and how delicious everything was. Would highly recommend, especially if you are or are with vegetarians/vegans.

Absolutely gem of a place. A hidden part of new york. I would recommend this place over any fancy smancy restaurant in nyc. It's amazing. The food has so much flavor and spicy. The vegetable momos are to die for. The people working here are so sweet and the service is impeccable. I would definitely recommend to a friend. It's not white washed at all and feels totally authentic. Give it a try! You won't be disappointed

We had heard about Cafe Himalaya and decided to give it a try. I was worried that we might have to wait since the place is small and popular. But to our surprise, we were seated quickly without any wait. The restaurant has an authentic feel to it. We started with beef dumplings, which were really tasty. For the main course, I ordered Shapta and my wife had the Gyathuk Ngopa. Both dishes were delicious and not too spicy. I recommend trying the Lassi too, as it helps with the spiciness of the food. Overall, Cafe Himalaya exceeded our expectations, and I highly recommend giving it a visit.

Rare Tibetan food with a very good price. I haven’t tried Tibetan food even I’m a Chinese. The food taste like home cooked. I’d recommend the dumplings, which you can get half beef and half chicken, and the Tibentan tea with butter and salt.

It was incredibly difficult for me to make a choice of what to get because everything sounded amazing! I'm still dreaming about those pan fried potato dumplings. The tofu and vegetable curry with bean thread noodles was phenomenal as was a crispy noodle dish we also got. Beautiful flavors and hearty portions at great prices.
