Himalaya Restaurant - Vancouver, British Columbia

Believe me, it is the worst restaurant I have ever been to in entire Greater Vancouver. Worst customer service. There was a girl (wearing glasses) who was I guess working as a waitress. She didn't have that manner when she offer glasses of water, have to be kept on the table ... near the customer, rather she put on one edge of the table and left where it was difficult for us to grab the water. We had to get off from our seat and get the water. No smile while talking and no enthusiastic to work. Seems like she doesn't care about the work in this bad job market. Believe me, Food quality was bad. We ordered Chhole Bhature, which we all expect to be damn best. But as like customer service it was bad too. The curry that was used in it was pale in taste on one spoon and too much masala in another spoon. So the curry was not blend or cooked properly or evenly. Still after 2 days, my stomach is not good. Recommendations:- You can do good. Like your Sweets, you can make other menu tasty as well but I don't why you don't choose to do that. I won't say, I would not go there in the future, but I would definitely look for option before choosing that place. This restaurant would be my last choice in Main Street. Read more

I'm a regular and I always get food and samosas from here. What happened today is a repeat occurrence. I ordered a take out and while the kitchen is efficient at what they do, the older guy at the front desk (likely shop owner) either hates me or has a ... sour mood in general every time. I usually check the samosas when I buy them but I ordered earlier this time over the phone and he purposely put in the worst burnt samosas off the pile and double wrapped it so I couldn't check during pickup. It's sadly a good kitchen with decent food, but the experience gets ruined every time because of the guy at the front desk. I'm going to any other shop in Punjabi market now onwards, done with that guy. Read more

This is a big and looks nice restaurant from outside. We were passing by and went to the restaurant to buy some sweets. No greetings from the staff. We requested help to get some sweets. But they didn’t pay any attention to us. Finally we got their attention. She said ... “here is spoon and tray; sweets are there, boxes are there, go and grab the sweets you like “. We were very surprised to hear this. Very poor customer service. But we grabbed sweet and paid. Sweets are not that delicious either. I don’t recommend this restaurant for the poor customer service.

I have been going to this restaurant since the 1980s. The food in this place is authentic, always made fresh, and consistently good. They make the best Punjabi sweets anywhere. It has a real family-operated place vibe.

This was a pleasant and welcome surprised. We had horrible experience with another Indian restaurant via Doordash. We asked the cab driver what he recommended and he suggested this place. Wonderful staff. Food was very good. There is buffet option. We opted to order from the menu. ... Lots of snacks and sweet choices. There were other Indians eating there so that was key signal that it was authentic and not watered down for Western taste. It is on the Main street with #3 bus that took us near the hotel was a bonus. Bus run frequently here which was awesome. Read more
