We came to the restaurant to celebrate my Mom's Birthday. The staff are so welcoming and attentive. The restaurant ambience is amazing and the decorated beautifully. The food was delicious and if you like spicy, ask for their home made hot sauce!! Use it sparingly...it's HOT and flavorful! They brought out dessert for my mom's birthday and sang for her with a traditional gong as well! Great experience and will be returning soon!! Thank you to everyone who made my mom's birthday even more special!!
We celebrated a family birthday here, a wonderful Nepalese cuisine restaurant. The decor and bar area are beautiful, and the menu is fantastic. Thereβs something for everyone, and we highly recommend their curries and Himalayan naan. They celebrated our birthday complete with a traditional gong and mask ceremony. Everyone who works there is welcoming and professional. An excellent date spot, or fun dinner outing with friends!
Great food, very friendly and hospitable service, and great live music! All appetizers and entrees were wonderful. Drinks were also good. Plenty of options on the menu. We definitely want to come back and try more!
We found this great place @himalaya_sono, near our hotel in South Norwalk, CT. Turns out they had just recently opened. But you wouldn't know it because everything--the space, the food, the service, the vibe--was excellent. Everyone was friendly. The design and decor of the place are very tasteful and well executed. We particularly liked the paintings done by Buddhist monks and the TVs over the bar showing gorgeous scenes of Nepal, which we added to our bucket list by the end of dinner. π³π΅ The place overall just has a really good vibe. They have a separate vegan menu upon request, which I always really appreciate. There's a gluten free one too, if you need that. There were plenty of vegan options. We got the chana masala and some vegetables, both of which were very good. The food tasted very fresh and natural. If you're sensitive to spicy food, err on the side of caution with your spice level. We like spicy food but even level 5 was pretty spicy for us (but we liked it). They also have live music several nights a week. It's something different each night and all looked interesting. It was quite good the night we were there. Dinner and music makes for a nice outing! There's also a full bar if you want to keep hanging out. It looks like there will be a patio in summer too. Finally, there's a little store at the front with some really nice items from Nepal. It sounds like it's better to check that out during the day, but it's definitely worth a look. Overall, this was one of the best executed concepts I've seen in a while, and I think probably the nicest Himalayan or Indian restaurant I've ever been to. I can't even fully explain why, we just really liked it! Will be back for sure anytime we're in the area. And if you're in the area, definitely check it out! You won't regret it and you might find yourself planning a trip to Nepal!
Himalaya in SONO Norwalk is an excellent new restaurant. Number 1 the atmosphere is absolutely welcoming and beautifully decorated. The food was outstanding and the live music was set to the culture and was truly exquisite. We highly recommend it!
Such a cool and gorgeous place inside. They had live acoustic music which was so relaxing and added to the environment. Food was outstanding! The wait staff helped us pick options to try too. I could not recommend this place more!
We stopped by for dinner tonight on their first night open!! A lot of thought and effort has been put into bringing this place to life. We found live music, good food, and attentive hosts here. We haven't been to any other location, but are excited they opened one up in Norwalk. Looking forward to going back again to try other things on their menu. The food has decent flavor and unique taste. Did not all taste the same- appreciative of that!
