Was Emily Pirie at Himalayan Cafe a mag?
When we walked into this place, the restaurant smelt amazing and the decor was so lovely. Seating is very cosy and close but also an intimate space which I really liked. My friends and I ordered a vegan entree plate for starters and everything on it was delicious and tasty. We then received our mains and the flavours were really great too. The amount of time food came out was just perfect not too slow and not too qui... View all feedback.

What Hillard Gibson dislikes about Himalayan Cafe:
Haven't visited for many a few years, not the same vibe or atmosphere that I remember. Service was pleasant enough and food arrived quickly although it lacked flavour and although a common complaint it is a noisy room. Having returned I can say it will be a few more years before I return again. View all feedback.

I have been here so many times since I moved to Brisbane 15 years ago. It never disappoints! I took my fiancé for the first time last night. You must start with the homemade bread (pesto is my fave) and dipping sauce. Order starters, because you can pack up any leftovers to take home. My fave mains are #33 Lamb Fhaiya Deakau and #38 Prawn Lawsoon Haleko Bhunjnya. Also, try the potato salad. So yum!!

Incredible food. Charming atmosphere. A perfect place to have a banquet style gathering and share the ample portions of food. If you're vegetarian, they offer a fantastic variety of suitable options. If you're not, be daring and try the goat.

"Lawsoon haleko bhujinya" (#38: prawns with garlic, capsicum, onion, cream, coconut milk, fresh coriander and other herbs) A mouth watering, must-eat dish!!!

The amount of time food came out was just perfect not too slow and not too quick. Was very satisfied with the meal and overall experience! The menu has so many vegan and gluten free options so I highly recommend it if these are things you are looking for in a restaurant. Would definitely go back with a bigger group just so I can try more food!
