The Himalayas Restaurant in Aberdeen City

Food was excellent, was only about 5 mins later than expected but well worth it. We will definitely order again

Driver asked for an additional £2 delivery fee at our door (kingswells). this is over and above rhe £5 already paid in the app and theres no mention of this anywhete. Curry was very good.

Such a lovely owner and great food. Done most of the Indian restaurants in the area and this is one of my favourites

Chicken was chewy and did not eat it. Both dishes the same

Excellent food. Excellent service. Reasonably priced too compared with others in the north east. Lamb chill masala is first class

Hubby and I had a lovely meal here. I had a lamb dish. The lamb was slightly tough, but the flavours were good. I was offered another meal but at the end of the day I 😉 it. Hubby had a fish dish and said it was delicious. The bottles of wine are slightly pricey, but everywhere is now a days. We would definitely go back.

Staff was attentive and polite the selection on the menu was very good. Choose the meat Momo not sure about them seemed little warmed over same with the popadums, the dips were good. The special butter chicken was very thick and bland to me it felt like they had used UHT cream, but that is my point of view. While I was there there was a lot of local people welcomed warmly both seating in and carry out. So maybe I mine was not a good choice on the day.

Sensational food and great service. Staff very warm and welcoming. Went twice in one week. Will be book again when next back in Aberdeen

Very friendly & efficient staff serving very good quality food. Small but very well laid out restaurant. Made use of a discount voucher which was only valid for limited menu, next visit will be for full menu as speciality look excellent.

Omg the food here is truly awesome,we came early as we had our son and he can become restless but the amazing staff member handed over his little tablet to our son without any hesitation so he could enjoy playing with it, the food here was absolutely amazing and if we are back up this neck of the woods we will be back. The staff that was on was amazing the food amazing definitely give this place a go for good food.

Thank you so much for the expirience of some 'indian food newbies' the food was fresh done with a lot of herbs and spices, a welcome variety to the two dimentional food in britain.

Two issues (i) the request for £2 extra delivery charge by the driver that was not billed; (ii) the lack of a sauce with my biryani. Been regulars of this restaurant - food is good. This will be the last though due to the extra charges!

One of the best biriyani. Delicious !!!

Eat Indian food a lot back home in Glasgow. This mix with napalese is awesome. We came in on Monday and were blown away, came back Tuesday it was shut, ate here on Wednesday, Thursday. Food is one of the best I’ve tried and wish it was near Glasgow. Brilliant 👌

Brilliant takeaway meal just as good as sitting in. Hot and great quality food

Got a takeaway here for the first time tonight and the food was amazing staff was welcoming and friendly. Would recommend and will be returning.

Small but good restaurant. Great service, friendly staff and delicious food&drinks.

Incredible food and service. The naan was delicious and a good range of mild to spicy dishes. The waiter was very helpful.

The food is delicious! Very nice service. I recommend it with clear conscience :) thank you

Excellent service, great food and kind people. Couldn’t recommend anymore

Great food and fast delivery. Never disappoints. Love the manchurian starter! One of my favourite places for a Sunday night treat. Thanks!!

The service was exceptional and the food was divine. You should dine in at this restaurant.

Amazing Nepalese food. Many items were gluten-free, all items marked for different allergens. Every dish has flavours exploding deliciously in your mouth and there are many to choose from. Service was impeccable, attentive and pleasant manager in charge.

Super! Everything we had was delicious and service is so friendly 👌

Excellent food, 10/10 recommend!

Good food. Unfortunately the wait was too long. Over 60 it was probably Valentine's Day and very busy. However, excellent choice I would say

Great food and great value - our go to takeaway in the Aberdeen area!

The food was still piping hot when I got home and it was very tasty, friendly helpful staff and made sure they gave me the correct order. I would definitely go back. Thanks

Excellent restaurant, amazing food, was a little behind schedule due to it being Jan 1st and being busy but was all explained when I called, Thanks for the fantastic meal guys!

Very promptly delivered and very tasty.

didn't taste that great and every bit of lamb was really chewy and dry, quite expensive compared some other places and know here near as good, smaller nan that most places aswell yet more expensive. won't be back.

The garlic chilli chicken is delicious but the naan could have been better-it was a bit thin and crispy.

Food arrived on time , was tasty . Will certainly order from there again .

Easy and yummy dinner out. My sister, myself and our parents were craving a curry on a Monday night and it ticked all the boxes. Our server was delightful and even through in some humour which we always appreciate. Food was presented beautifully and we all agreed they had the best onion Bhaji’s we’ve ever had. Treated to some Moroccan tea at the end which we also enjoyed. Would really recommend!

Very good quality food from very polite people!

Excellent dishes, tasty and authentic, and excellent value for money. Very friendly waiter and ready to provide explanations on the different dishes. Definitely recommended!

Friendly and helpful owner and fantastic food! If you like Indian and Nepalese food, stop here when you are around!

A wonderful find in Peterculter near Aberdeen. The atmosphere was lovely and the food really delicious!

Lovely quality food which we have extremely enjoyed this evening Will certainly order again Thankyou

What an absolutely lovely restaurant with the friendliest service and delicious food! I ordered takeaway and while there was a short wait while the food was finished and packed, it was no trouble at all--the very polite and kind staff gave me a free cold drink and assured me that my food would be very fresh. It absolutely was, and my order was packed with additional free crispy popadums--so tasty! The veggie momos were plump and mild, with a spicy tomato sauce--this was truly the best momo sauce I have ever had, and I have lived in India near the Nepalese border. The portions of rice and curry were generous, and the paneer butter masala was rich and flavorful. As I waited for my food, I enjoyed the cozy ambiance of the restaurant and the relaxing music playing--not too quiet or loud, just the right volume for guests to enjoy and still be able to chat with each other. If I was staying for more than one night in the area, I would certainly come back and try the dine in experience! The ONLY small change I would make is that, for online orders where someone is paying ahead by card, there should be an option to add a tip online, too. I would have loved to give a tip but I never have cash, and I'm sure others are in the same situation! Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant!

We had a lovely meal here during our stay in Peterculter. We had the Tikka Massala and the Korma, and both were delicious and full of flavour. The poppadoms and chutneys while we waited were lovely and the naan bread was so fresh and tasty. We were served by Dhrubs, who is very pleasant and friendly and chatted to us about some Napalese traditions and some of the musical instruments that are hanging in the restaurant. We would highly recommend The Himalayas if you are anywhere around Aberdeen. Fiona & Kevin visiting from Ireland.

We got takeaway while staying in the area. Sauces where not as flavoursome as expected, rice and naan where good.

Excellent food with a wide choice of dishes. Full.of flavour. Charming service. Tasteful and spotless decor. We' ll definitely be back.again soon.

We went last weekend & were curious as we heard it had changed ownership. It's always had a good reputation, & very busy previously with local customers in Peterculter. The decor is now bright & airy, nice & fresh, the layout has changed, no more booths, it's nicely laid out but gives each table space/privacy. Also really enjoyed the background music, created a lovely atmosphere, very Zen. We were greeted by the new owner Krish who also has 8848 on Union Street, extremely welcoming host, he assisted us with our choice from the new menu & also with Nepalese wine that is best suited to our meal. All staff were very pleasant & service is brilliant, all I can say is WOW!! We had a variety of different dishes, & were keen to try the traditional Nepalese cuisine. We shared the meat platter which came out sizzling with aromas that made your nose & taste buds come alive...the taste was magnificent with accompaniments chutneys, yoghurt dips etc that complimented the meat. Followed by momo/dumplings, butter chicken & monkfish. All the curry sauces were truly mouthwatering. Honestly I've never tasted such beautiful food, all very fresh, full of flavour & spice, & all things nice, but my tongue wasn't set on fire, it was mild/medium "heat" but the vegetables & dips also had a "cooling" effect...we also had the orange sorbet as a dessert whuch really cleansed the palate, everything just worked really well together. Something for everyone's palate/taste. Very clever/knowledgeable chef, who has obviously plenty training & experience. Was lovely to meet him after. Everyone so friendly & obliging. We left very full, but extremely happy, this is now our favourite restaurant, not just locally, but in Aberdeen. We are eager to go back & introduce our friends & family. Thank you so much to Krish & the team at Himalayas, very definitely a lovely night to remember & a place to revisit. We HIGHLY recommend trying this little gem to everyone. GO!! Xx

The best visit to the Himalayas yet. Food was almost gourmet standard, unbelievably tasty and high quality. Most dishes gluten free but packed with flavour which is rare. Well done. Great place for sitting in rather than taking away or home delivery. Service great. We will see you again soon.

We have ordered take out food from here on many occasions and have always been really happy. The food that was delivered last night went uneaten and bore absolutely no resemblance to the favourites that we always order. Also at £12.95 per main dish and £3 for boiled rice plus £3 delivery (about a mile and a half at most) and a service charge for a card payment, it was more like sit-in prices than take- out. Had the food been up to the standard that we are used to, all of that would have been fine but it wasn’t. Won’t be back.

We have ordered takeaway from here twice before and both meals were absolutely delicious. However, after our most recent order two of us ended up with food poisoning and the other two had sore stomachs. Although the food is tasty, I have been put off from ordering here in the future.

So lucky to find this gem across our trip to Aberdeenshire! The buttery chicken was smooth and full of flavour! The lamb was soft and infused with lentil and cardamon! The wine list is extensive, including wines from India! The chef serves you with a mountain of flavour, making it the most tasteful hike of your life!

Very disappointing- we loved this place before it switched owners. Now the menu is not good, most of our favorites are gone. We ordered last night and the dairy free items we ordered were not dairy free and they forgot to deliver one of the breads. A real shame, like I said, we’re regulars. Probably not anymore.

Wonderful meal,excellent waiting staff and very friendly employees.Never been before but will definitely be back. All 4 of us agreed that it is a place we shall visit more regularly.There was not a thing left on our plates,testimony to the chefs. Thank you.

Absolutely amazing. We went to get take away and ended up sitting in due to the friendliness of the staff welcoming us. We let them recommend items to eat. We had the tandoori meat platter and a vegetable curry. The homemade samosa’s for starters were so crispy and delicious. The nan bread was possibly the best I’ve ever had. Everything tasted so fresh and yummy. Staff were very attentive, helpful and kind. Will most definitely visit again.

Just ate there tonight, the staff were extremely polite and welcoming. The food tasted fresh and was really tasty. Would absolutely recommend.

Five star service and five star food. What else do you need

Welcoming 🙏 hospitality by the team ...

Nice medium sized restaurant with really good food. We loved the lamb chop, it was so juicy.

Hands down the best Indian restaurant/takeaway that I've been to in the UK. Cant recommend The Himalayas enough. Authentic and delicious food, amazing staff and a very reasonably priced menu. Have ordered from here nearly every week for the past 6 months and these guys have never failed me.

Had a meal here on Wednesday. A few people in already. Owner from Nepal and quite chatty. Food really good, momos great, lamb biriani and lamb garlic and chilli very tasty. Nan bread good too. Can't fault it.

Very disappointing takeaway. One pappadum in a serve and it was soft. Vegetable Pakora was okay but nothing special. Garlic Nan was dry and tasteless. Bhuna chicken was bland and tasteless.

Lovely food, friendly staff. Stayed open late to serve us as we had called ahead which was really nice!

Visiting Aberdeen for the weekend and stumbled across this gem of a restaurant! Fabulous food and service, I highly recommend!

Hello travellers,friends and family five stars isnt enough for the quality of the food being served at the Himalaya in the village of Peterculter step inside and await the true taste of Nepal!

Quality authentic food. Just wow. I'd recommend anyone to go

Excellent quality food, freshly cooked to order and good service,... Very friendly staff

Friendly service and great food. 👍

Would definitely recommend this restaurant, food and service very good.

It was my first experience with Nepalese food but it was amazing. Himalayas is a small restaurant, not noisy, with soft music in background where you can have excellent food; the service was fast and efficient.

Ordered a takeout, we were not disappointed! Gorgeous, fresh food. Naan bread is divine!

Great food, extremely friendly and hospitable staff. A hidden diamond in Aberdeen!

First time here today and was definitely not disappointed, our food was freshly cooked and to a very high standard would definitely recommend a visit, The restaurant is very clean and staff very friendly
