About Himalayan Indian & Nepalese Restaurant

This Hastings mainstay pairs authentic Himalayan flavours with multi-generational warmth right on the Mornington Peninsula. Tables fill quickly with family banquets and curious eaters diving between traditional Nepalese momos and fragrant tandoori curries. The floor hums with three generations of family hosts, and kitchen staff step out regularly to chat tableside. Diners managing coeliac requirements get careful guidance and dedicated prep across a menu dominated by naturally gluten-free plates. Order the garlic tawa lamb, hot wholemeal roti, and finish with pistachio kulfi.

  • Dual Himalayan & Indian Menu: Traditional Nepalese dumplings and curries share space with tandoor-baked breads and classic Indian staples.
  • Family-Led Floor Presence: Multi-generational owners and chefs regularly check in tableside, creating an easy family atmosphere.

  • Personal Tableside Care from the Owners

    The owners and chef regularly visit tables on the floor to converse with guests and personally ensure every meal is enjoyed.

    My favourite bit about coming here is the family environment and how the chef comes out and ask personally how was the meal was.

  • Dedicated Coeliac Awareness and Gluten-Free Choices

    Staff possess thorough knowledge of coeliac disease and food preparation, guiding diners with clear gluten-free adaptations across naturally gluten-free bases.

    They understood about coeliac disease and what a coeliac customer could and could not be served. Lots of gluten free options.

    Service was great - very attentive and offering extra serves of each course. They were also very happy to split the bill.
