"Since 2004, chef/owner Dr. Devi Gurung States and his wife/co-owner, Connie States have been expertly preparing the distinct cuisines of Nepal, Korea and India in a single restaurant. It’s a culinary expedition for taste buds. To journey to the peak of deliciousness, visit the restaurant for a quick-as-can-be buffet lunch, or take the more leisurely but equally rewarding route that is their table-service dinner. No passport, climbing experience or supplemental oxygen required." - Manifest

Chap Chae (got our w/tofu) had the best sauce I've ever had on it. Beautifully restrained but flavorful dish. Everything felt warm and comforting yet fresh. You can tell they pay attention to the quality of the ingredients. We ran into 3 Nepalese exchange students who had been looking for some authentic food from home and they told us this was the first time they tried Everest and that it was the most authentic they'd had in the U.S. since they have been here. Awesome experience and we will hopefully be back!

If you want something tasty AND healthy this is a safe bet. We came here because my girlfriend is Korean and this restaurant boasts a Nepalese/Korean fusion menu. Nothing like we’ve ever seen. I ordered something similar to chicken tikka kebab which is what I always get when I’m anywhere in this neighborhood of cuisine. The dish I received was not what I was expecting but the chicken was very flavorful and juicy for what it was. You can very clearly tell the establishment focuses heavily on low fat and low sodium to be as healthy as possible. This makes perfect sense when you find out one of the owners is a doctor with multiple degrees relevant to such pursuits. 8.1/10 Clucks Very friendly staff. Would strongly recommend for a wholesome, guilt-free meal.

Absolutely delicious lunch buffet. We all were stuffed. My international friend from India said this was one of the best Indian food they’ve had outside of India!

most of the food was okay. Rice was not fully cooked in the rice puddy. Chicken curry was labelled as goat curry. Price was reasonable though.

Went there for Sunday Lunch. They had buffet. Good Ambience and Service but food was not authentic. They do have a big menu (veg and non veg) for buffet but very few Vegan option. Cauliflower was uncooked (almost raw). The only thing I liked was Dal (lentil soup) and Rice.

I really do see the potential in this place, but based on my experience I’d have to give it 3 stars. I tried to dine here on three separate occasions, and only found them to be open once. When I finally came in, I was told that they’re only offering the buffet - no ordering off the menu. That was fine with me, but it can be limiting to some. My main issue was that all of the food was either luke warm or cool. The meats, the curries, the veggies, etc. I assume (and hope) it was pre-cooked, refrigerated, and then reheated, but not to the proper temp, instead of being cooked fresh. Or it was cooked fresh and the steamers weren’t hot enough to keep the food warm or hot. Either way, that’s a risk for food borne illness and sickness.

One of the best Indian restaurants in town. I typically go for the lunch buffet and they have a great assortment of authentic items (mean and vegetarian), would be somewhat standard but the flavor of everything and how it is cooked is very very good! Friendly service and in a great location as welling being in the middle of the grove. Can walk to breweries, bars, parks, and hang out spots near by.
