    We stopped by for the buffet lunch after visiting the NASA Space Center. There was a wide variety of chicken and vegetable dishes, along with naan and rice. The food was okay — nothing exceptional, but decent overall. The restaurant was clean, and the staff were friendly and attentive. Really liked the rice pudding.

    Lunch buffet. Cozy restaurant, seems like other reviewers complain about the decor, stating it is aged, distressed etc., but I see this differently…it’s cute, cozy in and old-school way. I felt at home. The service was excellent, they brought me naan, took my plates when they were empty, refilled my water etc. The staff was friendly, polite and welcoming. The food was great. I’ve had the privilege of working in India for nearly 2 months, and I think this restaurant well represents the style. The variety of dishes is very wide, and I thought they were all very good. I loved the fish curry, creamy cheese spinach (palaak paneer), tandoori chicken. Their salads were very nice and well presented. Overall this is a great restaurant with tasty Indian food and a friendly staff, no complaints, highly recommended, and look forward to going back again. This restaurant is a gem, and I feel lucky to have it near my work! Mujhe yei pasanda hei, tamhara kana swadish hei! 😁👍

    We visited Himalayan Taj Restaurant and were truly impressed! The food was amazing—especially the momos, which were absolutely delicious. Every dish we tried was full of flavor, and even our kids loved it. A must-visit spot if you’re in the NASA Houston area. Highly recommended!

    We’ve been coming to Himalayan Taj for 3 years now. Food is always great. We’ve always come for dinner service but have not yet tried the lunch buffet. Service has been hit or miss, but overall ok. The food though has always been excellent.
