Himalayan cafe SAN DIMAS Nepali/Indian test in town

10/12/2026

You can taste the difference between a meal that's simply prepared and one that's been perfected through generations. 🍛

The depth of a carefully seasoned curry. The aroma of spices warming in the kitchen. Fresh naan ready to tear into, and recipes that carry a little piece of home in every serving.

At Himalayan Café, we're a small, family-owned restaurant bringing the rich culinary traditions of India and the Himalayas to our Southern California communities.

For us, cooking is a craft. It's knowing when to add a spice, how long to let flavors develop, and why some recipes deserve to be preserved rather than reinvented.

And the best part? You don't have to travel halfway around the world to experience them.

Come discover handcrafted flavors, traditional favorites, and a local family kitchen worth getting to know.

Some recipes are too good to leave behind. 🍛

At Himalayan Café, we're a small, family-owned restaurant sharing the flavors, traditions, and handcrafted recipes that have brought families together for generations.

We believe good food takes care. From the careful balance of spices in a rich curry to fresh naan, fragrant rice, and traditional Himalayan favorites, every dish reflects the craftsmanship behind the cuisine.

Because a recipe is more than a list of ingredients. It's an understanding of how flavors develop, how spices complement one another, and how generations of culinary knowledge find their way onto a single plate.

We're proud to bring these traditions to our neighbors in Pasadena and San Dimas. Whether you're discovering Indian and Himalayan cuisine for the first time or returning for a favorite, there's always something worth exploring.

When was the last time you sat down to a really good Indian dinner?

Not something rushed between errands or eaten on the way home, but a meal worth sitting down for. Warm naan fresh from the kitchen, fragrant basmati rice, rich curries, and traditional dishes prepared with the spices and flavors that make Indian food so memorable.

At Himalayan Café, we're proud to be a local, family-owned restaurant bringing the flavors of Indian and Nepali cuisine to our Southern California communities.

Indian food has a remarkable way of bringing people together. The dishes are often meant to be enjoyed alongside one another, with different flavors, textures, and spices complementing each bite. A little naan to scoop up your favorite curry, a spoonful of rice to balance the richness, and perhaps a plate of freshly steamed momos to share across the table.

It's the kind of dinner that encourages you to slow down, enjoy the conversation, and appreciate what's in front of you.

And that's something we value as a small business.

When you choose a locally owned restaurant, you're doing more than deciding where to eat. You're supporting the families, employees, and people who work every day to keep something meaningful alive in their community.

Whether you're already familiar with traditional Indian food or have been curious to try something new, there's always another dish, spice, or combination of flavors waiting to be discovered.

So if you're wondering where to go for dinner this weekend, we'd love to welcome you to Himalayan Café.

Bring your family, invite a friend, or make it a dinner date. Come hungry, take your time, and enjoy a meal prepared with the flavors of Indian and Nepali tradition.

This is your sign to try a Strawberry Lassi. 🍓

Cool, creamy, slightly sweet, and blended with the tang of yogurt, a Strawberry Lassi is especially good alongside Indian food, giving you that refreshing contrast between bites when the spices start building.

Strawberry takes the traditional lassi in a different direction. The fruit adds just enough sweetness and brightness without losing that thick, smooth texture that makes a lassi a lassi.

If you’ve never had one with your meal before, now you know what to order.

Come try a Strawberry Lassi at Himalayan Café in Pasadena or San Dimas. 🍓🥛

Some restaurants begin with a menu.

Ours began with a family.

The recipes served at Himalayan Cafe were handcrafted by the family behind the restaurant—built from the foods, flavors, spices, and traditions they knew long before there was ever a Himalayan Cafe.

That matters to us.

Because when you eat at a small, family-run restaurant, there are real people behind what arrives at your table. The recipes weren't chosen by a corporate office. The menu wasn't designed hundreds of miles away. It was created here, dish by dish, by the same family that built this business and has continued sharing its food with the community.

There is something worth preserving about places like that.

The locally owned restaurant where the recipes have a story. Where the owners are still connected to what comes out of the kitchen. Where supporting a business means supporting the people who actually built it.

So the next time you're deciding where to eat, come try the food our family has spent years creating.

Order something you've never tried. Tear into some warm naan. Share a few dishes around the table. And experience the recipes that helped make Himalayan Cafe what it is today.

**Eat local. Support family-run businesses. And come hungry.**

Something new is taking shape at Himalayan Group—and this may be one of the most meaningful projects we’ve ever worked toward. What you’re looking at is our vision for the future Himalayan Retreat Center, a place where the mountains, meditation, agriculture, beekeeping, and the traditions that have shaped our company can finally come together in one place.
For our president Kapil, this project is deeply connected to a journey that began more than 30 years ago when he came to America from Nepal and started building a life and a business from the ground up. Over the decades, one opportunity became another—relationships were built, stores opened, businesses grew, and what began with one entrepreneur eventually became Himalayan Group Inc.
Now, that journey is bringing us back to something much simpler: the land. Our vision is to gradually transform this hillside into a retreat surrounded by nature, with meditation huts, gardens, honey bees, walking paths, and spaces designed for people to slow down and reconnect. There is still a lot of work ahead, but we’re incredibly excited to finally begin sharing what we’re building next.
