Himalayan Tandoori & Curry House

One of our favorite restaurants in Sebastopol. Consistently tasty food. The daal (lentil soup, complimentary when eating in) is so smooth and savory, even a friend who dislikes lentils enjoyed it; it is also vegan and gluten free. We are hooked on the chicken tikka masala, chana masala (chickpeas), and all the dishes with paneer. You can choose how mild or spicy you want the entrees. You can see the spice pods in the sauces which add to the chickapow flavors. All of the naan is great; the cilantro one was surprising and the butter naan is our favorite. They offer both brown and white rice. The owner and family are so welcoming while also being quick and never intrusive. It's nice to have a sit down place without picnic benches, although it's also not fancy. Right outside is a vibrant, diverse garden (try to guess what is growing on the tree!). We have also had pick up orders that were no different in quality. I pretty much never write reviews, but I want others to try this place so that it never closes.
