"My dinner date and I were a bit confused when we tried to go inside the restaurant, only to discover that the entire building was the kitchen. It turns out they only offer curbside pickup and takeout. However, a friendly hostess taking orders outside showed us a paper menu and encouraged us to order online for pickup. The food arrived quickly and was exactly what we had ordered. My companion got the chicken bibimbap and I got the sizzling beef, both of which were filled with delicious and colorful ingredients. The dishes were neatly packaged for takeout and provided a filling and delightful dining experience. The food and friendliness of the staff have definitely convinced us to return in the future!"

"This place is a real sleeper and we never would have tried it were it not for neighbors and friends that spoke so highly of it. We were not disappointed. As instructed by friends, I ordered the pork chop the first time we went. Oh my goodness! It was enormous! And cooked to perfection. Everything about our meal was pleasant. Service was conscientious but not overbearing, wait times were reasonable, our meals came out timely and hot. It is a funny place in a converted home but they have done a nice job with it and it felt comfortable. If you have not yet eaten here, it is worth a visit."

"I've visited here in the past, but it's been a few years. I fondly remember enjoying the family style dining. Most recently I ate here with a friend and it left a bit to be desired... They were busy when we arrived but my friend had made a reservation so we didn't have to wait long. We were seated in a corner booth type table. Friend is gluten free and we chose this restaurant as they offered gf pasta dishes. That did not disappoint. It was exciting to learn that all of their sauces are gluten free and they have a pasta offering as well. They had a special 2 for dinner special and we ordered that. We both selected salads, chicken fettucine alfredo and we had the caramel apple torte with ice cream on the side (ice cream is gf). I also asked if they offered a bread service and the waitress advised that they did. I was very excited for dinner! The food and service however were disappointing.... bread service arrived after the salads... There was confusion with the salads one was supposed to be gf, the other dressing on the side. Neither had croutons and both had dressing on them. The person delivering them was also confused with them and they gave us a bit of doubt about whether the gf portion of the meal would be accurate (this is very important when you have celiac). The pastas arrived and sadly they only tasted okay. I thought maybe it was a preference on my behalf but friend was also disappointed with the flavor. The sauce lacked flavor and texture.... I still had hope for the dessert but didn't care much for it either. The outer crust had a flavor I didn't care for and I didn't finish. The ice cream however was delicious! Service throughout the meal was sporadic but they were busy so we didn't think much of it. However when it was time for dessert and the check our waitress was ready and literally advised she would wait while i reviewed the dessert menu and made a selection. Overall, it was nice that they had multiple sauce offerings that were gluten free as this was a main driver of us choosing this restaurant, however based on food taste, I most likely would not return. There are too many other great Italian restaurants in st louis."

"This was my first visit to Himalayan Hut, and I really enjoyed the food! The restaurant is spacious and never felt crowded. On a busy Saturday night, I noticed many takeout orders being picked up. We tried a Nepalese-style appetizer unfamiliar to us and absolutely loved it—it was delicious and definitely worth trying. The chicken biryani was hot, flavorful, and well-balanced, with a tasty sauce. The tandoori chicken had wonderful flavor and a nice char. Service was good, and our drinks were refilled without any issues. The only downside was at the end when I tried to use a check-in promotion from Yelp (which has since been removed). The server refused to honor it, calling it fake, which made for an awkward ending to our night. I reached out to Yelp afterward, and they informed me that the restaurant was contacted to remove the offer if it wasn’t valid. Still, we felt uncomfortable being subtly accused of trying to scam them."

"Ate here w our kids and had a nice meal. Kids had a buffet designed for them which worked out great and. Ore higher end restaurants should heed this call. $15 each but included lots of choices which kids love as well as deserts and a drink. I had the swordfish which was a bit overdone and a bit tasteless. My wife had the filet which was served over a tomatoe based medley of zucchini and squash which really didn't go with it very well. Read reviews and told side of Russell sprouts was roasted but they arrived steamed and again tasteless. All in the best part of the meal was our excellent waiter. Ate at pacific grille the night before and that meal was a lot tastier."
