" This place is legit! The flavors left me craving more. I tried several dishes, including the dal and curry; both were excellent, and the spices were just right. I also must commend the patience of the staff as they worked hard to accommodate orders during the rush hour. I mention only that the interior could use a little upgrade to match the quality of the food, but that won't stop me from returning! Great prices for the food you get here. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have frequent Makalu for their comforting flavors! My personal favorites are the curry dishes which are hearty without being overwhelming. The staff is usually friendly, though sometimes it can be a bit of a wait. I must admit that the place could look better, being a little worn down. However, the essence lies in the flavors, which keep bringing me back. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food at Makalu is undeniably tasty and fresh. We loved every dish we explored! The spice levels were adjustable, which made it easy for everyone in the group to enjoy. However, I felt the place could use a little sprucing up in terms of decor. Overall, fantastic food will have me returning for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't say enough good things about my experience at Makalu! This place is a must-try if you are into authentic Himalayan dishes. The hospitality shown by the staff was outstanding. I went with friends, and we shared a variety of dishes—each was more delicious than the last! The paneer curry stood out for its rich flavors. I did find the atmosphere a bit cramped since the restaurant is small, but the quality of food makes it all worthwhile. I’ll definitely return for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Makalu Himalayan Sherpa Restaurant last week after hearing about it from a friend. Honestly, the food did not disappoint! The samosas were crispy and savory, and the lamb curry was rich and flavorful. However, I did feel that the portions could have been a bit larger for the price, especially based on what I have experienced at other places. The environment was cozy, albeit a little cramped. Service was decent but could improve with attentiveness. Overall, a good experience and I would consider going back. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited last weekend and had a fantastic time! The flavors were vibrant, and the momos were simply the best I've ever tasted. The restaurant is also well-priced, making it a fantastic value. My only complaint was that it was a little noisy, but that’s to be expected when the food is this good! I’ll definitely recommend this place to friends and will return soon for another round of their delicious offerings. " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant has quickly become one of my favorites! The chicken tikka was a home run, and the garlic naan was perfect! Isaac truly takes pride in presenting authentic dishes. My only complaint was the long wait during peak hours, but that is understandable given the quality of food. The decor is simple but atmospheric, making it cozy. It's hard not to feel at ease when you're surrounded by such delicious smells and welcoming staff. Highly recommend for anyone looking for true Himalayan flavors! " (*Curated Review*)
