Overview

Himalayan Dine is a Nepalese and Indian restaurant on Kilmarnock Road in Shawlands, at the former Little India site. It opened around 2018 and trades as Tamag Traders Limited. The room is small and cosy, with booth seating and a relaxed, unassuming feel; reviewers often praise attentive staff and fair drink prices alongside the food. The menu mixes Nepalese dishes — momos (dumplings), chicken sekuwa, Himalayan gosht, Everest-style lamb chops — with familiar Indian curries, tandoori and Indo-Chinese options such as chilli chicken. Fish dishes (monkfish tikka, Goan fish curry, fish pakora) and naans, especially peshwari, come up often in reviews. Dine-in, takeaway and delivery are all offered; online ordering is available for collection and delivery. It is closed Mondays. Typical hours are Tuesday–Wednesday from mid-afternoon, Thursday with a lunch and evening split, Friday–Saturday from midday, and Sunday from mid-afternoon (check the site for exact times). Lunch and pre-theatre set menus are repeatedly described as good value. Table booking is available via the website reservation page or by phone. There is no verified restaurant claim of halal certification or a BYOB/corkage policy; reviews describe a licensed bar with reasonably priced wine and drinks, so expect to buy alcohol on site rather than bring your own. Shawlands railway station is about a seven-minute walk.

Lovely wee place this, casual dining doing a range of classic dishes and hearty Nepalese cuisine that I’d not experienced before. Was nostalgic and reminded me of many places I went to growing up. Decor was relaxed and clean, staff were attentive and very friendly and the menu was easy to navigate and full of delicious dishes back to front. Could not fault the food at all, mixed pakora was excellent, crispy batter with fresh ingredients delivered with some banging sauces. Homemade pakora sauce and brilliant Rita with the lamb. Poppadoms and dipping sauces is always a class way to start a meal too. Think the star of the show here is without a doubt the curries. Wow. I got a Nepalese Gosht and my goodness just packed with flavour. Big serving too meaning I went from starving to stuffed in a matter of minutes, couldn’t help myself from wolfing the whole thing down. For a classic Indian / Nepalese meal I would highly recommend this place. It isn’t a super fancy new age tiny small plates posh joint, it’s a down to earth family friendly homely establishment serving hearty food at a great price. Staff and everyone around us had a smile on their face, food was served in minutes and their service for a man in a wheelchair was nothing but top shelf. My only complaint is the place should be bigger so more people can enjoy it :) Really lovely meal, thanks so much.

Had the best experience here with my family for lunch. The service was warm and friendly and the food was bursting with flavour. Everything we had was delicious - including the fish pakora, lake side chicken, veggie and chicken momo and garlic chilli chicken. As a southside foodie, I cant recommend this place enough. Incredible value for money!

Many places claim to have authentic Indian dishes but sadly it's always disappointment. However this place surprised me! There recipes were truly authentic especially the Indo-Chinese fusion dishes. Coming from Kolkata where Indo-Chinese fusion is always special, I have to say after many years in UK I got those flavours at this place. Make sure you ask for desi level flavours and spices to get the most!

We came here to celebrate a birthday and the food was fabulous! We got some chicken dumplings and 4 dips as a starter which was really good! I got chicken chow mein and garlic naan while my boyfriend and his brother got butter chicken. Butter chicken was really nice and it wasn’t too spicy! There was plenty of chicken and the right amount of sauce.

The set-menu lunch special is excellent value for money and the food was delicious! Mushroom parkora to start and chicken chasni for main with pilau rice and naan bread = all fabulous! Portions were ample and there were no objections when we asked for a "doggy bag" Service was seamless and prompt.
