Authentic Indian and Nepali cooking, with a lunch buffet every day

Himalayan Taj brings the flavors of Nepal and India to Houston's Bay Area, just down NASA Parkway from Space Center Houston.

Stop in for our lunch buffet any day of the week, settle in for dinner with a drink from our full bar, or take your favorites home. We also cater weddings, birthdays, corporate events and graduation parties, and our private dining area is available for family gatherings and celebrations.

Our story

About

Himalayan Taj is a family restaurant on NASA Parkway in Houston's Bay Area, a few minutes from Space Center Houston. Our team has more than 15 years of experience cooking Indian and Nepali food, and the menu is the one we know best: handmade momos folded to order, charcoal-grilled sekuwa, curries simmered slowly in the pan they are served from, and naan and kebabs straight out of the tandoor. There are two dining rooms and a full bar with draft beer, wine and spirits. The lunch buffet runs every day of the week, and the second room is available for family gatherings and private events. Whatever brings you in, you will be looked after — our regulars tell us the naan and the drinks keep coming without being asked.

What to expect

The buffet is laid out hot and fresh through the whole lunch service: vegetarian and meat curries, rice, and naan brought to the table as you eat. The selection changes day to day, so there is always a reason to come back. You can also order anything from the full menu instead — the buffet is an option, never a requirement. Call (832) 406-7079 for today's buffet price and for parties of eight or more.

“Come visit this place! Our waiter was so nice and gave us recommendations, and the service was amazing, usually I go to Aggas for butter chicken and garlic naan it’s a little better I can’t believe I’m even saying that!”

“We visited this Indian–Nepali restaurant near NASA in Webster, and overall it was a very solid experience, especially for the price. Buffet Details - Lunch buffet: \$18 Hours: 11:00 AM – 2:30 PM - Dinner: À la carte menu - Buffet includes: - Fresh salads and vegetables - Multiple vegetarian entrées - Several chicken entrées - Sauces, chutneys, and dressings - Two types of desserts - Drinks not included - Fresh naan is served hot to your table by the staff Suggestions for Improvement A few additions could make the buffet even better: 1. Add chicken tikka masala or butter chicken, instead of only offering chicken makhani. 2. Include lamb or goat dishes. The buffet is heavily chicken-focused. 3. Offer more rice varieties. Adding biryani rice would be a great upgrade.”

“Food is yummy, spice level they served what we requested. We ordered vegetable mixed and Palak Paneer they both tested delicious. Garlic naan were too soft. Naan with Mozzarella cheese was medium pizza (8 slices) my both kiddos were full just with that. They loved it too. If you haven visited yet give them a chance.”

“We stopped by for the buffet lunch after visiting the NASA Space Center. There was a wide variety of chicken and vegetable dishes, along with naan and rice. The food was okay — nothing exceptional, but decent overall. The restaurant was clean, and the staff were friendly and attentive. Really liked the rice pudding.”
