What do you get when you combine low-quality, frozen ingredients with authentic south Indian spices? Himalayas! The spices and sauces are authentic and tasty, but they're applied to frozen vegetables or dry, over-cooked cuts of meat. The resulting dishes are OK for a buffet, but don't think this can be called fine, or even above-average cuisine. Service, decor, and ambience... more

Himalayas is a nice addition to the Indian food scene in Norman. The nightly dinner buffet has a large selection with many vegetarian options. Friday through Sunday, the buffet includes South Indian foods such as masala dosa. Service is prompt and pleasant. Definitely worth checking out. more
