Stopped in for an early dinner on a Monday afternoon in May. We chose this place because it was close to the rental car return facility at SeaTac airport. We were seated right away. The place was empty. We started with the vegetable samosas which...were very good. We also ordered the bhindi masala and the chicken vindaloo. They were very huge portions but we're average quality. We also had a plain naan which was quite good and a kashmiri naan which was over done causing it to be flavorless. They did have ice cold Taj Mahal beers. The waiter was very nice and friendly and professional but overall the food was just average.More

The takeout situation at Royal Everest is problematic as we called far ahead for our order yet I waited at least 20 minutes once I arrived before I received the food. Once we got our goodies back to the hotel room, we were very pleased...with the flavorings. The tandoori chicken was nicely seasoned and unbelievably tender, one of the best versions ever. The curries and vegetable dishes were also excellent. The one disappointing dish/item was the naan. For us, this is a critical part of the meal. Their version was more like the texture of focaccia, not at all like naan we've had elsewhere. We ended up not eating it and would not order it again unless we could confirm it is being made in a more traditional style.More

We have eaten here many times and have never had a reason to complain. Nothing is ever perfect, but the food is almost always excellent. The servers through the years have all been wonderful and the owner is such a nice personalble guy. Can't wait...for weekend buffet again.More

We called in an order on Sunday 12/13 for delivery and spent over $100... The food was cold. The meat was dry and overcooked. The portions were incredibly small. And, we were charged $2.00 for a single CAN of Sprite. We reached out to the...establishment immediately. I, personally, have tried to call as well as leave a message via the website. I have received no response. We have ordered many times in the past, however, this delivery was beyond disappointing - it was terrible. One of my friends became extremely sick. I am all about being understanding during these difficult times, but this was really out of character for your establishment. I would appreciate a refund and at minimum an explanation.More

I love Indian food no matter what region of India the food is from ... and the food here met my expectation. I was a little worried when I first walked in and I only saw three customers in the place. But after eating my...Lamb Vindaloo, I was in my happy place.As for vegetarians, they have a good selection of dishes to meet your needs. I will say the server was very friendly, but his pace was a little slow ... he was not ignoring us, but rather it seems he didn't want to either bother us or rush us. That said, I always managed to catch his attention and he quickly got what we needed (extra rice, more Naan and drink refills). As I was sitting there, I kept thinking I would love to try their buffet, but unfortunately they don't do buffet during the weekdays. So, I guess I'll have to come back during the weekend to try out their buffet. The restaurant's ambiance is a bit dark, but it is very clean and floor plan is well laid out. Parking can be a little problematic, it's street side parking and there are lots of shops in the strip mall.More

Service could use some work but the food was good. Non-veg dinner for two was enough food for 3. Garlic Naan a bit non standard but butter chicken and Daal were good.

My husband found this place on line, while searching for goat curry, and what a find it was! We had the paneer pakoras and calamari for appetizers, and mango curried goat, palak paneer masala, and aloo gobi as main dishes. Went with medium spice level,...which was perfect for hubby, though I could have gone to medium-hot. Fantastic, and perfect portion sizes. Also be sure to try the keema naan, stuffed with ground lamb. Yum! Service was a bit slow, though not unexpected on a busy Friday night. We definitely plan to return.More

I have never had one establishment be so different on two different visits. My first visit there the service was superb and the food was incredibly good. My second time there the service was appalling and in fact waited over an hour to get my...meal and still didn’t get it after an hour. My husband had been served in about 15 minutes and he was generous enough to give me some of his food. After about an hour and 15 minutes when we still weren’t serve my meal we decided to leave. Worst part was that they didn’t even attempt to make things right and there was no apology. I am debating if we will return. It’s a gamble. JEKMore

We eat here on a regular basis, the food is very good, the service is better! Though I do have to say the color scheme is a bit off putting. The place looks like it would be poor, our first visit we debated leaving! I'm...glad we stayed, it is one of the best for Indian food in the West Seattle, Burien area! Here is the one thing that keeps me from giving it 5-stars; the owner keeps all tips! The staff has to turn them in if left in cash and whatever you add to your card you give to the owners. I worked several years in restaurants and consider this a travesty. It took me a while to come back after I learned this. I do go sometimes now (not like we used to) but I do not tip!More

Visited again and had thier Aloo Mutten Mushroom and it was amazing. Just a word of caution, if you like it really hot then great. If not say mild. I usually eat really hot food I thought, I typically get medium here and it is...perfect for me. Hot is good during the winter time it will warm you up!More

From the eighteen vegetarian offerings we enjoyed...Faal Makhani [$10.95] and vegetable coconut curry [$10.95.] Our meat eater feasted on chicken kofta curry [$12.95.]. Only three Nepalese items on the menu.Service friendly, enthusiastic, Open nine months. Comfortable seating, quiet. Highly recommend.More

While the restaurant wasn't much to look at (inside or out), they made up for it in the tasty food. We were a group of 4 adults, 1 kid, and 1 baby. Everyone was satisfied!! Baby liked rice and tikka masala, 8yo devoured the naan...(we had to order extra!) and the tandoori chicken, and adults liked everything. We'll be back -- hopefully to try their lunch buffet!More

This is a fairly new restaurant. The food is very good, though not distinctive, Indian food. Portions are large. Service is good, slightly slow. Prices are very reasonable.

I love all the food there and the service. They are just wonderful and they are trying really hard to have a top notch restaurant. The food is a mixture or Nepali and Indian and very good and very authentic. When they ask you what...level of spice remember what I said above "authentic" . Start with medium and work your way up. By the way, I am mostly Vegan and have no problem finding a great meal there. They also have great meat dishes according to friends I've take there.More
