Hello! Namaste! & Tashi Delek!

Welcome to Himalayan Kitchen, owned and run by a Sherpa family who are from Himalayan region of Nepal, called Rolwaling Valley located at 4200m from sea level. It takes 3 days from Kathmandu to get this valley. Sherpa is an ethnic group who lives in the mountain region of Nepal. They are known as porters or mountain climbers in the western world as they are the backbone in the climbing world. For most of them, climbing mountains is the only income source to sustain.

Here, we have brought the taste of Himalayas meaning taste of Nepal in this beautiful neighborhood. Our cuisines, ambience, background music and everything will transport you to the Himalayas at least for the time you are at our place. We believe that we are here not only to serve our foods but to exchange cultures & provide the best experience for our guests. And we strongly believe that real food is better for you, your health and for the planet. That’s why we make our foods real, from scratch. Our foods are “Simply Fresh and Made With Love.” and you can see and taste that with everything you try. And all the spices we use are good for your health.

We chose the name “Himalayan Kitchen” because we are from the mountains. Born and raised in the mountains. Not to mention that our Head Chef and the co-owner Nawang Sherpa has climbed the tallest mountain in the world, the Mt. Everest in 1998 after a few unsuccessful attempts before. He has been in the restaurant industry for more than 2 decades, working for different restaurants as a cook and head chef. He also opened Himalayan Restaurant in Coos Bay, Oregon in 2020 before moving here to San Rafael 2023. We opened our door to our guests in this beautiful city on Feb 24, 2023.

We are serving foods from Himalayas with local wines & beers for you. Open 7days a week for Lunch( 11:30-2:30) and Dinner (4:30- 9:00pm). We also deliver through all third party delivery services.
