Great experience at Himchuli RiNo! This place has some of the best Indian cuisine I’ve ever had. I recommend the naan garlic bread and any of the appetizers - super filling and delicious. The main cuisines here all look tasty but I personally got the chicken tikka kabob. Absolutely incredible flavor and super filling. My girlfriend got the chicken tikka masala (hot), and she loved it. Will definitely be coming back here. 10/10 spot for incredible Indian/Nepalese cuisine with impeccable service. Good drink options too. Perfect for a meal with friends or a date night.

Best Indian/Nepalese food I have ever had. I have been to upwards of 50 Indian restaurants all over the US and Europe and this is my favorite hands down. The BEST Saag Paneer I’ve EVER had. Totally worth the price. Truly amazing food. I love the Korma and the Masala as well.

Himchuli has, by far, the best Indian food in Denver. Their menu is unimposing, creative, vegetarian forward, vegan friendly, and highly conducive to sharing. The service is quick, the kitchen is accommodating, and the staff is more than willing to answer questions and guide the experience. Himchuli also has the unique ability to meet the moment; I’ve found myself there on all sorts of occasions from a nice day on their patio to post-break up comfort food take-out. As a Himchuli regular, my favs include: Bhindi Masala, Baigan Bharta, Saptarangi Korma, and the Alu Nann (which is an absolute must).

My friend and I just found our new favorite Indian food spot!! The drinks were immaculate! Bursting with flavor, with the perfect pairings. We could not recommend this place w enough. If you are new to Indian and are unsure on what to order... restaurant week is the perfect taster! They have an awesome menu that’s worth checking out!

Always delicious. Korma is 10/10. Staff is friendly and welcoming! I’ve dined in but I personally prefer to takeout and it’s one my favorite takeout spots in Rino!

Hidden little gem. I've been in Denver three weeks for work, and this is the best meal I've had. The lamb vindaloo was devine, the samosa was incredible. Can't recommend this place enough

This place is the best. Just moved to the area this year. As people who’s regular takeout preference is Indian food, we were looking for a reliable go-to spot to become regulars with. This place is the best. They accomodate various diets and food allergies very well. They also have a super friendly staff and servers, nice outdoor seating, and a very inviting and well decorated interior space for when you choose to eat in the restaurant. Their pakora is delicious, and my partner and i both order vegan masala on a regular basis, made with coconut milk and tofu. I also brought family here when visiting, and they wanted to go to this location for 2/3 nights they visited! We had someone with both a nut and gluten allergy in the group, and staff were very helpful navigating that with ease. Only caution is their “hot” spice level is in fact hot! We used to get “hot” heat level at our previous go-to Indian food spot, but for this restaurant, we will get medium or medium plus. Delicious !

Have had very good experiences here every time so far! The chili momo is absolutely amazing, the tiki masala is incredibly good (the spice levels are real! Start more conservative lol) , and they debatable have the best espresso martini in the city. Lunch and happy hour specials also very good pricing , and good portions! Really just all around great restaurant, with really good food. The wait staff can be a little slow at times if I had to give any feedback to improve on but all in all, great restaurant!
