Flavors of India is a good small business in westside for himalayan indian food.
At the first glance in the hall, I was impressed to see all locals (not indians) in an ethnic food place. This is usually not a very sign if I am looking for a traditional indian place, most of these places later their recipes to suit the local taste. The server informed us that the chef is from Bhutan, a small himalayan country north east of India. I was excited to have a chance to eat some of the Bhutanese food now.
Ambiance is quite nice. One thing I admire about this place is that no loud bollywood music in the background, instead nice soothing classical indian music. Server was a very nice man who was extremely polite and helpful with menu.
We orderd one of the vegetarian fixed place which was enough for two people and costs only 11$, good deal. Food was different but good tasting. We could not finish the whole thing and had enough left over for next day. The only negative thing was the dessert, it was bad and most likely out of the box.
Overall a nice Himlalayan place for good food!
