Authentic Indian, Nepalese, and Tibetan flavors arrived on Garnet Avenue when Himalayan Spice & Savor Indian Cuisine opened at 1768 Garnet Ave in 92109 inside the Pacific Plaza shopping center. The restaurant occupies the storefront that previously housed Tweety Thai Cuisine, which closed in early 2024 after several years at the address. The owner brings nearly fifteen years of culinary experience in the United States and has worked as an Indian chef in France, Dubai, and Nepal before settling in San Diego. Fellow Asian cuisine on Garnet Avenue includes Lanna Thai Cuisine a few blocks west, giving diners a range of flavors within walking distance. The menu spans North Indian classics like Chicken Tandoori, Lamb Shahi Korma, Saag Paneer, and Mushroom Tikka Masala alongside regional specialties such as Goan-style lamb curry with red chili gravy and Indo-Chinese fusion dishes including chili paneer and chicken hakka noodles. The kitchen earned a perfect 100 out of 100 on one health department inspection and a 95 on another, reflecting careful attention to food safety. Vegetarian and vegan options are plentiful, with dishes like Yellow Dal Tadka, Chana Masala, and Cauliflower Manchurian drawing praise from plant-based diners on DoorDash. Biryani platters featuring fragrant basmati rice slow-cooked with fresh herbs and spices are available with lamb, chicken, shrimp, or mixed vegetables and paneer. The restaurant shares Pacific Plaza with co-tenants including Vons, Petco, and Konito's Cafe, providing strong foot traffic and convenient parking. Garnet Avenue regulars looking for Italian comfort food can head to Filippis Pizza Grotto Pacific Beach in the same stretch of the avenue for red-sauce classics and checkered tablecloths. Catering services are available for events and large orders, and beer and wine round out the drink list.
