Had lunch at this place. Feels like a small town restaurant. People are nice here, and they seems like are from the Everest area! Payed $ 11.99 for the buffet, which is slightly pricy. But the food is decent.

We came here from San Francisco and were surprised to find such good authentic Indian food here. We liked that food here so much that we came back here on multiple nights. Really good vegetarians entrees, I highly recommend this place if you are in the neighborhood.

Fantastic. Can see why so highly rated. Utsav is the man! Was looking for something mild and still have that umami feeling and it did not disappoint. Everyone was friendly and it felt perfectly family owned

Agree with the shortfalls with décor and price being premium for a place that isn’t quite decked out… but I don’t care at all. I didn’t come here because I wanted a fine dining experience, but rather a fine meal. I was very pleased with the sag paneer, lamb korma, and naan. Their medium is quite spicy for most people, and their hot is just awesome if you are into that kind of thing. Please keep making good food! Of note its also apparently very kid friendly? Didn’t expect this but there were a ton of children.

We really wish we could give this place 4.5 stars. We subtracted half-a-star for two things; 1) Price. The dishes are about $ 2 – 3 more than most Indian places and this one would classify as a hole-in-the-wall(so should technically be lower in price) and 2) They are required to keep the door open(fire code?), which could get really cold and noisy from outside traffic. The food and service are five stars. We ordered Mushroom Matter, Chicken Tikka Masala, Tandoor Plate, tons of Naan, and Palak Paneer. We really enjoyed everything and the Chicken Tikka Masala served here is now our Gold Standard(make sure you order it, it is amazing). Our only complaint about the food was the Tandoor Plate. They serve it on a plate similar to Fajitas from a Mexican Restaurant and the food amalgamated into a large pile.

I specifically requested Himalayan/Nepalese food on our trip to South Dakota, and the spouse chose Everest for our first dinner out in Rapid City. The restaurant is fairly small, and set up for buffet service(likely at lunch). The staff were friendly and we settled right in to warm up a little with masala tea and Everest’s Chef Special Appetizer — a variety of pakoras and samosa — to tide us over. Both of us ordered lamb dishes — Lamb Bhutuwa and Lamb Kadai. I requested spicy for the Bhutuwa and it came out perfectly. The spouse’s Kadai was delicious as well — and came with naan. An order of garlic-basil naan rounded out our big meal, and we had leftovers. It was a solid, comfortable meal and reasonably priced — well worth it.

Best Nepalese/Indian place in Rapid City. Casual and unassuming. I definitely recommend this place.

Great Indian food! Place is casual and unassuming but we enjoyed everything we had. We started with the sample appetizer, delicious! I had the chicken tandoori tiki and my husband had the lamb curry, both were very good. Warning, medium hot was pretty hot! Also had the garlic and basil naan, excellent!

While staying in Spearfish we drove to Rapid and back just for dinner at Everest Cuisine. Awesome as usual fresh and so delicious. If you are in the Black Hills area Everest Cuisine has a wonderful fair for your culinary delight.

Excellent! It had been too long since my last rogan josh, and I never would have expected South Dakota to be where I’d find it prepared so well. It took a little longer than most restaurants for the meal to arrive. My wife and I knew this meant they were actually preparing our meal and not microwaving some day old sauce. When the meal arrived the fresh spices were like a romantic perfume. More than worth the wait. I don’t know when I’ll next be in Rapid City but Everest will be on my must visit list.

We were on our way back from Montana and spent a night in Rapid City and found this place for dinner. This is a hidden gem for sure. We were seated right away and the staff was very nice and the service was wonderful. We ordered a couple of entrees and some garlic naan. I kept it simple with the lamb curry as i had a craving for curry and the GF had the Chana Masala. They asked us what spicy level and being we both love spicy food weren’t let down. They brought the heat unlike many places. Everything was cooked and prepared perfect. The naan was delicious, so don’t forget to order some. If you are traveling through, skip every chain you see on the way and enjoy some great local Indian food.

I come to Rapid about once a year on average to visit family and every time we go to Everest. The lunch buffet is an outstanding value, but be wary of overstuffing yourself on the unlimited Chicken Tikka Masala. I will usually order from the menu, since I like my food spicy. Again, be wary, because when they say«Mild, Medium or Hot?» the«Hot» is HOT. You can’t go wrong with anything on this menu. FIVESTARS.

Wife, Mother-in-Law, & I dined last night at Everest Cuisine. ALL of us are noobies when it comes to Indian food. We let our waiter(might have been the owner) order for us. He asked a few questions, & I let the ladies do the talking. For $ 92 which includes a $ 15 tip(no booze ordered) we enjoyed a delicious meal with enough leftovers for another meal each! Phenomenal value says I. Restaurant is small and unpretentious. The parking lot is also small(can smell good food yummy small from outside); but at 5:30PM the lot already had several cars in it which I took to mean that earlier Unilocal reviews were correct: a great Indian place in South Dakota which I thought incongruous. By the time we left, the restaurant was full with nice folks, GREAT smells, and happy times. Eat here. Enjoy dining simply and sumptuoutsly. Enjoy leftovers. Save the overpriced joints for the next day.

Best Indian food I have ever had! Flew in for work and ended up coming back for seconds! The flavor and the food was tasted better every bite! We ordered the samosas for appetizer and paneer masala and lamb saag for dinner. We came back two days later for lunch before flying out and had the buffet. The service was quick and friendly. It was so great! Can’t wait to come again!

Best Indian Food I have ever had, beats the heck out of what you can get in bigger cities in the mid-west. Chicken Curry, extra hot with Garlic Naan. My favorite meal!!! Mild Chicken Saag with Roti is my husband’s favorite choice. My daughter loves their Chicken Mak-Hani. I could eat here every day of the week!!!

We had stopped by here for lunch, instead of the lunch buffet we ordered our food. We got the appetizer plate, most of the items there were good. We ordered malai kofta and the chicken curry both were really good. The chicken curry was made spicy which was actually hit the authentic level of indian spicy which was good for a change. We also got a couple of naans, which was correct for the four of us. It’s a good place at a reasonable price.

Magical. If I had to describe this gem in one word, that is the word I would use. Not only are they pleasant, they go above and beyond. It is the kind of place where you almost feel embarrassed by how well they are treating you. The best part? It is hidden in a hole in the wall, strip mall kind of building that looks like it houses liquor and cigs, not Indian delicacies. I came in for a take out order and they offered me hot chai(yum) while I waited. They checked on me to make sure I was comfortable. They thanked me for my business. And all of this before I had even tried the food. THEFOOD. Heavenly. Vegetable Biryani medium spicy, vegetable samosa and garlic basil naan. Holy hot dogs! The portions are gigantic and they are generous with the condiments. I had plenty of raita and chutney to spare. This place is divine. I know I sound like I am gushing, but I came for Mt Rushmore, and found Everest Cuisine. My only regret is that I won’t be in town to eat here tomorrow. If you live in Rapid City, you are one lucky duck.

This was, by far, the best meal I’ve eaten since moving to North Dakota from Los Angeles in 2012 and would quite possibly beat any of the similar meals I had ever eaten before moving. Fresh and hot and perfectly flavored, excellent service, and totally reasonable prices. We had the Chef’s special appetizer and every single bite was amazingly good and the sauces were excellent. We had the garlic naan which was bubbly and crisp and perfect. Ordered the chicken korma which is always one of our favorites and this was really the best of the best, the lamb curry which was so tender it was unbelievable, and the mushroom mutter which neither of us had ever had before and LOVED. I don’t like to repeat restaurants when we travel, so that we’re always trying new things, but when we hit Rapid City again, I’ll have to break that rule for Everest. I am so jealous of the locals. Awesome, awesome place.

This place was absolutely incredible, and just as tasty as Nepalese food in any major city. Very relieved to have found it in rapid City– we need more authentic locally owned dining places like this! The flavors were so dynamic and the atmosphere feels electric in here– everyone around you is also having a joyous experience with their meal and the staff is friendly but doesn’t harass you. I can’t wait to come back again!
