Dining
Himalayan Kitchen serves Indian and Nepalese food at 1250 US Hwy 2 W in Kalispell, open Tuesday through Sunday for lunch and dinner with a mid-afternoon break. The menu runs through tandoori dishes, biryanis, curries, and a full vegetarian section, with breads such as naan, paratha, and kulcha and a mango lassi to cool things down. Takeout, delivery, and online ordering are available. Its address on US 2 puts it on the road that leads east to West Glacier, about 33 miles away, so it is a practical dinner stop when returning to Kalispell from the park.
