Mt. Everest offers northern "royal" Indian and Nepalese cuisine served in a dressed-for-dinner setting. A great place to go with a mix of vegetarians and meat lovers, the menu has plenty of delicious options highlighted in the vegetarian and non-vegetarian bhojan dinners, specials that allow diners to get a taste of Indian food beyond just chicken tandoori, though that's included too, and sample dishes like mutter paneer, dal makhani and lamb curry.

"Best of Evanston"
adamk from evanston - May 9, 2008
