History

Established in 1994.

Khyber was the brainchild of Mickey Kapoor . After starting three other Indian restaurants in Houston , he saw that the regional food of the mountains of northwest India was not represented in the city . The cuisine of the mountains is generally chicken , lamb and game cooked over an open flame , charcoal tandoori oven , or a grill . The food is very lean ,uniquely flavored , not overly spicy hot and lightly cooked . The concept was met with great appreciation and the restaurant has maintained a record of resounding success for 24 years .
