Customer Reviews
We ordered the Aloo Tikki, Chicken Biryani, Lamb Vindaloo, Fish Curry, Chicken Tikka Masala, garlic naan and mango lassi. The food was delicious, well portioned and priced competitively. The restaurant itself is very clean and well maintained, including the restroom. Most importantly, Rakesh was warm, friendly, and very attentive. With quite a few Indian restaurants in the area, Namaste is a great surprise. My family gives it a very good recommendation.
Namaste India has become our go to stop on the way back from Upstate, and the reason is simple: Kulcha with Chole combo. Every bite takes me straight back to India, the stuffed aloo kulcha slathered with butter, paired with flavorful chole, raita, tangy achaar, and crunchy onion on the side. Add a hot masala chai to it, and suddenly all the tiredness of the journey just melts away. On our recent visit, we decided to explore beyond our usual order. While the other dishes were decent, none quite lived up to the unbeatable comfort and authenticity of their kulcha chole. Its a must try if you are visiting this restaurant.
Visited Namaste India with a group of 8 on a really busy day. There was a bit of a wait to get seated and for the food to arrive, but the atmosphere stayed welcoming and calm the whole time. The shahi paneer was very rich, creamy, and full of flavor. Perfectly cooked and paired so well with the naan. I also loved the mango shakeee!! Yumm Not overly sweet, just really refreshing and satisfying. Despite how packed it was, the staff stayed kind, attentive, and genuinely warm. Everyone was greeted with a smile, and there was this comforting, family-like energy in the way they interacted. It didn’t feel rushed or transactional—it felt like being taken care of. Definitely worth the wait, and highly recommended for anyone looking for flavorful food and a welcoming vibe.
Rakesh served me and my family party of 8 today. He was FANTASTIC. I had the Mango Lassi and Medium Chicken Tikka Masala along with tasting the other curries from my party members. You get served with your curries in these special metal bowls which holds the curry to ensure it is freshly hot, retains it's heat, and has optimal scoopability when scooping your curry into your plate. If you want to eat from the bowl itself, you can -- if you want to share your delicious delights with your family (or take for your palate), you can. And I personally recommend this option for the family experience and to try as many of their menu choices. Ps. Personal opinion. If you want something light, sweet, and like a mango-creamsicle in a glass, choose the Mango Milkshake. If you're looking for something
The food here is fantastic, and the folks who own the restaurant are really nice. The chef greeted us personally, and they were able to accommodate a member of our party who cannot eat spicy food. I HIGHLY recommend the fish curry!
