“ The food was sooooo good! The wait staff was very attentive, but not overbearing. We had first dined here last fall, but remembered it from that time and wanted to make sure to go again on this trip. I had the Chicken Tikka Masala (mild). I would probably order medium next time though. My husband had the spicy Lamb Rogan Josh and absolutely loved it. Highly recommend Namaste. Give it a try. ”

“ Excellent Indian food, best I have had outside of India! This is one of the best restaurants in Palo Alto. ”

“ Uniqueness: Classic Indian flavors with excellent service Wait Time: [x][x][x][ ][ ] (Popular spot, reservations recommended) Food Quality: [x][x][x][x][ ] Service: [x][x][x][x][x] (Fast, friendly, and attentive) Setting: [x][x][x][x][ ] Cost: [x][x][x][x][ ] Tried this Indian restaurant and overall had a solid experience. The food was flavorful, well-spiced, and satisfying. Some dishes stood out more than others, but everything was well-executed and comforting. Service was a highlight--waiters were fast, friendly, and very attentive, making sure we had everything we needed without feeling rushed. This place is popular, though, so reservations are a good idea, especially during peak hours. The setting was warm and inviting, though it can get a bit crowded due to its popularity. Prices are reasonable for the quality, making it a great spot for a solid Indian meal. Would definitely come back, but next time, I'll make sure to book ahead! ”

“ After trying countless Indian places from San Jose to San Francisco, I would rank this as the #2 place, and the best in the south bay. I've tried the chicken tikka masala, butter chicken, and tandoori chicken, with rice and difference naans. I'd recommend ramping up the spice level on these items and also try the onion chili naan for something unique. I've tried this 3 times, all via delivery, so it is probably even better in-person. ”

“ Order- Lamb stuffed with goat cheese Button mushrooms Corn malai tikka Chicken tikka masala Garlic naan Food here was solid. CTM was a bit on the drier side so if you prefer more richness try the butter chicken instead Highlights were the strawberry beer and the mango sauce served w corn tikki. Also the garlic naan was perfect and soft - well executed. And the lamb kabob was very tender and well cooked Service was exceptional and very warm - we were checked on often. . ”

“ Calm and quiet ambience. The service was friendly. We tried the chicken Malabar, naan, complimentary rice, and corn, potato tikki. I loved the naan. That means next time I come here I have to try the tandoori items. Looking forward. ”

“ Outstanding food! I cannot recommend this place enough, best Indian food I've ever had. Ambiance seems casual, but the way the dishes are prepared and decorations inside surprised me! Service is fine, nothing special but it wasn't poor. Do yourself a favor and check this place out ASAP! ”

“ It's a small place but bring big appetite as portions are decent sized and food is lip smacking. Servers are friendly and helpful. There are outside tables, which I would recommend. If you get the inside table, try not to choose the corner, next to bar. That's where they stack up washes dishes and we had the continuous tinkling of dishes as they were wrapping up for the day. While I understand that they have to clean up by the end of the day, they could have given a table on other side , which was completely empty. Small annoyance. Food quality is awesome and made up for it. Will visit again. ”

“ This place was so delicious! We came here on a Sunday afternoon and were seated immediately. We got the butter chicken, the lamb biriyani, and cheese naan. The food came out really hot and looked a lot bigger than we thought. The butter chicken was so smooth and had a perfect blend of spices and tomato. There was a decent amount of chicken in it as well and I liked the side of rice on the side. The lamb biriyani was a bit spicy for my taste but my boyfriend really liked it as it was hearty and had a lot of lamb pieces in it. We really liked the fried onions on top as it was a unique touch to the dish! The cheese naan was super flavorful and was perfectly stuffed with cheese. I put the butter chicken sauce on it and it tasted even better. It was a bit pricey but would definitely come back here! ”

“ Love this place and i can see why it has such great reviews. We ordered: Gopi Manchurian -- so good! The cauliflower has a great meaty texture. The sauce is amazing. Prawn in pepper sauce -- the sauce resembles a curry sauce . Tikka masala -- delicious sauce ! Vindoloo -- very spicy and delicious. Overall it is now my favorite Indian place! ”
