I've really enjoyed Namaste every time I've visited. Over half the menu is meat-free, and most of it is vegan or can be made vegan. It has some great Indian street food options which aren't always available at other places. I had their chai a couple years ago and loved it, I'll have to try again soon! The last time I went I tried their Maharaja cocktail and loved it. It had a great balance of fruity, floral, and spicy flavors.Everything is ordered via phone with a QR code on the table. Servers will bring your food out and they are very helpful and attentive even though they aren't taking your order.
Thank you soooooo very much for putting love and passion into your food!I taste the love, this is what you call “soul food”.My heart and soul was filled.. my tummy too.. but such a great experience to lift your spirits. From the music, to the staff.. thank you,thank you, thank you!This is my new spot!❤️❤️❤️Namaste!A happy customer (iris)
The food is excellent, the portions are fair, and the spice level is perfect.Service is poor. I have yet to have a good experience anywhere when ordering from a QR code at my table. We were brought an appetizer without plates and no one even came on the patio to check on us for at least 10 minutes. When I flagged down someone, she brought plates with no apology and then asked if we were still waiting on more food (which we were.)Bring back real servers or build a process where diners are still checked on and workers understand what food is coming out and where it goes. Don't run a dining establishment like a food truck. Certainly don't nudge us to tip prior to receiving any service if this is the standard.
This is now the second time I’ve been here in the last week, and everything has been absolutely incredible both times. Great service, Thor was an amazing server, food is next level, and the atmosphere is aesthetically pleasing as well as very comforting with a home like Vibe. Our server even went to additional effort (when we asked) to let us know where their food and animal products were sourced from. Everything this restaurant is up to from their ethics on sourcing, to the culture and friendliness is a 10/10 for me.
Excellent food and amazing chai!!My mom and aunty are super picky about eating out and I decided to check out this eatery and it did not disappoint… we got the ginger cardamom chai which was just perfect and not too sweet. In addition we got some apps specially the potatoes that we award winning and were fab. My mom was super impressed with the jackfruit main dish and it was even bette that pretty much every thing was available as a vegan option. Definitely recommend!
Get the chili potatoes (with a side of yogurt to cut the spice). They are spicy, but also have a complex savory profile--they're not just there to melt your face. The fried bread is soft with a delicate crispy outer layer, and reminded me pleasantly of unsweetened funnel cake. The cocktails are delicious and unique but still approachable (the cranberry rosewater one was my favorite).
My partner and I were craving comfort food on this rainy spring day, so we opted for Namaste Cafe. Neither of us had visited this restaurant before, but we were excited to try it. The decor was charming and the ambiance was welcoming. We were instructed to order via the QR code on the table. We ordered using our smart phones, and the food was brought out to us. It’s definitely an efficient way to place orders, but it lacks the personal touch of a full-service restaurant. We assumed this system was put in place because of Covid.I ordered the Creamy Masala Curry with Tofu and a Masala Chai. The curry was flavorful and delicious. The tofu was perfectly spongy, but it tasted faintly of cornstarch. The basmati rice was well-cooked, but I wish it came with a larger serving. The chai was good, but not noteworthy.Overall, it was a solid meal, but pretty pricey…
I love the food here but there is no point paying $20 for an entree when there is no server to greet you or answer questions on the menu.You also can't pay with cash which is very frustrating and unwelcoming to other people in the service industry who have cash to spend.Also how are you supposed to order appetizers first? We ordered everything at once and it all came out at the same time. The service here used to be one of the best parts I am sad.
I always enjoy the food I get here. I like that they continue to add new items to the menu and that their vegan options are easy to find. Service is also always quick and friendly.
Nice environment, menu less ordering available, COVID 10 safe.The food was pretty great in total. It would have been nice to have a slightly more detailed description of the side sauces we ordered and if the server had a better knowledge of what comes with cilantro in it. The award winning potatoes were to die for. Sweet and savory with an added spice of delight. The crispy edges and the drench in sauce was perfect!
