I LOVE Namaste Cafe! The food is fabulous. I totally couldn't live without the chole and crunchy cabbage salad. My favorite is to add paneer :)
It's such a nice, cozy environment too. They have a beautiful patio, some cool artwork, and a small family-like staff. If you're thinking about stopping in, do it!

The food is amazing and the owners are even better. I'm blessed to have found such a wonderful restaurant and people.
Wow! Let’s start with the location. It’s a restaurant in a residential home. Wonderful location for a large group celebration. It was hard to narrow down what to pick from the menu, but once decided had no regrets. Everything was delicious! The server was very helpful and attentive. Our group thoroughly enjoyed the food and experience at Namaste Cafe!
It is a nice little cute cafe also has own parking at the back. The service was really great and their behaviour was really good.
This is a small family owned restaurant and the food was very tasty. Fired rice and masala curry chicken were very good. Would recommend for good Indian food with a twist
Great curry and in great portions too! A super cute place to go out and eat, will be coming back.
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!
My new favorite lunch place! The food is delicious and plenty of healthy options that don't sacrifice on flavor. The chai is the perfect balance of flavor without being too sweet. I highly recommend this place!
Flavorful food in a quaint space. Lots of yummy options! I love sitting on the patio.
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.
I crave Indian food often and like to come here for a modern take on Indian food. The service can be slow at times but the wait is well worth it! I recommend getting a chai tea while you're there.
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…
