We visited Namaste for their lunch buffet and were positively surprised with their taste and service. Even though the place was packed, the staff was very efficient in refilling the buffet counters. The taste was authentic and we enjoyed dining here! Definitely recommend and would visit again!

The food is good though the choices for veg and non-veg are limited.Clean, good ambiance and polite service.But it’s way too $$$ for what they serve.To be fair it was always expensive but they served 1 glass of wine or champagne which made it worth it.No more.Overall - good food but over pricedVegetarian options: Few veg options in a very expensive buffet.

Went for the lunch buffet special. Food was great. Staff checked to make sure that food didn't have peanuts (I have an allergy) and were very nice and accommodating.

Oh my goodness, I can't even begin to express how amazing our experience was at Namaste India Bistro! The lamb shank vindaloo was out-of-this-world tender and absolutely delicious. And let's talk about those curries - the flavors were so authentic and satisfying to our taste buds. We were blown away! We are already planning our next trip to Monterey just so we can come back here. Please pass along our many compliments to the talented chef. Can't wait to see you again soon!

Truly the best Indian food in Monterey county, there is no one who comes close. Also the people who work there are awesome, treat them well and tip them generously. Love this place and the people make it for me as well. ?
Mosquitoes in restaurant. Food is not that good. Only naans and rice are good, the rest of the food is awful.

I went here on my last night in Monterey and it did not disappoint. I had the paneer biryani and I am still thinking about it days later. It came with raita and I got the garlic naan too. I wish I’d been able to take the leftovers with me as it was a lot of food and so good.

Went for the buffet, and this can be a very different experience from dinner.Nice place. Decent food and good service. Food could have been hotter and there were no samosa when we first arrived although the they were not busy.Not the best curry I’ve had by any means. But up there when it comes to curry in Monterey county, so worth a visit and I’d eat there again for sure.Atmosphere lacked due to quietness, but no issues.
This is a great restaurant! Service has been great each visit, lunch buffet has my favorites each time with some revolving dishes so I can try new items too!
Amazing experience, super ⭐ helpful staff and best services. Thanks for a delicious ? food.Vegetarian options: Delicious vegan options in the menu
