“A fantastic dining experience at Namsate Indian Cuisine!
My friends and I had a truly wonderful meal here, and I can't recommend it enough. For starters, we ordered the Chicken momos chilly, which were absolutely delicious and a great way to begin our meal.
For the main course, we shared the Lamb Malabar and the Chicken Tandoori. The Lamb Malabar was spectacular—tender, flavorful, and served with a perfect portion of rice. The Chicken Tandoori was also a standout; the portion was generous enough for the three of us to share, even with our other dishes.
Masala chai (tea) was too good, we got to know at the end that's its FREE refills lol.
Beyond the incredible food, the service was exceptional. Our attendant, Pranjal, was attentive, friendly, and made our evening even more enjoyable. His service was 5/5 without a doubt.
Overall, it was a five-star experience from start to finish. We can't wait to come back and try more dishes.“

“I appreciated the fully separate vegan menu that had many options and that it made it so easy to order. We got the vegan yellow lentil and the vegan tofu dish with the “special sauce” description (sorry I can’t remember what it was called haha), both were so good!! Way better than I expected honestly. We got the vegan paratha which was also delicious and something I’ve never tried before. Staff accommodated us coming in on the later side (we didn’t know they closed so early!) which I also appreciated.“
