Namaste Indian Cuisine in Santa Cruz offers a variety of flavorful dishes in a nice ambiance. The servers are friendly and attentive. The food is very delicious and the taste is on point. The restaurant is known for its delicious Indian/Nepali cuisine, with dishes like momo that remind customers of Nepal. The chicken momo are some of the best outside of Nepal, and the Chicken momos chilly are absolutely delicious.
The food has been awesome, with a fantastic dining experience. The buttered chicken and garlic naan are the best. Dishes like the Lamb Malabar are spectacular—tender and flavorful. The Chicken Tandoori is also a standout with a generous portion. Vegan options are clearly marked on the menu, and the palak paneer is especially fresh and delicious, using fresh local spinach. The masala chai is too good and has free refills.
