Girlfriend got food poisoning from finishing only half of her butter chicken. Unless you feel excited thinking about throwing up avoid this place, not even that good Indian food. Instead just gag yourself with a $20 bill, save money and avoid the stomach pain ?

Non-veg Lunch - 10/10 Boneless chicken curry - 9/10 Service - 10/10 Ambiance - 8/10 We were pleasantly surprised with the taste and servings given the price point of their food. My non-veg lunch ($11) had chicken tikka masala, butter chicken, rice, naan and dessert. There were around 3 chunks of meat for each curry and a lot of sauce. Both had good flavor and compliments well w their naan (which is more on the thinner crispier side). While am not a fan of gulab jamun, I appreciate that they added that to the meal. The plastic container was convenient for leftovers and reheating. My husband liked his chicken curry which had a good spice to it. Our server was attentive and friendly. Definitely made our lunch pleasant. The restaurant has simple layout and decor. There's ample parking outside. Not sure about other reviews but we are happy to add this to our go to lunch places.

Their 3.5 stars rating is about right. Google hours on the websites wrong. They open at 11:30am not 10am. We went here for lunch. They do have a very good lunch special that is very good for the value. You get two meats and rice, bread and dessert for $11. Really can't get this amount of food for this price. We also ordered other things and it was very good. However for some reason, they didn't ask us about spice level (we are not Indians so we don't have a very high spice level) and the goat curry was on the spicy side. We both end up having issues at home after eating it. We don't know what triggered our stomach issues exactly but thought maybe we aren't used to the spice level. The other thing that was kinda weird was there was no line on the receipt for tips. So I guess you leave them on the table or you don't tip? It would be nice if they had an option to tip the server/staff.

The worst Indian food I have ever had this place is not good and very unhygienic

I'm honestly impressed with how BLAND the food was. I think it would be hard to recreate such tasteless Indian food. I only tried the butter chicken with Naan and plain rice. So maybe just avoid all that.

We generally order veg 555 biryani (spicy) and Namasthe special masakali chicken biryani to go. And we love the biryanis! No matter how busy the restaurant is, the consistency in taste is commendable. The veg biryani has ample amount of vegetables unlike other biryani places where it just has colored rice.

Indian food is some of the best takeout you can get, because there's always plenty for leftovers. It's even better with great prices and delicious choices like this restaurant. We ordered through a delivery app, so I can't speak on the service or interior, but the food was delicious after travel and reheated the next day.
I used to love going to Namaste and their food prior to Covid -19. There used to be a gentleman helping me and my family in order to make sure we are getting good service and food. But post covid had no issues in take out but I was surprised to go in during Weekend buffet hours where we (me and my family) were told they are closing in few minutes so no more dine in (completely okay with that) I just then asked whether we could eat whatever was left in buffet (again received "No" for an answer, so we left. There were people sitting in restaurant and still eating and we couldn't have taken more time as we were in rush anyway. But anyhow I do miss the old service and politeness that used to be. Their food is nice so will recommend either take out or delivery.

Always amazing. The staff is very friendly and takes care of us every time we visit. Food has been top notch always. This has been my go to place in Bothell area for Indian food for a while now.

One of the best Hyderabadi dum biryanis you can have in the puget sound region.Note that, the spicy levels in the biryani is inconsistent. For 3/5, sometimes it's too bland and sometimes it's too spicy.If you are not a regular consumer of spicy food (unlike most Indians and Mexicans), you might better tell them explicitly and even opt for 2/5 or even 1/5. Again, they don't deliver consistency here so be prepared to get surprised in either way.
Let's be honest First of all we came here on a Friday drove on the traffic I came here because my uncle recommended it this is one of the best place I've been too totally coming back the service was really good they took care of us pretty well the food was just the right thing for the day... the restaurant is clean and quiet...they have a buffet which we will definitely come and bring more people in

This is the worst place ever. We ordered veg biriyani and they gave us chicken biriyani. We couldn't even notice the chicken until the end as the chicken was minced very small. I'm never ever going to order from this restaurant.
