The food was excellent. The service was capable and reasonably friendly. The atmosphere was incredible, with music that was pleasant yet not intrusive, and the decor (art, really) was gorgeous. In addition to the options listed below, the different members of our dining party enjoyed the Butter Chicken, Lamb Rogan Josh, and Lamb Malabar.

📌Free city parking, Lot 5 enters from Cambridge Ave at New Mayfield Lane. Walk to California Ave through Mimosa Ln. 👍Samosa (4pcs) Crispy, not greasy, along with 3 condiments : Mint cilantro chutney, Tamarind chutney, and a deliciously nice surprise : mildly spicy Mango chutney! 👍Malai Kofta Must be one of the best in the 415/650/408 area. You'll come back for more! 👍Shrimp Vindaloo Huge prawns! 🏆Very cozy and pretty romantic ambiance. Super friendly servers. ✨️Both the better tastes and bigger portions make this lovely Indian restaurant a hidden gem for good value comparing to others.

I visited Namaste Indian Cuisine on California Ave with colleagues, and it was a really pleasant experience. I ordered the Saag Paneer Thali, which included perfectly seasoned saag with cubes of soft paneer, dal, rice, naan, salad, and a little dessert , everything felt well-balanced and authentically cooked. To start, we had the Stuffed Mushrooms, the mushrooms were juicy and generously filled with a spiced, cheesy mixture that paired nicely with the mint chutney. We also tried the Corn Malai Tikki, which had a creamy, slightly sweet corn filling with a mild spice and crisp exterior delicious and light, yet satisfying. The staff was friendly and attentive, the ambiance calm but lively, and the overall meal felt like a really nice, mid-priced lunch spot. Would definitely come back for the thali and appetizers.

Great spot to have a good lunch with colleagues. We sat outside on a beautiful afternoon. The air was crisp and the service was warm. The menu is what you’d expect from a typical Indian restaurant - I went in for a lunch-friendly thali. It proved to be more than a lunch. The dal, curry and nan were delicious, so I took leftovers home. Lassi hit the spot. We had two appetizers - both were elegantly made, amazingly presented and very shareable.

The food was flavorful, well-spiced, and satisfying. Some dishes stood out more than others, but everything was well-executed and comforting. Service was a highlight—waiters were fast, friendly, and very attentive, making sure we had everything we needed without feeling rushed. This place is popular, though, so reservations are a good idea, especially during peak hours. The setting was warm and inviting, though it can get a bit crowded due to its popularity. Prices are reasonable for the quality, making it a great spot for a solid Indian meal. Would definitely come back, but next time, I’ll make sure to book ahead!
