“ I have been wanting some indian food so we drove here for lunch today. Not too busy. Food was good and had an overall pleasant experience. ”
“ It was very good! I enjoyed this very much and as I am writing this I am eating yummy butter chicken . It is amazing I recommend it. ”
“ Very friendly customer service and an excellent selection for their lunch and dinner buffet. The desert section small but delicious and there is a small salad bar with sauces for the buffet. Convenient layout in the restaurant and nice decorations. We will be back! ”
“ Was trying to think of somewhere kid friendly to dine-in that was moderately healthy for a family dinner. So happy I thought of Namaste, I order takeout delivery from here when I’m craving veggie korma, but haven’t had their buffet in ages. We came on a Tuesday night and the woman working was so kind and welcoming. We called ahead to see if they had highchairs and a kids buffet and they had both. The food is delicious with so many kid friendly choices. They were kind and welcoming to my kiddos even the toddler that didn't want to stay seated. My daughter loved all the food she tried and was so thrilled to have mango ice cream cone included at the end of her tasty meal. We took a nice walk around the block a few times to finish our ice cream, enjoy the neighborhood and get some steps in ;) The service really made this standout as a wonderful night. We will be adding this place to our kid friendly rotation. ”
“ For the 14 price for the lunch buffet, it's good. Fountain drink, fresh salad bar, and soft serve ice cream is included. Was in Portland for work for a couple of weeks. It's located near my hotel and parking nearby is available. Fresh food and clean restaurant. Love the chicken curry and the Mango soft serve is a must. Even brought my brother here for lunch and he enjoyed it. They had a good flow of dine-in, carry-out, and online orders from what I saw. Very good for the price. Highly recommend to family and friends! ”
“ Great! Super super filling 20 dollars each and it was all good food. The korma was good and my cousin liked it. And I liked the butter chicken. ”
“ Amazing food and Great service! Fresh warm garlic naan was even brought to our table since the buffet was almost out, so nice! Don't skip the mango soft serve ice cream. Yum! ”
“ This place is BOOOMB! I tried it once and I can't stop going back. Big huge naans, the goat, the chicken, the curry, ALL spectacular. They have great to go, ( fix yourself, I fill mine UP), dine in, and deliver options. I love this place. And they're nice! ”
