Five Stars! Our weekly visit repeat. We enjoy everything on the menu! We have literally tried it all! Tonight we had chicken saag and vegetarian fried rice. Their curries are are delicious, Meat is tender and sometimes I get extra protein (more meat) because it’s so good. Parathas are sooo good! My favorites on the menu include: Malai chicken kabob (appetizer), Gobi paratha, Lamb curry, chicken pasanda and many more. Come support this hidden gem! I Absolutely love this restaurant!!! We come here once a week because the food is soooo good. We meet many people who come here often since we found Cafe Namasthe 10 months ago. If you can plan ahead, call them if you want Biryani. This takes time to make. I also love their kheer (rice pudding) so call the day before if you want that special desert. I love that they have both northern and southern dishes from India. We have tried everything and love it! Take out and dine in. These guys should be packed. The food is very good and you won’t pay the high price like the fancier Indian restaurants. It’s casual open dining, they make their food from scratch and it’s fresh and very good. The staff even let me try a special order. Good value for the food, enjoy each time trying new entrees. If you like vegetarian, they have great options as well. Thank you! Thank you! For wonderful food. We are addicted. We had Chicken Pasanda for the 4th time and appetizer Malai Chicken Kabob again, amazing!
Amazing food, the chicken was cooked perfectly and the spice levels were very accurate. The peshwari naan was one of our favorites! The atmosphere was super nice and the workers were very kind. Couldn’t recommend more!
Had an incredible dining experience at cafe Namasthe! From the moment I walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere set the perfect tone for the evening. The service was outstanding—attentive, friendly, and truly welcoming. The staff went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed, offering great recommendations and making us feel at home. And of course, the food was absolutely delicious! Every dish was packed with rich, authentic flavors, perfectly spiced, and beautifully presented. From the fresh naan to the flavorful curries, everything was top-notch. If you’re looking for a place with amazing service, a fantastic atmosphere, and incredible Indian cuisine, this is it. Highly recommended
Wow! This place is spotless and so tasty! I was impressed with flavor and how fresh it tasted! If you want a freshly cooked meal in a shopping area full of fast food this is the place! Owned by a husband and wife team they make it such a great place to eat!
Surprisingly good for an Indian joint in a strip mall. I had the chicken korma with peshwari naan. It was a little light on the chicken, but very good flavor and I was there for lunch anyway so it was good. The naan was also good. Super casual. Your food comes in plastic ware, but I'll go back.
Chicken Korma was AMAZING! I'm usually scared to get anything other than mild at Indian restaurants, but I think I should've gone with medium!! Still SO good and had some great flavor and spice. And the Butter Paan... Mmmmm.... The best to dip with.
What a delightful surprise. We'd heard good things about this restaurant. The good things are true. The food was incredible, service excellent, and a divine dining experience. I love lots of flavor and this did not disappoint. We selected a variety of eating options and enjoyed all of them. The rosewater dessert was a 'give it a try' choice. My wife and daughter loved it. I liked it well enough, although I did find it just a little sweet. This is a place that I will return to for additional culinary experiences.
We have come several times. We like getting Indian food across Utah county. Cafe Namasthe is for sure the fastest service and very high quality. The butter chicken and chicken korma are both the perfect comfort food. You get large portions and definitely don’t leave hungry. Our most recent time we both ordered mild, one came out medium, which we didn’t realize until after already putting half the container on our plate of rice and eating a few bites. (Medium was a LOT hotter than mild for us). When we went to ask about it they were very quick to replace it. They gave us another full container of rice and mild butter chicken. They even went and grabbed one of their cold creamy rice desserts, rice kheer, to let us eat while eating the plate of medium (I didn’t want to waste it.) In the end the medium butter chicken was really good but I was very grateful for the dessert to help with the heat. The dessert was really good, I highly recommend it! I wasn’t planning to try it but I’m glad I got it!
