Setting is wonderful, food is authentic and delicious! I got the chicken saag and it was just absolutely amazing. If I could recommend one thing it would be the onion naan, out of this world read more

Namaste Baltimore - Indian Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

I am OBSESSED with their Chicken Tikka Masala! The other day I try to be bold and go with a medium heat. It was perfect. Honestly, I've had it three times in the past month. Highly recommend!! The food is always consistent and delicious. Super friendly staff. read more

I'm 100% sure I've found my favorite Indian spot in Baltimore. I've only tried 3 places in total. The other 2 popular places shall remain nameless (they're on Charles St). They were okay but missing the authentic Indian flavors and spices I know and love. Namaste was pretty empty on the Thursday night we tried them out. Maybe only one other party dining in besides us, but endless pick-up orders. I think this place is a fan's favorite in the area. We were handed menus the minute we sat down, waters and papadum came within seconds. Score! We started with Chicken Momos (Nepalese chicken dumplings). Delicious! I've never had them before. In fact, I don't remember seeing them on the menu at other Indian restaurants I've tried. Do get them! My friend went with Chicken Tandoori. Yall *drool* by far some of the best I've ever eaten. Spices were there, char was there, tenderness was there, it lacked nothing. We (yes, it was my friend's dish), but we, ate it all right there. No leftovers to take home. I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala. Loved it, but it didn't stand a chance on the table next to that Chicken Tandoori. My chicken tikka marsala was moist, tender, and served poppin' hot. As others have mentioned, it did get a little dry. It wasn't when served, but the leftovers did dry out a bit. The flavors stayed - Score. We also ordered garlic naan. Who doesn't love garlic naan. The naan here tasted scrumptious but was paper thin. It was just as thin as papadum. Too thin for me. I'd pass next time. There is a bar, a few whiskeys, vodkas, and wines. No wine I recognized so we went with Maker's Mark with a splash of cranberry. They were served in tall glass, indeed with a splash of cranberry and a heavy pour. If they had happy hour I'd be there. 5-star review all around. Highly recommend. Highly suggested. I'm heading back soon for Chicken Tandoori and Chicken Curry. See you there! read more

Delicious and varied - many common Indian/Nepali dishes but also some choices I hadn't had before. Flavorful sauces. I recommend the fish curry and several appetizers. Attentive service, efficient kitchen - I was there recently with a group of 20 and they handled us very well. read more

We went to Namaste Baltimore for our graduation lunch and all the Nepali food were absolutely bussing. This is the best and authentic tasting Nepali food in Maryland. read more

Great food, nice atmosphere and friendly service. They do a great job for convenient and easy pickup as well. read more

This dinner was fantastic! I had enough leftovers from my dish to eat it for lunch and it was even better the next day. Sometimes it's hard to be adventurous with foreign desserts, but please do yourself a favor and order the gulab jamun if you've never had it. I had a boss from Gujarat who would make these delicious syrupy donut holes for the team on special occasions and holidays. I used to love eating hers and I've never found a recipe close to it - until Namaste! read more

I was phening for spice so I wanted to give this place a try.. The ambiance was warm, beautiful and elegant. The food was flavorful and tasty. I got the Lamb Saag and my brother got chicken tikka marsala..all meals come with rice.. The rice was fluffy and cooked to perfection.. They got crowded later in the evening but that didn't change the mood or hinder the service. My waitress was great..patient and attentive! read more

This is our go-to spot for Indian cuisine in Baltimore! The food is always fantastic, and the service is excellent. We recently hosted our daughter's 9th birthday meal at Namaste (her choice; this is her favorite place), and the staff made us all feel very warm and welcome. I highly recommend Namaste for dining in or carry out. It's always so good! read more

Namaste Baltimore - Our daughter's 9th birthday dinner at Namaste - Indian Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

Namaste Baltimore is my go-to for Indian Cuisine!!! There is no competition! The chicken is really good, tender with true flavors of India! The sauce is spot on with just the right spices to your liking and palate and taste! I like "medium spice". But it's all good, and not over spiced. NAMASTE BALTIMORE IS AUTHENTIC! They keep true to the entrée's form and the real way it's supposed to be cooked and prepared. Very generous portion size, just look at the amount of chicken you get in my posting picture! They're entire menu bursts with taste and authenticity! Also, if you want some late night Indian food, they are open until midnight as they have a bar called Alonso's next store that they give you your order from! You can't go wrong with Namaste Baltimore! BEST Indian I ever had, and I had plenty from coast to coast. Namaste Baltimore is the truth! ENJOY FOLKS!!! read more

Found this place with my coworkers, decent find! We wanted indian food near work and stumbled upon this. You'll find the typical briyani, eggplants, chick peas and others here. We got garlic naan, that's a must every time! Otherwise the typical stuff satisfied us. I do have to say the spicy chili sauce is spicy so don't overdo it! Parking is difficult in this area, it's street so know how to parallel park. Lastly it is on $$$ end, so come with a friend to share plates! read more

Went there last week with my family, Chilli chicken was really dry, burnt and with very little quantity, paneer tikka masala was okay, butter chicken had no taste, completely bland. Chicken momos were not as good as other places. Naans were not bad. Wouldn't recommend if you are looking for some good indian food. read more

I celebrated my 9th birthday at Namaste. My favorite dish is Tikka Masala. The staff was super duper nice, they even sang me happy birthday & brought me a special dessert! So, if you're looking for a special place to celebrate with awesome food, I would 100% recommend Namaste! Sabine (on my Aunt Wendy's phone) read more

We got delivery and the food was good! They give generous portions, and the dishes were all flavorful.

One of my favorite Indian restaurants in Baltimore and its metro area. I went back recently and noticed they've added some new items to their menu. I was really impressed with their "bullet naan". It was so spicy, which I really liked. I recommend it if you're someone who doesn't mind crying at bread. This time around I tried their masala chai. I'd never done it before, but I'm glad I did. I will probably continue to order it in future visits. A note: the portions are large enough to share, and the price reflects it. Despite sharing or not, the price also reflects the quality and flavors of the food. It's superior! Huge plus is that none of their food feels greasy or oily. I like the ambience; it's casual enough, but it can also translate for a nice dinner date. Despite having a crowd, it never feels loud in there. I don't know how. Maybe it's all the gulab jamun muffling the soundwaves. read more

Ok I would like to give 4.5 stars but i will round up because this place is CONSISTENTLY good in a city with a lot of bad food. I love the spicy vindaloo sauce. Love the garlic naan. Love the paneer dishes. Be careful, they make it spicy. If you ask for it extra hot you'll be crying in the restaurant! It recently got a little pricier but what hasn't? read more

Momos were delicious... would definitely eat here again!!!We ordered take out but would love to have the full dine in experience!

This place is reliably great; the staff was kind and generous with portions. I always get the lamb or goat biryani and the They're always fresh and flavorful. read more

We have been regulars at Namaste for several years, never been disappointed. Parking is easy (almost always available within a block on Roland Avenue), service is great and food is delicious! read more

If they had 10 stars this place would get a 10/10 from me!! This was my first time here and I absolutely LOVED everything!! From the appetizers to the main course to the delicious rice pudding dessert!! The service was excellent and ALL the workers were beyond respectful! Let alone the ambiance was beautiful - we came in the evening so the lights were dimmed and the music was so relaxing!! I would highly recommend this restaurant if you're looking for a good date to go on or you're looking just to take yourself out :):) 100% recommend read more

This place has great tasting food but really bad service =( I placed an order on their online website and called about 3 times inquiring about my order when it was an hour later and it hadn't been delivered. The lady said she would call me back in 5 minutes and then she did and said it was coming in 10 minutes. That should have been the end of that but then she called me back to say she confused my order with another order and then never called me back with the update. I called back twice and she said again she would call me back and then never did. It was beyond frustrating. Food finally showed up like much much later after I had given up and was going to ask for a refund via my credit card because I didn't want to deal with them again. Food was good but so not worth the frustration. read more

Just tried delivery from them. It was great! I would give more than 5 stars for their delivery service if I could. It arrived under 30 mins. I ordered goat biryani and mango lassi. Lassi was awesome! It was made with a lot of mango purée than the usual restaurant quality lassi. Biryani was different. The meat was well cooked and the rice was flavorful. It was very aromatic with curry leaves and whole cashews which you do not usually see in a traditional biryani. It didn't taste like a regular biryani. Well, there are literally hundreds of varieties of Indian biryanis, so cannot complain that this does not taste like one I am familiar with. Very satisfied with the overall experience! read more

Always consistent! This is our favorite Indian restaurant in Baltimore. Takeout is reliable and everyone is so pleasant!

I went here specifically for the Baltimore Briyani. I tried it and I did like it. I need to go back here and try a few more things. I called my order in on the phone and picked it up and it was ready when I arrived. read more

Ordered the butter chicken, momos and chai. The chicken was really overcooked so butter chicken sauce didn't really blend well with the texture. Just chewy chicken breasts soaked in sauce.Sauce pretty bland also. The Momos were OK nothing different from a typical dumpling. Pretty disappointed I had high hopes in this place because of the ratings. read more

Had a fantastic dining experience on Friday 10/11/24. Staff was exceptional to our needs and EVERYTHING was top notch and served with pride. Looking forward to returning soon! read more

Truly our favorite Indian food in all of Baltimore. The vast majority of our orders are takeout so please excuse the poor picture quality but this food is delicious and consistent every time and is priced right. Additionally the staff is always delightful to interact with. Couldn't recommend them more strongly. Note the extra wrapping on our chicken momo sauce to make sure it doesn't spill in the bag - just a nice little touch. read more

I've been getting takeout from Namaste for years now and I can say with confidence that is the most exceptional Indian food in Baltimore. Staples like chicken tikka masala are delicious and well seasoned. I've gotten both delivery and in person takeout and both were expedient and gracious. I will say the portion of rice given with entrees could be more generous but it is easily two meals. Great for a meal with a group served family style. Would go back again and again. read more

Newly gluten free and wanted to try a gluten friendly indian restaurant. This is place is great. They were very accommodating and friendly. The food is incredible. The saag paneer was wonderful. The chicken Tikka was just ok but that's just preference. Parking around back and plentiful! read more

Great friendly service! The lamb tikka masala was flavorful and tender! loved the garlic naan!

The servers were extremely attentive and kind! The food was extremely hot and well flavored . 10/10 would recommend

This was above average experience! We got chicken gourmet naan and naan stuffed with lamb which was ok. So if you're in the area and craving Indian food this may help you settle down your cravings read more

We had more takeout from Namaste Baltimore tonight. We ordered it with medium spice which was good but there were not enough depth and complexity flavors. We had mixed vegetable pakora,, aloo gobi cauliflower, goat curry, , baingan Bharta, , chicken saag, dal tadka, Naan and roti. . All the dishes were good. The dal tadka was bland, tasting mostly of lentils and water, but without additional layers of spices. Once again, the chicken saag was a star, bright green spinach chunks of chicken, and slivers of ginger. read more

I've never had a bad meal here, dine in or take out. Consistently delicious and fresh and hot! Really great to navigate with gluten and dairy allergies- lots of options!Recommend dining in too- quiet, nice, great and attentive service and great recommendations for what to order too! Just redid their menus and added a few new items and everything looks amazing. read more

Namaste Baltimore - Take out vegetable Pakora, Grand Tandoori Platter, Namaste Veg. Korma (Vegan) and Chicken Korma. 5 stars so delicious! - Indian Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

10/10! The food was incredible here! I catered from this restaurant for a university event almost a year ago. Their food was the highlight of everyone's night. I decided to visit today with my family, of which members came all the way from India. We really enjoyed the Aloo Jeera dish (with some extra spice lol) and the Mango Lassi! The staff was incredibly wonderful. Very service-orientated and attentive to all diners' needs. They gave us the cutest seating area for my family. Really felt like Little India in the restaurant. I will be bringing my friends here for dinner. The list is endless, no combination of words can truly express my gratitude and love for the restaurant. read more

Namaste Baltimore knows how to treat its customers! The customer service and food were almost too good to be true. I visited with a large group hosting a farewell dinner for my father who loves Indian food - we were treated quite well and feasted like royalty on many of their vegetarian and seafood dishes. Just about anything on the menu was excellent, I had the salmon tikka which was immaculately seasoned and came out sizzling on a mini barbecue. Delicious indeed. The owner treated us to every naan offered on the menu but my favorite was the sweet naan which was toasted with currants. The adults were too full for dessert but the owner treated the kids w homemade vanilla ice cream and mango lassis. I would certainly return dining at Namaste for another group dinner or quiet dinner alike. They also offer carry out as well and I wouldn't be opposed to that either. read more

Namaste Baltimore - Indian Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

Now I'm a fan of good Indian cuisine, but this may be one of my favorite places, at the moment. I was actually planning on ordering from another spot but they happened to be closed. I saw the positive reviews and decide to give 'Namaste' a try. I ordered through Yelp/Grub Hub and the process was seamless. We decided to try the following: 1) GARLIC NAAN - Leavened wheat bread baked in a tandoor oven. Delicious. buttery/olive oiled goodness w/ actual pieces of diced garlic on top. Truly a fantastic accompaniment to the meal. SCORE! 2) VEGETABLE SAMOSAS - Traditional Indian deep-fried pastries stuffed with potatoes, peas and light spices. Two per order. How can you NOT love a good samosa. These certainly did not disappoint. Samosas can have a tendency to be too oily but these were perfect. Crisp & flaky on the outside and fluffy inside. SCORE! 3) MULLIGATAWNY SOUP - Vegetable broth and lentils with special Indian spices. This was an okay dish. Everything had so much flavor and this soup simply did not. It wasn't bad, by any means. It just didn't have the aromatic hand all the other dishes had. 4) VEGETABLE KORMA - Mixed vegetables cooked with onions and tomatoes in a creamy cashew sauce. This comes in: mild, medium, hot. I chose 'mild'. Now, THIS was a standout FAVORITE! The flavor profile was amazing. True deliciousness! I will be ordering this again in the near future. It comes w/ basmati rice and yummy yumm yumm in my tummy tum tum. 5) VEGETABLE BIRYANI - Long grain aromatic basmati rice cooked with mixed vegetables. Flavored with Indian herbs and spices, saffron, nuts and raisins. This dish also comes in: mild, medium, hot. I chose 'mild'. What I got was FIRE!!!! One spoonful and it was a wrap for me. I called the restaurant and told them and they apologized and IMMEDIATELY made this in the mild version. I went to pick it up. Absolutely delicious!!!! As an aside, the restaurant itself, is really quite beautiful. the lanterns all over were a really nice touch. The staff was incredibly polite/ professional. I will be adding this to my list of spots to hit up for sit-in dinner. read more

Watch out for clear deception on web sight/ phone and in person. They are store lunch specials. There is no such thing and when you clarify that is what you wish for pick up delivery upon picking up its magically a full price order. These people are liars When I questioned the "lunch special price" at register. The woman said they have no such thing ( even though it's on their website) I said a young man took order. She called him over and he too said there is no such thing. I reminded him of our phone convo and he said "no such". Terrible. Deceptions. read more

I just ordered delivery from Namaste for lunch, and overall had a positive experience! I ordered the Chicken Vindaloo (requested extra spicy), which was very flavorful, definitely had a kick, and was generous in terms of portion size. My only qualm was that the rice was a bit dry. The delivery fee was only $1, and the food came in a timely manner. Overall, would consider ordering again! read more

Good food, good service. A go-to for me in the area, absolutely no complaints. Give it a try!
