We love this restaurant. The flavors of the dishes are so spot on. I love that I can order my kiddos the Butter chicken with no heat, And order mine (whatever I choose on any given night) spiced up a bit more! Yummm! The naan, chutney, pickle and raita make me so happy. My favorite thing ever is the Samosas!!! I could eat them solo and be content! I'm always happy with the customer service. They go out of their way to make sure we love our food. Including allowing us to order to our own taste preferences. We are so lucky to have this gem in Greenfield! read more

I ordered tofu and they gave me beef and when I called back, they acted like they couldn't understand me. Really expensive for me not to be able to eat anything. I was just driving through so I wasn't gonna go back. read more

Flavors are incredible. I also didn't find the food to be overly salty. I mean, it's restaurant food so it's still saltier than prob most home made food but it wasn't so salty where all you taste is salt. The salt was just enough to bring the flavors out. Best Indian we've ever had! Will definitely be coming back. read more

Nice solid good quality Indian food. Ordered pickup. It was ready on time and the value was good. Only one experience so far. Solidly 4 stars. That might increase if I get more experience and can sample more offerings. read more

This place is great! Been here twice and the first time blew my mind! Aloo Gobi is my go to and it didn't disappointment but it was my friends Palak Paneer that was the standout. I've never had it as good as here! Went back a month later and ordered it again and it was very good but not as amazing as the first time. I will keep going back, delicious food, reasonable prices, can't go wrong! read more

This place was ok. The hit my hot spice mark, and the garlic naan was good. However, it was missing something on the depth of flavor. My last item was the chai tea, there was something wrong with this and something not so pleasant at the bottom of the drink. read more

It just so happened we traveled to this area to see about adopting a dog at New 2 You dog rescue. While we were mulling over the idea of expanding our family, we decided to think it over while having a lunch in town. That is how we found Namaste. Online, the items looked pretty promising, so we decided to give them a try. The waitress tried to steer us to the lunch buffet, but we wanted to order off the main menu which seemed to make her unhappy. We started with a soda and a cup of chai while we looked over the menu. We decided to try the Malai Kofta and the Veggie Tikka Masala, with a side of basmati rice and the seasonal special garlic chive naan. The food took a surprisingly long time to be made, and nobody came by with updated timelines or to explain why the wait was so lengthy. While we were there, there were only two other tables, so I know the wait wasn't because they were slammed with people. Once the food finally arrived, we were immediately disappointed. The curries were both tepid, and the flavors were flat and boring. There was no heat, no spice, no salt and overall no real flavor. The rice was fluffy, but that's the only positive about it, and the naan was very colorful, but was really lacking in texture. The chai however was pretty good, but how really can you mess up sweetened tea? If that wasn't the worst part, once we were on our way home, we both started feeling sick to our stomachs. It was a three hour car ride home to Aquidneck area, and we had to pull over multiple times because one or both of us felt like we were going to be rapidly ill. Definitely not the experience you want after eating a very underwhelming meal. Price was fine for the portion size, food was not good due to lacking flavor and spice, service was inattentive, and getting sick after eating was definitely a downside. Ambiance was fine, but nothing really that amazing, and parking was limited due to being on a thoroughfare and accessing it during the lunch rush was a bit of a headache. Overall, it has a lot of room to improve, but after an experience like what we had, I would not return. read more

Loved our take out - really enjoyed all the different dishes we tried. Great flavors And spices. In addition- delicious Naan, samosas, and raita. So happy to have this little gem in Greenfield! read more

Wonderful saag and samosas. Nice atmosphere, quick and friendly service generous portions.

Everything we ordered was delicious. The dishes had distinctive flavors and varied ingredients. Our server, Yug, was friendly and efficient. I recommend this place without hesitation read more

Food was okay here, not bad but not super flavorful. Maybe the spice is dialed down for the locals. I tried the saag paneer and it was pretty bland. The garlic cilantro naan was a standout tho. read more

The food is always good at Namaste, however, the service was very weird today. I went with 3 others and we were seated (fortunately in front of a fan because it was really hot inside the restaurant). There were only 2 other parties in the restaurant. We sat and waited 20+ min to order food. The server kept telling us "on more second" and staples some menus to bags, packed a bag of food, and other tasks that should typically be prioritized AFTER serving the customers inside the restaurant. When he finally came over, he said "you ready?" And we said yes, then looked at each other to see who would go first. We sat silent for another 5 or so seconds before he said "I'm busy, are you ready or not?" In a very irritated tone. We all just looked at each other and then gave him our orders. It wasn't busy in there. There's wasn't a lot going on, but even if there was, he made us feel like we were an inconvenience for dining at the restaurant. It was very bizarre. Most restaurants treat guests who are actively in the restaurant as priority, not an inconvenience. Very uncomfortable. The rating is 3 star because the food is still really good. The service was not. read more

To be fair, I've not been here for anything but the lunch buffet... Which is really nice. I *LOVE* Indian buffets. Some are def better than others. (If you're looking for the best buffet, this isn't it.) But this is a solid buffet, and the staff is REALLY nice. One of my coworkers LOVES their Chicken Chili (which is a fantastic dish. I finally got to have some on Friday, as it was on the buffet.) He was so praiseful about it, that the restaurant brings him a plate of it every time he comes in, even if it's not on the buffet now. (The owner even texted him that it was on the buffet this Friday, but my coworker had taken the day off.) The space is nice. It's been an Indian restaurant in it's last couple incarnations. They have silverware, and table cloths. It feels like it would dress up nice for a dinner date situation. There is a bar, but it doesn't seem to get used much. (Certainly not during the lunch buffet.) The favors are good. The staff is very nice, and the space is well maintained, and clean. The buffet is a bit over $10, but it's kept well stocked and runs a good long while. (It's still kept up after 1:30, when another coworker and I usually go.) There is usually Naan, pakora, several vegetable dishes, chicken tiki masala, and tandoori chicken. The vegetable dishes rotate, and there is sometimes another meat. Sadly, the dessert is the place I would ding them the most. It's usually a small metal bowl of kheer in a bowl of ice. The last time it was somewhat congealed. I'm sure that I will be back here, many, many times. Oh, yes. They are closed on Mondays. Adjust your plans! read more

Namaste - The Chili Chicken, some Pakora, and some Chicken Tiki Masala. - Indian Near Me - Greenfield, Massachusetts

The dining choices are limited in Greenfield due to Covid. My colleague and I decided to try carry out from Namaste. We were impressed at the flavor and freshness of the food. The serving sizes allowed for a late night reheat and it was still very good. I'm pretty sure this would have been a 5 star rating if we were able to dine in straight from the kitchen, but I applaud the local business for being safe rather than sorry. Highly recommend! read more

5/5 across the board. Just give them a shot, you won't be disappointed. The vindaloo is always a treat and there CTM is out of this world. There rice pudding is exemplary. Don't gorge yourself! read more

Love, love, love this place. The food is delicious and they are quick. It would be nice if it went back to inside eating too but they continue to be pick up or delivery. read more

I don't bother with reviews too often but this place is just plain phenomenal. Some of the best Indian cuisine we've had in a very long time. If you're thinking about this place, just go for it. For real. Manchurian Shrimp was off the charts tasty. Pakora were just popping. Vindaloo wasn't too spicy even though I ordered hot, but I expect you can simply ask for a bit more heat if you're into that. Chicken Tikka Masala was just heavenly. Saag paneer was spot on. Can't say enough about the classics and can't wait to go back and hit more of the menu. read more

So excited to have Indian food in Greenfield now and this place does not disappoint! I order regularly online too and online orders are discounted 10%! Great staff and owners add to the pleasure of supporting this business. You can't keep me away from their amazing breads, tandoori chicken, butter chicken, curry shrimp & curry lamb, raita and samosa chat, but everything is delicious! read more

Omg omg ! The best by far! Portion sizes are amazing. Food cooked to order in an impressive amount of time. They just renovated and are opening a bar. Greenfield has never seen anything like this before . Kudos to the food staff and experience. Recommend for date night, kid friendly or just a few drinks. A++++ read more

Namaste - Elegant table for 2 window seat. Felt like we had a personal server - Indian Near Me - Greenfield, Massachusetts

Myself and three other people walked in and were told they weren't doing dine-ins, but the waitress, Diana, allowed us to sit. She was very accommodating and very sweet! Other people came in, and she was just as kind and accommodating to them as well. The food came out and it smelled SO GOOD The food was so amazing. I got the garlic chive naan and chicken tikka kebab. The BEST Indian food I have ever had Please support this place so they can open their doors to dining! read more

Surprisingly awesome Indian food for Greenfield of all places, better than most I have had in various cities across the US. Some of the best Naan I have had in a long time and the Saag was just perfect and don't forget the mango lassi! Only giving 4 stars because they are still only take out which annoys the hell out of me. As soon as they open in person dining I will be back there immediately. read more

Been wanting to come to this restaurant a long time. When I finally got the chance to visit, there were no signs on the door, but they apparently only serve take out. The employee sitting in the back chit-chatting couldn't even bother to stand up and talk to me or give me a menu to order take out. With that kind of reception, I guess I won't be coming back no matter how good the reviews are. read more

Great service and unique flavors. Momo must try! Lamb madras flavorful get it spicy. Goat korma was creamy. Roti was perfectly cooked as well as rice. The tofu biryani is different flavors but must try. read more

Really delicious! I always order the Paneer Tikka Masala (without bell peppers, which I recommend, because they have a really strong taste that takes over the masala). It's always flavorful, warm, and because I have only ordered delivery, timely! The naan is good, the mango lassi are delicious, the rice is flavorful and never crunchy or undercooked. I've heard some negative stuff by word of mouth about this place, but I think all restaurants have their hit or miss days. We cannot always expect perfection! I'm glad I gave them a try despite other peoples opinions. I'm moving to Greenfield soon and am pleased I'll be closer to such a delicious restaurant! read more

This is coming from someone who, prepandemic, frequently made trips to Jackson heights just for the food. And maybe it's because I've been cooking for a year straight with few interruptions but that was possibly the most orgasmic meal of my life. It was absolutely perfect. I'm not kidding: I took one bite and I was legitimately surprised that anything could taste satisfying let alone half hour old Indian takeout from nowhere Massachusetts. To the fine people risking so much to make that meal. I've befriended my fair share of food service workers. It can be thankless. Know this: you just provided the high point of my month. Thank you so so so much. Wow! read more

I'm still sitting at the table after eating one of the most spicy and delicious meals I've ever had. The lamb madras, the pakoras, and the samosas were so amazing. Our waiter was super kind and fun, definitely knew that we were gonna be humbled by the level of spice we ordered. read more

Some of the best Indian food I've ever had and we live in DC, NYC and San Diego prior to moving here for our son's school. The korma is to die for. So good! I order delivery at least three times a month. read more

So glad I tried Namaste! I had the Vegetable Samosas, Paneer Tikka Masala, and Garlic Chive Naan. Will definitely be ordering again.

What a treat! Ordered to go- the tikka masala and aloo gobhi were both fantastic. The naan and raita were excellent. Can't wait to go back and try more dishes. So great to have this treasure in Greenfield!!! The read more

I rarely ever write any review but this felt like a community service by warning people. First of all I am from SE Asia and grew up eating this food. Namaste is a shameful experience when it comes to living up to the true taste and flavors of Indian and Nepali dishes. I agree with one of the reviewer "leah" the dishes were tepid, and the flavors were flat and boring. There was no heat, no spice, no salt and overall no REAL flavor. The naan was the only thing decent rest of the food was complete travesty. The palak paneer was creamy but that is where the adjectives end. The gravy was creamy in terms of consistency but true aroma and taste not there. The palak flavor was not there, it felt like it was made beforehand and they just warmed it up and put it in a box. Daal Makhani was the worst! Felt like a mixed daal combination thrown together with salt and some random curry powder and then cooked until the daal became soft. Daal makahni is a dish that needs no others, it is a meal on its own when cooked properly. Truly sad. Chicken 65 felt like frozen nuggets being covered with sweet and sour curry sauce. Original chickens 65 is a dish where marinated chicken is deep fried and then the chicken is cooked again with a separate gravy but it still remains dry in nature and the fried curry leaves flavors are there. This is one of the signature dish and I always try to find places that would serve it!! THIS WAS NOT IT. I am a genuine foodie and have eaten cuisines from around the world. My roommates were from both India and Nepal, so I know the real taste. I also know how to cook curry dishes and I can tell when no effort was taken to prepare a meal and moreover the Oriental Label "Namaste" being used to deceive people who have never tried true Nepali and Indian dishes. If a restaurant truly is authentic and tries its best to serve what it promises then I praise it but this experience was so bad that I wanted to warn people before wasting their time and money. read more

It's important to note, as I do with any review of an Indian restaurant in Western Mass, that we do not make good Indian food around here. Most of the food served at other restaurants is pre-packaged fusion cuisine or just not like an auntie would make at all. This place is different. This is the turning tide of Indian food in Western Massachusetts. Let's start with the chai. Most places do a pretty okay rendition of chai - with all of the appropriate spices and flavors that one would expect. Namaste does you one better though. It's a real, cooked milk chai. You can taste that they heat the milk up with the chai and use fresh spices. The proof is in the delicate skin that forms on top if you wait too long for your drink to cool. Drink the skin- it's the best. The samosas are pretty standard samosas (that is to say, most places make good samosas anyway). The hara and imli chutney that comes with it is some of the best I've had, though. This makes the samosas fantastic. The Ragda Patti is something unique to Namaste (for now at least). It's kind of like a papdi chaat with some ingredient changes. FRESH chickpeas (not canned or dried) are served seasoned and cold with potato balls and a topping of imli chutney, raita, and sev (crunchy chickpea noodles). Throw on some tomatoes and onions and you have a hefty starter that isn't too overwhelming and won't ruin your meal. The chole bhatura was excellent. I typically don't finish my bhatura when I order this, but I did in this case. The chole was expertly seasoned without the random nuts, pomegranate seeds, or raisins of other restaurants around here. The chickpeas are fresh, just like the Ragda Patti. Rip off a piece of bhatura, put some chole on it, and if you're smart- you'll throw a bit of yogurt raita on there too. We also ordered shrimp Manchurian. There are not a lot of restaurants that offer Indo-Chinese food, so when you see it you have to snatch it up. The Manchurian sauce was spicy and perfect. We will probably try the chicken or veg next time. The gajar ki halwa (carrot halwa) was AMAZING. I've never seen a restaurant use fresh carrots like this without cooking them forever into a soggy puddle mixed with sugar. These fresh carrots were still firm and tasted like carrots. You could taste the cardamom pod, butter, and milk individually. Will definitely order this again. As for the service- there was a negative review recently. I don't think that it is accurate, and the writer should go back. Our waiter was attentive, and even offered us some samples so that we could determine what to order next time. He was talkative, but not overly so, and answered all of my oddly specific questions. Also the restaurant is CLEAN. Not to say other restaurants aren't...but after walking to the bathroom, I looked into the kitchen which had just gone through dinner service and everything was sparkling steel. read more

My little brother is Vegan so it tends to be tough to find a place where we can both get good food from, but Namaste delivered! Everything was delicious & the woman on the phone was very helpful too. With everything going on in the world right now it's nice to still have take out from local favorites for comfort food, so thanks for pushing through this difficult time. Getting hungry right now just thinking about the food here, so might have to make another order! lol read more

We love Namaste. We have been ordering takeout from here about once a week for months. The food is hot, flavorful and filling. My partner likes the chicken Tikka (his go to) and the chili chicken over rice. I tend to go veg here and really enjoy their take on saag paneer, as well as tofu Korma or madras. I also like the paneer jalfrezie. We also nearly always get the vegetable samosas plus a side of Naan or paratha. Honestly I've enjoyed everything I have gotten! When they served momos I liked those too. The delivery is speedy too. One piece of advice....if you say very spicy, be prepared for it to be almost too spicy. I often order medium spicy, but wish there was a 6/10 option. read more

Went this past weekend. The food is excellent everything we tried was delicious. Very friendly and clean. We will be back. The Public Market is great there is such and assortment of differnt foods to try. You must go. read more

Ordered mild version of chicken tikka masala. My mouth and lips are burning so much it's hard to taste anything. I find the prices high for what I received. The garlic cilantro naan is delicious. Will not return. read more

We visited Namaste last night for dinner and could not have been happier with our meal or the service. We had heard good things, but had yet to try this spot since our move to Greenfield - we were not disappointed. Started with garlic and chive naan and veggie samosas which were both hot, delicious, and authentic. I had the veggie korma and my husband had the chicken masala. The veggie korma was as good as any I have had in the US or abroad. The chicken dish was very good, but we both liked the korma better. I will definitely try the goat next time as I found out that it and most of the menu items are locally sourced! Service was excellent and the owner even came by to talk to us about new menu items coming this summer. It was a great meal an experience! We are so lucky to have such great international options right here in Greenfield. If you haven't been to Namaste, I urge you to check it out! read more

Very busy Saturday night; we were seated promptly and politely, and given a menu. Reservations are available and would recommend them if going on Saturday evening. Ordered veg pakora and bhindi masala, naan...and my dinner date went with chicken nuggets and fries. Seasoning was well done and balanced in the bhindi, similar to what I make at home. Basmati rice was well cooked and seasoned. The pakora was so good that even an American ten year old with a limited palate enjoyed them. She also enjoyed the naan a great deal. I hope to visit at least once more during my vacation. Pleased to see Indian flavors in Greenfield - it's a gap that had long needed to be filled! read more
