Namaste Indian Cuisine

Butter Chicken

Rich, tomato-cream sauce with a balanced spice profile that doesn't tip sweet — among the better versions in the South Bay

Dal Makhani

Slow-cooked black lentils with a smoky, buttery depth that takes hours to build — the kind of dal that makes you rethink ordering meat

Garlic Naan

Blistered and pillowy from the tandoor, with enough garlic to actually taste it without overwhelming the bread

Saag Paneer

Fresh-tasting spinach base with firm, non-rubbery paneer — a reliable benchmark dish the kitchen handles confidently

Chicken Tikka Masala

Slightly lighter and more tomato-forward than the butter chicken, with tender tandoor-charred chicken chunks throughout

Samosa

Crisp fried pastry with a well-seasoned potato and pea filling — a solid starter that doesn't feel like an obligation

Lamb Rogan Josh

Kashmiri-style braised lamb with deep aromatic spice — the lamb is tender and the sauce has good complexity

Mango Lassi

Thick, sweet, and cooling — the right foil to spicier dishes, made with real mango rather than syrup
