I really loved all the food served.The food was Soulful, tasteful and delightful which made me quite full.I really loved the idly Vada Sambhar. I really dig the Malai Chicken they served simply mind blowing. The karahi goat was splendid, simple yet very balanced taste of spice and flavours which bowled over my palate.I guess one the very best Indian restaurants I've had food here in Adelaide. It's a hidden gem, coz it's not in the city.I would also rate the Dosa/ south Indian much higher than Chatkaz (very blend and tasteless; overhyped). I really liked the South Indian food here although I am not sure it's a South Indian restaurant. The menu is very wide and serves North Indian, South Indian and Indo Chinese delicacies.I am delighted and will surely come back for more.

We had a great experience at Namaste Restaurant. The food was delicious and full of flavor. The menu is long, with many options, including vegetarian dishes, chicken, and goat meat. There is something for everyone.The restaurant is big and does not feel crowded, even when it is busy. The service was excellent. Two friendly ladies served our food and checked on us often to make sure we were happy. They brought out dishes one at a time, as requested, so no one had to wait too long for their food.The atmosphere was nice, with Indian music playing in the background. It added to the experience of enjoying authentic Southeast Indian food. The staff also asked if we had any suggestions, which was thoughtful.The prices were reasonable, and the food was worth every dollar. Namaste Restaurant is a great place to enjoy tasty food and excellent service.
