When you enter Namaste, you'll find yourself transported into a quiet, serene environment, where eating is elevated into an art. This Alexandria restaurant serves pan-Asian cuisine, though it specializes in Indian and Nepalese dishes.
Many of the dishes require several hours of gentle simmering to reach the ideal flavor, and most employ custom spice blends that have to be added in precise amounts. You'll find rich chicken tikka masala simmered in a creamy tomato sauce, as well as fiery lamb vindaloo with potatoes and peas. You can also snack on unique finger foods, like peanuts that have been marinated in chopped tomato, onion, cilantro, and a custom blend of Nepalese spices, or bite into a Nepali-style dumpling filled with spiced, minced vegetables and served with a chutney dipping sauce.
If you're unsure about what to order, try going for the lunch buffet, where you can sample a variety of different dishes in order to hone in on your favorite.
