Namaste India - Ottawa

I absolutely adore this quaint family-owned restaurant. The food is cooked to perfection and incredibly delicious. Although there are only a few tables, the waiter is very attentive and friendly. The only downside is the limited parking, located at the back down a small lane. Please note that there is a single step into the dining area.

This is has to be my favourite Indian restaurant in Ottawa! Or at least the one with the creamiest butter chicken. I've been here several times with friends and family' and every time is as good as the last. The service is excellent and I love that they bring a warming tray to keep your food warm as you eat. Only downside is that they do not accept debit (cash or credit only! . Overall an excellent dining experience.

Best Indian food in Ottawa!. Small location that gets packed often which tells you how good the food is! They are often short staffed and cannot keep up with the rush, so I recommend doing takeout if you don't want to wait long.<br/ <br/ For appetizers, I recommend the onion bhaji and the prawn puri. I wouldn't recommend the shammi kabab.<br/ <br/ For entrees, I recommend the chicken tikka, shrimp methi gosht, and chicken biriyani.

I love this place! Best prawn puri ever and the garlic naan is phenomenal. I've tried a lot of their curries. My favourite is the vindaloo, but the madras is great too. Highly recommend!

Amazing!. I had such a great experience here with both the food and the service! The restaurant was small, but I thought it was charming. We had the platter for two (which included the tandoori chicken, lamb, naan, and others) along with the butter chicken. The platter was delicious, but what blew me away was the butter chicken dish. It was so good we ordered a second to take home. It tasted exactly as a butter chicken should not spicy but had great flavour. Our waitress was very nice, we chatted with her a bit and found out this is her family's restaurant, with her father as the chef. Super nice family with delicious and authentic food. Doesn't get much better than that! I can't wait to go back and try their other dishes.
