Super clean inside. Pleasant waiters, and consistent on always checking on customers. Always refilling water. Even taking away dishes. They don't wait last minute. I really like their service!

Loved this place!! Servers were very nice. We got the pani puri, lamb vindaloo, and tadka saag…read more The pani puri came with 6 pieces and was a fun crunchy and soft appetizer. Slightly expensive in my opinion. The lamb vindaloo was so good. I am typically not a fan of lamb as I am nervous that it will taste gamey. However, this was perfectly seasoned and had no gamey taste. You are also able to adjust the spice to your tolerance level and we got mild. Although the waiter suggested medium spice for optimal flavor. We wanted to make sure everyone in our party could eat it and enjoy, so they gave us extra spice on the side. The tadka saag was a spinach curry with a splash or cream. We got it with chicken. This was my favorite curry. Very creamy and silky which was similar to the base of palak paneer. We paired all of these with their garlic naan which was the perfect addition. Although on the pricy side, I will be back again for more.

She said they'd glady accept us walking in by 8:30pm since they close at 9. Asked if we dined with them before just incase we needed recommendations which we did not.

This was such a great! experience. This location is a first come, first serve, "once all…read moreingredients are used we close" location. Seating is limited but they do accept reservations. The portions are very large and each entree is enough to share. In my personal opinion, two entree choices are enough for a family of 4! The service was fantastic and extremely pleasant to be around. They were very helpful when trying to decide on dishes and drinks. They were kind and it seemed that everyone who was available was helping out! The dining space is very fun, with a colorful interior and lively atmosphere. Everyone is close together due to the small space, but that just makes it feel like a community' or family event.

Shareable portions. Great way to try a few different dishes if you're dining with friends. We tried the chicken momo, veg samosa, chicken curry, chicken saag, lamb rogan josh and extra garlic naan of course. I thought the rogan josh was fantastic (and the best dish we had), but my friend said they prefer Cafe Maharani's version better. To each their own. Reasonable prices. Friendly and attentive service. Note: There is a 70 minute time limit for dining. Another note: Narrow driveway and tight shared parking in the back. Not the place to bring your Cadillac Escalade. Street parking might be a better option.

While vacationing in Honolulu, we were craving Indian food and decided to try Namaste Indian and…read moreNepalese Cuisine, thanks to its strong Yelp reviews and convenient location near Waikiki Beach--and it absolutely lived up to the hype. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted warmly and seated right away. We were offered water promptly, and what really stood out was that the owner herself came over to take our order. She was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable. Instead of the usual dishes we order at Indian restaurants, she encouraged us to try something different--and confidently assured us we wouldn't be disappointed. She was right. Every dish we ordered was flavorful, well-balanced, and clearly made with care. The food exceeded our expectations, and the overall experience--from service to atmosphere--was excellent. If we're in Honolulu and craving Indian food again, this will definitely be our go-to spot. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Waikiki and looking for authentic, delicious Indian and Nepalese cuisine Pro tip: Trust the owner's recommendations--you'll be glad you did!

It originally opened as more of an Indian street food restaurant, but have since expanded to other dishes. It's a casual and convenient opening in 808 Center if you're nearby, on the first floor along the street. They have two tables outside and more inside, it's a simple place. They have a varied menu of Indian street foods like momo, roti, and dosa, plus curries, other breads, drinks, and rice dishes. We tried mostly vegetarian items like cauliflower in yellow curry, a daal dish, and veggie mom. The food is flavorful, curries include jasmine rice. Prices are reasonable for the size. It's worth stopping in if you're a fan of Indian food, or looking for something new and flavorful to try.
