Dang this food was great. My friend and I came to visit and trust me her and her boyfriend have high standards for food (I don't trust some of her decisions and choices) At first you are greeted by a beautiful girl in the front with a pretty smile. And then she recommends the Chicken Tikka Masala was amazing. I've been to India before and this food reminds me of the time I spent in India. Very good. It's a small place but is big in flavor. The Naan was really good and paired well with the food. I tried the chicken curry and that was great as well but I'm telling you the Chicken Tikka Masala was awesome. I can tell you I will definitely be ordering it again soon. I just finished my food told them I'm leaving a 5 star review and yet I'm already craving it. I can't wait to have it again. read more

Great Indian food for the price. I like the chicken curry. The spicy chicken marsala isn't spicy enough for my husband, but we both loved the freshly baked garlic naan bread. The people seem kind and hard working. It's a small, authentic, efficient, Indian take out. Great for a curry in a hurry. They sometimes serve more authentic dishes like goat. It seems more Nepalese? read more

It's a good spot to get quick meal, I love that they have the combo option so I can pick 2 or more options. The service is quick every time I been there. The restaurant is small I usually take my food to go, feels very crowded in there sometimes. read more

There were limited options for the combo plates. The food flavors were okay. I tried the tikka masala, garlic naan, tandoori, and saag paneer. The tikka masala was better than the other options. Some of the food was lukewarm and seemed to just be sitting there for some time. They reheated it in a pan after you order by scooping it from the warmer. The saag had a weird flavor/scent to it. The tandoori chicken and paneer needed to be requested. The garlic naan had bits of garlic on top and was more like plain naan. The workers were all really nice. There is plenty of parking. It was somewhat hard to find the restaurant as it was in the corner and not easily visible. read more

Namaste Indian Kitchen - the front of the restaurant - Indian Near Me - Riverside, California

See all

while the food was decent, the actual place could use an overhaul. it didn't feel particularly clean, and i didn't like the cafeteria style service. i wish them well! read more

Ordered on Postmates from Corona, the food was so delicious I had to go in person. When I went, the owner (Davi) was extremely welcoming and kind. He asked me my name and about my career. Hard to find places that couple delicious food with sincere service. Highly recommend enjoying and supporting this family run Riverside business. Can't go wrong with the tikki masala and tandoori chicken. read more

10/10 recommend, the food was delicious and amazing customer service ! Took my picky husband to try it for the first time & he loved it.

We stopped by today...just t check it out. I don't like buffets where the customer serves themselves. Here at Namaste, the people who work there serve you. We didn't plan on eating lunch, but we shared a One Item Combo. We got the Vegetable Curry...VERY delicious and flavorful. The pickle side was a shock to my taste buds. SO EPIC in flavor. The accompanied sauces were very yummy . The side of Byrani Rice and Garlic Naan ( which was piping hot out of the oven) was delicious too. Everyone from the Server, the Cook and the Owner were exceptionally friendly. I definitely will be back to try the other items as well !!!! It was a great experience!!! read more

This was our first time here. We were very happy with the service and the food! Very friendly environment overall. Will definitely be coming back. read more

The Chicken Tikka Masala is AMAZING but the portions are shockingly small. Two small scoops of chicken, maybe 4 chicken cubes and a mountain of rice for $12 is not it. I talked to the guy working and said, "you'd have a line out the door if you guys upped the portions." ‍ the naan is wonderful! Please up the portions! read more

Namaste Indian Kitchen - Chicken Tikka Masala - Indian Near Me - Riverside, California

This place is fantastic and I highly recommend it. The food tastes so authentic and the chicken is always cooked perfectly, truly can't remember the last time I've had chicken cooked this perfectly. The sauces and flavors melt in my mouth. Portion sizes are great too and when I get the #2 combo, it always gives me two meals worth. Also the friendliest service. read more

Always 10/10 service and meals. Cant get enough. Our family craves it at least once a week. Never disappoints. Thank you Namaste! read more

My boyfriend and I did takeout from this restaurant. We both had tikka masala and a side of tandoori chicken. The tikka masala was excellent. The tandoori chicken tastes good but it was somewhat dry. I've never had it before so I didnt know what to expect. I also ordered a side of garlic naan. The serving was very generous but it was also a bit dry compared to other naan I have had. I could not taste the garlic. I will go back to try some other dishes. read more

Not at all what I was hoping for based on the reviews. Couldn't believe it. Lacking taste, value, flavor and ambiance. read more

I was pleasantly surprised with this restaurant. I was expecting way less from it. We ordered the garlic naan, vegetables samosa, chicken tikka masala, and the three combo (I chose Channa Masala, Chicken Tikka Masala ad Saag). The naan was very tasty, light and fluffy. Samosa was perfectly fried. The chicken tikka masala, Channa, and sag were delicious. The dish was rich and filling. You get a lot of food if you order the combo, for what it's worth. read more

Literally, the best chicken tikka masala I've ever had. It's creamy and rich in flavor.

the combo lunch plates may seem like a good deal but they try to skimp you out by putting very little meat and instead loading you up on the sauce thats in meat dish. And the naan was not very good compared to other indian places I been to. read more

Ordered 2 Spinach Paneer and Plain Naan. The Naan was either old or they used too much flower because it was very hard and flaky. The paneer hardly had any flavor. For over $50, I feel taken advantage of. read more

If you are in need of Indian food on a Monday, this place is open. The customer service is real nice, so part of the reason for the rating. It's a small establishment so not too recommended for parties larger then 6. I like coming here time to time. It's pretty pricy for the portions given. Could be more flavorful, but overall not bad. It's good for those Monday's. read more

I've eaten at just about every Indian food spot in Riverside and the surrounding areas, Namaste Indian Kitchen is hands down the best. Incredible service from every single person who works there, warm smiles and genuinely kind people, with a very welcoming vibe. Unbelievably yummy food no matter what I get on the menu (my favorites are the samosas and the chicken tikka masala!) and everything is reasonably priced! Just an awesome place to eat at if you enjoy fast high quality Indian food, consistently pleasant interactions, low prices, and an all around satisfying experience One of my favorite places to eat in all of Riverside read more

Namaste has consistent food quality - tasty and fresh. I usually get the combo with saag, chana masala, and samosa. Their naan is generous sized and fresh out of the oven. Customer service is friendly and helpful. It's a small place - great for takeout orders or delivery. Highly recommend this place if you crave Indian food. read more

This place has great food for great price My friends never tried Indian food and she loved the chicken curry and masala and veggie somas Even got an extra combo to go for my mom Would definitely recommend if your into flavorful food ! read more

The food was really good, and they did have good service to call me when they received my order but were out of the items. However, I did order not spicy for a few items and they still came really spicy. Other than that, the food was delicious, and I would definitely eat there again. Their goat curry was absolutely to die for and I still dream about it. read more

This place is crazy good!!!! Super practical Indian food on the go!!!! I highly recommend this place for sit down or take out. Staff was super nice! Very clean too! read more

Stumbled onto this place a little while back and holy smokes is it good! The food is balanced beautifully and hearty portions really make this spot a go to for me! read more

Namaste Indian Kitchen - Delicious food! - Indian Near Me - Riverside, California

This place is a hidden gem. There is a new chef here that has added some interesting flavors.. A hole in wall (but tables) with great affordable Indian and Nepalese food. Try the chicken maslas or chicken or egg curry. They have a buffet or you can order from the menu. The momos and samosas are great. Try the momos or samosas. read more

Namaste Indian Kitchen - Chicken Tikka Masala - Indian Near Me - Riverside, California

Friendly staff. Affordable food. We got three dishes and two naan and rice for three people. Probably better more economical choice is to get three selections on a plate of rice. Nevertheless- super yummy. read more

Sadly I think it's under new ownership and the food is not the same. Different items and different taste. And no yogurt sauce! Or fresh veggies for toppings. read more

Soooo good. I got the chickpea meal with rice and garlic naan. Literally could not get enough. The service was so nice and he let us sample pretty much everything! Genuine Indian food read more

Food was amazing . Some of the best naan I've had . I had spicy chicken tiki and curry lamb . Both were the best I've had from a restaurant . Samosas were huge crispy and full of flavor . read more

My husband and I have been enjoying Namaste for some time now and always look forward to eating here. Recently we just got back from a vacation in New York where we decided to try some highly rated Indian food restaurants . Let me just say Namaste blows them all out of the water, this place is such a gem. Not only if there food consistently fresh and packed with flavor, their staff is always so kind. We absolutely love Namaste and if you are looking for something absolutely delicious for dinner definitely give them a try! read more

People that have not eaten real Indian food will love this place. Lacking seasoning and flavor. Everything is watered down so they can save money. It's a big no for me! read more

I called first to check if they had butter chicken. The person on the phone told me that their chicken tikki masala WAS butter chicken. So, I thought I had said it incorrectly, so I asked for butter chicken as Makhan Murg. And, again, he confirmed that the chicken tikki masala was the same. Wanting to give him the benefit of the doubt, I ordered it with garlic naan. And I ate it knowing it wasn't what I had asked for. He was so adamant so I listened to him. And then I had stomach issues later that night. My friend who had the chick pea masala loved it. He enjoyed the tastes but he's not allergic to ANYTHING. So, as he finished the meal happily, all I could think of was if I had said the right thing to the person who took my take-out order. So disappointing and annoying. But I know what I said and hated being spoken to as if I didn't know. They need to check their customer service. read more

A friend recommended this place, and he was right, the best Indian food I have had in Riverside so far. I had the Chiken tikka with naan and samosas. Everything was delicious and the portions were generous. Staff was friendly and the place was clean. Don't second guess yourself, give it a try, you won't regret it. read more

At first, I thought everything here tasted fantastic . It's a typical Indian fast food kinda joint . And everything tastes good as I ate there But about an hour later when I got home , I had the worst tummy ache ever ! But my mom seemed to do fine and she had the fried fish which she thought was good read more
