    We enjoyed some of our recent dining experience at Namaste but not everything, in part because of our own mistakes. We do like the restaurant, found our servers to be most friendly and attentive in spite of being a little slowness resulting from staff shortage and being quite crowded on a weekend evening. Sadly we were seated next to party of a dozen people, who were noisily celebrating whatever. Really noisy. After ordering, we had to move outside to the patio, which was very nice though the weather was very hot. We loved our meal (exceptions will be noted in a moment): the Daal soup was terrific, thick and tasty, really excellent. So was the lamb biryani. And so was the chicken lollipop and chicken vindaloo -- except that we asked for medium spicy and found the dishes way, way too spicy to eat. Our bad. We ordered the lamb light on spices and it was wonderful. Wish we had been more careful. Our fault, but we'll come back, for sure, and be darned sure to keep our spices on the light side.

    Here a few weeks ago and still dreaming of it. The mango lassi was soul cleansing and the thukpa was one of the best dishes I've had in my life. Pretty slow, but definitely worth it. Calm and quiet atmosphere.

    Excellent hostess, food was decent, naan bread was good. However the hidden surcharges took us by surprise- is 4% gratuity expected and included? Are they trying to sneak this in expecting patrons won't know it's there? Just a bad taste in our mouth after decent meal .... Pun intended ;-)

    Samosa chaat: everything you love inside and on a vegetable samosa, deconstructed style. We had to control ourselves from inhaling it.

    Seriously some of the BEST Nepali/Indian Food I've ever eaten. That includes in London. Namaste Kitchen in Shelburne opened four months ago and is to die for. The aroma of spices wafting out the front door will tempt all five senses. Beautiful and clean. Tastefully appointed large restaurant with bar. BYO wine. Please note that everything is prepared from scratch and takes time. Don't be in a rush to dine. They were understaffed by two tonight and jam packed, even seating a couple at 9pm. Thankfully, every customer seemed calm and relaxed. People know to wait for great food. No one eas disappointed. We have copious leftovers. Lunch tomorrow will be fantastic. Very reasonably priced. Well worth the wait. I'll definitely be back and see momos and Thalis in my future.

    Best Himalayan/Nepalese food I've ever had in my life!!! I have gone back twice in one week and there's nothing I haven't liked. The chow mein is so good and is seasoned perfectly. The fried and steamed momos are incredible. All the sauces for all the curries are so addicting. Samosas are like none I've ever had. This place covers all my spicy & savory cravings and makes me want to travel to Nepal.

    We had dinner here and it was so flavorful. The chicken tandoori, lamb saag, lentil soup and naan were excellent.

    Go past the dashes for the review. I'm just giving context here…read more The Burlington I knew was 3ft taller, and had a human gyroscope on Church Street right outside a Japanese restaurant. What I don't remember are good momos. April 8th, 2024. The eleventh hour. We were short on time. The streets are never this crowded. Everyone was excited. Coming from the SF Bay Area, we have very good access to good momos at least in South Bay. What we got this day in Burlington would have been a great challenger to all the Momo shops in the Bay Area that I'm typing this review in right now. (Ignore the dashes in words. I don't want people to find my review using the words with dashes because this was a special day.) ----------------- 3 orders of momos. Chai. The restaurant was absolutely over-whelmed. The front of the restaurant were packed to the br-im with customers wai-ting for their takeout orders. We had to wa-it ha-lf an ho-ur for ours. After all, the steamers could cook only so many momos at once. Everyone was nervous, excited, and on their toes. Yet, service was not compromised. The owner, understanding our frustration, gave us some mango lassi while we waited. We're finally opened up the tin container when we got to our viewing location, which was around, 20 minutes? We loved it. The momos were still warm and juicy. The flavors were relatively basic, rustic, but also felt very healthy, in a sense that it was missing that je ne sais quoi, that roundness in taste, that I assume is a LACK of MSG. What kicked this into 11 was the chutney it came with. More tomato heavy than my average experience. You could taste how clean the tomatoes were. It was FRESH! Now, that was ahead of a special event that may never happen in this Burlington again in our lifetime. I imagine things would be even better on any other day.

    Excellent food and service, and reasonably priced. We'll return in the future. (Characters,…read morecharacters, characters)
