I have found them to be consistently over priced compared to other Indian grocery stores in the area. Almost 30-50% higher which is unacceptable. When addressing this with the owner they only made excuses about the recent tariff hike which is understandable to a degree. However the same products at other stores have only seen a moderate increase. The manager had the audacity to tell me their rates were fair. read more

Great little store. Probably every kind of rice & lentils too, so many varieties and lots of other stuff not familiar to me. I got a huge ginger root, thai chili peppers, 2 sandwich size bags of sesame seeds, peeled garlic, & and 2 bunches of green onion. Parking is easy as it's at the end of the strip mall. It's in the same shopping center as grocery outlet, paris bagutte, and goodwill but at the very end around the corner from goodwill. Friendly & helpful workers... you should go so you know what they have in stock. read more

I have had this experience now couple of times, they sell expired products!!! Please check the expiry date before buying anything. Recent experience is yogurt expired 4 days ago and still selling them, picture attached. I also notified them about expired maggie noodles as well. read more

Namaste Plaza - Expired (4days) yogurt and still selling them! - Shopping Centers Near Me - Milpitas, California

I've been a regular to this grocery store for quite some time now. I prefer to go here instead of the grocery stores on Main st because this one's a little less busy and you checkout quick. However, today i.e Jun 5, 2022 I learnt why this store is so quite and it turned out to be my last visit to this place. I'm picky on items I buy here knowing the sub-standard quality of their perishable items. As some other reviewers pointed out, one will find rotting onions, sweet potatoes, fruits, etc and buying any vegetables here is not recommended. I should have applied that rule to desserts/sweets as well. Today I found it out the hard way. The peda (Indian dessert) I purchased here had mold in it. In the past, I've experienced that their desserts were not fresh but ignored the warning signs. I should have avoided those items as well. I guess lesson learned. I took the box back to the store and the store clerk promptly issued a refund. I highlighted that there are other boxes that I notice that they seem fishy and he said he will get rid of them. However, I doubt they will improve. A) I didn't receive any apology B) it seemed to me like it is no big deal for them C) if they cared enough, one would not find rotting vegetables, fruits and now desserts in their store. read more

We frequent this store adjacent to Biryaniz, and their quality of their greens is good. The store's service is decent. When it comes to vegetables, it's undeniably a great value for money. However, I noticed that prices for items like coffee, rice and other items are slightly higher compared to other places. read more

Namaste Plaza Milpitas is amazing! Very friendly staff and during the Covid times, I ordered a curbside pick up. It was very simple process, I called them and they gave me an email id to send them a list of groceries needed. With in an hour I was able to pick up the groceries from the curb side. I paid cash so that I don't have to go in , also I did not want the change back, eg: My bill was 121$ and I had 130$, so I gladly asked them to keep the change, which he insisted on bringing back, but I politely said no and let him keep the change. They are doing us a great help and we as customers should be considerate and thoughtful about them. Fresh veggies, got 99% of what I had on my list. Totally happy with the products!! Thank you for serving in my neighborhood. read more

More expensive than other Indian grocery store. Restroom is in a bad shape. Friendly service staff. read more

They are SUPER EXPENSIVE. $4.99 for one cauliflower???!!!! Next door Walmart sells it for $1:37, Mexican stores sell it for 0.99!! Also, They don't put price on A LOT of their items. You end up paying HUGE price for something you would not have purchased had they put a price sticker on it. I am staying away from them. Will ouse them in emergency. The person who marked my post "funny" is the owner of this store read more

No hygiene, insects are all over the place. Rotten lemons with all fungus over them. Please don't shop here during the covid season, if you want to keep your family safe. When we asked the same were told because it's late. In Bayarea in Friday people shop all the time. read more

It was all good, But I took this just a while ago and I thought to have dinner after this but I guess no !!! After getting this much of curry in it no more dinner !!! good going namaste plaza .. why do you even sell them to us .. Those are just dummies. read more

This grocery store used to be fine pre-covid but they have started hiking the price on pretty much everything now. The prices increase by 50 cents to a dollar or two so it does not seem like price gouging but definitely have increased the prices a lot. They don't even have price tags on half of the shelves/products. Someone needs to look into it. read more

Due to pandemic, we ordered groceries online couple of times from this shop. The vegetables never looked fresh and the new order came with squishy onions. Tried complaining to their support email and they never contacted. read more

Gopi lassi bought from your store made me sick .Please don't alter expiration dates.vegetables are fresh most recent f the times

My review is for the grocery pick up service that's started recently with the minimum order of 75$. I emailed bunch of items & picked it up, as there were lot of items so i didn't check items at store. Later i came to know in order to reach 75$ they have just provided bunch of more items and charged me for that/ or the guys who are preparing are so careless that they didn't see how much i wanted vs how much they provided. Eg. - for 0.5 lb green chillies they gave 1.2 lbs of greenchillies, - instead of 5 lbs 100% wheat aashirwad roti aata, they gave some weird brand roti aata 10 lb with wheat+ all purpose flour. - instead of indian ketchup they gave roma tomatoes paste in a tin. - instead of 8 jalapeño pieces they gave 14, and out of which 6 were contaminated. I appreciate they started pickup option for convenience during covid time, But i would expect them to call me or email me atleast to say what are the items they can not fulfill vs charging me randomly for the items I didn't even order or which is not any of my use. Also atleast check what is the food quality you are giving to customers. I do not recommend pickup from here. If you do expect you will just throw away money for the contaminated stuff you can't eat or some good stuff that you don't need. read more

Please make sure you see the date of EXPIRY when you purchase any item. I just returned an expired pack of SUPERME DULHAN INDIAN HENNA (mehandi) powder and writing this review. While returning at the billing counter, I asked for a non-expired same item, the cashier asked me to check in the same aisle and shocked on seeing most of the same items are having expired date (12/2016). After that I purchased the same item (a DOLLAR less) in another INDIAN store. So be extra cautious while shopping. read more

I am so OVERWHELMED. What is going on in this supermarket?! Spices are everywhere. Huge selection of fresh produce. There's even fresh, hot samosas and veggie puffs. Literally every corner that I turned, there was a different scent! The market is clean, simple and confusing at its best. Besides the giant 'Fresh Produce' sign, there is no clear instructions on which area shelves what. No clear category and honestly no logic in determining the location/placing of the items. But I guess that's the fun of it! It's like a fun adventure. If you're ever waiting for food like me, definitely wander around and visit this market. Even when you walk out with nothing, the experience will somewhat enrich you. Also, be ready for very interesting food items! And LEAVE YOUR JUDGMENTS/PREJUDICE at home. read more

The most unhygienic shop I've been to. Shopping carts & baskets didn't seem to be cleaned and sanitized. Noticed some expired stuffs. Produce were not fresh at all. And the worst part is, the cashiers were not friendly at all, even when it was less crowded. The guy cashier was more attentive towards his Tamil series on the tv rather than their customers. That young lady cashier was grumpy and instead of her saying thank you, for giving them business, she didn't even look at me when I said thank you. She made me feel like I wasn't welcome there. Went there three times just thought that I would want to be fair before giving them a bad review. read more

Today was the craziest day in over the two decades of my being in Bay Area. Six counties announced the 'shelter in place' directive in response to the COVID-19 situation. People were desperately trying to get the basics for themselves before the directive gets in place at midnight. The staff at Namaste was being extremely helpful in helping people move through checkout as fast as they could. They walked along the long line to see wherever someone was getting only simple items, and could pay in cash, they would settle it right there in line. Even for anyone who was ok with estimated payments, they would take credit card payments too. Kept the lines moving and effectively split up folks with small and simple purchases from those who were getting lots of supplies. Kudos to these guys for helping manage the crazy rush. read more

namaste plaza is a strange name for an indian grocery but that's what it is. place is huge, clean and well stocked with the usual pastries, produce, meats, canned goods, snacks, etc. . pricing reasonable or slightly over. eats: ice bar (.99) -tasted pretyy good, -situated at left of entrance notes: -parking terrible in this mall. read more

The worst Indian grocery store in the bay area. They sell stale, expired foods and perishable products without expiry and manufacturing date. The vegetables at this place is rotten. The customer service at the store is worse when reporting such incidents. I will never buy at this store and strongly recommend folks who especially have kids not to buy any stuff from this place. This place is rotten. -5 rating if allowed. read more

I love this place. I used to go to India Cash n Carry in Sunnyvale, but then I discovered Namaste Plaza and grocery shopping became so much easier. It's not crowded like ICC, staff are very polite and helpful, produces are fresh and they have a great collection of other products. On a different note, they have a very clean restroom in the store too. ;) read more

Most of my reviews are 4 or 5 star. Why is this 1 star? Stay tuned.. Namaste Plaza isn't the tidiest or best-run store at the best of times, but they have great samosas in Milpitas so I go there.. and often pick up other stuff. Their cashiers know nothing about North Indian food even though they carry it. That's fine. But know what? They get awfully mad and rude if you catch their ignorance !! One of their cashiers charged me $1 extra for a sweet "sakarpara" because he insisted it was a sweets item. But it's a well-known snack item in UP/Rajasthan. I pointed that out to him, and thought he would correct it. But this guy CREATED A SCENE !!. He was loud, rude and disrespectful, and wasted 10 minutes of other customers' time. APPARENTLY, this store thinks that customers will lie and cheat just to save a lousy dollar on ONE item!! Would YOU want to go to a store like that?? . read more

I like the store for the fact that they have fresh groceries, decent variety and good staff. The reason for 1 star rating is for not making customer safety a priority. Their staff unpacks large boxes in the aisles and leaves the ropes on the floor. I had once tripped badly in this store due to this and have been having chronic knee pain since the last few months. Seems like they are waiting for more people to get injured and sue them before they fix the problem. read more

Me and my wife always prefer this place for our groceries purchase. A small Indian feel the moment you enter inside. Your time flies by. Their fresh vegetables and fruits are something to be pointed out. I have never found anything in bad quality ever. Also the samosas are delicious which you get it here. Its my wife's favourite. They have everything here which you wont get it even in India sometimes. Staffs are very friendly and help full. Unlike other stores these people are alive. read more

Fresh vegetables at a reasonable price And a halal meat shop next door. Nice combo makes it a one stop shop for me. read more

In midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, I heard the owner tell one of his staff in his native language, let's mark up the prices by 30%, we will never see such demand later. Of course he assumed I didn't understand. My 3 year patronage of this store ended that day. I have no issues with quality not being that great, not that clean or slightly high prices. But price gouging in times like these is pathetic. read more

Warning: regularly sell expired products. Just take a note of the expiry dates on all pickles, masalas etc. A good chunk of them are always expired or close to expiry. Most of the legumes they sell( kidney beans , dals etc) do not have any packaging or manufacturing date printed. Makes me wonder how fresh their produce is too. Stay away , there are other indian grocery stores in the area. read more

Bad service... One thin guy ,he dont even know how to recieve customers... I'll go for another indian bazar.. read more

Warning: They sell expired goods or goods that are close to expiry. On a few occasions I purchased items unknowingly that had already expired or were close to expiry. Am not sure how fresh their produce is either. I would rather do my shopping elsewhere. Honestly why are you in business if you want to sell old expired goods to the public. Well I won't be going back there again! read more

This place is a pleasant surprise compared to the New India Bazaar on main street in Milpitas and other desi stores on El Camino ! It's clean, organized, tons of choice/variety and lot's of room inside the store to go around with your shopping cart. And best of all, there is plenty parking in the shopping center so you don't have to compete. Prices are competitive and produce is fresh. The owner/manager of the store (Srikanth) is a real nice guy who is always ready to help. He is polite and pleasant to deal with- a total opposite to the owner at New India Bazaar on main street- the guy (decked with bling-bling) is plain crass and rude ! I love this place and am making it my regular grocery stop! I am sooooo glad it opened in Milpitas :) read more

This is the most disorganized grocery store I have ever seen. Things are thrown away here and there. I don't know if I have gone on a bad day (honestly, it didn't seem like that). read more

Really good stuff. Produce was selected carefully. And I got most of my items. First time buying indian groceries after the pandemic started and delighted by my order from here! read more

I have been going to this place for the last 4 years. The staff is very cooperative. During this covid-19 period, they provide curb-side service and are very flexible in allowing you to adjust your items. read more

Today I went there & asked the staff to re-fill the onions as the stall was empty. He acted as if he didn't understand, then said "no more onions". When I pointed to full bags of onions right there, he says "if you say please then I will". I said "#@$!U" and came out. Prices went up during the pandemic!!! read more

I tried their curbside pickup. Half of the things were missing and they didnt provide receipt. After coming home, i realized that they charged me for everything. I'll try and file complaint with county read more

Worst grocer store ever. Almost 50-80% pricey compared to other grocery stores and top of that the billing counter guy was extremely rude. It was my first and last time there. Really worst service. read more

Yes, this place is *good*, which is equal to great/awesome for grocery stores. Most desi grocery stores are so pathetic, New India Bazaar (Milpitas) tops the list followed by Cash and Carry and such. The staff is polite and attentive. The management is appreciative of feedback and responds promptly, one can argue this is because they are located in an obscured corner and that not as many people know that there is a Namaste Plaza in Milpitas, well one can argue anything they want but almost nothing can make an arrogant person fun to be around. They are well stocked and are happily ready to get things/brands they do not have on their list without fussing. Thats good business, if the customer wants to buy something, get it to him! At the corner of the block. Lots of parking. 100% recommended. Good job guys! PS: New India Bazaar (Milpitas) SUCKS big time, simply because they do not care and take customers for granted. read more

I have been frequently shopping at Namaste Plaza. So far, I havent had the problems that I have with other Indian stores. They have good produce. Lot of options. Good location. Parking has never been a problem. I have not found an expired product yet. The people are nice. I give them feedback to their face and they do take it to consideration. The other day they told me to pick a different brand of toor dal because they were receiving complaints for the one I picked. That was the first time an Indian store had actually given me positive input. Other places would have tried to sell defective products to me and get rid of inventory. read more
