    Very disappointed. Service was decent but the food was not good. Edible, but why put yourself through it, you should enjoy and savor each bite. This was not the case. Perhaps it was one off for me but I would not consider going back. Mango lassi was super sweet and found some of the food to be undercooked. It may look good but taste was not expected. Addressed it to the person who made the food and that person shrugged it off. Oh well, good luck.

    10/10 This is REAL AUTHENTIC food!! I honestly don’t have anything to complain about. The food was so fresh and you can tell that the ingredients and seasonings are pure. It was my first time trying this type of food and I will most definitely be back! I ordered the butter chicken and my husband ordered the chow mein. There is so much to choose from on this menu and there is a wide variety. The price can be high but that just depends on what you get, they also give you good portions!!

    Great place. Clean, and great seating. Our server, Chris, did a great job and was very knowledgeable. The food was outstanding, and the prices are very reasonable. Will 100% go back again.

    This was the second visit here bc it was better taste last visit. We ordered couple of things this time. Two kind of Chicken Curry was too salty. And I ordered Mango lassi was waay too sweet!!! I couldn’t drink. I had Mango lassi so many time at other Indian/ Nepalese restaurants but it was never that much sweet. And I asked waitresses if I can get another drink in stead of this lassi. And she said no. So I decided not to drink it. The Weightless customer service wasn’t good. I don’t want to go back there again.

    Delicious Nepalese restaurant in Savannah. We got the Momos, noodles, and fried rice. All were really yummy, though the fried rice was my favorite. It’s not very spicy (we got medium) so ask for some hot/spicy sauce on the side if you enjoy it. The service was super nice and prompt. The cocktails were also well-crafted though a bit weak. Definitely would go back here.

    We had a fantastic dinner out last night here. Service was excellent, our server made some great recommendations and the chef/owner brought out the food and was super friendly and knowledgeable about the food. Our favorite dishes of the night: samosas! So fabulous. Kathmandu chicken! Great recommendation from our server! The bread platter and butter chicken were a dangerous combination that lead to impossibly over-stuffed and happy stomachs.

    On a random stroll down Broughton, I stopped in this place. I'd been looking for some good south Asian food in Savannah for a while now and this Nepalese fusion place was the spot. I came in for early dinner and the place was well staffed but empty. However, the longer I say here folks started coming in. The atmosphere is chill enough for family and the bar is well stocked with all your top shelf favorites. I had the cheese naan and mild shrimp korma. Let's just say the mild opened up my sinuses expertly so if you like it spicy, they do spice right. This spot is about a mile walk from River Street so not far at all. It is on the block of Broughton with construction but don't let it run you off from some good Nepalese food.

    Amazing experience! Our server, Chris, was very personable, knowledgeable, and helpful in making recommendations. The food was equally wonderful. We had the chicken steamed mo mos, malai kofta (as recommended), and the chicken Tikka masala with garlic Naan. Everything was delicious and I'd absolutely go back. My friend and I were honestly surprised this place is not closer to 5 stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ delicious!

    The food was really good. One of the best Nepalese food place in US. The bison momo were amazing. The daal bhaat chicken set was so much more than I expected. The staffs were super friendly. The vibe was amazing. It was a great dinner experience. Highly recommend.

    After relocating to NC from NYC several years ago we haven’t had great Indian/Asian food in a long time so stumbling across this place in Savannah was so amazing. This was hands down some of the best food we have eaten in a long time. The naan was definitely the best we have had ever. Only negative being I’m going to crave this food and won’t be able to get it from 5 hours away!

    Was in town for the weekend and wanted to try a place I'd never been before. When I was greeted with "come inside and have a drink," I was sold! Since I was a solo diner I sat at the bar and my bartender made me a delicious drink based on my tastes. The food was fabulous and coming here was a great way to close out my Savannah trip. This place is beautiful and the staff was great. You won't be disappointed!

    Unethical charges on bill/check. Please check your check carefully before you pay. There were items that we didn’t even consume but we were charged on the bill. When we asked for it, they removed those amounts but still charged 20% gratuity on items that we didn’t even consume. Check the attached bill. The subtotal was $105 and the gratuity charged was $27.20 which is definitely not 20% that the check shows. When I asked the manager to clarify, they had no answer and simply refunded me $7 with no apology. Simply cheating people in the name of gratuity. There is a saying- proof is in the pudding. Check the attached receipt to see the scam. Never demanded any compensation as the restaurant response states. Simply lying to save their unethical behavior

    I got the roasted eggplant curry and my boyfriend got the classic chicken curry. Both were delicious and perfectly spicy! The serve was great and the food and serving sizes were AMAZING for the price. We will definitely be coming back.

    The vegetable fried rice looked delicious, but it tasted average. The lamb was different, but it was very good. The pineapple martini was great! The restaurant was very clean. I will go back again.

    Phenomenal food. We were out and about and started craving naan. I found Namaste on Google maps and we made a beeline for it. For a starter we ordered the bison mo-mo (based on rave reviews), and they were absolutely delicious. For our main meal we split an order of the butter chicken curry and the garlic cheese naan. The garlic cheese naan was perfect and exactly what we were craving, I cannot recommend it enough. The butter chicken was also very good, probably some of the best I’ve ever had. All and all it was a great experience, kind staff, amazing food, good location. They also give a 10% discount to military and local students. We will definitely be back. Highly recommend.

    I’m writing this review as I stand waiting for my food that I placed online just about an hour ago. In the thirty minutes I’ve been stood here (after I was notified my food was ready) I’ve watched staff run, swear audibly, and pass by patrons who have resorted to waving because that seems the only way to receive service. People have come and gone as I’ve stood here, people watching. One couple even saw this wild gesture one waiter made to the other to not take them. I understand staffing can be challenging but if you can’t manage the volume well, or at all, make some changes (maybe don’t take online orders). Unfortunately I can’t comment on the food because well I’m still standing here and if you ever stop by I may still be standing here in eternity wondering about what I did wrong to deserve this karma. FOR-EVER, FOR-EVER…

    Seriously some of the best tasting Indian cuisine I have ever eaten. The recommendations from the server were excellent and we ended up selecting a spread of 5 curry samples. The lentils and chana Masala were divine. Each had its own flavor profile and we couldn't get enough. The tandoori chicken was insane, super deep flavors, good sear and crunch, and tender enough to fall off the bone. The bison momo dumplings were and outstanding starter. Go to this restaurant. Just go.

    Savannah GA doesn’t have too many vegan options so I was so happy that this restaurant labels everything that can be made vegan on the menu. My mom and I split one of the trays and everything on it was absolutely delicious; I especially loved the Chana masala and pickled veggies. The server also went above and beyond and was so friendly to talk to. I highly recommend stopping here, you won’t regret it if you’re a fan of Indian cuisine.

    My husband and I had dinner here tonight. The food was excellent and the service marvelous. I had the butter chicken and my husband the traditional Nepalese platter with chicken(I can’t remember the actual name). This was a great choice as it featured dishes from all the food groups. It was definitely a complete meal. Our server directed the kitchen to adjust the spice level down as I’m a bit of a wimp when it comes to spice level. Then, he brought my husband chili sauce on the side so he could enjoy his portion the way he likes it. I highly recommend Namaste as a thoroughly enjoyable dining experience. 5 delicious stars! ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    I recently dined at Namaste Savannah and had a fantastic experience. The food was absolutely delicious, and the service was impressively fast. The servers were incredibly friendly and patient, making our visit even more enjoyable. While it can get busier on the weekends, the food is definitely worth the wait. Highly recommended!

  • 4/5 Xhochet W. 1 year ago on Google
    I stopped in for lunch and it was my first time. My server was so nice. I tried the vegetable mo-mo’s, deep fried. With a side of home fries. My mo-mo’s were delicious. I am giving 4 stars because the menu said home fries. It was just regular crinkle fries with home seasoning. When I hear home fries, I think they have been chopped in house.

    Stopped in while the family went for a walking trip. Had a couple of beers. Chris the bartender was great. Enjoyed talking to everyone and made sure that you felt at home.

  • 4/5 jim j. 1 year ago on Google
    Did this on the food tour and we had their curry chicken and you could add more spice. I added more spice and it was on fire. For sure cleared my nose but had great flavors. Not something I would have on a regular but would highly recommend every once in awhile. Delicious food and great people.

  • 5/5 Emmitt J. 1 year ago on Google
    Needed a place that served vegan and vegetarian options, and this place supplied both! Generous portions and love how they gauge their spice meter. (Hint: Hot = Very Hot 🔥 but still very tasty 😋)

  • 2/5 Dinesh G. 1 year ago on Google
    Food looks delicious but does not taste good. The foods were all so bland. No nepali typical taste. Bland and sweeter in taste though we ordered medium spicy. We ordered Chicken tandoori, chicken curry and chicken biryani and would recommend none.

  • 5/5 Teresa W. 1 year ago on Google
    I really loved the Samosa plate, my mom ordered a fish sandwich and was disappointed! Be sure to order Indian food for something authentic and tasty! This samosa was an appetizer item and it was perfectly filling and less than ten dollars!

  • 5/5 Jennifer S. 2 years ago on Google
    This was hands-down the best food I’ve ever had in Savannah (maybe anywhere including DC) that was not of a local flair. If you’re looking for Lowcountry boils and crabcakes you don’t come here but to get delicious Nepalese food and a lovely atmosphere and did I mention the most delicious food ever(?!?!) this is where you come. My sister and I, much to our embarrassment, ordered six different things and ate almost all of everyone of them. Featured in the pictures are samosas with ground lamb, moMo’s with bison, butter chicken (dish with red sauce, saag (dish with green sauce and we picked chicken), garlic cheese naan and a dish of fried rice not pictured. I am sad to leave this restaurant here where we can’t get to it quickly since we live in Florida.

  • 5/5 Kelsie S. 2 years ago on Google
    This place is great. Our server was the best server we had in Savannah during the three days we were there. He was very accommodating and helpful. I have a dairy allergy and he recommended his favorite vegan dish and told me he would ask them to make me some dairy free bread to go with it. The food was super yummy and filling. Overall it was a great lunch!

    We were roaming the streets of Savannah and we were feeling hungry. We wanted to have a quick appetizer and we decided to have chicken steamed momos at Namaste Savannah. The restaurant was beautifully decorated and ambience was also amazing. We were greeted by our server and we decided to order Chicken Steamed momos. Although the service was slow and we had to wait for around 25-30 minutes to get our food. The food was hot and good. Good momos.
