What we loved: The Butter Chicken, Cheesy Garlic Naan, Onion Potato Naan, Lamb Curry and Chicken curry. Good Mango Lassie.
What was ok: Basmati Rice (Needed more aromatics but very soft and cooked to perfection.
Very clean and beautiful decor. The server was very zoned into our needs and gave us wonderful service.
The appetizers are huge and the lamb biryani was a bit spicy but in a good way, so beware.
Lots of space, good for families and large groups, 10 out of 10.

Ordered take out for the first time from here for my family and I, and the food was very flavroful. I’ve only had Indian/Nepalese a few times in my life, and this is some of the best I’ve ever had. I especially enjoyed the buttered chicken with basmati rice and stuffed potato naan. So, I plan to be back in the future, and I look forward to sampling other menu items!

We love visiting Namaste and now have brought along friends to join us who equally loved their experience. I can’t say enough about this place. It is some of the best Indian/Nepalase food I’ve tasted, having never travelled to India I can’t speak to authenticity, though I seek out the best options in nearly every city I travel to in the US. We’ve stretched beyond out traditional curries here and love the Madras with its nutty undertones and gingery heat. Our last visit we tried two new dishes. The Baingan Bharta which had a smooth buttery-ness, light gingergy heat, brightness from the tomatoes, and added texture with peas that popped in your mouth. The second new dish we tried was the Lamb Biryani–the flavors in this. We loved the layers of heat and texture to this dish and generous addition of lamb. We’ve witnessed cross table conversations in this space amongst complete strangers about sports. Food delivery people offered a seat and a free dish when they arrive early to pick up someone’s dinner.
I do think the service can be inconsistent. We’ve had servers go above and beyond and had great conversations with them about dishes. Though, it does seem customary for patrons to not be greeted when coming through the door and to be left to their own to find a seat and, at times, it can feel that the restaurant is under staffed.

Travellers, this is an outstanding Nepalese/Indian restaurant. The food was delicious and the service was fantastic. Everything was wonderful. The takeout service is wonderful as well. There are many choices for beverages, alcoholic, as well as alcohol free. We recommend chai tea. The lentil soup is wonderful, and the vegetable samosas are not to be missed. The pastry Dough is made on site with chickpea flour so they are gluten free as well as delicious. And the two dips that come with the samosas are wonderful as well. They taste homemade. The tandoori menu is wonderful and the shrimp are huge. A perennial favorite is the buttered chicken. It is excellent. The mild hot is medium and there is nice heat in the food. We have eaten the food several times and each time it is wonderful. The restaurant itself is charming and has lovely decor that transports you to another place. It is worth the trip. Check out. We recommend.
TLDR – fantastic food. Worth the trip.

The food here was amazing! We got the mattar paneer, palak paneer, and veggie pakoras. Both curry dishes were fresh and flavorful. Just the right level of spiciness. Generous serving of rice with the meal. Service was a little slow during the dinner rush, but our server was still very attentive and friendly. We’ll definitely be visiting here again during our next trip to Greenfield!

A friend and I ordered the Chicken Madras and Butter Chicken, plus a Chicken Tikka masala to go. I think they may have swapped the Tikka masala and butter chicken. Everything was delicious though, and the Chicken Madras was the perfect spice level. We also loved the cheesy garlic naan.

Delicious food and great service! Atmosphere was great for conversations. The waiter was very attentive and amiable. He even offered us chai teas on the house because it was our first time
My girlfriend is vegan so she was a bit worried at first but they have many vegetarian and vegan options. Another favorite was the naan bread sampler (not sure what it’s called) but it was perfect!

I just stopped by for a quick dinner while I went back to Manhattan from Vermont. Friendly, good food, and clean. I ordered butter chicken curry, plain nan, and mango lassi. Butter chicken is good. Sometimes it is too salty but this restaurant curry is a good balance. It is easy to access from 91.

Excellent Indian Food and great people running the business! I highly recommended getting takeout and sitting at the bar. They even give you the remote control to watch whatever you want. Very friendly and tasty food.

We drove nearly 20–30 miles with a group of 10 people, excited to try this place, but the experience was extremely disappointing. When we arrived around 3–4 PM yesterday, no one acknowledged us or made any effort to seat us.
After waiting for several minutes, one of my friends went to speak to the person at the counter — who was shockingly rude and completely dismissive. We waited another 5 minutes, hoping things would improve, but when we tried again, he just said “I’m busy” in a very unprofessional tone. There were no other customers he was helping at the time.
We ended up leaving without even being seated. Terrible service and attitude — definitely not worth the drive or the disappointment. I hope the management looks into what happened around that time because it completely ruined our experience.
