Delicious and authentic Indian restaurant! We ordered the paneer tika masala and naan, and they were delicious! Great flavors and portions. The mango lassi was also very tasty. The owner and staff were kind and attentive. Highly recommend!

You must try the Mango Lasi. The yogurt is rich and pack full of spices.
Also, the menu has so many vegetarian options that are delisious, filling and will not leave you craving meat. But there are plenty of meat options as well.
We had the Paneer Saag, Buttered Chicken, Garlic Naan, Mango Lasi, and Chai.

Our meal was absolutely wonderful!! Some of the most tender lamb we’ve ever had- it was so delicious. The portions were very generous, and they pack the takeout so that it stays super hot and mess-free (makes serving so much easier)
100% recommend getting an order of samosas with your entree, they were amazing!
We’ll definitely be back again for the flavorful food and kind service 🙂

After our trek across the water to Lummi Island, my husband and I decided to have dinner in Bellingham upon our return to the mainland. He found excellent Google reviews for Namaste, The Royal Tast of India.
Parking wasn’t an issue as we easily found an open spot near the restaurant. Fortunately for us, because it was a Sunday, we didn’t have to feed the parking meter. Yay!
Our waiter was very attentive and gracious. We ordered garlic naan, chicken chettinad, lamb korma, chai, mango lassi, and salt lassi. The chicken and lamb were super tender, and the flavor of the gravy was thoroughly infused into the meat, making the meal extra delicious. We requested both meals be prepared to medium spice level. The desired result was achieved as the meals were flavorful without being overly spicy. We left with our bellies full and our appetites satiated. Prior to leaving, we couldn’t resist ordering several sweets from the display case to take home for later. Too bad we live in Port Ludlow otherwise this restaurant would be a regular stop on heavy rotation.

I had a wonderful time at this restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish we tried had a perfect balance of taste and seasoning. The atmosphere was equally impressive — warm, inviting, and stylishly decorated. The staff were friendly and attentive, making sure we were comfortable throughout our meal. Especially naan’s and chicken curry, butter chicken and appetiser is lovely… Whether you’re looking for a casual lunch or a special dinner, this place is a great choice. Highly recommend!

Another amazing visit to Namaste in Blaine, WA. Incredible service and spectacular food. I prefer spicy style food and my family likes the opposite, and they were able to provide exactly what we requested.

I consider myself fairly well-traveled, and with Indian cuisine being one of my favorites, I try to get it wherever I can. This place, Namaste in Bellingham, has to be one of the best Indian restaurants I have had the privilege to enjoy, if not the best, among the many other places we have visited in the past, ranging from establishments in San Diego, Las Vegas, Dallas, and London. The Paneer Butter Masala and the Shahi Paneer, absolutely blew our minds. It is 100% guaranteed that we will be back, and back often.

I came across this place unexpectedly on a walk. The gluten and dairy free pakora was largely portioned and nicely spiced. Very satisfied and will be returning!

The owner was very accommodating and humble. It was so surprising to find good Indian food so up north, way better than the ones in Seattle. It was a very spacious establishment.
We ordered chai, paneer 65, saag paneer and garlic naan.
I recommend all of these, they were delicious, my favorite was the paneer 65.
There’s plenty of parking available. The washrooms were clean and had enough stalls. The menu is very reasonably priced.

Our vegetarian party of three visited during what I’m assuming is their “soft opening” since I heard about it only because of reddit. We were expecting glitches with either the service or the food, but everything went really well. We were greeted with a “Namaste” by our server, our table was comfortable, and each table has its own water carafe. We ordered samosas as an appetizer – we order these at every Indian restaurant we visit – and the server suggested the Gobi Manchurian (fried cauliflower with a sweet sauce). The gobi was better than the samosas IMO; the samosas were somewhat dry and too potatoe-y for my taste, with not enough seasoning. But my spouse liked them, especially with the chutneys that were provided.
For our entrees, we had the saag paneer (excellent), the paneer tikka masala (excellent), and the aloo gobi (very good). Each entree comes with white rice. The garlic naan was also very good, although IMO it would benefit from having the ghee spread on it more liberally.
For dessert we had gulab jamun, which was spectacular.
We will definitely be back!
