Beautiful restaurant and atmosphere, best masala dosa around, perfect sambah, authentic food and decor coming from a South Indian family - if you are after authentic Indian cuisine and vegetarian food this is the place to go. Staff go above and beyond with a brilliant attitude! My favourite restaurant as an Anglo Indian vegetarian girl!

Fabulous meal here for my birthday. Beautiful interior. Very helpful and knowledgeable staff, who understood the menu and could offer suggestions. There were three of us, one is vegan, one has a food intolerance, and I have a severe sesame allergy. The staff were very mindful of this and I felt very safe eating here. The customer service was excellent. The staff were attentive, very polite, and cheerful. The food was incredible. You could taste the spices and the ingredients, not the usual vegetarian affair where everything just tastes of tomatoes and onion. Two of us had the paneer, my sister had the chicken substitute. The Onion bhaji was cooked to perfection and not at all greasy. It was beautifully presented. The naan breads were amazing. We were too stuffed for dessert so just had chai. The spice blend in these was lovely, with a real kick of heat. I can also highly recommend the cocktails and mocktails. My mojito mocktail was the best I've ever had. All in all a fabulous experience, and I will definitely be returning very soon.

Good tasty food but a bit greasy and not very generous with the amount of paneer. Service was speedy, but we were asked a dozen times about how we liked the food, which was excessive and almost intrusive. We left with the impression that they were more concerned about getting a good review than anything else as we were given QR codes to scan to leave reviews.

Are the flavours truly representitive of Indian cuisine? perhaps that's why I had some sour flavours and fiery hot not tasty hot flavours that didn't taste like Indian food that I've had before, given my disapointment I felt the mandatory service charge unwarrented.

We ate at Namaste village again yesterday and had their Sunday Lunch Buffet. Food was of outstanding quality yet again! Service and Staff were fantastic and the atmosphere is super chilled and makes a real change from day to day life. The 3 Curries on offer were incredible and so flavoursome, and the value for money is second to none! We didn't miss the meat at all (despite both of us normally being meat eaters) and we both commented it actually made a nice change to not feel too full and heavy after eating such a big meal. Namaste, we will certainly be back again!

When we arrived staff couldn’t find our booking for 13 made a week prior and questioned where we had booked through. I showed them the text they had sent me 10 mins prior to the booking and the email confirmation etc and they said they could accommodate us. Took over 40 mins for a drinks order to be taken but staff were so friendly and helpful. Food came quite quickly and was mostly lovely - the curries themselves were very flavourful. Some of our party felt the sauces were too thin and there weren’t enough veggies/paneer in the dish though. Then very slow service after food again - not offered a second drink at all, and then had to wait over 30 mins for the bill which proved to be one of the more expensive curries we’ve been for. Probably wouldn’t go again, which is a shame as it’s definitely the most beautiful curry house we’ve visited!

Clean and tidy restaurant, very friendly staff. The food was tasty with good sized portions but the menu is a bit limited. This is a specialist vegetarian/vegan restaurant which also caters for gluten intolerance as well, however the staff explained that the GF food is cooked in same fryer as the non GF food. This is OK if you are GF for fashionable reasons but not for anyone who is GF for medical reasons. Children are welcome but there isn't a children's menu. Most of the youngsters there were eating French fries and ketchup I noticed. I was disappointed that there wasn't more variety of vegetables available. I guess most people want artificial chicken there days. The biggest surprise was the price, it was eye wateringly expensive, over £200 with the service charge for 4 adults and 1 young child, we had mains a couple of sides, not many drinks and a couple of deserts.

This time I felt disappointed as we went to have dinner for a special occasion from Colchester specially as our last experience was very good. But this time the food was ok infact the daal felt a little sour and the service guy explained us that their chefs are working here from 20 years and they said it’s not bad. I mean why do we spoil our meal telling them that we didn’t like it. Well, it’s still not bad for Indian flavour food. Also to add we have paid 12.5% service charge for such service experience.

Staff arguing on simple requests (i.e. Can I have plain disa instead of masala dosa served in the buffet). Staff arguing over space allocation i e. I booked a table for 12 and turned up with 14. I was advised that the restaurant is fully booked and there is no space to accommodate additional guests. Ultimately gave us an additional table for 4. The restaurant didn't get to half occupancy for the duration I was there, unnecessary argument. Although the food is great such staff behaviour is turning a lot of customers away from this place. As if the management cares about this review. Review from 4 years ago: Main course is exceptionally good reminds me of some good restaurants in the States of Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh India. South Indian this weekend and would like to see it go to 5 Star. My first and probably only contender for a 5 star rating for an Indian restaurant in Norwich. After moving to Norwich about a year ago I heard much about this restaurant but didn't get to eat until now for obvious reasons. The daal makhni was the best I have had in past few years in the UK. Baigan bharta was slightly tangier for my taste but very good. No doubt that food preparation is authentic at this place with great taste and portion size. However the two missing stars are for the following reasons Roti and naan were not the best. An "Indian" takeaway down the street from my place makes it better. This, I believe, is down to the wheat flour used (one of the brands starting with E). Imly chutney with special chaat could have been tangier. Sambar was bit confused with Rasam. Dosa not worth the price. Also there are a lot of dishes missing from the menu which a typical vegetarian restaurant back India would have on their menu Overall great ambience. authentic taste. menu could be improved and pricing adjusted to reflect potion size and cost of ingredients

Nice service and tasty food (and free dessert) but the spice threshold was much lower than expected. The family, including 2 adults and 2 teenagers ordered from the 'medium' section of the menu but we found the food to be only 'mild' with no kick, even the teenagers, which was a bit disappointing. Next time we shall probably order from the 'hot' section and see what happens!
