We had a great experience at Namaste Restaurant. The food was delicious and full of flavor. The menu is long, with many options, including vegetarian dishes, chicken, and goat meat. There is something for everyone.

The restaurant is big and does not feel crowded, even when it is busy. The service was excellent. Two friendly ladies served our food and checked on us often to make sure we were happy. They brought out dishes one at a time, as requested, so no one had to wait too long for their food.

The atmosphere was nice, with Indian music playing in the background. It added to the experience of enjoying authentic Southeast Indian food. The staff also asked if we had any suggestions, which was thoughtful.

The prices were reasonable, and the food was worth every dollar. Namaste Restaurant is a great place to enjoy tasty food and excellent service.

Our recent visit to Namaste Mate for a food tasting event turned out to be a delightful culinary experience. Located conveniently on Henley Beach Road, the restaurant boasts a spacious, well-laid-out dining area, ideal for both intimate gatherings and larger events.

We began with the Paneer Dosa, a standout dish elevated by their signature ginger-lime chutney—a revelation of zesty brightness balanced with subtle heat. The sambar accompanying it was gently spiced, steering clear of the overt tanginess often found elsewhere in Adelaide. The dosa itself was crisp, and the paneer filling was delicately seasoned, achieving a perfect harmony.

The Prawn Masala was the showstopper. Featuring impressively plump, fresh market-sourced prawns, the dish offered an exquisite depth of flavour, with a luscious masala base that was both aromatic and rich. The chef’s use of fresh seafood truly set this dish apart. We’re already eager to return for the Crispy Prawn Fry, one of their most popular offerings.

The Hyderabadi-style Goat Biryani delivered traditional spices with tender meat, while the Schezwan Noodles struck a fine balance—smoky, mildly piquant, and featuring perfectly caramelised onions. The Veg Manchurian, especially its umami-rich gravy, impressed us more than the Chilli Chicken.

Overall, Namaste Mate excels in nuanced, flavourful cuisine where spices are celebrated but never overwhelming. If you appreciate refined Indian-Chinese fusion with finesse, this is your spot. Warm thanks to the chef and manager for their hospitality—we’ll definitely be back.

I really loved all the food served.
The food was Soulful, tasteful and delightful which made me quite full.

I really loved the idly Vada Sambhar. I really dig the Malai Chicken they served simply mind blowing. The karahi goat was splendid, simple yet very balanced taste of spice and flavours which bowled over my palate.

I guess one the very best Indian restaurants I've had food here in Adelaide. It's a hidden gem, coz it's not in the city.

I would also rate the Dosa/ south Indian much higher than Chatkaz (very blend and tasteless; overhyped). I really liked the South Indian food here although I am not sure it's a South Indian restaurant. The menu is very wide and serves North Indian, South Indian and Indo Chinese delicacies.
I am delighted and will surely come back for more.

I have ordered chicken 65 and goat biryani’s . The biryani rice was really made of cheap quality basmati rice as you can see in the photo and there was no taste at all nor spicy or no salt for both biryani’s . Especially chicken 65 biryani is literally made of curry and rice which was not even tasted as At least like pulao. The chicken meat looks like 3-4 days old and it’s been clearly known when you consuming it .I kindly request think before you order from this restaurant .

The mutton is not at all cooked properly and There was no taste at all from the food and we have thrown away the food and my stomach was totally upset .

Don’t fool while looking at the reviews as mostly are self reviewed

I hope management look at this comment and takes further action .

It was a waste of time and money for us and kindly think before coming to this restaurant

The staff were very accommodating—special kudos to Priya, who assisted us during our dine-in experience. The ambience was cozy, and we especially liked the décor and the chandelier, which added a nice touch of elegance.

We thoroughly enjoyed the dishes we ordered: Tandoori Chicken (Half), Three-Way Chicken Tikka, Prawns Tikka, Chicken 65 Biryani, and Cheese Naan. For dessert, try the Gulab Jamun Tart—it was a delightful twist on a classic Indian sweet.

Interestingly, the menu also features some Chinese-inspired options—likely influenced by the regional borders between India and China. On this occasion, we tried their Schezwan Chili Garlic Fried Rice, which was a flavorful addition to our meal.

Overall, a great dining experience!
