Butter Chicken with the Coconut Rice was amazing! The Mango Lassi was almost like a mango smoothie, wonderfully delicious

Hands down the best Indian food in Monterey county! We usually go to the buffet on the weekends but today I craving butter chicken and samosas for lunch. The butter chicken is always so tender and flavorful. Love the samosas. The dough is flaky and the filling is tasty. Yum!

Food was good. But the 2 cups of Masala Chai we ordered were only half full and we were really looking forward to enjoying the chai. Masala Chai . We ordered a lot of food too so it just felt unprofessional. Lamb BiryaniChicken BiryaniPalak Paneer Chicken MOMO Vegetable MOMO Gulab Jamun Cucumber Raita Mango Lassi Garlic Naan was our full order. It was very delicious so highly recommend these dishes.

The lamb Lamb Shank Vindaloo
was very good and nicely spicy but not overwhelming (I ordered Indian Spicy).
The Butter Chicken was amazing, I ordered medium and it wasn't spicy to me.
the Butter Naan had the best texture of any I've had recently.

It's not just the best Indian restaurant in the Monterey, Pacific Grove, Carmel area, it's one of the best restaurants in the area of any cuisine. My wife and I have been delivery regulars for 8 years. It's consistently delicious and wonderfully complex--such an adept use of spice. We've tried at least 80 restaurants here, and continue to try new ones. We rank Namaste as one of our three favorites.
