Namaste India Norwich — Restaurant in Norwich

Visited Thursday evening (24/08/2017), food quality was very poor, and food hygiene is very poor. There were fine grained mud in the food served. You can feel this grinding b/w our teeth when we eat.. Initially we thought it was some coriander that might not have been properly washed and took them off the food, but later on realised it was in everything we ate.. The ladies serving didn’t know much, the chef fellow from upstairs and another gentleman downstairs seems to recognise the problem and accepted that the coriander was not washed.. If they don’t wash the veg they cook, you can imagine what you are eating.. I am an Indian from India, living in London and cook Indian food at home and have visited many authentic Indian restaurants all over the UK and have to admit this kind of serving, muddy food is the first I have ever seen. Even Bangladeshi or Pakistani restaurants server better food than this. The Paratha they offer is not even made in the restaurant, as its store bought and I clearly recognise it as I bring them from the store and make them at home in emergency (not normally) and they serve them for a hefty price.. For the price they charge, they should be making fresh paratha in the restaurant and serve hygienic, properly washed food. So in short, if you can avoid this place, please do so, as you are not missing anything. Go elsewhere to eat quality and healthy...

A vegan friend recommended Namaste India so when we were in Norwich for the day we thought we'd give it a try for lunch. The four of us were greeted warmly by the woman host and offered a choice of tables. Once seated we were given the menus and left to peruse. There was lots of wonderful sounding dishes and eventually we opted for onion bhajis, Saag aloo gravy, Kaju curry, pav bhajis, vegetable biryani and a plain rice. The waiter did attempt to boost our order with some recommendations of his own but happy with our choice we declined. After about 20 minutes our order was delivered to the table. The sights and smell of the food was mouth watering and we dug in hungrily taking samples of each dish. Everything was wonderful and tasted beautiful with the perfect balance between spice, chilli warmth and flavour. Once every dish and plate were empty we asked for the bill, £54 for drinks and food. We felt this was very reasonable at £13.50 per person for a lovely vegetarian Indian meal. Once the bill was paid the male and female hosts chatted to us warmly before we left which added to our...

I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE , YOU WILL SPOIL YOUR MOOD AND MONEY TOO.

Food come after 1hr, ONE MAN ARMY 💪 He's manager He's waiter He's bartender he's everything on floor Managing alone with he's self, I really appreciate how he handled the situation.

I do not like plain paratha and lachha paratha, they are literally scam, both are same , with different prices.

What they do buying frozen paratha , which is in dhough form.. in 3 pound you will get 20 they sale 1 for 3.45 they just cooked inside the house , the most funny thing is ,they don't know how to cook that frozen dough also ...which comes burnt or raw.... I have pics too I was very disappointed I caught that just because I am chef .

They only thing I don't like is ,if they are charging 3.45 pounds for that single piece paratha make in house and sever what is should be ......I highly recommend do not sell this paratha , which is not worthy for this price and not fresh too .... because guests is not expecting this on name of "India" we have really good cuisine please respect that...
