Namaste Nepalese and Indian Restaurant — Restaurant in Wolverhampton

I have never had a bad experience at a Nepalese restaurant and am a huge fan of the people and their food. Namaste is no exception and we had a good experience here. A few things could have been better for us though. It's a lovely place, light and clean but the music left a bit to be desired. Being a different cuisine to the more common Bangladeshi, you should interrogate the nice looking menu to inform your choices. The dips with the poppadoms and starters are rather meagre, you appear to get the same amount for a table of two as you do for a table of four. The sheekh kebab was coarse ground meat, quite hot with more garlic than spicing, similar to a Pakistani recipe than say Bangladeshi. It was a generous portion though. The pilau rice was fantastic and not the common tri coloured fare that some restaurants think is appropriate. We tried two different curries off the specials choice. On arrival, it was hard to tell them apart in look and taste. They were both very nice, moist chicken, layered flavours that grew and lingered, but also a bit salty. The draught Everest was a great accompaniment. Service was super friendly but a little too quick for us. The prices are a little higher but I guess that's the way they...

Nice ambience Great service I was expecting a lot more Nepalese cuisine on the menu. Due to only a few items I was sceptical about their expertise in Nepalese skills and went for Indian items. Chicken Lollipop - Controversially it was a dry starter. I would like to ask the Chef what is the difference between this dish and chicken pakora? Is it just the lollipop structure? To my understanding and what I have eaten in many other places chicken lollipop is supposed to be tossed with lightly sauce making it more juicy. But here it was served as dry starter. I was slightly disappointed. However the taste was ok but it was more like chicken pakora. Garlic Naan and Garlic Chilli Naan - Both were good in taste. But could the management justify such difference in price just because one of them has some chilllis. Desi Bakhra - It was bit tangy due to excess use of tomatoes. The quantity and number of lamb pieces were decent. Taste wise I would definitely expect a lot better from a Nepalese restaurant. Although service and ambience are crucial parts but without great taste I couldn't give more than 2star for...

Came here for a family dinner, I had booked online a few hours before on a Saturday so was good to get a table. However on arrival the front man just appeared to rush us, kept reiterating that we only had 2 hours, which is fine but he kept constantly coming to us to remind us, didn't see him do this with anyone else. He was annoying, however all the other staff were fine, really nice in fact, so I won't let one man ruin the service vote.

We all made our orders and the food came in decent time, a coupe of items got missed but was no biggy, I guess I can do without popppdams... I had a shahi paneer which I found really tasty with some garlic naan. l tried the momos, they were OK. Everybody really enjoyed they're meals, one of the vegan family members had the vegan lamb and really enjoyed it. I would say the food is nice, the menu has a nice range doesn't just stick to the traditional Indian dishes so that was a nice change.
