Namaste Indian Restaurant

Had a great dinner early on a Sunday evening. Excellent service, delicious food, and the welcoming atmosphere of a friendly neighborhood cafe. Will definitely be back when I'm in Cologne again

Off the beaten path from central Cologne is this great little place. Authentic food, big portions and spiced up when requested. A word of warning, if you are in a rush, this is not the place to go, if not it is worth the wait.

Went for a trip and we looked for an Indian restaurant. Not in the tourist center and not amazing space, but nice food. Many options and kind people! Enjoyed the food, even though it wasn't the best ever! Payed 25€/person and we're full! Ver carta

The food is absolutely delicious, the staff is very helpful and in a good mood. Also the preparation of the food does not take long. The menu has many different options. Adaptation of the dish is also possible. Very satisfied, will return again.

They say it closes at 12 i went in at 1110 and was shocked at how rude the owners were to me they wanted to go home they said no food was available basically pressured me into chugging my beer then leave really cant comment on food just attitude towards payin customer which was horribly unacceptable

I visited this place twice over carnival weekend, it's away from the crowds for much needed peace and quiet. Both times I ordered a soup and a main, delicious in flavour and when I asked for spicy, that's exactly what I got :-) Great service, can't recommend this place enough. Thank you for your hospitality. Ver carta

Some of the best Indian food I've ever had, the service was impeccable, the lovely lady owner some English I speak a little German, everything was freshly cooked well spiced with balanced flavors, Couldn't eat it all and I have a good appetite!Most mains cone with rice or nan Poppadoms are complimentary The drinks are reasonable, 3.00 euro for a .5 l beer (Heineken)Deserts include Gulabjaman rice pudding and kulfiIf coming to Cologne its about 3/4 of a k walk from the Cathedral

A gem of a findAfter 25 years of coming to Cologne in January I happened upon Namaste having searched through your posts.I was in need of something spicy as for the next 7 days it will be meat meat meat and whilst always good, pretty boring.I walked 4 mins from my hotel to this gem.Excellent food served in atmospheric surroundings. Tonight it's been fullOf young thoughtful people from Cologne, again a dream as most places are full of boring business guys discussing the day.This is a MUST for all Indian food lovers who come her and will be on my hit list until I stop coming here.Long wait to find this place but well with it

I have eaten at Namaste 4 times in the last 6 months. It's a short walk from my home and they always have room for us. I did make a reservation one time but otherwise just walked in and asked to be seated. The staff is friendly and speaks way better English than I speak German. That makes it easy! The food is fabulous! We have ordered numerous menu items, all tasty. The only item I don't care for is the cracker type thing they bring when you first sit down. It comes with 3 sauces, all different but pretty spicy. Don't fill up on this! When the food comes, nan bread will soon be served. All carbs should be consumed in the form of nan and/or rice at this place. Yum! Be sure to specify how spic... Ver carta
