Delish!! Opening day today! They have balloons. Taking pictures of customers. Exciting new location! I first found out about this place via my friend's birthday. She had a ton of food catered from here. She live in Bothell and she got it from Namaste Bothell. There was enough food trays to feed a hundred people and there were 40+ of us. Food was amazing! And spicy but still flavorful. And she's Indian so she knew what to order. There was so much food. Like home cook food. I usually discover dishes and places from all my Indian friends. It's a good perk :) Goat biryani: this is very flavorful! Rice was perfect and so was the meat. With perfect heat. Chicken dum biryani: even tastier. The rice was so flavorful! And spicy. Vegetable biryani: this has a lot of veggies and has a sour taste to it. More South Indian I was told. But still good. Goat curry: this was my favorite dish. So spicy and good. You can choose your spice levels. Chicken curry: milder but still good. Creamy paneer curry and few other vegetarians curries: they were all good. Goat curry being my favorite. Appetizers: the chicken lollipop, fried peppers and few other fried items were also there. I liked the fried spicy peppers! it was a good 35-40 minutes drive from downtown Seattle so I didn't go back as often. I've tried their Redmond location too. Food isn't as good as Bothell one. But now in pandemic, I've been ordering takeout a lot from Bothell lately. The online ordering is great. I can order the night before for next morning pickup. It's pretty convenient. And now this location! It's even better. Take 520 from downtown settle and I can be here in 20 minutes or less. They have grand opening special today for 20% off all order. Their website for Bellevue ( this location is also up). I like their online orders. Just like food delivery apps minus third party taking so much from the business. There's plenty of parking here. It's in the back of crossroad mall where few restaurants are. Easy peasy. Inside looks great too but I'm ok with takeout right now. Great new location! Try their biryanis! It's pretty great. And they have family packs: perfect for that outside picnic and can feed about 6-8 people. And the spiciness is just great. What's not to like?

Cute and charming Weekend Buffet, food was high quality warm juicy spicy and hot! Decent bargain priced at $15.99 before tax and tip etc, the options where slightly limited, per say (If one wants to see it that way) not in a bad way at all because what they did have and offer most certainly delivers the goods! Customer service from the staff was friendly and warm. Seating booths where comfortable and modern nice. Atmosphere clean comfortable and casual. I love and adore quality legit lunch buffets and this is certainly one of them looking forward to next time! Ps. (Hint, Hint), I am grateful as another option that these guys have an affordable bargain buffet at all and that, Currently and maybe for the time being, it's not a giant and long imperfect line wait (when one and or a group may not always be in the mood for that part and or sometimes aspect of an eatery buffet experience) to get in like "other" "great&awesome" places also! -St.Rick

I ordered from Uber eats. And I am highly disappointed. To begin with, they have listed themselves under 3 names - Namasthe, Hyderabad Biryani Cafe Nepalese and Hyderabad Biryani Cafe Asian. Selling the same food under different names, is deceiving, because it's hard to know the actual reviews of the restaurant.I ordered Special Masakalli Chicken Biryani - Family Size. And I am so sorry to say this, but the quantity difference between regular and family size is negligible and they charged double the price of regular. When I mentioned this to the manager at restaurant, they were like, this is what we have. And suggested I should have paid more and ordered 1/4 tray. What a joke!DO NOT GO HERE!

This was one of my favorite indian dinners I've had in a while. We showed up for a very early dinner 5:30 and we were the only ones in the restaurant and asked if we could dine in. Although the ambience could be a bit improved, our food was amazing!We were first served with some freshly fried papadums (complimentary) and ordered 3 dishes. Paneer Tikka Kabobs, Malai Kofta, & Egg Biryani! I asked for the curry & egg biryani to be spicy and it definitely was Malai kofta since its a sweeter curry base had the perfect sweet creamines with a hit of spice after. The koftas were so delicious as well! The naan I ordered with it was buttery, soft & warm.The egg biryani masala was great for very spicy eaters like me but I decided to also mix in some white rice because I added the biryani gravy as well. The paneer kabobs didn't come on kabob sticks but came put fajita style instead, which I probably prefer. The real dish looked much better than the photo and has an amazing char on them.All in all, was a great dinner and will definitely become a go to spot for me in Bellevue.

Ordered DoorDash from here. It took over fifty minutes for my order to arrive and my Tandoori Chicken was burnt and tasted like rubber. I got the Gobi Manchurian as well and the portions were ridiculously small...

I am always in the hunt for the best biriyani in 100 mile radius of Seattle for a while namaste was the one when they were in Bothell.They started becoming big and charging more which is understandable. But now they are cutting portions and compromising on quality.If you eat with your hands the Indian way, u will observe a yellow food color residue which was not a problem before.The quantity of chicken 65 in chicken 65 biriyani is evidently reduced as a cost cutting measure. At this point it is just rice with scraps of fried chicken on top.I have to start my search for another go to biriyani place again.Please reply to this with suggestions if you have any.
