Frommer's Review

In 2004, this unassuming restaurant, which features cuisine from the region of India's North Frontier, moved to this more central location near the Museum of Scotland. But that's about all that has changed. The feeling is still relaxed, and the cooking excellent. Unlike so many Indian restaurants, Namaste doesn't have a menu with 200-plus dishes. Instead it concentrates on a select number, whether the succulent tandoori fish starter or a spicy lamb jalfrezi. The vegetarian options are good, as well, with the black lentil stew (Dhal Mahkni) particularly recommended. Casual and cozy, Namaste is also open for lunches in the summer Monday to Friday.

Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
