Namaste ‘Delicious’ India - Edit
Namaste India should really have been named Namaste “DELICIOUS” India! A visit to this great find on Bassac street is well worth it.
Read moreIt’s a modern, contemporary Indian restaurant and the only Indian restaurant on Bassac
street as far as my eyes could see. From the moment I walked into Namaste India, I liked the vibe and colours (a deep acqua marine cobalt blue) - kinda chic to say the least. The restaurant is owned by a local North Indian based in Cambodia.
For my meal, as a vegetarian/ pescetarian I ordered the tandoori paneer which the staff told me was homemade and utterly delicious - cooked to perfection. I love Indian cheese paneer (as a largely vegetarian/vegan) and this was quite delectable … For my main dish I ordered the fish biriyani which was good, with tender chunks of white river fish which were so soft, moist and quite tasty. A very good biriyani indeed, which could have used a tad more salt and perhaps cumin.
Other recommended dishes from the chef and staff were: pepper prawn tandoori, paneer butter masala, paneer tikka multani, palak paneer, butter chicken, chicken tikka masala, cheese naan, tandoori chicken, lamb bhuna gosht, kadhai lamb, lamb keema matter, biriyani (veg, chicken, lamb and fish) dal makhani and dal tadka. For drinks go for the lassis - both mango and sweet lassi. I personally loved my mango lassi.
For the dessert I had the gulab jamun which was very authentic and tasty. Yabadaba do – I’m like Scooby with wheels on to try this all-time favourite dessert treat. The phirni and masala chai were also recommended by the staff/chef.
I found the service at Namaste India was professional and quite prompt. The restaurant has a full bar with both alcohol and a wine list available.
Over in the BKK1 district of Phnom Penh, there is another branch of Namaste India which is a two-storey restaurant and much bigger than the Bassac street spot which is only one floor and quite cosy and more to my preference. Due to its size make a reservation as the tables are only around 10 in Bassac Street in total, including a few outdoor spots.
Namaste India Bassac Street is open from 10am to 1045pm for 7 days a week.
Enjoy your dining visit to this delectable Indian dining treat!

Delicious food! - Edit
It's a very nice (a bit fancy) place. The staff is very friendly and the food was phenomonal. It's a bit more expensive but was definitely worth it.
