About

Namaste Cafe pairs Nepalese and Indian curries with street-food dishes such as pani puri, Chiya Chili Potatoes, and jackfruit bamboo-shoot curry; its menu clearly marks vegan dishes and items that can be made vegan. The house-turned-restaurant has a front patio and in-house chai, while reviews note that made-to-order meals can take a while, especially at dinner.
