Namaste Restaurant - München in München

One of the best Indian restaurants in the city. An insider tip that has spread, especially among Indians. The food is also much more authentic than other Indian restaurants. There are often special offers, often very hot and well-seasoned dishes, but if you have a weak palate it can quickly become too spicy. The highlight for many is the Hyderabadi-style biryani, but this is only available on weekends. For the average eater, one portion is easily enough for two people. The price is completely okay, the taste is interesting and something different. Definitely recommended.

Probably the best biriyani in Munich. I got the combo with Chicken Biriyani, two curries, and naan, and it was such a good deal. Amazing chai too

Not our taste, we know much better ones in Munich. Very slow service with language barriers. We expected much more from the Google rating.

Unfortunately the food was cold. I was a little disappointed, but it tasted good! But for the price you expect a smile and warm food

Great atmosphere as mostly Indians come here to eat. You feel like you're on vacation.

One of the finest Indian restaurants in Munich. Known for its Biryanis! If you wish to opt in for authentic Indian taste, do inform the same while ordering. Good food, good people!

Excellent food. I had mirchi bajji and Hyderabadi chicken dum biryani, tasted authentic. Certainly recommended.

South-Indian. Can expect food to be spicier than usual.

Pure India in the middle of Munich! A great surprise, here you only hear Indian or English... An Indian who is also popular with Indians can't be that bad. And indeed: everything is perfect! Always my pleasure!

The biryani is here is a must try! Really authentic and nice. One thing I did not like that in combo, the chicken ghee roast pieces were really just bones mostly. I wouldnt recommend the combos. I feel you can better value with individual dishes than combo

Namaste is the worst Indian restaurant I have ever been to in Munich. We called 2 hrs before to order biryani and it was confirmed but when we arrived they said its over and on saying that they confirmed it on phone, first they said they gave it to some other guest and later said they have biryani and served us rice mixed with chicken curry as biryani. And the chicken pieces were so bad, we travelled for more than an hour to reach the restaurant and that too with a baby and our experience was very bad.It was their fault and one of the staff was being so rude and arrogant. I think they should learn some hospitality skills. Spiceland is far far better both taste and hospitality wise.

Very good, reasonably priced food.

The best Indian restaurant visited in germany till now.. All of us liked it very much… The staff is very friendly. Mirchi bajji and all chicken varieties are highlights of the day….

If you want a chicken biriyani and not sabzi biryani or fried rice biryani in Munich this is the only option. The biryani here is pretty close to the original, with those biryani flavours. The quantity of the biryani is also a lot and most people would have a hard time finishing it (I am not one of those people). They sometimes skim on the amount of chicken in the Biryani, which tends to happen late at night when they are running short of it and everyone orders Biryani. The location is out of the way for most people and needs a real effort to reach. The vibe of the place is also very dull, it looks very old and needs a lot of change.

Great place to order indian. Tasty and good portion for a fair price!

We had reserved a table for two and we were given possibly the worst small table crammed between two other tables. Poppadoms were stale and not fresh, moreover we waited 10 mins for both our main courses to arrive at the same time. Food was fine, but otherwise I won't be back.

Loved eating here. Came here for the second time in a week. Staff is so friendly and service is very good. Highly recommended.

I would NEVER suggest to have any North Indian dishes over here , specifically never try Dam biryani, it is just masala rice !! Even their mango lassi was also full of essence . Completely disappointed !!

Went for dinner . Great to have Indian food while traveling.

Came here for lunch and ordered the Chicken Chettinad, a popular South Indian dish. It was delicious, but I was expecting it to be a bit more spicy and stronger in aromatics and herbs. It seemed a milder version of a traditional Chettinad, almost closer to a western version of an “Indian” spicy chicken curry. The food here seems very good and it’s definitely worth a visit 😃

Good Indian restaurant in Arabella Park area. Restaurant is located in Second floor and hence wheelchair and strollers are to be kept at ground level. Customer service is good. You can have Indian veg and non-veg dishes here. Drinks are also served. Can enjoy your dinner with family and friends.

Friendly service. However compared to other Indian restaurants in Munich, the food and portion sizes were quite average.

Ate biryani and dosa . Both were extremely tasty

Unfortunately not a proper restaurant, just a quick snack

The biryani here is truly delicious and close to the authentic ones we get in India. The south Indian dishes are really amazing. I highly recommend people in Munich to try here.

Usually, I get disappointed with South Indian cuisine due to being brought up eating Tamil food, but Namaste brings some of the best of our cuisine to the people of Munich. If you ever get to Munich, this is the spot for authentic Indian food and exceptional service. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Unfortunately we where too hungry to patiently take any pictures 😅

I was here for dinner with my friends. It's the second time I come to this restaurant. I have to highlight two dishes in particular, firstly the Hyderabadi Chicken Byriani (very spicy 🌶️), meat is tender and the rice tastes excellent 😊 and secondly, We had chicken lolipop as an appetizer! Very special and very good 🤤 Among other things, we had spicy fish (see photo) in a spicy sauce. I also ordered mango lassi, which I particularly love! 🫶 And then finally Indian Chai. Simply a must!! This one is a must try! 🤩 The only thing I don't like is that the waiters are too serious 😨. I don't like that that much... maybe 🤔 these could smile more often 🙂 Sending you positive vibes!! Maybe 🤔 that will help! 😜

Best place for biryani. Had a combo meal with chicken biryani, mutton korma , roti and seviyan, chicken 65 The chciken 65 was ok. Seviyan was not made properly.

The best Hyderabadi Chicken Biryani you can have Munich. Trust me, I have tried all the restaurants never had the real biryani taste except here… the best!!

We ordered from here multiple times online and dined in as well. Here's what I feel about the dishes: Chicken dum biryani - excellent Mutton dum biryani - excellent Veg dum biryani - good Veg fried rice, paneer fried rice - very good Gobhi Manchurian - average Paneer Manchurian - average Apollo fish - good the first time, but the fish tasted smelly the second time Chicken lollypop - worst. They served stale chicken and it felt chewy as rubber Plain dosa - very good Masala dosa - very good Podi dosa - average Paneer tikka - average Kesri chicken tikka - average Rava kesari - good Punugulu - good The quantities were good but except for dosas and biryanis which I highly recommend, it was an average experience. Overall rating: 3.5/5

The Biriyani is just “Chumeshwari 😘”. As it is written in the menu, “Mutton Biryani” is literally Mutton Biryani & not Lamb Biryani. Usually most of the restaurants name it as Mutton Biriyani but give Lamb instead.

This place serves authentic Hyderabad dumplings biryani. The food tastes very good with fair price and good portion.

very nice chicken biriyani and crispy corn. We also took pepper chicken but it was not so tasty.

Authentic Hyderabadi Biryani. Different from other restaurents. Some special items are only available here. Till yet not found in other restaurents.

Great food, a lot of Indians eat there too. The ambience is plain and simple, but the friendly service and excellent food more than make up for it...

The food was averagely good, I can only recommend it.

Hands down, the best place for Hyd style biryanis in Munich. Also serves authentic South Indian food especially Andhra style.

Very good Restaurants with south indian options.Biryani,chicken 65 is my favourite..

Very good cuisine, nice service, well connected by public transport despite being located far from the city center. Expats also like to eat here! Tip: Be sure to take a look at the menu of South Indian dishes: on the weekend there are two types of biryani (vegetarian & lamb), which are in great demand because they are really good.

Good food with new south indian options. We had rava dosa, Maisore masala dosa. Peanut chutney and sambar were very delicious.

Food is very tasty. Gobi Manchurian is very well made, crispy. The ambience is nice. Parking is available on the adjacent streets. From the street one has to walk inside a building complex, so the restaurant is not visible from any road. The service is quick and friendly. Overall a good experience.

Places was introduced to us by our dear friend Abhishek and he made us order all the good and tasty thing on the menu. Their weekend special menu is on different level. The chicken biryani with chicken masala and mutton masala take the flavours on different notch; the taste is unmatched to any restaurant found in Munich ( we have tried almost every biryani place) Pepper chicken was a hit among all of us. The desserts were unhinged - gajar halwa, pyasam, gulabjamun- really made me remember my time spent in south. Dosai was great too I would really recommend you guys to ask their recommendation and order. Also they improvise on taste as needed for vegetarians. We also had a veg set ordered Drinks were from the set so market grade tasting 😅

Best Food and service. Highly recommended for students.

Absolutely disappointing. I also suspect a hygiene problem here. Dishes and glasses were not clean. The furnishings are shabby and the floors of the restaurant, etc. were not cleaned at the time. For some it is authentic, for me it is a “NO GO”. The dishes cost an average of €15.

Food and service was good. A bit spicy for me :). Atmosphere was just ok.

The food had flavors similar to those in India. A good experience for those who like Indian cuisine.

Food is absolutely delicious. Loved the Butter Naan, chicken Chettinad, Dragon chicken and Corn fry(like a snack). If you are looking for good south Indian taste then this is the place.

Handown the best . looking for no other than this if you crave for Indian food during Munich visit . I loved it .

Was OK. The service still has room for improvement. The food was quite good. The terrace above Rosenkavalierplatz is beautiful.

Cynical review xx - Average restaurant slightly better than average Indian food (from an Indian perspective)

The interior of the restaurant is outdated

Fantastic taste. Authentic through and through. Great owner and helpful staff. One of the best in Munich. Their biryani is exactly what a poor soul needs which is deprived of authenticity. Starters are excellent, especially chicken majestic.

Loved the chicken dum biryani. I went specially for that and it was really worth it. Oh, the payasam was amazing too I must say.

Best place in munich to get authentic Hyderabadi biriyani!!

Everything very good. Happy to see that the place is improving very well in starters category. Biryani is always the best and no competition.

Donot know if they prepare biriyani with Chili or chili with biriyani. I had to have (on compulsion ) once to one of my friend's Invitation, after that I had next 4/5 hrs stomach pain following fire in toilet. Never ever I will touch any food from this Restaurant.

Unfortunately, the location is from the 70s/80s and therefore doesn't look inviting...everything is functional... But the food and the service are top!!!

Between Friday and Sunday there is a flat offer between 25 euros and 35 euros. Unfortunately the platter was too spicy for my taste and it's not possible without making it spicy. Service was very slow. Packaging costs 1 euro extra.

Unfortunately they were pretty ripped off. We had a voucher booklet that was valid and then we were told with the bill that they wouldn't take it today. The food was good, but we were pretty upset afterwards.

Quality of food has drastically improved.

This is an Indian restaurant where South Indian and North Indian dishes are available. For starters, Mirchi bajji, punugulu is the best choice. All kinds of roti, Biryani, Dosa available for the main course. Rava kesari, Gulab jamun and Carrot halwa are recommended for Desserts. The outdoor balcony dining is also available here. Ambience is pleasing.

This restaurant offers 0 respect for UberEats couriers, I do not recommend ordering food from this restaurant 👍 0 respect for couriers 👍 signed UberEats couriers

Nice place for south Indian delicacy. Food tastes authentic and one of my favorite Indian restaurant in München. It is a goto place if you are a fan of "Hyderabad sum biryani". Unfortunately it is only available on the evenings and weekends. Do call up before you dine there to know availability if you are up for it.

It' s a very nice restaurant and biryani recipes are unique and it is more than Hyderabad biryani

Maybe it is better in the evening.

Most authentic Indian food I have had Munich. Chicken Biryani tastes like something you would get in Hyderabad, really aromatic and tasty If you get a chance try the sweet Double ka meetha

The food was tasty, the service was a bit slow, but the prices are definitely too expensive.

Unfortunately the food was a disappointment. We ordered several lamb dishes (e.g. Tandoori lamb) and unfortunately we didn't taste any lamb at all. The meat was also very dry. The dishes had no vegetables at all (not even onions). Unfortunately the portions were very small and tasteless. The prices were very juicy. For the price you get significantly more from other Indians and the quality is also significantly better. Unfortunately a failure. The rice also had hardly any taste. There was also significant savings on the sauces. The prices are overpriced for what you get. A pity!

We had an excellent dinner tonight and food was fresh and taste was amazing. Service was excellent as well. It was one of the best dinners. Keep up the great job!!

Very tasty food and very friendly service.

People are very kind hearted, serving with dedication and totally pleasant environment enjoyed a lot.....

Going to lunch with colleagues. Tasty traditional cuisine. Smooth service.

Ordered 2 dishes to take away. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Even offered me a chai while I waited. (Thanks for that, the tea was very tasty). Both dishes tasted good. But, biryani (chicken) deserves a special mention. can recommend 100pc. The restaurant itself is beautiful and offers plenty of space to sit. Will definitely come back even if the murals and decorations are very cringe :)

I came to try the Dum biryani as it had been recommended to me by some Indian friends but they were out of stock the day I went. We ordered a Namaste Thali to share between two and we were more than satisfied. Good food, attentive and friendly service.

Food wasn't as amazing as it was pre-pandemic but is still good and atmosphere was great.

Authentic desi restaurant with authentic desi vibes. Food is delicious and served in good quantities.

Pretty good taste close to Indian taste

I liked the food and the variety of foods they have to offer.

Love this place when it comes to Indian food in Munich. It is located away from city center in a calm residnetial area. They have a wide vareity of south Indian food. They recently started Snack from Andhra Pradesh(south India) - Punugulu. It is simple superb. I have tried their Crispy corn as starter. It was good as well.

Great Indian dishes The staff and service are great

Excellent place with Indian traditional foods.

Dosa, vegetable biryani are good and price is ok too..

We went for dinner here with not much high expectations, similar to other Indian restaurants in Munich but it turned out to be very good. Their Mysore masala dosa and rawa dosa, Mysore chicken dosa was very nice, along with white chutney, Andhra style sambar and red chutney. Coconut chutney could have been more fresh with only coconut, it had a mix of groundnut I guess but tastes decent But the dish which stole the show for us was their Mirchi (chilli) bhajji, which was a starter; perfect to be accompanied with some drinks !

Best Indian I've ever eaten at! The food is super delicious!!

Food is bit too sour bit as it have little extra lemon. Rest the food is way better then lots of Indian restaurants in Munich.

excellent food!!! Very nice staff.

Good service, friendly staff, food is delicious and authentic and easily accessible

*Update* We tried a few more items from the menu, added below. It's a decent place but definitely a big room for improvement. We ordered - 1. Mango lassi and gobhi Manchurian which were nice 2. Kesari chicken: the portion was good but quite dry. A curry on the side would be appreciated. 3. Kadhai paneer: it was good but the paneer was a bit hard. 4. Chilli Paneer: it is actually very spicy 🥵 so be careful 5. Thali is a good option. A bit on the pricey side but a good option if you want to try different things. Overall decent food but a major bummer on the atmosphere. For pretty much the same price, other Indian restaurants offer a very good ambience.

Service and atmosphere was very good but the food was spicy without flavour. Rice was not quite right either. For the price it was not good value for money, unless you just ordered a drink and enjoyed the ambience.

Our experience was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! Would highly recommend this place. The food is very delicious and made freshly. We especially enjoyed the Chicken Dum Biryani, Mango Lassi, and the Gobi Manchurian. Our service was fairly quick and the atmosphere was wonderful as well. High variety of vegetarian options are there and the restaurant was highly kids and family friendly.

If you're craving some authentic South Indian flavors, Namaste is the spot. Their Hyderabadi biryani is a must-try – packed with flavor and cooked to perfection The blend of spices, the tenderness of the meat, and the fluffiness of the rice... And the starters? They'll transport you straight to the streets of India. One thing we loved is that they have options for everyone, including milder dishes for the kids. Plus, the quantity was decent, so you'll leave feeling satisfied. Namaste is a gem. Give it a try 🍽️

One of the best Hyderabad briyani in munich.but don't try other dishes ,not worth and tasteless eg: pepper chicken - refer second photo

I guess this place is popular for Veg and NonVeg Biryanis. We ordered Roti and Paneer Kulcha with Veg Korma. Crispy Corn is good. Veg Korma is prepared for locals. It’s made in coconut milk. The service needs a tad improvement. Ambience can be better.

I had dinner there on Friday evening and the place was full. Since I was only one person, they were still nice enough to free up a table. I can understand that you don't necessarily want to sit me in a seat for 4 people. The restaurant itself was well attended by Indians and that made me feel positive about the food. And I was right. I ordered grilled paneer and got a generous portion, which tasted really fantastic. The waiter asked me several times if it tasted good and if I was satisfied. Main course + drink €25 👍 Card payment possible

I've been three or four times, always at weekends. The famous dum biriani is pretty good if you have a huge appetite. I also had a splendidly peppery Chicken Chettinad. Other S.Indian curries were not very exciting. Service is fine, and I will probably go back and try some of the more conventional N.Indian dishes to make up my mind. Edit: the S.Indian starters and dosas are excellent and I should have stayed with them, but today I tried a fish pakora and chicken vindaloo from the regular menu. Pretty similar to every other Munich restaurant, and not good.

A good restaurant with very nice hosts. The restaurant is obviously popular with the Indian expat community. A good sign from a culinary point of view that also corresponds to my experience. I had the mixed grill platter. It was very tasty; well seasoned and gently grilled. Absolutely recommended, even if the interior is a bit old. But that applies to the entire Arabella Park 😉

This is one of the best Indian restaurants around münich .We ordered their signature dishes- chicken dum Biryani and vegetable dum Biryani. Both were extraordinary in taste .Suggest everyone to try this restaurant.

very good food!! Definitely a creative touch to the food.Only downside is crowdy and noisy. Service is bit inattentive. But food dominated everything. Can’t reduce the star for Negative side.

I had a great experience at this place. The food is delicious. This feels like one of the best south indian restaurants in münich. The curries had a good unique taste like you get back home. Service was top notch. We tried the chicken Dum Biryani, Dragon chicken , chicken curry with bone and Masala dosa .Main course was the Dhaba style chicken curry which has a thin dark color gravy. The garlic naan and tandoori roti were cooked as we had requested them to make it thin and crispy. highly recommend and will love to visit this place again , though on the expensive side - it feels completely worth the money!
