Some things to consider during your visit:
-
Closed on Wednesdays: Namaste Inde does not open on Wednesdays, so plan a visit for Sunday through Tuesday or Thursday through Saturday to avoid a wasted trip.
-
Remember the Wine, If You Want It: Namaste Inde does not sell alcohol on site. If you would like wine with dinner, pick up a bottle at the SAQ across the street before you sit down.
- A Nut Allergy Notice Is Posted on the Menu: The printed menu notes that some dishes may contain nuts, including a korma sauce made with almonds and raisins. Worth flagging to staff ahead of time if anyone in your group has a nut allergy.
