Quick info
About Namaste - Authentic Indian Restaurant
Namaste on Osborne Road in Southsea is an Indian restaurant serving authentic Indian food across a menu built around familiar regional dishes. The kitchen works with a traditional range, from curries and biryanis to tandoori grills, with masala chai served alongside the meals. The room sits on a busy road close to the seafront, set up for sit-down dining with table service throughout the day and into the evening. Counter ordering is not the format, and meals are plated rather than packed for takeaway. The space takes walk-ins, and the team runs the floor directly rather than through a booking system. The menu keeps to established Indian restaurant staples rather than a fusion line, and the chai gives the room a steady, grounding finish to the meal.

Customer Review Summary
The negative reviews are equally forceful and cluster on a single point: the food itself, which they describe as tasteless, really bad, and not worth the money, with multiple reviewers urging others to skip the visit. No specific complaints about service, hygiene, or safety appear in these accounts. Across both sides, the kitchen's output is the central point of contention, and reviewers' verdicts on it fall into two clear camps.
