We had a fabulous evening at Namak. The food was delicious as always and the service was the best yet, being just attentive enough, giving us time to chat, choose and eat at leisure. The restaurant had a lovely atmosphere and there’s 25% off food in January so if you haven’t been bow’s a good time to try it. We will be back again!

Great staff support really kind and helpful. I found from my last visit a few years ago the afternoon high Tea was not as I expected in terms of the food selection- open table doesn’t advise what’s included especially that free top ups finish at 4pm ! I found that the drinks option was limited as they only offer rose lassi and chai in the past I had a choice with many other options for the savoury selection - I found the food was good but the selection on the menu could have been more as they only offered fish pakora would have loved an onion or veg pakora Great helpful staff
