Cafe Spice Namasté

A gem of a restaurant surrounded by tranquil water….leave the Excel and get your steps in, well worth the walk. Ms Pervin and Chef Cyrus won me with Garam Masala Old Fashioned 🥃 and personable family service. It’s as if you walk into their hip, modern home and sit at the kitchen table. Unreal! Tasting Tour….DO IT!!! Confession…. I am not a photographer but I am a global foodie!!!! Small bites of their most notable dishes. Thank you Michelin for the recommendation, elevated Indian…phenomenal!!!!

I took a chance and went looking for this place knowing and admiring the owners from TV. From outside the place looked welcoming and busy but not jammed for a Wednesday night. I was met by Mrs T. Who is both friendly and charming, no problem not booking and sat me at a window table with a view out across the water. Great menu and far from the traditional Indian variations we are all used to. After saying that though the dishes are very well explained and easy to gauge against those standard variations we are used to in regular Asian cuisine. Food was excellent and just obviously different knowing all was fully prepared in the kitchen to order. Home made everything from chutneys to accompany poppadoms through main courses to deserts, and all excellent! Cyrus was at the pass when I was leaving so I took the opportunity to speak, he was appreciative of the thanks and appeared friendly, he and his wife make a great team and make this place well worth a visit. I’ll definitely visit again.

While the place is at a nice location with a view the food preparation was not fresh and authentic at all. The restaurant served frozen samosa and bread after the heating it up. Given the high price but and not freshly cooked food the overall experience was not great for vegetarians.

I recently joined colleagues for dinner at the Cafe Spice Namaste. We tried the tasting menu and it was without doubt a culinary delight. The food was truly amazing, the spices authentic and not overpowering every dish served. The fresh ingredients hit all my tastebuds just right. Thank you Chef. We will certainly be back again. Highly recommended.

Sensational tasing food, really delicious on all counts. The Baigan Bhurta is the best Aubergine dish I have ever had anywhere. The Parsee Lamb Dhaansaak worthy of its reputation. A warm personal welcome from MR & Mrs T when we arrived and continued service from both of them throughout, which made it even more special. Home made Kulfi for desert reminded me why I first fell in love with this dish. The new restaurant is in a fab quiet location but has stunning views across the water and fabulous sunsets as we experienced. Everyone should visit - there is lots of parking and its very easy to reach via docklands light railway. I would highly recommend to anyone - Truly a Jewel. Go visit at all costs - Like all hospitality businesses they need our support and richly deserve it.
