"We went for restaurant week, where most participating restaurants have a fixed-price 3 course meal where you pick from a few options for each course. Nama on the other hand, gave you a little bit of everything on the menu, which was a nice surprise. There was certainly a lot of food for a reasonable price. The appetizers (a fried cauliflower, tomato cream soup and naan) were all quite tasty. The main courses (a paneer dish, butter chicken and a lentil dish) all were a little bland. They had some spices and flavoring, but not at the intensity we'd expect from an Indian restaurant. I'm not sure if it was jut the restaurant week menu or what, but it's almost like they were catering their dishes to people new to and unfamiliar with Indian cuisine. They didn't ask for a heat level when we ordered, either. The flavors were good, but just felt a little flat and underdeveloped. With ~25% more seasoning I think it could be quite good. I haven't written it off completely yet, but there are several very good Indian places in the city so it wouldn't necessarily be my first pick."

We ordered an appetizer and teo entrees. Appetizer came wuickly but we had to wait for an hour for our entree. Waiter informed us that they were under staffed. But it was Saturday night and being understaffed was surprising. We spent 100$ for this meal. The waiter and waitress were really good though and they apologized several times. Food was good but our hunger almost died by the time food came.

The food is very tasty!! However, on first introduction to the restaurant the bar was covered with to go boxes, the napkins used to wrap the silverware and dirty plates. This was the case for other tables in the restaurant. Once we were seated both the tables next to us had crumbs of leftover food or plates from the previous guest, they didn’t clean the until a new set of customers who needed seats came or you asked them to. Lastly the service is decent, they were accommodating for the most part, it may be do to the being short staffed.
