After some difficulty, we found the Restaurant. We were looking forward to set menu of £ 17.00 for Vegetarian and £ 17.95 for Non Vegetarian. When we asked for this, we were told that it is only for Take Away. The web-site does not make...it clear and we were very disappointed. The menu given was very expensive and service was poor as only one waiter was working and could not coupe. The vegetarian dishes we ordered was over charged and 12.5% service charge is not acceptable as we did not get what we wanted. The lacha paratha was very cold and they did not replace it and in the end we had to have garlic paratha. There was exceptional delays and we got very late, having started our dinner at 5.30pm. The train strike did not help. We think some honesty and transparency of the menu is required.More

We visited here during a short stay to london. The food is delicious. It’s a small restaurant and super cosy. Nice if you want to escape the crowds. We did pre book as I can imagine it’s popular. Even though they haven’t officially got a...kids menu this didn’t matter as our 8 year old thoroughly enjoyed trying abit of everything. The staff are really welcoming and we would definitely recommend for a tasty curry.More

Lovely food and friendly service. Good value meal and very enjoyable, Interesting menu. Small family run/friendly atmosphere which left us with a amile on our face.

Having stayed in Bloomsbury many times over the years, & at a nearby hotel twice now, I have no idea why we hadn't noticed this restaurant before - it's less than 5 minutes' walk from the hotel, ideal for dinner at the end of a...busy day full of walking. Delightful friendly staff, efficient & courteous service, & a really lovely menu with quite a few dishes that were new to us. A restaurant near where I live in the north east of Scotland, now sadly closed, was the first time I had experienced Indian 'fine dining' & Salaam Namaste was the second, & I was so pleased it more than lived up to the standard of my much missed local venue. You can mix & match starters or 'small plates' (my favourite way to eat), share dishes, pretty much do whatever takes your fancy choice-wise, which is lovely. Must admit to having onion bhaji & saag paneer - always my benchmark when eating in a new to me Indian restaurant - simply superb, & the saag paneer was a little differently prepared to what I've had in (many!) other Indian restaurants in various locations. Definitely on our list to return to, hopefully next year on our annual visit (if not before) & a huge thank you to everyone here for making our dinner such a delicious & enjoyable occasion.More

The food was excellent and reasonably priced. There is a full range of excellent curries. The service was always excellent. It was easy to make a booking. We ate there several times during our London Visit. The restaurant is slightly out of the way so...it avoids the crowds although it was always well attended.More

We were intrigued to see how the food would be based on the mixed reviews but were very pleasantly surprised. Having dined at Dishoom a few weeks earlier we found the veggie side dishes we had like the Dal and the saag to be as...good, if not better. Everything was very tasty and the staff were friendly. Would definitely return.More

A little gem with attentive staff and excellent dishes. We were happy with all our choices and will likely come back again if in the neighbourhood

5 out of 5 because the food and service was superb - never had Dry Crab before but it was lovely as a Starter. We ordered a Goan Sea Bass curry and a Lamb Banjara curry to share, which were both superb. Garlic Naans were...also nice and felt very guilty leaving most of them, as we were both stuffed. Staff very attentive and we had a really nice meal…More

Nothing special, average indian food in both taste, inovation, presentation and value. Expensive for what it is and a 12.5% service charge to make our night!

Sallam Namaste used to be an exciting 'destination' restaurant, presided over by an adventurous chef from Karachi who created a really distinctive fusion cuisine. He must surely have left, since it is now an industry-standard 'Indian' restaurant. Sauces are heavy, especially one combined with delicate...scallops. Portions of meat and fish are small-- part of the general price cutting in tough times. A meal for three with drinks cost over £180. Like many restaurants in this area it is drawing in very few midweek diners, and i fear for its future. Lovely waitstaff. But it is no longer exceptional, just OK.More

Many items in the menu were not available, this on a Saturday night! The quality of the food was very poor. I was served a different starter than the one ordered, and also a different main than the one ordered, this without telling me why...they had unilaterally changed my order! Couldn’t ask why as the waitress was rushed off her feet. The chicken was bone dry and tasteless, the pilau rice was tasteless, the prawns weren’t fresh! The only decent things we had were the poppadoms, the nan bread, and the onion bajis. Will never visit again!More

Came in as the smell was soo inviting whilst our son was in hospital. Was not disappointed. From the dips and home made poppadoms, tikka masala and chicken dhansak were soo full of taste and flavoured definitely recommend a visit. Friendly atmosphere and welcome ensured...we’d be returning again. Oh yes, and the price is very very good! Thank you for a great comforting and delicious meal. Sorry no time for photos….. an it all went!More
