Namaste India Bistro

Great atmosphere and wine. Tapas leave a little to be desired. Just meat and bread (not toasted) on the charcuterie.

What a hidden gem! So easily missed, great vibe and an unexpected perk: all the women customers in this bar are so well dressed!

This place is super cute and cozy! The vibes are adorable. The wine selection is very broad and well rounded. Also the snacks are so good! I got the salmon and it was so good. Can’t wait to come back with friends and my boyfriend.

If you’re looking for an impressive wine list with offers from all over the world, this is your place. I visited from out of town and the staff was great, the atmosphere fun and comfortable and $2 off glasses on Wednesdays when I visited. Definitely recommend.

Very cute little place. Cudos to the two cute gals Kayley, and Madeline. They did an outstanding job on our food and beverage service. The wine and beers were good too.

Cute little spot right in the middle of everything but you forget that when you’re sitting at one of their cozy little tables. Live music, daily drink specials and friendly service make this my new favorite place.

Thank you for the amazing service!!! Amazing Froze and wine. We so appreciate Lauren and Angelina who helped us have a wonderful night!

Super cute house-turned-wine bar with great vibes, excellent customer service & waitstaff, and a curated wine selection to pair with their selection of cheese & charcuterie. I’m so glad we checked it out! We’re making plans to come back soon! Definitely a cute and comfy date night spot.

The coziest wine bar in Austin - the place for meaningful, quiet conversations, subtle local live music, first or 100th dates, small groups, or solo work time with a glass of wine. Fantastic wine list, tapas - like cheese, meats, pizzas, and Mediterranean shareables, and the best vibe.

Loved it soooooooooo much!!!!!!!!!!! Gteat workers, great atmosphere, great wine, great cheese and crackers!!! Wow! Lots of specials every day! Even live band Thursdays.

Love the wine and charcuterie board combo!! Really cute and cozy place for a date night or night with friends. Also servers are very friendly

This place is so cute and cozy. I definitely want to bring my husband for a date night. The staff was friendly, atmosphere/music was great and my drink (hibiscus) was very yummy.

Love the wine selection and ambiance!

I ordered the cucumber fizz and it was amazing! The atmosphere is incredible so cute and cozy would be great for a date night. Will definitely be returning!

If you want a cozy, chill hangout spot to sit with friends and enjoy some drinks....this is a great choice. Bring your well-behaved furry companion and its like you're right at home. I thought service was very friendly, happy hour was great, and they served the right amount of appetizers for our drinks. Indoors is comfy but can be cold, bring a small jacket or wear pants. Outdoors is perfect with lots of shade this time of year. Small parking lot in the back for probably 6-8 cars. We'll be back with friends.

Stumbled upon this cozy wine bar with plenty of seating and lovely hospitality. Jonathan took great care of me; curated a flight of wines and introduced me to the first orange wine (not pictured) that I actually enjoyed! You won’t regret checking this place out. Great wine & great vibes.

Cute place, indoor and outdoor seating, and a small parking lot in the back. The atmosphere is cozy, and their selection of wine is fantastic, the staff always helpful in making the right selection. Have nee several times now with groups of varying sizes, and have always been accommodated. Would recommend a reservation for larger groups.

This is my fave wine-down and chill place w the ladies. Great wine selection for everyone’s palates. Lots of seating and private little nooks to offshoot and read or chill solo with some good wine! The décor and furniture are all so fun with eclectic boho vibes — very well thought out.

How adorable is this place!? Super cute. Delicious shareables (we had truffle popcorn and pesto baked brie), friendly service and super cute!! Can't wait to get bakc here.

Yum! The cutest place, great drinks & food with reasonable pricing and very friendly service. Highly recommend!

My husband and I were here at the moment, for the first time! This place is really cute and love the way the setup was! We just here for a drink!!!!

Incredibly cute and creative. Frosé is bright and refreshing. The Mediterranean summer wine flight is excellent, so well rounded and perfectly picked - the Sicilian Pet-Nat is the only thing I ever want to drink again. The Mountain white flight is also a good choice for bright minerality. Loved The Trio & Polka Dot pizza - the price point on the pizza was a little expensive but definitely don’t skip on the salty snacks!

I just want to say YOU ALL SUCK when it comes to delivery orders. I paid $38 for this? You all definitely over charged me. My meats missing, my mustard….missing. How could you charge me $6.50 for 6 glazed pecans? I bet if I arrived in person it never would’ve looked like this. Absolutely deplorable. I know y’all have bigger to go ramekins that you could have used because y'all used them for my olives and cornichons…..🙄 Edited: Kerry is truly compassionate and caring towards my order being wrong. What once was a frown was turned into a smile. I might not do any more to go orders, but I would love to visit and dine at your establishment. Plus the ambience it’s totally my style. Thank you for going above and beyond to rectify my order. You have created a loyal customer ❤️

The best wine bar in Austin! Have been coming here for a couple of months, and the food is amazing! The staff are super knowledgeable about their wine selection and they’re super sweet! We love it here!

Such a sweet gem! Love the $8 Monday night wine-by-the-glass special paired with an inspired open mic full of talent! And the interior design is on point!👌Hello floral wallpaper and velvet chairs with macrame wall hangings and wicker side tables! Love!

Love the interior design of the place! Also, I really appreciate the wine descriptions for all the wines they have in stock. Like yes, I want this fruit forward Rose with notes of melon and pear. This place is perfect for girl hangs and dates!

Patio area is very colorful and adorable. Wraps around side to accommodate larger groups. Wrought-iron chairs and tables with umbrellas, and wooden benches along the sides with cozy pillows and padding add the cozy vibe. Inside is just as quaint. Front porch has live acoustic music on many nights. Large selection of wines and beers.

This is the cutest little chill wine bar. My friend and I were in town for the weekend and wanted a low-key place to go — House Wine came through big! We found it through an Instagram ad of all things. The wine selection is great—they had Txakoli, which I love but rarely see at wine bars. The snack platters are the perfect amount of food and have lots of fun fixings—the cheese platter had chocolates and grapes and figs, plus the cheese. I wish I lived nearby—I would put this in my regular rotation!

Wow. I’m hesitant about sharing because I don’t want to give away my new favorite spot! This place has exceeded my highest expectations. Rachel was the warmest, friendliest bartender I’ve met in Austin, and Karrie (the owner, might be misspelling) was the sweetest. There was adorable seating inside and open, fun seating outside for the live music that we experienced. It felt so Austin and Greek at the same time! There is no doubt we have become fans. :)

Amazing live music !! The atmosphere and staff made me feel so at home. It’s a great place to grab a cocktail. Rachel was amazing with her recommendations and Carrie the owner was so welcoming. will definitely be coming back!!

Absolutely obsessed with this place. If you love natural wine, cozy vibes, and a little magic sprinkled into your night, this wine bar is it. The wine selection is thoughtfully curated—funky, fresh, and approachable—with staff who genuinely know their stuff and are happy to guide you to your perfect pour. The charcuterie and tapas are just as impressive (the savory baked brie is my favorite 🤤). Add in live music that sets the mood without overpowering conversation, tarot card readings that are equal parts fun and insightful, and an insanely cute aesthetic, and you’ve got a spot that feels special from the moment you walk in. Can’t wait to come back!

This little gem is hidden near Fresa’s on 1st St. and I’m so glad I found it! If you want a cozy, relaxed place to have some wine with friends, this is the spot. They have an amazing wine selection — over 50 wines from all over the world — and the staff is super friendly and really knows their stuff. The vibe is boho-chic with comfy furniture, cozy little nooks, and an atmosphere that is so relaxing that it makes it difficult to leave. The patio is also great and dog-friendly, which is a big plus here in dog-loving Austin! They also serve cocktails and great food. The boards are beautiful and absolutely delicious, the handmade pizzas are amazing, and you can even make your own s’mores for dessert. This place checks all the boxes for me — great wine, food, atmosphere, and service. I’ll definitely be back soon (probably with a few friends in tow)! 🍷🐶

We love the new location. The staff is so friendly and helpful with suggestions. Whether you're new to wine or an experienced connoisseur, check it out. We enjoyed the cheese board and bottle special for Labor Day weekend.

House Wine is a great option for anyone looking for a high-quality, affordable wine. The selection of wines is diverse and changes regularly, ensuring that there is always something new to try. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly, making the experience even more enjoyable. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting, making it a great place to unwind after a long day or to spend time with friends. Overall, House Wine is a fantastic choice for wine lovers and is highly recommended.

Cozy little place that gets killed chill out Hampton wine and for beer can order a pizza I ordered a pizza there the pizza was about average not really anything spectacular they have little desserts that were pretty tasty and it time to have loud music so I guess the best time I would go there as when they enjoy whatever snacker bigger one here enjoying their

Nice cozy place for appetizers and wine sipping. Lot of wine choices by the glass. Nice and 70ish environment inside.

*edit to clarify what the business response clearly misunderstood. We were a wine tour of 6 people. When we showed up, there were approximately 14 customers already there, who had already been served, one table getting ready to leave, not newly arriving with us. I asked for what is in the flights because some of us have allergies but after the blank stares (practically a glare from the male with the mustache) and lack of helpful response, we opted not to buy flights. This is a smaller place and the staff seemed overwhelmed by the approximately 20 customers they had. We came in on a wine tour, just 6 of us (we were part of that 20 count i mentioned above). We sat in the corner benches, which are super cute, and tried to figure out what we wanted since we intended to do a "tasting". There are flight names listed in the menu but not what they include. I went up to the bar/ordering area to ask how we know what's in the flights and the guy and girl behind the counter gave me blank stares and said they pick wines that are appropriate to the flight name... we each ordered a glass of wine instead, and promptly left. I actually recommended to the wine tour co that they take it off their list as this doesn't seem like a place for a wine tasting.

I was pretty disappointed with this place. I found it on the Nudge and was excited to sit and sip wine in a cozy atmosphere and have to pre dinner appetizers. The wine was fine and the atmosphere was cute. But I don’t think it’s super worth it for the price. Me and my partner each got a flute of 3 wines to try and we got two appetizers that came in plastic plates that looked like they were made for a toddler. The bread and butter we got that was $8 looked like it came from the grocery store and was so small. The salmon we got tasted good but also looked like it came from a package. The staff was inattentive and unfriendly. Overall I was unimpressed. It wasn’t worth the $75 we spent there. It has potential to be a great place but I think they need to step up their game.

Great atmosphere, service ruined it. Came in to enjoy a few glasses with my partner and the mustached gentleman behind the counter was having a rough day (a little short, slamming menus, etc). Ruined the location, we left to go down the street. Sad, used to be a great place.

Good selection of wines and a nice relaxing spot. Gripe was with the service and attitude. Who needs the aloof snobbery? Ordered a white flight and just asked what the selections were. He just couldn't be bothered and said everything was on the menu. It wasn't. Only 1 was. When I asked again he simply said the menu must have changed. He brought over a completely different flight and took the first one away, without even asking. We purchased a bottle to go. Menu says half off to go. But our $58 bottle was $36. Guy just argued and said that is what the system says, so the menu must be wrong. Sorry bro, zero tip for that attitude Won't be going back

Me and friend were sitting on the patio. The wind blew hard enough to break and snap the umbrella. The umbrella hit my face very hard. When i looked at where it snapped, it was taped together. No one offered help and i had to go inside to tell staff to check it. No one came out. The place is vibey but i am disappointed in their care for customers.

Never in my life have I experienced what i experienced at this place. Entered here with a group of two of my friends (the youngest of whom is 26) upon entering the person who would be waiting on us told us “if we order drinks he will snatch them from us exactly at 12am and kick us out” it was 10:30 pm. We said ok even though it was a weird and aggressive comment and went to order drinks. He next asked us for our IDs which he looked at every single one for minutes, I am a Texan and even my ID he acted as if it was fake. He then refused to allow us to order as he said our IDs were fake, I encouraged him to contact the police and we would stay so he could see we were truly well over the legal age but he refused. He even began to raise his voice at me and say how the fact that I was still there showed I and my friends were under age. We are well over the legal age. It was obvious he chose to not serve us for a different reason as there was no logical explanation. I am extremely disappointed and my guests were frankly shocked. He kept asking us “where are you from?” Demeaningly. Unfortunately this but a big damper on the night. Frankly, it does not seem like all people are welcome at this establishment.

Wine is not good. Keep in mind the flights are just based on whatever bottles they have open…no telling how long they have been open, so it’s kind of a gamble and they told us this. So we get 3 tasters in tiny glasses that have no room to breath, and let me tell you, I’m not a wine snob but all 3 of those wines were terrible. My wife and I both thought so. I told the ladies the flight was not good and brought back all 3 glasses completely full. Their response…”oh that sucks, well do you want to close out with just that?” So not wanting to be an A hole, I paid $28 for 3 tastings of crap wine. Don’t come here. A good establishment would at least offer a tasting of 3 different wines or offer to reimburse. Obviously this place does not stand behind their wines and knows they couldn’t have given us anything better. Our waitress next door at Lenoir tried to warn us but it was the only spot walking distance open so we tried it…bad idea. Stay away if you like good wine. Place is cute and with good wine could be such a good place.
