What an incredible find on our last night here- and only around the corner from our Bnb. The ambience is lovely and so inviting. The prices are totally reasonable for everything on the menu. I had a sampler and my friend had the coconut curry. The organic beer with my dinner was a perfect combo and the chai tea for dessert topped off our meal nicely. Loved the clove in the chai. All the servers were sweet and efficient. read more

I had a lovely dining experience at Golden Temple. It was everything I was looking for and more. The food was fresh, flavorful, exciting, and prepared to near perfection. I ordered the Tofu Tikka Masala: Indian masala curry with onion, tomato, bell pepper, and tofu served with chapati, mango chutney, and basmati rice. For dessert, I ordered coconut pie, which is now known as the BEST DESSERT I'VE EVER HAD! TOFU TIKKA MASALA - Simply divine. The curry was rich in depth and flavor. The portion was vast. While I was eating, it reminded me of a warm hug. It was comforting and soul-soothing. BASMATI RICE - The rice was fluffy and cooked to perfection. The crispy onions on top were great for added flavor and texture. SIDE SALAD - I'm not sure what the salad dressing was, but it was scrumptious! I'm not a fan of salads, but I would order this again in a heartbeat. The whole dish was super fun to eat too! COCONUT PIE - is in 1st place for the best dessert I've ever had! It was pie perfection! Everything about it was delightful: crunchy crust on the bottom, sweet and smooth coconut custard, selection and amount of fruit for acidity, slivered almonds, sesame seeds, and the agave or simple syrup drizzle on the plate. I was speechless after eating this pie, and I'm still short on words now. I would go back to Amsterdam just for this coconut pie!

We ordered the mango chaat salad, fresh spring rolls, Nepalese momo's and the chili mushroom dishes. Everything was fantastic. The ambiance and decor was very nice as well. read more

We had such a wonderful experience here during lunch. Great food, great service, and great atmosphere! Small but very cozy! The best vegan salmon I've tried. The salmon bowl was just wonderful, full of flavor and the salmon texture is dead on (not that it needed to be ). Thank you! read more

Amazing atmosphere, and delicious food! I was thinking I should get the Indian food since it seemed like they specialized in that, but I got the mushroom pizza instead. All vegan. All truffle. All amazing. I dream of this pizza... read more

Somehow we found the healthiest place to eat in Amsterdam after partaking in decidedly unhealthy decisions prior to dinner. Sometimes all you want is a giant bowl of leafy freshness. At least, I do. Golden Temple has amazing salads that would satisfy even the pickiest herbivores. Despite nearly forgetting how to eat and narrowly avoiding stabbing my eyeball with my own fork, we had a guacamole starter and giant salads for main course, accompanied by green juice and rooibos tea. Everything was crisp, fresh, and juicy. Despite a hazy start, a memorable evening and uplifting venue - with no morning after gluttonous guilt. read more

Fantastic vegetarian/ vegan restaurant. Fresh ingredients and well prepared dishes. Good portion size. Friendly service We had the Asian coconut curry, the rice wrap, and the tempeh cashew and vegetable salad. I'll probably update this review more later-- but, just know it is definitely recommended. read more

Golden Temple - Asian coconut curry - Vegetarian Near Me - Amsterdam, New Hampshire

As much as I hate to say it, Golden Temple was probably one of the most disappointing dining excursions during our week in Europe. I had rather hyped up hopes after reading some of the glowing reviews on Yelp for Golden Temple, but I suppose we just happened to dine here during an extremely "off day?" Golden Temple seemed reasonably well-attended when we arrived, but thankfully had a few available seating areas for the two of us. We plopped down fairly close to the kitchen and negotiated our selections. There appeared to be two servers attending to everyone this evening, but one of them was munching away on some food in the open kitchen, the other was unsystematically checking on the tables. I actually had to flag one of them down to take our drink orders after waiting a decent while for one of them to come to us on her own accord. (And yes I understand service is slower in Europe, compared to the United States.) When it came time for us to place our food orders, the server did mention that they were out of the daily soup. Okay cool, we hadn't considered ordering it. Instead we opted for the Tempeh, Peanut, and Vegetable Salad and the We Love Mushroom Pizza. Minutes later, the server informed us the pizza dough was no longer usable (it was a couple of hours until closing), so we substituted the Flavours of India dish. Then a few more minutes pass, the server pops up again to let us know that they actually didn't have the salad or the Indian platter available because their main cook was out sick for the day (confused as to why this wasn't disclosed in advance???), thus we were strictly limited to the Iranian Quinoa Salad or two Mexican dishes in terms of vegan dishes. So, three vegan choices, out of typically very vegan-ful menu. Huge regret washed over us for selecting this restaurant out of the numerous vegetarian-friendly in Amsterdam! Given that we had already received our drinks and were quickly approaching very-hungry, we ultimately ended up with the Iranian Quinoa Salad and Traditional Mexican Dish. Both of which ended up being perfectly edible and freshly prepared, but nothing remarkable or noteworthy, although seemed healthier than our original choices. But to say we were bummed, is a huge understatement! Vegan Mexican and quinoa salads are quite plentiful where I'm from. Boo hoo! Our bill arrived with two free drinks with our next food purchases vouchers, I suppose as "we are sorry for the inconvenience" tokens. We passed them onto a nearby couple as we had no intentions of returning here during our 48 hour stay in Amsterdam. One last oddity was the disclaimer on the menu stating prices didn't include tip . . . I was under the impression that restaurant tipping wasn't expected in Amsterdam (per the internets). And if service was exceptional, a 10% tip was acceptable at best? At any rate, the husband left a generous tip anyway, simply didn't want to wait around for the leisure service to render change. Sigh, just sigh . . . read more

Alright yelpers. Full disclosure: I almost don't want to spread the word about this ahhhhhmazing Gods-gift-to-human vegetarian palace on qte but touristy Utrechtsestraat. I might just love the the feeling of keeping it to myself a little too much, like a yummsy little secret heaven to sneak away to and boost myself with enough energy to cope with this shitty world for another week or two. But no. I must share this. No veg*an out there within a 50 miles radius should wander around unknowingly about this place. All food is organic, or as they explain on the menu: '98% - not all spices we use are available organic. We are working on the last two percent.' Guess what, Golden Temple? I forgive you. All food on the menu is veg*an (vegetarian with many vegan options), and the main influence is oriental - Indian and southeast asian - and Mexican. The result of the two or three cooks prepping the food in the open kitchen in the back of the restaurant is a true explosion of flavours and sensation. It is authentic and heavenly. My first meal was the cheese-drenched enchilada with black beans, salsa and a fresh mango salad - not too life altering at the sound of it, but surprisingly well put together with interesting flavours that hooked arms and danced down my throat. For starters I can recommend the Vietnamese rice paper spring rolls, fresh and delicate just as they should be - served with a peanut saté for dipping. Brought me back to Vietnam in an instant where I have had my most life changing meals so far. Extremely good. The Pakora - deep fried veggies with a mint chutney dip, had us almost get into a fist fight over the last, crumbled piece. Do not miss. Feeling for something a little more western? (I forgive you, you might be making a wise choice here) - the Nutty goat pizza with pumpkin, rolled onion, goat cheese and walnuts was equally incredible. Extremely tasty, and the crust justified the slightly longer waiting time - you just cant get a crust like that at the local pizza joint. The environmemt is so friendly, so relaxed. The owner is chatty and has that outlandish Portland kinda hippie vibe that makes a part of you want to jump on his back and whisper 'take me with you'. A cute little pommeranian is hanging out and will maybe crawl up next to you and fall asleep if you pet her frequently. She will grunt, sometimes loudly, but I think it is of pleasure. Did I make my point clear? You need to visit this place and realize that it knows what is up in the world right now. But dont go to often. I still wanto be able to roll up at 6 on a friday and get a table. Deal? read more

Stumbled on to this little gem after 26 hrs of traveling and airport food. Absolutely amazing food, sweet funky ambiance and great service. My hubby ordered the pumpkin soup as a starter and it was so creamy and delicious. I had the Indian sampler and my hubby had the green Chile burritos. Wow, the flavors were spectacular. We are only here a few days but I'm sure we will be back before we leave. Thanks for the warm cozy delicious dinner after a long trip. read more

While looking for a more crowd pleasing restaurant that could satisfy the diverse group of people we had going, I found Golden Temple, a vegetarian Indian restaurant. Inside, this restaurant was an eclectic ball of fun. Colorful and vibrant, it had traditional tables and chairs on the first floor and lower tables for sitting on the floor on the second floor. We were seated on the second floor. A hodgepodge of colors ignited the spark that drove this restaurant into complete eclecticism. The entire restaurant is vegetarian and all gluten free and vegan options are conveniently marked on the menu. We started with an order of the Salt and Pepper Tofu. These tofu sticks were dipped and battered and Chinese green tea salt and pepper covered these fried tofu sticks that are served with salt on the side as well. They were okay, but nothing to write home about. For my entree, I ordered the traditional Northern Indian Thali, which is made vegan by request. This sampler platter consisted of Dhal, lentil soup; Saag, spinach dish; Bhand Gobhi, potato and cabbage in a tomato sauce; mild yellow Coconut Curry; basmati rice; and chutney. I really enjoyed it. More than anything though, I enjoyed the company of my friends who recently moved to Amsterdam and I found this restaurant to be a great place for large groups of people in a friendly, relaxed environment. There's even a yoga studio there. I'd gladly come back again. Next time, I'll leave room for dessert. read more

Had a delicious meal at the Golden Temple on a recent trip to Amsterdam. Loved all of the delicious vegetarian options on the menu - I really had a hard time deciding what to eat, because everything sounded (and looked!) so good! I ordered the coconut curry and my boyfriend ordered the curry of the day and both were so good. We made a reservation, as we had tried to eat there a few days prior and they were booked up, so I would recommend a reservation and it is well worth it. Delicious, fresh, vegetable focused vegetarian fare. read more

A nice cozy place with a variety of food! Vegetarian and vegan menu. A bit on the expensive side, but the quality of food more than makes up for it. read more

When I moved to Amsterdam a few years ago vegetarian and healthy food was not a "thing". It was hard to find, I always had to eat the sides or just pasta. It's getting better in the past years. But this place! This place jas always been my go to place. And still is! The atmosphere here is great. Chill, nice, calm. But the food! Ohhhh the food! I think that by now I have already tried every dish on the menu and can't figure out which one is my favorite so far. All of them were soooooo goooood! Filling, healthy, delicious. The place to go, even if you're not a vegetarian. You will enjoy the food any ways. read more

Great food, menu and atmosphere for vegetarians and whole food lovers. Wish there was one near our home in California. It would be one of our local favorite restaurants. Indulging our vegetarian restaurant preference while traveling isn't always easy. The Golden Temple was a real delight. For a main course we shared the Mezze Platter which consisted of fresh bread, hummus, tofu & broccoli kebab over rice, chick peas & vegetable stew and yam curry. It was wonderfully prepared and presented. We enjoyed it immensely and finished every bit of it. We would be hard pressed to pass the Mezze Platter up on a return visit. For an appetizer we had the cheese and bean nachos. It was fabulous tasting but not a very big serving. We could have eaten twice as much...but then we might of ruined ourselves for the Mezze Platter. The carrot, ginger and celery juice cocktail was very tasty and refreshing. Bottom line, if you are vegetarian in Amsterdam, you must try this place. If you are a raw food lover and want a special restaurant experience, visit their website and make reservations at lead a day in advance. You don't need reservations unless you are going for the raw food experience. read more

Visited this place after looking at the 4 and 5 star reviews and since we are vegetarian plus we happened to be staying on the prinsenboat right around the corner. I had 2 big misses with this place - we ordered the mezze platter at over 16 euros you should get a satisfying mediterranean meal but the falafels were small and just ok and the cous cous bland. I ordered the vegetable stew as part of my mezze - it was just potato and peas in a tomato gravy - seemed like they were going Indian with this but decided not to go the whole way and called it a stew and made it Mediterranean. The place is very expensive for the quantity of food. All in all it's neither Mediterranean nor Indian and doesn't find the right mix My husband kids and I loved sitting at the window seat - you have to take your shoes off and have adi shakti the restaurant dog for company. read more

A friend and I were searching for a place in the neighbourhood to eat some dinner, she wasn't down for Orential takeaway, or any of the cafés along the street and everywhere else was pretty full. So we ended up stumbling I to the Golden Temple. Having travelled to Japan I have actually seen the golden temple but that's another story. Service was sub par, you can never get a dutch waitress's attention but that's typical. No reductions there The ambiance of the place was suuuunuper chill, the music was mellow and at the front of the store you can sit on what is basically a mountain of blankets while you enjoy your food. We ordered one of the pizzas which was alright... I mean it tasted pretty good for being really good for you! Gluten free, sweet potatoes etc... You could defs finish a pizza to yourself but she only had one slice having ate prior so I had the other 3. Will I go back? Hm.... There's other places I want to try! But check it out yourself! read more

Really satisfied with our visit here. We didn't have a reservation but got a table on the topfloor (loft), but I think it could be a good idea to book before. It is a beautiful place with a nice atmosphere and the food was really fresh. We ate some starters and then the risotto, asian stew and indian thali. All really good. A few of us are vegan and the menu was very really satisfying for us. The raw food deserts was also yummy. I really recommend this place! read more

This is how you get fat vegetarians. Delicious, if fatty, food in a relaxed atmosphere with friendly staff, a good experience overall. I gather it was a busier day than most, with the Amsterdam gay pride parade slowly partying its techno-happy way down the canals surrounding the restaurant. For this, I will forgive the somewhat slow service and the fact that our starter arrived with our main courses. The starter itself, hummus and pita, was quite small. I had the "burrito" and she had the salad with beets and goat cheese. Delicious, even though not a burrito by most definitions, but I don't care what you call it, corn tortillas with beans and smothered in cheese will never be a bad thing. The salad was served with some nicely seasoned pita bread, complementing the soft goat cheese wonderfully. They make some nice blended juice creations which my wife had, and I enjoyed a couple organic Dutch beers. A very good experience, I will look to come back here if we return to Amsterdam. read more

What a fantastic restaurant! Great atmosphere combined with best vegetarian food. Even myself as a non-vegetarian had a great experience! The green enchilada had an amazing taste and so did their Sauvignon Blanc. The indian dish and the Traditional Mexican tasted amazing as well. At first, this place might seem a bit pricy, but mind that you also pay the nice atmosphere and the great service! The only I can critize are the small dishes. If you're hungry, you might consider their desserts (which are amazing, of course). Anyway, our blonde waitress with curly hair was extremely nice and welcoming -kudos to you! So it's still five stars for this nice place in the middle of Amsterdam! read more

The deco is unique and very tranquil. There is one table along the window where you can sit on the floor, with tons of pillows. The staff are very friendly. The food is delicious! I had the soup of the day which was an Indian lentil soup. It came with two pieces of warm pita bread. I have tried many lentil soups and many pita breads before. Golden temple's offering is definitely on the top! They also offer organic no sugar added pie, all three of them look interesting and very tempting. You can order half of each together for about 10 Euros. I think I will try all three pies next time. read more

Soup was about 5 EUR, main meal was 20 EUR (SE Asian Curry). With a drink and desert the bill goes up quickly to 35 EUR per person. I loved the soup, but I think that the curry was really so small in size that it left me wanting more. Maybe vegans are used to eating smaller portions, but I am not. I would expect vegan/vegitarian food to be bigger in quantity, since you need to get all of your calories from food that contains more water than meat in comparison. Staff was extremely friendly, and the service was great! Don't expect so much privacy if you come in the group of 2 though, you might have someone sitting just next to you. read more

Very nice vegetarian Indian food, with a few takes on Mexican as well. Our entire family enjoyed their meals and the ambiance.

Amazing Indian/Japanese/Mexican crossover! Every dish is well thought through and leaves you enjoying every bite. You simply must try the starters mix and the desserts read more

I arrived in Amsterdam and after checking into my place on Utrechtsestraat, was looking for something healthy but filling to eat, in a place that had some atmosphere. Luckily I stumbled upon this place right away. The service was very prompt and friendly. They had a great selection of teas and juices, and even the tap water came infused with lemon, strawberry, and mint. The Indian Kitcheree platter was delicious. But the best part were the paintings on the walls. Brilliantly colored and mesmerizing, with spiritual motifs that gave the place a very zen-like, yoga studio vibe. Will definitely be returning on my short Amsterdam visit. read more

A disappointment. Food tasteless, small portions regular service. I won't go back nor recommend it.

My husband and I turned up at 7pm on a Sunday night with no reservation and had no trouble getting a seat, but the restaurant still had plenty of diners. We ordered an Indian Thali platter each and found it to be delicious and filling. Waitstaff service was a bit too relaxed, as is often the case in Amsterdam, but the restaurant had a great vibe. We will most certainly be back to try the rest of the menu. read more

Excellent menu from top to bottom. "vegetarian" yes but any food fan would be satisfied. Top 5 pizza in Amsterdam as well.

Oh no!! They changed the menu. My guess is that some nutty consultant convinced the ownership to offer half the food at twice the price. So sad... This was my favorite spot in Amsterdam until now. read more

I loved this restaurant. It's amazing for vegetarians and vegans. Upstairs it's seating on the floor with pillows and games which was great. I had the pakora, chips and guacamole, and southeast asian coconut curry, all were great. For desserts, we had little vegan cakes which were delicious. The service was very slow, unfortunately. We didn't get to place our order for 45 minutes. We had also made a reservation but they told us our table wasn't available. Besides that, I highly recommend for vegetarians and vegans. read more

I loved it! Everything was good very family friendly and very relaxed!! Would go back! So many options @modelmama_ mamamodelblog.com

Lovely restaurant with a great atmosphere and friendly staff. Upstairs you can sit on pillows on the floor which is very cozy, but a bit inconvenient for eating.
