    Mayur Indian Restaurant is in the museum district of Amsterdam just a block away from the Rijksmuseum. I have been going here for almost 10 years. The owner, Manu, always remembers me and gives me a warm welcome that makes this place feel, to me, like more than just a restaurant. The welcome is genuine. All the servers are friendly and helpful. I would call this an upscale Indian restaurant. It is absolutely beautiful inside with mood lighting set to a level that creates a classy and good vibe. If it is warm enough, I'd recommend sitting outside for great people watching. GoPol was my server during my most recent visit. He recommended the 'old Monk drink' made with traditional Indian Rum. It looked like an old Fashion and was pretty good. GoPol brought out the traditional rice cakes with 3 dips: pickled spicy, yogurt mint, and sweet mango puree. This comes with every dinner and it is a great, light way of getting your taste buds ready for a great meal. It was a bit cold outside, so I ordered the chicken soup. It came out hot with fresh chicken pieces, but it was a bit bland for my taste. The Jambo prawn appetizer, shrimp dipped in yogurt and tandoor sauce, was delicious. For the main course I ordered butter chicken, which I have had several times over the years. It comes with a very light basmati rice. As usual, it was tasty and delicious, especially with the cheesy garlic naan. If you are visiting Amsterdam and want a nice meal in a beautiful setting with great people, visit Mayur. They have consistently earned a 5-star rating from me.

    Good authentic Indian food. Only reason for 1 less star is limited menu options. But overall good food.

    Terrible service, disrespectful staff. Do not recommend, go to Ashoka or Tulsi instead for great Indian Food.

    Little spot that we found, turned out to be a gem!…read more Great food and service. Authentic Indian food that hit the spot on a chilly, rainy day. Highly recommend if you are in the mood for some homemade food.

    I had noted this place prior to our trip, as it is located within a couple of blocks of the Anne…read moreFrank House. I was only able to get tickets for the AFH for a 6:15 p.m. tour, meaning we got finished around 8 p.m. Hence, this became our late dinner option that day. I wasn't sure how busy they would be, but I guess we arrived late enough so that they had a few tables available. The restaurant is located on a fairly busy street (served by trams, which we later used to get back to the Central Station area). It is only a few doors down from one of the canals. The menu indicated that they had been in business since the 1980s, so they must be doing something right. As an added reference point, they are about a 20-minute walk from the Central Station. We arrived and were greeted and shown to a table near the front of the restaurant. It seemed to extend quite a way back, but I didn't have a reason to venture further in. Our server was friendly and provided menus and took our drink orders. I know they had wine but I don't know if they had a full bar. There were certainly several tables of Americans and Brits who appeared to be well served in that regard, so maybe there was a bar... The menu was fairly extensive, with an appreciable overlap with dishes we were familiar with from Indian places in the U.S. We all found something to our taste. I think we ended up with a couple of vegetarian curry dishes and one that was chicken-based. We also got naan and rice. Everything was good, and given the lateness of dinner (for us), we were hungry. When the food came out, they also brought one warming stand per dish. This was something new that we encountered at a couple of restaurants on this trip. This is probably more relevant in the winter months, but it kept the food hot. I'd likely return here for another meal if I'm ever back in Amsterdam.

    Arrived yesterday at opening time 5 p.m., hungry and eager to eat dinner before our canal cruise…read more We did not have a reservation but they were able to find us a table because they were just opening. Very elegant interior, with tasteful decor, soft ambient music, best for couples, but also able to accommodate larger groups with a reservation. We were seated right away and greeted by our server Sona, very gracious, patient, attentive, and professional. She asked about any allergies and then took our order of chicken tikka saag and chicken tikka masala, both medium spiciness (also asked if we would like Indian medium or European medium--we chose Indian medium). These entrees come with rice, and we also ordered garlic naan. Immediately, they brought chilled bottled water and complimentary thin crispy cracker like bread with red sauce and green sauce (I didn't catch the names). I liked the green sauce better (mint), and my husband liked the red one better (tamarind)--both were lovely. About 20 minutes later, our entrees arrived piping hot, and cooked to perfection! Tender chicken, savory rich flavors in the masala and saag, both the right level of spicy for us! Glad we had enough rice and water! Excellent restaurant --Sona was amazing and the whole experience delicious!

The lamb saag was absolutely delicious and the salad was quite good as well. We weren't huge fans of the mixed tandoori plate, the flavors weren't very developed and it needed more spice, but we were overall satisfied with the service and the dining experience. It appears from the other reviews that the momos are one of the best things to eat here, but I personally couldn't because I am gluten free, so considering how delicious the saag is, I bet dishes other than the tandoori are very delicious as well! Overall I would recommend this place.
