It takes some dedication to find, but once you have, it is a small Indian restaurant that has a good authentic feel to it. Menu has all the items expected from western Indian cuisine and the portions are sensibly large. Have only tried takeaway so cannot actually say anything about the dining room. But, it looks quite small, so don't take for granted that you will get a table.

Absolutely amazing, me and my friend came over to Amsterdam from Ireland decided to try Samrat we were very pleased! Not only was the food amazing the owner (I assume was the owner) gave us two free beers before we left. He was very friendly and nice

All portions are bigger and tasier than in any other Indian restaurant I tried before in Amsterdam

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!

Came here while visiting Amsterdam with my father and above everything else, the decor in the…read morerestaurant is absolutely breathtaking!! 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.
