If you would like amazing Indian food and are in Amsterdam, there is absolutely no reason NOT to eat here. My husband and I can here on our first night in Amsterdam and again on our last night. It is delicious! We ordered the garlic tikka chicken tandoori and the chicken korma both times. Hands down, best Indian food we have ever had. Staff was attentive and it was a great culinary experience! And I forgot to mention the garlic naan bread. So worth it! We brought it back our apartment and are loving it! read more

Best place in town ! Stop looking around if other options. Excellent service. The food is incredible. Quite an experience . read more

Solid choice for some tasty indian food. Definitely, better than most places in the states

This restaurant has excellent Tibetan and Nepalese food. Both of my parents ordered each a number 28 under the Nepalese menu, a tray with chicken, curry, lentil curry, rice, and yogurt. I ordered a number 22 under the Tibetan menu, a plate with noodles, momos (a type of dumpling that can be steamed or fried and it can have lamb of chicken inside), and ground lamb. The dishes were delicious, and they were big enough portions to fill all of us up. If you have not already gotten tired from the Dutch pancakes/sandwiches and gyros/döners, I highly recommend going to this restaurant. Oh and make sure you try their home made coriander hot sauce! read more

I was worried at first when I was looking for somewhere to have dinner in this area because it all seemed very touristy but I was very hungry and didn't have time to look up anything. I am so glad we found this place! All I wanted was something healthy that would leave me feeling good. The waiter was very nice and helpful and the food was delicious. read more

Sherpa - Himalayan/Nepalese Near Me - Amsterdam, New Hampshire

See all

the best nepalese/tibetan food. I highly recommend this place. The service is also excellent.

I've eaten at Sherpa more than a dozen times spread over many years. The food is consistently excellent. I love that you can order momos (dumplings) as a meal; they are preceded by a bit of lentil soup and papadum. The menu is split between Tibetan/Nepalese and Indian dishes. I have only ordered the former as these are what I am seeking. Their native alcoholic drink raksi is quite strong, like saké. Service is good. I would recommend sitting outside if the weather allows. read more

Ok this is one of those places you expect to be touristy, but it is NOT Sherpa is on a tiny street next to the canals so it's easy to miss. It is tiny and the decor is kitschy. But the service and the food are out of sight. Sherpa bills itself as Nepalese, but the menu is evenly split between Indian, Tibetan, and Nepalese. If you're looking for a pure play, this isn't it. But they make it all fit. We had momo stuffed with lamb, which was supple and light; also the vegetable samosas - the best I've ever eaten. The spicing on that was just incredible. For anyone except giants, you might consider splitting an entree - they are gigantic. If not, you'll want to take it with you (even if that's to London like us). I had the Lusha Sherpa Feast, which is a Tibetan dish with lamb that made me regret (brefly) that I'd played myself with appetizers. My fiancee had something equally amazing. One note - make a reservation or come later in the evening. The physical space is tiny and the locals know it's amazing. read more

My husband and I are visiting Amsterdam for a few days and have stumbled upon some really great restaurants- Sherpa definitely being one of them!! We ordered the 3-course non-vegetarian meal which included dishes from Nepal, India, and Tibet. Let me just say, we were not disappointed!!! All of the food was delicious and the portions were very generous- we actually ended up taking some back to our hotel for later. The service and atmosphere were also great! read more

Like many other reviews I only have great things to say about the food and service. We had dinner on a beautiful early June evening sitting at one of the outside tables. I had the Nepalese lamb with spinach and my wife had an Indian lamb dish with a wonderful tomatoes base. The quality of the lamb was excellent, every piece succulent and tender. The yogurt and chutney were excellent to accompany the food. The wine and beer list did well to complement the food. The service was attentive and caring. The prices are very reasonable for the quantity and quality of the food. read more

Excellent service. Amazing food! Great ambience. A must visit when visiting Amsterdam.

An intimate restaurant with a lot of heart. My fiancé had been to Nepal several times before and absolutely loved the food. He believes this is the best presentation of authentic Nepali food in Europe. We had the vegetarian momos and dal bhat and it was delicious. Highly recommend these two dishes together as they are complements. read more

Sherpa - Interior of restaurant - Himalayan/Nepalese Near Me - Amsterdam, New Hampshire

Small place, friendly staff, diverse menu. Was very very hard to choose The pappadan was light and served with two great sauces and #15 chicken was an excellent appetizer! Tasty but not overwhelming My husband had the traditional nepalese meal and I had the chicken with nuts and spices both were excellent !! Beyond expectations! Reasonably priced Seats maybe 25 but worth it 100% read more

The place was excellent! It was centrally located, and the menu included an English translation. For two people we ordered the wings, a cheese naan, and a cinnamon, yogurt lamb dish recommended by the waitress. The food was all excellent, and the staff was very attentive and helpful with recommendations not only for the menu, but also for traveling around Amsterdam. I accidentally left an item at the restaurant, and then realized several hours later, called, and was able to retrieve it. I would recommend the place to anyone traveling through the area! read more

The waiter was amazing! He was very friendly and helpful. I ordered the eggplant and spinach Nepalese dish with garlic naan. It was really good! My boyfriend got the momo vegetables (dumplings) and lentil soup. We highly recommend this place. We loved our food and will definitely be coming back before our trip is over. read more

Very simple place with wonderful, middle priced food. Tourists and locals alike come to this restaurant in a very busy and touristic part of town - but the food and environment are anything but touristic. With lots of recommendations from apps and the likes of Gault & Millau, you'll find every kind of person coming in. The chef is Nepalese, so you'd do good to go for that. But don't miss the Momos - Tibetan dumplings - they are delicious. read more

Does not accommodate to walk in. The waiter initially stated we have 3 reservations, maybe half an hour or longer as once people pay they may sit around to another 30 minutes. Mind you, there was at least one table open and no one was waiting. read more

Absolutely outstanding. Great service and excellent food. Very polite wait staff. Located in a great part of town. If back I'm. Amsterdam, definitely will go there again. read more

Amazing food with decent prices and wonderful service. With a wide spectrum of flavors, there is something for everybody, especially for people who have never tried tibetan or nepali food before. We had the vegetarian noodles with veggie MOMOs that were really unique and tasty. The nepali beer was also very impressive! By far our favorite dish was the nepali appetizer with spinach and potatoes! You get tons of food for the amount you pay, so you can definitely get two meals out of it. The waiter was very accommodating and so nice! read more

Very friendly and helpful servers. Great food and plenty of choices. Nice size portions for a decent price. Would definitely recommend.

I loved this place. Great food and a bargain for dinner, this Nepalese/ Himalayan restaurant is perfect if you're craving something different and full of flavor. Great service and location make it perfect for lunch or dinner. read more

I was not expecting this in Amsterdam! Reminded me of the hospitality that i grew up with in Nepal. Good food, great service and amazing location ! Highly recommend read more

We had a delicious meal at Sherpa. Our son who had visited this great Nepali restaurant 10 years ago highly recommended this place. It lived up to our expectations! Service was very good. read more

My favorite Indian/Nepalese restaurant in Amsterdam. There are many restaurants serving food from this part of the world, but Sherpa is at the top. Service is excellent, food is hot, fresh, and perfectly spiced. I recommend any of the lamb dishes. read more

Seems like the place doesn't exist anymore. Instead, there is a big construction site at the adress. Pity, we took a long walk to get there. Many restaurants in the neighbourhood, but all very crowded with tourists. read more

Wonderful food and service on a quiet street. We had not had food from Nepal before and Aung made sure we understand the dishes and the spices in each of them. The dishes are plentiful and delicious! read more

Never had it neaplanese food before but im as picky as they come and i thought it was surprisingly good.The menu was in three languages so it was easy to pick out what we wanted.The place is immaculately clean and the food was served quickly.I would recommend everyone to try this place . read more

I really like this restaurant! The food is very tasty and the staff is friendly. There are plenty of options for vegetarians. You will not be disappointed when you eat here read more

Very friendly host, really, varied menu superb food. A must visit if you are in Amsterdam

Super friendly staff, all smiles and delicious food! Highly recommended if you are into Asian food! The Himalayan spaces are simply amazing!

Great food and friendly service and very vegetarian friendly / just visiting but would come back.

Fantastic Nepalese food every time we visit Amsterdam! I absolutely adore their traditional dishes (especially the ones that get served in the steamer pot). Even though those specific dishes are minimum of 2 people, it can easily feed up to 3 or 4 people because it gets served with noodles and rice. Seriously, if you're looking for something unique and absolutely delicious just give Sherpa a try and you won't regret it either. Oh, the and service is impeccable. It's one guy serving most of the tables in the restaurant but he takes the time out to describe each dish and help pick something out if you're lost on where to start. He was so kind and ended up giving us a free bottle of wine! Granted we were being super nice customers, but I don't remember the last time I received a free bottle of wine from a restaurant when the bill only came out to less than 40 euros. My boyfriend and I are coming back again before we leave Amsterdam, just can't wait to try more of their menu! read more

Really nice and welcoming staff. The food was really good, I was with my Tibetan friend and he enjoyed the butter tea as well as the delicious momo. Good address to recommend! read more

Fantastic food, hands down. Fresh, tasty and we could tell it was prepared from scratch. We ordered and shared the vegetarian tibetan meal for two, which included tasty spinach and cheese dumplings, mixed vegetables and paneer in a tasty soup. We also had spicy noodles on the side which was just as tasty and a good consistency. We finished that off with some mango lassi that was delicious. read more
