Guru Restaurant in Rijnbuurt

Same delicious food as last time

Very friendly staff. Could not have had a better evening. The food was amazing.

Very very nice atmosphere and the hospitality was amazing i loved the restaurant.

Incredible food, truly a gem. Nothing I write in this text box will make you understand how good this place actually is.

I’ve been to Indian restaurants in many countries. This was one of the best!

Lots of choice and good service. Usually you can go there without a reservation.

One of my best discoveries. Good wishes .

Find god of food here in Amsterdam.. truly a name Guru... Masters of Mutton Rogan Josh and paneer tikka masala... Awesome experience

Must try Indian resturant if nearby. Good food and great people

One of those rare restaurants which provides tasty and soothing food

Everything was delicious and was welcomed with open arms

Loved the delicious food of guru resturant

Deze restaurant is echt schoon,het ziet echt luxe uit.de medewerkers zijn echt goed.het eaten smaakt echt lekker het sphere is gezellig ,en hebben mooie design en decor binnen het restaurant

Absolutely fantastic! From the cute décor, to the welcoming friend serving, topped off by the flavoursome well cooked food. There was an extend wait for food but worth it and the big portion sizes Absolutely no complaints. We did reserve a table, which is always good as they get very busy.

Amazing food and environment .... .

Haven't tried such a delicious dishes before..

The staff was really nice and we enjoyed our food. It was just a little bit lacking in rich spices and thinner than we usually like it. Overall we had good vegan meals and had a great conversation with the workers.

One of my best favourite restaurant..

Wonderful atmosphere and food.. enjoyed

In short... fantastically tasty, large portions and friendly staff... highly recommended and an asset to the Rivierenbuurt! ***** Update April 28, 2025, still super tasty... congratulations that they continue to maintain the quality at a high level despite the fact that it is now a super busy restaurant, hats off, and see you very soon.*****

Best butter chicken I have ever tried...too good

We had the chicken tika masala it was really good. Service was amazing we had the best time.

Very nice food and service just too 👍

Outstanding restaurant. A jewel off the main streets of Amsterdam center. Amazing food, the garlic cheese naan was one of the best things I have eaten in a long time. Chicken tandoori was insanely good. Mango Kulfit highly recommended as desert Modern restaurant, chill music, not too loud, very clean. Can only recommend

We were warmly welcomed, served quickly and attentively and last but not least: the food was wonderful.

The food was amazing really recommended this place 👌 it's a must try

Como parte de la gira de Kesari, se suponía que almorzaríamos en este restaurante el 12 de abril de 2025 a las 14:00. Sin embargo, debido a los retrasos en el jardín de los tulipanes, llegamos tarde, alrededor de las 3. 10 PM El dueño del restaurante se negó a proporcionar comida dentro del restaurante. En su lugar proporcionó comida empacada. Fue una experiencia terrible. Las 30 personas - incluyendo ancianos y niños estaban realmente hambrientos. Fueron obligados a comer comida en algún lugar afuera como un mendigo. Se espera que un restaurante indio haga negocios teniendo en cuenta "Atithi devo bhav"

As part of Kesari tour package, we were supposed to have our Lunch at this place on 12th April 2025 at 2 PM. Due to some delays at Tulip Garden, we were not able to reach on time. We reached the restaurant around 3.10 PM. However, we were shocked to know that restaurant owner refused to provide food in his restaurant. Instead, he provided packed lunch boxes. All 30 people - including senior citizens & kids were really Hungry. We were forced to eat this on the banks of some canal as if we were beggars. This was a terrible experience.

Amazing restaurant ! Absolutely authentic India food ❤️

very nice Indian cuisine, food is delicious, staff very polite, kind, we had the waiter with the nice moustache 😘

An extensive menu, delicious food but above all very friendly service!

Une soirée improvisée en famille. Nous sommes allés découvrir ce restaurant hier soir et nous avons été enchanté tout d’abord par la gentillesse du personnel. Les plats étaient délicieux mais attention aux épices qui pourrait vous surprendre.

Amazing restaurant. Food is of great quality and the staff is just lovely! Absolutely recommended. ☺️

A lovely Indian restaurant in Amsterdam. Excellent service and delicious food. Highly recommended.

Best Indian food we have had in a long time.

Exquisite food, service and atmosphere. We have had an amazing time, thank you!

Just wow! Service with heart. The taste and spices. All fresh! The naan! The best Indian food I ever had.

Fantastic experience! We had the 3-course chef's menu: what a phenomenal composition of beautiful dishes. The butter chicken was really bizarrely delicious. The service was also excellent, service was cheerful and attentive. I will definitely come back here or pick up again.

Very nice service, super tasty food, will definitely come back again, thank you for that

Excellent Indian restaurant. Truly delicious street food dishes. Friendly and customer-oriented service. And flexible. In short, highly recommended where you can also park in front of the door.

Extremely attentive service, food very tasty, good location

One of the best, most authentic Indian restaurants not only in Amsterdam but also in Europe. Loved it! Absolute recommendation. Only feedback is no kids menu.

Excelente comida, los mejores bhajis de cebolla que he probado durante siglos, y un gran servicio de un equipo amable. Volveré lo antes posible.

Fresh tasty food good service Friendly staff Recommended!

Mouthwatering and tasty food, very kind and welcoming staff, will visit again. Very recommended.

The nicest restaurant with the nicest people! Food was absolutely fantastic, the atmosphere is even better. The team is very attentive and welcoming to everyone. Gets busy sometimes but food is worth the wait.

Very tasty, large portions, delicious mango lassi, biriyani, poratta. Clean pleasant place.

Delicious food and fantastic service. The stuff is so kind and helpful, they made our stay very enjoyable, also for our one year old son! Really attentive and kind, and great variety of succulent food. Recommended!

Since a colleague of mine drew our attention to this restaurant, it has become a regular dining spot for our team. Fantastic food. Everything is absolutely delicious!

Delicious food and friendly staff. The cheese naan was especially good. Highly recommended!

One of the best Indian restaurants I have ever been to. Super friendly staff, amazing dishes and great drinks. 5/5.

I came here with a group of five people on a Saturday evening, and the restaurant was about 3/4 full, which is a good sign. We received the menus and the waiter very helpful in describing the dishes and was overall quite cordial. We got our drinks (I ordered the mango lassi which was really good), and the starters that some of us had ordered. So far so good. We finished those starters, and then the wait begun. We sat really close to the kitchen, so we could see waiters passing by our table bringing food to other customers, thus increasing our own appetites. However, our main courses did not arrive. At some point, a person (who I presume was) the manager drew attention to his other waiters that our table is still empty. I believe he did it twice or so. So they seemed to be aware as well, but the food still was not there. In fact, they did not arrive for about 1.5 hours and we had to ask the waiters if our food was coming. I understand that we came during one of the busiest times of the week, but around us there were customers who came after us, but also left before we even got our food. In the end, we received our main courses, and the presentation was really nice and the wait made us hungrier, so you would think that the food became tastier. However, I have to admit, the food was only decent. I am by no means an expert on indian cuisine, but I've tried it many times in different places and I had better, more flavourful, and spicier indian dishes, for a lower price and a shorter wait time. One of us ordered the chicken madras, and it has two peppers according to the menu, but I could eat it despite having quite a low tolerance to spice. I could also get more meat per dish elsewhere. The naan was good, but that's not what I come for to an Indian restaurant. I have to be honest and say that I expected more from a restaurant with such high reviews.

Excellent, flavorful food with generous portions (The bread basket is huge). The atmosphere is spacious and comfortable and the service friendly and efficient. Prices were reasonable for the whole pleasant experience. We had delicious leftovers the next day. Highly recommend it.

Delicious food and very nice service. We took the Sjefs menu so you get everything. It was too much to eat and we are big eaters. And drank wine.

Food - A place to enjoy authentic Indian food "Indian delicacy". Tastes great! Something really good! Yummy. Flavorful. Mouth-watering. Everything tastes good when you're hungry, and this place adds to it. No loud music. You can talk with friends and family while eating. Team- team is really supportive and friendly. Food service is also very fast. My table was being served by "Amrinder Singh." He personally takes care of your demand in terms of choice and recommends you the best dishes. Cheery on the cake - One can enjoy the legacy taste of Old Monk at this restaurant. I enjoyed oldmonk with hot water

It took 1 hour for the food to arrive. Then it finally arrived with whole parts of dishes missing. Then we ordered something that never arrived.

The food wasn't the very best I've ever had, but it was certainly fine. The atmosphere is a bit canteen-like, calm and brightly lit. I thought the price quality was very high and the toilet and stairs leading to it were really not clean.

Service with a smile, food was good but as an Indian, the flavours were too muted for me. My non-Indian colleagues loved the food. Lots of options ofcourse. Atmosphere was great!

Crispiest naan in Amsterdam! Excellent service, great food.

Without a doubt this is the best and nicest restaurant I have been to this year. I expected that we would eat at a typical Italian restaurant, but nothing could be further from the truth. To our surprise it was a very nice restaurant with friendly staff. The food was truly Indian and tasted like I was on holiday in India again. The price was a little higher than normal, but let's be honest, that's always the case in Amsterdam. Parking was possible in front of the door, so nothing to complain about there either.

Best Indian in Amsterdam in my opinion. So tastey and just the right amount of spice. The service is great and they know the food very well. Been here 4/5 times over the past two years and it’s very consistent.

Wow, what an experience. We dined tonight after driving 6 hours with a tired baby, all the way from Germany. We were sat down and ordered our starters and drinks as our baby started to get restless. We were about to leave to save the other diners experience, but instead were moved to a different, more private section of the restaurant. Here we could enjoy our food while our baby was able to play on the floor. Absolutely incredible service and food! Thanks guys for everything. We’ll be back!

The taste is so good and the ambience is awesome

My first and I'm sure also the last time in an Indian restaurant!!! Experience to forget!! To start, we were offered some appetizers with a bread with an unspecified but truly unpleasant taste! Then we ordered the Pani puri....terrible texture and flavour! As main courses we ordered lamb tandoori, fish and another special chicken dish whose name I don't remember. The fish dish was inedible, the chicken dish was decent, only the lamb could be considered good. On the other hand, the waiters were very kind and attentive. The price is high for the quality of the food. We spent 33 euros each

We went to the Guru Restaurant for dinner on New Year's Eve and can highly praise the quality of the food and the service.

💯 Direct hit!!! 💯 A perfect restaurant visit from start to finish. ❤️ Perfect service, perfect food (butter chicken) and the pornstar martini was a 10/10. We loved it very much! ❤️

Loved butter chicken of this restaurant

Outstanding truly professional service worthy of any Michelin star restaurant. Also excellent food across the board. They pay attention to details. Recommend you try it.

Beautiful Ambience, Delicious food, humble & kind staff. They gave us a surprise ( a dessert) as it was my birthday.. Must visit..

Mind blowing food .one must try butter chicken

Large, clean restaurant with very good service. As for the food, we knew it was an Indian but even by asking for non-spicy dishes we couldn't get it right. Everyone here was spicy and when I tell you so they maintain that they are not spicy. Ultimately, a matter of taste.

One of the best place for Indian foods. A fine dine restaurant with best food and hospitality. The best one is to start with Mango Lassi.

Our first time with Indian cuisine. Delicious food. Staff great.

The only thing I don't understand is why there isn't a long line for this restaurant (on Sunday evenings). Because I regularly see hordes of people getting off buses to eat here. And I now finally understand why. Incredibly delicious food, very affordable and very friendly service. You rarely find something like this in Amsterdam. We will definitely come back here again!

Taste and Service like wow ❤️❤️

Service made the difference. The vegetarian 'butter chicken' (with Indian cheese instead of chicken) was not necessarily the best choice from the wide variety of non-meat options I could've made but their service more than made up for that. They allowed me to drink my store-bought non-alcoholic beer as I didn't enjoy their available Heineken 0.0 option. Thank you, I will come back when I'm back in the city.

Fantastic Butter Chicken and great service. We will definitely come back here!!

Excellent freshly cooked authentic Indian cuisine with very friendly people in a nice environment, clean and aesthetically pleasing. While personnel was friendly and efficient, service was slow, specially between the starters and the main the wait was simply a bit too much. But overall positive and recommendable experience.

One of my best favourite Indian restaurant

FANTASTIC GREAT CURRY WARM ENVIRONMENT FOR A COLD NIGHT GREAT SERVICE GENEROUS PORTIONS NICE AMBIANCE GREAT TO GO TO - A RESTAURANT THAT HAD IT ALL RIGHT WILL RETURN SO OFTEN GO TO A RESTAURANT AND ITS JUST AVERAGE. THIS IS WAY ABOVE AVERAGE

My recent dinning experience at Guru Restaurant in Amsterdam was nothing short of delightful. The atmosphere was vibrant and inviting, perfectly complimenting the delicious food. The highlight of the evening was a unique painting of Mona Lisa adorned in a Saree, which added a touch of cultural fusion to the decor. I had the pleasure of savouring golgappe, bhindi and roti each dish reflecting the authentic flavours of Indian cuisine. A special mention goes to the two Sardar veerji’s we met, whose friendly demeanour and Chardi kala spirit added an extra layer of joy to the evening. Will definitely love to visit again 🫰🏻❤️😊😊😊

El mejor restaurante indio en la handa de NL abajo! Excelente comida y un servicio muy amable. Nos sentimos como en casa cada vez que visitamos este lugar. Sin duda recomendable! ¡No puedo esperar a volver pronto!

Family atmosphere and very friendly staff. Amazing food, super recommended

Best authentic Indian food in Amsterdam. Incredibly kind staff. Cozy environment. The nan, curry, tandori, and many other dishes are extremely tasty. Highly recommended!

Visité este lugar durante la semana y estaba muy contento con el resultado El personal era increíble y nos cocinó algunas cosas que ni siquiera estaba en su menú Nada era demasiado problema La comida era muy sabrosa y las madras de pollo era si día lo mejor que he comido x El restaurante en sí estaba muy bien decorado sin duda comerá aquí de nuevo

Beautiful food, sincere staff members, aesthetic place, lit music

We had the best indian dinner experience. The food was very tasty and we had good portions. The waiter was kind and the service was excellent. I defenitely recommend to come here if you want to try indian cuisine.

Great restaurant: warm welcome and delicious food! To do

Very happy to gave picked up this Indian jewel - very tasty food (not exceptional, but that I cannot expect for this price range), super service provided that restaurant was full to the brim, large portions… Great sfuff, Gurus!

Top food, with friendly staff and a beautiful place. The mixed grill on the hot plate was still so steaming hot that even the fire alarm went off haha.

The best thing about the restaurant is the behavior of the staff. They are cheerful. The food is delicious, to be honest. Like other Indian restaurants, there is more pepper. All their food is delicious and good. To be honest, the restaurant is spacious. I recommend it. Thank you to all the employees 😊

Ja, het eten is goed en lekker. Maar wat een slechte akoestiek. Hadden bij de reservering gevraagd om een rustige plek en kregen de tafel in het midden van het restaurant. De zaak zat vol, vol met mensen die half schreeuwend probeerden zichzelf verstaanbaar te maken door boven de herrie uit komen. Wat een herrie. Meerdere malen excuses van het personeel, maar wat heb ik daaraan? Men weet het, lost het niet op. Een avondje uit helaas verpest door die herrie. Zonde, want het eten is zeker bovengemiddeld, maar hier zien ze mij en mijn vrienden niet terug.

Rara vez disfruto comiendo fuera en estos días, ya que todo sabe soso, pero ahora he estado en Guru tres veces, y me encantó cada vez. El pollo Madras es absolutamente hermoso - un gran equilibrio de especias y temperatura. Si desea una comida india adecuada, con grandes porciones, le sugeriría este lugar.

A good restaurant with good and delicious food. The staff are friendly and their prices are affordable for everyone

Een restaurant om zeker nog eens vaker te bezoeken. Iedereen heeft heerlijk gegeten en hele fijne, gastvrije medewerkers.

The best Indian I know! Incredibly delicious -Samosas - Onion rings - Naan bread - Butter Chicken -Chicken korma. If you are in Amsterdam definitely come here!!

Very nice Indian food in cute neighborhood

It was a lovely evening, delicious and authentic

Had a wonderful evening tonight! Most authentic Punjabi cuisine I’ve had in Europe!! We only had main course of paneer butter masala and mutton rogan Josh but everything was amazing! Garlic naan was cooked to perfection 3 times over! Slight hiccup with the order initially but staff and management were swift to sort it and made sure we had a lovely evening regardless. Would 1000% return next time in Amsterdam!!

Polite Staff, good envoirment, tasty food! Recommended if you are looking for desi food in Amsterdam!
