Rangoli Indian restaurant was a standout during our visit to Amsterdam. The food was amazing, with a wide variety of delicious chaat options. The location was convenient and the service was excellent. The atmosphere was also great, with a welcoming and friendly vibe. We ended up visiting Rangoli multiple times during our stay in Amsterdam because we enjoyed it so much. Overall, we had a fantastic experience at Rangoli and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Amsterdam and looking for delicious Indian food.

Just as every pther Indian restaurant, this one did not dissapoint me:) The food was amazing (just look at the pictures😋) and the staff was incredibly nice and attentive. I came here right after opening hours so there were not many people, which I really enjoyed. However, I am giving it a four-star review, because, in my opinion, the Naan bread was a bit dry (even though, I suppose, it is how it is supposed to be made). Anyway, best recommendations, hope to come back sometime in the future!:)

Good Indian food! Samosas were a little bland. Asked them for some spice and that helped it. The lamb spinach was amazing. A bit mushy for me but great tenderness and flavor!

During our tour with MakeMyTrip, led by our wonderful guide Ronnie, We stopped by this restaurant for dinner. The place was decent and pleasantly quiet when we arrived, which made for a relaxing dining experience. The food was excellent—every dish we had was delicious and satisfying. We also ordered a glass of red wine (not included in the tour package), which we happily paid for. What stood out to us was the service. We offered a tip, thinking it was the norm especially since we ordered drinks, but the server politely refused to accept it. It was quite impressive and honestly surprising, especially coming from the U.S., where tipping is a big deal. Overall, everything was great—the food, the service, and the atmosphere. One small thing to note: the restrooms were tiny! You could barely move around in there, but it was so compact it actually came off as kind of cute. Highly satisfied and would gladly dine here again!

I have visited on Kings day’24. I have ordered : Paneer tikka: Good Papri Chat: Okay Plain Dosa: Okay but I did not like chutney sambar which were given along with Dosa. Vegetable Biryani: Average I think this should be renamed as Vegetable Pulao rather Vegetable biryani. Then it would serve the purpose atleast to small extent. Mango lassi: Okay It’s a small restaurant and it’s near to central railway station. One/Two time visit.

One of the city's longest established Indian restaurants, Rangoli is an inviting Indian restaurant located at the beginning of Haarlemerstraat, not far from Central Station. The restaurant is well known for its authentic and flavorful Indian dishes and offers two distinct cuisines from North and South India. In the North, breads such as chapati and naan form part of the basic diet, which is influenced by Central Asian and Persian styles due to historical interactions and includes popular favourites like Chicken Tikka, Butter Chicken, Lamb Rogan Josh and a variety of Biryani dishes. Dishes from the South are generally rice-based and tend to be spicier than their northern counterparts. Dishes include dosa, idli, sambar, rasam, and a variety of coconut-based chutneys. The restaurant features a warm and cozy ambiance, with decor elements inspired by Indian culture. Menu items are reasonably priced. When using one of the popular delivery services, there is normally no extra charge for delivery.

The food portion was quiet small for the price we paid. Toilets were dirty too, no hand towels either.

So it was freezing cold and rainy outside when we went along to Rangoli before the Michael McInytre show later. Since our booking was early it was empty when we went before 6pm. It was cold in the restaurant and they weren’t going to put on the heating for just the 3 of us. The food was ok/very average. The spicing tasted a bit harsh and the vegetables overcooked. The prawns weren’t as tender as they should have been and the curry sauce wasn’t as delicious as it sounded on the menu. The garlic nan was v good and so was the Thali set menu. It filled a spot but it wasn’t the satisfying Indian meal we were hoping for.

The restaurant was warm and cosy which was definitely welcome on a cold, windy, and rainy day in Amsterdam. It says South Indian but that title does not look too accurate. The food was good but could have been better. We also did not see too many South Indian items on the menu. Calling this Indian restaurant would make it more accurate.

The food here was good. We tried the North Indian and the South Indian thali. The curries in the North Indian thali were good, esp. the dal and saag were nicely prepared. The South Indian thali was good too but the sambhar and chutney served with the dosa were okay to average. The staff is friendly and gave us some suggestions. Overall, a good Indian restaurant

Food and service was great. Best indian food I found here in Amsterdam and also during my trip through europe. Waiters are polite but are instructed by the owner for some reason to deny for water. Like how much effort is it for anyone to pour tap water and serve. Thats the most basic indian etiquette I expect when arriving in an Indian restaurant, that too being run by a fellow indian migrants.

Food was ok but not great at all. The service was a bit poor considering there weren't many people there. They forgot part of my friends order. By the time it was brought out we were half way through dinner. It's a first restaurant I came across in Amsterdam does not serve tap water, it's compulsory to buy a water bottle for 6.5 Euro. I would prefer to go to other nearby restaurant instead of picking this one.

During our visit to an Indian restaurant in Amsterdam, we were unfortunately met with disappointing service that left a sour taste, far removed from the warm hospitality we had hoped for. From the moment we arrived, the staff appeared indifferent and unwelcoming, barely acknowledging our presence. Our order took an unusually long time to arrive, and when it did, a couple of dishes were either cold or not what we had requested. Attempts to politely address the issues were met with dismissiveness, and there was little effort made to rectify the situation. While the ambiance had potential, the overall experience was marred by poor customer service and a lack of basic courtesy, which made us feel more like a burden than valued guests. It’s disheartening to see such a place miss the mark, especially in a city known for its diversity and hospitality. Not preferable to anyone
