The food was good and the pricing was appropriate. The restaurant was, however, populated with some undesirable guests, i.e. 3 rats. It didn’t make things better that one of the waiters tried to convince us that “it’s normal in Amsterdam” and that “he should get three cats to go after them”. They decided to offer us free dessert for the rodintconvenience and it felt like the waiter didn’t want us to get one each (there was just 2 of us). Long story short, the food isn’t bad but the hygiene standards are probably very low, especially considering they didn’t even seem to care about the rats being there.

Good Nepalese restaurant (especially the Chili chicken, the momos and the sweet potato fries) and nice service. I would recommend making a reservation with theFork to have a discount.

As a Nepali, this was the most disappointing Nepalese food I ever tried. I had ordered chicken momo and veg fried rice through an online service. The chicken and the momo dough both were still RAW!!! The veg fried rice was way below average plus the worst sauce ever served. Please never visit this restaurant or order from here. Its insulting to the value that Nepalese food carry!

I ordered the food though Uber eats, normal estimated time for delivery shown in the application was 25 -30 mins, food was never been delivered and delayed for over 1.5hours. I called restaurant and they replied it will be delivered in 5 mins however it never got delivered. Later when I tried to reach the restaurant no one answered my call from restaurant

Ordered via Uber eats and did not arrive yet, one hour after delivery time. They also do not pick up the phone.

Embarking on a culinary journey at Monkey Temple in Amsterdam is akin to being warmly welcomed into a Nepalese home. The vibrant yet comforting flavors of each meticulously crafted dish sing tales of Nepal's rich culinary heritage. From the attentive and genial staff to the inviting ambiance, every element coalesces to forge an immersive dining experience that feels both exotic and familiar. Engaging in such an extraordinary gastronomic adventure amidst the cozy and thoughtfully curated environment of Monkey Temple is not merely dining; it is an exquisite merger of culture, flavor, and heartfelt hospitality. Truly a gem in Amsterdam’s culinary scene.

Very good place to try authentic nepalese food! The staff was very kind and gave me very good recomendations! Also the food was delicious! The only thing was that they were out of nepalese beer but that didn’t do anything with the experience at all!

As an Indians we are always looking for good food especially for us we were looking for good vegetarian food around Amsterdam and we found this. Trust me this is amazing restaurant which serves good Nepalese food, we tried Nepalese thali, mango shake, momos. We just loved the taste there and service as well. Ambience is not all that good but over all its a cozy restaurant where you can have different items, we asked for a bit spice curry and it was as asked. We are gonna definitely going again. There are lots of Non vegetarian items as well/

Different style of food but similar to the Indian food. They serve large potions of Rice.The food was not bad,the service was good,staff was friendly but slow.I liked the Indian food more than the Nepalese.The location is excellent.

We had their veg and non-veg thali and a plate of momos and veg chowmein . Momos were great and non veg dish was great in thali but apart from that I did not find any amusing just okayish. The chowmein were not good so never order that. You can give it a miss as well.

Visited Amsterdam for 5 days and ate at this restaurant because the food was so good. Great choice of cocktails and the food was cooked perfectly. Ordered the non-veg mixed platter for starter and also lamb curry for main. Portion sizes are great and the food always comes out piping hot.

Samosa chaat was delicious! Fresh toppings and a nice hot samosa inside. To add, the mango lassi was delicious. Will be coming back for the tandoori platter as I saw it sizzling on a hot plate while I was on my way out.

Great food, make sure u know ur limits because it is actually spicy. The staff does warn u and explain and are efficient. Loved it!

Friendly staff Good price-performance ratio Very tasty food. But some dishes are too meat-heavy, so I will rather take the vegetarian ones in the future. I chose jalfarazi with chicken. I felt like I only had chicken in my mouth and could hardly taste the sauce (the actual highlight for me) 😕 The cocktails (at least my cocktail) are a bit expensive at 200ml and almost 9€

The food was great. Personable service. They accommodated our group of 5 with a family style dinner of Nepalese dishes. We couldn't have been happier with the experience.

We booked a table via fork and had 50% discount. We ordered starters immediately and we chose to take away the main course. The service was faster but for relatively slower than other restaurants in the lane. We saw many people waiting just for starters for more than 30-40 mins. Chicken momos are awesome, specially the spicy sauce that comes with it. Cocktails were not nice and chicken chowmein was also okay. While paying, we were told that the 50% discount by fork is not ok starters which wasn’t explicitly mentioned to us by the waiter at first when we told him that we have a discount by fork.

Great place... Amazing food! Very polite staff that go above and beyond to make things tasty and right for the customer. I definitely recommend

Friendly staff and the meat was cooked till it melted in your mouth.

Don’t expect exceptional experience, food is okay and service is really fast but the environment makes the place disturbing. They have something going on upstairs and people trespass every time makes the disturbance while eating.

Delicious and perfectly spiced meal! Service was a bit slow but not terrible. I would definitely return :) Thank you for a nice evening.

Delicious food, very friendly waiters, niet interiour. From now on my favorite place to eat!
