Fodor's Expert Review Balraj

$$ Jordaan Indian

This is the oldest Indian restaurant in Amsterdam (it opened in 1977), and it's a longtime favorite of curry connoisseurs. Although the decor is unremarkable, the restaurant is impeccably clean and the servers unfailingly friendly. All of the snacks, soups, and meals are delicious: you'll break out in a happy sweat if you order the spicy chicken Madras. The sweet cardamom tea is a good accompaniment to your meal.
