Located at Eerste Anjeliersdwarsstraat 18, Amsterdam, the Shah Jahan menu captures the rich flavors of Indian cuisine in a warm and inviting setting. Situated in the heart of Jordaan, this restaurant has become a favorite among both locals and tourists who are looking for authentic dishes that balance tradition with a comforting dining experience.
The menu is broad and diverse, reflecting the culinary heritage of India with a wide variety of choices. Starters include popular classics such as vegetable samosas, onion bhajis, and chicken tikka, all prepared fresh and bursting with aromatic spices. Moving into the mains, the Shah Jahan menu offers everything from mild, creamy chicken korma to bold and fiery vindaloo, ensuring options for every spice preference. Signature dishes like lamb rogan josh, chicken tikka masala, and king prawn curry highlight the restaurant’s dedication to authentic flavors. A good selection of vegetarian specialties such as saag paneer, dal makhani, and aloo gobi add balance and variety, making it suitable for all diners.
During my visit, I ordered the chicken tikka masala with pilau rice and garlic naan. The chicken was tender and infused with tandoori spices, while the sauce was rich, creamy, and layered with flavor. The naan was fresh from the oven, soft and buttery, and the rice complemented the curry perfectly. Other diners seemed to enjoy sizzling tandoori platters and biryanis, both of which are highlights that consistently receive praise.
Service at Shah Jahan is friendly and attentive, with staff willing to explain dishes and recommend pairings based on taste and spice preference. Prices are reasonable, especially considering the portion sizes and quality, making it a solid value in central Amsterdam.
For anyone looking to enjoy authentic Indian cuisine in a cozy and welcoming environment, the Shah Jahan menu offers a dining experience that is both flavorful and memorable.
