Restaurant Manoto Reviews

The food was served cold. On the plate was only a quarter tomato and a quarter onion. The prices were tremendously high, besides, the rice was very dry and had a gummy form.
Not recommendable.

Not hygienic and not good service and also expensive price.I was twice and 2 months ago I have seen very strange dirty things in my kabab.No gone more

Perfect place to try some high quality Persian food. Highly recommended

Good good. Sometimes slow to prepare but worth the wait.

Not the best service, they got the order wrong after going over it 3 times, and the dishes were OK but nothing special. It's hard to find good Persian restaurants and this is certainly not the worst. But, more attentative staff would make the experience better.

Cozy atmosphere and good food in Amsterdam. very nicely decorated too!

Good food, good wine, good service, all you want from a restaurant

Wonderful little Persian restaurant. Very tasty and very lovingly served, and the service is incredibly friendly.

We really desperately spent money on our money. We went to our restaurant. The kebab just drank it, it's yogurt and it's really a zero number. Sorry for money

Ate dinner here one evening with an Iranian friend. Loved the food and thought the service was friendly. There were not a lot of people there that evening (Saturday - 9:30 pm). Wide selection on the menu. Enjoyed the flat bread. Desserts also delicious.

Seems to be quite authentic. Lamb shanks were very good. Server spoke English well.

Delicious Persian/Iranian food, many BBQ and meat dishes, friendly staff.

Delicious Persian food.
Friendly staff.

Sometimes the schedule runs smoothly when it is busy.

We had to wait a long time for our food, there was no starter, as is common in every Persian restaurant, lamb was not cooked through, rice was not cooked properly. There is one star for friendliness.

Very high quality Iranian restaurant. Tasty, succulent dishes. Very nice experience in Amsterdam

Great food, very delicious, love it
good service

Awesome food and service! We live in Toronto Canada with tons of Persian restaurants and a huge Persian diaspora but rarely you find tasty and fine quality food like this! I m originally Persian and I tell you it tastes and feels like best home land restaurants. Give it a try and you will probably convert to Persian food for good the bonus is staff are very warm and friendly too!

food was good, but too much crowded, They had a hard time to handle all requests. I think owners should add some helps or lower the available tables ;)

Calm and relaxing with unique food and friendly service.

Excellent food with a kind and competent service! Highly recommended

Delicious eaten! Very cordial and everything was fresh.

It s delicious food and good service! Really, I like it

Delicious Persian cuisine served by friendly staff. My favorite place in the neighborhood to come with international friends after work for dinner. A wide variety of dishes - especially for meat lovers.

The atmosphere is also lovely. They have shipped the hand-made wood art directly from Iran. Lots of cultural touches in the decoration - giving it a heartwarming Persian vibe.

I don t recommend this place,. Very very rude and confused waitresses , bad food , never going there again

Undoubtedly one of the best and highest quality Iranian restaurants in the Netherlands
I did not eat such kebab even in Iran
I highly recommend

Come here often, delicious Persian dishes that are also very affordable in terms of price. My wife and kids love manoto so we will be back here many times.

Always order here and am very satisfied! Delicious Iranian cuisine

The food is out of this world. You must try it and it's money well spent. Once I found the place, visited there 3 times in 4 days. Oh my, can't wait to go back.

Great quality food and a great environment with fun music. The staff are quite welcoming and the chef is professional. We were from Hamburg on New Year's Eve and enjoyed the food and the restaurant. Every time I go to Amsterdam again, I'll go to the restaurant with you and me.

Great food here! All products are fresh and the meat is always super tender. Super satisfied here!

Delicious food, friendly staff. Definitely come back again!

Stylishly furnished restaurant. Very friendly service and delicious Persian food.

Good location, good food, price is right and customer friendly.

We ordered Koobideh and Soltani. The food was very well cooked and delicious. The plate was a persian design and quite a different experience. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Very good restaurant, I come here often to eat something. Nice Staff and good service.

Nice dinner but after 50 minutes we were unfriendly requested to leave the table because the next guests were already ready. In addition, the coffee ( 3.75 p piece) was not drinkable. We have indicated this kindly after one sip and did not drink any more, but we did have to pay.

Persian Restaurant With Ordinary food and with not so good material and also best Catering

Food was good but staff one particularly lady very unwelcoming and unfriendly.

The food is fantastic , made with fresh ingredients . The terrace was also very nice we enjoyed a lot. The staff and the manager were so kind , I highly recommend this restaurant

Every rhing was veeeeery nice , kheeeili ali va khoshmaze , pazieaee fogholade doostane

Best iranian resturant in Amsterdam, tasty Iranian food, friendly staff.

Myself and three friends went their today really enjoyed the food amazing all round and the staff was great (dametoon garm)

Not a clean and tidy place, service not good at all but food is fine

Tried one of their vegetarian dishes. Very good flavours! Will definitely order there again to try some of their other dishes. Portion was huge, could eat twice from it!

Beste Perzische Restaurant van Nederland.
Het eten is vers en echt lekker.

Delicious Iranian food. I had the combo chicken and lamb kabobs. The seasoning was fantastic. The only downside to this place is the service. They were a little slow and a bit on the rude side at first. But, looking past that, the food was quite tasty. The food definitely outweighs the service here.

High quality of food and very nice personal. I recommend it to who want eat Persian.

Super tasty, I totally did not expect and great staff

The ground beef kabab (kabab koobideh) is good quality, the ratio of beef, fat, spice and onion is perfect. It s not the best I ve had... but it s as good as it should be. The chicken kabab (joojeh kabab) was also done very well... it was a little dry... but otherwise perfect. The kabab portions are humongous. Which bring us to the rice... for the size of the kabab, the portion of the rice is not a match. The rice needs to be twice as more to match the kabab, specially if you get a dish that comes with two kababs... as I did. So I ended up rationing my rice to not run out . The rice was of good quality... but it was dry... needed butter. The butter they provided is not of best quality, which does effect the taste of the rice. The price point is average... not low and not too night. Same as other Persian restaurants. The service was okay... Persian restaurants aren t really service oriented and that applies to all Persian restaurants I ve been to, be it in Amsterdam, London or LA.

Very friendly staff, tasty starters and side dishes, excellent Kebab. Very attractive too.

Excellent food, especially the lamb which is succulent and tender.

Staff are very friendly, great for a relaxing comfortable dinner.

Last time when i came here, the food and service was awesome, but this time it was not really good as last time... GROSS SERVICE and FOOD!

Restaurant MaNoTo Amsterdam

Most terrible restaurant I have ever eaten. I did not even want to make it a problem anymore, but I do not want this to happen to anyone else.

First. I had reserved a table for 18 people at 20:00. Until 20:45 there were still people eating so my guests could not sit at the table.

I saw that it contained their mix appetizer nuts. Well, a guest of mine was allergic to it. I tell them and asked if they could bring a new record. Without the nuts of course. At first I was told that of the 4 starters 1 only contained nuts and she could eat from the other 3. When I told her that I would rather see a new record, because it is quite dangerous for her and could die of it, her colleague who was there was jokingly saying 'then she will not eat that anyway'. Almost had to laugh about it, haha. After almost begging to have a starter without nuts. (Delicious starters though).

Well now comes the Hans Klok section where they came up with a beautiful magic tric.

Apart from the fact that at almost every Iranian restaurants there are things that we never get and in this case saffron beer, which we had ordered, but they did not have in stock. When I asked her about it she said 'Yes I left it for the sake of convenience. I gave your friend a Heineken instead and that is the same price. ' Well, I can tell you that saffron beer cost 5.80 and Heineken less than 3.

But I thought it's my birthday, I do not feel like it at all, so pay it and get out of here.

Bon amounted to 590 euros. I add up to 3x my money and stop 600 euros. All three times I counted 600 euros. Not once 550, not once 650 and not even 500.

And I thought I was still standing or closing that money in the hand, but did not assume that she would take 100 euros, call me back and would casually say with grin that I had given 100 euros too little.
Long story short. Had family and friends with me did not want to make a noise on my own birthday. 100 euros extra typed that my guests and parents would not get anything from it and walked away.

All in all food itself was top notch. But those people there and the service.

I hope you learn from my mistakes and leave MaNoTo Amsterdam nicely to the left.

the lubia polo tasted really bad and wasn't even the traditional lubia polo that is cooked in Iran. when I informed the staff they were very rude about it and suggested we take the delivered food back to the restaurant ourselves !

If you like to taste the Persian foods and desserts in Amsterdam, this restaurant is really recommended.

Delicious eat them, Iranian restaurant with saffron

Super service !!!
Food is always tasty and Quality never changes at manoto. Highly recommended !!!!
Friendly and professional team!

Quite expensive for rice and chicken / my take away order was incomplete (missing the yogurt)/ quality and flavor: below expectations.

You have to try it. I guess you might not like it, but we really good. Fantastic great quality.

Have experienced better service and better quality iranian food. Staff do not know the difference between dry white wine and sweet white wine.

Bad food , dirty restaurant, very rude waitresses. On top of that very expensive.
Don t waste your money here

Food is good but unfortunately Not friendly stuff, feel like you are not wellcome that made me uncomfortable!!

Morsi from Manoto Restaurant
Because of the good food and the warm Iranian place

After a long time of waiting asked for a drink. The coke was finished? The waitress who helped us was quite disinterested. She came to take the order without emotion, without a notebook. The rice was a bowl for three people and not enough. We have asked and received more. I asked for a second drink. After waiting for my Coke Zero for 45 minutes I got a Coke? I sent these back. Coke was finished, right? I also asked for bread, waited for a long time but never got it. My husband has been sick from food all night. Too few staff for the busy Sunday evening. A waitress seemed professional but did not have enough time for the guests. A waste of my 93. Had expected a nice evening. The food tasted like rose water.

Recently with friends enjoyed the three-course menu, the atmosphere was good and the food very tasty.
We have eaten at Manoto before and held various parties.
These were very cozy, well organized and the food was great, the location is also unique.
In short, a big compliment for Manoto. Thank you and goodbye.

Very nice place. Great vegetarian options available. My friends had lamb and chicken and it seems they were amazing. Desserts we had bastani and faluda. Both were great. Nice flavours

Really nice food - new tastes to me- delicious!Very friendly and helpful staff

Like it so much, as I missed the food from home! Go and try! Persian food are the best!!! <3

The waitress had a rude tone and a grumpy face all evening. For instance, she didn t say loud and clear that we had to come to the bar to pay, then got angry cause we didn t come. Pretty poor people skills! Then they kicked us out into the pouring rain to wait for our Uber even though it was 10 minutes before their official closing time. Maybe don t treat your customers like that? Food was okay, but nothing out of this world and didn t seem very clean.

Good diversity of (traditional) delicious dishes. TIP: If pressed they may well be deployed extra force.
