Small, unpretentious restaurant with genuinely good food. The momo dumplings were fantastic. We ordered egg drop soup on a rainy winter night. It was warm and perfect for the weather. I would highly recommend this place.

The service, momos, Tibetan tea and homemade chili sauce are great. Unfortunately, the entrees are quite bland. The lamb stew tastes like beef with broccoli from an international Chinese food restaurant. The chicken curry is pleasant but uninspiring. Four stars because a meal of appetizers(i.e. dumplings) would be quite lovely here.

Delicious food. Lots of vegetarian options which was great. Had the fried rice, Tse Momo(steamed dumplings), and the mushroom vegetable soup. All of the vegetables were fresh and perfectly cooked. Small but cozy atmosphere. Dumplings were Devine!

Amsterdam jewel! Authentic Tibetan fare with generous service from the staff. It’s reasonably priced yet a distinct step above other restaurants in quality and taste. We ordered sautéed veggies, a beef curry, and individual servings of pan fried noodles and steamed buns. I loved the soft steamed buns! Each dish had came out with a different combination of spices, a refreshing discovery in a touristy downtown area where there is little novelty and dishes tend to taste the same. Wonderful selection to choose from — noodles, curries, stir-fried plates, dumplings, vegetarian choices, and more! Hands down my favorite restaurant in Amsterdam. There is nothing like this in San Francisco, where we have oodles and oodles of Asian restaurants.

Small and friendly spot, with reliable food. Nice selection of vegetarian dishes and willing to adjust to taste(as in, they are friendly and that the food is made fresh). Love the vegetarian combo of momo(steamed dumplings). They sound bland but are really tasty.

Fresh, spicy, and excellent! Food is moderately priced, but the taste is incredible. Great spot for vegetarians and vegans.

Momos are delicious here. Really the reason to come here at all. Other dishes are just average. Service is excellent. Clean and cozy.

Our first night in Amsterdam and we stopped here for a meal. The place is small but the service is very friendly. Lots of selections for vegetarians and they are clearly marked on the menu The food is served fresh and hot, as we started with the vegetarian momo which were steamed and filled with veggies and rice noodles — served with a smoky spicy sauce, yum. Our dinners were served with steamed rice and both came with a nice assortment of vegetables. Overall definitely a four star, the food I may only give a three.

I don’t know much about Tibeten food but I like this restaurant. It’s very small and don’t be surprised if the hostess asks if someone can join you at your table if you have space. I saw it happen both times I’ve been there. That can be a positive or a negative depending how you feel. … And who you are seated with! The food tastes fresh and is moderately spicy. Ask for the home made hot sauce with mommos, steamed dumplings. The vegetarian selection is large and though I haven’t found the dish that totally knocks me out yet I really like the mommos and am planning to go back and explore the menu some more?

Das Snow Lion ist ein kleines, sehr heimelig im tibetischen Stil eingerichtetes Restaurant mit ganz bezaubernd nettem, charmantem Personal. Wir haben hier ganz leckere tibetische Momos gegessen, während uns der Dalai Lama von Bildern an der Wand zulächelte. Die tibetische Kellnerin hat uns alle Gerichte sehr freundlich erklärt, und wenn die tibetische Küche noch so unbekannt ist, so ist sie doch vorzüglich. Hier kann man sie gut kennenlernen!

Love the Snow Lion! First time eating Tibetan food and it did not disappoint. Nice amount of heat with really flavorful food. The shrimp(at least I think they were shrimp) were a yummy start to the meal so good I was tempted to ask for another bowl. I was glad I didn’t as the entrée was pretty big! Will definitely seek out Tibetan again!
