Join the line at Roopram Roti, the Amsterdam-Oost institution for Surinamese cooking. Tuck into lamb roti with its spicy sauce or a roti roll with chicken, beans and potatoes, the way locals have for years.

📖

Full description

Roopram Roti is a casual Surinamese restaurant in Amsterdam-Oost built around roti: the lamb roti with its spicy sauce and the hand-held roti rolls filled with chicken, beans and potatoes both earn praise for succulent meat and flavourful sides. Reviewers describe it as an institution, worth the long queues, with good service.

Portions and extras draw occasional complaints, so it pays to check what is included when you order. Opening in the afternoon and closing around 9 PM, it is a mid-range, local-feeling stop that suits solo diners and anyone after genuine Surinamese cooking.
