About this business
This wonderful restaurant serves delectable Indian cuisine in an intimate ambiance enhanced by pale yellow walls and orange hued seating. Owner Anju Sharma named her restaurant "Amma," meaning mother, to signify a cooking style which is reminiscent of an Indian mother's kitchen. The cuisine is authentic Indian with outstanding dishes such as the Bombay bhelpuri, kararee bhindi, fish moileey, and apricot-filled lamb chops. Vegetarian and non-vegetarian tasting menus paired with appropriate wines including Indian wines are ava... read more

2 thumbs down – my first time here was with my gf for our 12 month anniversary. so i thought why not change it up a bit. Place was loud, not very romantic, food was 2.5/5 service was 3/5. but still my date was bad
bad experience – ok its easy... cold food VERY!!! slow service Price is to high
Over Hyped – I'll keep this short. Amma is nothing special. The two star chefs left quite some time ago to open their own place. I ate here a week ago and found most dishes average at best and too expensive. Will not be back.
Neigborhood establishment at a premium price – Amma has the worst value for money I have experienced in NYC over the past 2 years. The food is o.k., but not any better than what you get at a good neighborhood restaurant. But for whatever reason, prices are about twice as high. It cannot be the ambience, because the place is very cramped and some guests have to sit in an aisle. The most annoying thing, though, is the fact that the servers seem to be trained to drive revenue. Nothing against a good sales call, but the tactics ... read more
Too pricey for the quality – The only good part of this place was a candlelight on the table. This has a very cramped setting. The menu is limited. Food quality - particularly, non-veg is bad. Good item was a Bhindi (Okra) item. Spend more than $110 for two and was not satisfied.
Great food and service – Once I found this place, it's the first place I think of when I think of Indian food. It is very well prepared and served tastefully. The mix of dishes is great and our waiter has always made great suggestions. We really felt cared for.
EXCEPTIONAL RESTAURANT - BRITS IMPRESSED ! – We have looked for a long time for a good indian restaurant in NYC. And finally we've found one !! Everything is great - very friendly people, good explanantions to the food, very authentic flavours from various regions. Suggestions were made to compliment our meal which turned out to be one of the best indian meals for a long time. Refreshing to see many Indian families and couples, too, enjoying a night out. As Londoners we are quite discerning when it comes to food from the Sub... read more
absolutely AMAZING all around! – First off, let me just say that this is the first restaurant i've been to that made me open a citysearch acct just to write a review. we got there an hour later than our reservation on a saturday night and they seated us immediately. my husband has certain food allergies, and they were 100% accomodating even for the tasting menu which is seven courses for $50 - they even substituted dishes for ones that he couldn't have. i'm indian, my husband is an indian-food enthusiast, and we both thought... read more
