    Terrific burgers. You can watch them cook your meat made to order. I like medium rare, it was perfect. Our vegetarian person ordered the impossible burger. Another person ordered a lettuce wrapped burger (no bun). At our location seating is limited inside but there are a couple of wooden tables and benches outside. Staff is friendly and efficient.

    Cheeseburger and fries

    Amazing burger and fries and a welcome meal for the weary American traveler. Burger was juicy and cooked to medium, bun was fluffy perfection and the fries were big, tasty and plentiful.

    Great little burger joint. The burgers were huge and the fries were crispy on the outside and soft one inside. Very limited seating / space inside though.

    I forgot I started a review and never finished this...this was back in 2019 before this crazy pandemic world we call 2020 I have to say...this was one of the best burgers I've ever had...and no it's not cz we were in Amsterdam *wink wink* Something about Europe...their chips (or fries to us Americans)...man they just got it right...they're always thick fries...like THICC...perfect golden crispy on the outside and that soft tender center like...mashed potatoes...if I wasn't diabetic, I'd eat chips every day of my stay in Europe (and we stayed in London, Paris and Amsterdam) and the fries were amazing everywhere The shop is tiny...down an alleyway and had some long communal tables right outside. Inside the eating area had like maybe 3-4 tables along one wall and some bar seats by the grill..super tiny, my bf was hanging off hallways from the table (note picture) Burgers: there are piles of I believe brioche buns above the grill or something. they were so soft and soaked up the meaty goodness but didn't get mushy, the meat tasted of great quality where u can taste the beef...mine from what I remember had a huge slab of Brie, caramelized onions and arugula and of course a side of fries Being that it was our first time there and my thought process was a little slower *wink wink* I wish the front lady would've been a little nicer and given us some recommendations but either way I managed to choose a winner HIGHLY recommend and hope I can visit again in my lifetime

    My husband and I stopped here our first night in Amsterdam and the burgers were some of the best we've ever had. We've both lived in NYC, the Bay Area and now Portland, OR, all of which are excellent food cities. We've eaten some delicious burgers and the burgers from Burger Bar are at the top of the list. The fries were excellent too, and come with a choice of a variety of homemade sauces. It's a very small place, with just a few tiny tables for two and some seats at the bar. You might have to wait for a seat, but it's worth it.

    Burgers were so good l! Service was quick. Small area but seemed like they turned tables fast. Didn't have to wait long. Meat patties cooked perfectly

    270 Gram Angus burger with Fries and an Orange Fanta!

    Let me start by saying this place is basically the European Five Guys. The burgers have a ton pf flavor and the fries are made a little different a bit harder but I liked it. It is a la carte to give you a heads up. The place is small like all things in Europe but the service was very great amd attentive. If you ever go to Amsterdam you must stop by this place if you're a burger lover.

    The best burgers!

    Excellent burgers in a small but proper location near the central station. Very clean and they wear and change gloves often while handling the raw beef and other toppings. I was impressed with the number of times I saw them changing gloves out. The angus burger was very good. Next time I will try the waygu. Very friendly staff, quick service and all around great burgers!

    Burgers were good. Not great. Sauce on them is a bit much. Service? She got our order wrong twice. Fries were really really good though. Took quite a while to get out order to us. Charged us for ketchup. Then turned around and gave it to another customer for free because "she forgot to order it" paid 50€, worth about 30€. Won't be back.

    Burgers in AMS are pretty hit or miss; certainly not up to US standards, BUT - this is an exception. Burger bar is great!

It's…read moregot that dark, slightly chaotic, "rariteitenkabinet" vibe that makes you feel like you've stumbled into a hidden club rather than a burger joint. We kept it classic this time: * The Ribs: Fall-off-the-bone tender as always. They don't over-sweeten the glaze, which I appreciate. * Le Cannibale Royale: The pulled pork on top of the patty is a heavy hitter, but the sauerkraut actually cuts through the richness perfectly. * The Fries: Still some of the most consistent in the city--thin, salty, and actually hot. Service was busy (it's Handboogstraat, so what do you expect?), but the staff was super chill and kept the craft beers flowing. It's loud, it's moody, and it's exactly what I wanted for a late-night feed. Plus, I've noticed they actually take the time to read and reply to feedback here, which is a rare find for a place this popular. Keep doing what you're doing!

    We just happened to see this restaurant while walking back towards our meet-up location during our…read morefree time in Amsterdam. I originally thought it was the German Burgermeister chain which we really liked in Lucerne. We were even more curious when finding out that it's a local burger spot with only 3 locations in Amsterdam. This one is located on Utrechtsestraat in the city center near Rembrandt Square. It appears to be a small space when you first enter. There's a downstairs kitchen with bar seating as well as a booth at the window. Their actual dining area is upstairs. We were greeted immediately and asked to sit anywhere. Our order was taken at the table. It was great service from the get-go! I think our biggest first impression was the cleanliness of the restaurant and bathrooms. You just don't see that level of clean just anywhere. The burgers here are exceptional. They are gourmet-type burgers that are cooked to order. We thought about getting fries with it, but decided not to after seeing the size of these burgers. I could barely eat it all. Our Mokum Cheese Burger was absolutely delicious and very juicy. I loved every topping. I can't name it all, but I know it had some type of aged cheese with a hint of horseradish in the sauce. The pickles were tasty. I wish I could give you every ingredient. All I know for sure is that it's made with Blonde d'Aquitaine beef. They have a cookbook for sale if you're interested. The drinks are varied from gin & tonic to beer, wine, and lemonade. I enjoyed their loose-leaf jasmine mandarin tea served hot. There's a little room upstairs for creative people who like to sketch. I saw some of them decorating the walls. Having a burger in different countries may seem uninspiring for some people. I've found it to be very telling of the local culture and flavor. Especially in restaurants that have a standard of high quality ingredients. This is one that I'd go back to when visiting Amsterdam. The service made it even better.

I found it browsing Yelp, and the name alone told me this was going to be a meat-forward kind of night. Fair warning if you're bringing anyone squeamish about restaurant names: The wife wasn't thrilled about it going in, though the food won her over fast. Getting there was its own small adventure. The place sits down a narrow alley, and our Uber couldn't get us all the way to it, which turned into a bit of a hike. That happened to us more than once in Amsterdam, using the exact address didn't always mean the driver could actually reach the door, so budget a few extra minutes if you're headed here. I normally default to steak, but the menu had a burger topped with pulled pork that promised more meat than a straight cut, and I couldn't pass it up. Delicious. Genuinely one of the best burgers I've had. But the wife's flat iron steak might have stolen the night. Flat iron is one of the most underrated cuts out there, and this kitchen proved it. She was still talking about that steak days after we got home, enough that I ended up buying flat irons from Costco just to chase it. The atmosphere is cool and a little edgy, dim lighting, a lot of character, and yes, some genuinely creepy decor scattered around, including an old doll that stares at you like it's judging your order. It ran loud, but not so loud we couldn't hold a conversation across the table. Service was good, just on European time rather than American time. Getting the check took a while, which threw us off at first, but that's the norm across the EU, not a knock on this place specifically. Pricey, but worth every bit of it. We'd go back without hesitation next time we're in Amsterdam.

    Great spot for dinner!…read more This place is giving dive bar in so many ways, but the food quality is stepped up. It was very warm in the place, so keep that in mind if you're traveling in Amsterdam during a heat dome! We had a couple servers who worked with us nd both were kind and friendly. They didn't quite communicate with each other about our need to split the check a specific way, but it worked out in the end. We enjoyed some cocktails and beer (ranging from 9.50 Euro to 12 Euro), as well as the Pork Belly and Pickles to start off (21.50 Euro for 300 grams). Tasty way to start the meal. The three of us shared our mains and enjoyed what we had. The Favorite Ribs (24.50 Euro) were flavorful; the L'Incroyable 300gr (Ribeye; 34.50 Euro) was good, but our least favorite of what we ordered; the Le Cannibale Royale 170gr (burger) was super tasty. We also enjoyed some frites (4.90 Euro) and some delicious Mac n Cheese (6.50 Euros). Good time and good food!
