Angus beef burger with cheddar and jalapeños
diana h.

Small place near the red light district with some outdoor seating as well. The food was nothing to write home about, but more of a means to end our hunger. There is only one cook, so service was not too quick. The fries were pretty standard, and the burger was good but a bit greasy for my taste. You pay up at the register when finished.

Sad dry burger with sad serving of fries

STAY AWAAAAAY. If you're looking for a burger place please take the extra few minutes to walk to Nude Burger. We got two burgers and an order of fries and it was the worst meal we've had in Amsterdam. The burgers come with one little slice of tomato that barely covers a quarter of the burger and one sad piece of pickle. They probably shouldn't serve the burger open-faced like that because it is the most depressing presentation of food. I was so appalled that I didn't take even a photo of it because it wasn't worth being part of my album. Furthermore, the menu says that all burgers are cooked to "medium baked," I think in Dutch that means "dry af" because that's the burger I was served. At this point in my meal, I did take a photo of my bitten burger to show how dry it looks even in the pic. And the fact that I only got one tiny slice of tomato couldn't save the dryness. The serving of fries was also pathetic. And we paid separately for an order of fries NOT the fries that comes with the "plates" combo by the way. Please I beg you, go to a different burger restaurant. The only reason we even came here is because we needed to get out of the rain and it was the closest burger place. Mistake.

I can't fully enjoy a burger without a nice side of fries. My burger was ok. But the fries were meh. Just seems such an incomplete experience. The lamb burger was flavorful although they were a little heavy handed on their "special" sauce which I found a little too sweet and not so special. The bun was actually quite good. But the fries were such a disappointment that I don't know if I could go back. Others seemed to really enjoy their angus burgers so if you're not a fry freak like me then maybe you'll have a better time.

I ordered the Black Angus Beef burter with Cheddar cheese, pineapple and ketchup sauce. I should've added the Baked egg to it, but thought it would've been too much. Which I was right. The budget was so good and filling. Hope I can walk out of here. Hahaha.

The burgers are actually quite okay. Nice buns, great you can choose your own toppings. They have some really nice fresh ones to choose from. The burgers themselves were not medium done as promised but well done instead. A pity. The guys explained that the Dutch (which by the way we all were in our party of three) don't like red meat... Why then put it one the menu we ask... Probably we came across as a bunch of people not really knowing what we really like? The fries that came with the burgers where the usual ones. Nothing special. Service could be better. Pity that they don't serve alcohol. I would've loved a glass of red wine. The music was really loud and annoying. Just one of the worst Dutch commercial radio channels.

"I came into this restaurant just strolling the streets looking for something casual and reminded me of food back home in the USA. The burger was great, the atmosphere was clean and lively. Decent prices too!" - Ansel Ponce Diama

One of the best burgers I've ever had. Friendly service, and quite a few fries were served with the meal. I ate here twice while in AMS.

I've been to a few of the other locations, but the Handboogstraat spot just hits different. 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.

Delicious inventive burgers and lovely service. Tried the cheese burger with harissa mayo and…read morepancetta and truffle fries. All were delicious. Little touches like finely shave onions on the burger instead of thick sliced rings made for a better overall burger. Definitely recommend
