We ordered a breakfast burrito, chicken Caesar salad wrap, espresso, & I believe the Lutus chai latte or maybe apple pie chai latte (either way super yummy & not TOO sweet). The Caesar Wrap was probably the best one I have ever had, we actually were craving it in the evening but they are closed after lunch so we got it to-go on our way out of town! Definitely recommend for breakfast or a quick bite. The caffe is super cute and would even be a good spot to maybe do some work.

I arrived at Loetje asking for a space for one, and the host asked if I had a reservation:…read more ME: "No." HOST: "The restaurant is full." (The restaurant was not full.) "All the reservations are booked. It will be a forty-five minute wait." ME: (Thinking my hotel is across the canal, so I can stow my shopping and return:) "All right, can I put my name down?" HOST: "No. I told you, all the reservations are booked." ME: "You said it was a forty-five minute wait. How do you get that?" HOST: "You sit down." ME: "Okay. Goodbye." The message was delivered with an unusually sharp, brusque manner that left me rather nonplussed, as if a silent, "...so you can $&@% off," was at the end of each sentence. Well, same to you, Loetje.

The classic is served with bread on the side to sop up all that buttery goodness.. but be quick! The steak is consistently delicious, and is what keeps us coming back time and time again. ** tip : the small is 150g (just over 5oz), I recommend ordering medium (Klassieker) ** The service at this location is not the best I've seen compared to their other location. Though, I will give them some grace because this place gets SO busy. Your server is your server. If you're wanting to add something to your order and they're busy, you're stuck waiting for them to come to you. Another server won't help you find them or take down any additions. At first I thought it was because it was busy and we were a large group, but we went back another time when it was pretty quiet and it was the same thing. They offer the ability to order via QR code, but it's limited to drinks, if they would expand this feature to more items - if its not the full menu, perhaps appetizers, sides and desserts, that could help alleviate the bottleneck. Easy to find, centrally located, right in front of Amsterdam Centraal it gets busy! Highly recommend booking a reservation if you have the ability. Easily done on their website.

The inside was completely empty while they seated most folks outside in the patio. We initially wanted to sit inside for the vibes but not a big deal (it was a nice day out). Food was so/so. The presentation was nice but the flavor wasn't all there. The staff needed to be flagged down for service and in general were kind, might not have been equipped for a large group (even though we made a reservation ahead of time. The deconstructed beef tartare was OK, but the meat was pretty one note. Fries were good. Would not recommend the pork belly - covered in a too sweet, sweet & sour sauce and was tough. Burger looked great, but a little dry. Not sure I would come back, but could be a good spot for small bites.

The weather was beautiful on this April day. I had been walking around aimlessly, like a vagrant in search of his muse, confused, each passerby as much as stranger as the next, in desperate need of sustenance for the journey ahead. The "Waag Crostinis" is *exactly* the amount of food and the taste that I was looking for. Raw meat, raw fish, white stuff.... how can you go wrong? Paired with a large beer, I was very happy. The sun was shining, that might make some happy, but it's a miracle I didn't fizzle into ashes. I'd liked to have eaten inside for a proper dinner, but because of a wonky schedule and an hourglass with its precious sand particles falling away, this was my only chance to eat here.

Delicious food, fast service, and great Amsterdam dining experience!…read more We stopped by Cafe Luxembourg for dinner in August 2023 after our first day of exploring Amsterdam. It was a challenge to find a restaurant having space for 4 people around 6-7pm. We were walking by people sitting outside, relaxing, and happily eating and felt very lucky getting seated there as well. The food didn't disappoint! All the dishes we ordered were truly delicious and had a nice presentation! We really enjoyed our dinner while watching passers-by on a typical Amsterdam street. Thank you Cafe Luxembourg for such a great finishing for our first day in Amsterdam! We certainly recommend Cafe Luxembourg if you are in the area looking for a local Amsterdam dining experience. (Not local food though.) Food ordered Beef Carpaccio - excellent, tender, melting in the mouth with perfect accompaniments! Quiche Luxembourg - perfect! Chicken Satay - tasty. Luxemburger - great juicy burger, done exactly as ordered - medium rare! Kids Satay - our 8y older daughter loved it! Dame Blanche "Chocotoff" - don't miss this one! Apple Pie with Ice cream - good as it's supposed to be.

Wow, I had never had a sandwich that's so horrible that a five-year-old can make it better!…read moreWe just needed a quick bite after settling at the Avani Museum Quarter Amsterdam Hotel, and found this cafe which is about a 5-minute walk. I went in with my family and ordered the Roasted Ham & Honey Mustard sandwich which says on the menu: "warm roasted ham with honey mustard sauce served on a ciabatta" It was just 2 pieces of white bread with some mustard squeezed on, not even spread to cover the whole piece of bread, and a piece of COLD deli meat taken out of a package and just randomly thrown between the bread, and was then cut in half. They didn't even bother placing the bread nicely on the plate. Since my family ordered something a little bit more expensive from the menu, theirs were ok, nothing to write home about.

After a great experience at the MOCO we decided to grab a quick bite to eat. We came to this Brasserie due to the great reviews. The initial interaction was excellent.

About two minutes later, a different server came up to us and asked us to wait outside. This was not being asked to wait but the attitude and unprofessionalism that led to this negative experience.

I should have returned but too much to see and too many areas to explore. They're attached to a hotel but don't let that keep you away from trying this amazing place. The gluten free bread was wonderful as was the gravy served over the chicken. The ambiance is quite lovely and upscale. Great for a date night or for a fun night out or a business meeting. If I lived here I'd return weekly it was that good. The staff were super helpful as well and make great recommendations on good wine bars for me to explore in other areas. Great meal, wonderful service and a beautiful restaurant! Highly recommend it.
