Forgive me as I do not know the name of this dish but this was probably the most delicious pasta…read morethat I have ever had. I stumbled upon this place on accident trying to get out of the cold in Amsterdam and I'm glad that I did! The aesthetic was homey but with a modern twist-I felt like I was in a family members home eating dinner. The service could have been better which was odd because it wasn't really busy. This was my first time trying true Italian pasta outside of the States and now I can't look back. I would for sure recommend this place for a chill and familiar vibe for a drink or a bite to eat.

In A Nutshell:…read more -Tapas Duende is the first tapas restaurant that opened in Amsterdam. -It was recommended to me by a local bike tour guide & he didn't disappoint! -If you are in the mood for some really tasty tapas, this is the place to go. -Tucked away in the Jordaan neighborhood, you will find this spot. -It can get packed very quickly, so go early to secure a table. -I ordered their salad, clams, shrimp & mushroom dishes. -They all fit perfectly together like a puzzle. Overall, the service was friendly, the environment cozy & the price was right :)

Found this place and decided to give it a try! Great, friendly staff and reasonably priced options. I'd give 4 stars. Main reason for 4 stars, is that I really needed a veggie option after eating snacks all day so that was my one note. The food though was fresh and delicious! I'd go back!

We've been to the French Connection 3 times over a period of 1.5 years, each for special occasions…read more The food remains consistently interesting and delicious, and the waitstaff is really friendly and formal without feeling too fancy. We did notice a slight price increase based on the way they've changed up the tasting menu offerings since our last visit, but we still had a special occasion meal with a €55 bottle of wine for €180 total for 2 people. To me, that is very affordable for such a nice meal. What we really love is that the menu is changed drastically each time we visit, so we get to try different items and have a new experience each time. The tasting menu options are very affordable as tasting menus go! Our favorites this time were the mussels as well as the tomatoes with dijon ice cream (yes!). For me, the beef cheek was not so nice. But that's what is great about the tasting menu... there are enough samplings to leave full, even if you skip one or two items or leave a bit of food behind (not that my hubby didn't finish everything I did not!). We are leaving the Netherlands this month back to NYC, and this is one of the restaurants we will miss the most! We know we can get a meal of this caliber, but not at this price, in New York!

Needless to say my colleague was utterly delighted! I'll be back for more for sure.

If ever this place gets less then 5 stars, that person has no taste buds. I started with a spicy salmon roll which was da bomb. I could attempt to go into details but I won't do it justice. Just go. I followed it up with Dim Sum and it's Japanese equivalent. For people back home in the 506 that's dumplings or "des dough boy". I don't usually have dessert but after having the best dim sum of my life I chose some salted caramel ice cream rig that almost killed me with joy. I also cannot forget to mention the wonderful waitress working that night that was very helpful. Wonderful place. I'll be back. I don't remember what I had to drink but if you deduct a star at a food joint because of drinks...you stink

We came in with a massive group and the staff was more than happy to help us out and cater to our needs. Getting a refill on our drinks was the only thing which took time but it wasn't unreasonable. The top is themselves were surprisingly quick to the table. As for the tapas, just about everything was tasty. For vegetarian stuff the green peppers were great as usual, but make sure to put salt on them. The tomatoes are also really tasty and patatas brava of course. The mushrooms were a little ordinary though. The paella looked really good and tasted so according to others even though I didn't try it. Will certainly go back with a smaller group to try out other dishes.

It reminds me of Pata Negra, with the tiles on the wall and being so dark. The service was fast here. The friendly waitress came quickly to ask us if we wanted drinks and also came quickly when we wanted to order the food. The food also arrived fast, There were plenty of choices on the menu. Fish, meat or vegetarian. All good. We tried a few different things like grilled sardines, patatas bravas, lamb chops, olives, stuffed eggs, chicken, gamba's pil pil. Everything was so yummy! This place really knows quality. I loved it, especially the lamb chops and the gamba's. Everything was for a fair price as well. If you order 2 dishes a person with your party (dishes will be like 6,50) and start of with some bread and olives, have about 2 drink it will cost you like like 22 each. Not much! I will certainly come back and try more veggie dishes next time because they looked great as well.
