The staff was very nice and they even have free Wifi! Yay Would definitely recommend this place for a Delicious and healthy lunch option.

It is a salad with of course lentils, but also goats cheese and nuts and it tastes delicious! I thought all the salads on the menu looked really good so I really want to come back soon. You can also create your own salad and choose all the ingredients. I also a had juice; apple/pear/mint. Delicious! Well it should be because its pretty damn expensive. 5 euros, and not even a big glass.. But well, it was good. There is also free water which is nice. The interior was beautiful and cozy. It really felt good and I felt very relaxed. I really like Venkel! I thought SLA was the best but now I like Venkel even more. The salads just taste amazing. LOVE LOVE LOVE. Just try it soon!

But it made me feel right at home in the best way. The veggies were well seasoned, the dressing was delicious and the tofu especially was heavenly, flavorful and textured to perfection with panko. Plus, their willingness to hold ingredients and replace them with others is super appreciated. The servers were helpful, careful in their prep, and super amenable to the changes I requested. I only dock a star for the ratios. Spinach and cucumber overwhelmed some of the more desirable fixings but it was still highly enjoyable.

The salad wasn't groundbreaking but it tasted fresh and was a great healthy meal after a day of perusing Amsterdam. The space was small, but the decor stylish and welcoming. There was also a small upstairs area where you could sit as well. If you're nearby and looking for some healthy grub, this definitely isn't a bad choice!

I was recommended by my Dutch friend to try the steak at Loetje, and I wasn't disappointed!…read more My friend and I came by Loetje Oost around 6:30 on Sunday evening and there was plenty of seating available. I had made a reservation right beforehand on their website, but I definitely didn't need it. There's a nice patio outside, but because it was starting to get a bit chilly in the evening, we opted to sit inside. My friend got the Thai chicken soup ($8) to start and had the chicken satay skewers ($18.50) for his entree. Interestingly enough, the restaurant was out of chicken (is that really a thing?) so the Thai chicken soup because a Thai veggie soup instead. He didn't mind though, and really liked it as it had a nice coconut flavor. The chicken skewers were good as well. I went straight for the steak and ordered a medium sized beef tenderloin with their garlic gravy ($27.50). The server asked if I wanted fries with that, but I went with a healthier apple compote side for $3.50 instead. I absolutely LOVED my steak, and that's quite rare for me as I'm generally not a steak person. I was a bit worried because she didn't ask how I wanted the steak cooked, but I guess here the default is to cook it on the rarer side and I certainly didn't mind! The steak is served swimming in a pool of gravy, which I've never seen before. Each bite was super tender, and the garlic gravy it came with was super salty so by dipping the meat into the sauce, that guaranteed the meat was flavorful enough. The apple compote was delicious as well, but I wish it was served warm instead of cold. I was very happy with my decision to come here for my first meal in Amsterdam!

Winkel 43 is a legendary stop right on the corner of Westerstraat and Noordermarkt in the Jordaan,…read moreperfectly situated along the Prinsengracht canals and just a short walk from the Anne Frank House. While it functions as a cozy, traditional Dutch brown café, virtually everyone comes here for one main reason: the famous Dutch apple pie (*appeltaart*). It completely lives up to the reputation. Served warm with a massive dollop of fresh whipped cream, it's thick, perfectly spiced, and has an almost cake-like crust that sets it apart. Pairing a slice with a fresh mint tea is pretty much mandatory. Because of its status and location, it's almost always buzzing with people--especially on market days--but the staff manages the perpetual queue remarkably fast. Snagging a table on the outdoor terrace for some people-watching along the canal is hard to beat. Whether you're taking visitors around the neighborhood or just out exploring the Jordaan.

There was a long line and a pretty long wait when we went. The place was fully packed, with both…read moreindoor and outdoor seating. I'd say about 95% of the people were ordering the apple pie, so of course we had to get one to see what the hype was about. The apple pie is pretty unique, it's basically a big chunk of cooked apple topped with a sweet, crumbly cookie like crust. The flavor reminded me of those little brown biscuits you get as airplane snacks... basically Biscoff cookies. lol!!! Overall, you really taste the natural apple flavor along with that Biscoff like cookie flavor. The pie itself isn't very sweet, which I actually liked, but adding some whipped cream definitely brings up the sweetness and makes it even better. The setup is pretty straightforward: get in line, order and pay, pick up your food, then find your own seat. It's definitely a popular spot, so be prepared for the crowd and a bit of a wait.
