Next to Frits another restaurant on the Jan Evertsenstraat that doesn't deserve your attention or…read moreyour money. Such a waste. Can't cook a decent pasta sauce. Vegetables that serve no purpose to the dish other than cleaning out the leftovers from the night before. It takes them forever. For. Ever. Well done burger that gets served almost raw. Popcorn appetizer that tastes like dust gone bad. I really don't know what to say. It was wasn't crowded. The food isn't that fancy and almost impossible to screw up. But they still manage to do just that. Still: an extra star because the pancetta on the burger was pretty nice and this review took me a while, so I'm a little less pissed off than a few minutes ago.

The wines were tasty and moderately priced. The second time around I went with my manfriend for burgers. At 15.50 a pop, it's a bit pricey but warranted. The combination of cheddar, bacon (!) and caramelized onions makes it worth the extra stretch. Add a la chouffe + the cardamom vanilla creme brulee, and you're sure to be in happy company.

We ordered several small appetizers to try different things. The minced lamb with tomato sauce and the gyros as well as the bread and baked feta cheese with honey were very delicious. We were a little surprised that a portion of tsaziki was 5,50 € and were served a beer without ordering it though. The restaurant is close to the water which is nice if you want to take a walk afterwards, otherwise we didn't see much nearby. I still recommend eating here for lunch or dinner if you don't need any other entertainment afterwards.

Spanakopita, saganaki, gyro, veggie gyro, and gigantes were all delicious. Everything is fresh-made here (including, we think, the mayo with which the house-made and brined frites were served). My only extremely minor complaint is that the gigantes tasted a bit like they were made with canned tomato sauce. Still one of the best meals I've had in 19 months of living in Amsterdam!

When we approached the host stand for information about getting seated at a table, the hostess was lovely. However, her colleague was extremely rude, and belittled us. When we asked how long the wait would be, the man made a comment sharing that this place "isn't like Disney World" and laughed to other staff members. We were extremely taken aback by this comment, and it made us uncomfortable. Then, a few minutes later, a different host brought us over to a table, within minutes. She was a great help! Food was good but after such a bad experience, I'm not likely to return.
