Though she made reservations for a place by the window, somehow the info got "lost in translation". Renè, the half Czech half Dutch waiter was willing to ask the guests if they would mind moving but we stopped him. The food was delicious, he prepared three courses of different dishes, was insanely kind, knowledgeable and attentive. When all guests left, he let us stay almost 30 minutes longer so we could enjoy the desserts. It is not a fancy place but if you appreciate authentic place and delicious food, you'll have a nice experience!

It's a beautiful interior, wide open and lots of tables and light. It's very "westernized" with a lot of English signage, which I guess is for the American tourists.

This one seemed less busy compared to the others. We ordered the sumo burger, chickn burger, onion rings and truffle fries. They were out of the pink aioli so I opted for the garlic sauce. It's a bright space that makes eating vegan food fun and easy! The only downfall was that it took a long time for us to get our food, almost 40 mins, and the restaurant wasn't even at max capacity. Something about their system messing up and there were a bunch of deliverers coming to pick up food. Pretty much everyone was waiting. They should definitely give priority to guests dining in. The worker didn't apologize for the long wait. Good thing we didn't come too hungry... Bedsides the wait, the food was tasty. My chickn burger was crunchy and a great alternative to meat. I'd come back when I'm in Amsterdam. Wish there was a spot like this in the states.

I shared a few slices with family and they also loved it. They were surprised it tasted so good and had no gluten or egg in it. I am normally apprehensive when it comes to buying gluten-free or vegan products because the ingredients always happen to have some soy ingredients in it, which is so bad for you..... However I was delighted that I could indulge in some dessert here. Also make sure to try their Algerian soup, it is wonderful and fitting for the cold weather!

My husband ordered the Soto Ayam Indonesian soup with chicken and I ordered the spring special of Beef bulgogi Asian fusion bowl with pickles and ginger. His soup was flavorful, not particularly spicy. He savored every sip and bite. My rice bowl was very tasty and had great textures from the crunchy pickles to the tender beef. Highly recommend!

A protegee of Michelin 3* De Librije in Zwolle and 3* Amber in Hong Kong Chef Sidney Schutte's food…read moreat Spectrum is appropriately gorgeous, but what proves most compelling is his ability to brighten up plates with unexpected twist that polarize often diners both experienced and novice. Located on the Waldorf Astoria -1 floor with garden views, Manager Cas Kratz and team warm in a professional manner befitting the address, guests are led from the hotel doors to an elegant room that is well-spaced with subdued lighting and a pop of color from the large floral arrangement at the center. Embracing Dutch heritage with an eye abroad, summer yielding most of the menu from nearby, the 18h00 seating finds Spectrum quiet as diners are presented an extensive Wine list from which Dry Riesling pairs well to opening bites such as a dried Yolk "cup" supporting Potatoes and Roe. Six proper courses flanked by Mignardises and Canapes, plus a bottle of Tulip Syrup to take home, fried Fish proceeds delicate Mochi with Crab topped in Caviar and the first of two Breads plus two styles of Butter. Served at a guest-appropriate pace, no long lulls with staff checking in regularly, Mushrooms take center stage in an otherwise vegetal composition brightened by Cherries followed by Strawberry-glazed Skate with a touch of heat. Not afraid to venture abroad for inspiration, Mullet Fish alongside Chanterelles and Sea Grapes darting across the tongue with tangy Tamarillo, Schutte's Langoustine then builds from tail to head with Chipotles and Chocolate to thrilling effect. Captivated by the Caramelized Goat Butter, enough so that a loaf of Sourdough disappeared quickly, Chef's time in Hong Kong undoubtedly inspired crispy-skin Duck intended to be eaten bite and sip with an accompanying cup of Consomme. Choosing Truffles and Cabbage over Rhubarb with Dill for Dessert, both seemingly a little forced and the former lacking much of the elegance seen across the rest of Spectrum's plates, guests are next asked to play a guessing-game with Chocolates inspired by preceding courses before concluding with Sticky Rice and Licorice bites.

Ended our Amsterdam trip with a dining experience at the two-star Michelin restaurant Spectrum,…read morelocated inside the gorgeous hotel. Their hospitality and attention to detail were definitely top-notch in the industry. We ordered both the regular and vegetarian tasting menus without any hesitation to maximize the experience. We also got the wine pairing, and they have one glass for each individual dish, so we drank a lot... The entire experience was longer than I expected, taking over 4.5 hours. We felt it was a little too long, but it's probably part of European culture, allowing us to fully enjoy it without rush. Each dish was beautifully presented and well-paired with the wine. We could tell the chef and the team put a lot of effort into designing the courses, especially the last course, house-made chocolate. The flavors were reflective of some other courses from the menu. Incredible! My top favorites of the night were: Sorrel: basil, rhubarb, fennel, wheat grass. Featured on the cover photo, it was the first time this dish debuted on the menu. We absolutely loved its unique play on ingredients and refreshing flavor as part of the dessert course. Duck: eggplant, tulip bulb pomegranate, black olive. One of their signature dishes on the menu, and definitely worth the popularity. The duck was tender and well-roasted. Beetroot: shallot, kohlrabi, magnolia, avocado. Personally not a fan of beets, but this one completely changed my opinion. The beet was cooked on charcoal to add a smoky flavor and reduce its earthiness. Basque cheesecake: house honey, black truffle. They did table side service for cutting the cake and explaining the baking process behind it. They did table-side service for cutting the cake and explaining the creation behind it. The cheesecake's texture was not as dense as many others, similar to a silky airy egg tart.
