While the location and building are in fact gorgeous, I was slightly disappointed with the interior. I had the tartar and my friend a pork sandwich. Both were good enough. However they took an surprisingly long time to arrive. Not in a rush on a Saturday afternoon, so not a real issue. The service was otherwise friendly. Maybe it is unfair that the unparalleled de Kas is next door and therefor evokes comparisons, but I mean, de Kas is next door. In general, the menu wasn't too inspired. But all in all, a nice lunch in a nice place for an average price. So yeah. 3 stars.

I was here last night after a nice happy hour drink at GlouGlou in De Pijp. My sweet guy and I wanted to try a new place so we opted for this restaurant. So glad we did! Service is unreal - although, I don't believe it's always as good as last night. There was a wine freelancer on the floor who took care of my guy and I. He was totally unlike any other waiter/server/wine freelancer (what!). Truly amazing service. We went for 4 courses - all of which were yummy. The artichoke dish was the weakest, however. It didn't give either of us any sort of 'wow' but 3 out of 4 is good, isn't it? And, the wine pairing? Well...perfect, really. The building is gorgeous, the views of the park are so beautiful, the seating is comfortable. Overall, a total win. Really. I can't wait to come here for a Sunday brunch, sit outside and look at the garden and just soak in the day. That will happen. Soon. Enjoy!

Sadly this meant a Dutch pub quiz with many questions about Dutch politics, Dutch vocabulary and Dutch culture, that the quiz master could translate for our table upon request, so this wasn't a huge success.

There were a number of luncheon options available including several types of quiche, lasagna, salads, and rice bowls. I opted for a mushroom quiche which was served with a plentiful salad of quinoa, tomatoes and herbs. Sweetie got the lasagna and it was quite nice - and a very ample serving. I saw notes that the chocolate tart was not to be missed here, and they were certainly right! So rich and dense and delicious with some whipped cream and fresh strawberries. I recommended it to some people traveling in our group and a few days later they were singing the praises of that chocolate tart as well. All in all a very homey and pleasant place to grab an unpretentious bite in Amsterdam. It made me feel like dining at a family buffet, and the quiet was appreciated in the midst of this busy city.
