    Moeders Gehaktballen
    Emma J.

    We went here for dinner on a Tuesday night around 7pm and the restaurant was entirely full. We ordered the Pinot rosé and Bavaria and then the Kabeljaue stampot, moeders gehaktballen, which were hearty and well portioned dinners. Everything was very tasty, however I did unfortunately get food poisoning and believe it was related to the fish.

    Pumpkin soup
    Maria S.

    I went here as part of a tour with about 25 folks. We had a prix fixe menu. I started with a pumpkin soup. It was just ok. The bread was excellent though. Then came a hearty and delicious cod with spinach mashed potatoes. The serving was pretty big. I could only eat half. My tour guide suggested I take it to go. She said the staff at our hotel is nice and can heat the leftovers for me. Then came the apple pie. It's served with whipped cream. I would have preferred ice cream. I wasn't crazy about the apple pie. You have to go down some really steep steps to go to the toilets. Not good for physically challenged folks!

    Delicious Authentic Dutch Food!! One place to try all the dutch food in Amsterdam. Great Historical location!!

    Fish and chips
    Lisa G.

    We enjoyed a very delicious meal here. We had the fish and chips, the green salad, and the Caesar salad. The fish and chips were very light and crispy, and the toppings on the salad were fresh and nicely cooked/seasoned. The only complaint would be that it was hard to get our waitresses attention to get more water and the bill.

    If you want to sample a bunch of Dutch specialties, this is a great place for that. Additionally, the location is perfect with lots of outdoor seating situated next to the canals. So lots of people watching and boat watching. Bitterballen: Love those crunchy little balls of deliciousness. They're kinda like bite sized versions of the big croquettes. Love the almost gravy like flowing center mixed with bits of meat. Despite the moisture, the exterior is perfectly crunchy. Together, they're a wonderful pairing of textures. Hollandse Erwtsensoep: Also known as Snert, which might not sound as fancy. Hearty pea soup which is perfect when there's a little chill in the air. Very green with a few odd bits of smoked sausage mixed in. I also liked the side of hearty bread and ham, a good complement to the soup. Lekkerbekjes: While I realize this is a Dutch specialty, it kinda tasted like regular old fish & chips. Still tasty since the fish was flaky and meaty while the coating had a good crunch. Kabeljauw Stamppot: Much more sophisticated than a meatballs or smoked sausage, which are often served with stamppot. The menu said the cod was fried, but it looked nothing like the lekkerbekjes. It wasn't breaded, but it did had browned edges. I think it was better this way as opposed to fried. And that rich butter sauce was perfect on the fish and perfect on the mashed potatoes.

    The waiter who served us was one of the nicest humans we have ever met. He was friendly he knew we were tourists and still made sure we felt welcomed and had many conversations with us. He checked in frequently to ensure we were happy and enjoying their recipes. He made this our most happy lunch on vacation. The cafe itself is warm and cozy with nice booths and cuddly corners. The bathroom is downstairs. The kitchen is really fun because the food comes from the kitchen on a little food elevator which was fun to see! The pasta tasted like grandmas pasta. It was good that just makes your heart happy and your belly full. The bitterballen I have never tried before and was pleasantly surprised. It was very savory with a nice mustard dipping sauce. They were hot and crispy and I would eat them again!

    Nice outdoor cafe above the canal bridge with an inside restaurant on the corner. Menu was not too big, but they have a good variety of breakfast, lunch, and shareable snack options. We ordered drinks and some tasty Veal bitterballens, which were served hot and crunchy on the outside. Service was friendly and attentive. I had a lovely time watching the busy people around the streets while having a perfect snack outside.

    This restaurant is right around the corner from the Waterlooplein market. It was very busy when we went and the tables were close together so expect to sit right next to someone with your legs almost touching. There is a front area and back area. It was busy as I said so it took awhile for our server to get to us and don't expect them to check in on you often like you are used to for American service. They pretty much serve you your food and that's it. I had the lentil soup which was ok but I did add a little salt and pepper. Come with a little piece of bacon and bread in the side as you can see I. The photo. Also had the kaasouffle which was good and I liked that it was smaller pieces and also had the bitter lemon which comes in a bottle. If you order the iced tea then that comes in a bottle also.

    I liked this place because the location was great and it was fast! We only stopped for a drink and some cheese sticks but they came out fast and perfect! Our waitress and waiter were really nice and made sure we were satisfied! We didn't see inside but they have a big outside seating area. The prices are great for the area it's in

    Bread and cheese appetizer
    Lewis H.

    Noticed the sign "authentic " Dutch Bistro while walking to our hotel, in the center of Amsterdam. We came back for dinner. Ordered a cheese and bread plate as an appetizer, some excellent tasting cheese. For a main course Schnitzel, it comes with a salad and fries. Additionally meatballs with potatoes and veggies. Both meals were excellent and flavorful. The staff were super friendly and speak great English. Highly recommended eating here

    Meatballs and potatoes and gravy.

    Was looking for some traditional Dutch food. Stopped here for lunch. Had the meatballs and potatoes. It was excellent!

    Rembrandt van Rijn owned a house nearby from 1639 to 1656. The Rembrandt Museum, cafés & entertainment venues opened around the square.

    Very touristic in a bad sense of the word - ugly, loud, no atmosphere, good for a drinking trip, nothing more.

Welcome to Haven Van Texel. Right at the north end of the red light district. A colleague of mine said she goes here for traditional Dutch cuisine, so let's get to the food shall we. Of course we're going to snag an order of the Croquettes. Nice bite size potato mash balls with meat in it. These ones are nice and neat with a perfect delicate crunch. Great balance of potato to meat ratio. 8.2/10 For my main event, the Stamppot. This is a rotating dish that's usually different every time. Whatever protein that's available in the market with seasonal vegetables in the mash. It's like a lovely surprise every time I visit. Today we have pork. Perfectly seasoned, the meat was fall off the bone and the mash was a delightful side. 8.7/10 The place is really nice, the tables outside do go fast during busy hours. The staff was nice enough to let us sit by at the bar so we can enjoy some drinks while we wait. I would definitely smash here again.

My friend is the…read moreone that discovered this restaurant and made the reservations ahead of time, and from the pictures, it looked like a fun place to eat. I was excited. From research, it seems as though Amsterdam is known for having some good Indonesian food, so that was something we made a priority of trying while we were there. Though somewhat pricey, the entertainment, decor, and food here definitely exceeded our expectations. To eat, we had already decided to order the rijsttafel (rice table), which is essentially a variety of small Indonesian dishes. In total, I believe there were about 15 that we were comfortably able to share and enjoy. In addition, we ordered a few street food appetizers, which included the black angus tartare, tacos, and albacore tuna tartare. Overall, I thought the food was pretty good. I particularly enjoyed the street food appetizers, which were presented very uniquely. While I'm glad we tried the rijsttafel for the authentic experience, there were only a few dishes from it that I really enjoyed. Still, I'd recommend ordering it for the experience. It was pretty cool to try so many Indonesian specialties in one meal. If looking for a fun restaurant to dine at in central Amsterdam, Ron Gastrobar is an option you should heavily consider. The ambiance and atmosphere are unrivaled, and you are bound to have a great time. The live performances are very enjoyable. Service was also very accommodating and friendly, and the drinks were superb. Go ahead and check this place out!

We were all waiting for an elevator to the top floor, which was the restaurant. When we got to the top, no one was there but we eventually found someone to show us our table. The sun was a bit bright because it is already summer but it was a beautiful view as it set. We took every recommendation our waiter gave. We started with cocktails from the small menu and tuna tartar and oysters (with apple, green pepper and ginger dressing). I never eat oysters but I loved these. When it was time for the main food, I told our waiter we were interested in the rijstafel. He recommended that we get rijstafel for four and supplement it with the sea bass. Upon further inspection of the menu, we did that, plus the chicken sate, beef sate and wagyu sate. Everything was amazing. There are a couple of entertainment pieces that come with the meal. Mr. Spicy comes around in a red dinner jacket and asks if you want mild, medium or spicy sauce with your meal. We wanted to try one of each. Later on, Mr. Downtown with the cat head came by for a photo. He never put down his glass. In all, the meal was delicious and the cocktails were unique. I look forward to the next experience here.
