    The ugly with chicken and a side of sweet potato fries
    Ciara D.

    On my visit to Amsterdam, we went to Foodhallen since it's a food hall with various types of food to cater to all of our tastes. After walking around, we all settled on The Butcher. You can see them cooking the food through the glass and the line was fairly long, so we knew this place had to be pretty good. There are all kinds of burgers and other sandwiches on the menu and they all sounded delish! I wound up ordering the ugly with chicken and a side of sweet potato fries. The food was reasonably priced and the wait wasn't unbearably long. We walked around trying to find seating while waiting for our food to come up, but the place was packed, so we had no luck. Once we all got our food, we found a couple of bar stools at this counter in the back corner and ate. Y'all. The ugly with chicken was soooooo good!! The chicken was seasoned and tender, the sauce was sweet and slightly spicy, the wrapped was grilled to perfection....uhh, amazing! And the sweet potato fries were some of the best I've ever had! Everything was yummy! Next time I'm in Amsterdam, I'll have to find my way back to The Butcher! I really enjoyed it! Also, pro tip: none of the stalls sell beverages. There's a big bar in the middle and a beer stall nearby where you have to get all your beverages - alcoholic and non-alcoholic.

    The burgers here are awesome. Very big and super tasty. (Luckily my sister ordered, so I didn't have to go through the process of getting the food. I heard the folks were pretty rude and easily angered). Go for the food, though. Ignore the rest.

    Fun atmosphere, simple options, tasty fries, typical burger. The ambience of the Foodhallen is great, and is a nice place to enjoy a simple burger. The meat was good, but I was a bigger fan of the fries!

    The patty was pretty good. The tomato was not so great. Good bun. Didn't live up to the hype.

    Mijn vrouw koos voor de klassieke hamburger bij The Butcher, een van de opvallende plekken in de Foodhallen.

    We were walking around doing some last minute shopping when we stumbled on Lombardo's. Now normally…read moreI wouldn't go for burgers when in Amsterdam, but I've been to Amsterdam enough times and hit all my spots at this point so why not try something new? Ordered the Truffle Wagyu Burger, which caught my eye when I was looking at the menu outside the restaurant. This did NOT disappoint at all. You can tell when a burger is made with some really good meat quality. This was readily apparent here because they were not afraid to cook this medium rare. It really doesn't get better than this! Staff were very friendly here! Even reposted my Instagram stories very quickly! One of my favorite things to do in Amsterdam is to walk around and find a great place to eat. Add another one to that list!

    There is almost *no* room to sit inside comfortably. Just a handful of bar stools around the sides,…read moreyou'll be cramped uncomfortably next to your neighbors. Busy lunch hours seemed to be dropping off around 13:30, about when I was there. It's possible there's an upstairs, but it was roped off on my visit. I decided to go with a unique combination, an unconventional choice, with the "Silence of the Lambs" burger, a patty made out of lamb, topped with goats cheese and sautéed onion. There was just one guy manning the register, and one lady cooking in the back. The first bite was divine, but towards the end I found it to mellow out to a rather neutral impression. I'd like to have tried a beef burger, and was contemplating the Dragon, but when in Ams. Worth a try, if convenient to do so.

    Anyone who has been to Amsterdam knows that every other restaurant offers a burger. However, this…read morehas to be the first restaurant in my travels of the world that offers BAKED wings. Im typically disappointed by restaurant wings and Im left wanting mine from home but you will not regret ordering wings from here. If you love spicy go with the spicy option and order with a side of Cole slaw. It makes the perfect pair. The flavor of the wings is an asian bbq style and the Cole slaw is sweet and original tasting. It made this southern American think that we have been doing this recipe wrong for years! My boyfriend and friend ordered burgers and both were dripping with juice and cooked to perfection. They're HUGE so if you order fries, Id recommend just one to share for the table. Also, they make home made chocolate milkshakes and i have never in my life had a chocolate milkshake more delicious than theirs. I finished it within minutes and wished I could have another one. Its without a doubt a MUST HAVE. They currently do not have a cocktail list but with this type of food I can do without. This place is a great setting for a group of friends or even a date. The decoration and service was beautiful and amazing. If you're in the neighborhood, don't make the mistake of not popping in.

    This is working it on all levels. Score one for effort and experience…read more You can tell they are really putting effort in to every detail and it is not a wasted endeavor. Possibly the best milk shake in the city. And a friendly staff to top it off makes it a no brained to return. No booze. Which is not so bad, but if they care as much about the food as they do- I am interested in what beers or cocktails they would choose to offer. Affordable. Fun. Tasty. Easy choice in an over crowded burger market.
