    Sumo
    Brooke L.

    Not so sure if any of the sumo was freshly fried, and the service was weak. All 4 sauces tasted exactly the same the only difference was color. I did only eat these items so no idea what the other stuff was like but I should warn it's not that good. Meh. Ambiance gets it the 3 star. It was nice seating and lots of it.

    Tasty vegan burgers in a fun atmosphere. The fries were also excellent. The pink bun is a little silly but the taste was good!

    Lovely place with delicious food and friendly staff. Place has nice seating and good vibe.Menu is awesome. Our appetite only allowed some but would certainly recommend this place for everyone. We tried Sumo platter which is good of all sharing items and they were very good with MVP being Flamboyant Shrimp and their burgers were out of this world.Just go have fun

    Vegan Burger and Fries
    Musa S.

    This place is awesome! Everything is vegan that you can eat, and would never know it. Just order your food from your table, and they bring it to you. If you don't like hip-hop, R&B, and/or pop music then that might be an issue for you. If it's not, then this is a 10 out of 10 for sure.

    The sweet potato fries
    Corey C.

    Unsure as to why the reviews for this place are not better...hands down best vegan food we have ever eaten, anywhere at anytime. With the "beyond meat" and "impossible burger" craze happing Stateside right now, it's fun to note these folks have been doing it up this way for a few years now like it's nothing. How do these guys do it? We had these sweet potato shawarma fries which tasted amazing, and split two sandwiches that were absolutely wonderful. Made us even question becoming vegans for a hot minute. Pictures can't quite capture the experience, so go and check it out for yourself. Yum.

    Heppi Ribs
    Ken L.

    Was in Amsterdam over the weekend and looking for new food options. Found this on Yelp and thought I'd give it a try. Menu had a good variety of items. I went with the Heppi Ribs and fries. Food was delivered in expected amount of time and was very good. The restaurant has both indoor and outdoor seating. It was a beautiful day, so the patio was full of people eating and drinking. I will definitely try this place again the next time I'm in town. Price was reasonable, so good value for money.

    Vegan fish sandwiches, vegan betterballs, vegan burger

    My family and I already already figuring out how we can visit the other locations of Vegan Junk Food Bar because this was hands down the best bar food I have ever had- Vegan or otherwise. And I'm not vegan and neither is my 16 y.o. son! IDK what kind of voodoo they are performing in the kitchen there, but The vegan fish tasted like fried fish and the chicken strips were extraordinary- I thought we'd hear them clucking. 10/5!!

    Overpriced food and crazy long wait. Food was mediocre at best. Great waffle Fries and sweet potato fries. But the plant based burger and plant based chicken-like patty were not great. Strange texture and flavor. For 4 of us at dinner it took about 1 hour to get carry out and was over €100 for a meal I would not ever order or eat again. Very disappointed

    Tipsy unicorn
    Ajereen C.

    If I could recommend any vegan restaurant to vegans and non-vegans, it would be Vegan Junk food bar. The service was good, the host and waitress were nice and very informative of the food and made great recommendations. VJB is known for their vegan burgers, but instead I got their sashimi. I got it mainly out of curiosity. The texture of the sashimi was very similar to real sashimi which is impressive. Wasn't the biggest fan of the sashimi, but my company had gotten other dishes which I had bites of which was good. The drinks were excellent and I highly advise trying their drinks. I got the tipsy unicorn which was vodka, blue curaçao liquor, lychee juice, blueberry purée, and lemon juice. Could barely taste the alcohol. Next time I'm back, I'll have to try their burgers.

    Chikn salad and original burger
    Avery K.

    Definitely worth eating at while in Amsterdam! Quick service and delicious food. My husband and I arrived and waited in a short line (great food typically has a wait). We ordered the chikn Caesar salad and the original burger. Both were delicious and reasonably priced. Food came out quick and hot especially factoring how busy they were, all employees we interacted with were helpful and friendly. If we lived in the area we could definitely eat here probably weekly. Thanks for The delicious vegan options! PS I encourage any one to eat here vegan or not, you won't know the difference from food you typically eat give it a try and enjoy knowing it's cruelty free!

    I was surprised by how dead this place was. I thought the food was delicious. The service was good to, but be sure you get their attention and call them over when you need something. I ordered the chickn salad and we shared the bitterballen. I would recommend getting the sampler, but if I went again I would get the falafel flavored only. They were awesome. I ordered their signature beer with the unicorn on it. Not my favorite, but it was ok. Didn't help that it wasn't ice cold. I would give this place another try so I can give them that extra star I know they can earn.

    I didn't expect a proper sit down restaurant but that's what this was. We got seated very fast since we were just a small party of two. The wait for bigger parties was a bit longer. I brought my boyfriend, who is not plant based, and he also found the food to be delicious. I've been waiting months to come here (I'm from California) and I can happily say that the food and service did not disappoint. I can't wait to come back later this year. Very good food

    Daddy Mc Chik'n
    Bridget K.

    Vegan Junk Food Bar's food was massive and so colorful! Everything was delicious. I enjoyed their Daddy Mc Chik'n, which really did taste like a fast food chicken sandwich. My dad LOVED the Pinky Bratwurst [censored]. It was seriously amazing with the two different kinds of mayo sauces. My brother loved the Royal Hulky, it totally tasted like authentic shawarma! The coconut curry bitterballs were flavorful and paired perfectly with the sweet chili sauce. And we absolutely loved the sweet potato fries with the pink garlic sauce. Definitely worth a visit!

The staff was charismatic and genuinely helpful with the menu, taking time to explain dishes and give recommendations without ever rushing me.

This delicious spot is off the beaten path of the more touristy spots in Amsterdam, located on a quiet side street. We absolutely loved our meal - with clear influences from french, asian flavors, and italian. We started with a delicious amuse bouche by the chef, followed by the "pate" and fresh bread. It was earthy and good; a solid start. Our main dishes were truly a treat! We split one of the gnocchi options - the tomato sauce was delectable; I truly could have licked the bowl - and the black mushroom ravioli - so much delicious umami flavor! We ended with the peanut butter brownie and, let me just say, I am UPSET that we decided to split one instead of ordering our own! The service was a delight - they were so kind, clearly wanting us to enjoy the experience!

Fast forward a few years and now I'm delighted to accompany them to vegan restaurants such as Meatless District in Amsterdam, NL. The food was exquisite as was the service. I'm now obsessed with watermelon sashimi. I prefer this vegan bitterballen to the traditional because I didn't like the texture of the meat inside. I feel the dutch really like pureed meat. The mushroom bitterballen was so delicious as was everything else. The braised artichoke was just ok. Nothing to write home about but nothing wrong with it. It's just that everything else was so unique including the desserts. Lovely ambiance in the restaurant. I give my experience a 4 overall for the artichoke and I must mention the bathroom. This is more of a Dutch thing than anything else. Gender neutral bathrooms are cool. We Americans don't see that a lot. The problem is the individual stall was up a flight of stairs and so small that I couldn't even sit on the toilet and then there was nothing to pull myself up to get out the position I had gotten myself into. It was awkward. This stall needs a bar or something to help those of us who are not as able as we used to be. I'd go eat here again to try more of their dishes.

Staff don't bother to find tables for you; they let customers figure things out among themselves. Alright. We eventually grabbed a table after 5-10 minutes, then had our order taken 10 minutes later. The food took a long time to come out: about 40 minutes (other than 1 appy that came out after 20). Good thing it was tasty. We got: -plantain fries (€6) -- tasty, especially with the sweet dipping sauce, but you get about 8 fries, so not great value. -okonomiyaki (€12.90) -- this was wonderful. So many lovely textures, flavours, and seasoned beautifully. This was the highlight of the meal for me. -vegan plate (€18.90) -- really nicely designed plate, with a base of brown rice, with a sort of Japanese slaw, vegan chicken katsu, tempura (apparently, though I didn't notice it), and stir fried veggies. Super tasty stuff. Not the biggest portion, but not bad either. My friends each got the crispy roti wrap (€14.90), which they loved, and the taste I had was great. Overall, great food, not the best dining experience. Perhaps my experience wasn't representative. I'd go back for the okonomiyaki alone.
