It was the second time I was there. My friend and I enjoyed the atmostphere of the restaurant. The food I ordered, Risotto geconfijte fazantenbout, was super delicious. The staff were very friendly and offered us suggestions for the interesting places nearby to go after dinner. Absolute legend of Amsterdam, beautiful interiors and fabulous food. If you are in luck, at the entrance you will be hosted by Bram - and this will set up your evening on the best route. Ask him for wine pairing - he will have the best picks! Oysters, tuna, main course - everything is exceptional. I love that this was my selection for a special evening. I brought my parents here for dinner and we absolutely loved it. The place has such a warm, elegant atmosphere. The Art Nouveau interior and the view over the canals make it feel really special. The food was fantastic, especially the meat dishes, the entrecote and the tournedos Rossini were outstanding. The only thing I wasn’t crazy about was the terrine, I usually prefer it a bit creamier, but everything else was just perfect. Such a beautiful spot for a relaxed and memorable dinner in Amsterdam!

I had such a lovely experience while celebrating my husband’s birthday. All my requests were taken care of and everyone who attended the table were very sweet. They went above and beyond to make the dinner special. The food was some of the best i have had in a long time and also to mention is the amazing set up by the canals. I will surely be coming back.

Best dinner we have had in Amsterdam so far. Great atmosphere, even better if you manage to sit outside. Good service too. The food really stands out from the other places in the area, everything we ate was delicious (the ravioli were a bit salty, though, but you could still see they were fresh and carefully prepared). They were also very accommodating of my food intolerance. Would recommend.
