    Palate cleanser with cod, soup (cucumber, tomato, with jalapeños oil), cheese bread pieces
    Urszula P.

    I was lucky to learn about this place from a local foodie on a flight. I had a reservation but I didn't realize it was a tasting menu. We decided on the "full monty" (9 course tasting menu) and it is worth it. The staff is very attentive and knows every detail of every dish. They will customize the menu based on your desires and allergies. + Palate cleanser with cod, soup (cucumber, tomato, with jalapeños oil), cheese bread pieces 1)Herring with green tomato, radish, cream 2)Smoked ox heart with Tatar 3)Consume tomato with bacon in juniper 4)mussels with mustard cream & shallot/onion // mom: broccoli with cream and cucumber 5 chimmichurri with carrot (whole & diced) & onion 6 Smoked salmon on salmon filet with cream, radishes, spinach 7 Lamb with 24hrs pickled lemon artichoke hearts and sheeps yogurt 8 Sweet breads with sweet bread cream, caramelized onion, + pre-dessert: Peach, sorbet, goat cheese 9 panacotta with cherries// cheese plate with local syrup

    By far one of my favorite restaurants in Amsterdam. Not only were the prices super reasonable but the quality of food was perfection. Chef loves to play with fermented foods so it was interesting to see what we get each course (not sour at all). Our waitress was super nice and explained the courses. It's a set menu! So you cant choose what you want, everything comes the same depending if you want the 3, 4, or 5 course meal.

    Prix fixe lunch for 2. We sat outside since it was a nice day, and I think that was the problem! The service was extremely slow and it seemed like they had forgotten about us. The wait time between courses was way too long. The amuse bouche was good, the salad was pretty basic, the lamb was decent, and fish was simple yet delicious. The best part were the desserts! Overall an average experience and I found this place to be overhyped and the subpar service dampened the full Michelin-star experience.

    Loved this restaurant! We came for lunch without a reservation and they were still able to accommodate us. We had the 3-course lunch tasting and it was quite lovely. Good service on a beautiful day in Amsterdam. We were in a rush to head to the airport, so they were able to speed up the service for us so we could finish up in just over one hour. I recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Amsterdam.

    Picked this place to be my lunch adventure. The restaurant offers one-hour lunch service, and you can make a reservation online. The issue for me was that they could not make it for one person, so I selected two guests and added in notes that it is for one. My lunch was a four-course surprise menu. I am not a fan of the idea; I enjoy to know what I am going to be served even if I can not make a selection. First, two courses were delightful, but my main course was Mexican inspired steak covered in some Mexican sauce. The only cuisine I don't care for I got it here served as my lunch. I was intrigued in the beginning, but after the main course, I felt disappointed. I have been at the sister restaurant Guts & Glory, but this season they also gave Central American menu. I told waitress I don't care for the steak (after giving it a fair chance) I was ready to leave, but I was served substitute course - pork belly in hoisin sauce. The desert was fantastic! Chocolate ice cream with the beetroot foam and the raspberry jam. After all, this is a good dining experience and if you are nearby to check it out, but make sure you list everything you do and do not like before committing to the surprise menu here Service was polite and timely.

    Ribeye steak - my favorite course
    Alan L.

    Excellent meal! We had the five course dinner at a table along the canal. Our server asked us what foods we didn't like and and one plate was adjusted accordingly. Every plate was well thought out and delicious. It is difficult to say, but the ribeye steak was probably my favorite. I look forward to eating here again.

    Tofu Lettuce cup :/ ....not what I expect to eat at a highly regarded French restaurant
    Rebecca C.

    Service was really good. Food was not bad, but for me was basic for being so highly recommend as fine dining.... the lamb was over cooked and didn't pair nicely maybe we went on the wrong day :(

    Broad, delicious, meticulously executed 7 course for €70 tasting menu. Well done and great value.
    Jason H.

    What a find. I love this restaurant. Great value. Great food. Great beer and very reasonably priced wines by the glass from Italy and beyond. In fact, their tasting menu is exceptionally good. The 7 course for 70 Euro pp is the best we have had in Amsterdam thus far. Thanks Breda. We will be back.

    My two friends and I were able to snag a last min reservation at the bar on a Friday night and boy am I glad it worked out. Conceptually, Breda presents you with a menu that has a list of items on it but, no dishes. You're basically at the liberty of the kitchen, what's seasonal and it's amazing. You'll see by my photos below that the food presentation is really beautiful and well thought out. There were seven courses in total and my absolute favorite was the guinea fowl. What the heck is guinea fowl!? I'll tell you it's amazing and eats like a chicken/duck hybrid. Brilliant. I also really enjoyed the scallop dish and "first potatoes of the season." The meal was spaced out perfectly and progressed nicely so that you never felt too full. Great service, great wine list. Make a reservation because we got really lucky.

    No a la carte menu's. But you get to choose how many courses you want of their own tasting menu. We've read some really good reviews about Breda, but unfortunately the week we went did slightly disappoint. We took the medium menu which I believe was 5 courses for 64.50 euro's per person. The taste in most of the dishes had the same sauce base and after sometime frankly I was just sick of the same flavours. I guess using the same sauce base is cost efficient. The only thing that I wasn't sick of was their onion amuses. Unfortunately, the food was just ok. If I am very honest I just felt nauseous after the long dine and wine. And I wasn't the only one. Service was okay, the host seemed a bit lost at times. But the waiters did a fine job. Perhaps better luck next time?

    Nice place, great food and good service! We had the 5 menu corse plus wine selection and was wonderful, tasty, and surprisingly all the time.

    See all

We were able to get seated right on the window area. We chose menu 5, which was just enough for two people. Everything was delicious! Their pea soup is out of this world. Don't know why as it is a simple dish but wow! I also love their herring. It was so delicious that I wanted seconds. It paired so well with their onions and mustard. And their bitterballen was just enough bite. Creamy and crispy! We also got a combination of the hutspot. They were all delicious! Although for me the meatball was just a tad bit salty but it is probably just me! Everything else was spot on. I love their dessert at the end. It was a great way to end the night. Our server and their staff were all amazing! Very friendly and welcoming. Yes it is a tourist spot but totally worth it.

We did not have one but they were happy to seat the 2 of us and invited us to switch tables once another couple left (they were checking out). Small space, can accommodate groups of 2-4, cozy atmosphere, lots of the traditional blue and white ceramics on the wall (dishes and tiles). Traditional Dutch cuisine: we ordered the Boerenkoolstamppot with smoked sausage and Zuurkoolstamppot with smoked sausage and a slice of apple pie to share for dessert. The food arrived piping hot in about 20 minutes. It was sooo delicious--the tasty juicy sausage pairs perfectly the mashed potatoes with either sauerkraut or kale. The apple pie was also tasty--larger chunks of apple and more spices less sugar than American apple pie from what I can tell. Perfect with whipped cream. A must visit if you're in Amsterdam and want to try traditional fare. Highly recommended!

What?? - rock hard bread I wouldn't feed a dog and plastic container butter - lackluster oysters - steak frites came out just about raw (1.5 hours after ordering). Had to send back. Came back with no sauce on top, no mayo for fries - red bass decent - server/waiter said it "wasn't his fault" and "the system didn't take our order". No empathy, no anything. - the most appalling part. Offered us a free drink or a coffee. WHAT?? Didn't comp the martinis, didn't comp the awful steak frites, or anything. Sorry excuse for a restaurant that, if based on service and food, should be out of business. Won't be back. Go to brut de mer instead. No stars

It's high-energy, crowded (in a fun way), and the people-watching is 10/10. It feels like a lively mix of Paris and New York in the heart of the canals. Great for a group lunch. Service is professional and fast-paced to keep up with the crowd. The food (like the Steak Frites) is consistently solid, but you are definitely here for the energetic atmosphere and the perfect location. A great 4-star spot if you want to soak in the fashionable Amsterdam.

They do make up for it with their personalities. The restaurant itself is small and typically can hold groups of 2 to 5. The menu is small, but all the dishes are high quality. 1.

Goat cheese terrine - very nice soft goat cheese mixed with onions as well as berry and veggies. Only wish there was more bread. 4. Sea bream - very nicely done with a fresh taste of the meat and a crispy skin. Pairs well with its sauce and tomatoes. 5. Ravioli - nicely done al dente with a herby sauce and packed ravioli 6.
