    Bitterballen
    Cristina G.

    Cut Throat is trendy AF and serving up brunch specialities all day. It's a barber shop connected to a pub, and just steps away from Dam Square and multiple trams. I found this spot on Yelp while planning the itinerary for our trip. Since I knew we'd be in this area on night, it became the perfect spot for a light dinner. I made reservations 2 weeks in advance, but we didn't need them. There were people drinking at tables but it wasn't overly crowded. When we walked in around 8pm, about an hour early for our reservation, we were seated immediately and told that the kitchen actually closes at 9pm, the time of our reservation (so good thing we got there early). We each ordered a beer and chatted with our server who actually happened to be from Brooklyn, NY and recognized my accent. Small world! We ordered the bitterballen, a Dutch specialty, to split as an app since we hadn't tried this yet, and the red velvet chicken & waffles to split. We weren't starving, just looking to try a couple of things to fuel up for some more roaming around. The bitterballen came out first and they were exactly what I expected. Delicious fried balls of a Dutch cream sauce mixed with flour, and dunked in a side of mustard. I really shouldn't be having dairy so I didn't have more than 2 of these which is fine. These bad boys were filling. Up next was the red velvet waffles with fried chicken - served with banana (ooooooh) and bacon, with a caramel sauce drizzled on top. Sweet and savory, decadent, and delicious. The weird thing is that when our waffle dish came out, we were informed that TECHNICALLY people are not allowed to split dishes here (weird) but I guess they let it go because it was late and we absolutely had no idea of this restaurant policy. I'm not sure if this is because the entrees are fairly cheap (our chicken and waffles were 13€), but I've never heard of that before. Maybe a European thing? I'm not sure, but we split many dishes on our trip and never had a problem. We also each had a beer, chosen by our waiter. Both were great recommendations. The amount of food we ordered was perfect too. We left full, but not rolling out the door either. If you're coming to grab a bite here, maybe come for actual brunch if you want to see the barber shop in action. If you're coming for dinner, make sure you don't come in past 8pm as the kitchen closes at 9pm.

    This was such a unique experience. The barber shop on one side and the restaurant on the other. Both are completely separated but the concept was amazing. I think this place would flourish in America. The food was amazing. The chef was amazing and the care and love for food could be tasted. The options were great and it was a nice selection. We really enjoyed our selves and if your coming to Amsterdam I recommend you try this place.

    Brunch, cocktails and a haircut!!

    Delicious food, fun vibe and great service. Loved this place! The huevos rancheros was perfect!

    The ambiance is amazing. The staff was amazing but my poached eggs were hard in the middle and my sausage was undercooked. By friends had the "Man Bun Burger" and it was amazing. They had the BEST sweet potato fries I have ever tasted. The condiments to go with were very well paired with the sweet spiciness of the fries and seasoning. Prices were decent as well.

    Hip brunch spot with vegan & non-vegan options! The menu is relatively limited but there are a lot of fun items! I got the acai bowl (a bit runny for my taste) and friend plantains (tasty, but oily). Not the cheapest option, especially considering the small portion sizes, but the food was good overall, the staff was very friendly, and the atmosphere was great. My friend got the Chicken & Waffles and loved it! Updating this review after visiting again: I got the vegan chicken & waffles and they were AMAZING. The "chicken" was made with sientan and was very spicy and flavorful with a great texture. The maple syrup and hot sauce on the side made the entire meal come together with sweet and spicy flavors. Highly recommend this dish!

    Possibly one the best brunches I've ever had. I'm pretty sure they have the best chicken I've ever had. Really cool spot, unreal food and really nice staff. A must visit

    The arched bricked ceilings above the new bar are gorgeous.

    So far so good! I just stopped by the new location for the grand opening but everything was done really beautifully. With the ached brick ceilings inside melting down into the bar and barbershop space it really just sets up a unique space. There is now a full bar inside which does really nice reasonably priced cocktails and quite an extensive beer selection, even having quite a few on tap. To add to this, the guys from Fraiche and Staring at Jacob are cooking up there blend of new American food. This is going to include their delicious tacos and of course the chicken and waffles. These were floating around during the opening and really added to the experience. The barber shop area is sort of sectioned off by if you glass windows. This is kind of fun if you're going to be there with some friends so they can see you get your cut while also enjoying a cocktail and/or snack. That room is full of mirrors with barber stations all facing at different angles which gives a sort of M.C. Escher affect to the whole place. On top of that it was really well lit up which I think is a good thing if someone is going to have a blade near your throat. I think this new space is going to do really well.

    Blaze!! What a GuY!! Chur bro!!!! We had a great time in your place while visiting for just 6 hours. We jumped off the train in a snow storm .. where I almost got run over by the #10Train!!

It was hardout.Crazy snow storm, -6c It took Planes , Trains and Automobiles to get to somewhere great, 1st stop in our random excursion through Amsterdam! We were buggerd and searching for a feed. I opened my trusty Yelp app and found the place we were craving for brekkie! I saw the photos of Eggs Benny and had to try!! It's our favorite!! We've had Benny's almost every place in San Francisco and down the coast!! Cricky dick! you also do close ass shaves and hair cuts with precise barbers in the room nextdoor while we are we watched these bloaks, drinking our spicy Bloody Mary's and loving every bite! Think Dre was playing in the background if I can remember!! I'm bias...West Coast | Bay Area is f@$%#*ng AmaZing!! Pretty much All of It, but appreciate your mash-Up of random ShiT happening All @ the same Time, we enjoyed the experience! The hen fruit was ooowwwweeeyyy gooooeeeyyyy as it should be!!! Corker hollandaise sauce; compliments to the chef! Thank you for the shots too, Give/Take=% ...this is how we live!! It was choice & one of our best parts of visiting that sweet-as!!

He said water, so I assumed it was it was tinted from the lighting. When I took a sip it was a flavored water. I asked if it was gluten-free and he was very rude in his response. Basically was like um yea it just has spices in it. Spices may not be gluten free and could be of concern for a celiac. I asked him if any drinks were gluten free and he said all but 2. I wasn't confident that the drinks would be made separately from the non- gluten drinks so I opted not to get one. My friend got the bees knees and said it was really tasty. The server did come back and switch my water to regular at the end but he should have been upfront with what he gave to prevent any exposure to peoples allergies.

The space is really cool, with some neat lit-up signs behind the bar and antique paintings on the ceiling. I tried a few cocktails and they were all tasty. These included the Flying Dutchmen -- their signature cocktail -- and the Umami Margarita. I was a bit hesitant about the Dutchmen because it was with gin and orange, but I liked it a lot. The margarita was unusual with some mushroom dust on the rim. Our server was very friendly and helpful.

Carlota who answered the doorbell, was able to accommodate us at the bar (our preferred seating anyway). She took our coats, placed them in the coat closet up front and led us inside. Once seated, we were given gorgeous ruby red complimentary aperitif (hibiscus, honey, ginger). The drink menu is interesting, based on the concept of growing up, with more basic tastes to start and more mature complex tastes later on in life. (The drinks are more complex the later in the menu). I ordered the Awake at Last, and my husband ordered the Ruby Stone. Mine was sweet and coffee flavored and his was more tart and sour cherry flavored. When I tried his drink, I immediately felt nostalgic because it reminded me of umeboshi (pickled plum in Japanese food), so we ended up trading drinks. Both were great for supping. Sitting at the bar was fun, watching the bartender at his work. He was silent, focused, skilled, professional. So glad we checked it out! I didn't post pictures of the entrance or inside because I'll leave it to you to discover! (The fun of a speakeasy).

    My husband and I were in Zürich before coming to Amsterdam and met a friend who is from Amsterdam…read more He recommended Pulitzer's Bar- so we immediately called and made a reservation. We were going on a boat tour that afternoon, to see all the light installations, so we made sure the timing was right to get to Pulitzer's on time! We had a 6:00 reservation, and got there promptly and found the door that we were to enter. The door was locked, but there was a sign that said 'please wait, someone will be with you soon'. Our wait was very short, and someone promptly came, greeted us and took us to our seats at the bar. Because a reservation, I believe is required, (not 200% about that), we were wondering if it would be a bit stuffy. It was not at all, everyone that we spoke to was very friendly, and great service at the bar. There were other couch settings and a few different set ups, but as usual, we love the bar. Our drinks were fabulous and we tried three of their menu items- only have appetizers, but they were very good. In talking to my sister and her husband, after we returned home, who had just been to Amsterdam, I realized that they stayed at the Pulitzer hotel, which we did not know when we were there. They loved the hotel - so I can give a recommendation for that as well. They said all the rooms are different and they really loved their room. I think everyone would really enjoy a stay at the Pulitzer hotel and definitely get a reservation to Pulitzer's bar- you won't be disappointed.

He was skilled as a bartender, being able to mix fabulous cocktails and also hold an interesting conversation at the same time.
