The ladies manning this fries-in-a-cone franchise location seemed apathetic, so while the fries did…read morecome out piping hot, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and covered in tasty mayonnaise, their customer service left much to be desired. Two other orders were placed ahead of ours, so they made one batch of fries to satisfy three orders. However, since we ordered last, we got whatever remained in the batch, which didn't fill up our cone to the brim like the previous two orders. My mom and I ordered the medium-sized cone, which was plenty for the two of us to share. I don't recall exactly how much we paid, but it was somewhere around 4€, including the additional fee for mayonnaise. It was the perfect form of sustenance for us at the time since we were walking from Museum Speelklok to Centraal Museum and wanted to avoid having to sit down for hours for lunch just to hold us over till dinner. The verdict: This place would score higher in my book if the employees were less blasé about everything around them. Otherwise, the fries are quite good.

The staff was friendly and quick to prepare the food. I hope they keep expanding.

It's conveniently located right next to the Neude - grabbing late night food has never been easier. The beautiful specimen of the falafelbroodje is only €4.

You can usually find me running up for seconds on toppings.

I never saw these types of "penny diners" or whatever they were called in America. Maybe in New York City, but they don't really makes sense in non-densely populated areas, but they work great here, where the climate allows the doors to be opened most of the time, so easily accessible from the sidewalk. The workers are very friendly and accessible. It's well lighted, bright inside. I don't eat this type of food a lot but when I walk by, I certainly wish I that I did (and can)! Their croquettes are delicious. But don't burn your mouth....they are hot!, they are supposed to be hot! But it's not fun to rip the skin off of your lip when on vacation! I couldn't imagine living above this place, I'd be as big as a house, eating there all the time.

It's not hard to find the place just follow the minarets because it's on the ground floor of the new beautiful 'Ulu Mosque.' The restaurant is big and very clean... It was very late when I visited the place but it was very crowded so I think it's a busy place (thumb up:)).. I've visited this place only once because I heard their 'Döner' is one the best... Well it was good but certainly not one of the best.. They sell more than only 'Döner' but I can't say anything about it because I only had a wrap and it was good but I didn't have the WOW-effect.. They sell Turkish dishes en desserts so need to visit it a few more times to have a more accurate opinion hehe... Ow and one more important issue they sell HALAL meat:D...

After months of anticipation I one day found myself across the street at Café Ledig erf (review will follow, not a fan) with classmates as a little goodbye "thing" and then suddenly saw it: Meneer Smakers Ledig Erf! It's here! It's open! I immediately texted le boyfriend about having burgers as an early dinner, but he had plans and luckily my two besties were sitting beside me and had time for an early dinner. In fact it was perfect for them as one still had work and the other had plans in Den Bosch. Thus a three-way burger date was born! Now, how does Smakers Ledig Erf compare to the original Smakers? Well, it has everything you already know and love about the original Smakers; great food, great people, great interior design and adds a new elemant; loads of light and space. The Smakers family is a consistent one which means that whether your on this side of town or more towards the centre, you're never too far away from an amazing burger now!

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.

But even if I did, it would be a no. I had great burgers and this wasn't it. I didn't touch my salad although my husband ate his. They had to redo my burger since I asked for only bacon and cheese. But they ended up dressing it with lettuce and some sauce. Oh, the important thing to note is that they only give you ONE STRIP OF BACON HOW crazy is that? And the bacon I got was RAW!! It's a late night spot so I understand the hype.

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.

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.
