    Super fast and friendly service despite the large crowds. Huge portions and the kibbeling I got was lightly fried

    smoked avocado burger ($14.50)

    Good spot for lunch in Volendam but it felt like the food was precooked instead of freshly cooked. I visited Volendam as part of a tour group, and our tour guide recommended De Lunch, so my friend and I came here for lunch. We had a little over an hour to eat, but it's clear they're used to catering to tour groups here as we were in and out of here in about an hour. Very quick. They have some outdoor seating on the sidewalk and along the water. I didn't go inside the restaurant, but I assume there's plenty of seating inside as well, since they were seating a lot of people inside constantly. The menu is seafood focused, but they have other entrees like steak, grilled chicken, burgers (including a veggie one!) as well. They have a special menu with their most popular items, including kibbeling (fried fish) and vismix, an assortment of fried seafood, which made it easy to order. I got the vismix for $17.50, which I thought was very reasonably priced. It comes with fried calamari, cod fish (i.e. kibbeling), mussels, and shrimp, along with a very generous side of french fries. The food came out super fast after ordering, which makes me think they fry things in big batches in the kitchen and then just assemble once customers order. Because of that, the food had cooled down and wasn't even warm. It was still delicious, especially the calamari and mussels, but I would've preferred something that was piping hot, so you know they just cooked it. The fries were pretty meh and I only ate a couple pieces. My friend got the vegetarian smoked avocado burger ($14.50) and really enjoyed it. I'm glad they have something for everyone!

    What a delicious and quick lunch! We were sat promptly and the food came out faster than you could blink! Even better was that it was delicious! It was astonishing how fast they got people in and out and were able to sit groups of people without missing a beat. The weinerschnitzel was fantastic and my family enjoyed their meals as well. The service was so friendly too!

    Tomato Soup

    Truly delicious food. Tomato Soup- One of the best tomato soup I've ever had. It was hearty and comforting. (€6.50) Fried Fish Mix- Tasty mixture of fried fish. I like that this dish came with different sauces. The fries that were included were honestly the best I had in The Netherlands during my trip. (€15.50) Very enjoyable food and atmosphere.

    We stopped by for a snack of french fries. It is a bit crowded and you wait in line and order and pay then step aside. The will hand you you food. Abut crazily organized. The fries are hot and pretty good.

    Amazing place. There's an indoor section and also an outdoor section that's on the water. Food is fair priced. Drinks are amazing. Quantity of food was very good. Everything we had was delicious.

    Right on the harbor, overlooking the water, this is a great spot to grab some food and enjoy the view. The menu is very limited, but the food was good and it came out very quickly.

    Opted for Waterfront seating... Service was fast & efficient, which was ideal since most of the diners with with tours. Ordered Mussels and Prawns, enjoyed them but not anything out of the ordinary.

    Empty tables our group wasn't allowed to sit.

    Ordered some drinks and some food out of the take out window food was good went to sit down at a empty seat near the water and was asked to leave because we didn't order to eat in. So beware of that. Area is beautiful food isn't bad.

    We enjoyed a quick lunch here during a pit stop to Amsterdam. The view was lovely and there were indoor and outdoor seating options. We chose outside even though there was an on and off drizzle but it was sunny and still nice out. The service was friendly and the food was delicious. We wanted to try a little of everything and we weren't super hungry so we tried the fried mixed plate. One plate was enough for two not super hungry people. Everything was good but the star of the show was the calamari.

    Fried Kibbeling
    Cathy C.

    I went here for a quick lunch since I had to meet somebody in front of this restaurant. The recommended dish was the kibbeling. I had no clue what kibbeling was except that it's fish. I looked at the menu anyway just to see if there's something else that would spark my interest. The place was packed with tourists. If you see an open table, you take it and share with a bunch of other people then a server comes to you and takes your order. I got kibbeling, and a hot cherry pancake. Fried Kibbeling: Cod but meatier with fries and different sauces: tartar, ketchup, and sweet and sour. The fish was fresh and tasty. You get fried slightly naked fish nuggets. All the sauces worked but the sweet and sour was a bit odd to dip this fish in. 4/5 Hot Cherry Pancake: Pankoekken! They have different varieties of pancakes/toppings but hot cherry isn't so common and I like cherries. You get a huge thin pancake with hot syrupy cherries and chantilly. Oh my! This was soooo amazing! The cherries were a bit tart but balanced by the sweetness of the syrup and chantilly. Dutch pancakes are supposed to be almost as thin and as light as crepes which I love. 5/5 The only problem was that the service was a bit bad. We placed our order first but other tables got their food before we did. Getting our check took a lot of follow-ups until we finally got up and got ready to leave. There's not very many restaurants in this area though.

    The place is charming by the big lake (felt like a sea) and we sat on the first set of table where birds could fly near his. Just don't let those birds take your fries! Other than that - my mixed seafood platter was quite good. The cod fish was fresh and done right. Mussels were good too. Squid batter was not crisp but the squid was tender. The one shrimp "sigala" type was good too. Place is reasonably priced even when you sit down inside.

    There is almost *no* room to sit inside comfortably. Just a handful of bar stools around the sides,…read moreyou'll be cramped uncomfortably next to your neighbors. 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.

    This was our last meal in Amsterdam and I have to say, they had the best burger i have ever had! I…read moremean, no joke! I ordered the cheesy freak, my daughter ordered the silly cheesesteak and my other daughter and hubby got the classic plus we ordered a side of roasted potatoes. Our burgers were cooked PERFECTLY to medium rare! The three cheeses were so nicely melted and complemented each other beautifully. The burger was juicy but somehow not greasy! We realized this just be the difference between American beef and grass fed Dutch beef! And the potatoes were to die for! I do not typically like roasted potatoes, but these were perfectly seasoned and perfectly cooked so they were slightly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The service was spot on! When we walked in, there were not enough seats, but the staff took our order, and assured us that there would be seats by the time our food was ready. As soon as other patrons finished their meal, the staff called us in from outside to come and take our seats. Minutes later, our meal was delivered! They were so friendly and accommodating to us and made conversation. The vibe is very inviting and cozy. It is amazing that they were able to rotate all of the patrons in and out in an appropriate amount of time. I loved the music too! I am so glad we came here! It was a perfect end to our visit to Amsterdam!
