    We spent an entire day in the Museum Quarter of Amsterdam, going from the Rijksmuseum then to the…read moreVan Gogh museum. Searching for a restaurant for lunch, we walked by The Seafood Bar, which showcases its range of seafood in a glass case. They had everything we could imagine, so we knew this was the place. I found out later that they have other locations across Amsterdam, but this one is nicely situated in a toney neighborhood, and its clean modern interior also recommends it. Their service is orchestrated, as they work as a team, from seating, drinks order, and so on. They are efficient and attentive. I highly recommend the seafood tower, which is a great shareable, giving you a taste of the unique shellfish found in Atlantic waters.

    I was out for my afternoon walk and saw a woman eating shrimp scampi outside - looked really good…read more(yeah, she caught me looking at her plate. I felt like a creep. A little). So came here for dinner and got the shrimp scampi! Tasted just as good as it looked! Lots of shrimp, garlic, other stuff, etc. Excellent. Lots of other seafood choices, they seem to specialize in the mixed grill / seafood tower type dishes. It all looked good. There's a counter at the front where you can pick out your dinner. Reasonable prices for what you get, really good selection of wine by the glass. Good looking and friendly staff. Five stars!

    Ok, so we're here for work and of course there's the "Where do you wanna eat question come up." So…read moreupon ample rest and meeting up to convene where we would do a smash down. We come to this conclusion. You point, which fish and if you like it, you pay by weight. It's all market price. Then they take care of everything and put it in a plate for you. With some cuts of lemon and let the smash down occur. You pay,, they give you a number. After that it's all honor system with the condiments and drinks of whatever non alcoholic drinks as you might please. After a few chit chats, the food arrives and you just open up on it. It's so good, specially to the fish aficionados. This a playground of good fish. Everything was good and fresh. Takes me back to living in the islands. Anyways, I do recommend this to anyone that eats "real fish." Bato bato sa langit, kung matamaan wag magalit. Wouldn't mind totally smashing here any day. It's that good. Thank you so much for reading my review. I hope this helps with your decision making experience. Enjoy your awesome yelptastic day!!!

Boy oh boy this is some of the best eating you're going to get! The food is fresh from the daily haul of local fish and other seafood delicacies. We had fried anchovies, smelts, shrimp, mussels, sea bass, red snapper, tuna and other items I couldn't identify, but so very delicious. My cousin who lives near this restaurant made the other choices. There was also a beautiful salad with lettuce, tomato, cucumber, carrots and corn. We were also given a most delectable spicy red sauce to dip the bread. This restaurant gave me my total European moment. We dined alfresco in a local quaint neighborhood with shops in between houses and apartments in a very clean artsy neighborhood. As we sat outside we saw all of the local Amsterdam residents pass us on their bikes that had baskets with of course two loves bread and cheese.

The veggie dish was not an afterthought like at many seafood places, it was actually one of the highlights of the night. Service was friendly and impeccable.

Wines pair very will with the menu and they have some very reasonably priced but excellent selections. Great people from the chef to server and oyster shuckers, you will enjoy. I had a selection of different oysters selected by the shucker and they were each different flavor profile but each outstanding! Sweet, mineral tasting, creamy and saline. Good selection. Just a bit of a squeeze of lemon tartness all that was needed to accentuate the flavor. I followed with mussels in a Gorgonzola sauce. I was a bit put off thinking the Gorgonzola would overwhelm the flavor and sweetness of the Mussel but I am a convert. Only thing was I had to ask for more of that delectable sauce and crusty bread to sop up all that delicious sauce. They were happy to oblige and I was in heaven. Seafood in the hands of this chef is a joy. Try this place. You will not be disappointed!
