    Parfum de Provence

    We made a reservation for dinner on a Friday night. It was last minute reservation but they managed to fit the six of us in. The lobby entrance is understated and casual. I loved it as soon as we walked in. The very chill staff showed us to our table. The cocktails were so fun and instagrammable. We each got a couple. They were good but small. I liked the monkfish but the peppers as appetizer were simple and a highlight. They care very much about presentation of the dishes. I say that because the ravioli was covered in foam. It was under there somewhere! As with most places in Amsterdam it's hard to find someone to come by when you want to pay and leave, but it was a busy Friday night, and that phenomenon is not unique to Lotti's. They're trying. After the meal we went upstairs and played with the photo booth. Pro tip: Six people will not show up in the photo.

    Scrambled eggs on sourdough toast with a side of bacon - delicious

    Great spot for brunch. There are plenty of European options, but after the long flight I went with the scrambled eggs and bacon, served with sourdough sliced toast. The eggs were very buttery and cooked perfectly. The bacon was crispy, although surprisingly salty. Add cold brew coffee and it's a great start to the day... even if it starts at noon! The staff was very friendly and service was prompt. There was one man constantly watching tables, directing the wait staff and making sure everyone had what they needed. If you find yourself in the area get some brunch!

    Loved my lunch at Lotti's! The ambiance was very comforting and the dining area was clean. I really enjoyed the avocado toast with a cappuccino. Will be back next time I am in Amsterdam!

    We were exhausted after our red eye from New York, our hotel room wasn't ready and we needed a bite to eat. This spot has adorable tables along the canal, and delicious food! Perfect find.

    Inside the Hoxton Hotel. Great cocktail list but I went for mezcal neat. Cool cat atmosphere, buzzy. Hang out here for a quick break from strolling the canals and getting out of the wind if you've come during winter. Cozy seats, fireplace... sit back and enjoy.

    The herengracht cocktail.

    We stayed at the Hoxton and greatly enjoyed capping off our days with a cocktail downstairs at Lotti's. While it did get very busy, we were always able to find a spot in the comfy lounge. Service was consistently friendly and attentive. The first day I had the Other kind of smoke cocktail which was delicious. The second day I had the Herengracht cocktail which was also good but a little less exciting. We didn't eat any food so can't comment on that, but as a bar I'd definitely recommend it.

    I was there for drinks after dinner out somewhere else. It is both restaurant and bar serving also the hotel upstairs. Very cool place with great great cocktails. But you can also sip great beers and wines Hard core DJ blast great music which was so pleasant it did not matter the volume. The 2 winter cocktails I picked were super good. I will try next the food and if it is good as the drinks it will get to 5 stars. Service very nice but a bit disorganized.

    Terrible service here. The food was average. I had a broccoli soup (just ok) and a roasted vegetable and mozzarella sandwich which was good. Unfortunately for a hotel restaurant you are stuck with this as the only choice within. The hostess is not welcoming and the servers are just inattentive.

    House cocktails in heavy etched glasses. So traditional!

    I can't get over this place! So much to say and yet all I want to say is "yum!" "cool!" "awesome!" But I'll try to be a bit more descriptive...but really, you can stop reading here and just go. Ok then, here's the nitty gritty. It is inside the Hotel Hoxton with a black awning. When we went there was a doorman dressed in black. Just mention you are going to the restaurant and he will point you in that direction. We were then greeted by the hostess and directed to our seats. There's a lobby-type area with comfy seats and the bar nearby, another area is under a huge skylight which is where we sat and loved it (you could see into the kitchen), and then an area just past that in a mood-lit area where I would recommend for a date. Though the whole area is great for a date. That area just, um, sets the mood. The food is based on Italian dishes, but some Dutch thrown in there. So if you are Dutch, no worries, you can get your bitterballen ;) -SPOILER ALERT- Everything was delicious, so I won't bother saying that after everything. This menu was for two people...just so you don't get the idea I ate EVERYTHING listed! Served with bread and oil Cheese croquettes-nice, hot, cheesy goodness Rib Eye-perfectly cooked, juicy, flavorful and served with Bearnaise sauce Veal-tender, flavorful, crispy coating with beautiful presentation Fries-very good, but not Flemish-style Chocolate Mousse-creamy, chocolatey, not overly sweet and served with crushed pistachios Tiramisu-not traditional, but tasty. Seemed more like a pudding than traditional tiramisu. House cocktails: An Engroni cocktail and cocktail with vodka and cucumber. Both smooth and refreshing. Longer wine list than you would expect for a place like this. Menu is long enough for you to find something for you, but not too long that it takes you forever to just read through it. Decor is simple and classy without being overly fancy. The staff is professional, courteous, polite, friendly. A highlight in Amsterdam. Prices are very reasonable for the level of service and quality of food. Perfect for: drinks with friends, business meal, date night, evening with visiting parents.

    Delicious homemade iced tea! Something a little citrus spicy to it. It's wonderful.

We had originally booked the Damrak 213 location but had to cancel due to a flight delay. Determined to make the most of our short time before heading to Paris the next morning, I chose this location because it was close to the areas we wanted to explore after dinner -- and I'm so glad I did. After reading on their website that they keep tables available for walk-ins at most locations, we decided to try our luck. As soon as my best friend and I walked in, we were not disappointed. The ambiance felt right immediately -- warm, inviting, and full of good energy. There was little to no wait, and the fresh seafood display at the front looked incredible. Vanessa was our lovely server and truly a whole vibe throughout the evening. She, along with "Mr. Champion," gave us great suggestions on where to walk and explore next -- and we absolutely took their advice. I love a menu where you can order and split a little bit of everything with a friend, and every single dish was perfection. The shrimp croquettes, king prawns, asparagus, roasted carrots, and fish and chips (kibbeling) were all served hot, fresh, and packed with flavor at a very reasonable price. The kitchen was run by a Black chef who was clearly putting in serious work and completely understanding the assignment. I wanted to personally commend him, but he was fully locked in and busy creating magic. Even the espresso martini stood out -- easily one of the best I've had. Great, relatable conversations, amazing food, and the evening ended on a sweet note with a complimentary lemon crème brûlée served with sparkles. This spot is truly a neighborhood gem. I'm so glad we chose this location -- it turned a rushed travel day into a memorable night dining with some true champions. We can't wait to return with more time to fully enjoy the experience.

When I walked in, there was only one person at the entrance, and I was completely ignored. A family ahead of me was immediately seated, but I had to wait and try to get someone's attention--it took quite a while. I was finally seated at the bar, which was fine since I was alone, but I couldn't shake the feeling that I was an inconvenience. Everything, from getting a drink to ordering food, felt like a struggle, and the staff didn't make me feel welcome at all. The food was okay--I've had better--but the overall experience left me feeling unwelcome, and I couldn't wait to leave. I'm genuinely surprised by the high reviews, because I felt quite the opposite. I'm not sure I'd recommend this place or come back

    This place was recommended in an article that I read about things to do/try in Amsterdam. On our…read morefirst morning in the city, our walking tour guide also recommended it saying if there was one "Dutch" food to try, herring was it! Not only that, he said it was the time of year for fresh, great tasting herring. So after building up an appetite during our tour, we walked straight to Rob Wigboldus Vishandel. At the counter, I asked for a menu but the friendly older gentleman (possibly the owner) replied saying we probably wanted the herring sandwich, so we went with his suggestion. It's a very small place - we were lucky to grab a table while we waited. It didn't take long though, the sandwiches are very simply made: fresh herring, chopped onions, and pickles. That's it. I'm not going to lie, I was not expecting to really like this fishy sandwich, but when in Rome ... And guess what? It was delicious! Herring is naturally oily and mild-tasting! It was very inexpensive, too! I wish we had more time to go back while we were in town.

    It's exactly what I expected! As a tourist I heard about the famous local herring and had to try…read moresome. Sandwiches were the way to go according to the locals, so this was it. It was close to my hotel and centrally located downtown Amsterdam. No line, they took credit card and the guys were very friendly! Only gave it 4 stars because I was a big fan of the sandwich but that is personal taste / choice. If you're in town you gotta try one and this is as good as it gets!

Since…read moreAmsterdam is near the sea, we thought that fish should be a good idea - and so "Mr. Crab" sounded just right. They absolutely did not disappoint - everything we ordered was fresh, very well seasoned and prepared masterly. Perfectly grilled tuna steak, fresh shrimps, very tasty oysters and lots more. The staff is very friendly and every conversation was sincerely heartfelt. On our next trip to Amsterdam, we'll certainly visit Mr. Crab again! And so should you, if you're looking for great seafood.

Too much oil! Right after dinner we felt a bit off and we mentioned to the restaurant manager we didn't like the food. His response was "well, you can go and pay now!". Not to our surprise, the next day we were both sick! Vomitting and diarrhea! So we called the restaurant and the same manager told us that he didn't believe us because their burger is the ranked the number one burger in town. He continued telling us we need proof that it was this burger that made us sick and therefore we needed to get a medical statement from our doctor to serve as proof. Not only is the food bad but the customer service is nowhere to be found! As we sat at the restaurants there were two ladies complaining as well (they had the same complaints: too much oil). However, they got offered a free dessert. Through this whole conflict, the manager did not once offered a solution for our complaints. As he just continued to treat us poorly. We want our money back! To conclude, DO NOT EAT AT MR. CRAB!
