    Great vibe
    Scott C.

    This place is a winner. I would totally come back and bring friends. The place is bistro charming but has a white table cloth elegance. The flavors, temperature and texture were spot on. The salad was huge for a side dish and had a wonderful mix of greens, olives, hearts of palm, beets . The flavors are totally Mediterranean as well as fresh and bright. The duck confit was full of flavor, very tender and a bit sweet. The sweet potato side was a bit salty but not too bad. The lamb tagine was a generous portion of tender and most lamb shoulder Again, the sauce is very rich, so getting a side of cous cous is key. Overall a great experience.

    The gins on the menu are not listed but they're delightful!

    I had dinner here a few weeks ago after months and months of raving from friends who had labelled this their favourite restaurant in Amsterdam. Thank the lucky skies, when all the stars aligned and we managed to squeeze dinner in one night! And squeeze we did, as we managed two starters, two mains, a side of bread (with their hummus which.. oh god. I could have happily eaten just this with all of the bread with an extra side of bread), two (incredible) G&T cocktails and a bottle of red. At this point in the evening, full to bursting, in the corner of my mind- I was planning my next visit which involved dessert and more cocktails! And yes, the food was exceptional. From all my friends yammering, everything on the menu is worthy of mention. So I'll leave it there for all of you to make up your own minds. Shout out to the sole waiter who was dashing around like a dancer, making sure everyone was happy and everyone was full! What a delightful little experience at a random spot in De Pijp!

    Mamouche is a wonderful, big restaurant in the De Pijp area in Amsterdam. My boyfriend and I stopped in here for dinner because it's quick close to both the Rijksmuseum and the Van Gogh Museum. If it's a nice day, there's wonderful outdoor seating across the pedestrian walkway outside of the restaurant. We ordered an appetizer to share and an entree each. I can't remember the exact names of each dish, but all the food was incredible! The service is quick, the staff is friendly, and we were able to make it to the museum exactly when we needed to. They also serve homemade bread and hummus to start, both of which were great! My favorite dish was actually the appetizer, which was tuna and potatoes wrapped in phyllo dough. Definitely a must try!

    Great great food but must plan at least 2+ hours for dinner and double confirm your reservation! We arrived for our 8pm reservation made online but they did not have our name on the list or a table ready. They were able to prepare a table for us and we were seated by 8:30 after witnessing 2 other couples with reservations being asked to wait and one sent away because there was no possibility to prepare a table. The waiter did not offer a cocktail for the long wait and some of the cocktails on the menu couldn't be ordered as ingredients were missing. We ordered pretty quickly after being seated but did not actually receive our main course until 10:15 pm!!!! There is a clear view into the kitchen and we were able to watch the cook who did prepare everything from scratch and fresh, and as I said, it was truly delicious, but such a wait is a bit too much. seeing that 3 couples had reservations and none of us were listed is a bit concerning especially when in Amsterdam for only a short stay. So, if you have an entire evening to spare and can ensure your reservation is confirmed by the restaurant (not just online reservation website), this is a must go to if you like Moroccan food. If the food had not made up for the long wait i would have given a score of 1 star!

    Started with a great glass Prosecco!!!

    What a great find! We love Moroccan cuisine and were thrilled to find this little gem. A great romantic dinner during a short stay in Amsterdam! I would recommend reservations. We started with the Chicken Bastilla then had the Lamb Tangine and cous cous. The flavors were amazing and we would highly recommend a visit!

    Great starter!

    Great place, very good service. Definitely try their special appetitive with rose leaf in it!

    See all

We were able to get seated right on the window area. We chose menu 5, which was just enough for two people. Everything was delicious! Their pea soup is out of this world. Don't know why as it is a simple dish but wow! I also love their herring. It was so delicious that I wanted seconds. It paired so well with their onions and mustard. And their bitterballen was just enough bite. Creamy and crispy! We also got a combination of the hutspot. They were all delicious! Although for me the meatball was just a tad bit salty but it is probably just me! Everything else was spot on. I love their dessert at the end. It was a great way to end the night. Our server and their staff were all amazing! Very friendly and welcoming. Yes it is a tourist spot but totally worth it.

We did not have one but they were happy to seat the 2 of us and invited us to switch tables once another couple left (they were checking out). Small space, can accommodate groups of 2-4, cozy atmosphere, lots of the traditional blue and white ceramics on the wall (dishes and tiles). Traditional Dutch cuisine: we ordered the Boerenkoolstamppot with smoked sausage and Zuurkoolstamppot with smoked sausage and a slice of apple pie to share for dessert. The food arrived piping hot in about 20 minutes. It was sooo delicious--the tasty juicy sausage pairs perfectly the mashed potatoes with either sauerkraut or kale. The apple pie was also tasty--larger chunks of apple and more spices less sugar than American apple pie from what I can tell. Perfect with whipped cream. A must visit if you're in Amsterdam and want to try traditional fare. Highly recommended!

    Will go through pros and cons: Pros…read more- next to none - nice looking restaurant and bar itself Cons - Appalling service for a "nicer" restaurant in a bustling neighborhood - put in an order for dirty martinis, bread/butter, oysters, steak frites, and red bass - out of martini glasses by 7pm. What?? - rock hard bread I wouldn't feed a dog and plastic container butter - lackluster oysters - steak frites came out just about raw (1.5 hours after ordering). Had to send back. Came back with no sauce on top, no mayo for fries - red bass decent - server/waiter said it "wasn't his fault" and "the system didn't take our order". No empathy, no anything. - the most appalling part. Offered us a free drink or a coffee. WHAT?? Didn't comp the martinis, didn't comp the awful steak frites, or anything. Sorry excuse for a restaurant that, if based on service and food, should be out of business. Won't be back. Go to brut de mer instead. No stars

It's high-energy, crowded (in a fun way), and the people-watching is 10/10. It feels like a lively mix of Paris and New York in the heart of the canals. Great for a group lunch. Service is professional and fast-paced to keep up with the crowd. The food (like the Steak Frites) is consistently solid, but you are definitely here for the energetic atmosphere and the perfect location. A great 4-star spot if you want to soak in the fashionable Amsterdam.

They do make up for it with their personalities. The restaurant itself is small and typically can hold groups of 2 to 5. The menu is small, but all the dishes are high quality. 1. Amuse bouche goat cheese - had a nice smoky flavor and fresh 2. Scallops - small but packed with flavor. There is a white sauce that complimented the scallops and the bread pastry with onions 3. Goat cheese terrine - very nice soft goat cheese mixed with onions as well as berry and veggies. Only wish there was more bread. 4. Sea bream - very nicely done with a fresh taste of the meat and a crispy skin. Pairs well with its sauce and tomatoes. 5. Ravioli - nicely done al dente with a herby sauce and packed ravioli 6. Bread pudding - one of the best I've had and came out fresh and hot. Comes with a white sauce as well as boozy caramel sauce. Overall, I would highly recommend this restaurant which has received very nice reviews for over 10 years. I'm glad we chose this restaurant during my stay here.
