Eating vegetarian when traveling, takes planning ahead & fortunately I'm a planner! When I knew…read morethe Mr & I would be spending a weekend getaway in Amsterdam, I scoured around to see what our options would be & luckily I stumbled upon Marits Huiskamer Welcomed into her HOME on Fridays & Saturdays only, diners are treated to the most delicious, professionally prepared, locally-sourced, meal of vegetarian excellence. There are about maybe 8 tables ( can't remember exactly ) & some tables are communal in nature so if you have a small party, you may get an opportunity to make some new friends. The Mr & I had a solo table for ourselves but the cozy feel of the place made the environment warm & inviting Amuse of watermelon with feta & olives in cilantro Table bread was a lovely Green olive bread with organic teeny black olives Started w/ the yellow split pea soup with marscapone mousse & mustard seeds plus Dijon mixed in there - outstandingly savory & totally tasted like there was a bit of curry! Ravioli & talllegio w/ kelp sauce. No taste of sea grass but lots of peas & pea pods & ravioli was stuffed with peas too & cheese. Super! Fennel tart with tomatoes. Roasted potato & shaved carrot & seaweed. Beet carpaccio with goat cheese & honey. Yellow cucumber salad w edible flowers. Loved how all the dishes complimented each other Desserts included - white chocolate mousse w/ hint of wasabi in strawberry sauce for the Mr. He totally loved the spicy wasabi afterkick to the smooth sweet chocolate Plum Clafoutis w vanilla ice cream - sweet plums in a flaky crust was warm & gooey & delicious comfort food Bottle of Rioja wine to wash it all down - full bodied & smooth taste with a hint of tart to compliment the cheese This restaurant was such a wonderful find & we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a super gourmet meal & a unique dining Amsterdam experience

The worst food and the worst service I've ever experienced in Amsterdam. The second course of my…read morefood had an insect in it. There was no attempt made by the staff to rectify this in any way, whatsoever. I understand that these things happen. Any attempt at a genuine apology would have prevented me from writing this review. There wasn't an offer of a beverage, or any discount to the meal. They could have chosen not to charge us for the two bottles of water. There was an optional course ordered which I attempted to cancel (naturally, I lost my appetite after seeing a live insect crawling in the second course), which they informed me that they could not cancel without charging me. They could have offered the extra course for free. There was the option to add a spoon of caviar to another dish for extra charge. I explicitly asked whether that could be on the house, you know, given the aforementioned insect on a previous course. Not only was this denied, the server did not even bother to acknowledge the comment. Lastly, when the check arrived, I informed them that there was zero attempt made to rectify the mistake of the insect. All we got was an apology that the staff was not able to pick up on the signals of our dissatisfaction- as if the bug, the request to cancel the optional dish free of charge, the willful ignorance over the caviar, and my complaint after getting the bill were not enough. Even without the insect incident, the food was phenomenally subpar for this city. My recommendation would be to never visit this restaurant. The food is terrible, the conditions are unsanitary, and the service is appalling.

Absolutely spectacular meal from start to finish at Bolenius…read more As part of our vacations, we like to dine at a michelin star restaurant for at least one meal. I am a little bit restricted by my vegetarian diet which is what ultimately directed us to Bolenius as they have a plant-based option. If you're visiting Amsterdam as a tourist, it's a bit of a trek from the city center but pretty quick and easy to get there by the metro, which was our mode of transportation. Our reservation was at 7pm but it was such an incredible experience, we literally did not leave the place until, I want to say like 10:30pm. The interior decor is unique and vibes with the brand pretty well. The service was excellent from start to finish. It is definitely a team effort as we interacted with many different servers who were all kind, wonderful, and welcoming. Everything was thoroughly explained to us. I went the vegetarian tasting menu route and GF did the standard tasting menu. We also accepted most of the additional add ons like wine pairing, their recommended beet dish, and cheese selection at the end of the meal. I was grateful to see a variety of ingredients used for the vegetarian menu instead of just the standard mushrooms 100 times over and over again that is common at other establishments. They also employed many different textures and innovative presentations to the dishes including the foam, which I'm pretty sure is required for a restaurant to get a star, but also things like a shaved and latticed ASPARAGUS dish. The dishes were, as you would probably expect, like works of art. Like I said above, I have somewhat of a history dining at Michelin starred restaurants but I think it's safe to say that this was the best experience I have ever had and cannot recommend it enough.

It is SO hard to find upscale vegetarian restaurants anywhere so when I find one - I HAVE to try it…read moreand I am so glad we went here. It was the perfect way to end our trip. the restaurant does not have a menu. Instead they just serve you a 'surprise' which is basically some recipes that they may have planned for the week. I believe the meals change frequently. If you have any allergies you should tell them ahead of time. They served us a 3 course meal with wine and it was pricey but not unreasonable. I think it was around $130 total for both of us. I will say that you need to come hungry because three courses is a lot of food! You can box it up if you would like - you just have to ask. The service here was a little slow. Our reservations were at 7:30 and we left a little after 9. Maybe it's because they want their guests to really relax and enjoy their food? Idk, we were not in a hurry so we were fine. The food here is really good. When we went it was a mix of multiple areas (they had some tastes of Europe, some asia, some south america ect). It is also run by a husband and wife team which I love. Small businesses truly make the best food because it will always taste homemade. The ambiance here is also very intimate and is great for a romantic date. I loved eating here. If you are a vegetarian (im sure they also accommodate vegans too) foodie, you have to stop by here if you get a chance!

Lucky for us, we found Betty's Not only were they open on a Sunday ( which, here in Amsterdam, is harder to find than you might think.....& especially difficult during the summer / vacation months ) PLUS they're a full-on vegetarian restaurant! Welcomed with the loveliest glass of wine - we ended up getting a bottle it was so delish. Advised they were celebrating their 26th Anniversary & were offering a set menu for the evening - sounded perfect for us Started w/ a tomato & sweet potato soup w fried kale - loved the flavor combination & the crispy kale was a wonderful texture layer Paired w/ the soup was a bread-basket & plate with: Coconut & cashew nut chutney w/ chickpeas w chili, roasted tomatoes & sweet peppers, potato & eggplant. My favorite was the coconut & the Mr loved the potato & eggplant. We both devoured the chickpea & chilis 2nd course. More small tastes that packed a lot of flavor - split pea polenta; ratatouille; goat cheese w onion jam; beets with maple syrup & balsamic caviar; pumpkin & coconut; artichokes & tomatoes 3rd course dessert.......we were walked over to this huge dessert cooler & given a brief description of their cake selection. The Mr chose a Maple Walnut Pie & I chose the Chocolate & Caramel Torte. Ended up preferring each other's desserts so happily shared both - which I never do!

We also had their chips and salsa, which was good and better than expected as we have very high standards. Our friends arrived and we talked awhile before actually ordering. The place filled up fairly quickly but never got too loud for conversation. My wife and I shared the tacos carnitas our friends had the chicken nachos and a chicken burrito. Everyone seemed to enjoy their meals. Our tacos were flavorful, tasty and a good portion size. The only drawback, was not enough to deduct a star, was that the pico de gallo was wet enough that the tacos were resting in a shallow soup. Still they were good so no big deal. If you are from Texas and craving Mexican food, this is the place to go, 5 star service and ambience, reasonable prices, and 4.5 star food (so 5 star overall). If you are not from Texas or Mexico, and you want to try those flavors, try this place. Highly recommended, you won't be disappointed. Felize comiendo!
