Chinese restaurant
Asian restaurant
Seafood restaurant
Sea Palace Restaurant is a unique three-story floating pagoda-style restaurant located on Lake IJ in Amsterdam. It offers a wide range of authentic Cantonese, Sichuan, and Beijing dishes. The interior is adorned with traditional Asian ornaments, including paper lanterns and dragon murals. The menu features classic Cantonese specialties such as crispy pork belly and dumplings, as well as an extensive selection of dim sum options available until 4pm daily.
What a place. Everything about it is extra - and I like it. The food was delicious, came in big portions and well priced. The service is peculiar, through QR codes. Not my favourite, but it works. A memorable site for a meal.
Fernando B — Google review
We had a small selection of dim sum and bbq duck noodle soup. Btw we are from Toronto Canada so we are use to good quality Chinese food. We were pleasantly surprised by the high quality of their food. The bbq duck was flavourful and lean and tender....not easy to make. A comfortable place to relax and enjoy the food.

When the Asian food cravings hit… this place delivered! 🍜✨ After weeks of traveling around Europe, I was so ready for a flavor change. My husband found this Bib Gourmand Chinese restaurant — it’s actually a floating restaurant near Amsterdam Central Station, which already makes it pretty unique! The decor was classic and ornate, full of traditional Chinese touches I honestly didn’t expect in the middle of Amsterdam. We were seated right away at a lovely window table with tons of natural light and a beautiful water view — perfect for watching boats and canal cruises drift by while we ate. We started with a couple of drinks and a pot of hot chrysanthemum tea, then ordered Mapo Tofu, Eggplant Clay Pot, and Yang Chow Fried Rice. Everything hit the spot and totally cured my Asian food cravings. I’d say the flavors are about San Francisco suburban-level good — not quite SF Chinatown-tier, but definitely solid. A strong 4 out of 5 from me! Outside it was cold and dreary, but inside we were cozy, sipping hot tea and digging into spicy Mapo Tofu — pure comfort. ❤️ Now, about the price… let’s just say, they’ll remind you you’re in Amsterdam! 😂 What would’ve been a $50 meal in the States came out to around $130 USD, but honestly, for that warm, satisfying moment, it was worth every bite.
Critsy Y — Google review
Exelent food and service. Decoration is beautiful and the view can not be better. Surely would recommend and come back. Prices a good considering the quality and that is Michelin star place.
Roberto F — Google review
An absolutely unforgettable experience that you must check off your list at least once in your lifetime! Sea Palace is not just a restaurant – it is a true attraction, a stunning floating place that makes you feel special from the very first moment. It was my first time dining in a Michelin-star restaurant, and I can say with all my heart that everything was WOW: from the elegant atmosphere and impeccable service to the delicious, authentic Chinese dishes. Every bite was amazing, and the dessert was simply divine! It was also the first time I was served by a robot, which made the whole experience even more surprising and fun. Everything was perfect: the breathtaking location the warm and friendly staff the delicious food the unique atmosphere on the water I wholeheartedly recommend it! Sea Palace is a must-visit in Amsterdam if you want an unforgettable dining experience! 🇨🇳✨🍽️🔥

Typical Asian atmosphere. Food is delicious but abit pricey sadly that’s why I removed a star. the staff are nice and English speaker, they help you and guide u through the menu. Location is close to central station and other shops. Great place for a date :)

I always thought this was more for tourists to go for food. And I appologize for that thought because every local should go here. The food is very tasteful and of high quality. We had a shared dining with Dim Sum and Peking duck. The portions are big and a good variety. The Peking duck is very good and huge so you can share one with 6 persons if you combine it with some vegetables and noodles. Juicy and soft meat with the nice crispy crust. You order with a QR code and the food comes rather quickly. We had as a family a wonderful evening at the rond table looking over the canal.

Lots of tables, easy ordering -via phone/QR code-, I had the duck bao buns, pan fried dumplings, shrimp and pork steamed dumplings: they were all delicious. Staff is friendly, price correspond to quality and water view/location. I enjoyed my meal and ambiance very much.

The restaurant's decor immerses diners in Oriental ambiance, and it is known for its wide selection of teas.

We had to wait around 30 minutes, but it was absolutely worth it! Every dish we ordered was full of flavor and beautifully cooked. The food exceeded our expectations, and the atmosphere was lively and welcoming. I genuinely loved everything we tried. I’m already thinking about coming back again before I leave Amsterdam. Highly recommend this place if you’re craving delicious Chinese food!

It was our second to last night in Amsterdam and we were looking for some Chinese cuisine. So, we landed in this place and were not disappointed with our overall experience there. We ordered Chilli Beef, Rice, Dim sum, Beer and Wine. The food was tasty, specially the Dim Sum which we liked the most. We also liked the Beef but it could have been a bit spicier. The service was welcoming and quick. Efforts were visible to make things look authentic as much as possible. The place is super comfortable and with a potential view of one of Amsterdam's famous canals. We could manage one and it made our dinner special. You can definitely give this place a try.

Good location, we had a whole lobster 🦞 and Dim Sum plus desserts. We only got one cutlery for 1 person, but we got some more after asking for it. We weren't informed that desserts will come altogether with the other food. It has been served immediately...so the coconut rabbits 🥥 🐇 🐇 and mango pudding 🍮 came first we wondered. The food was very good 👍🏻 Thank you. We would like to come again and order dessert at the end🤣

I enjoyed the food here, one of the best chinese restaurant in Amsterdam. It has the canal view that is very lovely and romantic in the evening, very close to the center and easily accessible. I would recommend the stewed beef chu hou & pecking duck dish, also sticky rice with lotus. Highly recommend

Every piece was way bigger than expected, and we ended up extremely full. Was really exciting to try all new dishes, and would love to try more next time. Favorite one so far was definitely the steamed glutinous sesame dessert.
Johan W — Google review
Overpriced compare with quality and taste. Water is more expensive than Switzerland 😀 The taste of fried noodles (vermicelli) is weird since they use curry I think. Shrimp is small and only few. It’s not like Singapore vermicelli fried. The 3 meats menu is good. The pakchoy (vegetable) is also good taste, not overcooked. The tofu is so-so The portion is big. So, make sure it’s for sharing 😀

i liked the food and people are very nice. we were sitting near the door though, there was a draft sometimes. the mushroom buns were super cute. it's great that you get a whole bowl of dipping sauce for the jellyfish with egg. my fav sauce in the world I would drink it if it wouldn't dissolve my stomache membrane

Welcome to Happyhappyjoyjoy, a vibrant culinary haven where Asian flavors come alive under a canopy of red umbrellas. This delightful eatery, the brainchild of renowned Chef Julius Jaspers, showcases an array of dishes influenced by Thai, Malay, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Chinese, and Korean cuisines. Perfect for sharing with friends or indulging solo, their menu features mouthwatering dim sum specialties like steamed dumplings and bao buns—especially famous is the duck bao bun!
Amazing and uniquely designed food, with great choice between all Asian cuisine as well as fusion and local. Waiting time wasn’t long and we found a place for two even without booking although it’s recommended. The atmosphere is incredible and the decorations are one of a kind. Worth the price, although it’s not the most expensive.

The restaurant looks nice, small plates type. Service was a bit slow, it was quite hard to get the server's attention (server's always changed). I felt like it was a bit of a rip-off, servers were pointing out the most expensive stuff on the menu and prices are too high for what you get. Ramen - not very tasty Burger - delicious Dim sum - delicious Juice - delicious

Good Asian Restaurant in Amsterdam. Really enjoyed the bao buns. The staff was quick, attentive and friendly. Besides the bao buns and the dumplings (dim sum) we also had some red curry, spring rolls and the pad thai. The pad thai was my least favourite but still good. Overall a great place. Worth a visit if you are in Amsterdam. They also have other locations in the city.

Variety of food (Thai, Indonesian, Malay and Chinese) to choose from the different courses. Food was good but the service of the staff stood out as very friendly and helpful as they also accomodated my request to replace the baby corn with the bamboo shoots in one of my dish. Recommended for a nice Asian cuisine experience.

I really wanted to try this one, but it compared to my expectations, it was okay. The staff were kind, and the atmosphere. Some menus were brilliant but some were not so special. Overall it’s not too good investment for the high price. But if you’re feeling rich, or have already had dinner and are looking for quality bites with drinks. It’s worth visiting

What a treat! This place was packed a Sunday evening in October, that’s a good sign of a great place. They have a huge selection of Asian dishes with an interesting twist. Winner was the two times tuna, Korean bbq beef and the Cuban cigar dessert. I will definitely come back here again
Claes S — Google review
At A-Fusion in Amsterdam you’ll find more than sushi — one highlight was the oysters: small, elegant, served with a delicate yuzu-pearl garnish. They set the tone for a night of creative Asian fusion — Chinese, Thai, Japanese influences all on one menu. Just a tiny thing: the dish has only three oysters, so if you’re a big fan, you might want to get two portions. I ended up with three, but I should have ordered at least five—it was too late to add extras. We had a reservation for 10 PM, and we were a bit late, but they still let us in and took such good care of us. But hey, with the oysters, sushi, dumplings, and grilled skewers, we were super happy and already dreaming of coming back!

Decent overall dining experience. Excellent friendly and prompt service. The Bib Gourmand pre-set menu was perfect for a party of 2. Soup dumplings were the highlight in the menu, and the pancakes were a miss. This is probably a mid-range dining place in terms of ambience, pricing is based on a high-end place (€8 for a bottle of water!). Overall pretty decent dining experience.

This bustling eatery, located near the iconic Red Light District, is a haven for dim sum enthusiasts.

After a long journey in Europe, this is the very first Chinese meal we’re looking for. The foods were very good but we had to wait for around 10 minutes to seating. The small entrance door is chaos as there are 2 lines for the restaurant and the takeaway bakery. Once we sit in the restaurant area, we can’t order the bakery to eat at our table only takeaway.

Was scrolling through older photos and realized that I had not left a review for this place. Was here for lunch on August 29, 2025 with two other people. This review pertains to the restaurant and not the bakery. Mediocre dim sum overall. Ordered a variety of dishes, one of which was the spare ribs with black beans. The meat smelled bad. We tasted it and it had definitely gone bad. They had served spoiled meat. We sent it back. The server came back saying, "it's supposed to be like that." Wow. The nerve they had to outright lie, but I guess they were trying to cover their mistake. About 30 min later, saw another group sitting in the corner also send back the spare ribs dish. The two of us that each tried a piece of the dish had digestive issues later in the day as a result. The rest of the dishes were only just ok. Passable, but not good. Aside from the incident, the service was good. Prices are reasonable.

I went there around 5pm because I got a train at 6:30 so no reservation at that time, but the waiter was nice to give me a table. However the foods are just basic…. The siumai are good , the chicken feet basic , the xiaolongbao basic as well and there is the black beans steamed porc ribs that came in the end but it was not good…. I don’t recommend it , but for the dumplings soup is okay for the price If you expect a 10/10 , it’s just a 6.8/10 体验可以,但不太值得

Best savoury buns in town! The little bakery serves sweet and savoury pastries such as pork buns and muffins and they're not expensive. The perfect snack.
Laura L — Google review
The pastries are not warm. However, the Swiss rolls and the little sponge cakes are very moist and soft with the right amount of sweetness. The "pineapple" buns are also soft and chewy even though the "pineapple" flakes are not crispy. The "old wife" cake is ok. They open at noon but they are pretty busy. The pastries are pretty much gone at about 3 pm.

Full Moon Garden in Amsterdam is a popular spot for dim sum and Cantonese cuisine enthusiasts. Situated near Leidseplein, this first-floor restaurant offers a variety of dishes such as prawn dumplings and sticky rice wrapped in lotus leaves. Known for its representation of Cantonese cuisine, the restaurant serves steamed, stir-fried, and roasted dishes that are milder in flavor compared to other Chinese cuisines.
I have been eating there several times and now I am a regular guest. I don t want to share my experience because I want to keep it for myself and my company. I like the food because of the variation of fish, meat and vegetables. Also vegetarians get full attention with different good dishes. I like the people because they are friendly and patient with me. The atmosphere is friendly and relaxed. Keep the good things going Full Moon.

Very good dim sum. The highlight was the har gao which is my test for a dim sum restaurant. Shrimp pieces were large so that the filling retains the texture of shrimp. I don’t trust restaurants that use finely minced filling that suggest scraps have been used. The chicken siu mai was good too. Not rubbery and overcooked as siu mai sometimes can be. Stuffed aubergine was deep fried rather than the pan fried cantonese version I am used to. I am always happy to see dim wrapped in tofu skins on a menu, as these are unusual. However the steamed parcels with carrot, chicken and shitake were disappointingly bland. I am more accustomed to the fried tofu skins rolls. I was sorry to see too late that my favourite xiao long bao (broth filled Shanghai dumplings) were offered. They were hidden in the steamed bun section instead of the steamed dumpling section of the menu. Atmosphere is modern and airy. On a Friday at lunchtime most of the clientele were Asian ladies who lunch. There was light jazz playing, accompanied by the sound of giggling, well dressed ladies.

It was my first time here and I was very surprised by the quality of the food the taste of the food and the way it’s being served and prepared. Basically, you choose from small to big dishes and you can estimate the portions yourself. What really requires appreciation is the authentic taste of every dish something that is really rare to find so highly recommend visiting and trying soups! 😜

One of the best dimsum restaurant in Amsterdam! Small but cozy (you can also make a reservation to make sure you find a table) everything super fresh and so tasty, good portions, good prices, the staffs super friendly all the time! 100% recommend and looking forward to come back soon.

Lovely dim sum place! I went by myself and had a cosy seat near the bar. A condensed menu they got for dim sum, you could find most of the popular dim sum tho. Average Ams price most of the dishes are ~ 7 euros. Some of the dim sum are really delicious and since I’m a Chinese so you can take my word. The restaurant is not very big so I think it’d be better to book in advanced. Located in a more residential area so more local vibes here which I like a lot. Will come back.

Mandarin restaurant
New King is a popular restaurant located in the center of Amsterdam, offering a sleek wood interior and serving delicious Mandarin dishes such as duck and dim sum. While it can be challenging to secure a seat due to the no-reservation policy and high demand, the delightful dim sum and chef's specialty Peking duck make it worth the effort. The menu also features Indonesian staples like bami and nasi, providing a diverse culinary experience.
Always my favorite Chinese restaurant in Amsterdam. All the dishes were exceptionally delicious and fast-delivered. However, the waiting line is quite long, you can expect more than 30 minutes, and inside there are cramped and crowded seats, makes sense because the food is worth it. If you do not mind waiting and sitting very close to other tables, there are no reasons why you shouldn't visit them. Some of my dish recommendation are: Filled Eggplant with Fish, Roasted Duck, Soya Chicken. For vegetarians, go for the Salt & Pepper Tofu with Pine Nuts. Prices are reasonable, portions are quite big, so one dish per person is enough.

Absolutely loved everything we ordered here! The restaurant offers a wide variety of authentic Chinese dishes, full of flavor and tradition. The service was excellent, with friendly and helpful staff who guided us through the menu. The fried duck was incredible—crispy, tender, and perfectly seasoned. My absolute favorite was the soup: simple, yet so rich and comforting, it truly stood out. The meatballs inside weren’t the best, but overall, the balance of flavors made it unforgettable. A place I’d definitely recommend to anyone looking for real Chinese cuisine!

Excellent restaurant. It’s crowded and tables are close to each other, but this adds to the charm. Service is very professional , I was waited on by a nice gentleman who was extremely courteous and spoke perfect English. The food is perfect.. the Duck was very tasty and so was the wonton soup. My friends joined later and got to sample many other dishes, all was good and authentic. Even though the restaurant is in the heart of the touristy area, it is a very very decent Chinese restaurant. It is not cheap at all, 40 euros for a quarter of a duck, a small Wonton soup and a bottle of water (the mark up on the water was very steep)

One of our fav go-to for authentic, traditional Chinese food in Amsterdam. Pros: Delicious and genuinely authentic menu. Perfect for any occasion—with friends or solo. Short wait times, even when there's a line. Heads-Up: Tables are very close, so it's not the best spot for a quiet, private conversation. Despite the cozy seating, the food is so good it's always worth it. A must-try!

Good place if you want fast served good Chinese food. The servers are very efficient. The restaurant is very busy and tables are very close to each other. But you know that when you walk in.

Solid if not spectacular. Dim sum platter for two is good, the sweet and sour chicken is decent. The highlight was definitely the peking duck pancakes, they use a roll similar to a malaysian paratha which is nice and flaky, very satifying bite. They refill your sweet chili which is nice. Be prepared to wait for a table here especially on busy days and hours, but it's a decent spot for the price in a great area

Mister Chen's teahouse is a unique blend of Chinese yam cha teahouses and Japanese Izakaya taverns, offering a mix of dim sum and hearty ramen in Amsterdam. Located near Oosterpark, the restaurant serves up delicious dishes that combine the best of Hong Kong and Tokyo cuisine. The menu features a fusion of Western influences with ingredients like wagyu in the gyoza. Despite its unassuming exterior, visitors are treated to friendly service and fresh, flavorful food.
Ramen was phenomenal and service fantastic. Ramen broth was beautifully full-bodied without being too rich/heavy, and the black sesame ice cream was heavenly. (We even loved the restaurant playlist.) Will definitely return!!

The service was painfully slow, we waited ages just to get someone to take our order, and even longer for the food to arrive. When it finally did, everything was cold and clearly not fresh. The quality of the food was shockingly bad. The chicken skewers, in particular, were the worst part, they smelled awful, like they had gone bad. We couldn’t even finish them. It was honestly disgusting.

Resturant has seating for about 20 people tables range in size from 2 people to six people. They have low tables and high top tables. We had tuna nigiri, pork gyoza, and wagyu beef dumplings. They were all okay. We also had the pork ramen. The soup broth had the look and consistency of chicken soup and not a thick, creamy pork bone broth, it was average.

Great food, some of the best dumplings I've ever had for the price. Also the tonkatsu ramen is to die for. Service is very welcoming, albeit a little slow at times. Covid is just officially "over" in the Netherlands, though, so I guess there's more staff normally. All in all a great and friendly location I'd always return to.

Ordered the iberico pork siu mai, maki and tonkatsu ramen. The siu mai was as close as you can get to the real thing. Pork was juicy. The maki rice was soft and flavourful. Tonkatsu ramen noodles was perfectly done. The only thing I didn’t like was the pork pieces. Not as soft as the ones you get in Japan. Otherwise everything else was great!

I’m pretty new to dumplings, only had a few orders in the past. The presentation was good on the mixed platter for two. Price is really fare and the food was delicious. The guy behind the counter was helpful and courteous. Enjoyed a cold N.A. Beer from the bar right across the way.

We had low expectations when we go to a dim sum place in Europe. But Dim Sum Ting was way below the European standards. The dumplings(as seen in photo) was broken, skin was thick, hard and sticky. It seems that it was factory made frozen dumplings. Taste bland too. 4 pieces of dumpling costs 7.50. Almost 2 euros for a piece of broken, sticky hard and bland dumpling, that’s day light robbery. We told the staff about the dumplings and they just brushed it off and said it was probably over cooked. Great comment for a stall that that sells almost 2 euros per dumpling. Very disappointing. Not recommended. Go somewhere else, please save your money and eat something else.

One of the most disappointing things I’ve eaten in a while. Thought the menu looked good, prices were expensive but that’s what you get for a trendy food market. Had to wait 20 minutes for 4 dumplings & 4 gyozas so I was expecting good things and really wanted to enjoy my food. It was just really poor, prawns were very ‘fishy’ and overcooked. Dumplings were okay but just not very good, what I would expect frozen from the supermarket. For €20 I was expecting much better things. I looked at the reviews after and seems I wasn’t the only one! Wouldn’t recommend.

Located in the very nice old tram storage hall, named ‘Foodhallen’, you will find just next to Kanarie Club ‘Dim Sum Thing’. I wouldn’t recommend anyone to go eat there. We took 6 dim sums, and that was clearly a joke. The price was 10 euros for 6 pieces and they were just basic and even the cheapest. It was unbelievably small, taste was nothing special and was so sticky to the plate you could not get it off, so it breaks into pieces. I have been to China and I tasted the real dim sums and this place is nothing like that. Take any other place to not ruin the nice experience of the Foodhallen!

Mr. Gyoza is a Japanese restaurant that specializes in serving homemade gyoza, a crescent-shaped dumpling with a crunchy pan-fried bottom. The menu offers a variety of fillings such as lamb kebab, forest mushrooms, smoked mackerel, and korma cauliflower. The atmosphere is described as beautiful and cute with great service and friendly staff. While the dining experience is relaxed, the food is served quickly.
This place is simply outstanding. I first came here a couple of years ago, and it amazed me then. Every time I’ve returned, it has only gotten better—tonight, I was completely blown away. The gyoza are perfection, the flavors bold yet perfectly balanced, and the cocktails absolutely incredible. Every bite is an experience, and you can truly feel the passion behind every dish. The owner is a genius, and the consistency in quality over the years is remarkable. The whole team makes you feel incredibly welcome, and the atmosphere is superb. I really, really love this place and can't recommend it enough—five stars aren’t nearly enough! If you’re a fan of great food, this is a must-visit.

A great spot to visit with friends. You can order different dishes to share, making it easy to try several options. However, vegetarian choices are limited—the mushroom dish was delicious, but the black bean option lacked flavor. The drinks are the highlight, each served with impressive presentation—think smoke, unique glasses, and even lights. Depending on what you order, it's an entertaining experience. The atmosphere is nice, but sitting on the balcony can make it hard to interact if you're with a larger group. The prices are quite high for the area, and the portions don’t quite justify the cost.

Don't let the individual menu prices put you off - portions are designed for sharing and excellent value. The eggplant and sweet tofu easily fed four of us with two bowls of fried rice. The eggplant was beautifully soft and silky. We wanted to try the coconut rabbit pudding but it was sold out, so settled for spicy ice cream instead. This isn't a place for solo dining - come with a group and order family-style for the best experience and value.

You can’t imagine how many times I’ve been to Fulu! It’s honestly one of my go to spots, and I’ve tried most of the menu by now. My absolute favorite appetizer , without a doubt is the cold boiled sliced pork belly with garlic sauce. I can’t even sit at a table there without starting with it! I always ask for extra smashed garlic on the side, because that little kick just makes it perfect. One thing I really like about Fulu is how presentable the dishes are. Some of them even come with dry ice and a smoke effect, which makes the whole experience feel a bit extra in a fun way. Portions are huge, and prices are fair considering what you get. The steamed fish is outstanding, and honestly most of their seafood dishes never disappoint. It’s the kind of place where you can try something different every time and still walk out satisfied. Service-wise, the staff are friendly, but because the restaurant is usually packed, they sometimes seem a little distracted. It’s understandable though, and overall the service is more than okay. But when the place is packed , you feel you are eating with the other guests on the same table, and the noise is high specially when there is big groups on big tables! And that affect the atmosphere a lot.. and just as an advice for the managers, please be sure that the wooden corners next to the tables are wiped frequently, since in most of my visits it was really dusty, and i even showed it to the supervisors several times ! For me, Fulu isn’t just a restaurant !! it’s my spot for celebrations. Most of my special occasions have been spent here, and that says a lot 🥰 I’ve added some of the photos I took during my 92737292 visits, so you guys can get a better idea and maybe it helps you choose more easily from their biiig menu, hahaha!

The restaurant’s menu explicitly said water is refilled for free if you order a drink, and that’s what we asked for when we added a beverage to the order. The bill comes back with a charge for hot water, when we explicitly asked for a free water refill for the beverage. The hot water costs €2.5 so it’s a small amount since we spent over €80 on ordering food, but this additional charge for hot water and refused to take it off the bill (staff repeatedly says since we have 2 people and only one ordered drink) makes me feel I was forced to pay for something I didn’t order and the restaurant being really cheap and just push its own mistake onto its customer.

Sichuan Food is a renowned restaurant in Amsterdam that offers a delectable array of spicy Sichuan dishes and Peking duck prepared in three different ways. The establishment draws inspiration from Italian and Japanese culinary elements, resulting in a fusion of flavors. This restaurant stands out for its innovative Thai-fusion concept, incorporating cooking techniques from various Asian regions such as Malay, Thai, Vietnamese, Chinese, and Japanese.
This Chinese restaurant, located on one of the most popular streets in Amsterdam, has become our favorite spot for Peking Duck. They have three-course Peking Duck dinner. It starts with the duck pancakes, (my favourite) followed by a duck soup, and then finishes with three different main dishes, all made from duck. I also highly recommend trying their special soup. The service is pleasant, and there's a terrace that's perfect for dining during the warmer months. It's a wonderful place to enjoy a meal in such a vibrant area. They also offer a good selection of wines, which pairs well with the dishes. For anyone who loves Peking Duck, this is a must-try.

The food is super authentic and delicious (source: I’m Asian). It’s called Sichuan Food but like some other reviewers said, it’s more Cantonese cuisine with some smattering of Sichuan dishes. We enjoyed everything we ordered. The hot and sour soup is great, I drank every last drop. The scallops and seafood in clay pot were also standout. The surprising star was the fried banana dessert we had. The batter was so crispy and light, it was a great ending. We saw the Peking duck being prepared and served, and it looks amazing. We would love to come back to try this next time.

If you’re gonna call yourself a Japanese restaurant you should learn how to make Japanese food. Gyozas were soggy, sushi tasted like albert heijn’s sushi, and the crispy fried rice were overcooked that it was so hard and unpleasant for the teeth. i would give this place a 2/10 for the nice service of the staff (they gave me a new portion of the fried rice because the old one was too hard to eat), but the food is just not Japanese.

A solid Japanese tapas-style restaurant, but not the best choice for a full dinner. We ordered the edamame, chicken katsu, bao buns, and sushi.

The food is really delicious and looks nice. The Restaurant has a big selektion of different small dishes, so that you can order a bit of everything. It is a really good place to go to as a group, because you can share all the dishes. We sat outside and when it got a bit windy the waitress gave us blankets. The people working there are really nice.

Great dinner! Even if they tell you they're fully booked, you have the option to walk in and check. Friendly staff, quick, efficient and smiling. They have a good menu with different Japanese dishes.

We said that we wanted 6 Heineken beers and the bartender gave us 6 more expensive Amstels and then said that he heard we just wanted normal beers. Not recommended.
Szymon W — Google review
The rudest and most ill-tempered woman I have ever seen in my life was here. My friends and I came, ordered the most expensive beer there, and had a conversation. One of my friends left, other friends arrived, and we all ordered drinks. Later, when my friends went to the restroom, this arrogant employee brought me the bill. Having spent a large part of my life in Germany and traveled through many cities, I have never encountered such a rude and disrespectful person before. I was truly shocked. She told me that we had only ordered two drinks, had been sitting there for two hours, and that this was not normal—when in reality, each of us had a drink, making it four in total. When my friend finished her Aperol and went to the restroom, we were about to leave anyway. However, while my friend was still in the restroom, the employee insisted that I pay. I said I would wait, and when she asked why, I told her I didn’t have enough money with me—of course, I actually had 30 euros, as I’m on a European tour. In my shock, this was the only thing that came to mind. Because I have to wait my friends she said me pay now, we kept arguing, and I responded with laughter because she was a pathetic person. In the end, she even started touching me, clearly losing her temper at my sarcastic attitude. As I was leaving, she told me, “If you don’t have money, don’t travel,” and I laughed the hardest at that moment. I absolutely do not recommend this place. I experienced something truly unique, something that will probably never happen again. Do not give your money to people like this. I would never recommend it!

Miri Mary Indian Restaurant in Amsterdam's de Pijp neighborhood offers a modern twist on traditional Indian cuisine. The menu features hearty comfort food with an Asian influence, such as the Goan masala omelette stuffed with goat cheese and served in spiced coconut sauce. The restaurant also serves crowd favorites like butter chicken benny and traditional Indian chickpea breakfast stew with buttered naan, yogurt, and pickled chili.
Exceptional food. Very creative takes of food. Blending in Indian subcontinental flavors into standard western breakfast fare. You gotta make me. Everything was done well from the pickled beats to the potato fritters had good concepts and well balanced thought to each dish. Flavors were balanced. Portion sizes were great. Would highly recommend coming here.

We opted for Chef's Menu and it was not worth the price! I think we should have selected the dishes from regular menu as we would have got better dishes for similar price. Anyway, that's our mistake as the host had let us know the dishes within the Chef's menu. The reason for 3 star rating are - 1. For this class of restaurant, I would expect certain level of service which includes changing of dishes after every course. Do you really expect us to eat main course in a dish which was already dirty from prior course? The taste would mixup if we eat main course in the same dish. 2. The dishes are really small (marked in the image). The size of dish is good for starter but not for main course. How do you expect one to eat Naan and veggie or curry in the same dish? As an Indian you would certainly know how we eat bread and rice with curry or sabzi. 3. The dishes served were shareables. If you do not provide serving spoon with the dishes, how do you expect us to serve it in our plates? Should we all dip the Naan in the same bowl and eat? That's unhygienic! Again, for the class of restaurant, we shouldn't be asking for spoons and dishes. 4. We were 5 of us for dinner and were surprised that splitting of checks was not allowed. I completely understand that splitting by 5 could be a problem but splitting by 2 is very common practice. The food tasted well. But overall service didnt live up to the rating standards. I was very excited to bring my colleagues from US for dinner at a good Indian restaurant (per google rating) but everyone was disappointed by the quality of service. It feels bad when people say to you that food is good but wouldn't come next time. I really hope that quality of service improves!!!

By far one of the best meals we’ve had on our trip! We got the Chef’s menu with cocktail pairing. It was a shared menu, and came with an appetizer, entree, and dessert. Which all came with a paired cocktail. The food was amazing and the drinks were made to perfection! As dessert came out, our waiter came out with Miri Mary tote bags to bring home. From start to finish it was an absolute pleasure to be there! Definitely a must if you’re in the area!

Great food…pretty authentic from the starter to the desserts. The paneer, butter chicken, dhal, caramelised pineapple etc are super good. The naan is gorgeous even on its own. We (group of 7) enjoyed the food very much. There is option for vegetarian. Not forgetting the great service. Thank you and will definitely return.

Cozy place, nice staff, fast service, didn't have to wait long. Delicious Turkish cuisine, received a "compliment" from the establishment, which was very nice. The portions are quite large for a fairly low price, for a family of five we spent 100 euros, and we left some food, because there was no room in our stomach to eat everything) There is a children's menu.

There are meals that flirt with you, bat their eyelashes, maybe buy you a drink. And then there are meals that grab you by the collar, whisper something filthy in your ear, and leave you questioning every moral, dietary, and romantic decision you’ve ever made. Florya, a floating joint on the water in Amsterdam, is absolutely the latter. The meat didn’t just “fall apart.” No, it swan-dove into oblivion, breaking up gracefully in my mouth like it had been rehearsing its death scene for years. The sauce? Some family secret probably handed down in a dimly lit kitchen with everyone swearing loyalty oaths, maybe a knife on the table, no one making eye contact. The restaurant itself sways just enough to make you wonder: am I drunk? In love? Or just delirious from eating something so good my brain’s short-circuiting? It feels like eating on cloud nine — if cloud nine came with enough plates to feed a small army. There was so much food we actually had to take breaks. Real breaks. Picture me in the corner like a washed-up boxer: towel over the head, water bottle in hand, while the next course comes at me like Tyson in his prime. The service? Doesn’t matter. They spoke some English, but the real language was food — and they’re goddamn poets. Each bite a masterclass in comfort, hospitality, and the kind of generosity that makes borders feel imaginary. Traveling with my buddies, bouncing from city to city, you start to realize culture isn’t just in museums or postcards. It’s in the plates that land in front of you, in the way strangers insist you eat more, drink more, laugh more. Florya was all of that. The kind of meal that doesn’t just fill you up, but wrecks you beautifully, the way only great food in a strange city can.

Dumplings are a delightful culinary treasure that you simply must experience when exploring Amsterdam's vibrant food scene. This charming city offers an array of dumpling options, from traditional dim sum to creative twists that will tantalize your taste buds. Picture yourself savoring steaming baskets of xiaolongbao or crispy pan-fried gyoza at various cozy eateries and kiosks scattered throughout the city.
Lucky that we came during relatively quiet time, so only had to queue for 10 minutes. The service was efficient and the menus are available in dutch, english, and mandarin. We ordered pan-fried pork dumpling and peking duck crepes, and had to wait less than 10 minutes before our meals were ready. The dumplings have perfect thickness, a bit of crunch on the outside and not doughy. The pork filling is generous, but taste just alright. The crepe is huge, enough for two persons. Love the combination of flavours and textures from crispy cracker, soft wrapping, cabbages, and tasty duck meat. Highly recommend to eat them with their cili oil! A perfect snack to continue our trip in Amsterdam!

Favorites include the savory pancake, steamed and fried savory and vegetarian dumpling, bao bun, and the portion of the fried rice and fried noodles will leave you so satisfied.

Love it 100%. Staff is very friendly and food was amazing. I wouldn’t even minding traveling from the other side of Amsterdam to get jianbing. This is for sure the best in the Netherlands.

Mediocre food at best. I got half a kilo of rice with barely any vegetables, just a lot of greasy rice. I can’t eat it, it’s plain and greasy 😢 And I ordered noodles, to start with. They did not explain properly that they are out of the noodles, guy’s English makes it very difficult to understand what he says and he clearly did not understand me. Maybe I would have had a better luck if I spoke Dutch but I assumed English was easier for them (maybe my mistake).

Kim's So Korean Food is located in a side street off Zeedijk, known for its Asian cuisine. Situated in a small alley in the Wallen area, it offers an ideal spot for enjoying Korean food with friends from lunchtime until late. The restaurant provides a wide variety of choices and has attentive staff who are happy to assist with cooking the Korean BBQ and offer menu recommendations. Customers have praised the delicious soy and garlic chicken as well as the chicken and vegetable dumplings.
I visited Kim’s So Korean Food Centrum for lunch, and it was an excellent experience from start to finish. The food was flavorful, freshly prepared, and really captured the essence of authentic Korean cuisine. The portions were generous, and each dish had that balance of rich seasoning and freshness that makes Korean food so enjoyable. You can tell a lot of care goes into the preparation, and it definitely stood out compared to other places I’ve tried. The highlight for me was how well everything came together on the table; the main dish was hearty and satisfying, while the side dishes added variety and made the meal feel complete. The flavors were bold yet balanced, not overly spicy but still carrying that signature kick you’d expect from good Korean cooking. It was comforting, filling, and delicious all at once. The service was just as impressive as the food. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and attentive without being overbearing. Even though it was during a busy lunch hour, the atmosphere stayed relaxed and pleasant, which made it easy to sit back and enjoy the experience. The restaurant itself has a warm and casual vibe. It feels inviting whether you’re coming in for a quick meal or planning to stay a bit longer with friends. The décor and music add to the cozy atmosphere, making it the kind of place you’d want to return to regularly. Overall, Kim’s So Korean Food Centrum is a fantastic spot for anyone craving authentic and satisfying Korean food in the heart of the city. The combination of delicious dishes, kind service, and a comfortable atmosphere made my lunch here a really enjoyable experience. I’ll definitely be coming back and would recommend it to anyone who wants to try proper Korean food in Amsterdam.

I really enjoyed the atmosphere! The place feels genuinely Korean, and unlike many other Korean spots in Amsterdam, this one offers truly authentic dishes, all of which were delicious: tteokbokki, mandoo, dumplings, bingsu, and most importantly, the makgeolli (sparkling rice wine) in various flavors like banana, peach, and more. The food was excellent and the service was fast. I especially liked the tartare with egg, and their bingsu was actually better than what I've had in many places in Korea. The only thing I would improve is the Korean fried chicken, it wasn't quite to my taste (not too crispy). Overall, I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a truly authentic Korean experience in Amsterdam.

Arguably overpriced gyoza but it’s very tasty & unique so I think the flavors are worth the price. You won’t get some of their gyoza combinations anywhere else. We loved the middle one so much that we got a second order! (in photo- ask a waiter which it is because I forget)

I liked the place, I give it 4.5 out of 5. There wasn't enough variety in the appetizers. We ordered geza, ramen, and cucumbers. The sake was also great, but make sure to check the alcohol content on the packaging, as the menu listed 12% alcohol, but the bottle indicated 15%. The yuzu mochi was also excellent, but I didn't like the yuzu drink, as it felt diluted. It was also strange that they refused to make matcha for me in the evening.

If possible I'd rate this place 4.5/5 but it fell closer to a 4 than a 5 for me. The miso ramen was good but the tofu was too salty and the texture was a bit odd. I also found it odd to offer only "eco" tap water for 2€. Eco tap water can be an option, but so should free tap water (?). The service was amazing however, so kind and helpful!

Very nice place They are focusing on few dishes which is very good ideas. The steam bun(not sure can I call like this 😬) which offer you 3 options and you can order mix & match too, so we tried all. I would love to say the meat version would be the best and just the skin a bit too thick so it would be not easy to chew once the temperature get not very warm. Another starter is also great ! We didnt order main as portion are pretty big, but we took dessert which is wonderful !!!!!!!! You can skip all dishes but not the dessert. Staffs are very friendly and patient to introduce all.

We ended up swapping plates and both enjoyed our late lunch. The duck in white wine was tender on the inside with a crispy crust on the outside. The mushroom starter with cheese was absolutely delicious, and the potato fries tasted like oven-baked potatoes in foil with a heap of salt — loved it! The dessert deserves special mention: warm pastry filled with jam and whole berries, topped with ice cream and whipped cream. Prices were reasonable, just under €50 per person. We visited on a Saturday afternoon without a reservation, and the waitress still gave us the best table by the window. I’ll definitely come back to try more dishes.

I found this restaurant quite pricey and with tiny portions. Which is not like in Georgia at all 😌For 2 people, we spent around €150 and left hungry, which is a bit unusual for a Georgian restaurant and having had starters and main dishes each. The interior feels simple, and the service could be improved. For example, after eating a starter, we were expected to leave our dirty cutlery on the table without receiving new ones for the main course—which felt unacceptable considering the price. Some dishes also felt a little light for the price; for instance, the duck comes without a garnish. Overall, the experience didn’t quite match the cost for me. I think with a few small adjustments in service and portioning, it could feel more in line with the price.

Khinkali were nice and the khachapuri was also good. Unfortunately the overall experience was disappointing. The air inside was super hot and oily, and the waiters kept ignoring us. When we got a second round of food they didn’t even change our plates. The wine was served warm and we weren’t offered a taste or any explanation. The last main dish was described as “for those who like tarragon,” but it turned out to be so unpleasant we couldn’t eat it. No one checked in at the end to see if we liked the food. Good flavors for some dishes, but the service and atmosphere need serious improvement.

Korean restaurant
Bar
Hongdae Amsterdam is a Korean restaurant located in the vibrant heart of Amsterdam. The menu features a variety of Korean street food, including delectable mandu dumplings available in both deep-fried and steamed options with chicken or vegetable fillings. While some patrons were disappointed by the Tteobokki, others enjoyed the fresh hotdog and found it to be a nice place to hang out with friends for Korean soju and beer.
We cruised past a lot of menu boards on the street before choosing to eat here. One of our favourite restaurants back home in Canada is a Korean Chicken place, plus we spent 3 days in Seoul last fall and so it was an easy decision to check this place out. Our food arrived quickly and the server recommended the new beer they were carrying for Amsterdam’s 750th. The glasses are only 250ml which is smaller than we’re used to and expecting for beer, but it was really good. The boneless chicken (smaller size) came with a small salad and pickled radish. It was ample for two people when combined with corn cheese, more pickled radishes, and chicken dumplings. We thoroughly enjoyed the meal!

What a nice restaurant! We had a little bit of everything and shared among us which was what the waiter suggested us to. I can’t remember the names of all the dishes but we had the chicken, dumplings, fried rice, kimchi, french fries etc. We also went for the beer/jinro package who’s was a great combo. We are very happy with our choice of restaurant. The fact that it all summed up to app. 100EUR for the three of us makes it very affordable as well.

I always love coming to this place. The food tastes absolutely delicious, fresh and authentic! The bulgogi fried are a musttttt try!!!! It tastes bomb! The soup garlic fried chicken and the parmesan fried chicken were also super delicious and crispy. The corndog was also super tasty! Loved the crispy and cheesy combo! The staff are also nice and they have a big space. Although I recommend reservation.

We came here as a group of four and left very happy! The food is impressively authentic — as close as it gets to what you’d find in Korea. They even serve makgeolli, which is quite rare to find in Amsterdam. I really liked their bingsu and can definitely recommend saving some space for this traditional Korean dessert — though that might be difficult, since the rest of the food is also excellent. We tried almost all the starters; the corn with cheese was a bit ordinary (it’s just corn with cheese, after all), but everything else was great. For the chicken, we preferred the traditional sauce slightly more than the soy and ginger one, but both were good. Kimbap was super good and full of ingredients. Service was fast and attentive. I would only improve the atmosphere: it felt too simple, I would make it a bit cozier. Overall, highly recommended!

What a weird experience in this Bar! I was there with four colleagues and ordered a Limoncello Spritz. After I tried the drink I noticed that there was an artificial lemon taste with a weird aftertaste. My colleague tried too and confirmed it had an artificial taste. After giving the drink back to the bartender, he tried the drink from my already used glass and kept insisting it is tasting like it should and that they cannot reimburse me for that or give me a new drink. They said I can get the drink back but after they tried and it was not tasting any good I said no. After getting back to the table we saw that he went around and let two other people try and then he finished the drink behind the bar. This never happened to me before and I hope it will never happen to everyone else again. Hope he enjoyed his free drink 😅 as they still put it on the tab.

The bar is nice for beers, but cocktails are not their highlight. We ordered few pornstar martinis and an espresso martini and neither weger good. Pornstar martini was missing a passion fruit and a prosecco shot. When we asked the bartender about it, he said he would fix it and never did sadly.

Cute, cozy spot for Taiwanese comfort food and bubble teas. I liked the little tables and chairs, the simple and minimalist plate wear the food was served on, and the cat logo of course 😸 I had the braised pork noodles with a side of chili crisp oil and marinated egg. It was tasty and easy. Egg was perfectly cooked. I also had the classic scallion pancake. Wasn’t too impressed with that one … would’ve preferred it to be more crispy, as it was more on the soft/soggy side. Would’ve really loved to have a bowl of Taiwanese beef noodle soup - but there weren’t any soup options at the time. Easy to order, just sit down anywhere and scan the QR code to place the order. Merch was cute, too. I picked up two retro postcards and two cat stickers.

Let me start by saying, we will come back. Mostly to try different things, but also that some elements really captivated us, while others had room for improvement. SERVICE + Ordering inside with QR-code at the table. + Nice attention in bringing the Food and Beverages and clearing the table. DECOR & ATMOSPHERE + Very nice elements. not too white. + I like the couch, upstairs, and also the wooden chairs with the very clean green metal frame. + Tables are clean, with enough space to enjoy your food, but at the same time cozy. + The posters on the wall with some food or drinks on it are quite nice. + Nice playlist put together. + The lights on the wall are smooth. +- The spotlights on the ceiling do not match with the rest of the decor in my opinion. FOOD & BEVERAGES ~Garden Veggie Scallion Pancake~ + Very tasty in the pancake area. + Fresh, crispy, yet a little airy inside. - The layer of egg inside didn't have any flavor. At least add some salt and white pepper. +- The Avocado could be a little boring. Maybe a little pinch of Ground Black Pepper would elevate it. Rating -> 4/5 ~Boiled Marinated Egg~ +- My preference would be cooked how it looks like on the picture. more silky inside. - Quite boring, but of course it is a simple side dish. Rating -> 2/5 ~Sesame Tofu~ + Perfect balance in flavors. + While I regularly do not enjoy pickled mustard greens, it was a very nice addition on the tofu. + Try to add a little Kimlan soy sauce with this, it would enhance this dish. +- I would have liked the peanuts crushed in it, but that is a personal preference. The peanuts can be a little big in the bite when you work with soft food like this. Rating -> 5/5 ~Lu Rou Fan~ + The flavor is spot-on. - The pork was slightly cold. - The rice was overcooked. +- Personal preference would be that the pork was braised longer. A little softer would be nice and a little more sauce, thickened would elevate this dish. +- 1 leaf of Pak Choy to give some color in the bowl is kind of mweh. Rating -> 2/5 ~Mango Almond Pudding~ + The flavor is silky, well balanced and very light to enjoy after a meal. + The almond flavor is almost not there, so even for people that do not enjoy almonds, this would be a very nice finish to a pleasant meal. Rating -> 5/5 ~Oolong Tea Fluffy Cheesecake~ This cheesecake is a baked cheesecake. + The Oolong Tea flavor comes across very light. - The heaviness of the cream cheese can be too much on the front. - It is not fluffy, but very layered, almost like the idea of eating 'Spekkoek'. Rating -> 3/5 We also had the Brown Sugar Boba Milk and the Tie Guan Yin Oolong Bubble Tea. These were both a 5/5. Very well balanced, we liked it that you really can enjoy the Brown Sugar without the heavy amounts of Fructose, like in many stores. All with all a nice experience. We would come back for sure to try new things. Thank you for having us.

Came here twice during a 1 week trip in Amsterdam. The first was because we were craving Asian flavors after being without for 3 weeks. Had gua bao (pork belly and veg)a rice bowl, and a soy milk drink the first time. Service was good. Food was not bad. Flavors were all there. My husband didn’t really enjoy the rice bowl. I enjoyed the baos though! The 2nd time - service was worse. No pork belly at all (so no bao that I was craving). Which was okay. I ordered something else and a matcha latte. The matcha latte and the service I got after was terrible. I told the waitress that the matcha latte just taste like milk, no matcha. She had a confused irritated look on her face and was like really? It’s like she didn’t believe me and my taste. She then was like we usually don’t do anything because it’s powder so we can’t fix it? And that was weird because usually you just add more powder no? She decided to fix it for me and said more powder and milk was added. Unfortunately, it tasted the same - only like milk. I would’ve been fine if she was at least apologetic. I looked at past pictures of matcha latte here and it looks nothing like what I got. You can see from the photo that it’s a very light green - just by looking at it, I can tell it will be bland.

highly recommend the scallion omelette classic (i think this was what it was called on the menu). it was soooo yummy! the textures were amazing and the sauce was a perfect pairing! the boba was also really yummy, but there were a lot of tapioca pearls (perfect if you enjoy that though). my friend had the chicken bao that she enjoyed lots, the bun was a perfect balance of soft and firm!!

If you're on the hunt for a delightful culinary experience, look no further than Nanxiang Soup Dumplings (南翔小笼包). This charming dumpling house, located conveniently across from Marie Heinekenplein, specializes in these delectable Shanghai-style dumplings. Each order of xiao long bao is steamed to perfection in traditional bamboo baskets and features a delicate, translucent skin that encases either savory pork or crab filling.
I had an amazing experience at Nanxiang Soup Dumplings. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting.

Today, we were hungry and passing by when we spotted this place and decided to give it a try. We ordered the pork belly and dumplings — the pork belly was absolutely delicious, soft and flavorful. The dumplings (we had them steamed) were okay, though for my taste they could have used a little more salt. Overall, the food was good. Prices felt a bit high, but I’m starting to realize Amsterdam isn’t the cheapest place to eat. The staff were really nice and friendly, but the service was quite slow since it seemed to be just the cook and one person handling everything else. Not sure if it’s always just two people or if they were understaffed that day. All in all, we’d definitely stop by again if we happened to pass through.

The place was empty on Thursday evening, but we decided to trust the Google reviews and give it a try. I don’t regret it. The fish soup/ramen was excellent: very flavorful with a generous amount of fish. I also enjoyed the steamed dumplings. The beef ramen, however, could have been better. It was extremely salty and quite simple: just an overly spicy and salty broth, ramen, and chunks of beef. Compared to the fish soup, it lacked depth and variety of ingredients. Another downside was the interior. The place felt plain and a bit neglected, and it didn’t give off a clean or fresh impression (even though I didn’t see any visible trash). The table was slightly sticky, and the bathroom floor was too, which raised some hygiene concerns. We didn’t experience any stomach issues afterwards, but overall, I wouldn’t come back despite enjoying parts of the meal.

I’ve passed by this restaurant many times but never had the chance to stop in until now, and I’m so glad I finally did. The food was absolutely amazing! The classic xiaolongbao is probably the closest you’ll find to the authentic taste you get in China, Taiwan, or Hong Kong. The meat filling was perfectly seasoned without any gaminess porky taste, and the moment you bite into the dumpling, the rich, savoury broth bursts out truly sensational. On top of that, the service was excellent. The waiter was attentive and made the experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommended for any dumpling lover!

Overall, the atmosphere and the service of the restaurant were amazing. As a person who’s quite picky with customer service, I was very satisfied; the waiter was very friendly and welcoming. As for the food, the pork soup dumplings tasted really close to the ones I had in China. The pork dumplings were up to standard, but if you were to order the pork soup dumplings, I could go without them. However, I would skip the scallion pancakes because they were a bit too thin for my taste. The service and ambience were great though, perfect for a late-night meal. I only took one photo which was the soup dumplings because we were hungry.

Nestled within the Amsterdam Museum, Jinweide Lanzhou Beef Noodles offers a delightful culinary experience that transports you straight to the heart of China. This eatery specializes in hand-pulled noodles, allowing diners to witness skilled chefs crafting their meals right before their eyes. You can choose from various noodle thicknesses, making each dish customizable to your liking. The menu boasts an array of options, including spicy cold noodles and hearty beef noodle soup.
It was our first time visiting this place, which is known for their hand-pulled noodles. They have halal certification, which is great for people who only eat halal. You can choose the thickness of your noodles, and of course, I went for the thickest option. The noodles were absolutely delicious and had a great texture and flavor. I left feeling satisfied and refreshed. A nice bonus: they serve a complimentary egg and salad on the side, which was a light and refreshing addition to the meal. I also tried their coconut drink, and with this hot weather, it has quickly become my new addiction! Just a small note: it’s a self-service restaurant, so keep that in mind when you visit.

Perfectly chewy, flavorful, and so satisfying. Also, so cool you can actually ask for a noodle refill. Everything was delicious and each soup was served with an egg and a salad, which honestly was perfect combo with the noodle soup. The staff was also very welcoming and nice!

My family and I visited this restaurant excited to try their beef noodles, as we were new to the place. The staff member who took our order was very polite and offered helpful suggestions, especially considering we had our 4-year-old toddler with us. We ordered two types of braised beef noodle soup bowls for ourselves and a stir-fry noodle dish for our toddler, which was recommended as non-spicy. Unfortunately, the experience fell short. My braised beef noodle bowl was disappointing—I didn’t enjoy the taste and left it untouched. The stir-fry noodles for our toddler turned out to be extremely spicy, which we thankfully noticed before she tried it. I ended up eating it myself, but it was overly oily. My partner’s braised beef noodle bowl was decent and not spicy, so she shared it with our toddler. On a positive note, the side dishes were satisfactory but lacked strong flavors. Overall, this restaurant wasn’t the right fit for us, and we likely won’t return.

I went to this restaurant last weekend with my friends (the first week of October 2025). Overall, the food tasted delicious. I especially love the free salad they provide. They also have a halal certification until November 2025 (the certification paper was posted at the entrance door), so I assume they renew it annually. Make sure to check their halal status renewal if you plan to visit after November 2025.

Overall it was nice experience, i’ve got braised beef noodles soup and was able to take 1 plate with salad and 1 egg, salad was nice but i wish they have cucumbers and tree mushrooms. Soup portion was huge with veggies and nice beed, however the broth wasn’t strong enough and some flavor was missing, i’ve added some oil but still. Another thing is that all windows were open which is not really good especially when the weather is cold. Noodles for soup itself were nice, i choose wide flat ones

I come here often, best time to come is on a weekday before lunch time so the place is going to be emptier and quieter. I really like their soups and they handmade their noodles!! I like to order not spicy so i can add the spicy oil myself. Service is simple and quick, people is polite.

So this is absolutely my favorite Chinese restaurant in Amsterdam… maybe the best Asian food ever we had in Europe so far. Super authentic northern western hand pulled noodles, certified halal, the chef is from Lanzhou and that place KNOWs their noodles. Some dishes have a good authentic kick to them fyi if you don’t eat spice - but there are non spicy dishes too like the egg and tomato. Loved the chili oil noodles 油泼面 - get the wide flat ones if you want authentic, and the stir fried noodles 牛肉拉条are amazing too (both spicy). Oh and for each dish you get free side dishes and a tea egg - soooo homey tasting. Also best braised beef noodle soup in town (spicy)红烧牛肉. I honestly did not expect this high quality of Chinese food in this city and would recommend to all my friends.

We visited this place as part of our Amsterdam food tour. When we arrived there, the restaurant was closed (it opens at 5PM) and the owner promised we would have a pint on him if we came back later. When we came back, we mentioned this but it did not happen. We ordered a plate of butterball which was good, but not so great to justify the food. The Dutch fries looked like standards french fries you could get from American fast-food for much less. We eventually got a discount for our City Card but, to be fair, I was not so impressed with the food.

Tried this Sichuan-style bapao today and wow — the flavor slaps. The bun is super soft and fluffy, and the filling hits you with that perfect mix of chili heat and numbing Sichuan pepper. 🥵🌶️ It’s got that deep, rich spice that builds up but still lets you taste all the garlicky, savory goodness inside. Kinda addictive, not gonna lie. 😋

I really enjoyed the vegetable pancake because it was flavourful with the umami, sichuan peppers and chilis. It’s not spicy if anyone is wondering😅 I liked the soup a lot less because the broth didn’t have a taste, I think they forgot to add the flavor since they just opened when I ordered. The wontons were yummy tho, freshly made as well. I got my food within 10-15mins of ordering so it wasn’t so bad. Especially because they cooked it on the spot. I sat inside with a small stool and used the bank as a table, so it might not be very comfortable for most. And there was no fan, so it turned out very hot inside. I will come back to this place definitely!

Today, I found a “stone” in my bao. I was told it was a peppercorn, but to my knowledge, peppercorns are round, not triangular in shape. It was very hard to bite into, and it slightly hurt my tooth. I was also told that if I bit it, it would “explode” because it was a peppercorn—but nothing happened when I tried, which made me think it might actually have been a stone. I didn’t proceed trying as I don’t want to break my teeth. Additionally, yesterday I ordered two chicken baos and one pork bao. Today, I placed the same order, but the fillings seemed to have been swapped—the one that was pork yesterday became chicken today, and vice versa. As a result, I couldn’t tell which flavor I ended up eating. This could be a serious issue for someone who avoids pork and specifically requests chicken, but then receives the wrong filling.

I am absolutely obsessed with this place now… I came here this afternoon for the first time, and I got the wonton soup. It was absolutely amazing, lots of flavor!! The guys working there were also really kind! I will definitely be coming back.

Dumpling restaurant
At YanYan | Fly by dumpling house, a delightful eatery run by three cousins, you'll discover a treasure trove of jiaozi that pays homage to their family matriarch. This charming spot specializes in handmade dumplings, expertly steamed or pan-fried to perfection with a crispy lace skirt.
The owner was very welcoming. He gave us tips on things to visit in Amsterdam. The damplings were amazing, juicy and tasty! And for an affordable price. I truly recommend!

Very nice, cozy place to get some dumplings. decently priced too so i really enjoyed it but i have definitely had tried better dumplings before. The ice tea was amazing though. Super flavorful and not too sweet. The spot is definitely worth a try. Super friendly staff as well so would recommend!.

Really cute dumpling house with great design! My dumpling was beyond delicious. It was my first time, definetely will not be the last time! ☺️

What an absolute gem in the neighborhood! This lovely dumpling house has everything a Chinese dumpling enthusiast could ask for. The food is incredible, first time I had it was via a delivery and was surprised at how good the dumplings were (let’s be honest, the fact they survived the delivery was impressive enough). This time I decided to visit over lunch and they were even better! Had the poached egg drop soup which was just perfect for a chilly winter day, then tried the pan-fried pork and chives dumplings with some Asian veggies and their home-made chili oil (absolute perfection - definitely try it if you enjoy a little heat). Everything was extremely fresh and tasty! The service was impeccable, so friendly and attentive. Enjoyed discussing Asian food and local food culture with the owner, who made sure to check in and ask if I enjoyed the food. I’ll definitely be back and bring friends with me! It’s a must-visit spot for any foodie who enjoys Asian cuisines.

Wow, I was not expecting this level of quality and service when I visited YanYan for a casual lunch. I had the egg drop soup, hang over bowl, and the pork dumplings. The taste of the rice is something else. The service and location is 5/5 as well. A beautiful modern decoration, couple of tables with a nice vibe, enough to enjoy lunch. Recommendations and food explanations were really detailed and welcomed. This is definitely a new favourite in the neighborhood.

There are better places along the street. I was disappointed with the price. The food is decent but does not worth the cost I believe. Just changing the sides from patato to vegetables is 2 €, and a basic vinegar sauce is 1.9€.

Nothing compared to warm dumplings in winter time. Great food, great service. Highly recommended.

BAO-BAE is a new and exciting hotspot in De Pijp, offering a unique way to enjoy dining out by providing takeout and delivery options. The menu features delicious bao buns, Asian curry, and delectable dumplings. Customers rave about the mouthwatering miso-eggplant, tofu-BAO, kimchi gyoza, and fried chicken bao. While some find it a bit pricey, the quality of the food makes it worth it.
The miso-eggplant was to die for! Loved the tofu-BAO and the kimchi gyoza, too! Will be surely back

I had one of the green bowls. It was fine, nothing exciting. It had a little too much (well cooked) grain and too little veggies. Really just a quick and healthyish eat.
