Nice and central location. The restaurant had an airy feel with high ceilings and the ambience was nice. The menu was varied and service very good. A solid mid level restaurant which was, for us, a great pick.

Cote de Bouef for two was chewy and gristly. Wouldn’t order again. Apple crumble dessert was disappointing and not what we expected as it was more of a pudding with crumbs on top than a “crumble.”. Food menu is too limited. Service and wine choices were excellent. Location is beautiful and the hotel is charming. Will try again as have eaten there twice before on other visits to Amsterdam and loved it.
