Amici in Burgwallen-Nieuwe Zijde

We went here because there wasn’t much around the area and it was near where we were staying. Upon arrival we were told it was buffet that night and we couldn’t order a la carte. We probably should have checked the buffet before agreeing but we were hungry and tired and there wasn’t much else nearby. The buffet was expensive, €25 a person. For what we paid it was pathetic. Here were the options: - buns with butter - small, relatively basic salad bar with a pasta salad, what looked like Greek salad, maybe egg salad, a few other things I couldn’t tell what they were, maybe salmon salad?, and then greens/veg with some dressing options - a vegetable soup of some kind - fried potato/tater tot things with no ketchup or mayo to be seen - steamed/boiled carrots and peas, tasted like what happens when you steam/boil a bag of frozen veggies and do nothing else with them - steamed broccoli, also without seasoning - plain white rice - some sort of fish steamed or baked in a whitish/yellow sauce (I don’t eat fish so I didn’t try it) - meatballs We were told everything would have labels to tell us what it was. That was not the case. The meatball tray had like 3 meatballs left on it when we got there. My husband took them. There were not too many people in the restaurant. The tray was not replenished for at least 15 minutes after it was emptied. It must have been low for at least a little while before we got there. Considering how few options they had it was rather surprising they weren’t more on top of replenishing the meatballs. Particularly since they were the only non-seafood protein option. There were several people asking for them and waiting for them to come out by the time they were brought out. I have no doubt the tray was empty again within a few minutes. The dessert options were fine. There was some fruit salad, yogurt, a cake and some whipped cream-thing. But I didn’t exactly feel satisfied when we left. The cocktails were good but expensive. €14.50 for a mojito. I wouldn’t go back to eat a la carte because I don’t have high hopes for the food based on what we got at the buffet.

No respect for customers at all. You stand there at the counter and the woman standing in the kitchen pretends you don't exist while the other worker is just eating in the kitchen where my food is made, which is probably not possible and not at all in front of customers. The lady also throws a lot of pepper into your arepa even though you didn't ask for it at all, so the arepa could immediately go into the trash 😒 You just pay €22 for 2 half-cooked, poorly made 'arepa' and 2 small quesillos, first time there and never again. Really a waste of money, sorry man Food is just like their service.... BAD THROUGH!

Amazing food in the museum. I will back. Should try onion soup 🫶🏻

30 euros for 2 spicy pumpkin chai and 2 cinnamon cakes, service, customer service, greetings in option. Education might not be for free. To avoid , a total ripe off, cakes taste like yesterday, chai taste like latte with a bit of syrup.Staff is to vomit. Thank you for the disgusting experience

I've read a lot of negative reviews, but we (2) thought it was very good. We had roti and rice rames (mixed meat). The place looks very neat. Service and preparation are hygienic with gloves. The roti tasted delicious; well-cooked chicken that wasn't dry, good long beans, the gravy a bit thin but very tasty and not overly seasoned. The rames: excellent rice, a wonderful variety of meats, nicely sour, and crunchy beans. Everything super fresh and very flavorful. The satay was also good. Large portion, no overpowering aftertaste. In short, we thought it was fantastic. Tip: fill the refrigerated display case; it looks a bit strange when it's empty. We will definitely go again.
