Aries Noodles in Westlandgracht

Very very very yummy very fresh but empty for no reason cmon pull up and try this it’s so good

A small Indonesian place tucked into the side of an apartment building, but it felt a lot like any Jakarta resto. The service was quick and the food was tasty and authentic. Next time I'm back in Amsterdam, I'll make the effort to return.

Had a delicious meal, nice and spicy, and a very hospitable owner.

Adoe Enak Sekali ❤️ Wojo, very tasty 😋 Highly recommended. We come almost every week. Arie, see you soon 🫶🏽

Feels like home ... home made noodles, the tastes are awesome, the owner is Indonesian & really friendly. Portion is big enough. We ordered the chasiu noodle & all in one noodle.

Been a loyal Aries Noodles customer for 10+ years — definitely one of the best noodles in The Netherlands! 🍜 Authentic Jakarta-style taste, absolutely delicious! and the crispy chicken-skin crackers make it even better! Price? Totally reasonable. Good food = good quality = you pay for what you get. Want cheap? Cook Indomie at home! It's good too!!😂 Need halal? Then this might not be your place — just visit the Aries Noodles branch in Saudi Arabia instead. 😉

I don’t want to eat here because they sell pork. It’s disgusting although a lot of people say it’s good but no halal is no good sorry to say

The best mie ayam in Amsterdam! Mas Aries is always so kind and is always willing to accommodate to your dietary requirements if possible. Food is delicious and tastes homecooked

Had a tasty meal, but the price was a bit on the high side. Spa for £4 is quite expensive for a simple restaurant.

Food tasted really good, loved the meatballs! Noodles had a really nice texture, i would definitely recommend trying this place out!! Owner is also very friendly and clearly puts a lot of work into the food he makes. The effort he puts in is very much reflected in how good the food tastes.

Got the bakmi all in one with extra stuffed tofu and chicken skin on the side. The price is reasonable for Amsterdam (or even the Netherlands in general), especially with this quality and service. The noodles are handmade with perfect texture and the toppings all complimented each other really well. Owner/Chef was very friendly and careful with the packaging since we ordered for take away. Would definitely come more often!! Thank you for the nice meal :)

Just moved to the city and really enjoyed the comfort and sense of 'home' at Aries Noodles. The noodle soup was perfect and warm, a really satisfying lunch.

Authentic Indonesian food, good and tasty.

Specializes in noodles. Still tastes excellent. Prices have gone up with inflation. I enjoy coming here to enjoy the noodles. I also regularly take bacang home with me.

Mie pangsit with tofu, delicious! 👍 😋😋😘

Don't get me wrong, the noodles tasted good. But it was too small size for the price (14,50euro) and my bf ordered all included meat noodles (21,50euro) which supposed to be bigger portion than mine but no, same portion… and I got 500ml spa water and had to pay 4euro… which is even pricier than the price at the airport😂 a complete joke

I don't understand the 5 stars. Over 40€ for 2 (little!) bowls of noodle and 1 (one!) water. 50 cl of SPA water 4€ (the airport is cheaper!) Let's be clear food is good, tasty. But asking more than 20€ for one small (and it is small, irrespective of your hunger) bowl of noodles calling it "super" (means you get 2 wonton and 2 small balls of beef; 6€ premium over the normal) it's just marketing and borderline outrageous. Either adjust portions and overall meal and get 1 drink included or this is plain stealing with a smile. The place is small, simple, and it would he all fine if prices were 50% lower. That would be appropriate and maybe would even justify a bit of a trip. With this pricing is insane. The story of "hand made": you get noodles re boiled on spot with soup and meat that is (understandably) pre made. Nothing justifies the price. We live literally upstairs and wanted to try once anyway. We will not come again. Don't recommend it. Save your money

Thank you Ko for the hospitality and super delicious noodles! We order bakmi All in One with extra Tahu Bakso, yummy! Feel like eating at Jakarta! Hopefully we can come back again!

Was charged 38 euros for two noodles. That was the “discount” because I paid in cash. Two dumplings. Three mushroom slices. Absolutely overpriced.

Ko Aries - thanks for the excellent bakmie! We ordered bakmie all in 1 and bakmie ayam pangsit jamur and ice cendol for desserts. It’s just like as we are in indonesia. Congratulations on 14 years anniversary soon for the restaurant. We hope to be back again when we are in town. All the best!

amazing noodles & fantastic service

2 people charged 40 euro; 2 bakmi, 1 chicken skin, and 1 cendol. Thought the Babi Kecap would be bites big, its just like crumble. The noodle itself for me (indonesian) not salty enough. And also we were having trouble to pay, he said i have to pay cash, then we dont have cash, and he said yes we can pay by card but then he will be charged higher commission (i mean, why would it be my problems) its really disappointing experience.

Best Indonesian noodle in Amsterdam! I didn't even take picture of the noodle because it was so good and we were too busy eating it! Must visit if you are in Amsterdam

Very tasty & chewy noodle, authentic Indonesian Jakarta famous noodle. Must try Tahu Bakso (Tofu Minced Meat).

The noodle soup taste amazing really really good👍

The best noodle with authentic taste and just right portion size. We had the special.noodle, chicken skins and stuffed tofu, they were very delicious. The ambiance was very soothing and displayed Indinesian arts and paintings. The owner, Aries, was an amazing person, super friendly. Had a great experience and would definitely return to this place The next time we are in Amsterdam. A highly recommended place to have noodles.

i was recommended by a friend and was excited for this. taste wise it is good, but the portion doesn’t justify the price. and when we came there were no option to pay with card/ transfer/ tikkie, it was cash only

Authentic indonesian "mie ayam bakso". When you miss the taste of Indonesia but you can't go to Indonesia, Aries noodles is always a choice. And friendly owner.

The owner is super friendly and the food was tasty.

Got so much high & positive recommendation from friends all over, & today I experieced it myself and just fully agree with all of them that Aries does offer high quality & tasty of noodles at his restaurant. 5 thumbs up to you, Aries.

Exquisite home made noodles and broth. The owner was very kind. Would absolutely recommend

Best noodle in Europe! If you want to experience Indonesian hospitality, while enjoying hearty chicken noodle, don't miss this restaurant ✨❤️‍🔥

It was wonderful to enjoy the Bakmi all-in-one super noodles with extra-large stuffed tofu on this freezing winter day. The friendly owner is the only one in the shop and provides a warm welcome.

Really tasty! Simple food with great flavors. The owner was super nice and the food came very fast. I will be saving this place for whenever I'm in the neighborhood.

Delicious noodles, soup, and wontons! I went for lunch and definitely want to go back. The owner, Aries, was friendly, and everything tasted so fresh. Highly recommended, I'm looking forward to coming back!

One of the most authentic Bakmie in Amsterdam !! (coming from indonesian living in Ams) I think they have a very nice chewy noodle style that I miss a lot!!!~ and the soup with bakso is just perfectt ++they have a fried chicken skin OMGGGGG IT TASTE AWESOMEEEEEE (super crunchy, salty, umami perfect!) the place is also comfortable and nice with some seatings and the owner is expectedly friendly! would highly recommend (and might be one of my go-to place when i miss home) ❤️

Super yummy and authentic! Must get the bakmie all-in-one, I LOVED it 😁 Owner is super nice, helped us and made us feel like home.

If you are indonesian, then you will love aries noodle mie ayam

Got a delicious vega nasi goreng here, very friendly owner too.

Enjoyed the food a lot here! The food, the place, the utensils - everything just feels like I’m eating bakmi in a depot in Surabaya. To me, the highlight was the broth, noodle, and tahu bakso. Typical chinese bakmi, umami and sweet. The character of the tahu bakso is also typical, savory and slightly sweet. I will definitely come back again when I miss bakmi :)

Authentic Indonesian Food. Probably the best Mie I enjoyed outside of Indonesia. We extra came from Germany to Amsterdam and it was worth it (I am half-Indonesian and nearly every year in Indonesia). Nice service.

Very expensive, 5 people for €175. We came quite early for dinner around 5pm therefore no one else around and we saw all the noodles, bakso, nasi goreng, tofu were all microwaved. Back and forth the microwave door and ticking seconds were on. No cooking, nothing. Way too overpriced. Not worth it.

I had the 'Bakmi all in one' (€19.50). The bakmi is certainly tasty, but the portion is small. You also get a bowl of broth with a few bakso and wontons, but these aren't homemade. The owner also recommended a stuffed tofu (€6.50), but that was a big disappointment. It had no flavor whatsoever and didn't seem homemade either. Along with a bottle of water (€3), I paid almost €30. Far too expensive for a meal that mainly needs to be reheated and where not everything is homemade. I'm Indonesian and would have liked to have been more positive, especially since the owner was very friendly, but the prices are exorbitant. If you eat here, I'd recommend just getting a portion of bakmi. It's tasty and you'll pay less.

I came all the way from Brighton in the United Kingdom to come here after my mum recommended Aries noodles and it did not disappoint! As someone who is Indonesian, it was a great reminder of home and my mum’s cooking. I highly recommend eating here for an authentic Indonesian food experience! The owner Aries was very welcoming and we had a lovely conversation about Indonesia the food!

The most Autchentic Bakmi I have ever tried in europe so far! The owner is really friendly and lovely! You can also get chicken skin there ! The chicken skin was so good !

After 10 days of travelling, I need the comfort Indonesian food. And suddenly checked in map and found this place. The noodle is very delicious and satisfying.. even better than noodle in my island.. 😅 Feels like home and the best carboloading before Amsterdam Marathon..

It was the best Indonesian noodle in Europe i’ve ever eaten. The noodle were chewy and flavorful. The owner is very kind and very helpful. The ambience inside the restaurant was homey it was like i ate in my own house. My new favorite: Bakmie Babi Kecap Jamur

Food was okay. Asked for 2 waters, and got 2 50 ml bottles with no price listed anywhere in menu or in store. We assumed the price would be slightly higher than regularly market price, but it was charged at FOUR euros per bottle. What’s worse is that we noticed one of them was previously opened and wasn’t a full bottle. The owner replaced it, but didn’t provide any explanations. The entire thing felt like a scam. Very suspicious, and definitely made a terrible first impression of Amsterdam for us.

The noodles are really delicious!!

Nothing great about the food or service. Portions are really really small and taste is also very average. It's mostly for people working in the area to have lunch. Don't have higher expectations than the

Absolutely delicious Indonesian food! The homemade noodles were truly delicious, and the soup tasted incredibly authentic—just like in Indonesia. You can tell the heart and soul of the food is put into the cooking here. The owner is incredibly friendly and creates a pleasant, family-friendly atmosphere. Highly recommended!

The curly noodles in Jakarta are incredibly delicious. The dumplings are soft, the meatballs are incredibly meaty and chewy, and the tofu balls are huge, bigger than the palm of your hand! The wonton soup is rich and delicious, both satisfying and soothing. The place is clean, and the owner is very friendly and generous with her insightful tips for getting around Amsterdam. They also sell old-school pineapple tarts (nastar), the fragrant type with a cinnamon and caramelized interior. They say they use Wijsman butter, which is indeed fragrant and savory. ☺️ We ate there and went back the next day to buy takeout because it was so delicious. Keep up the good work!

What an absolute gem of a place! The food was genuinely delicious and packed with flavor. I’m usually more into fried rice than noodles, but I was seriously impressed with the noodles here. The owner was super friendly too, which just added to the experience. No doubt I’ll be coming back again.

The tastiest noodle in the Netherlands, I've been coming here since 2021

Stumbled upon this hidden gem while visiting Amsterdam. The owner was very kind and friendly, and the food was amazing!was told by the Indonesian locals eating here that the food is the real deal and very authentic. I’ll definitely be back for my next trip

Fabulous authentic home-style noodles. So very tasty. Portions are on the small size though.

Vegetarian isn’t veggie! It’s pescatarian. It contains fish

Authentic Chicken Noodles Indonesian style. Friendly service.

never tasted authentic bakmi, but I imagine this is what it tastes like, and Aries takes it to the next level. The noodles are handmade, and you can feel it as soon as you take a bite. The kecap manis pairs perfectly with the noodles. Aries is a friendly and welcoming owner, would 100% recommend.

Wow! Amazing! It’s so delicious, just like in Jakarta! Super tasty and delicious, just like home. If you’re craving good home made food and soup, this is the soul food place. See you again, sir! Thank you!

Delicious bakmie, taking you back to Jakarta. Amazing!!

Legit bakmie (noodles)! Felt like being transported to Jakarta. Will come back when coming to Amsterdam

It's really delicious, it feels like I'm eating noodles in Indonesia. The price depends on choice, yes, and the price corresponds to the authentic taste. More success in the future, okay?

Love it! The noodles + tahu bakso were yummy and they really tasted like home. The owner was also very friendly and welcoming. Definitely recommend, and will be back for sure.

The food is all delicious... Until we pack it up and take it back to Iceland. Muantaaabb... always successful, Aries.

An authentic indonesian Bakmie. 👍🏻👍🏻 Their home made noodle is so lecker!! Really like the one i used to eat in Jakarta. My favourite noodle is all-in-one noodle that has a perfect balance of savory and sweet. And the owner is friendly and very kind.

Very good authentic noodles! Had to come back for more before leaving Amsterdam. Food and service were fantastic

Ordered the Bakmi Ayam Bakso and Es Cendol, they’re absolutely delicious. Friendly owner and great atmosphere, would visit again :)

No problem with the price but why small portions 🥹

Nice owner Aries serves delicious Bakmi soup... just as tasty as the Bakmi GM Jakarta. We also take the Cendol here... super tasty! Remains a top address for us!

Bakmie, tofu, dumplings, cendol...all delicious. The room is clean and comfortable.

Aries Noodles Amsterdam is a gem! The noodles are absolutely incredible—surpassing even the flavors of home in Indonesia. Perfectly cooked with authentic yet refined taste, every bite was a delight. Great atmosphere, fantastic service, and an unforgettable dining experience. Highly recommend!

Absolutely amazing hand made noodles. Full of flavour and perfect bite. 10/10

The noodles were good but the portion of the 'Bakmi all in one' was rather small for the price. The photo of the dish on the menu looked significantly larger than the small bowl I got for €19.50.

We recently ordered lunch for a big meeting at our office from Aries. The dishes were liked by everyone and the communication with Aries beforehand was great! Many thanks, we will order again!

Very friendly owner and plenty of seating in the restaurant both inside and outside. The 'Mie Kuah' was tasty but not very special. Unfortunately, other dishes such as noodles and nasi were not freshly made but only warmed up. The price is also on the high side compared to the quality you get.

kinda shock the price and portion really not worthy at all. With the ice tea €22 per person. Better go to other restaurant that is much better for the price-portion-taste

I wish I could come here more often and enjoy the vibrancy of the owner Aries. He always makes you feel welcome.

Being Indonesian holidaying in Netherland for 10 more days, we were craving for indo style noodles. And when we found it, OMG! it's like finding precious gem. The noodle texture is chewy and nice. For €19 noodle with full of tasty topping, it is so worth it. We ordered for dining in, and because the noodles we ate were so good, we also ordered for take away. As predicted, when we ate the take away noodle the next day, it still tasted good even without reheating it (I think because the quality of the ingredients Aries used are best ones).

Aries makes his noodles from scratch. All of his food taste like authentic Indonesian food. His prices are very reasonable. Aries noodles is one of my regular places to eat.

lowkey scam - massively overpriced for a bowl the size of my palm (would not pay over €8)

Noodles were delicious. Portion was small.

Amazing noodles! And es cendol great for a hot day

Delicious self made chewy textured noodle that is very addictive! I wish it’s close by so I can have it at least once a week. Add to that the crispy chicken skin, the meatballs, the fish paste filled tofu, the fragrant chili sauce and the sweet and refreshing Indonesian tea. So glad to have found this place! The zongzi/bakcang is even more delicious! I can’t stop craving for more. Place is clean, owner is super friendly, and price is well maybe pricey but worth the effort and the taste. Definitely one of the must visit in Amsterdam now!

Really tasty Indonesian noodles!

The noodles really good 😋😋😋 And the owner aries really kind friendly

Great noodle place and Aries the owner is very friendly and helpful

Really love their noodles! It has the authentic Indonesia’s flavors ❤️ the restaurant vibes are also homy, the owner is so kind. Really nice experience to taste Indonesia’s authentic noodle called ‘Bakmi’. Btw, their ‘baso tahu’ and ‘pangsit’ are legend! Will come back again when I’m visiting Amsterdam again. 👌❤️

A delightful cuisine to those who crave Indonesian noodles. I don’t eat that much, but for this, two bowls are not enough. You should also try the side dishes; Tahu Bakso and Krupuk Kulit are my recommendation (being an Indonesian). The restaurant itself is spacious, there are indoors and outdoors table, quite cozy for a noodle place. The owner is also super cool, we talked a lot about his lifetime’s journey running the restaurant. Think of it like your friendly bartender pal, but he serves you bakmi instead of liquors.

The best homemade noodles I’ve tasted that reminds me of home for real! The sambal, noodle, mushroom and everything are marinated so perfectly! Big shout out for the Tofu meatballs, the best ever! And of course special mention for the owner that is super friendly and nice, Indonesian hospitality can be felt right from when you step into the restaurant! Will definitely come back here every time I visit Amsterdam, since even this time I flew especially from Copenhagen to here! 😆🙌🏻

OK. Would have like it much more spice in the noodles but it is quite OK. The noodles are itself great though. Perfect texture, not too soft not too hard. Meatballs OK. Tofu meatball quite good. A bit pricey. But the location is quite accessible so maybe that is why.

I ordered bakmie ayam pangsit and fried chicken skin on the side. They have of course the most authentic Indonesian noodles style “mie ayam”. Noodles were soft but also has chewy texture. The broth was light yet rich in flavor. One thing that could be better was the broth could have been hotter. As the noodle was served “warm” the broth should have been warmer or even hotter to complement each other as a full dish. Lastly, the fried chicken skin adds a lot of crunch and flavor to this bowl. I would come back for sure.

Super tasty, authentic and al dente Indonesian noodles aka Mi Ayam Jamur Pangsit. The only one in Europe. I would take a weekend holiday from London to Amsterdam just to eat Aries noodles. Worth it every single time. As close as you can get to mi karet in Kelapa Gading, Jakarta.

Love the home-made noodles! Add fish oil and lots of sambal from the table to make it taste more authentic. Don't forget to also order extra tofu meatball and chicken skin as side dish.

Great experience! Tasty food - reminded me of Jakarta street food - and great service!

Authentic Indonesian Noodle with various option of meat (and vegan option with tofu and mushroom only) you can choose. You will love the noodle texture. Lekker!

best noodle ever. many toppings to choose from and all are amazing, will be visiting again

As an Indonesian I can say: not worth it at all! The taste is disappointing, the price is exaggerated and the portion is very small! You can make this yourself at home. Owner is nice, but sorry, it's all true.

Missing medicine. Even though the prices are not cheap, especially the chicken skin and tofu meatballs, for anyone looking for Indonesian Chinese chicken noodles, this is guaranteed to be a good match. In my opinion, some of the reviews here with negative comments are European people who don't understand this style of Indonesian Chinese chicken noodle.

I am a regular customer of this place. I Love every food here. It's super delicious!! And the owner is very nice and friendly that also makes you enjoy eating.
