Brasserie Amadeus in Wijk 00 Centrum

Only went for coffee. Nice location, very friendly staff.

There was no plant-based milk available for the coffee. Personally, I find it very strange that this is not available in these times.

It is really cozy here! We went here once for a real Limburg flan and came back later for lunch. We enjoyed it both times. The staff is friendly, and the terrace is especially lovely. Definitely worth a visit if you are in Maastricht!

We ordered cheese croquettes and asked for fries instead of bread. Suddenly, we weren't getting salad with the cheese croquettes anymore; it was only available if you ordered bread. Very strange… We ordered salad and mayonnaise separately. These only arrived when everything was already finished. Furthermore, we asked for a bread combination with aioli, pesto, and tapenade. This turned out to be just baguette with pesto and aioli. Very disappointing. Our drinks (2 Cokes and water) also only arrived after our meal. If you sit on the terrace, you get the smell of the street drain thrown in for free. They had expertly placed a towel over it.

Find another terrace! A 1 because anything less isn't possible. We settled down on the terrace around 4:30 PM on a Friday evening with a family group of 10 people, thanks to a friendly gesture from 2 ladies who had already paid and moved over a spot so we could sit together. The waiter who was clearing a table mumbled something and disappeared, never to return. It was a long wait. Several of us signaled and still made eye contact with him, but we were completely ignored; very strange. It doesn't seem right to us that the establishment closes at 4:30 PM on a Friday evening during peak season, with diners still on the terrace which was otherwise practically full. Certainly not given the text on the sign. There were no tables reserved or anything either, so what exactly the problem was... we had just arrived in Maastricht and the spot is nice, but the service is a solid 0. A tasteless display. We eventually walked on to the Vrijthof where we found a super nice terrace with very hospitable service. (Monopole wrs)

Just had a drink... It took a loooooong time before we could order. That's why we really wanted to leave. It took a loooooong time before we could pay. And it wasn't busy. Just no attention for customers!

€16.80 for two beers and a still water, that's highway robbery.

Friendly staff. In a beautiful location in Maastricht.

I try the goulash soup and was amazing! And nice Spanish waiter give us good attention.

Cozy atmosphere and a top location for lunch and to watch the various visitors to the bookstore and Maastricht. The goulash soup is highly recommended: hearty yet not too heavy!

Delicious coffee, friendly service, and the Paradise Bookstore is right next door.

For the breakfast they have a wonderful option, big variety and good coffee !

The staff all speak English. That’s not a problem, but they could certainly be a bit friendlier. I especially miss the friendliness from the people bringing the order. The drinks are placed on the table without a word. Another thing: the menu lists Sourcy as water, both still and sparkling. However, after ordering, it turned out they were serving Chaudfontaine. When I pointed this out to the staff, I was told: “So what, sparkling water is sparkling water.” In my opinion, they just haven't understood.

Outrageously expensive, and of course, no price list! 23 euros for one sangria and one rum and cola? Are you kidding me?

we ordered just two soft drinks each 200 ml my girlfriend and me finished the drink in about 10 seconds and we paid 8 euro even mc Donalds is expensive but at least you get 500 ml and the drinks were those cheap syrup sugar bomb drinks…idk i just didnt like it!

We had a delicious meal here. The set menu was steak/schnitzel. Fine, let's go with that. It was a good price, and a substantial piece of meat. A side of fries and a complete meal. Friendly service (a lovely waiter who was up for a chat/a laugh). We didn't order the rest of the menu, but what we saw passing by occasionally was quite impressive; it certainly looked good. Good, tasty, and friendly.

We ordered pepsi max. As a cola-connaîseur, I can confidently say it was made with syrop for sure. Additionally, small smell of sewerage is present although this isn't the restaurants fault - but the city's. Staff is very friendly but not the best in quality.

Unpleasant service; the waiters didn't even come to take my order. I can't comment on the taste, as I left after 20 minutes without anyone coming. The coffee wasn't even half full.

The food was okay. Unfortunately, there were no accessible toilets. They were on the first floor, only reachable via a steep staircase and were very cramped. The staff was very friendly, despite the large number of tourists in the restaurant on the day I was there.

There was an older gentleman who refused to serve us because we were playing a card game. He said that in his 37 years of experience in the hospitality industry, he had never encountered anything like this. Very peculiar; we just left.

Very negative experience. Unfriendly. Had to pass the coffee ourselves. Wasn't allowed to ask to charge the bike battery! We won't be coming back.

Quite a meager ginger tea for €5.5, and you can smell the sewer.

We absolutely disagree with the negative reviews. Our family of four dined here and had a fantastic meal. There's absolutely nothing to complain about. All the dishes were truly delicious. I would even describe the Zuurvlees as exceptional – similar to German Sauerbraten, but in a ragout style. It's a traditional Maastricht dish. Furthermore, the waiter was incredibly friendly. He even pushed two tables together for us so we had more space. He was incredibly welcoming and attentive. It couldn't have been better. We wholeheartedly recommend this brasserie.

GREAT value for money and quick, friendly service 👍

We delivered food from menu but they misunderstand us and did not deliver anything at the end of 40 minutes

A spontaneous day trip to Maastricht and then ending up here by chance: it wasn't bad at all. We ordered bread and spreads, and that was enough for the two of us to get through the day: we weren't hungry for a while. The Brugse Zot and the delicious rosé instantly made the already spring-like day of March 1st a beautiful one. Friendly, if a bit brash, service, but everything was neat and correct.

I had a horrible experience with the waitress who came to our table. We simply asked for a coffee and water because we just had lunch so we weren’t hungry and the man (a bit old and was wearing glasses) literally laughed at my boyfriend because he asked for water and made fun of us for being cheap?? Excuse me but who are you ?? Afterwards when we asked why we can’t order water (because it’s a coffee shop) he asked my boyfriend if he is from Syria !!!! We both couldn’t believe the racism we just witnessed.when my boyfriend said that he is from Spain he simply laughed at our face. We immediately left the table and never looked back. I do feel regret for not speaking how racist and rude he was. I hope they do something about this disgusting behavior. I don’t recommend this place to anyone…..

Delicious food, friendly staff. We sat near the entrance, where you could hear the air conditioning quite loudly. Otherwise, a great experience.

Good experience, the food was more than adequate. The steak was tender, the schnitzel was large, and not too dry. The service was good; because something went wrong in the kitchen, we received a free drink for the inconvenience.

Amadeus has a wonderful atmosphere.In the very heart of Maastricht it was so picturesque. Food was amazing and staff was very friendly. I would definitely visit again! Greetings from Bulgaria.

Great atmosphere, location and food. The staff were very kind and willing to help with any inquiries! Definitely recommend it

Very friendly environment in the city center. Try the hot chocolate with whipped cream!

Very bad, had to wait 15 minutes for someone to come, while it was quiet, then I asked for the bill, he started chatting with someone and after 20 minutes still no bill.

We had a delicious meal and they were very friendly.

We were in Maastricht for a weekend and wanted to sit on a terrace. It looked very cozy and it was quite busy. We ordered a starter and a main course. We were very surprised when the starter and main course arrived simultaneously, leaving our entire table covered in food. I've never experienced this at any restaurant I've ever been to, and I found it very odd. However, the food was delicious.

It was our first time there. The service was good. The food was delicious. We'll definitely come back again.

The staff were extremely kind and very respectful. We really enjoyed the goulash and the onion soup. The desserts were also excellent and very well prepared.

I'd been craving a good burger for weeks, and when I saw burgers on the menu this afternoon while enjoying a hot chocolate, I knew where I'd dine. The service was very fast and friendly, and the burgers were delicious. I could talk about this for ages, but that's enough for this review. It's a beautiful building inside, and the staff was very friendly. I don't know where the negative reviews are coming from, and that worried me for a moment, but perhaps other people's experiences were different from mine.

We had a good meal and everyone was very nice.

The chicken flaguette was truly fantastic. The chicken was super tender and beautifully marinated. Almost all the staff spoke English, but despite the rush, everything came through quickly.

Whenever we're in Maastricht, we always stop by the terrace at Amadeus. Great beer, delicious bitterballen, and friendly service. We'd love to come back (soon)!

I've been there several times in the past. Now (I think) there's a different owner. Tomato soup €8.50, which I wondered if it came from a can. I paid too much for lukewarm soup. What struck me most was the tea (hot water with a Pickwick tea bag) for €3.90. More expensive than the Hague coffee they served me.

Excellent value for money. The staff (Carmen) is really nice and accommodating. The atmosphere (we sat upstairs) was cozy. The food was delicious. The little ones even get a lollipop after their meal! :) To finish, we treated ourselves to a slice of cake – super!!

We came here quite by chance and were very pleasantly surprised. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. The children's plate even included a toy and a sweet surprise. The dessert (cake) and coffee were so inviting that we wanted to linger – absolutely delicious! Carmen, our server, was also incredibly friendly, and overall, our day was perfect thanks to this visit! Thank you, we'll be back!!!

The cola is undrinkable and the staff speaks Dutch with difficulty. The staff at the bar were constantly bickering.

Great food, friendly service, no comments.

Coffee and pastries. First the coffee, then the wait for the pastries. Finished the coffee, and then waited a bit longer for the pastries. How on earth is it so hard to offer both at the same time!!! Finally, the pie wasn't fresh!! Too bad, the presentation was good, but the follow-up and the freshness of the pastries left much to be desired.

Very poor service, we weren't allowed to sit down even though there was clearly room... (waiter with stubble)

Very bad!!! I always loved coming here. Today there was plenty of room on the terrace. Two free tables for 4. We, a group of five (2 parents, 3 teenagers), wanted to sit down and were SHOVED AWAY by a gentleman who spoke broken Dutch. The rule is: a maximum of 4 people. .....?????

We waited 25 minutes and did get noticed at all. We left without getting noticed.

Had a delicious lunch, friendly staff, good value. Delicious salad with the steak. Only the chairs inside weren't very comfortable.

Very little choices for vegetarians, I didnt see any vegan options I was there for lunch and couldn't finish my meal, when I asked for take away, I was told "we dont do take away, you are not allowed to take the rest with you" WHAT???

At least for now, it's better than the 2.8 rating. Service was very good, and the food was quite acceptable for a tourist hotspot.

Many beers on the menu are unavailable. The staff only speaks English and not Dutch. Every time a question is asked, a colleague has to come over because apparently, only one person knows how it works.

Nice location and the cappuccino was fine but we had to wait a very long time.

Expensive. Coke is €3.80, not a bottle, just a 0.2-liter glass. You don't even know what's been poured.

Just had a delicious cup of coffee. I ordered a second one. I'm here alone and asked for a glass of water. The heat plan was brought out across the country today, but here the answer was that it wasn't possible. Only bottled. Still sparkling, they asked. Even my surprised look and some insistence were to no avail. The higher-ups couldn't do it. This is such a shame, for a world-class city like Maastricht. As a former hospitality worker, I understand that water costs money, the glass is an investment, and your staff don't work for free. But come on, this is why I won't be coming back because I don't feel welcomed. And that, in my opinion, is much worse.

Incredibly rude staff Didn’t understand a word they said Were upset about the order

The service is really bad. The old waiter was really rude.

Exceptional service, nice location!

The location is great, perfect for people-watching. We had a Bulgarian waiter who seemed a little chaotic. But after we chatted for a bit, he relaxed and turned out to be a very nice man! We had a wonderful time, and compliments to the waiter again!

Unfriendly staff, and we had to wait a very long time before we could finally place an order

Sent away because our family of 6 was not allowed to put two tables together.

It's nice to sit and watch the people go by, but while it seemed like an idyllic spot, you're ultimately mostly looking at shops. Only the bookstore offers a historical setting. We settled down there/took shelter when it started raining because you can sit on the terrace under large parasols. We ordered a snack platter for €25, but they should have called it a fried snack platter. We knew that beforehand; we'd asked, but it's misleading if you don't know. You got a ton of fried snacks, maybe 25-30? Too many for two people to snack on. But it certainly wasn't a snack platter. (Then you have more refined things like cheeses, olives, meats, etc.) The food I saw passing by wasn't refined either, just ordinary. It seems like a tourist trap to me because it's next to the bookstore. Nothing special, but okay.

Aufgrund der teilweise schlechten Bewertungen waren wir skeptisch, hatten aber kurzfristig keine andere Möglichkeit. Völlig überraschend hatten wir dann einen sehr schönen Abend. Das Essen war lecker und der Service perfekt. Wir haben überhaupt nichts zu bemängeln und können die negativen Bewertungen in keiner Weise nachvollziehen.

I usually come here for a drink, though it's quite expensive at €5 for tea, but it's good. The staff is friendly.

We were served by Zoe and Luis, two very attentive and friendly Spanish guys.

Nice location and delicious menu. Service disappointing, everything takes a long time. Probably understaffed.

A cozy terrace to sit and a super friendly owner :-). Who just took over from the previous owner who, given the reviews, didn't feel like it anymore. That is clearly different with the new owner. Who gives time, service and attention to her customers Who also stayed to chat with us after closing time while she had already been closed for more than an hour. She absolutely did not give you the feeling that you (like terraces in Amsterdam) are being looked away because it is already closing time. Nice service and the atmosphere around the terrace is also very nice :-) Too bad we were too late for dinner so unfortunately I can't say anything about that. Most of the service is English but they do their best to understand Dutch as well. Definitely recommended

Please choose one of the other terraces that Maastricht has to offer. The place is nice but the staff is very rude. After almost 10 minutes on the terrace there was still no contact with the service staff. When a somewhat older waiter cleared the table next to me and I kindly asked if I would like to place an order my question was rejected with a resounding NO! Never experienced anything like this before. And no, it was not busy at that moment. I was (a woman) alone and therefore probably not at all interesting to this gentleman who was talking very animatedly at the other tables. If a passing grade has to be given, it is for rudeness. A big 10 for that! I quickly went to another terrace where I was welcomed hospitably. If I were the owner of this beautiful establishment I would very quickly look for other staff.

Nice location. Had a beer there, La Trappe wit on tap. Cold and tasty. No experience with food. It was a bit difficult to get in touch with the staff, they don't speak Dutch or speak it poorly. I vaguely remember that I also had some difficult contact here a while ago, so that has remained the same. Furthermore, nice terrace.

The brasserie named after Mozart, Amadeus, is located in a building built in the 17th century. What is even more impressive is that it is located next to the Dominican Bookstore (Boekhandel Dominicanen), a well-known place to visit in Maastricht. Some of the outdoor seats of the restaurant are even just a few steps away from the entrance of the bookstore. Therefore, when dining at the outdoor seats of Amadeus, you can enjoy the quaint facade of the former Dominican Cathedral built in the 13th century while leaning against the monument. After dining, you can directly visit the Paradise Bookstore. Overall, the excellent location is the biggest advantage of Amadeus. I referred to the reviews on Google and it seems that many of them are reserved, but the experience of this visit is not bad. The waiter's attitude is friendly and positive enough. The main course of the Dutch traditional sour beef stew ordered is tender, and the sour sauce contains onions and other condiments. The taste is rich but not greasy, which forms a good contrast with the other dishes; the French fries and tomato soup ordered separately are normal. Amadeus may be considered as one of the restaurants around Vriithof, so there may be other better choices for the food itself, but if you happen to be in front of the Dominican Bookstore and want to try it, I think it is still worth considering.

The menu is sufficiently extensive. The service was with 6 hard-working people. They kept a close eye on everything. Direct table, order taken almost immediately. We had "breakfast from the chef"... highly recommended. All tables around us were helped reasonably quickly. The orders were also brought quickly. In short, a score of 2.8 is not at all fair for the effort that is now being made.

Downright bad. Long wait before order is taken. Staff does not speak Dutch and bad English. Aperol Spritz had so much ice in it that I only tasted water, expensive glass of water 🤐

Food is tasty and service attentive. Owner is a special type, but does not detract from the perfect service.

Perfect Locaiton. Perfect Service and food

I had a Tuna Melt sandwich here, but it was very bad. Obviously cheap and bad tuna. Very nasty aftertaste too. Forgot to check Google reviews and with a 2.8 star review you actually know. Therefore, avoid this matter! You can get much better quality for your money!

Een half uur zitten wachten, 3 maal de ober teken gedaan en nog altijd niet besteld. Vond het belangrijker om andere lege tafels te gaan opruimen, rookpauze te nemen en foto’s van zijn hond aan iedereen die het wel of niet wou zien in het gezicht te duwen. We zijn dan maar ergens anders heen gegaan

Waited half an hour and called the waiter 3 times, and they still didn't come to take our order. We left out of frustration. They won't see us here anymore.

We were in Maastricht and came across this brasserie by chance. It took quite some time before we were helped to our table on the terrace, but this may have been due to the crowds on the terrace. After this everything went well, but Radler 0.0 gave me a whiskey glass with ice cubes and a lemon slice. We had a 12 hour meal of 1 with fish and 1 with meat. This was very tasty, but it would be better to serve it with salt and pepper. Service was friendly. Toilet was clean, but you first have to go up a flight of stairs.

Bad service, doesn't see new guests. Waited 30 minutes.

Poor service, takes a long time and unappetizing coffee.

The man serving gets my compliments. Love for the profession and very friendly. The food was a bit less. They had the heaters on, so that attracted us too. Nice people watching from the terrace haha.

Very, very nice and friendly staff, in the person of Iva . Thanks and for sure i will visit them again

Given the many negative reviews, we were pleasantly surprised, we ate two very good hamburgers, the welcome was good and we didn't wait too long.

We went there to eat a piece of pie and an apple strudel and drink a cup of coffee. The service (although in English, but what does that matter nowadays?) was very friendly. The flan and apple strudel were really delicious. The apple strudel was just at the right temperature and had a nice taste, the rice and cherry pie was delicious (thin base, generously filled). Although a less good ending (we turned out to have been robbed by a thief who was sitting at an adjacent table, but we immediately received all the support and help from the managers who contacted the business managers): a good thing in which I do not recognize the many negative reactions.

Not sure about food and service but looks nice from outside

Este atractivo restaurante cerca de la antigua iglesia dominicana no estuvo a la altura de su ambiente en la calidad de bocadillo que sirvió. Tomé un uitsmijter con queso: bueno pero de ninguna manera especial.

Cold and unpleasant welcome. Service regardless of the people present outdoors this December 30, 2024 around 3 p.m. If what you order is no longer available, the drink will be replaced by another without asking your opinion. When you make the remark, you are told that they do not speak French. What a disappointment to want to enjoy a drink on the terrace and to be served this way. If French speakers bother you, put up a sign so we won't bother you anymore.

We in a group of 3 came to Maastricht today to review various catering companies including cafe restaurants, terraces, ... including the Brasserie Grand Café Amadeus (Restaurant Maastricht) located next to the Dominicanen Bookstore, and so we were not treated nicely today ! (To say the least) Especially by the grumpy staff member who ultimately reacts irritated, because you are immediately ignored the first time! The second time she came to the table irritated. We ordered 2x Coke and 1x Orange. But they let us sit while the customers around us later moved to other tables and got their drinks much earlier,...and we just waited????? We got up and left. We have made a note about this, and we only give it 1 star. Tomorrow we'll go back to the next catering location.

We, a group of three, sat down under the eyes of a waiter. We have been waiting patiently for 20minutes. In the meantime another group of people sat down right next to us. Their orders been taken immediately and there was loads of time for chit chat. We approached the waiter and asked to order. His response: don't rush me. 3minutes.

Nice place and great atmosphere, but the goulash soup is just bad. And watch the bill! We had a few drinks that weren't ours.

We were sitting inside in a table from which we saw asome elevators in which food arrived. We saw how the waiters took food off of the plates with their dirty hands and then took those plates to customers!! After seeing that I paid for my drink and left. What a shame!! I then decided to leave a review to prevent anyone coming here. That is when I saw all the bad reviews. I wish I would have checked them sooner.

Food very good, large portions, waiters very pleasant. Pleasant environment. Toilet could be more clean (ladies) Very good.

Spent a day in Maastricht on Sunday. Visited the Dominican bookstore. Wonderful with books out. Then drink at Amadeus. The order was quickly taken for 1 Fanta and 1 double soda and 1 apple strudel with ice cream scoop and dollop of whipped cream. We thought it was nice. We had the apple strudel in almost 20 minutes and it was hard to find on the plate and that for € 9.00. After about 15 minutes we asked where the lemonade was. Cold, you would say, is ready sooner than a hot drink from a customer who came in after us and had her drink before us. Waitress wanted to pay for the order before we even got it, I often have my wallet with me. The drinks weren't finished yet when the waitress came to ask us if there was anything she could do for us and I said no. With the 1st order, after 15 minutes I asked where the lemonade was while it was already ready at the counter. My daughter walked to the counter later and was not greeted kindly either. While trays were delivered later and ready earlier. Are we less or what? Every customer is one, right?

Friendly service quite pricey And chaotic delivery had to wait a long time, it turned out to have been delivered to later customers.

De sfeer in de brasserie is super gezellig en de koffie en gerechten zijn echt lekker. Alleen het wachten kan soms best lang duren, wat wel een beetje jammer is als je snel iets wilt doen. Maar als je even de tijd hebt, is het een fijne plek om te genieten van goed eten en een lekker kopje koffie.

very pleasant personal very pleasant place a good pan of beer

No warming terrace, just a few tables. Hot chocolate milk disgusting, the Irish coffee as well. Waiting 20 minutes to be served. I ordered an apfelstrudel that arrived a long time after my chocolate milk.

Downright bad experience. Staff at the table spoke only poor English, food was placed carelessly on the table and the toilet smelled quite a bit and was dirty. When paying, it turned out that an extra three euros per person had been charged for the pepper sauce with the steak. When I noted that in my opinion this was not correct, the manager was called in. She told me that the waiter told us that we would have to pay extra for this. I replied that when we placed the order we were only asked whether we wanted mushroom sauce or pepper sauce with the steak. I didn't look into this because I've never had to pay extra for the sauce anywhere. But the manager insisted that we had been informed in advance about the extra costs. (It's a good thing there was no mayonnaise with the fries. Who knows what that would have cost us.) I stuck to my story and said I wouldn't pay extra for the sauce. I do wonder how often this is done and whether it is a revenue model for this restaurant. They will never see me here again.
