Café Binnenvisser in Da Costabuurt

Best meal I’ve had this year ❤️

Good experience but short food menu.

cozy atmosphere, crazy food, very distinguished. Mostly Veggie-friendly! Recommend, but it was a gift so I can’t speak about the price in depth.

The only downside to this cozy restaurant is that it isn't around the corner for me. I am happy to travel for it because: the service is authentic and with a smile; the food is simplistic (good preparation and refined ingredients) and oh so flavorful; and the wines are delicious!

Super delicious evening! Wonderful flavors, good service. Very pleasant atmosphere.

Lovely ambiance, great wines and great vegetarians options!

loved the food!!!! soosososo goood!!!

Lovely vibe but unfortunately the set menu was lacklustre and the service was extremely slow - each course was very small (eg. a single potato with egg or a tiny portion of peas) but the gap between each course was about 30 mins. There was an extreme lack of carbs and some of the dishes didn’t really go (eg. lamb with a turnip and labneh?). Nice wines but I feel like the whole place is riding too much on a ‘vibe’ and not enough on quantity, quality or value for money!

Great atmosphere to have dinner! Thank you.

A kind experience that didn’t quite justify the price We arrived late and the staff was genuinely warm - they offered us a glass of bubbles while we waited for our table, which was a lovely touch. That said, we only realized afterward that we had been charged €16 for those two glasses. When drinks are served informally while standing and waiting, it would be fair to mention upfront that they are not complimentary. A small thing, but it leaves a sour note in retrospect. The vibe of the place is really charming - the kind of setting that makes you want to enjoy a long, unhurried dinner. Which makes it all the more disappointing that the food didn’t quite live up to it. The tasting menu at €55 per person sounds reasonable on paper, but several courses turned out to be shared between two - meaning each of us effectively received half a portion at full price. If I had come alone and ordered the same menu, I would have eaten considerably more for the same amount. That inconsistency is hard to overlook. A tasting menu ordered per person should deliver individual portions; if sharing is the format, the pricing should reflect that clearly. To close, the dessert we had been looking forward to wasn’t available. At that point, having spent what felt like a disproportionate amount for what we actually ate, the overall impression was one of poor value - not because the food was bad, but because the experience didn’t add up fairly. The warmth of the staff and the atmosphere of the space are genuinely worth acknowledging. The rest needs work. PS: The restaurant actually did reimburse the 2 glasses of Cava. Class.

There are many locals there, and the restaurant is packed with customers, so reservations might be a good idea. The food is delicious, and the location is great, with a tram stop right in front of the restaurant.

We had a lovely experience at Cafe de Binnenvisser, with many thanks to Eline who was incredibly sweet and did her best to give my 86-year-old grandpa a nice place to sit. The food was delicious; the only thing we didn't find quite fantastic was the pommes anna, as the flavor was a bit lacking. Otherwise, the bok choy was really delicious and the appetizers too, especially the sea bass. Wow!

Tucked away in Amsterdam West, Café Binnenvisser delivers one of those effortlessly cool dining experiences that feels authentically local. The minimalist interior, communal bar seating, and relaxed atmosphere set the stage for a meal that’s all about quality ingredients and thoughtful execution. The experience started with fresh crusty bread and whipped butter alongside a crisp natural wine before moving into beautifully presented seasonal dishes. Everything was cooked with precision, letting simple ingredients shine without unnecessary complexity. The wine list is well-curated, with knowledgeable staff happy to recommend pairings. Service was warm and attentive without ever feeling intrusive, and despite the busy dining room, the pace of the meal remained relaxed. If you’re looking for a trendy spot that prioritizes excellent food, natural wines, and a genuine neighborhood feel, Café Binnenvisser is well worth the visit.

Not solo-friendly. You can’t order the 5-course menu alone, and ordering three à la carte dishes ends up costing about the same, but I wouldn’t recommend doing that. The female server wasn’t very friendly, and the service felt fake. They got my order wrong, and when I said I’d just keep it, no one explained whether it was similar to what I’d originally ordered. I ended up with two fish salad–type dishes. Had high expectations, but left disappointed.

Unfortunately, we didn’t have a good experience here. The service was among the worst we’ve had in Amsterdam! We ordered two glasses of wine, and the waitress served them without offering us the opportunity to taste them first. After that, she never returned to our table. We had to ask another waitress if we could change one of the wines, explaining the situation, and order through her instead. The whole experience felt uncomfortable and unwelcoming, so we decided to order only a starter and move on to another restaurant. It’s simply not worth staying somewhere where you’re paying for a service but made to feel unwelcome.

Everything was delicious! We took the 5 course meal. We started with cold leek soup, followed by pea salad, white asparagus, lamb chops and ended with rhubarb desert (or chocolate mousse). On a hot summer day, everything felt refreshing and fresh. The service was good. They refilled our water without asking, which is great for a restaurant here in Amsterdam. The waitress was also very patient with my autistic daughter, who couldn’t make up her mind on what to take and just ended up eating desert. The wine I selected was too acidity but they suggested another and it was delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant.

We came to eat with 8 women. And we had a fantastic evening. The service was perfect! The young man knows what he is doing. The food was super tasty. I will definitely be back!!

We celebrated my daughter's birthday here. It was super relaxed and cozy. The food was surprising, but on the salty side. The wines were delicious. The atmosphere was great!🌸

Had a great evening. The service was wonderful, the food was delicious, and the atmosphere was homey and warm.

Super cool spot. Excellent food, lively place, awesome server from New Zealand - we loved her! We ate at the bar and met some great people. It's a cozy spot. If you don't enjoy being squeezed in a bit, it's not for you. But if you like a joyful spot with excellent energy and beautiful food and great wines, book it. Learned about this one from Rebekah Peppler, who writes for NY Times and other media, and her advice is always on point.

A truly excellent restaurant with a sensational 5-course menu. Superb wine selection! We'll definitely be back!

The service is way above the Dutch standards and food is carefully selected and prepared by the chefs and waiters. The environment is "gezellig", specially the tables next to the windows at is it in a corner. Two important things I would like to mention are: 1. We were doubting between the 3 different orange's wines, that the offer per glass, and the waiter openly offered to try a little the 3 of them with some explanations between them. It is one of the few times a waiter takes her time and offered nicely withour rush. This was really a gesture that distinguish you from other bars/restaurants in Amsterdam. 2. This one not so positive, but neither negative, more to improve. The "vark karbonade" came with room temperature as main dish, which we would have expected to be warm. Maybe there was something between kitchen and waiters as usually all dishes came perfect and on time. Last but not least we show 3 no shows, meaning tables reserved that people did not cancelled and therefore empty so if you are interested last minute to go maybe try to call as throught the website will appear full.

Amazing 5 course menu. Relaxed and laid back place.

A lovely girl took me to this place for dinner and it did absolutely deliver! We ordered a bottle of orange house wine (which was delicious), and I noticed you can also order it by the half liter, this instantly made me think about Italy, where this is an option in almost every restaurant. For dinner there is a 5-course menu that the chefs will arrange for you. We decided to pick our own dishes and order 5 different plates to share. Every single dish was truly amazing and had a really interesting range of flavors. I can recommend the seabream tartare with tarragon mayo and sambai. I will definitely come back for another lovely dinner!

A truly unique restaurant with a youthful atmosphere. It's even more charming in the evening, thanks to the candles and soft lighting that create an intimate and pleasant atmosphere. We chose to share several dishes and were very satisfied: everything was delicious, with great attention to the quality of the ingredients and excellent value. The staff was very kind and welcoming. I really enjoyed it and recommend it!

The food was disappointing despite all the hype surrounding the place. It's a shame because the location is very nice, the atmosphere is really pleasant, and the service is very good.

The food is amazing. Great value for money if you enjoy good food and savoring flavors and textures with a good wine.

Cool natural wine bar! Very friendly service! A good range of natural wines! A good adress for a relaxed evening!

Best meal in Amsterdam we had, underrated for how delicious and interesting the food was. Surprised by how affordable it was given the quality as well. Would visit again and recommend to others.

Vibe 10/10 Staff 10/10 Wines 10/10 Food 12/10 !! (+lots of veggie dishes)

Delicious food with plenty of vegetarian options and good products! Plus, the atmosphere (even on Monday nights) makes for a great evening.

The food taste good but the menu is extremely boring and ressembles the myriad of other restaurants of this sort. It’s is not the first time that I come here but probably it will be the last one because I dislike how haughty the service is. The bread and butter were undoubtably excellent points!

nice good, friendly staff, great vibes

The food was delicious, excellent value for money. Around €50 for a five-course meal is really reasonable. We had a wonderful time with our in-laws. The music was a bit loud, though, as one of our guests is hearing impaired, which wasn't ideal.

Absolutely loved this place! The food was incredible - fresh, creative, and full of flavour. The vibe is cosy and the natural wines were delish. The staff were warm and attentive. You can tell they really care about what they do. Can’t wait to come back!

What an absolutely fantastic place! Superbly original dishes, just as tasty. The atmosphere is fantastic, the service is spot on. It feels like a hidden gem, but of course it isn't, as I've been there for years. But highly recommended.

Food is good but portions are very small. The venue is nice and worth going for drinking wine in good company

I bought a €50 voucher online but never received it. Despite visiting the restaurant twice and sending three emails, I didn’t receive the voucher or a refund. Disappointing, especially as the restaurant itself is nice.

I visited here for the first time a couple of years ago and was very enthusiastic back then, but now I am really disappointed. We were seated in a corner at the bar that wasn't actually suitable as a seat. It was on the inside of the bar and I was sitting more against the fridge than at the bar; it wasn't comfortable. The dishes were tasty, but not very special. The portions of the main courses were small. All in all, overpriced. After 2 hours we were asked to leave due to the new shift; that had been announced beforehand, but I still feel that this cozy place loses a lot of its charm because of it. A real shame!

Seasonal plates done right & great atmosphere!

We loved our dinner at Binnenvisser: the food, the wine list, and the service! It was flawless.

Great food, great atmosphere and great service for a Dutch restaurant!

Experience unfortunately below expectations The wine was served already opened, without being opened at the table: a Chenin Blanc that was overly acidic, aside from this lack of care. Not a good start. The food was generally good but did not live up to the expectations set by the menu and the restaurant’s reputation. There was also significant confusion regarding the tasting menu: what is presented as a 5-course menu turned out to be a 4-course menu, while still being charged as five. In addition, the duck listed on the menu was missing, and two courses were served to be shared, which is not transparent or fair. A tasting menu ordered per person should consist of full individual portions; if courses are shared, the price should reflect that. We asked several times to order additional dishes, but each request was refused with different, unconvincing explanations. The clear impression was that the kitchen was close to closing and unwilling to accommodate. In the end, we were only able to order bread and butter (which were good). For this reason, I would recommend not accepting reservations after 9:00 pm if a full service cannot be guaranteed. Another issue: the order was taken entirely from memory, and the bill included items we did not consume. A basic note-taking system would help avoid mistakes and misunderstandings. As we were dining with a guest, we chose not to raise these issues at the table to avoid discomfort. Nevertheless, the experience leaves a negative impression, mainly due to the lack of clarity and fairness rather than the food itself.

My favourite restaurant in Amsterdam.

It was very tasty! Nice service :)

Warm, cozy, inviting atmosphere with delectable food - we loved every bit of our experience here. Not to mention our server Elfi, who was an absolute delight. Music was great and it wasn't too noisy or too quiet. We might come back another of our quick four nights in Amsterdam because we enjoyed our experience here so much!!

Kamoun had a great Time with the crème brûle ! + her new earing !

Each and every time 10/10. Food was once again amazing, the vibes were ON, wine =flowing and Alexis our waiter knew what he was doing! He made our experience 10x better with how fun and lovely he was.

What an amazing dinner! Food was great and the staff too! Thank you so much for such a special evening

Well, it's okay to have a snack at the expensive price, the vibe is very nice, but you won't be able to get full here.

we LOVED it. Totally romantic vibe and queer friendly. Also we LOVED the sommelier. Best wine pairing we have had and so happy to discover this delicious wine. Thank you!

Tasty food, extensive wine list, friendly service, but a bit rushed.

Foodwise, we were pretty disappointed. We had the 5 course menu. The soup (1st dish) was cold (tasty though), the main dish (redfish) was not tasty at all. Love the atmosphere, service was good, but wouldn’t come back here just because of the food.

A wonderful atmosphere for a romantic candlelight dinner and a truly excellent wine list. Some of the portions were a bit too generous for our taste, but better that than too little :)

The food was delicious, with large portions. Excellent value for money. There's a wide selection of wines. The atmosphere is cozy. Definitely recommended.

The mussels on toast were some of the best bites of my life

Food might be great (even though the service is poor and chaotic), but refusing cash is pure nonsense. Not everyone wants banks tracking and flagging every meal and sip. Privacy is a right, not a crime! Stop feeding the cashless madness. Privacy apparently isn’t on the menu in Amsterdam anymore and that's insane! At least Berlin, Milan, Prague, San Sebastian and others still understand what freedom means...

Great food and atmosphere. The mushroom dish was really tasty.

Perfect place, very good food and friendly staff. It was 10/10.

We dined with three people tonight. The sharing dishes were too small for one person, let alone for three. The quality was mediocre, and the dessert we'd chosen was out of stock. The wines were mediocre. The price-quality ratio (darn expensive) was terrible! We eat out in Amsterdam on average twice a week (for 15 years now). This was a big fail!

Super cute place, very friendly service, and the food was truly delicious!! The only downside is the time slot, which means the five courses are served quite quickly, making it feel a bit rushed. Other than that, highly recommended.

We discovered Café Binnenvisser through Otto Berlin and ended up having a really lovely evening. The concept is super nice a warm, welcoming atmosphere where hours just seem to pass by without noticing. For starters we had olives, oysters with jalapeño and cucumber, bread with butter, Hokkaido pumpkin with sheep cheese, sage mixed mushrooms with egg yolk and Szechuan, and a steak tartare with ceps and ramson capers. Every dish was carefully presented, and the flavors felt both balanced and exciting. For mains, we went with the kohlrabi with chili de ancho, anise mushroom and the chicken moutarde with La Ratte potatoes and chives. our desserts included chocolate mousse with condensed milk and hazelnuts, as well as kombu ice cream with elderflower and blackberries. These, however, didn’t quite convince us as much as the other courses. The wine selection was fantastic – thoughtful pairings and a great variety – and the beers were just as enjoyable. Food presentation added another layer to the experience, which made it feel special. The only downside was that the service took longer at times, and the desserts could be improved. Still, overall we would definitely come back and highly recommend it. reserving a table is recommended and the prices are very fair! thanks for the nice evening

The food was incredible, the service was great. We had the 5 course menu and everything was delicious, especially the oyster mushroom. Loved the cozy ambiance too ! thank you 😊😊😊😊

Great vibes, great service, great food. The wait between dishes is long, but if you're with the homies it's all good.

This is a lovely wine bar in Amsterdam and should definitely be on any foodies list to try great wine with some tasty small plates. The wine was delicious - I would recommend any of the Orange, especially the mulatscak. The food was good but not outstanding. We had the bread from Louf (the related bakery next door), the sam marzano tomato’s and burrata, the leak vinaigrette and the mustard chicken. The tomato/ burrata dish was very impressive with a complex smokey flavour that paired extremely well with the bread. The leek and chicken dish was good but were nothing special. I saw some reviews about the long waits in between dishes. This is true however in my opinion is not a shortcoming as it allows you to fully appreciate the dishes with your wine which is the central focus of the venue. The ambience is relaxed but sophisticated and the service was friendly and helpful. Overall I had a great experience here and would return.

Update - after leaving the review i received a call from them and they said they would leave a voucher for the amount we were overcharged for at their bakery loof. When I went to the bakery, there was nothing left, so lowering my rating to a one star after the second time they mess up. Feedback: i love the food and the atmosphere here. however last nights experience was unfortunately a bit disappointing due to poor service. even though the bar was empty, we were first denied a seat there. we could only get a seat after making a reservation for the bar online, while at the restaurant. We were also overcharged for our bill, and unfortunately nothing was done to make up for it except for offering many 20c coins.

Very pricy for what you get. The menu even though paid separately is shared in ways that is not properly communicated to the customer. The food is very average and does not much the price.

Came here on a beautiful summer day, and we were seated outside on their gorgeous terrace (recommend you reserve). We got the burrata starter, which was quite decent. We also had the leak vinaigrette - peas dish, which was more like 2 dishes in 1 that did not have much chemistry with each other. Our entrée, the chicken moutarde, was fine — good but nothing special. We had a scoop of ice cream (forgot the flavor) with granola under as dessert. Overall, the food was okay, but I wouldn't urge anyone to come here to try the food. What truly undermined our experience here, however, were the wait times and service. First, the wait time — we waited an hour between the burrata and the peas, and the ANOTHER HOUR between that the entrée. We had to alert the waiters multiple times. Their explanation was that dishes not belonging to the chef's menu would take longer because the kitchen prioritizes the orders belonging to the chef's menu. Which is... honestly just a terrible excuse? Having such long periods in between dishes really undermines the dining experience. Because their outdoor seating is quite far from the indoor restaurant space, you can't catch the attention of a waiter. You can only catch them if they've already made their way to the outdoor area to serve someone, and then they forget to check on you, but you also don't want to say something to grab their attention because that's rude etc etc. It's just a bad vibe, especially if you've been waiting 2 hours for your food.

Absolute must. This place is a gem. Hands down the best meal we've had in Europe on our trip. A bit pricey but well worth it.

Well, the food was good, service was nice, bur nothing special. Staff could be better informed about the the menu. Ambiente was super nice, so well, nice experience but not more.

We had dinner here this evening with the two of us and it was a very nice experience! Service was great, just friendly, casual and no bs. Server recommended a nice wine and the 5 course menu. Food was very good, nice variations in flavours and good portions ( I’m a big eater ) Wines were different than usual but we both liked it. We will be back here :)

Delicious, original dishes, friendly service, and great music. Excellent value!

The restaurant vibe is amazing, people are nice. We tried the 5 courses chef menu, the starters are ok, cold soup was nice, other sharing dishes with mixed of greens and cheese. but started the from the main course ( my family pick the chicken and I ordered the Vegan foam dish) taste strangely between sweet/ savory, too much flavors in one dish. its very confusing and feel like the chef is trying too hard to put all the ingredients in one dish. Its like question in our head: what is going on here!!! The desserts chocolate ice-cream is weirdly with too much of salt and oil…. It has totally ruined the taste. This tasting menu is rate and cost too high for the quality of food.

Lovely spot in Amsterdam , Great nature wines, we had a chef menu, wich was good.

10€ per shot is wild, ruined the whole dining experience. Other restaurants actually offer these to clients as a thank you after a nice meal (not that I expected this), but you instead decided to increase our bill by 25% for 4 shots. First and last, good luck.

Best restaurant in Amsterdam. Everytime I eat here I am served with excititin new tastes. Love it. Service is the best in the city. Praise for our curly haired waitress: she was warm, welcoming, experienced and gave us perfect suggestions about what to order! Ten out of ten!

Had dinner here … great atmosphere … excellent food and really good staff. Liv and Yve looked after us so well. A ‘go there again place’. Don & Jenny

We had a really disappointing experience here. When we arrived, no one greeted us until we started walking in ourselves. The hostess finally came over and told us the kitchen was closing in 15 minutes but said there was space for us without a reservation. She asked us to look over the menu and said she'd be back to seat us, then never returned. When she finally did, instead of helping us, she suggested we try a diner nearby that might be "more to our liking." It was dismissive and honestly insulting. As we were leaving, she laughed with her coworkers and said, "Yeah, they were looking for food." Completely unprofessional and disrespectful. Would not recommend this place to anyone. There are plenty of restaurants nearby that treat their guests with basic courtesy. This is not one of them.

Love the place, the vibe, great service. Dishes were beautiful, but I was expecting a bit more taste from the ingredients.

Great food, attentive service. Cool and somewhat hyped place. Very hip atmosphere!

Had a wonderful evening for my birthday! The staff provided excellent wine recommendations, and the food was all surprisingly delicious!

Er zijn slechts twee hoofdmaaltijden. Een met kip en een met koolrabi. Het stukje kipfilet was gaar, tjongejonge! en vergezeld van 2 blaadjes rucola en 2 kruisbessen met veel saus; verder niets. Na een fles Bourgogne te hebben besteld, kregen wij een geopende fles zonder etiket. Op onze vraag aan de overigens vriendelijke bediende waarom er geen etiket op de fles was hebben wij uiteindelijk geen antwoord gekregen. Kortom: wat ons betreft nooit meer Binnenvisser.

Lovely spot with outdoor seating, perfect for summer. Had a lovely atmospheric dinner with delicious food and good wine. Service was attentive and helpful. Highly recommend the gazpacho on a hot day.

Delicious food. Nice laid-back atmosphere and very friendly staff. No fuss but just good food and good wines. We will definitely come back! Oh and the music they play is really great!

Good atmosphere, very nice and friendly service and surprising, tasty dishes. Original wine list makes it complete. Recommended.

Food was absolutely delicious! Had the 5 course and it was genuinely so good. However, booked for 9pm and waited around till 9;15 to get seated. And then didn't get a menu for half an hour, and then didn't get food until 10, with each course taking a long time to come out. We were hungry though, and it was far too busy for the two lovely waitresses in my opinion. Everything else great though :) very cool vibe and aesthetic too

What a great start to our weekend! We dropped in without a reservation, but a table was arranged for us at the last minute, great service. The service was friendly, knowledgeable and personal. The wines were carefully selected and recommended, and matched the food perfectly. And the food? Delicious. Really a place to recommend. We will definitely be back soon!

Excellent wine and fantastic food.

Food was delicious with well-balanced flavors but not super special (a bit like a strawberry-eating dragon) although mega delicious but somehow missing something for a Viviane evening

I usually really enjoy this place and have had great experiences in the past, but last night’s Greek evening was a big letdown. The dishes were underwhelming, basic and very small portions. While the wine selection and service were both good, it's disappointing to spend €120 (even with a discount) and still leave hungry. We actually skipped dessert after seeing how small and unimpressive the Greek yogurt finale looked. On the way home, we ended up stopping at a burger bar just to feel like we’d had a proper meal... genuinely!

Disappointing, came for a Greek inspired dinner (in the presence of Greeks who were in our company). Unfortunately nothing of the Greek touch tasted and typical Amsterdam: micro portions, little taste and way too expensive to be hungry afterwards.

The dessert chef is a genius I love this brioche ice cream

I’ve been going to Binnenvisser for years. Always have a great time. I miss their fritters though and wish so bad they’d bring them back. I don’t really enjoy the food anymore, but the snacks are good. I go there for the natural wines and the friendly service and the super cozy atmosphere / vibes. I do wish they wouldn’t make you book a 5 course, it’s just not worth it.

Fantastic cuisine and attractive restaurant! Highly recommended. One star less because the service was mainly absent. No introduction to the menu, often asking for drinks yourself. This put a bit of a negative atmosphere on the evening. We will go back again because this was probably an incident.

The atmosphere is superb, verry Amsterdam - pretentious. Moody, cozy, dim lighting and candles. The food (the ones I got at least) was good, including a tomato soup, a white asparagus and potatoes with miso and chicken liver pate. The biggest let down is the pace and service. Wait long between each courses (30min +). Ended up leaving without having the last 2 mains. The service is hard to find/signal. Perhaps its simply because they are understaffed. However, when I shared my feedback of the slow food service, the waiter simply said this is how it goes here. I know the Dutch are stereotypically direct but that is just simply indifference, borderline ignorance.

Not worth your money or time Vibe is aesthetic, but not worth paying €120 for food AND drinks for two people, and leaving the restaurant completely unsatisfied and disappointed. The portions are very small for what you pay, and they don’t have a main dish with fish, only meat or veg option. It’s also quite cramped, they literally try to fit guests on every surface of the restaurant. Don’t know why and how they have so many good reviews…

AMAZING food, so vibey. A perfect date or girls night spot. Great wines and delicious food. Reminds me of some great modern places we have in Sydney, Aus.

Cafe Binnenvisser undersells this place. It’s a proper five course set menu hipperati Amsterdam restaurant. Its understated interior makes it a beloved place to sit and be seen amongst the upper crust of vanMoof Amsterdam. And the hype is real. The dishes were each excellent and well balanced. The atmosphere instead felt spacious and special. The duck and the dessert were real high lights as was the leak soup (yes really) One thing that was missing was a good sommelier or wine pairing with the dinner. They only do natural wines, and the ones we tried were not great. The music was also too loud for our liking but that’s apparently their “house style” and we all know the Dutch like to “house” so we just accepted that as par for the course. Could imagine coming back here in a different season to see what they did with the menu, but will be sticking to the beer and perhaps brining some earplugs The cocktails were excellent and it was fun to be in a building that resembled the flat iron in New York, except only three stories. Ask for the seat by the window and make sure to make a reservation ahead of time—binnenvisser wont disappoint

The chef had a fetisj for miso and other concentrated flavours that was so overpowering it made my eyes water. The little bowl of onion consomme could easily flavoured 3 liters of soup. And the chocolate mousse was put on top of a spoonful of raw miso, it was very unpleasant. The vegetarian main was very well made though.

Good tasting menu, but feels a bit pretentious, attempting flavors beyond their capability. The duck is memorable. Excellent wine. Clean service but cheap, counter overcrowded, space not managed properly. They don’t accept cash, it wasn’t clearly communicated at the entrance. The kid at the counter looked at me like an outcast for offering cash, which was embarrassing. Note for the property: it’s not legal to refuse cash if not clearly communicated and for a valid reason. According to EU law and a 2021 European Court of Justice ruling, euro cash has legal tender status, which generally entails mandatory acceptance at full face value.
