Cape Town Social Club in Jordaan

Great food, incredible service and beautiful atmosphere.

Authentic South African fine dining!

Thank you for the perfect lunch today. Alex is a super nice host and owner of the restaurant. We had chosen the 6 course menu with wine pairing and this is definitely recommended. We are excited to come back on 20 May! Definitely recommended and a South African gem in Amsterdam. If you have ever been to South Africa you should definitely go here.

Stylish, tasty, very attentive staff

Exceptional restaurant! Really amazing dishes, presentation and service. Super friendly and professional team. So welcoming and cosy atmosphere, very highly recommend. Do try to the beef tongue pre-starter and wine pairing. We didn’t look at the 6 course menu before preferring a surprise and we were not disappointed. Well done guys!

This is my second time visiting Cape Town Social Club, and if there is anything Alex and the team do well, it is making you feel welcome, spoiled, and at home the moment you walk through the door. We had the four-course menu for lunch and ended up having the best possible last day in Amsterdam. The food, wine, and service were outstanding, and I can only recommend trying this place at least once. We will definitely be back the next time we visit Amsterdam! 😍

Fantastic restaurant with Michelin quality food! The lamb melted in your mouth and the taste combinations paired with wine were amazing. The owner, Alex, went over and above to make it such an enjoyable experience for us. Excellent South African wine selection. I would highly recommend this restaurant!

Gorgeous food and surprising wines. Top service. One of the best places I have ever eaten at.

Great food and perfect service and hospitality from the staff. Highly recommended

An exquisite experience we will remember. The friendly and attentive staff were second to none and the chefs food and presentation were excellent. The four course meal was delicious and the wine pairings (full and half pairings available) enhanced each bite. Individuals traveling to Amsterdam who appreciate great food and wine should put this on their must visit list. We will definitely return to the Cape Town Social Club.

We had an amazing evening here on all accounts, but what really stood out was the service! So friendly and personal, it really made our evening special. We will be back!!

Amazing food, amazing atmosphere! The service was so great

One of if not the best service in town! The food is delicious and the 4 course meal with a bit of biltong added to it, was more than enough. Delicious flavors, well executed, interesting. Leek, pork belly, lamb and poached pear-amazing. They also have a good wine selection and the location is very cozy.

One of the best hidden gems in Amsterdam, situated just off Leidseplein! Best value for money culinary experience by far, paired with fantastic South African wines and dishes that explode with flavour in your mouth. Living up to the true South African food and wine experience. Warm and welcoming staff who are so passionate about food and fine dining! Alex, the owner is one of the finest hosts you'll meet in hospitality, having worked 11 years myself in the industry, make sure to order the Espresso Martini after dinner, Alex is a real professional mixologist and makes the best damn Espresso Martini I've ever had! Our favourite Top Class dining experience. We've eaten at many more highly rated and expensive Michelin star restaurants around the world, yet Cape Town Social Club in our opinion is already at that level and above! Be sure to give them your dietary requirements in advance when making a reservation, reservations are required here, as they prepare each meal in advance to ensure the freshest and highest quality ingredients! We come to eat here regularly and they have such talented chefs in the kitchen with Seb and now also with the newest addition of their Venezuelan power duo couple! A must visit for any special occasion or to score points with your loved ones! 😉

Amazing food, the desert with pear was out of this world! And service was also excellent, attentive without being overbearing

Amazing meal! We had the four course chef's tasting menu and each course was delicious. Our server Alex made some expert wine pairings and was hilarious. I highly recommend this place.

Best food and service I have had in ages! We were there on a wednesdaynight and it was nice and quiet.

Came here for my birthday. Pretty good food, and good wine pairing. A bit expensive but that’s ok with the quality. Highly recommended!

What a beautiful experience. The food is excellent and in our opinion absolutely top notch for the price. Service from Sophia was wonderful too. Highly recommend.

Wonderful vibe, truly immersed in South Africa with a typical Capetonian feel. Top class cuisine and a smart South African wine menu too. We love the place, we go there often, you should too!

We had a wonderful evening and fantastic food. Host Alex created a great atmosphere and we ended the evening with the guests at the table next to us. This place lives up to its name ;) We enjoyed it!

What shall I say? Been to lots of higher rated restaurants, restaurants with michelin stars etc, but the experience and food here is unmatched. Alex and his team are so so good, friendly, funny, warm-hearted and they make you feel like having a fine dining-party with friends. Alex is also a very good mixologist, he served one of the best espresso martinis I‘ve ever had, and I had plenty ;). The 6 course diner was a feast, Charly the „water-man“ did a fantastic job. We will come back as soon as possible. Lots of love to Alex and his team!

Visiting Cape Town is always a highlight and great experience. Good food and excellent wines with a great host. Absolute our favorite restaurant. Alexander knows how to turn it into an unforgettable moment.

An unbelievable dining experience !!!!! If you are looking for amazing fine dining this is the place to go. Alex and the staff are attentive, friendly and all around a pleasure to interact with.

Food was very good! Service was okay and we had to pay a fine of €10 each for not letting them know in advance that we’re vegetarian. That was a bit disappointing because it’s nothing unusual in Amsterdam to request a vegetarian option. From that moment on it felt like we were a bit of a burden to the service team. Restaurant is lovely though and food and wine really good.

Just read the reviews by Reinout Ezinga and I couldn’t agree more with her since I just had the same experience at this place. Overall it was disappointing Experience at CTSC: Overpriced and Underwhelming A couple weeks back, I dined at CTSC, and unfortunately, my experience mirrored the frustrations expressed by Reinout Ezinga. The meal left much to be desired, both in terms of quality and value. First, the cod served to my group was not only uncooked but also lacked freshness. This resulted in a stomach upset for a couple of us over the next few days, which was truly disappointing. The flavor of the food as a whole was mediocre at best—nothing to justify the high prices the restaurant charges. The presentation was equally underwhelming, and the dishes failed to impress in terms of taste or creativity. we were charged an extra €1 per piece for bread, which felt unreasonable and this was not mentioned by the service staff , and a €8 water fee that seemed excessive for what was essentially a “water”. Overall, CTSC is overpriced for the quality of food and service provided. I won’t be returning, nor would I recommend it to others seeking a satisfying dining experience.

Heerlijk eten, fantastische wijn. Degene die reserveerde koos voor ons het 4 gangen surprise menu. Dat was echt erg lekker. Met als hoogtepunt het langzaam gegaarde lamsvlees. De sauzen waren uit de kunst. Maar ook een surprise was de post 'gratuity' op de rekening van maar liefst 87 Euro! Dat vind ik een flinke afgedwongen fooi voor een diner voor 6 personen, en dat was achteraf toch wel een smet op een verder vlekkeloze avond, met top-bediening van Sophia en collega's.

Cape Town Social Club – 4-Course Delight Menu & Wine Pairing Our evening at Cape Town Social Club was a culinary highlight that we will not soon forget. We opted for the 4-course Delight Menu with a carefully selected wine pairing, and we were completely pampered from the first dish. Each course was a work of art in itself – both in presentation and taste. The dishes offered a perfect balance between classic South African influences and modern, creative techniques. Think of surprising flavor combinations that complement each other seamlessly, without ever becoming overwhelming. Every plate told a story, and every bite was a delight. The wine pairing was the icing on the cake. Each glass of wine was presented with knowledge and passion and paired perfectly with the dishes. From fresh, fruity white wines to robust, full-bodied red wines – the selection took the flavors of the dishes to the next level and introduced us to the best of South Africa's wineries. What made the evening complete was the warm, personal service. The team radiates enthusiasm and makes you feel completely at home. The pacing between courses was just right, giving us time to enjoy every flavor and still have a wonderfully flowing evening. Cape Town Social Club offers an experience that is sophisticated, intimate and unforgettable. If you are looking for an evening full of culinary surprises, fantastic wines and top service, this is the place to be. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommended for lovers of fine dining with a South African twist!

The food was really substandard for a place of this level. Risotto ball appetizer no taste. The pear dish was not bad, but the sauce was too high in acidity and therefore not in balance and perhaps a little more could have been done with the pear. Then the cod: it was brine inedible and therefore sent back. It was resolved well and a new one was received, but this mouse was completely without taste. Fish was now mediocre; bordering on overbaked and a bit dry. Sauce not well bound and too low in taste. I think the main course of meat was a kind of brisket, it was way too dry. Vega tempeh was the worst thing of the evening. Should not be called tempeh and is simply not good in terms of structure and taste. Cheese board mediocre. Staff very friendly but not personal. Complaints were resolved ok, but a bit perfunctory. 1st wine when pairing is a sour bomb of chemicals. Alternative that we got mewoah. Sorry for the critical one review, but it just doesn't often happen that so many elements are wrong

Very friendly service who also take the time to explain everything. Food in combination with wine pairing was great! Beautiful wines. Definitely worth repeating!

We had a great evening here. Alex was super involved with the dietary requirements and the surprise I wanted to share. We even called in advance to coordinate everything properly. The other employees in the service were just so friendly that we had to get used to them at first after the service we are used to in Amsterdam. We took the 6-course menu and the dishes served were fantastic, as were the accompanying wines. I would therefore certainly not go for the 4-course menu. Then you miss 2 great dishes. Surprising and tasty combinations and everything was just right. We received very personal attention from the staff and were made to feel so welcome. Definitely a little bit of Cape Town here in Amsterdam. This restaurant is now in my top 5 favorite restaurants in Amsterdam. A real enrichment for the city.

Had a delicious meal at Cape Town Social Club! Fantastic service from Greg (who, like the rest of the staff, is from South Africa). Flavors of the food took us back to Cape Town, and in combination with delicious South African wines, this made for an amazing dinner. Highly recommended!

Had a wonderful evening with perfect service, a good six-course menu and nice matching wines.

Excellent food and staff perfect ambience we had such a wonderful time dining here we would recommend it to everyone

Amazing food, great wines and a lovely staff. Do visit if you want a wonderfull experience! As the dutch say: alsof er een engeltje op je tong piest (like an angel pieing on your tongue 😜).

Better eat before as 4 course miniature meals will leave you hungry, while extreme long time for waiting to get that next tinny meal will make you dream proper food. Fine dining does not equal hunger and 70 euro should at least guarantee proper dinner. Pitty as otherwise nice and professional service lady.

the person who served us Sophia was awesome so friendly and she was very knowledgeable about the food being served also the chefs Paola and Italo had a strong grasp of plating with their expertise in presenting the dishes. my dietary requirements were taken into account and that was very special to me.

Great night out, splendid food and drinks

What a great evening at this great restaurant. Everything was right this evening. Delicious food, top service and masterfully delicious wines. This is really highly recommended!

I recently had an amazing dining experience at Cape Town Social Club! From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed, setting the tone for an exceptional evening. The staff was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable, making us feel right at home. Each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor, showcasing fresh ingredients and thoughtful creativity. Every course brought unique combinations that truly delighted the palate, showing the chef’s skill and passion for food. The ambiance was vibrant yet relaxed, adding to the overall enjoyment of the meal. Cape Town Social Club offers a perfect balance of quality, style, and warmth. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to enjoy a memorable dining experience in Amsterdam . We can’t wait to return!

What a lekker vibe and chows! I love how they incorporated South African food, culture etc into the menu. Felt at home! And the host is such a brilliant guy. I had a special birthday dinner here. Definitely returning 😁🌟

My favorite meal in Amsterdam. DO NOT SKIP THE ESPRESSO MARTINI — best I’ve ever had. Food was unbelievable and I felt like I got a real taste of South Africa. Super friendly staff. Can’t say enough good things. MUST VISIT

This place is a hidden gem! The food is absolutely delicious, and the staff is super friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere is cozy yet vibrant, making it perfect for any occasion. Every dish was well-prepared and full of flavor. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great dining experience!

Everything was perfect! The service was super friendly and attentive. He even gave us tips for South Africa and safari tours. The food was very unique and delicious. I highly recommend the duck and the cod! Please do yourself a favor and try the espresso martini with dessert. All in all we will be back and are very grateful for such an unforgettable evening!

Great food and wine! Excellent service, took care of all my requirements. Great opportunity to taste South Africa :D

Outstanding in every sense of the word. These guys (and gals) are true professionals. We were in Amsterdam for the first leg of our honeymoon and the staff at Cape Town Social Club made our experience so special. We did the 6 course tasting menu with wine pairing and everything was absolutely delicious!

Nous avons été accueillis avec gentillesse et avons pu accéder par chance à une table non réservée. Nous avons passé une excellente soirée grâce au service (imposé) avec amuse bouche puis 4 plats et dessert en ayant choisi des vins au verre. Personnel présent mais discret, un service parfait La cuisine est délicieuse de saveurs variées, les assiettes arrivent chaudes (un plus qui se fait rare et que nous avons beaucoup apprécié). Les cuissons sont parfaites, les associations inventives et pertinentes ! Merci pour cette soirée réussie!

Lovely atmosphere, chill and cosy, service is really professional and nice and the food is amazing.

First time we were here. Very intimate restaurant with a very nice atmosphere. Really nice and good service, delicious wines and beautiful, surprising food. Absolutely recommended!!

Absolutely amazing food, the best wines, and lovely staff. Can’t wait to come back!

I had an incredible experience at Cape Town Social Club. I was slightly delayed coming from the Airport and they accommodated me without any hesitation. The courses were so well paced and the chef has curated an amazing menu packed with such phenomenal flavours!. The service staff extremely clued up on everything from food to drink, Zandie and his front of house team are truly fantastic! The atmosphere was amazing and the decor of the restaurant was so aesthetically pleasing! I had a great dinner and was definitely an experience for the books! Being in hospitality myself I would 11/10 recommend and I will definitely be going again next time I visit Amsterdam!

We were recommended this restaurant by friends so we decided to go with my partner to try it out. The service and staff were really great we were welcomed and taken care of very well the entire night. The food was very tasty we loved it (we chose 6 courses) I couldn’t drink alcohol unfortunately that night but they had a very nice non alcoholic sparkling wine that was delicious and dry so tasting the same as a normal sparkling wine. Price is really great for the quality and good vibe that you get. I recommend this place. We will be back :)

Excellent and personal service from start to finish, great atmosphere, and at least 3 of the 6 dishes impressed while the remaining ones were of course still very good. We also had the wine pairing which was good, albeit a bit overpriced at 70 euros for 6 slightly-more-than-half glasses. It could have been fine if every single glass was over the moon, but we only felt that about 2-3 of them, and the rest were "just" good. They were very open about the ability to switch a wine out if it wasn't to your liking, which is nice to offer, however, I am not gonna go through that hassle as long as the wine is good. And charging 4 euros per person for water feels ridiculous at a venue of this caliber. Would come back, but skip the pairing!

So good! We have been to some incredible Michelin rated restaurants before, and a very famous South african one in Nice, that's absolutely amazing, and we think that Cape Town Social Club is better. Cannot wait to go back.

Exceptional Fine Dining; The food was great, especially when paired with the recommended selection of surprising wines. The staff managed to elevate the whole experience with their excellent service: it is clear they pride themselves on their typical South-African hospitality and live up to their own high standards.

This cozy little restaurant is a perfect hidden gem in a narrow Amsterdam street. You are not eating at a restaurant here, it feels like you are eating at a friend’s house and you are treated as such by the entire staff. Amazing food, great wines and wonderful service, provided by passionate people.

Absolutely amazing experience!!! It was our first time trying South African cuisine. The hospitality and service was exceptional, Alex and his crew took great care of us. They were very welcoming, friendly, and genuinely proud to share their dishes, wine-selection, and stories with us. Every plate was extremely tasty and satisfying in their own way and so were the wine-pairings. It was admiring to see how passionate Alex is about his restaurant, his dishes, and his wines. We had an amazing time and would 200% recommend !! Thank you again Alex and the team for a great night 🥂

One of the best new restaurants in Amsterdam that opened last year. I have been here now 3 times. The extremely friendly and knowledgeable South African staff is a true gem, the food is delicious and the price for it all is reasonable. Will for sure be back ! Keep up the good work.

Went for a Saturday lunch and had the 4-course menu with a few of their optional add-ons. Food was amazing - every dish was delicious, creative, well-balanced and beautiful put together! Wines were all amazing and paired well, a great introduction to South African wines. Service was very friendly and laid-back but completely on-point. I have recommended to friends already and look forward to going back again!

Wat een ervaring! Wat was dit toch een prachtige avond met fantastisch eten en geweldige wijnen! Na een paar vragen kwamen er wat geweldige anekdotes uit zuid Afrika en waar ik echt moest geen eten als ik er weer heen ging. Voelde echt alsof ik Alex en sophie al jaren kon! Kan niet wachten dat ik er weer zit

Great find in the heart of Amsterdam. Choice of 4 or 6 courses, no à la carte options, but great care for special requests. A priori classic ingredients - ceviche, pork neck, chicken - but amazingly prepared and surprising flavors. Pricey but worth it if you want a quiet delicious night out. All South African wine list, for all tastes.

We had a great evening at this restaurant just a stone's throw from Leidseplein. Alex and Sophie know how to provide the dishes with beautiful South African wines and conviviality. The food that the two top chefs in the kitchen manage to put on the table is fantastic. The pork neck and the peach dish were our favorites. And don't forget the skewers with beef tongue. Phenomenal! We will definitely come back!

What an amazing experience! We were a group of 11 celebrating a special event, and had several dietary restrictions, but the Cape Town Social Club team was super flexible and accommodated everything for us. The food is delicious, the staff is awesome and very helpful, and the atmosphere is relaxed and distinct. 100% recommended!!!

THIS IS THE BEST RESTAURANT IN AMSTERDAM WITHOUT A MICHELIN STAR! My gf and I visited here the night before my birthday and what a way to see it out. Alex the owner, along with our waiter Greg were so welcoming and engaging. The food, presentation and wine pairings were exceptional and very good value. When we come back to Amsterdam, this will be the first place we will come to and the first place we will recommend to friends.

Wow! Food and service exemplary! The food is just incredible, such intense flavours and super interesting dishes, and it’s the warmest welcome and most incredible wine pairing. Obvs as a chamoniard I loved the Chamonix cab franc from franchoek, but this has been a real revelation of the best of SA produce (to someone that lived there for years). We will definitely be back! Thank you!!

Is so good, with not expensive price, everything is great

The service in the restaurant was absolutely perfect. The waiters were incredibly friendly and accommodating and made for a pleasant evening. The food was excellent, as was the ambience.

We booked into this restaurant with a group of friends and our expectations were far exceeded. Exquisite dishes, fantastic wines and warm, sincere and enthusiastic service. Rarely have you laughed so hard in a restaurant where the other guests also picked up the atmosphere perfectly. At one point almost everyone was talking to everyone, Americans (were on honeymoon), Germans and Dutch a cacophony of fun, interspersed with those delicious dishes. Bravo and congratulations for this hospitality!

What a gem of a restaurant! The atmosphere was warm, friendly and relaxing with impeccable service from Martin and Ross. Chef Italo and Paola prepared exquisite courses, the best we've experienced in the Netherlands so far. Great food, great drinks, amazing service and a true South African atmosphere. We will be dreaming about our duck course for years to come. Thank you CTSC!!!

A lovely meal packed with South African flavours, mixed with tastes from around the world. The service is excellent and personable, a rare find in Amsterdam. And of course the wine, no South African meal is complete without the wine. Thank you CTSC for a lovely evening out and the extra effort to accommodate my dietary restrictions

Very tasty food and delicious wines. We had the 6 course menu and, although not super surprising, everything was really well executed and tasty. The wine list is modest but full of good wines, you can find something to match every dish, but it is quite expensive (many wines are around 15 euros per glass). The service is excellent; attentive, pleasant and friendly.

Had an incredible dining experience at the restaurant tonight! Each of the six courses was outstanding, and the wine pairing was exceptional. I especially loved how the dishes fused different cuisines, beautifully reflecting the rich culture of South Africa. A big thank you to the team for doing such a fantastic job sharing the stories behind each dish and wine selection. Highly recommended!

What an incredible dining experience! Everything was cooked to perfection and the flavours were nothing short of cosmic! The staff are amazing and go above and beyond! We had 2 vegetarians with us! We did let CTSC know before hand and they catered some outstanding alternatives! The wine recommendations and knowledge was next level! Thanks to the CTSC team for a night that we will never forget! Kisses my darlings!

We had dinner there last Friday. Amazing place to visit, food was delicious, perfect pairing of wines. However, the biggest compliment goes to the team and in particular to Alex and Sophia. What a level of humour, fun, energy and service!!

My wife and I, we had a wonderful dinner Cape Town Social Club. The food was excellent - various tasteful creations. I enjoyed the wine pairing. Big compliments to the chef! And the service was great - what a nice guy. Thank you very much!

Almost more staff than tables, but the food was delicious and the wines were delicious!

Awesome food and service! Dont think we've had nicer service at any restaurant in Amsterdam :) Food was amazing!

Amazing food, great setting, attentive service!

I loved the 4-course dinner with a wonderful wine pairing. The atmosphere and interior were tasteful but not too formal. The selection of South African wine and the authentic South African team serving the delicious food made the experience special. The service was excellent, and we had a fantastic evening. Highly recommended!

This was such a dream! Loved every minute of my time at the Cape Town social club. As a South African, the flavours of the food and the wine pairings were on point. The service was impeccable and I couldn’t recommend it more. A must visit for everyone spending time in Amsterdam.

It's unfortunate that the five stars I give you are not a Michelin star. We started by entering through the door and Martin welcomed us with enthusiasm and joy. He presented us to the first table in front of the Chef, who he introduced us to, Italo; who gave us a warm welcome and invited us to sit down. We ordered a pink Champagne to start. The first course “Beef tongue skewers”. Second course: “Ceviche”, exceptional, the flavor between the citrus, oils and textures of what makes up its sauce is simply exceptional. Third course: “Duck”, the meat was at the point that bordered on perfection and a sauce that invited you to continue. Fourth course: Piri Piri Chicken, a roasted flavor with citrus accompanied with arepas and guasacaca from Venezuela, which recalls the fusion between South African and Latin American culture. We close with a dessert that invites you not to stop tasting these wonderful flavors. Thank you very much to Mr. Italo for allowing us to taste a wonderful delicacy such as your menu. To Martín's attention, offer us the indicated drinks for each dish, explain the composition of what makes up the pairing, provide a 10-level attention that is only seen in a superior 5-star Restaurant. The bathrooms: I think their inclusivity and hygiene are great. Thank you for this experience.

I had an exceptional experience at the Cape Town Social Club! We opted for the four-course menu with wine pairings, and every dish was delightful, complemented perfectly by the high-quality wines. The highlight, however, was the outstanding service. Our main waiter, Greg, ensured we had everything we needed throughout the evening. Upon arrival, we realized that except for the start and dessert every dish contained meat, which my girlfriend doesn't particularly enjoy. The restaurant graciously accommodated her by substituting one of her dishes with fish at the last minute, which we greatly appreciated.

Amazing food, great knowledgeable and attentive staff highly recommend. We had the 6 course tasting with the wine pairing and added the extra biltong couldn’t recommend more

We chose a 4 course meal and went for a white and red wine of which the red was recommended by waitress Sophia. We experienced the main waiter Martin as a bit too much, was trying too hard. Personally I’m not a fan of using my first name while being served. He Interrupted us just a little too often. It seemed like his extreme friendliness tried to compensate with the portion size and price-quality. We had a nice evening but would not return. + Navy blue styling of the restaurant. + Waiters Sophia and Ross. + explanation of the dishes. + oysters and ceviche and bread with butter were very nice. - Portion size (still hungry when I got home) - Constant water top up - Bright light coming from the oven in the kitchen - €8 for water service - tables were placed a little too close to each other. - The floor in the toilet was wet (mixed toilets) For a similar price, but better food/service experience I suggest trying Graphite near Rembrandtplein.

Cape Town Social Club has a special place in my heart - the food is delicious, has great wines but the most important has the home feeling. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful and have passion for what they are doing. Will definitely come back multiple times ❤️

Via heerlijk het 6 gangen menu geboekt. Ik las in recensies over een pijpenla als interieur, maar dat viel gelukkig erg mee, inderdaad meer lang dan breed, maar ook heel sfeervol ingericht, we voelen ons meteen thuis. Zoals op de website aangekondigd is de voertaal (zoals zo vaak in Amsterdam) alleen Engels. Maar wel heel hartelijk en met oprechte belanstelling. Ook heerlijk Zuid Afrikaanse wijnen als pairing bij het eten is zeer aan te bevelen. Wij hadden vanuit onze Zuid Afrikaanse ervaringen gehoopt op struisvogel, maar ook al ontbrak die, het smaakte allemaal geweldig.

I mean wow!! Everything is amazing! Food, staff and owners 🫶

Cool little restaurant. Loved the dark navy interiors. We went for the 4 course menu - delicious plates and great portions. The dessert could have been better (the white thing is way too sugary). Service was outstanding (Ross). I gave the atmosphere just 3 because the AC was too cold all the time and the lights were too bright. Dimmed would be cosier;)

My entire experience here was absolutely AMAZING!! The food, the wine, the service, the sweet staffs, everything was just perfect. I was so satisfied with the four courses. The biltong here is a must try too! My best memory in Amsterdam and I definitely will book in again when I travel back!!

The overall experience at this restaurant was amazing. We were warmly welcomed by Sophie and Martin, who expertly introduced the rest of their team. We went for the 6 course dining experience and every dish was surprising and incredibly tasty. I have eaten at many of the top restaurants in Cape Town where this restaurant draws inspiration from and I can gladly say this restaurant is on par, if not ahead of all of those.

What an amazing experience! The food was spectacular, the wines .. oh my goodness, the wines.. beautiful selection of rare finds, and then the cherry on top; the incredibly welcoming and friendly team! We had an incredible good time and will for sure be back! Thank you for the amazing service, great food and superb wines! 👌🏻❤️

First time experiencing south african food. An incredible four course dish menu with a fine pairing of wines. Extraordinary presentation and service. A trully amazing experience to repeat for sure.

Best SA restaurant in Amsterdam, cozy and comfortable, great staff and amazing food! Highly recommended.

If you are looking to experience something unique in Amsterdam, then you're in for a real treat at the CTSC. The atmosphere is warm and intimate, friendly staff who are knowledgable and attentive without being in your face. The wine list boasts an extraordinary list of some of the finest South African tastemakers. Reading your way through the snacks and food menu will get your taste buds dancing before you've even seen the first dish. We did the 4 course tasting menu, shared a cold bottle of white and finished off with the most wonderful desert. This team are clearly passionate about their offering and make you feel just as you should as a guest. Comfortable, informed, relaxed and satisfied. Well done to Alex, Seb and their team of professionals. We'll definitely be back, couldn't recommend this place any more.

The food was delicious, and the service was outstanding. I can't wait to return!

Get what you pay for here. Great atmosphere and amazing food that’s well thought out and explained by the waiters. If you want to eat large portions and are not interested in high quality food, maybe not the place for you. But my wife and I loved it and would be back if we lived in the area.

Absolutely incredible 🥰 Chef Sebastian really knows what he’s doing in the kitchen, along with his valuable team The service was incredible! Overall amazing experience Cannot give them enough praise Highly recommended

Best service in Amsterdam! The food was delicious and they create a wonderful dining experience not just a dinner. I would recommend it to anyone

Hidden gem in Amsterdam! Super good food and unprecedented good service (so good that it almost makes you uncomfortable because you are not used to it). Delicious matching South African wines. Top tent.

We had a fantastic night here. We did the wine makers evening with Luddite wines. The food was phenomenal, service so warm and friendly & the wine out of this world. Would highly recommend. Thank you to the whole team. Incredible job.
