China Sichuan Restaurant / Chengdu in Burgwallen-Oude Zijde

It was a heaven for spicy food lovers. I’ve tried maoxuewang, xiaolongbao, cold vermicelli, mouth-watering chicken, the portions were generous. Very satisfying dinner😋

Really delicious food and a good portion as well

Most recommended Tibetan and Chinese restaurants in the heart of Amsterdam, foods are very delicious and traditional, it’s located just few blocks away from the very famous museum (Wax Museum) Madame Tussauds in the Centraal Station of Amsterdam! Thank you for your warm hospitality and great food!!

Very disappointing dining experience. The food tasted very average and not worth the price. The menu clearly stated that there was an aperitif, but the waiter said there was no aperitif, which felt like a perfunctory experience. I wanted to take away the food I couldn't finish, but they only gave us two lunch boxes and told us to "figure out the rest ourselves". The overall service attitude was also very unprofessional. I don't recommend this place at all. I won't come again.

Very good Chinese food for Indian vegetarians. Very good service too. Friendly and indulging

The food was tasty & excellently prepared . Service was prompt and steaming hot. Among my best ever veg food in Amsterdam

The food there was really, really good! I had the Mandarin duck – which was breaded and served with a sweet sauce – but it stayed crispy for a long time! I actually wanted to order it spicier, but the waiter advised me against it, as it would have ruined the authenticity of the dish and the sweetness that the dish stands for. I think it's very good! So I ate it "normally." Very, very tasty! Definitely recommended! However, the prices are too high.

A huge selection of authentic Chinese food. Very tasty.

We had the chrispy duck 🦆 , kung pow chicken and chicken noodles 🐔🍜 and it was delicious! Recommend if you are looking for tasty authentic food in a great atmosphere! The service was good amd my daughter was really happy with them.

Deeeelicious!!! Worth the price!

An overall 5* Sichuan restaurant with excellent tasty foods and best services. Highly recommended.

Great restaurant, be careful the plates are generous and we didn't finish everything: it was excellent

An exceptional culinary experience! This restaurant offers authentic Sichuanese cuisine, rich in flavors and spices. Each dish is a true explosion of tastes, perfectly balanced. The service is impeccable, with a welcoming team passionate about the cuisine they offer. The warm and friendly ambiance of the restaurant adds to the experience. If you are a fan of spicy food, this is a place not to be missed!

The twice-cooked pork is really delicious The food is served very quickly and the lady boss is very nice and enthusiastic.

Food was really authentic and great. We love it and every guest we brought to try complimented their food.

Surprisingly, this Chinese restaurant is very authentic in old town Amsterdam. The decoration is very Chinese as well. The spiciness and ingredients are very tasty and good. Overall, we had a good experience.

The Asian-faced male waiter downstairs in this branch looks as if he owes him money and has a very bad attitude. The boss should replace him as soon as possible. Keeping him will definitely affect the business of this store. I walked more than 100 meters to another branch. The waiters were much better and the food was absolutely outstanding.

Excellent food, good atmosphere, reasonable price

Super Chinese restaurant. Reasonable prices. Delicious and large portions

Great taste and good portion size. Very quick too.

Wow what delicious food! Favorite in Amsterdam

A very delicious Chinese restaurant with a great atmosphere. I highly recommend it. I tried the cucumber salad,hot pot beef dish, and the fried rice – all of them were amazing. Definitely recommend this place!

We had a great time and no waiting however be careful it’s very spicy

Great Food, Authentic. Very friendly Service.

Excelent food and service. We had a great experience

Absolutly delicious, hardly recomanded 👍

The food is so good! I ordered a duck and fried rice, it has so much flavor. The server is so polite too and professional

the menu is as long as a dictionary, and that certainly is a red flag. However the food still tasted nice and authentic

Great place for a nice Asian meal!

Very good food, ambiance cool, and a great choice ! We spent a really nice time and are very well. We took 3 differents dishes to share and it was really good. Thank you very much.

Lovely flavours, friendly and polite staff. Loved it, would recommend ‼️

The prawns were really good the noodles were also like 5 stars. The service was really nice,they said I can eat really good with chopsticks. They gave me some mints on the end. I am definitely gonna come back 😝

Careful, they don’t do take-out when it is busy, I drove all the way for nothing. Excellent food, a variety of Chinese Sichuan and Tibettan dishes, all well prepared. Many of the dishes are spicy. The set menus provide good value. Good variety of vegetarian dishes, and a vegetarian menu where you can choose of any of the vegetarian dishes. Among my favourites are omelette soup, veggie hotpot (🌶️🔥), palace green beans, and kung pao eggplant

All time favourite restaurant near the redlight district of Amsterdam. Tried varieties of fried rice and chicken dishes here. The taste is so good and one of the authentic Sichuan food served here. Must try place if you are in Amsterdam. The price is a bit expensive but worth trying. Recommended.

Ate here on the recommendation of a friend, who ate here at least 50 times, it was okay, for the price a larger portion could be used and it is nice to indicate that the photos and certain dishes are very different from what you get, I ate here yesterday for my birthday, I give it a 6

Another little gem in Amsterdam great value for great food staff couldn't do anymore to make sure we enjoyed our time there and our meal will definitely be back next time I'm in amsterdam

Great selection, cool menu with high quality photos, delicious food, good service

Delicious😋 At first I was worried that eating Maoxuewang would cause diarrhea, but in fact I didn’t have any problems after eating it😆I was addicted and very happy🥳The hotel is beautiful and the staff is very friendly🍻

The hot pot was amazing and could feed 2-4 people. Szechuan is prominent on the menu and they deliver the heat in a great way.

Ufffff, this place was amazing. I realize the picture I posted isn’t particularly helpful, but it’s just to show the disaster that was left after we ate to our heart’s content. So good, delicious. Recommend highly.

One of the best Chinese meals I’ve had. Outstanding.

I haven't eaten so badly in a long time! 😡Everything looks really rancid, but we were really hungry. There were dead flies on the lamp and the map looked very yellowed. The food was inedible! The staff was friendly but couldn't make up for the poor food. We didn't even begin to finish any of the dishes and left early, disappointed.

Acceptable chinese food in the center of Amsterdam. Serving was fast. The price is a bit expensive for the side dishes.

This is one of those places that attract tourists. Be careful with this site, they are not honest, they scam tourists when they see that their level of English is not good and they cannot defend themselves. If you have basic English, don't go, they will trick you and act crazy.

Quick and friendly service, delicious food for a fair price

We have been in Amsterdam for 1 week, we have been to many restaurants in the area and they were great... Argentinian, Italian, Indian... today it was Asian... this one seemed good, it had a good atmosphere, good decoration... but the truth is that we have felt very cheated. We had great dishes on the tables next to us and we saw the menu and the reasonable price. But since our English is bad. We have decided to order a menu for 2 people, so as not to complicate our lives. A menu deceives giris, who cannot complain. On the menu it appeared at €35. Which consisted of 2 soups, a plate with 4 mini spring rolls, a bowl of cooked rice, and 4 mini plates but mini... tapa size, (to share) 1 of boiled vegetables, 1 of Peking style chicken, another of beef with vegetables and another duck (5 pieces of duck). Too bad I don't have photos, I didn't imagine such a robbery. The menu supposedly had dessert, coffee or ice cream, but they didn't bring it, they sent us downstairs to pay. We have ordered 2 pints of Heineken, they give you 2 cans. The painful €82. We got our eyes like owls... we told them it couldn't be... and they told us that the menu was 35 per person. I think they have deceived us, well I say so, because the amount of food they have served us cannot have that price. I just wish you luck and karma.

Very clean and good dishes. If you are a tourist it is a good place to eat and not spend many euros.

On Thursday we had a team outing and after a day of exploring Amsterdam we had dinner at Sichuan Restaurant Lange Niezel. We were a group of 17 people and the restaurant really took amazing care of us. The food was delicious and the staff was really nice. Everyone enjoyed it! Definitely recommend this place. I will be back.

Bad food. Bad service. Turning away customers at 22.10 despite being advertised as open till 23.00. Relented and agreed to serve, but told, “You’ll have to be quick.” Hot and sour soup was neither; bland with random vegetables and unlike any others. Sizzling pork lacked flavour and was swimming in oil with overcooked veg; completely missing the point of a tepan dish. Starter and main arrived simultaneously and was pushed to pay midway through eating so they could close the tills and get sorted at 10.40, still 20 mins before “close”. Unrepentant when challenged because I didn’t understand that when you run a restaurant it was important to make sure the staff got finished early and unmoved by suggestion that they might want to work on the customer experience. Truly awful.

The waiters are very very rude. The waiter reluctantly answers the questions we ask with food in his mouth. When I ask about vegetarian food, they respond with an eye roll. Very bad service!

Great place, something for everyone 😁 I recommend it to anyone who likes oriental, strong flavors 😋

The dumplings were smallest we’ve ever seen. Mapo tofu was super salty. The Sichuan restaurant on Zeedijk is 10 times better than this.

I ordered chicken soup but what came out was soup-like. I don’t quite understand why there are colored peppers, carrots, corn, and cowpeas in it. Is it just because the color looks good? The base of the red oil dumplings is too sweet, and the husband and wife's lung slices are seasoned to emphasize numbness. Overall, they are edible but not recommended.

The restaurant looked good, we have been 4 persons, ordered 4 different meals (each meal about 20€), food came within 10 minutes and looked good but we have been really disappointed - we are not picky usually but all meals tasted kind of the same, very very fatty and oily, my noodle soup was almost only oil and way too salty to eat. We tried the meals from each other and after we had enough we asked to pay and to get a discount because it really was not good, the waiter discussed with us that they eat it like this in china and claimed nobody in china eats the soup or the sauce of the dishes and because we ate most of it (we tried every meal from each other to compare) that’s unfair that we don’t want to pay the full price and they will call the police if we don’t pay - in the end we got a small discount but the food and the discussing that wasn’t worth it in the end. I love Chinese food but that was the worst I have ever tried. Don’t know where all the good reviews come from, maybe they have a new chef or something but none of us would recommend to go there except you like food soaking in oil and fat.

Brilliant. So well made. And I am shocked with the available variety

Phenomenal. Just phenomenal. Food is just perfect. Mongolian beef is sublime, sweet & sour pork was heavenly. Service is wonderful. Highly highly recommend. Will certainly be back for more.

It was so bad I bought take a way and they brought me leftovers

I cannot believe they had the audacity to lie about what we ordered. You can be the judge between what we ordered vs what they served to us. Foods were cold and definitely can be improved in taste and portion size. Definitely wouldn’t recommend any of my friends and family to go there! In the picture, there are no peanuts and the dish they served to us are full of peanuts. Also the color of the meats are different. They refused us to return the dish and lying that it looked exactly like the picture. Even a 5 year old can tell the difference. What a scam and poor customer service.

Extremely expensive europeanized food, not worth the price for the amount of food that it is.

EXQUISITE DELICIOUS TASTE EVERYTIME! GOOD COZY VIBES AND A SUPER KIND STAFF! MAKES YOU FEEL AT HOME AND WANT TO VISIT AGAIN!🫶🏾 IF YOU ARE IN AMSTERDAM AND LOOKING FOR TASTY FOOD + A PRICELESS EXPERIENCE, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE 👍🏾❤️‍🔥

Food is pretty good but I would say it's a bit expensive😅 The servers don't really seem to care and it's weird that although you make reservation they don't check

Food was really good, but service was HORRIBLE thanks to this one waitress who acted like she was doing us a favor by serving us. She was unnecessarily rude, and her attitude ruined our whole experience. We entered at 10 pm and she said they would shut at 11 pm so it was almost time for last order. We were fine with that as we just wanted a quick dinner so we sat, but then she proceeded to rush us into ordering, MOCKED us for wanting to order dumplings (apparently it takes a while to make which is very understandable but that could have been told nicely) and acted like she was paying US to eat there. When the food arrived it tasted quite good so that made up for a bit but if you are about to close and cannot take any more customers just say so?? It’s not that hard, we would’ve just gone someplace else. Such a shame because this restaurant would’ve been a definite revisit otherwise.

Amazing food, well seasoned, deliciously cooked, with great vegetarian options. I highly recommend this place. As a local, I recommend

very good restaurant the portions are plentiful

Highly recommended place, the soups are delicious and abundant, very nice place and very friendly.

Was left with this view for 10 minutes and the food is just ok, not match with the price.

Delicious food. Pricey, also pay for the nasi and rice separately

The spicy fish was absolute heaven.

Super tasty food for a competitive price

It's very tasty food, i have to say. Service is kind of slower, and prices are litlebit high. I prefer to eat in a Chinese restaurant when I am somewhere abroad and I miss that friendly and warm atmosphere here. But food was tasty.

Super tasty food with super fast service. Amsterdam prices.

Restaurant with an excellent quality menu. Unusual in the proposal and creation of the dishes

Good food bad service and very pricey rice or noodles does not come with the main course. Does not look to be rum by Chinese staff dissatisfied.

Simple advice, shouldnt take booking for 1pm , when the restaurant opens at 1:30pm

Superb, Tasty Traditional Chinesse Food Very clean, friendly staff. Large portions Highly recomed Everything I love their Spicy Pork, With House special fried rice.

Delicious. This is my favourite Chinese in town. The food could imo be a little more spicy, but that's the only improvement that could be made. The staff is lovely too!

Was very surprised at the quality of food at this restaurant! I made the reservation online as the reviews were good and became hesitant when we neared the location as it seemed very touristy, but the food was authentic, fresh, and served quickly. The staff were super attentive as well, despite us sitting on the mezzo floor. Highly recommend the sweet and sour sesame chicken. Was crispy with the right amount of sauce. The eggplant dish had amazing gravy. And the pork had some nice salty black beans. We ate enough for the meal and got leftovers to take home. Would definitely return.

Food was delicious. It is not super spicy for those who love spicy food. The dishes are designed to be shared so it was good that we went in a group of four and got to taste a good few things on their menu. We loved the Peking duck! Service was lovely as well :)

Different flavors for all types, from mild to hot and some extra hot. Great affordable price to share and nice drinks menu as well. Small and cozy have to make a booking as it fills up very quickly. A must have on your trip to Amsterdam.

A Chinese restaurant I stop by every time I go to Amsterdam. It seems that the cooking skills are at a high level as they are able to bring out the flavor quite well without using too much spice. Aside from the fact that the streets are a bit dangerous(?) because it's near the red light district, it's hard to find a Chinese restaurant like this in Europe. However, Chinese liquor other than beer is very expensive.

Authentic sichuan, very good, fast, friendly, would definitely come again.

Extensive menu and great service. Food was delicious and flavourful. I will say I did find it a little bit pricey. A plate of green beans was just under €20. 1L of still water was €8. Atmosphere was nice, we had some room around us and the music made it feel a little bit more classy. I highly recommend the Chengdu Dan Dan noodles and palace green beans.

Really nice experience overall, however a bit pricey.

たまたま入った店だったんですが、あんまり期待してなかったので、あまりの美味しさに驚きました！ 牛肉入りの焼きそばと、炒飯を食べましたが、ボリュームもあり、コメもパラパラで、かなりいけてます！

ふらっと入った綺麗めな四川料理屋さん、味付けが求めていた物でとても美味しかったです。 チャーハンやスープはちょうどいい薄味でヨーロッパの濃い味の日々だったのでコレコレ‼︎と嬉しくなりました♪

Perfect spot for an after hours meal. Good portions and accessible prices. Recommended 👍

Cosy and beautifully decorated restaurant with delicious Sichuan food! I went to Chengdu a few years ago and this place just brings me back there. Will come again if I’m craving for spicy Asian food.

Everything was so good!! Love the food a lot, went there twice during our trip in amsterdam.

A heads up before you eat here - unlike any other decent restaurant they will not provide tap water for the table, no matter how many other drinks or what food you buy, they do however sell 1 liter bottles of water at €8.00. We spent well over €100 for a couple of people with no alcohol and 2 normal drinks purchased. Won't fall into that trap again.

some of the best chinese food ive had

Yum yum yum yum yum! This is most probably the best Chinese restaurant I’ve ever tried in Europe. The food is authentic. There’re so many options. Some local Sichuan dishes are not even available at a restaurant outside Sichuan in China but you can find them here. The menu is extensive and professional. I am very surprised! The service is great and accommodating. The only downside is that there’re flies flying around the tables and we had to keep waving them away. The floor can be wet on a rainy day and there’s no mat at the entrance for the customers to dry their shoes. If they can solve these issues, it would be perfect!

We went to this place with our Chinese friend from Sichuan province. We ordered around 7-8 dishes to share (Chinese way) and all was sooo good. Our friend also confirmed it was good and quiet authentic (she had couple of notes though😊). Their menu is indeed extensive, the longest I’ve seen in my life. Located right in the city centre, it was packed when we were there. Beware that many of the dishes are at least a little bit spicy (it’s Chinese food after all), check with waiters and order green tea to come along

Every time we come to Amsterdam, we eat here at least once. This place is outstanding. Flavours are off the charts. Amazing, friendly staff. Love the deco. The most magnificent menu book I have ever seen.

Bitte vorher reservieren. Wenn man Glück hat kommt man sofort an den Tisch ansonsten warten sag ich nur

I love it, for a place in the city center where everything is overrated, this was a nice surprise

Amazing food at an unsuspecting spot! Very tasty and quick. Must say that the menu might be a read as it is quite big.

Good food, chicken is spicy beware!

Leider sehr sehr viel scharfes essen, nicht scharfe Speisen nur zwei Stück und nicht gut! Service war sehr gelangweilt, das Ambiente abgerockt, alt und voll klein....

Read the other reviews (ok I am not Chinese) and we decided to give it a try. The food was good and better than most other Chinese food that I have eaten before . We were very surprised and delighted. So was delicious and warm, same with the dumplings. All the main dishes met our expectations or beyond. We are thinking of going back tomorrow. Can recommend
