Choux in Nieuwmarkt/Lastage

The food was good, but the wines they serve to go with the different dishes had definitely a vinegary taste, in other words, they were terrible. I am from Italy, and it seemed to me that I was drinking the cheapest house wine.

Stopped for a,quick lunchtime snack. Tried bitter bites for first time and they were great. The service was well above average so worth a visit

Surprising, original, and relaxed. Dishes prepared with courage and enthusiasm, truly innovative and distinctive. This is truly one of the best places of the year, and it's well deserved that they've received a star. A lovely, spacious layout, excellent service, and innovative. We'll definitely be eating here again :-)

Great place for those who are willing to discover and be challenged by flavours both of food and wine. Staff is knowledgeable so let them guide you through your evening.

Great restaurant! Nice young energetic team. chefs come to the table to explain the dishes, I always like that. Food is well thought of and versatile. A lot of surprises and very seasonal. On top of that affordable and very tasty. And that combined with a great variety of beautiful natural wines. A great all in all experience!

We arrived with no expectations and left pleasantly surprised. Perhaps one of the best restaurants I've ever eaten at (the quality and aroma of the flavors, in my opinion, are superior to some of the Michelin-starred restaurants I've tried). Excellent food and very refined dishes, a balanced menu, very good service, and very knowledgeable and friendly waiters. Congratulations!!

I found everything delicious and creative, with vegetables taking center stage. A few of my dinner companions thought it all tasted too much like appetizers. Go ahead and try it and see what you think.

Fine vegan menu, but also good menus for everybody. Like the building up of the 5 course menu. Was seated near the kitchen, great to see everybody working hard on our great menu. Still great a year later.

Great, good service, exciting cuisine and a relaxed vibe!

A vegetable forward experience. Very innovative use of mushrooms and vegetables in a super taste explosion meal. Superb service. Immensely enjoyable if you’re open minded to not eating meat. Unconventional- no menus, very little meat.

Had a business dinner here which was super lovely! I wish the meal could have been a bit faster in pace as we ended up being there for almost 4 hours, but the amazing food made up for it!

From the moment we walked in, we felt welcome. The staff is not only incredibly friendly but also clearly very knowledgeable. Their passion for their craft shines through in both the service and the wine recommendations. The 5-course menu offered a wonderful variety of vegetarian and fish dishes, each with surprising combinations and refined presentation.

A new experience for me with these food with flower. Surprisingly tasty too.

Great menu in a relaxed atmosphere with very good service—we would come back anytime.

We were really looking forward to this meal since we heard good things and had high expectations- and Choux did not disappoint. I even made the mistake of assuming all dishes would be vegetarian (not true) and they accommodated me last minute which was incredible. All the staff we interacted with were excellent! Special shout out to Igor and their customer service- it was above and beyond :) The food was full of flavour, with really creative combinations which are rare to find in plant first cooking. All the dishes were so beautifully presented, and staff took their time explaining them to us which we appreciated. I only have the picture of the first course because we genuinely were just took busy enjoying all the others the moment they arrived!

It was a great experience and time at Choux. Especially, their vegetarian forward dishes made our evening. The selection of ingredient, freshness and the presentation was great. We did wine pairing as well and the wines were great and well paired with the dishes served. Many kudos to the people who served, it felt an experience at home with friends. So chill, so comforting yet very delicious. Loved it!

Very tasty coffee, I recommend it!

I have tried sea food and it was tasty....

Simplemente debes saber lo que obtendrás antes de decidirte por este lugar. Mi agente de viajes lo recomendó, y fue un completo fracaso. Si hubieran publicado algún tipo de menú o incluso fotos en su sitio web, tal vez habría tenido tiempo de evitar este desastre. Nos sentamos y pedimos una bebida (no hay barra libre), así que nos ofrecen una ginebra, que no es mi estilo. Luego pido champán, pero el camarero me lo desaconseja y me pide algo que me recomiendan: básicamente, una mala sidra. Vamos a la comida. No llegues esperando obtener proteínas. En los 5 platos solo teníamos unos calamares fríos entre nuestras diversas verduras insípidas. Nos reíamos cuando llegó el momento de pedir el postre sabiendo que solo podía ser un sorbete de bayas exóticas dados sus ingredientes limitados: ¡bingo! Si quieres una pretenciosa obra de arte en bandeja, hazlo. De lo contrario, puede elegir literalmente cualquier otro lugar de la ciudad por menos de 100 dólares por persona.

We hadden een geweldige avond. Het menu is verassend, veelzijdig en super lekker. Veel en veelzijdig gebruik van groentes. Bediening was geweldig, persoonlijk en geïnteresseerd. Echt een topavond.

Last evening in Amsterdam and wanted to go out on a high. Choux did not disappoint. Wonderful food and staff and couldn’t have asked for more honestly. Had the 5 course menu with wine pairing and it was unbelievable. Venison jus out of this world. It is expensive, but truly worth the money.

I think it is well known that you can eat more than delicious food at Choux, but everything is right there, the atmosphere, the nice informal service! We had such a wonderful evening there again.. Well done team Choux

Is this the best and most fun restaurant in town? In any case in the top 10. Food great, wines surprising. But especially the atmosphere and the service. How chill can you eat fantastically there. In terms of price/value really bizarrely good. The babis 5 courses is still under € 80. That is 3x as good food for 1.5 times the price. Go as soon as possible. Soon they will have a star, the food will remain good, but will the clientele remain so pleasant? Thanks. It was another great evening.

Heerlijk gegeten, het ene gerecht nog lekkerder dan het andere. De gerechten zagen er ook prachtig uit. Vriendelijk en deskundig personeel. Leuk ook het non-alcoholische drankarrangement, bij elk gerecht weer een ander lekker bijpassend drankje.

The cafe is fine for a quick coffee, but not very special. Inside it was a bit dark and noisy.

Ugh.. That I have never left a review after all these years. Of all the times (I think at least 6/7 times) I have never left disappointed. Dishes are always perfect, beautifully balanced and always a real work of art in terms of presentation. Service is fast and on point, nothing is missing. Wine list is of unprecedented level with beautiful natural wines. And all this in a relaxed atmosphere. I would give a thousand points if I could.

What a fantastic restaurant, what a delicious, tasteful food prepared with great care, what a pleasant service. Had a wonderful evening, fully enjoyed 4.5 hours of food with a very surprising variety of natural wines. In short, an experience for all taste buds. 🥳🥳🥳

Heerlijk gegeten en super vriendelijke bediening. Heel fijn dat we ook een aantal van hun alcoholvrije drankjes konden proeven!

Great service, great atmosphere , check your food we found a worm in our dessert, besides that all really good

Beautiful presentations and enormously intense, tasty dishes. Amazing what they can achieve here vegetarian. As a true meat eater, beautifully done!

Ik heb hier vaker gegeten en altijd voortreffelijk. Ik dacht dat het niet beter kon. Nou ik had het mooi mis. Gisteravond, gerecht na gerecht, waren wij verbluft, tot aan het emotionele toe over de bijzondere smaak en textuur combinaties. Het was weer een sublieme ervaring. Ik kijk nu al uit naar het volgende keer.

The food was very tasty and surprising, but the wine arrangement was very disappointing. Tasteless slobber and a self-indulgence. We did get an alternative, but that shouldn't be necessary. The portions are small and after 5 courses we still had an empty feeling in our stomachs. When we said something about it laughingly, the answer was 'you can order extra bread, right?' Well, as if we came for a piece of bread. Too bad

Great food, disappointing service I had high hopes for this restaurant based on the menu and food reviews — and I have to say, the food did not disappoint. Every dish we tried was flavorful, well-executed, and clearly made with care. The ingredients were fresh, and the plating was beautiful. It’s clear the kitchen team knows what they’re doing. Unfortunately, the service really soured the experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff seemed disinterested and inattentive. We waited far too long to be seated, and even longer to get our drinks. At no point did we feel welcomed or looked after. Simple requests were met with eye-rolls or forgotten entirely, and there was a general lack of professionalism and warmth throughout the evening. It’s a real shame — the food deserves better representation on the floor. With improved service, this place could be something special. But for now, I wouldn’t recommend it unless you’re very patient.

We had a great time at Choux! The 5 course meal was very innovative and unlike anything we had experienced before. The highlight, though, was their thoughtful and attentive service. I have slightly complicated dietary restrictions, and they accommodated them with ease and expertise. My partner had the menu as usual and they ensured that I had equally as delicious food that worked for me and my body. Overall, would definitely recommend if you are looking for something on the more expensive side and vegetable forward!

An Unforgettable Culinary Experience. A Must-Do! We had the pleasure of indulging in the four-course vegetarian menu, and it was nothing short of extraordinary. Each dish was a masterpiece, visually stunning and thoughtfully crafted with carefully selected ingredients. The flavors were perfectly balanced, creative, and elevated with a unique, personal touch that made every bite memorable. From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable. The appetizers were exquisite and set the tone for the rest of the meal, while the dessert was a delightful finale, both elegant and satisfying. A special mention goes to our waitress, who truly enhanced the experience. She was not only knowledgeable and informative, but also incredibly patient and genuinely kind. She answered all of our questions with care and enthusiasm, making us feel warmly welcomed and well taken care of. If you’re seeking a refined dining experience that blends artistry, flavor, and flawless hospitality, this is an absolute must.

You don't come here to eat bread... Ordered 5 courses, main course consisted of 1 whole asparagus with some on the side. When we said it wasn't very much and we were actually still hungry, she said: you can order bread with it. Huhhh? I don't come here to eat bread, right? The dishes were tasty, but this was/is a letdown.

Nothing I could Write here comes close to how good choux is. I went on Holiday and was hoping for one Dinner that Hits me by suprise with flavours I dont know. It was that Night. We Love this Place and we hope we can Return. Thank you Team choux! You made is feel Like Home! 🫰🏻🧡

A must stop in AMS. Delicious, innovative plant-forward cuisine, our best meal by far in the city. Eclectic wine pairings, Daniel our server was amazing. Will be back, Highly recommend.

Just had dinner there with friends. Fine dining, the staff was extremely lovely and kind! The food was AMAZING: super fresh ingredients, different consistencies froths, crumbles, stocks, fresh crunchy vegetables, even the bread with butter was super (actually: sourdough bread and cultured whipped butter). Mostly vegetarian with a lot of earthy flavours. There is also a wide selection of drinks made by them and fermented. I was going to forget my dessert: truffle honey, french toast, cream cheese, cheese and another cheese with different ages and consistencies, incredible! (Not really sweet, more soury, different from a dessert we are used to, but amazing). I would recommend this to everyone! For those who are not sure to be "full" after the dinner: don't worry, you will definitely be! We had a 5 course menu+1 additional dish+some drinks, spent around 100€.

In awe of the depth and combinations of flavours, plating, textures. Vegetarian dishes are out of control good.

if you like shitty greens with wasabi its 5/5 for you. otherwise get a bag to throw up. service is actually 5/5 loved the staff.

I visited Choux 1st time 10 years ago when it was just open. It was nice place but now it has been developed to a completely different level. Very creative dishes and combination of the ingredients.

Still stunned by the news from Jonnie that reached us in the afternoon, we headed to Choux. Carpe diem, we told ourselves, and how beautiful it is to start with a tulip as an appetizer! Upon arrival we were asked to take a seat at a table near the entrance. A drafty place and the rest sat on the benches, which would also seem a lot more comfortable to me as a pregnant woman. A not very hospitable start. As a pregnant woman, I was given a sparkling aperitif that had already been opened the day before and from which the bubble had disappeared. At this level I would expect the sommelier/server to first taste whether it still has enough bubbles before serving it to guests. The green starter with ricotta was so lively that there was still an aphid on it. While mentioning this to the waiter, we asked for extra butter for the bread, and she forgot. Too bad, just after such a small incident you can make amends in a simple way, and she failed to do so. The rest of the dishes (scallop, something with a mushroom and a dish of lettuce were very good!). The piece was asparagus with tempeh and a delicious sauce, the asparagus was quite on the raw side. The cheese dish that my husband had, remeker with pain perdu, truffle and porcini mushrooms, was sublime and a real winner! Dessert was nice and fresh with buttermilk and rhubarb. It would be nice to get a menu with the dishes and ingredients listed, instead of having to order them at the table very quickly. NL and ENG are explained. In my opinion, the small chocolate with the coffee/tea could also have been 2 per person. All in all, I enjoyed it, but with a number of flaws that are not desirable at this level and could easily have been avoided.

Impeccable experience from food to service top 3 best restaurant in Amsterdam

We were thinking about why we would not rate this a 10/10.. couldn’t come up with a single reason. Just go, you won’t regret it.

The food is very nice, different tastes than usually, very creative kitchen. The atmosphere is just to loud you need to scream to each other, for that reason only 4 stars

Yesterday we enjoyed the 5 course menu with 2 extra dishes, the langoustines cru and the crème brulee epoisses This was exceptionally tasty and beautifully constructed in terms of taste and craftsmanship. We also drank a lot from the homemade non-alcoholic range, which was extremely complex and challenging! Nicely chosen!. With a glass of natural wine here and there. The extremely friendly and personal service with a lot of attention and flair made the evening complete. Thank you very much to Team Choux

One of the most amazing experiences.

Very hospitable. Informal atmosphere. Very tasty, creative, star-worthy dishes. In addition to the wine arrangement, there is also a juice arrangement that has been carefully prepared.

Exceptional place with all the serious chops of a michelin restaurant but without the snobby stuffiness. A+. Came here for a celebratory date night on a Tuesday evening and were blown away. From beginning to end the service staff treated us with the kind of self-assured-but-not-arrogant yet friendly service that only comes from lots of training and experience. Though we had several servers tend to our table throughout the 2.5 hours we dined, our primary server (wish we could remember her name) was such a pro. One of those experiences where you felt you in were in the most capable hands, where nothing could possibly go wrong. The food was insanely good. Feels weird to call it simply "food" when each course was more an all encompassing revelatory experience than just, like, eating. We literally closed our eyes during bites. We've eaten asparagus a million times in our lives, for example, but our first course of green asparagus with thinly sliced pickles and "the first strawberries of the season" had us thinking we were trying this alien vegetable with an unreal crisp texture for the first time. Hard to put into words how good this dish was. I'm already forgetting to mention the amuse bouche of broccoli florets with some kind of crispy cereal attached to the buds we were encouraged to eat with our hands - an amazing start. The following courses included a mushroom zabaglione, an incredible scallop sashimi dish, a main course of egg yolk in a purse of something I'm forgetting with chanterelles - all wonderful. We are so glad we opted for the extra course which consisted of french toast layered with whipped cheese in a puddle of truffled syrup, brought out to us by one of the dessert chefs - we thought we were tripping it was so good. Wish we had a pic of the dessert course because it was also exceptional, but we gobbled it up too fast. We weren't drinking alcohol at the time but to our surprise they had that covered too - every single course came with its own zero proof pairing made in house. The last one - their approximation of a red wine, with a base of beet juice - had a complex, savory quality that reminded me of kvass and was utterly delicious and I wish they would share the recipe with me? Only slight critique is the decor, which in our opinion doesn't match the creativity and care of everything else. Incredible place, will definitely be back.

This restaurant was such a treat, incredible food and amazing service. Overall a really special experience, I can’t wait to go back

Wow! What a wonderful place. The dishes are all well thought out and very tasty. They are also real works of art. The service is knowledgeable and friendly. The acoustics of the restaurant are also very pleasant, you can hear each other well even when it is completely full. My favorite dishes are the asparagus with strawberries and the slow-cooked scallops.

Amazing food. The concept of making the vegetables the main in dishes is amazing. There is a new depth put into the taste of certain known dishes, that makes this a very nice tasting experience. Additionally the wine cart is also sublime, and definitely worth having a look at.

Delicious food every time, friendly and professional service!

Fantastic food, excellent wines and non-alcoholic drinks. Nice service. Not cheap but well worth the price.

Great food, service and overall vibe. Will be back

Intense tasting dishes mainly vegetables based. We were positive surprised. Also the wine menu is interesting

Restaurant beautiful. Soup was half a cup miso broth. I had squid with XO sauce. Texture could have been rice noodles. When I eat vegetables, I like to recognize or taste what kind of vegetables. A vegetable pancake could also have been just dye. The venison steak 3 very small pieces size of 3 half fingers. Dessert ice cream with minced herbs why? I’m not a big eater, the portions where very small. I was still hungry.

The dishes had an originality due to different and especially unique products. The dishes go particularly well with the (fresh) juices. They enhance the flavors well. We are not fans of natural wines, there are no other wine options.

We had a delicious meal and the service was friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. If you are an avid meat eater you should not go, but for modern people it is highly recommended. To the staff of Choux I say thank you for a nice evening.

Fantastic service. Delicious food. We didn't ask for vegetarian but we did get it, plus two (!) bottles of tap water for € 21.50!!!!! Too expensive for what it is. Not a piece of fish or anything made of meat, only fries, no matter how tasty, I don't come for that.

We really enjoyed our evening at Choux, we weren’t made to feel out of place and the staff were very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful, they really were the main ingredient of the evening. The food was exceptional and the wine was marvellous, we have a restaurant in Edinburgh that is our once every 6 months restaurant, if we lived here Choux would be that very place!

Vinimos a cenar. El personal no podría haber sido más amable o servicial. El restaurante tenía un ambiente encantador y la comida era fantástica. Ajustaron el menú para adaptarse a las intolerancias alimentarias. Todo estaba delicioso. Ojalá hubiéramos podido quedarnos más tiempo pero teníamos un tren que coger.

We had a delicious meal at Choux, the service was fantastic! Definitely recommended to have the scallops with it🙂 The atmosphere was good and we really enjoyed the natural wines.

Good food, far too small portions, wine glasses half the standard size and to be honest left hungry and €130 lighter. Spend your money wisely for a great food experience.

Great night out. Extremely good food and great service. The only downside was that the extensive menu consisted exclusively of natural wines, which our group appreciated slightly less. Friendly and knowledgeable sommelier provided good advice on this. Thanks!

As always, a stay at Choux is a special culinary journey. You can expect beautifully visually appealing dishes that are cleverly crafted and structured in terms of taste and come to their full potential thanks to the equally exciting natural wine pairing. From reception to farewell, you will be accompanied by perfect, natural and unobtrusive service. Gefeliciteerd!

Wonderful experience with special dishes. Perhaps a choice of tea at the end instead of sticking to 1 type of tea and filter coffee.

Heerlijk gegeten met bekwame bediening. Wij hadden een 6 gangen menu wat enorm goed smaakte. Helaas wijnen niet te drinken. Ook filterkoffie toe. Jammer..

One of my favourite restaurants in Amsterdam, up there with the likes of De Kas and Spectrum but a little more easy going like Bak. They also cater for vegans.

Taste disgusting. Just a scam to fool around customers.

Premium place with seriously good food.

We had the vegetarian version of their 5 course tasting menu, and it was fantastic, delicious, amazing! The restaurant is using unusual (for us, at least) ingredients and it led us to some really interesting discoveries. Would recommend, 100%

Wonderfully delicious food with top service. The 5-course menu consisted of all kinds of beautiful and surprising flavor combinations The service was top notch Attentive and sensitively present The only downside is that they only have filter coffee According to our neighbor, this was not drinkable, so we didn't dare try it Pairing wines were also surprising Only they are all natural wines, they have very different taste notes, you have to like that All in all we had a great evening

Esta es una de las mejores experiencias gastronómicas que he tenido en mucho tiempo. El servicio fue fabuloso al igual que el menú establecido. Mi hermana es vegetariana y mencionó que no le gustaban los hongos y el restaurante creó platos especialmente para ella! Realmente fue excepcional

Culinary gem in Amsterdam, offering produce-focused seasonal tasting menus. Food is outstanding, the flavour combinations and presentation are both creative and impeccable, every course was delicious. Staff is very friendly and attentive, adding to the welcoming and cozy atmosphere of the place. Highly recommend!

Indescribable experience, advanced cooking techniques, dishes with levels of taste advanced complexity, bold and unique flavor combinations, pushing the boundaries of ingredients they use in the dishes to the next level!

The Binnenstebuiten program paid attention to Choux. I made a reservation immediately. The ambiance is great, the service very good, the 5-course dinner was, in one word, AMAZING! Fantastic taste sensations, tantalizing. Everything has been thought of, for those who do not drink alcohol there are delicious non-alcoholic drinks. Valentine and Myrtle

In dit restaurant komen wij al jaren regelmatig. Eten: Erg lekker. Verrassende smaken. Prachtige combinaties. Heerlijk. Bediening: Professioneel, gastvrij en vriendelijk. Wijnen: Dit zijn volgens ons natuurwijnen. Meedere keren geprobeerd maar helaas niet ons ding. Wijnen (zowel rood als wit) zijn over het algemeen troebel en tamelijk wrang. Wel jammer, want een glas wijn meer naar onze smaak bij dit eten zou fijn zijn. Desalniettemin blijven wij hier terugkomen. Dit restaurant verdient een ster, maar hopelijk gebeurt dit niet. Het zou ten koste gaan van de ongedwongen sfeer en teveel snobs aantrekken.

Excellently worked tasting menu, with great service and good atmosphere (slightly cold inside though, but it was December!). We had the five-course tasting menu which was delicious and well-presented - all food is seasonal and has excellent flavours. There are options for meat or vegetarian tasting menus. Food well explained by attentive and welcoming staff. Nice vibe inside, exposed style and open-plan.

One of the best restaurants in Amsterdam. Beautiful subtle and original flavours, very welcoming and comfortable seating. Once you've been, you'll want to make another reservation immediately.

Food and drinks are lovely, the service could be improved

A standout spot for innovative, vegetable-focused cuisine featuring vegetarian and vegan tasting menus. The trendy, minimalist décor in a converted warehouse adds to the charm, while the seasonal, produce-driven dishes showcase creativity and flavor. The staff is kind, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful. Hands down, the best meal I had during my Amsterdam trip—an unforgettable experience!

Choux is absoluut een van de beste restaurants van de stad. Wij komen hier nu al meer dan 10 jaar, de kwaliteit is constant, het is altijd vol, het wachten is op een Michelin ster. Bediening is uitstekend: vriendelijk, attent en goed gevoel voor timing. De plek is mooi, en je kunt elkaar gewoon verstaan. Publiek is jong, meer vrouwen dan mannen toen wij er gister waren. Het eten is geweldig! Amuse van oesterschuim, zeeduivel, paddestoelen gerecht met beurre blanc, schelvis, crème brulde van reblochon en appel dessert toe. We hadden echt een fantastische avond. Zoals altijd.

Amazing to find a restaurant that easily accommodated our eating and drinking preferences yet still made everything special. Not a bad dish served.

We are vegetarians, and we do not drink alcohol. Choux had us covered though! We had the 3 course dinner, and they brought housemade juices and kombuchas, thoughtfully paired with each course. Very friendly staff. Affordable for upscale dining. Highly recommend!

Gelokt door een artikel in 'Het Parool', waarin de journalist zijn verbazing uitsprak over het feit dat Choux weer geen Michelinster werd toegekend (ook de chef weet niet meer wat hij moet doen om een ster te verdienen), mijn broer vanwege zijn verjaardag getrakteerd op een etentje daar. Een tegenvaller. Choux is een matig restaurant, zeker geen Michelin ster waard. De start was al verkeerd. Om 18.00 uur afgesproken, maar was er iets over half zes. Werd mij de deur gewezen. "Ga maar een biertje drinken bij het cafe op de hoek, en kom over een half uurtje terug". Ze waren nog niet open, nog even bezig met werkoverleg. So much for hospitality. Het cafe bleek dicht.... Op straat mijn broer tegengekomen, en rond 18.00 uur de gang naar Choux ingezet. Bleken er meerdere gasten voor de deur op de stoep te wachten totdat de deur open ging. Al eerder opgemerkt, maar toch... beetje onwaardig allemaal. Alsof het restaurant belangrijker is dan de gasten. Bediening was vriendelijk, de amuse was prima en beloofde veel. Maar daarna viel het eten tegen, zeker als je vaker hebt gegeten in restaurants die wel een Michelin-ster (of meerdere) is (zijn) toegekend. Op zich best goed en lekker, maar geen verfijning, zowel in opmaak als in smaak. Te grof, en soms zeer uitgesproken zodat het scherp wordt. Heb een gang gehad die een soort peulvruchten of noten als ondergrond had. Dus niet als accent, maar als daadwerkelijk groot onderdeel van de gang. Te veel van het goede. Gebakken baars, weliswaar netjes gebakken, maar niets meer dan gebakken baars. En een gang met een wat uitgesproken dunne jus, die redelijk scherp van smaak was. Als toetje een flensje met gesmolten kaas.... En dat was het ook, een opgevouwen flensje met gesmolten kaas. Als het ontvangen van een Michelin ster zijn ambitie is, lijkt het me handig als de chef een keer bij een restaurant gaat eten die die dat genoegen al een keer heeft mogen smaken. Dan begrijpt hij wat ik bedoel, en ook in welke richting hij zich moet ontwikkelen. Zoals het nu is, is Choux voor mij een eenmalige ervanring.

One of the best meals I have ever had. I'm counting the days until we're back in Amsterdam. This will be our destination on the very first night.

Tasty plates and really nice kombuchas, the waiter made our experience 5 stars.

Everything is perfect in this place! The best natural wine list in Amsterdam!

Both Grimm and Broekaert were surprised that Choux had not received a star, which is why they decided to travel again. And then a somewhat complex story follows, with two warnings and a point of principle. Mara Grimm reports in her article that at star tents it is no longer the case that you have to go to the chip shop on the corner after dinner. Well, it probably didn't help that we had a theater menu (3 courses), but I was so hungry afterwards. And how could it be otherwise after a piece of beetroot, a piece of fish and a panna cotta. All very responsible and certainly at star level, but afterwards it really took 2 bapaos to stay on their feet. And then the wines. These are almost all natural wines (and that's not my thing again) and they are expensive. The sommelier was kind enough to let us taste it and thank goodness. It turned out fine, but the wines start at 50 euros and I think that is (too) expensive. Finally, pay for water. Immediately upon arrival, a friendly lady stood at our table asking "flat or sparkling?" So not, "Do you want water?" My point is that you have to pay for water here (point of principle), not to mention the fact that I don't drink water. Then, as far as I'm concerned, such an innocent question will be seen in a different light. My dining companion said "flat", I said "I don't drink water". The bill stated 2 x water (was corrected). Long story short: tap water should be served for free.

Choux is and remains fantastic. Exciting, tasty dishes, very attentive service and a nice atmosphere. I keep coming back.

We had an amazing experience with Choux. Not only was the food amazing and an incredible experience but my girlfriend was feeling unwell and the staff were so generous and helpful. They allowed us to rebook for the following day even though we had already had one of the courses. It was the most kind and thoughtful customer service I have experienced and the food itself was mind blowing. Special mention for the plum based dessert although all courses were great.

One of the best meals we've ever had. We added an optional course which was incredible, and did NA pairings which we loved. Fantastic service, not too fancy, just a really lovely and delicious experience.

The dishes are very tasty and beautifully prepared! But 5 small dishes is a bit too little. They also forgot the sandwich at first. So we did need that 😕 The service is attentive, friendly and involved. The wine, on the other hand, is really undrinkable! Sour natural wine, which really weakens the whole experience. All in all, not recommended.

If I could give the food 6 stars, I would. We celebrated our wedding anniversary at Choux, with the five-course tasting menu, opting for everything vegetarian. Everything was fantastic and flawless, as vegetarians it can be difficult to find a fine dining experience that honours vegetables but the Choux team delivered. We also enjoyed the botanical juices and infusion pairings, a welcome alternative to win pairings and a unique experience for us. I would highly recommend Choux to anyone looking for a vegetable-centric fine dining experience!

Really delicious food. Super friendly service, cozy atmosphere, beautiful dishes and what flavors!

Le premier et meilleur dîner de tout notre séjour. Restaurant charmant un peu à l’écart de la folie de l’hyper centre. Jolie déco avec un corner caviste. Avons choisi la formule 4 plats ( pré entré et mignardise en plus) . Très bon choix de vins au verre. Les plats étaient tous délicieux, excellente maîtrise de l’acidité, de nouvelles saveurs aussi… restaurant à tester absolument. Un grand merci à toute l’équipe pour ce merveilleux moment.

I thoroughly enjoyed my experience dining solo at Choux. Each course presented an unexpected combination of flavors – some familiar, some I couldn't place even after the server had just explained to me everything that was in the dish. Immediately forgetting much of what I was eating may have worked in my favor, as I was able to detach from my expectations and just enjoy a completely invigorating sensory experience. Each course presented something as appealing to my eye as to my tongue, an exciting adventure all around. There was plenty of time between each course, probably more than I would've liked. Altogether, my 5 course dinner took around 2 and a half hours. I only wish I'd brought a book to read between courses and people-watching. The atmosphere was distinct. The design of the restaurant was industrial yet laid back. Rustic wood decorated the walls amidst tiles and concrete. A beautiful bright red ceiling balanced the slate gray of the floors. As a solo diner, I enjoyed taking it all in, watching the staff's impressive coordination and attentiveness as they moved through the dining area. My only qualm with the space itself was the bathrooms – clean enough, but between the small space and its position next to the coat rack, it felt a bit closet-like. At 70 euros (not including wine pairings or other extras), the 5-course [vegetarian] menu was a more than worthwhile experience. Those dishes will stick with me, and they left me feeling inspired to seek out more adventures for my palate. Highly recommend.

Outstanding meal and every course was fantastic. The sauces and the tastes were delicate as were the presentation. We loved the laid back feel but service was excellent and very friendly. We will be back again. Thank you!
