Dante Kitchen & Bar in Burgwallen-Nieuwe Zijde

The experience was disappointing. The coke had no sting. The pizzas were tasteless and way too greasy. The atmosphere was okay, but nothing special. All in all, it didn't convince me, and I wouldn't eat here again.

Service was prima, eten kwam vlot door. Eten smaakte ook goed, niet heel bijzonder maar volgens verwachting. Prima tentje voor even een hapje tijdens een bezoek aan de stad, niet om uitgebreid te dineren.

Posto ristrutturato, moderno veramente carino. Il personale è gentile e parla italiano Il cibo è buono, noi abbiamo mangiato pesce ed era di qualità. Consiglio

Hicimos reservas - con una tarifa no reembolsable - para lo que esperábamos que fuera una agradable cena de Año Nuevo. Cuando llegamos nuestro servidor no podía haber estado menos comprometido / interesado. Nos informaron bruscamente que nuestra única opción era un menú fijo, sin más agua o bebidas que la mitad - vaso de Prosecco plano. Tuvimos que ir al bar y pedir otras bebidas. La comida consistía en tres platos de alimentos mal preparados que sabían como si hubieran sido preparados un día antes y dejados bajo una lámpara de calor durante 24 horas, o congelados cuando se servían. Hacia la mitad de la comida vimos a otros comensales comiendo pizza. Cuando preguntamos, nos dijeron que la pizza estaba de hecho disponible. Terminamos pidiendo y pagando por una pizza para llevar - además de pagar por tres comidas no comestibles. Si te emocionas con un menú en línea bien presentado, te decepcionará la ejecución.

I definitely, definitely do not recommend it. I have never seen waiters giving such poor service in my life. I didn't need to ask what his name was, especially the fat and bald one. You are a waiter and you get paid to serve. Do your job properly, learn to be polite to customers, and if you don't, go do another job. We ordered and they didn't even send a napkin (by the way, I can't finish telling you the trouble we went through while ordering)

Ivan gave us an amazing experience, he was always making sure we were okay, I would 100% go back just for him, thank you Dante restaurant for this amazing experience

Definitely not recommended! Risotto without cheese, ice-cold steak, gnocchi with frozen mushrooms and cold lasagna. And if you talk to the waiter about it, he says he wants to put the steak back in the oven. 🙄 When paying the high bill, I mentioned the poor quality again, but they don't care.

Food was substandard. Too expensive for the poor quality you get on the plate. We ordered with 4. Everyone's food was cold to lukewarm. I myself had the lasagna. Normally served steaming hot. Here's a dollop of lasagna dropped on a plate and covered with parmesan and lukewarm. The daughter had gnocci with mushrooms and truffle. The truffle was nowhere to be seen/tasted. The mushrooms were reheated frozen mushrooms. Tasteless. The gnocci stuck together and could be counted on one hand. For the price of €25 you can expect something better. My husband had risotto. Cooked way too flat (but that still happens). Cheese flavor not present. But especially served cold. Whenever a comment is made about it, they come away with a jar of parmesan 🙄. The son had steak. It tasted good but was also cold. When something is said about this, the solution offered is to put the steak in the oven to warm up. (The medium rare would become a cobbler…). In short: not recommended!

Iván was our waiter tonight, he knows English and Spanish also very good service and very good food too! We had a couple of cocktails and I highly recommend this place

Had a wonderful experience at Dante, Ivan gave us a 5 start experience being kind, talkative. Besides that had a great margarita. Thank you Dante and Ivan! Definitely recommend🤩

The food here is extremely delicious. The only problem here is the service and atmosphere. There were white wine glasses with our red wine that were also completely dirty; clean glasses were only available after we asked. The store was also very crowded and loud, which unfortunately totally killed the atmosphere.

Delicious food and a very friendly welcome. We ended up there for a cup of coffee in the afternoon. We liked it so much that we went back there for a hot meal on the way back! We were warmly welcomed and greeted, are you back again?! Despite the crowds, they have an eye for the guests! Recommended!

Everything there is delicious, the pizzas are prepared with a lot of care, even when the restaurant is full the waiting times are pleasant, the service is incredible as they are committed to ensuring that your visit is pleasant and satisfying for you, they immediately offered me a chair so my son could eat comfortably. They even offered to put the cart away so it wouldn't take up our space at the table. We are regular customers so will clearly return to continue enjoying this wonderful restaurant. Once again thank you

Disappointing experience at this restaurant. It seems different on the internet than in reality. I order Dante's club sandwich and get 6 white sandwiches with white chicken fillet and lettuce strung on a thick satay stick with 2 handfuls of chips (!) spread on the plate as a garnish for €16.50. I indicated in advance that I am allergic to tomatoes. I take one bite and to my horror I see tomatoes on my bread. The waiter takes it back to the kitchen and after almost 15 minutes of waiting, he arrives, but now I'm done with it and order pizza instead. The chef was very nice, personally delivered the pizza, apologized and I also got a coke from the company. The pizza was very sparsely topped. Nevertheless, we tipped the staff for their efforts. We were still hungry so we went to a better restaurant for dinner.

I sat down with a friend for a glass of wine. Suddenly, the woman at the table next to us starts vomiting profusely. When the weight staff tried to clean up the vomit, they started throwing buckets of water at it. The buckets of water started spraying all over the customers without warning and sending the vomit at everyone’s feet. Then My friend went upstairs to the bathroom and in the public area by the sink she saw a woman with her pants down, cleaning herself naked, she felt uncomfortable and could not use the restroom. we tried-to ask the manager for a discount because we got sprayed with vomit water and had an uncomfortable experience in the restroom, she told us rudely that it was out of her control. She was not at all sympathetic for the experience, and was rude. We left without finishing our wine or the bottle of water we paid for because of the bad situation.

Unfortunately I can't give a good rating, service was completely overwhelmed, we just wanted to drink a beer, despite asking several times, since all the other guests around us were being served, we didn't get our beer. After more than 30 minutes we left. There are plenty of alternatives, you can really save yourself the Dante.

Very good! I ate excellent quality burgers and fries. The waiter was nice and even knew Italian. I would definitely go back ⭐️

Had a very nice Sunday Brunch at Dante's! Good atmosphere, beautiful location, many different dishes and unlimited bubbles. I will definitely come again next time :)

The ambience always enchants me, the staff is really friendly and accommodating. Always worth a visit!

Very expensive dishes for what they are, given that they are frozen. Small quantity and dish that arrives lukewarm. The quality of the products was not good, even the Picard lasagna is better. A bottle of water for €7.25. Let's not talk about the extremely tasteless decor and the plastic sheets in the middle of the table. Don't go there at all

We had a great company party by them! 💗

Big "Pub" is clearly not preferred by the locals. Mostly Italian cuisine!

Wouldn’t recommend at all. Avoid

A big congratulations 👍 to the very smiling and caring waitress 😉

The food in this restaurant was really excellent - fresh, tasty and served very quickly. I was impressed by the quality and efficiency of the kitchen. Unfortunately the service couldn't keep up. The service seemed stressed and was rather unfriendly, which spoiled the atmosphere a bit. Another negative point was the wrong glass for my wheat beer. This may sound like a small thing, but at a price of 9 euros, I expect details like this to be accurate - especially since I've seen other guests receive the correct glass. All in all, the restaurant is recommended because of the good food, but the service still needs improvement. With a little more attention and friendliness the experience would have been perfect.

After strolling around, we were hungry and decided to try this restaurant. Even though it was busy, we managed to get a table for four. The table setting gave off a fine dining vibe. We ordered the roasted chicken and lasagna. My roasted chicken was a bit dry but still flavorful—I do wish it came with some gravy on the side. The lasagna looked different from what we expected, as it didn’t have the usual tomato-based sauce, but my friend said it was delicious. The service was superb, with the waitress checking on us regularly. Definitely worth trying for dinner if you’re in the area!

Very pleasant bar/restaurant were here to have a drink, so I can't say anything about the food. However, the ones that came by looked very good. Very suitable and cozy for relaxing after a walk!

My friends and I were on our way to a delicious Indian restaurant further down the Spuistraat. We didn't make a reservation so we were out of luck. We walked on and came across this restaurant, it looked cozy and good. The starter was great, a nice beer and a glass of wine, nothing to complain about. Then, after quite a long time we got our main course. I ordered the risotto and received a plate with tomato puree and hard rice, the shrimp still tasted like the sea. I took a few bites and then pushed my plate back. My friends had pasta and pizza, both were disappointing. The pasta was half a portion, and the pizza was only sparsely topped. A tent to skip. A little something + drink probably won't disappoint. But you better not come here for your dinner.

We went with a large group (40 people) the day before the Amsterdam Marathon. The food was pre-ordered so the restaurant knew exactly how much to prepare. The picture is my plate before I even touched it (I have just gathered the pasta in the center). Ridiculously small! I had to go to another restaurant afterwards to eat properly. Shame because the food was good.

Very friendly atmosphere, very helpful staff, very good time, very good meal

Bien posicionado y no demasiado caro, el servicio era bueno y amable, pero la comida era mediocre, a pesar del tiempo de espera de 20-30 minutos. Nachos a la Dante es solo un bocadillo desempaquetado (con un montón de adiciones laterales que bien pueden adaptarse a la noche de cerveza - solo para ser honesto) Cotoletta di Vitello es un schnitzel de Wiener hecho de vaca bien envejecida. Es casi imposible cortar con cuchillo servido, así que solicitamos el mejor cuchillo y finalmente ganamos la batalla. El sabor estaba bien, al máximo. Lasaña alla boloñesa era un plato sabroso, pero con un toque. Había algo dentro que no se estaba rindiendo al cuchillo servido también. Pero como ya teníamos el cuchillo especial, después de algún esfuerzo logramos cortar el problema : ) Creo que en el momento menos ocupado puede tener mejor suerte.

We were sitting inside , and the doors were open all the time. It was very, very cold. When we asked for closure. The lady said that the owner did not agree. I ordered the midium steak. I got hard papatas and a dry steak. My friends received dry chicken and obviously old fries. After seeing the ad, I expected more. and it was worse than average. I don't recommend it. If you have the option to go somewhere else, go.

Bien situado pero muy lento servicio, el camarero olvidó nuestro pedido al menos 2 veces 🤤 Probablemente nos saltemos este en el próximo viaje a Amsterdam

Pitiful service!!! Cocktails, aperitifs served at the same time as the dishes! Removing the plates while we are still eating. Italian??? The signature pizza was not cooked!! We do not recommend at all!!!!

Cute restaurant and not too packed when we visited! I ordered the chicken which was super tasty and juicy 🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼 I will be back for sure

The flag tells you everything you need to know.

Very tasty food. Service was good very attentive

I wouldn't come here again in a hurry. Pizza was fine. But I thought the prices were on the high side. You really pay for the location. Next time we will go to our old trusted Italian, not at an A location. Service 5 stars. Very friendly.

One of the best restaurants in Amsterdam, we were served exceptionally well and the food was delicious. I recommend stopping by pir Dante Kitchen & Bar. 🙌🏽

Been here twice. One came from early dinner and had pizza and carpaccio eith my husband. Today we had earm meal. 3 persons ordered the half chicken and the truffled beef. Both were very good although didn’t feel the truffle taste at all. Ambiance is beautiful and cozy. Service is not great, we felt the waiter was annoyed when we took a bit longer to decide what to order.

We ordered following foods and drinks: - Hot chocolate - Ice Tea - Loaded Nachos - Brownie Drinks and Food was very good. Only the homemade brownie was a bit dry and not as expected with am melted core. All in all a good place for a little snack in Amsterdam.

Very bad. We were bullied out. Me, my family and friends sat for a long time but were not helped. When we finally walked out the bar guys smiled at us. I didn't understand what was going on until we saw the large Ukraine flag outside. Apparently my friends were speaking Russian to each other and they had heard it. This way you clearly show who you are. We just spent our money on leather. Ordinary people have nothing to do with war. I'm not even Russian.

We recently visited this cafe. It was a big disappointment because we weren't served for long time, despite the fact that place was almost empty. Then we understood why - the food was disaster. Very dry sandwich, pasta overcooked and bolognese tasted like from cheap supermarkt. No attention at all during the whole evening. Table was dirty and never cleaned. Also, there hang a strange smell of old and burned food. Shortly - never again.

We attended this restaurant for a really special occasion and were met with horrendous customer service and tasteless food. Our food arrived at different times, one main meal arrived 40 MINUTES before the rest, to which we received the response “but you ate it right?” from the manager. The staff here are totally uninterested in providing any level of customer service. The lasagna couldn’t have been more bland if they tried. It’s shameful for them to advertise this restaurant as Italian. We had to ask to speak to the manager 3 times before he actually appeared and then proceeded to offer no realistic solutions to the problem. I wouldn’t waste your money here, it’s a total mood killer.

The pulled is wonderfully delicious 🍔

Food is soooo delicious! The service was so kind! We’ll be back 🙏🏼

The food is unbeatable… dry, cold, not fresh, I am not recommending this place at all

Fantastic salad, a combination of flavors that make the olfactory buds enjoy. Our waiter Gabriele was very courteous and knowledgeable, the chat we had with Lorenzo was wonderful

The Worst Service We’ve Ever Encountered – Absolutely Appalling! We came in simply looking to enjoy some drinks and desserts before heading to a movie. That’s it. But what we got was an experience we won’t forget – for all the wrong reasons. As we sat down, the waiter – a large, intimidating guy with a bold demeanor – approached us. Without a smile, without warmth, he abruptly asked if we were ready to order food. When we politely explained that we were only having desserts and drinks, his reaction was beyond unprofessional. He immediately snatched up the cutlery and menus from the table in the most aggressive and rude manner possible, leaving us speechless. His face made it abundantly clear he was furious we weren’t ordering a full meal. We completely understand that running a business is tough, but if this place wants to survive, they need to start with basic decency and service training. This was not just a lack of service—it was downright disrespectful. Businesses can only thrive if they build a loyal customer base, and that starts with treating people like human beings. The team needs training on how to offer a positive experience. Just a horrible experience all around.

Absolutely TERRIBLE. My partner and I sat on an empty table outside and the waiter, without apologising or giving us any form of politeness, told us to leave because he was gonna prepare that table for other clients that arrived at the same time as us. I told the waiter that before sitting we asked the other clients if they were going to sit there, and when they replied “no, please go ahead”, we sat. And guess what was the waiter’s reply? “NOT ON MY WATCH”. I never experienced so much rudeness, even the couple on the table next us saw everything and were shocked. I am glad we left for good and found a way better place to have drinks and food. I highly recommend you any other places rather than this one. Gastrovino, for example, is nearby and it is way more authentic Italian than this one.

Nice local, waiters friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed the food. Very stylish in the interior. Outside area you can sit on two sides (canal side and alley side, both nice). Food arrived after 20 minutes. Price/performance fits.

Delicious cafe on a Main Street where we had the white truffle pizza, parmesan truffle fries, and a large beautiful Affligem draft. Great food and very pleasant service.

Acceptable Italian food, but the waiter's attention left a lot to be desired, so we do not recommend it.

Friends decided to go have dinner here and I did not enjoy it. I got the half chicken with “salad”. I have no idea what they seasoned the chicken with but it was not pleasant. The “salad” was just spring mix with no dressing or anything, straight dry greens. Server was nice and fast, but will not be coming here again.

Everything was delicious and great service!!!

Catering for tourists, not of high quality.

It was really great! Nice waiter, great atmosphere 👍 The fries with parmesan and truffles were absolutely amazing. The bruschetta was also great.

The best parmesan truffle fries

Burger Dante is their signature and you must try it if you visit the place case its the best meal.

Very good food and the staff is top notch service minded.

Delicious pizza! Impeccable service!

Ate here during gay pride Pizza looked good and was tasty The lasagna was served cold and then sent back and given a new one, it was bland and dry, which we thought was quite a shame Greetings

Terrible service. When I ordered the dessert menu they brought me the bill!! When I notice that I have ordered dessert, they tell me that the kitchen is closed and that they could not serve me a tiramisu, however I witnessed how they had allowed 20 people of Asian origin to enter the restaurant 5 minutes before.....and of course They let other people before and after this group sit down to dinner. If it is closed it should be closed for everyone. It is the typical restaurant that gets you out of a bind but from which you can't expect much, fast food that's over the top.

Super nice and cozy restaurant, reservations are recommended, the food was great and drinks are made with a nice show at the bar

Pleasant atmosphere, friendly service and delicious food.

Excellent spot! Convenient with excellent service and a solid menu. Friendly and responsive staff!

Very tasty food, And a very good waiter ❤️👍

We spend the hole day there. And a lot!! But and of the day they look you away/ the Food was oké!! But not spectaculair for the price you pay!! 1 time never More

Very beautiful place, there's even a covered area outside and the food is very good and the service is good too, I highly recommend it

Nice pizza and good drinks with effective heaters keeping out the weather. Pizza @21.50 Euro acompanied with Beer and wine. It was a pleasant evening

I used to be a regular at this establishment. However, the level of service and food quality has become unacceptable. The restaurant needs more staff.

The food was very good but the service is just absent. The waitress is alone for 20 tables- it’s obviously not enough. Tables are dirty with the dishes from previous visitors, nobody cleaning them. orders aren’t coming soon enough, everything is mixed up. Administration, hire more stuff, don’t be so greedy

We only went here for drinks, which were very good but very expensive. But was worth it for the beautiful spot by the canal!

The service was a little sketchy, sometimes we felt invisible, but the food made up for it. Great location to people watch and the spicy hot pizza was hot, but tasty.

The lasagna was especially delicious 😋

Good service and friendly staff. Bu5 food was expensive and bot very delicious. Its an edible meal for a big price.

Delicious food and excellent service, happy to recommend

Ate here today, despite the crowds, great help from Sjania... they recommend the pizza! Truly the best pizza in Amsterdam!

very good service from Shania, food was delicious!!

Fair lunch had here. We had the simple Soup and Bread, which also came with great Beef Croquette. My Fried Chicken sandwich was very satisfying, however it does not come with fries (separate side). The Brand Hefe is good, but my American IPA was likely the smallest Pint i've ever received. Looks like this building might turn into some kind of small club at night.

Last weekend I had dinner at Dante's with 2 friends! We were very cozy upstairs in a nice corner! Shania helped us very well! The pizza diavola & the steak are highly recommended! The cocktails are also wowie! 🥰

We had a great meal and the waitress Shania helped us a lot, the food came quickly and we were allowed to choose where we wanted to sit. Plus delicious cocktails!!

Absolutely wonderful, I also had a chat with Shania, a very nice lady, she is sincere! Atmosphere was great and delicious cocktails. Definitely going to come there more often

A really top restaurant, DELICIOUS food, nice atmosphere and very good service, especially Shania, she really helped us very well, we will definitely eat here again

Delicious food! The pizzas were especially tasty and the tiramisu!! And the service from the girl with blonde hair and glasses

Best food ever!! Everyone was very hospitable and it was so much fun. Best experience ever!! Shania

Very tasty food, beautiful restaurant and very good customer service, and Shania can serve very well

The salmon was delicious, especially with the strawberry sauce underneath! In combination with the be my lover cocktail it was great! All recommended by shania the best service 🫶🏻

Heineken is really delicious in a great atmosphere. On the other hand, the food was really below expectations. I don't want to think that eating like this is indicative of the level of Dutch people, so I'll just assume that this restaurant is that good. The atmosphere is really nice and it's a great place to have a drink or coffee, so I recommend ordering wine and cocktails instead of food and enjoying the atmosphere.

I haven't had such good real Italian pizza in a long time. The lasagna was also super good! Very tasty meal.

Nice fully stocked bar. Pizza is as good as it gets! Trendy buzzing area.

Excellent Food and Service!! This was our second visit!

I had seen some of their advertising reels on IG and felt like see it for myself. Unfortunately I wasn’t too impressed. The staff felt very stiff and unwelcoming, however some of them did light up and cracked jokes further into the evening. The food was mediocre. I had the cacio e Pepe, and it was not good. The cheese didn’t do it and the peper was just spread on top. The espresso martini was a bit too watery for my taste.

First of all, we were kindly helped by a woman. We were allowed to choose a table ourselves and we had a very nice seat. It looked very chic. Then we were served by a man and I thought he seemed a bit less pleasant. I didn't think the cocktails were great, but that of course depends on your personal preference. I was very curious about the food. Unfortunately this was disappointing. The pasta with truffle was a small portion and there were pieces of sugar underneath (?), this was not described in the menu. The pizza was well topped, but the arugula was not fresh. I also didn't like the toilets very much. When paying with the same man, it seemed as if you were obliged to tip, which put us in an uncomfortable situation because we actually did not experience it very well. We did get a piece of candy, sorry to say this, but this was about the tastiest of the evening. For the price of 73 euros, we didn't think it was worth it. We expected more from TikTok, Instagram and the reviews online. The price-quality ratio was not right for us.

An Italian restaurant near the city center. Attached, you can see the full menu. We ordered half chicken, Cotoletta di Vitello, and Filetto Mignon al Tartufo. The steak was not bad but could have been better. However, the rest of the meal was good. We also ordered cannoli for dessert, which was delicious. The staff were friendly and polite, and the atmosphere was pleasant. We enjoyed our meal there.

The Dante burger I had was the best burger I've ever eaten (I've eaten some of the best in the world), and the waitress was kind. Plenty of Italians who can explain all the food and drinks for you. The bar workers are well experienced and make drinks that are DELICIOUS, and on a day that isn't busy, it's perfect. Great date night 10/10 would recommend. It's definitely pricy, so I wouldn't bring family unless you are willing to pay extra 😊

We had a great time at Dante Kitchen & Bar! The food was fantastic, the atmosphere was great, and the staff was attentive and pleasant. We had chicken wings, carpaccio, and octopus bruschetta; it was delicious. Gabriel (our server) was extremely friendly and took his time to go over the menu. He also gave us many recommendations on what to do and see in Amsterdam; he even gave us a map and marked the best places to go. We recommend!

Terrible food. Terrible service. Stay away.

Very welcoming and friendly waitresses. Good service!!!

We just had drinks & before paying the waiter pushed the 20% tip button himself and accused us of ‘doing this ourselves’ and that we chose to tip him ourselves… such a scam.
