Janana Burger in Geuzenbuurt

Incredibly disappointing. Maybe it’s better if you eat in, but don’t get this delivered. Soaking wet bun, chewy over cooked meat, completely under seasoned. €50 for two for an inedible dinner.

Must try the bacon jam with your burger!

I can highly recommend this place, the burger is fantastic (recommend the bacon jam), the fries with sauce are great and owner is amazingly kind - I went back after ordering to try swap my order of normal fries for sweet potato fries just a little too late and he ended up giving it to me anyway as an extra on the side 🥹 I was really touched and it made the experience feel very special, it’s so rare to receive this kind of service nowadays so I really want to praise them and hope you will choose to support them too! You won’t be disappointed! Also the choice of unique drinks was great, had a really good cucumber soda! Will 100% be back!

Phenomenal smash burgers that don’t feel fatty! Absolutely stellar sweet potato fries too.

Amazing burgers & friendly guys

Been coming here a while, hands down the best burger in Amsterdam (after having tried many). The pickle jam & chilly are exceptional, the buns are super soft and fresh. Hits every time! And to top it off, service is excellent and super friendly, staff knows our order off by heart down to the sauces and that's truly great service.

Great smash burger, simple menu and very friendly staff. We'll definitely come back soon!

Let’s start first by saying that the owner was really nice, he was very welcoming and explained everything very clear. The vibe was nice, and the place looked good. I liked the smashburger, the bun was soft and still had a good bite. I liked the meat and the cheese and normally I Don’t like lettuce but here it’s fine. My only problem that made the burger less nice was the amount of sauce, (mayonaise) which was way too much for me. I would definitely eat another burger if they would take at least half of the mayonaise off, which would make it a better burger. They use this kind of creamy Zaanse Mayo that could be changed to something else… The fries were good so overall a nice place that I recommend visiting.

Lovely friendly staff, nice interior. Was let down by the burger. I had the double cheeseburger, and it was just not great. It had loads and loads of mayo which was not nice and gave it a sloppy texture with the cheese. Would be much improved with another flavour there and non mayo based sauce to balance it out like a ketchup, mustard or relish. The meat was nice, thin and crispy at the edges but further into the burger it was really thick with no crisp - just an uneven smash I think. Fries were absolutely perfect and a very generous portion.

The best burger in Amsterdam by far.

11/10 burgers, service is great, good vibes. If you love burgers, i’m telling you….. this is the best spot

The burgers are alright but I had to wait 50 mins for my order while they said it would take 10 min. Edit - I placed the order via Uber and the restaurant works with Uber so I think that Janana is making their life a bit easy saying: "well that is all Uber." Also on the phone Janana confirmed that they made the order only 30 mins after I placed it.

Will definitely be reordering! The burger with the bacon jam is A MUST!!!! Very generous portions both burger and fries. Bring your appetite!

Absolutely great burger! Super flavourful, juicy and a great crust on the burger as well. Crazy that we got fries for take out and even after an 30min and the fries cooling down they were still crispy!! My new go to for burgers

It is for sure one of the top 3 burgers i have ever eaten in Amsterdam and I have tried many places. The burger is really big and tasty. All the ingredients are fresh and high quality. The service is very good and kind too! I totally recommend it.

wish they had a vegan bun so i could bring more of my friends here. great vegetarian smash burger with a nice bun!

Great guy and delicious burger! My order was delayed due to thuisbezorgd and he remade my order on his own costs! People like these are rare to find these days…

The smash burger was good and the guy who served us was super nice. Fair price!!

Very nice people, great burger! Not much space to seat, clean and tidy though,

The place is quite small but well-organized, inside very cozy and clean. The owner is very nice, a person smiles immediately. Burgers with onions are fantastic, quite greasy but that's the type of food (maybe some fresh cucumber or tomato would be a nice option as an addition to choose to break the taste). The fries are also delicious. This is our first and certainly not the last time!

Almost walked past it due to some construction outside. So glad I didn't! One of the best burgers I've had in a very long time! Great fries too. Friendly fun service from the staff. Place looked extremely clean. I will very likely be back for more.

For the price is a really good portion and good quality. The staff is also friendly.

I absolutely enjoyed the burger and the great service from the owner (not certainly sure but I believe he is the owner who is always welcoming us and give good vibes anytime we visit) The burger is big, juicy and fulfilling, my most favourite burger in Amsterdam! The bacon jam is also really good, one day my husband wanted to try but I was not fully sure and he suggested us to put it aside so we both can try, we appreciated the offer :) was very good indeed! We once did the take away, since the burger is big, on that day i was not super hungry I didn’t want to eat a whole burger so we decided to order 1 burger and flies and we share together. He cut the burger for us and it was well wrapped. He mentioned it might drip but it didn’t. He really delivers his care and his kindness during the service and that also a beautiful thing about this place. Oh the cucumber cider is also well matched with burger! Must a try

Simple straight and delicious can’t recommend it enough, need more love.

Very good burger, friendly staff!

It was something incredible, the best burger in my life🤤🤤🤤🤤

Best! And I mean it, BEST! Burger I had in Amsterdam. Lovely and friendly people. I Always have a good time in janana.

Best burgers fries and beer in town !! Lovely owners ! Definitely recommend!

Best smash burger I have ever had. The quality and portions were perfect. If you like spicy sauce, you have to try their spicy sauce. The owners were helpful with it being our first time. Felt very welcomed. If you are in town , you have to stop by and try it for yourself. 10/10 stars!

Top tier smash burger spot and a delightful owner

Spectacular! Very very delicious food and very good vibes!

The burger was not bad, without any additional toppings somehow like 6 out of 10, but with bacon jam it's much better, I'd give it 7 out of 10. Coleslaw is fine but nothing interesting. The service is nice and friendly. I can recommend visiting this place if you pass nearby.

Way too expensive! €4.50 for a topping on your burger, making you pay a total of €20. What you then need to look for is the sauce. And this one doesn't even cover the entire bun!!!! And then there are delivery costs! Update: Apparently I had already ordered here once! Picked it up myself today where I no longer pay Uber for cold bad delivery! Burger is really very good! I love paying for quality, but this is just a little bit crazy! Which means it now remains an exception instead of the standard citizen! Staff is very professional! I gave more stars but still a total of 2 considering the bizarre prices!

Simply, the best (Smash) Burger money can buy.

One of the best-tasting burgers I've ever had. The smash cheeseburger with peanut butter and bacon jelly might sound unusual, but the flavors came together perfectly. Well deserved 5 stars! Highly recommend giving it a try!

Banger food Banger music Banger host ... Wonderful 👍

Banger service, Banger musik, Banger food and "that's what she said"

Went here a couple of times and really love it. Pro’s -Amazing and unique milkbuns -Delicious thin beef and aioli sauce -Fries are nicely crunchy on outside and soft on the inside Cons -A bit on the greasy side, i remember the oils came dripping from the beef right after serving but i guess thats to be expected of beef eh? :D All in all, amazing burgers and a must try

Best burger, really! I was so surprised ❤️

Tried the signature burger with spicy peanut. Worth it! Next time I try the bacon jam, too.

Some best burger and even perfect fries!!

Just great. I can recommend this place to everyone.

Wonderful burgers and fries! Best in the city!

Best vegetarian Burger I ever had, suuuper friendly service!

This is a must try for burger lovers. Excellent smash burger with perfect cooking

super salty burger and kind of burnt :(

Great smash burger, really nice with the spicy pickle ontop

I'd give them 10 stars if I could!

Nice owner, tasty burger, good topping. I would definitely eat there again. I have had more burgers in this price range and this one certainly fits this class

This is the best smash burger in Amsterdam. The size ratio of bun, patties and cheese and lettuce is perfectly portioned. The service is friendly and helpful. The interior is small, but cozy with seats so you can eat in or take away. We keep returning and it never disappoints.

Nice smashburger, definitely order with peanut and bacon jam 👌🏼

A great place which shows that good food does not need to be complex. The whole menu consists of the burger, fries (normal and sweet potato) and some drinks. The service is great and the food is amazing. And not to forget, everything (including the buns!) is made in-house. Definitelty worth a visit!

The burger was tasty and had a nice flavour to it. Having said that, it was dripping in oil, which detracted from the experience. I also thought it was expensive, especially when you compare it to other burger places in Amsterdam and the fact that it is a very basic setting, but charging restaurant prices. As a fan of burgers and having been wanting to try this place for a while, although I enjoyed my burger, overall I was a bit disappointed.

Amazing place. Especially worth it

The most delicious place in Amsterdam, a must eat 😋😋😋

One of the greasiest burgers I’ve ever tried. The buns are similar to McDonald’s, and overall, I wouldn’t recommend visiting this place.

It was so good must visit again ❤️❤️❤️

Amazing restaurant with great taste Nd top hospitality with friendly environment.

Was excited to try their cheeseburger but unfortunately it did not live up to expectations for me; there was no cheese to be found, and the burger was not well balanced in terms of flavours..

There is a growing trend of Smash Burgers in Amsterdam and Janana Burger has been leading the way for awhile now. I think the trend is a by product of just how bad and processed Dutch Burgers at most places are. By creating a smash burger you tend to avoid that as the patty needs to be of a higher smashable quality than your typical pre-sized factory patty you see at most places. A fine addition to the neighborhood, this burger joint really knows how to grill a burger. Eat here if you want to taste a well executed Maillard Reaction. The smash burgers, being of a thin patty and so wide that they come out of the bun, makes it something I would get more than one patty for. I will say that the extra toppings are a bit pricey for a burger so I tend to skip them since their burger is good enough anyway. They also do not accept cash. Recommendation: Get two pattys minimum.

The burger and potatoes were good.

Burger was delicious, the bun light and fluffy, perfect patties and fries were amazing. You can add interesting homemade toppings that you don’t see anywhere else, I had bacon onion jam - recommend!!

Best smash burger I've had in Amsterdam so far. Fries were perfect and heavy bonus points for Coca Cola in a glass bottle

Hmm, I don’t get the high rating tbh. It’s a good burger, but it’s a pretty basic one too (a bun, a hand made burger and cheese). For the price it’s really not that special or a lot. Also it’s not like super nice to sit and eat there, so only if you like hand made good yet basic burger and don’t care about spending more than average it is a good pick.

This has to be the best burger I have ever eaten. The size of the portion is on point and the taste is just amazing. Also the service is very polite and welcoming. I highly recommend bacon jam and sweet potato fries. The easiest 5 star review ever. Not a single second thought!

Really delicious smash burgers We liked the bacon jam as add on a lot Would wish for crunchy red onions on it too :-) Staff is super friendly as well!

Patty was on the dry side, for a smash burger. I found it a little cheap to make toppings as a paid option. Also to pay for mayo for the fries. For me, value isn't there

The delicious burger chips and bread Is one thing. But the service is from another planet. Amazing people!!

Burger is surprisingly large and filling. I tried the pickled spicy pepper topping and the kick really took the flavor over the top! Highly recommended.

The best burgers in town. Greetings from Poland!

Awesome burgers and very friendly staff. Nothing but good vibes in this place.

I would say they serve most tasteful and delicious smashed beef burger in Amsterdam. Every time , same flavor and quality. 5* keep it up Guys

Burger patty quite dry. Very frugal, pay for topping and sauce for fries. Overall disappointing

Omri was super excited to tell me about the burgers they make, and his enthusiasm was infectious. The burger was amazing and I can't wait to go back!

Great music - rock and indie from the late 90s and 00s, tasty smash burger 🍔 A few places to sit.

The best smashed burgers we've had! The sweet potatoes fries are some of the best I've tried as well and they both go very well with the horseradish mayo.

Good smash burger, the bacon jelly was almost a little too sweet for me personally. Otherwise a very good burger and the fries are great. The cabbage salad is also good.

Unbelievably tasty! You must try it

Janana Burger was recommended in the area and we are thrilled that we found this gem. Huge smash burgers with perfect maillard flavour in every bite, this monster put my hunger to rest. Wonderfully friendly service, and the spicy peanut butter was an amazing addition to the fries and the burger itself. I have eaten burgers all over and this wowed us. Fantastic work!

The smash burger was delicious and the fries were excellent!

Sooooo good; they definitely deserve the high rating they have on here. Just really nice smash burgers I don’t know what else to say. The meat was well seasoned and crispy, the bun was soft, the sauce they used was also delicious. I was licking my fingers by the end, good thing they give you a little lemon wipe lol.

Friendly man, delicious burgers. Highly recommended in Amsterdam West

Service was excellent. Omri was very happy and really brought as smiles before even touching the food! Excellent work!

So far Janana is my favorite smash burger in Amsterdam (have tried maijaard, bills and others) - great special toppings or good as is with just cheese. It's a really big serving for the burger alone and large portion of fries. Also really nice owner, always friendly and greets you with a smile

Delicious smashed burger. The fries texture is good but a bit too salty. Ordered through Uber, received hot and well packaged.

The veggie burger was delicious. I'm used to veggie burgers often lacking a bit of juiciness, but this one was perfect in every way! Absolutely delightful! The service was also very friendly. I will definitely be coming back here! Thank you very much!

The owner is such a nice person, the burger, fries, coleslaw was abolutely fantastic! Great taste, great service!

Nice people, good food and good vibes.

The server is super nice! I recommend you 😊

I ordered the burgers with fries from Uber eats and they were delivered too cold. Addition to that, the meat was too dry as well as the fries were not fresh at all. I disappointed because my previous experience with this place was better.

Literally the best burgers in Amsterdam!

Best smash burger, simple as that

1st meal on our arrival in Amsterdam: Really very, very good! Huge burger! And lots of fries! Very warm welcome, a big smile! I recommend!

One of the best burgers that I have tasted in a while, thx to the manager for his smile Ill come back

The burger is delicious. unique patty, it really is smashed, and the texture a little crunchy. Loved it. Buttery toasted bun and delicious sweet potato fries. Friendly service and clean environment.

Update: after one year they are still the best! A-ma-zing!!! The smashburgers are incredibly good. All made with fresh ingredients. Recommended to come early because they close when sold out 💯🍔

Amazing vegetarian burger! (The further one)

Best burger I've ever had, super friendly owner!

Amazing burguer! The portions are both quite big and super tasty, and the guy who attended us was so so kind. We will be for sure back!

One of the best vegetarian burgers I've ever eaten.
