Kebaya Asian brasserie & bar in Schiphol

Ate there a couple of times. Food was great. We ate when we went outbound and made sure to go back during inbound.

Very poor service and rude waitress. We thought the water would be complimentary as a normal practice in a restaurant. But no one came over and told us we need to order by ourselves. If we knew we would order at the very beginning instead of until the dinner is finished. Tried to complain it to the waitress, she didn’t quite understand me as she has poor English but instead arguing with me. I was almost going to tell her she needs to kneel down to apologize to me but I am too civilized

Food is very tasty. Big portions

Never come, the service is the worst, you have to almost beg the waiters to attend you, waited like 10 minutes just to have a menu. A Coke I ordered was never served and it took them time to take it away from my check. The food quality doesnt match the price, a chinese restaurant in any normal neighborhood in any city is better than this restaurant.

Do not recommend. There are better (food and service) restaurants in the airport. The food was good but not too flavorful. The staff was not attentive. They did not check on me once and I had to ask another waiter to get them for the check. I was sat by a busy work manager table and the staff was constantly coughing. Additionally, no to go boxes so we left after the food...food waste reduction should be important to this restaurant.

Waitress was very nice but Vegetarian ramen didn't have anything much except lot of corn and a few sprouts and seaweed for the hefty 20 euros charged. Broth was good. Photos in the menu are different from what is offered and do not recommend.

We had a delicious meal; everything was freshly made. The service was very attentive and patient, as we were having trouble scanning the menu. All the dining options were explained patiently. A nice spot at Schiphol, highly recommended.

Super friendly staff and the sandwiches are finger-licking good. We had a sticky tempeh sandwich on our outbound flight on 14/5. And on our return flight as well...

Its a disappointing restaurant, the service is so bad very slow.I would not recommend this restaurant.

This place is so overpriced for such disappointing food

Tempeh banh mi and bao buns were ok, the ladies at the takeout corner were nice but the bartender wasn’t very nice. One of them kept « throwing » the glass bottles super hard in recycling, breaking our ears. No allowed to eat from takeout menu at the bar/lounge area which was completely empty, made no sense.

The ambience is very nice - especially for airport restaurant. We were very happy with food, it looked simple but the flavors were great! It is slightly on costlier side but if you want something with flavors and maybe healthier - not just some sandwiches, this is solid place to eat ✨

I ordered drinks and food using the QR code on the table and waited for over 30 minutes, but only the drinks came out and the food didn't. When I asked, they said the order hadn't gone through. How did the drinks even get served? The ordering system is terrible... It used to be a place I liked, but I don't think I'll be going back.

For an airport restaurant, it's okay. The quality is decent, but the price is too high for the mediocre taste and quality. However, the service is pleasant and quick. There are plenty of tables, which is convenient while waiting for your flight.

Best airport restaurant I’ve ever eaten in. Tad expensive, but worth it.

Delicious, slightly expensive but best food around.

Sate and rice was not fresh order came within 10 min

Horrible website ordering app. I have never had to go through a survey in order to order food. Also short of staff. No one greets guests at the gate.

Got the tempeh banh mi for $8.50. Was weird that I can't eat it in the restaurant area (there was a takeaway area) when my colleagues were eating in the restaurant. However, the staff offered to heat up before we left.

Delicious food, good and fast service, friendly staff!!! Thank you all!!!

As an airport restaurant, it is good enough. Fast service, smiling staff. Ramen was good. Shrimp tempura and spring rolls were delicious

It’s good just not great. Like worth it if you’re in the mood for sushi and or noodles as it’s a great option to something you have met had for a while. Yet it’s just okay and you can find much better airport food here.

Food is good. Service could be improved. AMS is my hub and I usually stop at Kebaya. On the last two occasions the same waitress messed up the service. However, I still rate 4 for the food and seating area.

Lovely seating with a view of the E pier, excellent cappuccino

I got the coconut soup. This was probably the best soup I have had in years. It was so good, I was tempted to order a second one!

Extremely unpalatable. 16 Euros

Perfect for a breakfast omelette and a well prepared matcha. Good service and plenty of seating with wall plug, close to E gates, with screen inside.

Never faced this kind of rude staff behaviour so far. I waited at the reception and one of the staff member let me in and asked me to be seated. I walked to the table and was keeping my things while another staff member came over and questioned me “Don’t you know you need to wait for you to be seated?” I clearly told her; I did wait at the reception and one of her colleague let me in. That’s when her tone changed and she says “Oh but this is my area😳” I’m like whatttt? I had to tell her straight to face that it is very rude and harsh to treat customers this way. She responded back saying I was rude!! There was a third staff member who sensed the situation and was kind enough to ask me what’s going on. However, with the pathetic treatment of her colleague I had to tell her sorry this is highly disappointing to be treated this way while someone walks so long crossing all the airport gates to have some good food seated in a restaurant 😒 She understood what’s going on but I believe she didn’t have the authority to question or stop her colleague’s ridiculous behaviour :( I literally had tears because I was dead tired and expected to have some hot food there! They didn’t even let me be seated! The lady who handled me made sure she didn’t let me sit😣. Not sure what she gained out of this :( I told the kind staff member you guys should handle your fights within yourself and not affect customers :( highly unprofessional treatment. I sincerely hope your management checks the behaviour of this particular staff and treat this matter. Very upsetting even after an hour to think of the way I was treated :(

An okay place to eat after check-in at Schiphol Airport. A bit too price, but food and service is good. Couches could use a thorough cleaning / replacement

My wife and I had a 3.25 hour layover in Amsterdam's Schipol airport on our way home to Manchester after a short 3 day break in Dubrovnik. Despite being a very large modern airport, although there were numerous fast food concessions, there were surprisingly very few restaurants that served fresh cooked food to order in Lounge 2 - the Kebaya Asian Brasserie was the only restaurant we found that did! The airport and restaurant wasn't too busy on a Wednesday afternoon so we were seated immediately in the very stylish restaurant with an open kitchen. There were some very good Asian food options on the menu but the prices were horrendously high even for an airport restaurant! However, as we didn't fancy eating at McDonalds or any of the other fast food outlets we had to begrudgingly pay their extortionate prices. My wife had the Malay Chicken Satay (2pcs with a peanut sauce) and I had the Ebi Tempura (3pcs crispy panko fried shrimps with wasabi mayonnaise and sweet chilli sauce as our starters. She had the Redang satay beef stew with boiled rice and I had the Yaki Udon (Japanese Udon noodle dish, served with chicken and mixed vegetables) as our main courses. My wife had 2 bottles of Tsing Tao beer and I had a cuppa jasmine tea. The total bill was a whopping 119€, however, all the food was very tasty with genuine Asian flavours with the satay sauce being the star of the show, closely followed by the Yaki Udon & Redang beef.

Lovely, a real moment of peace after customs. A good start to your holiday.

Quite decent sushi, but overpriced. 18 euros for 8 frozen pieces!

Prices have gone up a lot compared to before. I ordered the poke with some worry because there were many reviews saying it wasn't tasty, but it was better than I expected. It was fine after adding soy sauce. As for the price... well, even considering it's an airport, 5 euros for a 200ml Coke is a bit much... I ordered a Chardonnay, but it seemed like it had been open for a while, which was disappointing. The atmosphere is nice for relaxing, but there are no power outlets. These days, even in Europe, a tip screen is displayed when you pay, but please don't tip, even if it is inconvenient. Leave the tipping culture to the US; saying thank you is enough.

The beef rendang is not rendang for me as an Indonesian. But it's okay, I was hungry at that time and look for Asian food that I could eat.

The food was acceptable; however, the service was disappointing. In particular, two members of staff (Annie and Alice, if I have spelled their names correctly) did not appear to be welcoming towards Asian customers, which felt rather ironic given that the restaurant specialises in Asian cuisine. After placing our order, my friends and I waited for quite some time, yet nothing was served. We eventually approached the staff for assistance, but two members of staff were occupied with their phones and appeared to ignore us, despite multiple attempts to make eye contact. After a prolonged wait with no response, we decided to leave, as no one seemed willing to assist us. At that point, the staff approached us in a rather blunt tone, asking why we were leaving without paying, as we had already placed an order. We explained our reasons, but were told that if they had not heard us, we should have come to the counter to speak to them. We did not expect five-star service in an airport setting; however, we do expect a basic level of attentiveness and courtesy, such as checking on customers or communicating politely. It is concerning to consider how this situation might have affected individuals who are less confident in English, such as my family. Overall, this experience was disappointing and did not reflect the standard of hospitality one would expect.

The food is delicious; I recommend it to those who like East Asian cuisine.

I was able to charge my phone while enjoying a drink. The food also looks very nice!

I’ve been going to this place for nearly a decade every time I have a layover in AMS. Best airport food you can get - fresh and fair prices (for an airport). I recommend the poke bowls.

****************** Edit****************** This was my first visit here after a long time. I had prawn Har Kau dim sum and Shoya Ramen. The food was excellent and staff very attentive. Good to have a better experience from my previous visit. Waited quite a while to get a table as staff were dealing with customer complaint. The guy showing us to a table poured the water left by previous customers over the table to clean it. We waited a long time to get our food delivered to the table. Main courses coming out before appetisers. All three of us served at different times. This report would have been 1 * if it was not for the food. The food was great and a good selection. Been here before and never had a problem. The staff seemed totally overwhelmed.

Chrispy Duck was amazing, they don't have that in Beijing!! A big 10

Asked for a sushi Nigiri plate with 8 pieces. I got 8 indeed but 1 was avocado because they were out one one of the fish. I complained and I got one extra. The sizes of the Nigiri pieces were the smallest I gave ever seen. The taste very mediocre. Not recommended..at least for sushi. Also expensive, 30 euros

Calling instant noodles ramen for 25 eur is a joke..

"Ramen" is a joke. Instant noodles

Hier is een iets warmere Google-review (4-sterren stijl) die vriendelijker overkomt: A nice and quiet place to enjoy a relaxed meal. The atmosphere is calm and comfortable, which makes it a pleasant spot for dinner. Unfortunately, the meat was a bit tough and not as tender as expected. Other than that, the dish was nicely presented and the overall experience was still enjoyable. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Very comfortable, ordered online. But they deliver very quickly. There's plenty of space, and you can see the airport.

One vegan meal option, and it had to be modified to be vegan. It's 2026 and we don't need to torture animals for a meal anymore.

Great place to get coffee and breakfast! No hectic vibes here

Pricey but the food ( sushi & etc ) is really really good , corner of the E gates... It's also a very relaxing place great window views and not too busy & well spaced tables to relax at .... Easy order through web & pay .. delivery to your table near & simple

While the restaurant looks modern and clean, the food didn’t match the presentation. The miso chicken ramen was quite bland and not worth the price. I was also disappointed that no water was served throughout my visit. The waitress wasn’t very attentive & only came round to give me a iPad to place my order. The menu on the iPad was limited however when you searched key foods they came up separately. Overall not worth the money.

The staff here invented the new definition of terrible service. What a bunch of headless uninterested people being paid for no good reason.

Went in and asked the waitress for a place for 2 and she just said go sit there, then found the chair not clean and has food particles so I asked if she can clean it but her reply (It was cleaned in the morning and left)!!so I had to clean it cuz next table chairs were even worse. Not professional waitress at all

Before a long trip, we ate at Kebaya in Amsterdam Airport. For an airport restaurant, it's very modern and luxuriously furnished, with a great location offering a fantastic view of the runway from the windows. A waiter escorts you to your table and gives you a tablet to easily place your orders. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. There were three of us, and we ordered two pasta dishes and one rice dish – all delicious. While the restaurant is a bit more expensive compared to snack bars or fast-food chains, it's definitely a place we'd recommend.

Very nice place with good food! Very friendly service, greetings for the lady, who organized some spicy chilli for my Ramen. Definitely, one of the best spots to chill at AMS.

Disappointing service and food. 2/3 members at my table got food, one member did not get their meal. The staff gave three different reasons why it wasn’t there - none were appropriate or truthful - as I watched the kitchen staff panic over the ticket item they missed due to not having staff in that part of the kitchen.

The nice, clean exterior attracted me, and I decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, the quality of the food was far below expectations. Despite the dish's appearance, the meat arrived lukewarm and tough, and the vegetables weren't the best either. Edamame were decent and plentiful, perhaps a little too salty. The price was excessive, although in line with Dutch prices.

Delicious food! Flavorful dishes, nice atmosphere, and friendly service. Definitely recommended.

The food was terrible and the service was awful. Don't come here!

This is the first time I've had a good meal at an airport. We tried several places while waiting for our flight, and this was also the only place where the staff were friendly and smiling. The prices are a bit high, but let's not forget it's an airport restaurant.

I was under the weather and having the TOM KA KAI soup & Lemon Green Sencha with a small piece of cake lifted my spirits. Soup was tasty & the green tea with cake combination was awesome.

📍Lounge 2 Schiphol Airport 🪑The decor is nice. You can eat here in peace, which is its advantage over other locations. 🛎️ Bizarrely bad and slow. A 10-minute wait for a table. Then you have to wait 20 minutes for sushi. Friends, you don't have to cook anything. The problem isn't the wait. People are standing in line while the tables are empty and the staff is just chilling. 💰Absurd for what you pay. 6 mini slices of sashimi, 10 small pieces of sushi €32.50, and the menu says "Richly Filled," yes, with decorations. See photo. 🍽️ The food was fine, not good, not bad. However, considering the price, it's poor. 📋Overall, a suitable emergency solution if you don't want to go to McDonald's or another takeaway place at Schiphol.

It took a few minutes to be 'noticed' as we were waiting to be seated but in fairness, wd could see that the staff were busy serving tables, clearing plates and resetting place-settings etc. Ordering your food couldn't be any easier with using a tablet with all the choice of menu on (you pay at the end of the meal). The food came swiftly and was absolutely delicious 😋.

Terrible service, no staff guiding seat at entrance. Unknowingly we push trolley inside to find seat, after we finally found seat. A middle age lady approach and remind our trolley is in the way and is not allow here. After saying she just walked away. We were in confuse is trolley not allow at the place we put or not allow in restaurant? The moment we step in, no staff remind or guide us, only warning we get and nothing. Out of tiredness we decided to take out everything in trolley and push the empty trolley outside since we really need to eat and rest. Bear in mind, we scan and order by our own. After a while another group came in with trolley, this time this same middle aged lady treat them differently. She advise them where to place the trolley and take their order in friendly manner. So I have a perception this restaurant treat customers in preference and they can act this way since it is the only Asian restaurant in airport.

Worst restaurant ever, should not operate in Airport if cannot serve all customers, was there for a good 5-10 minutes no one bothered to attend the table .while other tables which was occupied after me was been seved

Tried to eat here but didn’t get past waiting to be seated. It wasn’t busy and waited for around 10min . Several staff noticed us but was ignored. Asked a few members of staff but they were not interested and said we have to wait to in seated . Waited a few more minutes and ended up going elsewhere. Extremely disappointed in their customer service. I have been there a few times before without any issues.

Only good part of this place is the atmosphere and rest is pathetic. They say food is fresh but it tasted like made a day ago and just reheated. For the price, this place is not worth at all.

Really professional service, helpful (the young Asian lady helped me with my phone!), excellent food! Recommend!

Unfriendly staff ! Overpriced Next in AMS other place

The place is comfortable and clean, and the service was okay— the waitress was friendly. The food arrived in about 15 minutes. However, the food itself was disappointing. I don’t think it’s worth the price, it’s quite expensive, but for an airport it’s understandable.

I was delayed for a flight and received a voucher so I was looking for a place to sit down. I found Kebaya in the departures lounge. I bought a few items with my voucher (for 28 euros - note that the payment terminal forces you to work through a tipping section) from the very prominent displays and wanted to sit down at a table in a near empty restaurant. The response was “we can’t let you sit there sir”. And that was that. I gave back the food, received no refund and walked away. And no visible sign for anyone walking in that guests buying at the counter are not wanted in the seating area, only in the bar area. The young man behind the counter started apologizing but his manager took no mercy on me. No seating for the wicked! I do not want a corporate response to this post: the point is that an airport is transient by default. No one expects that food bought in an open plan walk in restaurant at Schiphol can’t be eaten in that same restaurant.

I visited about 10am week day staff seemed distracted, Menu is great good options I opted for the salmon bowel Food arrived in good time quality was very good full of flavours and good portion sizes What let down the experience was staff attention like when paying bill it felt rushed and you where a announce to hurry out

Best food I had in an airport in a while. We lost our connection so had some time to look for options. The reviews threw doubts but we decided to give it a try. I tried the Pork Shoyu Ramen and my wife had the Beef Teriyaki with white rice. What a lovely meal! Guys at the desk were really friendly, what a great experience, especially after losing the flight. Recommended!

Simply the worst meal in many,many years

The place is big. The service is friendly. All good

Quality of the rice is so bad it should be illegal

It was super tasty, but there are really a lot of downsides: instead of a tempura roll, they gave us the tempura separately. So, back to waiting for our order again. It was really ridiculously expensive.

Expensive, but it is an airport. What is annoying is that the food is not good. Maybe not awful, but not good. App ordering is annoying given the high prices.

worst service ever. staff behaves like you are coming to eat for free while prices are very expensive

Staff are rude service arrogance

⭐ Rating: 2.5 / 5 I recently visited Kebaya Asian Brasserie after hearing mixed opinions, and unfortunately, my experience leaned toward the disappointing side. At first glance, the place looks quite nice — clean, neat, and well-maintained. Presentation-wise, the food also looked appealing and hygienic. However, the taste didn’t live up to the appearance. My dish arrived cold, and honestly, I don’t know who would enjoy eating cold rice and veggies that were supposed to be served warm. The rice was sticky, and although the vegetables on top had a decent flavor, the overall dish just didn’t work for me. Another downside was the service experience. The staff member at the counter wasn’t particularly friendly or welcoming. Interestingly, I did notice another staff member being quite polite and attentive to other customers, so it might depend on who you interact with. For the price point, I expected much better flavor and service. It’s definitely on the expensive side for what you get. While the place seems hygienic and well-kept, the food and customer experience didn’t justify the cost.

There didn’t seem to be much else around but this was fine. A nice cold beer and the noodle ramen wasn’t too bad. Not the most authentic meal but can’t complain about too much, it did the job.

Food came out in 5 minutes and it was as the best airport food I’ve ever had

We had a delicious meal, but it is on the (enormously) expensive side.

The egg in the ramen was incredibly sour. I've never had eggs like this anywhere in the world. They say it's pickled eggs, but I spat it out as soon as I ate it, but my mother started vomiting as soon as she got on the plane. When I complained, the server said I was the only one who had complained that evening and never came back. Another male server apologized on my behalf and didn't charge me, but my mother got sick with food poisoning on the plane. After I complained, the person eating next to me said the same thing, and only then did they say they were checking with the kitchen.

We should have checked the reviews beforehand. The summer rolls were great, but the ramen was mediocre. The noodles were overcooked, the egg was too hard, and the soup, unfortunately, wasn't strong enough.

Terribly over priced!!! Food was served cold. Bad attitude from the staff. Avoid at all cost. Never again.

Kenny is the best! Incredible service and great environment!

Came here for breakfast and chose a menu via tablet. I picked coffee and an Asian omelette. The coffee was served immediately, but by the time the omelette arrived, it had become cold. The food is surprisingly good for an airport!

Whilst waiting for our flight, we had a late lunch at Kebaya. A lovely eatery and well worth a visit for some asain cuisine. Staff were all so friendly and helpful! Took time to explain how to order etc then took our meal and drinks order. A good variety of dishes and drinks on the menu to suit all tastes. Fast service for food and drinks. A lovely lunch and would recommend a visit.

Food was quite tasty, but portion is rather small for the price you paid. Well it's airport food so you can kind of expect the price, but giving just a bit more food/rice won't cost you that much also. I am quite small myself and I am also not a big eater, but I was still hungry finishing the meal. Service was not the nicest. My table was not properly cleaned or set up. I can still see pieces of food visibly on the table. When food was given to me, there was no napkin or cutlery accompanied. There was also none on my table. I had to get them myself elsewhere... Not once the waiter/waitress came over to check if everything was okay also. Probably one of the nice ones at the airport, but for the price you paid, it should have been way better, and it also costs the restaurant almost nothing just to give more rice in the pokebowl and set up tables properly in the future. Would I be coming back? Maybe not, unless there is no better option.

BEST EXPERIENCE EVER, THE MOST FUN AND BEST EXPERIENCE EVER DRINKS ARE TOP FOOD IS SUPER DELICIOUS AND MOST IMPORTANTLY FRIENDLY STAFF AND MANAGER

I always stop by to eat at this restaurant every time I'm flying from Schipol. The food is delicious in this restaurant.

really bad sushi and service dont eat here

Surprisingly fresh! Fast. Nice that they had travel soy sauce containers. Expensive though, 30 euro for salmon plate and seaweed salad.

We ordered tempura sushi from the bar. The rice was dry. The taste was good. The price was high. There is a restaurant next door with more options.

The ramen tastes terrible, and they charge a 10% tip without warning. If you see this, run away and don't eat inside. The ramen tastes terrible, and they charge a 10% tip without warning. If you see this, run away and don't eat inside.

We’ve come here many times before. We arrived early in the morning so they did not have sushi available. The place next door did. My kids and I were going to order from Kebaya while my wife would eat the takeout sushi. They would not allow her to eat inside with us even though the rest of us ordered from the restaurant. I am all about rules, however, not when they make no sense. I get not allowing people to bring other food in if they are just trying to find a spot. But the rest of us were literally ordering from their restaurant. Always recommended this place in the past, never again.

Poor food quality and terrible lazy service. Not recommended 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

The breakfast menu is available until 11 a.m., with three inexpensive dishes; otherwise, it's more expensive (typical for airports). I found the vegetarian noodles very tasty; the portions were modest but carefully selected. You order from a tray, and then the drinks arrived incorrectly. Overall, the wait wasn't long (about 20 minutes). Very tasty, only 4 stars because I think the €28.50 teriaki noodles are too expensive, and the service was okay.

food is always at the highest level!

I had a terrific experience at Kebaya on a not-busy Saturday morning. Service was quick and friendly. The quirky colorful modern decor is fun without being annoying. My ramen bowl was plenty large and filled with the usual goodness. Let’s be honest, food options at Schiphol are awful. Their current highest Google rated restaurant is a cheese store that is not even a restaurant. For me Kebaya easily wins my vote for the most delightful enjoyable cuisine between flights.
