Mer du Nord in Kinkerbuurt

Yummy oysters, no wait and people, tasted great, hygiene could be slightly improved by washing g hands before opening the oysters. Yummy food!

Fish and chips for €15, almost unseasoned, tastes like nothing. Service was extremely unenthusiastic even though there was nothing going on.

Loved the food and service here. Do check the open hours for the restaurant before comin, it’s 11am!

The Service was fast and great, food is fresh and super tasty. I had the Oyster Plate to try and fell in love with it like Shrek to Fiona nom nom

The chef was very nice smiling man who asked me how my day was going before ordering. I ordered small bites crispy cod and got a very big portion! When I was surprised and asked is that is small, the very kind chef said no, but this is for your smile and asking me how I was this morning as well. The fish is very tasty and crispy and the staff is so kind!

Fried cod and calamari was nice and crunchy

Wonderful food... super attentive service! Try the squid (calamari) and the Dutch Smelt Fish which looks like a slightly smaller manjubinha and has a milder flavor.

Super tasty food. Good hygiene and full of flavour. I would definitely recommend it!

A really great tent. Nice atmosphere, good food and pleasant employees. Very hygienic and the food is packed with flavour. Everything is recommended, but the softshell crab is packed with flavor. Very try!

I have been having the soft shell crab and shrimp since the Foodhallen opened! This was the worst experience- the fish was undercooked and the service was really poor for 27$ for 4 buns. When you charge a luxury price please remember to deliver good food and service.

You pay 24.99 for one "large" oyster 🦪 and five small ones... Their vinaigrette is overdone

Fried small fishes must!!!!!!! And service always good ! Thank you 😊

Delicious food and thanks for the tips. Nabil is great! We will definitely come back here!

Very, very tasty food and super nice service!! The chef was so nice, we felt like we were in good hands! You were my highlight of the weekend with your food and your style :) the mixed platter was so delicious and then your little extra afterwards, Hmmm heavenly ❤️ a successful trip and we're looking forward to stopping by when we're back Amsterdam are! Thank you 🙏🏻

Very nice atmosphere, nice staff. Very cheap and tasty! Highly recommended.

Oysters were shucked fresh and they were delicious. Gentleman working was very friendly and helpful.

Absolutely love this place for their delectable seafood dishes! 🐟

Amazing service and food, very large quantity of food for the price as well. Highly recommended getting the mixed plate!

The crab baos are delicious, I recommend them! The wait was a little long, but the atmosphere of the place made the wait go away in my opinion 😄

Really that bad. That there is absolutely no control from the food halls as to what the stands do. Fish was really bad. Chips were inedible. Disinterest of the staff. Not even worthy of 1 star Very disappointing and way overpriced. .

Amazing fresh plus great service from Ismael!

Super service! Food is always great

As every comment… the oysters are a scam and expensive and the staff is terrible

Had cod bites and chips. Chips were good but had to pay extra for sauce. Fish bites rubbery and tasteless - not fresh at all!

Very mediocre, sauce costs extra and comes from a tube. Hygiene questionable (everything is touched with fingers), "cook" has music plugs in his ears. The music plugs should have been a warning. The ambience of the “Foodhallen” is nice, but that is no credit to “Mer Du Nord”. Not a recommendation, on the contrary!

Unfortunately the really worst oysters ever - and I've had many. If you couldn't give a star, I would. 6 pieces for 25€. 🤦🏻‍♀️ tiny and tasteless. A complete disappointment.

6 oysters for 25 euros. These were the worst and smallest oysters I have ever eaten. The kitchen boy who opened it dug around with a knife and cut up the oysters. Don’t take Oyster at that place!!!

Both the service and the food leave a lot to be desired. The guy who served us was quite unpleasant to us and the cod nuggets we had ordered didn't taste like anything. We were lucky that at another stall they gave us a sauce with the potatoes and we were able to use it to give some flavor to the cod. We have eaten stones with more flavor than the cod in those nuggets.

Excellent fish place! Super fresh food, the staff is super friendly. I recommend!

Disappointing, primarily due to the poor customer service. I was served by an unenthusiastic staff member, no "Hello", pulled a blank face, and barely spoke. I ordered fish and chips which came with a small pot of sauce. When I politely asked if it was possible to get some more sauce, the same staff member responded rudely, as if I was inconveniencing him. He said he already gave me sauce. Despite being willing to pay for the extra sauce, it was treated as a major issue, leaving me feeling uncomfortable. I just walked away. I cannot recommend Mer du Nord Restaurant based on my experience based off their poor hospitality and customer service.

Good food but terrible order management. Says 4 minute for fried small fish and it's not ready after 15 minutes. Happend more than once.

Just the best Dutch oysters, incredible service as well

Great selection of fresh seafood. Friendly and delicious.

Amazing staff & service! So friendly and welcoming, lots of zest & passion for what they do, delectable & well-presented assortment. Wandered into this magical place by chance when exploring the neighborhood on my only night in town. Surrounded by a vibrant atmosphere of culinary choices from a diverse selection of nations, well-illuminated and acoustically astir. I placed myself across from the oyster bar - where lo and behold my hungry eyes came across the most beautiful Dutch man the universe had ever created. He was sipping on a beer, casually enjoying the evening chatting with the oystress. I invited him over to my table with a wave of the chin and instantly was able to inspect this nearly perfect human being from a few inches away. Tall, dark, and handsome - straight from Hollywood. For several minutes I was Jennifer Lawrence and he was (a taller) Bradley Cooper… Soon lost in chat about dreams, travel, Chicago, Denver, LA, etc… levitating, and laughing. Back in Tokyo today… Too bad he ain’t *my* oyster… but the taste will linger 💔

Oyster sharing plate was fresh!

The place to be, Lobster roll, cod nuggets, kalamari, everything unbelievable amazing, the person behind it, Collette, the sweetest and kindness person i have ever meet, if you are in the Food Hallen you definitely have to stop at this stand and try everything they have…

Ik ben al jaren een enorme oesterfan, bij mer du nord merk je dat de oesters vers zijn en dat de dressing altijd tip top in orde is. Een echte aanrader is de lobster roll en voor de oesters de Ierse Mor en de Zeeuwse Creuse!

Very good variety and freshness of the oysters. Simple but yet complete menu.

I have never tried a lobster roll this good before! This deserves all the stars. The taste was amazing and the people that helped me were really kind.

Lobster roll does not meet expectations for this price. Tiny, and tastes bad. However, oysters were tasty.
