Amazing dining experience. This was our last restaurant on our Amsterdam trip and we loved everything about it. The “pick your own seafood” concept was pretty neat, and we loved how you’re allowed to select your own portions! The food, presentation & service was 10/10. The restaurant itself is a work of art, and their deserts are a must try. Highly recommend anyone visiting Amsterdam to check them out!

The market-style fish stalls at the entrance feel like an authentic seafood market, with knowledgeable staff and an impressive variety to choose from. The wine station is equally professional, offering a great selection. Everything that came from the kitchen was perfectly cooked and a real treat for the palate. The atmosphere is lively, and the service is professional and friendly.

The fish market concept is really cool, and that's what we came for. But this is really extremely overpriced for what it is. €160 for a lunch for two. There was only one other table, so perhaps the "real" chef wasn't working and his replacement was doing it. But the fish wasn't quite prepared correctly and didn't feel as tender or fresh as I'd expected from a "catch of the day" concept specializing in fish. And paying €44 for (literally, no hyperbole) 1.5 crab legs is a rip-off. For that price, you can almost get a whole seafood platter at the competition. On top of that, you notice some clumsy things like lights that aren't adjusted properly and shine in your eyes, dirty/broken restrooms, and tables that are too long for the "shared dining" concept. Which would be fine in a food court, but not acceptable in a restaurant where you pay €160 for a lunch for two.

I can't say enough good things about Pesca. It wasn't just dinner it was a dining experience. No Menus, you are greeted and walked over to the Theatre of Fish with all the fresh offerings on display. You pick out how much or how little of each item you want (except for the whole fish) and are explained how each will be prepared or what options you have. We went with a lot of different options so we could try as much as possible. Then you swing by the Wine market where you can pick out a bottle, cocktail, or glass of wine. Service was amazing and the food was stellar. I would say this is my favorite seafood dinner I've ever had. As a starter we had the Hamachi. Definitely get the bread because it and the butter it's served with are amazing. Then we had a couple of scallops, Octopus, Gambas, the mussels and clam combination, calamari strips, soft shell crab, and finished it off with my favorite fish of all, Turbot. If you love seafood you will remember this restaurant for the rest of your life. Cheers!

Amazing fish restaurant in Amsterdam. It is not cheap (with wine you can easily reach 100€ per person) but deserves any euro spent. Fresh fish (concept based on day fishing availability) that you choose from the fish bar and the restaurant will recommend the best cooking options.

I love the concept of picking your proteins - especially the fresh fish - and sides as a group. And the fish was all cooked to perfection! However the limited methods of preparation was a bit disappointing. And you have to go with patience in mind and expecting an experience - which is fine. But if you show up hungry and want to get to your table to order and eat - then snack before you come! All our servers were great and attentive. Place is lively and it was hard to hear others at our table from time to time. I would recommend and would definitely dine there again!

A fun concept, the food was also delicious. The oysters are highly recommended. 9 out of 10 items were truly delicious. One drawback is that you have to wait a while at the fresh fish section to order. When it's busy, the wait can be quite long. Red prawns are not recommended; they're not fresh, but frozen.

The most dishonest gimmicky pricing I've ever seen in a restaurant. Putting the quality of the food aside, you won't exactly know how much you are paying for because there is no written menu where you can think about what you're ordering and how much you're paying. The dishonest bit comes with the hidden cost to a "pesca foundation" they will add to the bill, without your full prior knowledge and consent. What it is the pesca foundation ? Who knows. I won't mention the hilariously embarrassing sardine can charade at the start.

The squid was 6/10. The shrimp was 9/10 and the size was amazing. The fish (I don't know what it's called, about half-bodied, according to their recommendation, it's the most expensive type, but honestly, it doesn't taste great. I'd have preferred sea bass, but the seasoning was good.) The restaurant is nice, and I think you need a reservation if it's late.

A wonderful experience at this "fish market." Upon entry, a beautiful display of fresh fish awaits you; they let you choose your fish and suggest how to prepare it. They then let you choose your wine, and then you're escorted to your table. The place is charming, with beautiful soft lighting, and the waiters and service are friendly and well-timed. The price is fair for the quality! Well done.

Fantastic, the food here is so good! You'll receive a friendly welcome and then order your own fish dishes at the fish market. Fresh fish is presented on ice. You'll be given an explanation of how it's prepared, and from there you can make your choice. Then you can browse the wine market while enjoying a glass of cava and choosing a suitable wine. Then you sit down at the table, where you'll be amazed by the delicious dishes you can share. Beautifully presented. The smoked oysters were so delicious. The fish, the mussels, Asian-style, were top-notch. Everything was, in a word, AWESOME!!!

Compared to the eye-catching ordering system, the food itself was rather underwhelming. The scallops and prawns were good, but I didn't understand why the scallops were cold when they arrived; I thought this dish should be served hot. The squid was a disappointment; I didn't really like the deep-fried and sauced style. I prefer the Japanese style of squid, blanched with wasabi and soy sauce. The octopus legs were the biggest disappointment—very tough and chewy, lacking the proper springy texture. I don't know if this was due to the ingredient itself or the chef's cooking technique. I came from Portugal, where octopus legs are generally much better.

A must go seafood restaurant. Everything about this place was exceptional! You start of being greeted at the door and explained how the evening will go. You next head to the “fish market” where you select the fish that you will specifically be eating for the evening. The man working there talked as through how each fish would be prepared, asked for our likes and preferences and then recommended certain items and quantities of things. Once you’ve selected your fish, you make your way over to the wine nook; here, a server recommends wine based on the fish you have selected. Once seated, you can see into the kitchen where all the fish is prepared and brought out in rounds. The staff here are some of the friendliest most helpful servers I’ve ever experienced. They went above and beyond to make sure we were having an enjoyable evening. If you love seafood, this is a must-go stop.

We booked a Dinner for Two through AMEX Experience at Pesca Amsterdam. Upon arrival, we first had to scan a QR code in the AMEX app. Fine, if it worked—but the app refused to log in. We tried on two phones, nothing worked. And what did the staff do? Absolutely nothing. We were simply left standing at the counter, without help, without understanding, without any effort to think along. This is exactly how you ruin a pleasant afternoon. You expect professionalism from a restaurant like Pesca and a brand like AMEX, but this was downright unfriendly, impersonal, and clumsily handled. A real shame about the experience.

Very nice seafood place, cool concept of choosing your meal before sitting down. Irish oysters were so good (I had to get seconds!) The sea bass fish was nice but a little plain (I took it home and just cooked up the next day was still nice) , the fries were crunchy and soft inside so yummy, the mussels in the white wine sauce was delicious, the pulpa (octopus) was nicely grilled although not my favourite it was still nice just a bit chewy at the top but softer as you go down, the tuna steak was divine, the bread with the butter was good❤️the yellow tail sashimi with European soy sauce was sooo good, must try so fresh and the prawns were big and juicy, the green sauce wasn’t to my taste but it was still good (I usually have spice but nothing was spicy which is not the end of the world) the staff was friendly, sometimes hard to get their attention but it was also busy at the same time so it’s super understandable, they explained the dishes well and some of the dishes you get to choose between options. For all of the dishes + a glass of Chardonnay and fizzy came up to almost €150🥹 which is worth the experience in my opinion. Thank you Pesca!

A funny concept, it feels a bit like an amusement park. Everything was cooked well, but I think we were a little thrown off by the concept. The only options for main courses are seafood, which is helpful to know going in. It was slow getting silverware and water when we asked for it.

What a feast! Pesca truly deserves its reputation as the best fish restaurant in town. From the moment you walk in, you feel it’s not just dining — it’s an experience. I went with my girlfriend and daughter, and from the very first bite we were smiling. My daughter was so delighted she couldn’t stop spinning around on her chair — that’s how much fun she was having! We started with freshly baked bread and cured salmon, followed by crispy fried river crabs — salty, juicy, and perfectly crunchy. Then came a parade of ocean delights: red gurnard served with a delicate buttery sauce that beautifully highlighted its sweet, ocean flavor; tender pulpo with just the right char; and a selection of fresh shellfish, each cooked to perfection and bursting with taste. The vongole pasta was simply divine — creamy, rich, and full of that deep, briny character that takes you straight to the sea. Even the sides stood out: golden fries that couldn’t be crispier and aubergine so tender and flavorful it practically melted in your mouth. To top it all off, we had a beautiful white wine from Zeeland — fresh, mineral, and the perfect match for the meal. At Pesca, you don’t just taste fish — you taste craftsmanship, joy, and genuine love for the product. The staff is warm and knowledgeable, the atmosphere relaxed yet refined, and the whole experience feels like dining in a modern fish market with a touch of theatre.

Unique but inefficient concept. There's a front counter where you can pick out your entire meal, and this is the first step. Staff were really helpful and informative, though the dishes were a bit hit or miss. Oysters, hamachi, scallops and octopus were quite good. The "pickled salmon" was incredibly bland, as was the whole grilled fish, finished with a picante style sauce? Overall a cool dining experience but not something worth repeating.

Great concept! Super-friendly service who explained everything to us thoroughly, and we had a truly delicious meal. Because of the crowds, the first area where you're greeted is a bit cluttered. It feels a bit too literal to call the fish market: busy and noisy. We could barely hear the fishmongers over all the noise. You also have to really try to get the server's attention to order drinks at the table. The focus is mainly on serving the food, which I understand is a problem during busy times. We'll definitely be back at a quieter time!

What a fantastic experience at Pesca! From the time we walked in the door, the hostess was busy with many customers but she was gracious, polite and took care of each person patiently. We met with the staff that introduced the evening's seafood. He went through each item clearly and with extensive knowledge. We didn't feel pressure or concerned with over ordering. We wanted a number of dishes so we could try different seafood. It was nice that each dish had it's own unique cooking preparation. We proceeded to order our drinks and we met with another knowledgable and friendly staff member. He let us taste different wines before we made our selection. We then proceeded to the dining room and was greeted quickly. After we sat down, our food came in a timely manner, a few at a time so we could enjoy each one. We started with fresh oysters from Ireland and they were sweet and delicious. Next dish was the panko crusted soft shell crabs. Another amazing dish. The pan fried scallops with the foam was amazing, the only downside was that my partner had a much bigger piece than me. We finished with grilled langoustines. Flavorful but not much meat on it. Still, a wonderful simple preparation that showcased the sweetness of the langoustines. Everything from the service, food and atmosphere was 5 stars. We loved the concept of being able to order based on what was fresh and in season and not have a menu to order from. Staff was well educated. Overall this was a great experience and we wish a concept like this was in San Francisco.

Pesca isn’t just a restaurant. It’s a whole experience around seafood. The concept of “theatre of fish” is executed beautifully as you select from the freshest seafood on display, guided by staff who are both knowledgeable and then it’s prepared to perfection. They are good at getting your money, as you work through the "fish market", then to the "wine and beer market" finally end up at the cocktail bar, even before sitting. But, in all honesty, it was worth the experience. Every dish we tried was exceptional, and the flavors were vibrant, balanced, and simply unforgettable. My only criticism was that once you were at your table, you had a multitude of servers, and quite frankly, just felt like "another table". Putting that small critique aside, Pesca is a must-visit if you love seafood!

My family and I enjoyed delicious dinner at Pesca Seafood Restaurant. Both the atmosphere and the service were outstanding, and the chef skillfully highlighted the characteristics of the ingredients. I highly recommend everyone to enjoy the food at this restaurant.

We had a great dinner here! We've been to one in Rdam before and really wanted to check out the one here. Mussels, tuna and bread - everything was fantastic! Most of the staff seemed happy too - there was only one guy who looked quite emotionless. Prices are on the higher side, but considering the quality and that it's seafood, it is absolutely worth it! Still, we love the seafood here and would def consider coming back to Pesca!

Food was delicious. All the dishes we got were good. The scallops were my favourite. The cauliflower was also really nice. Great atmosphere, friendly service! 10/10

this concept is so fun. You go from a fish market to the wine market and set up your own shared dining experience. But more than this delicious food and great concept, the service makes this really special. It is one of the few places where the staff is so genuinely excited to help and it makes the experience 10 times better. Thanks to all the staff for going above and beyond (like the hostest giving local tips to a girl that just moved to Amsterdam, youre the sweetest!)

Incredible experience, some of the best and freshest seafood I’ve ever had. The whole experience is amazing from the fish market selection to the wine room. We had the best oysters ever, the hamachi crudo was out of this world, and the monkfish was so excellent we were licking the plate, must try this place!!

Well what can I say, my first time eating at Pesca (as a Brit) I was behold satisfied, I’m not a huge fish eater but I would definitely recommend and come back, I’m not a fan of filleting fish so I had the monkfish which was very pleasant/elegant. Staff were friendly and cheerful.

The concept is really fun. Everything is talked through with you very well, if there is any questions you may have the staff will happy help you. The food was amazing, wonderful combinations and very fresh. They are understanding with allergies and double check with you through the process. There is little left to desire, the only thing is I think the table service could meet the same level as all of the other interactions during the experience, as areas of it were a little abrupt. This did not impact the experience though. I had a lovley time.

Great fish restaurant. You stand in front of a large display case of raw fish that you've chosen yourself to be prepared. A fantastic experience. It couldn't be fresher. 👍It's best to reserve a table online the day before. Without an online reservation, there's no chance of getting a seat.

It has an ordinary taste, and some dishes are unflavored beyond the sauces, nothing special, but expensive. You are paying the price of a beautiful restaurant with an original concept, where you are free to choose your own fresh fish.

Amazing seafood place! Great choice of the fresh catch, well prepared and served. One of the best seabass preparations I've ever had, scallops were incredible too. Staff it's attentive and fast, and wine choice is wide. Nice desserts too.

I'm a great fan of seafood! And here you really get Seafood! First you can choose what you want with the tips of an expert. Then you come to your table and get everything in a perfect timing, never too early, never too late. And also super friendly, you get everytime explained what it excatly is in a great way. The taste is only describable as, GODLIKE! I was already in 32 countries, but this was the best I ever had, never before was the taste composition such a great one and fitting, normally something is boring or too much, but here, No Way! So if you like Seafood and are willed to spend for, don't wait, reserve now!

Great concept marred by inefficient service. Had a delicious meal here - the seafood is fresh and being able to pick it out right off the ice was a fun experience. Food was delicious as well and they were able to accommodate dietary restrictions pretty well. Unfortunately, the system for ordering and paying is not well setup. The same checkout counter is used to check in (reservation or otherwise), as well as to pay at the end of the meal. It did not seem like there was a server assigned to each table and we had a lot of trouble flagging them down for anything. It was frustrating to go back to the front and wait in line to pay at the end of the meal. Additionally, the line to pick your food as well as the check-in/check-out line are right next to each other, leading to a very crowded entrance.

A unique seafood concept where you experience going to a mini fish market and choosing your cuts of fish and then to a wine market for a wine pairing. Everything was delicious!

A wonderful welcome with cava in hand, as we selected the freshest fish. This was accompanied by expert explanations of the preparation method and advice on quantities. We chose a delicious wine to complement the fish, following the culinary route we were on, and the enjoyment began. Wow, what fish delights! Lots of fun and inspiring conversations about the slogans on the shirts of the cheerful, handsome staff in a relaxed, super enjoyable atmosphere. A truly unique concept! Highly recommended!

A real must for all fish lovers! Pesca is a whole experience where you create your own menu at the fish market and choose a matching wine at the wine market (with the help of the friendly staff!!!). Every dish was delicious (especially the pulpo) and the price-quality was great. I will definitely come back when I am in Amsterdam.

During our final two hours in Amsterdam, my mother and I dined at this restaurant and were thoroughly impressed. Our hostess, Isha, demonstrated exceptional hospitality by accommodating us despite our lack of a reservation, understanding it was our last evening in the city. Her warmth, professionalism, and attentiveness—along with that of the entire staff—made our experience truly memorable. We are deeply grateful for Isha’s outstanding service. (Recommendation: reservations are highly advised. This restaurant is an excellent choice when visiting the Amsterdam canals.)
