Proper Indofood in De Weteringschans

Absolutely recommend! I’ve been living in Amsterdam for 9 years, and I often like to grab some takeaway. This place doesn’t just serve food — it serves food with flavour. Every bite was fresh, tasty, and clearly made with care. You can tell they put thought into what they offer. I’ll definitely be coming back today!

A nice little store offering a nice variety of Indonesian dishes. We tried the chicken satay and pandan cake, both delicious.

Super nice people, gave me a euro discount and a bit of some cool vegetable for free just because it’s my first time in the Netherlands. Food also tasted phenomenal

I can see why this place has such high reviews. The food is amazing and tastes just like I imagine home cooked food from Indonesia would taste. It’s very fairly priced. It’s so flavorful and the options are solid. The servers (Harris and Cliff) are super friendly and happy to answer your questions on what each of the foods are, their flavor profile, and how spicy it is. Harris has a warm and welcoming smile on his face. Note that this is quick service but there are benches outside just down the block for you to eat your food. Ask for it warmed if you plan to eat it right away!

I only tried two Indonesian places during my 4 days visit in Amsterdam but I went to Proper Indonesian cafe twice since their foods were so good and the staff were super friendly. The only downside is there are no place to eat in this location, but plenty of park benches outside so we took our foods to go and enjoyed them outdoor. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic an Indonesian dishes.

I grew up having Malay / Indonesian Nasi Padang and miss it badly, this was spot on. Best Indonesian food I’ve had in Europe!

taste is good portion favorable but throw that whole container with 80% rice full so I can do it a bit too bad for the rest top

I need to return to Amsterdam just to eat here again! This restaurant should be marked as a main attraction in Amsterdam. Every dish is fresh, fragrant, and flavoursome- you can taste every ingredient. There's loads of variety, it's authentic mouthwatering food and the portions are very generous! The staff are incredibly warm, helpful and kind- the server translated the whole menu for me because I can't read Dutch. 10/10 doesn't do it justice, I can't wait to return!!

Very tasty Indonesian food. Spicy beef and saffron rice with eggplant is amazing.

This is indeed “clean Indofood”. Delicious food. It all looks beautiful. The flavors are delicious, there is a lot of choice (also for vegetarians) and the portions are enormous. It was my first time and I will definitely go again.

Best Indonesian takeout in Amsterdam by far. Super fair prices and everything is just incredibly delicious.

One of the best in town. I’m half Indonesian. The food taste like its been made by my Indonesian grandmother, so so good and delicious!👌👌👌👌👌

Excellent portions and friendly service, a great taste of Indo cuisine

Everything about Proper Indofood is amazing

The best food I ever eat in my entire life

The most delicious Indonesian food I have ever tasted. The tempeh is crisp, the aubergine is soft and flavourful, the spekkoek flavours are strong and the cake is soft. The green spicy beans are also a favourite. We went to flavour town and back and would love to return. Or maybe even live in the little food display to soak it all up. Well done!

Tasty! Good service! Definitely come back here more often

Great food! And such friendly service! You made my day

So amazingly delicious every time!

Very tasty and good portions. A lot of vegan options. I tried the spicy Tempeh, coconut Tofu and spicy Aubergine. Would probably not take the Aubergine again, but it still was totally worth it! Only the the big potions (menu) if you are really hungry, they put a lot into it!

It was the first time I had food here and it was delicious. I will definitely come back

Fantastic😍 we stayed at an Air Bnb nearby and grabbed something here one evening. This was the best meal we EVER had. Incredibly delicious.

Just like the name, it really is proper indonesian food.. taste, portion, price everything's perfect, worth the hype..

Really a great experience of indonesian food in Amsterdam, we were delighted it was delicious !! Thanks

Absolutely fantastic and super authentic! The food always gives you an Indonesian feeling of home 🥰 And the service is also very good: Dina was really nice and her colleagues were all really nice too! And the portions are actually very generous 😋 We tried: - Rendang (10/10) - Sweet Beef (10/10) - Lemongrass Chicken (10/10) - Spicy Tempeh (10/10) - Spicy green beans (10/10) - Sate (9/10) - Lemper (10/10) - Nasi Goreng -Bami Goreng

What a wonderful thing to have nearby! This business lives up to its name; very tasty, not dry, well varied and I just can't stop eating... top ten!! Oh and you shouldn't miss the bacon biscuit either.

Great Indonesian food with very generous portion sizes! My favorite in Amsterdam ❤️

Very good food! Good portions and good price. Very nice staff who talk about the food. Can recommend

Generous portions. Tasty, fresh food. Very friendly, welcoming service. Relatively short 10 minute wait given how popular they are (faster if you don't need your food warmed up). I can absolutely see why they're one of the best takeout restaurants in Amsterdam!

Very tasty indo food with generous portions and excellent service!

Delicious food to take away only. Very friendly staff 😄

their food is so good🤩 it tastes like home. why i only discover this on my last day in amsterdam!? i should get another pax earlier.

Proper Indofood lives up to its name. It's genuinely delicious Indonesian food. Some of the best I've ever had. My wife's Indonesian and to her it tastes just like home. The atmosphere is great and the staff were very helpful and friendly. Could not recommend this place more!

Been there with a friend that walked in front of it. At first I was not super convinced, but when I tried the food I was sold!!! Super good place, really good advice!!

The best Indonesian food in Amsterdam, no questions asked.

Simple design but food is very tasty for a very reasonable price.

Delicious food, both mild and sharp. Friendly people and they help you quickly. They can heat up the food for you if you want.

Fantastic neighbourhood spot for amazing take away from the friendly staff and owners of this local gem. Definitely recommend grabbing a couple of extra menu 1 plates for during the week when you are there.. you will want more asap.

Super tasty food and nice employees. I will definitely go back!!!

The 2 ladies were so nice and helpful, explaning and providing incredible service. We took each Menu 1 and it was a good portion.

Very tasty and well-prepared traditional and modern Indonesian food. And a very friendly service.

Absolutely phenomenal food. Delicious takeaway with quality vegetarian and meat options. Highly recommend for a quick bite.

Super super super amazing food, they pack your lunchbox literally to the brim and the food is so authentic and flavourful. Staff is nice too, highly recommend.

Heerlijke gerechten! Vriendelijk personeel! Echt een aanrader als je op zoek bent naar authentieke Indonesische smaken.

Really tasty Indonesian food! Unfortunately, it's just for takeaway, but still, really enjoyed the meal.

Heerlijk eten! Vriendelijk, snel en goed! Vanaf nu kom ik hier vaker langs :)

The best Indofood take-away! Whenever we visit Amsterdam this is our go-to take-away. The pleasant staff and exceptional home-cooked dishes at reasonable prices make this a cut above the rest. It can be a bit of a trek to get to depending on where you’re staying but it’s worth the walk. Hope to see you again soon! XXX

große Portionen, freundliche Bedienung und das Essen schmeckt auch sehr gut

The best Afhaal Indonesian food I have tried after living a year in Amsterdam! As an Indonesian, it is unbelievably hard to find in Amsterdam with its endless afhaal centrums (Ain’t that the truth).The taste and spices used definitely remind one of home ❤️. It was also quite affordable. We had the lunch box and for 9 euros. Top dishes: the woku kip and spicy Nasi Goreng The staff are friendly and helpful and will definitely pick the best dishes for you!

Tasted like I was having dinner at my Mom's house. It was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend!

Oh wow! This is fantastic, authentic Indonesian cuisine. The satay skewers were fresh and delicious, the beef (sweet), coconut rice, all the vegetables are just pure deliciousness. This alone is worth a trip to Amsterdam. Fantastic value and very good service. Thank you

Absolutely delicious dishes everytime!

On a recent weeklong trip across the Netherlands and Belgium, this may have been our absolute favorite meal. We were told we had to try Indonesian food in Amsterdam, and Proper Indofood blew us away!! We got takeout chicken, rice, and a variety of vegetables. We brought the food back to our hotel to eat in the dining area. After about 10 minutes, the three hotel receptionists came over to ask us where our food was from. Imagine that - the locals asking the tourists for dinner recommendations. Full of flavor and WAY underpriced for the quantity and quality. Cannot recommend enough. Thank you to the young woman who served us and the whole staff who prepared such delicious food.

This place lived up to its name. Was feeling homesick and craved Southeast Asian flavours and boy, did this place deliver. My only regret was not having more of their homemade sambal. The lady who manned the counter was super friendly too!!

Absolutely love this place, i went there to order food for the first time and the guy gave us an extra topping on the already massive portion (thank you kind man!). We had tempe, yellow chicken, tofu, brocolli, and the eggplant. And wow everything taste amazing, especially the eggplant, tempe, and tofu. I'm not vegan but would gladly eat their veggie toppings everyday.

Tasty Indonesian food with varying levels of spiciness. Was at least as good as other warungs across the city. The store looks great.

The food was absolutely delicious and the staff was very friendly. A great takeaway option.

One of my go to take out places, very good vegetarian options and friendly staff!

The best Indonesian food I have ever had. All options are very fresh, tasteful, and very well-cooked. The couple who cooks and serves the food is friendly. They love cooking and this is reflected in the food.

I was curious if the good reviews really represented the food and service. It was absolutely delicious!

We each had the menu with 1 rice, 1 veggie and 1 meat for 12€. The owner explained what everything was and filled the boxes very generously. Very friendly staff with good price, food was also great. Would definitely come again! PS: only take out here, but they do heat the food before you go

Friendly staff. Ordered menu 1. Had to wait for long time and eventually the food was cold from inside. Got a huge piece of ginger inside it…i had unpleasant experience.

As an Indonesian who has been disappointed time and time again by the westernized Indonesian food in this country, Proper Indofood did not disappoint. It wasn't expensive, and the food I got (red fried rice + eggplant balado + sweet chicken) was up to my standards. Unfortunately, the food my girlfriend got (dried tempeh + spicy green beans) were rather flavorless. The tempeh tasted like they used stroop (syrup) instead of sweet soy sauce (kecap manis). Nevertheless, I will be coming back and I hope they keep going strong. They're putting shame on other Indo restaurants that thinks flavor isn't necessary.

Echt super lekker eten , elke keer tevreden als ik hier eten!

Fully support giving this place 5 stars. The food was amazing, the cost was reasonable, and the staff was super helpful. Highly recommend—even worth the metro ride from centraal!

Ik schrijf niet vaak reviews, maar zij zijn absoluut de moeite waard. Authentiek, heerlijk, vers. Onlangs ook voor een feestje besteld voor 50 personen en de gasten vonden het om te smullen!!

Delicious Indonesian food, a nice variety of dishes all with well balanced flavors. I would definitely come again soon.

This food was so good I got angry at myself for finishing it too soon.

Delicious, cost-conscious food made and sold by nice people! You can choose noodles or 3 different kinds of rice as a base. Then 1-2 of several veggies, then a meat. They were so kind to hear it up for me and make it easy to eat when I got back to my hotel room!
