Rancho Steakhouse in De Weteringschans

The food was delicious, the meat was superb. Wonderfully tender. Plenty of selection and friendly staff. Highly recommended!

Good quality Argentine cuisine and a very characteristic atmosphere

English version: We chose this restaurant based on a recommendation from our hotel. Unfortunately, the 20% discount advertised on the menu was not fully applied, and our meal was charged at full price. The staff told us that service was not included, encouraging us to leave a tip. Furthermore, each side dish must be paid for separately. Overall, the experience was somewhat disappointing, and the place seems primarily aimed at tourists—a tourist trap, much like many venues in Amsterdam.

Good steak. Friendly waitress obliged with taking our photos. We were there on Wednesday, 2nd April 2025, 6 pm

Easily the best pizza I had in Amsterdam. Great portions as well. Not the Italian restaurant I was looking for, but my date and I were very happy to have found it. We did come back for a second night.

It wasn’t the best experience. I had a burger, which was actually pretty good, but the service left a lot to be desired. The first server we had was quite rude and seemed to be in a hurry, which made us uncomfortable. Thankfully, a younger staff member came over with a much better attitude, and from that point on, we only interacted with him. I wouldn`t say its a bad restaurant, but the first guy killed the mood

Beautiful place, very very professional service. The food is healthy and good.

This is a tourist trap. Over priced.

I'm argentinian, and I can not belive this place dares to call Argentinian restaurant. The meat bad, but that is not the worst. The offered bread, implying was complementary and was charged 5.5 euros 4 supermarket bellen. They charged sauces we not even ordered. Basically they increased the bill 10 percent in hidden fees. Do not recommend it at all my fault I knew was a tourist trap)

Unpleasant and rude service. Poor manners and poor attitude. Not recommended if you're looking for a good time in a friendly atmosphere. Three of the four waiters spoke to us rudely after closing the door because we were cold. Never close the door, you've been warned.

I was upset and angry with the service, they were unpolite and rude. Waiters please, if you don’t enjoy customer service just change. But don’t disturb our holidays. Thanks

Very good restaurant, we enjoyed ourselves :)

Had a delicious meal here...sangria was delicious as well....highly recommend..

The surf n turf fajitas were great

Meat was OK, not super good not super bad.

Great, the restaurant accepts us at 3 p.m. for the meal. The dishes are good but what a shame to have such an unpleasant waiter. We really feel like we're disturbing, we are a group of 8 and left with a bill of almost €300.....change jobs sir!

We had a lovely experience! They gave special treatment as it was my birthday. Very friendly and attentive staff. Delicious food. Good protions. Very happy.

Very good food, friendly staff, good and fast service!

If you want to eat excellent meat, you're in the right place. Especially the Ribeye and Tenderloin are great. Don't forget the chicken wings. Thank you, Rancho.

It was really cold in this restaurant but apparently people in Amsterdam like the restaurants cold The food was decent but not great not well seasoned. The servers were nice but they seemed very busy.

Fantastic food and service. Highly recommend.

Delicious meal with my family (5 people) and definitely worth repeating!

2 stars.. Simply because they are not at all friendly, deplorable service. Prices as in all restaurants in Amsterdam, it remains quite expensive... Gentlemen waiters, with a smile and a little hello is always better...

The meat was incredible, we ordered churrasco and loin accompanied with roast potatoes. Very cozy restaurant with very friendly service

Food was okay not good but okay. The waiter was a bit passive aggressive.

The best place to eat and drink

Rancho Leidseplein serves Argentine food, it is very well located in the neighborhood. It has a very spacious and comfortable living room and has a good interior temperature. We ordered a barbecue for two, some chicken fajitas and a hamburger. The attention was quite fast and the service took just enough time. As for the food, the barbecue was very good, the meat was just right, very well prepared and varied, plenty of potatoes and salad. If you eat a lot, it is a good option. The fajitas had a lot of vegetables, as well as chicken. They were very good. And my daughter, who is a light eater, loved the burger!! So 10/10 The dessert was a brownie with ice cream, the brownie was very cold and we asked them to reheat it, which they did without a problem! Good place to visit if you are visiting Amsterdam. Bill for 4 people.

We spent Christmas Eve here and had a fabulous dinner with dessert. The food was incredible, the staff were friendly and the atmosphere was fabulous. It was warm and cosy and had plenty of options for everyone. We didn’t feel rushed and had a wonderful evening. Thank you team!

The place with quite a few people consuming is a good sign of how delicious they offer. We ordered something for dinner and the service was fast despite the number of people there. We were satisfied

way too expensive price quality

Try the Fajita beef, it's super nice. Amazing food, would go again.

The quality of the meat was good, but the fries were bland and didn't fit in. Same with garnish served in a paper single use bowl. A bit hectic place but the meat as said was good

Good atmosphere, food and friendly staff.

The degree of burntness was shocking and the taste was so bitter that I was forced to waste a lot of food and expressed concern about the possible carcinogenic effects of this level of taste.

Food was nice but nobody talks English and it was super hard to communicate with them after we said we want to split the bill they didn’t understood us 3 times and after this he was asking “where is tip?” After we gave them 11%

So not paid for either the water or the wine, execrable waiter we just left

Our experience at this restaurant was highly disappointing. Despite the restaurant being completely empty, we had to wait five minutes just to receive a menu. To make matters worse, when we sat down, there was a coffee mug left on the table from a previous customer or staff member, and no one bothered to clear it. The table itself was sticky and clearly hadn’t been cleaned. The service went from bad to worse when the waiter, instead of addressing the issues professionally, was extremely rude and sarcastic. At one point, he even questioned my behavior, saying, "Is this how you act in a restaurant?" After that comment, we decided to leave. The lack of basic cleanliness and the disrespectful service made this an unacceptable dining experience. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone.

We loved our steak, cooked to perfection, just the right portion size. Fun atmosphere. Something different!

Entrecôte and pork ribs with barbecue sauce highly recommended. Tasty and well cooked meat. Friendly and attentive staff. We ate in the outdoor area and we were very comfortable. Reasonable price. They have the bathroom on the top floor.

We saw this grill from the place across the street and promised ourselves we'd go back the next day. It was a good choice, as the meat was of excellent quality. I found the wine, an "Altos del cóndor" Cabernet, a little expensive (€25) compared to the quality, but let's not forget that we are in Amsterdam. The side dishes and sauces are excellent.

Excellent meat, cooked well and of good quality. Well done

We had a very delicious meal here yesterday! A few staff members were in training, the manager kept a close eye on them and made sure everything went smoothly. The staff were very friendly and there was a nice atmosphere in the restaurant. The food was very tasty! Beforehand we had sandwiches with aioli and chicken wings. These were very tasty. As a main course we had the tenderloin and ribeye, which were very tender. The fries were also well cooked and the homemade sauces were very popular.

The starter was empanadas with meat, as main the 400g Rumsteak, it was perfectly grilled and matched with the potatoe with sour cream, delicious and excellent. Great Customer Service! If you’re sitting outside you will have a nice view.

This restaurant is amazing for having limoncello and a very tasteful pizza. You cannot combat this price anywhere else. Come here and enjoy

Our food was not as tasty as we expected, the burger we got looked like one from the freezer. The spareribs didn't really have a marinade, they were served with a little bit of loose sauce. One of the servers was not that friendly from the start. The man didn't even look at us and was only busy with the football match on his phone.

Good steak/meathouse. Can be recommanded. Good price value.

Particularly terrible service! Bad wine and food. I prefer not to expand further. Avoid!

Tender and delicious entrecôte, excellent cooking, simple but good accompaniment, pleasant welcome and well served, recommended

Great food (especially the Entrecote and the wine) and the servers were great to recommend places to visit An incredible place to eat !

Very positive experience. Despite the time (we arrived at 10pm), they let us sit down and eat calmly. The quality of the meat was excellent and the service was friendly. Recommended for all Italians who want to eat quality meat in Amsterdam

Great place to get some meat! Friendly staff, nice atmosphere and prices aren't too bad, we'd go back!

Excellent food and homely atmosphere.

Good price/quality ratio. Friendly service

Delicious steak! We regularly eat steak and this restaurant has good quality.

Really great food and service! Steak was cooked perfectly and the salmon was fresh and well seasoned!

The staff is very welcoming, the dishes are superb. As an accompaniment, I recommend the “Verduras”. As a starter, I had the chicken wings (3 will be more than enough) with a fantastic barbecue sauce!!! Even the most basic steaks are good. For the price, it's excellent. The only flaw was that the chicken wings were a little undercooked.

I had the pleasure of dining at Rancho Leidseplein and it was an unforgettable experience. The ambiance of the restaurant is cozy with a touch of rustic charm, making you feel right at home. The highlight for me was the steak - cooked to perfection with flavors that melt in your mouth. The service was impeccable; attentive without being intrusive. It's a fantastic spot for meat lovers with a menu that offers a great variety of choices. Whether it's a casual dinner or a special occasion, Rancho Leidseplein has quickly become my top pick for a hearty, satisfying meal.

There is a very nice team there including: Manuel food well made and an attractive restaurant there

Great steakhouse, lovely food right on Leidseplein. Really looked after us

We had a delicious meal here! The only disadvantage was that the chicken fillet was on the dry side, but the taste was good.

It was our last dinner in Amsterdam. It was a very nice place. The steak was also delicious. The chicken in the salad was a big piece.

Loved this place, brilliant choice of food , service is excellent and great friendly atmosphere

This was the second Rancho that we visited in two days, that speaks for itself. This Rancho was better in all categories, the first one being waiter politeness which was outstanding. Ambient represents the argentinian ranch atmosphere so there is no surprise there, other than it's clean. The food, the meat, the entrees and drinks were gorgeous. The meat especially, the plate we ordered contains several different beef cuts, grilled to perfection, succulent and savory. Very good gastronomic experience.

Great vibes , good menu of an authentic Argentinian grill. I'd say the meat quality wasn't great However, the chicken and chorizo were perfect. Staff needs to be more patient with families having kids around.

Really cool place, with fantastic meat

Great location next to Leidseplein, very traditional stakehouse branch in Amsterdam. I had a mix of ribs and churrasco de cuadril and a beer. It was good.

Very nice restaurant where the welcome is warm and the dishes very good.

We are in the center of Amsterdam in this Argentine steakhouse where the quality of the food is once again questionable...

Over the years, when we have passed through Amsterdam, we have always stopped at Rancho in Leidseplein, the place is beautiful, welcoming atmosphere and fast and friendly staff, the price varies depending on the choice, you can spend 20 euros per person, as well as 50 /60, the menu offers different options also depending on the wallet, in short... it is (almost) within everyone's reach🥰 not to mention that they have always made us sit down, even without a reservation, with the rooms being very crowded and even during holidays , where the amount of work doubles (almost triples)! One of the few places, which I recommend to all friends who book a trip to Amsterdam!

Delicious food, nice service. Quite pricey, order everything separately (fries, vegetables), touristy of course. Pleasant ambience.

Très belle présentation d'un plat pour 2 de la viande rouge de la viande blanche une saucisse du maïs des frites une salade un plat énorme à partager pour 2 pour 55 euros. Nous n'avons pas tout terminé. A conseiller .

Warm onthaal, goed eten en goed gevulde wijnglazen. Heerlijke plek.

Mangiato un misto grill di carne, manzo, agnello e maiale, quest'ultimo è l'unica cosa che mi ha deluso.

The staff was very unfriendly, I will surely never come here again.

Such a lovely restaurant, food is 10/10

It was really amazing. The meat was great and the sallat to. If you want to eat great in Amsterdam, you shouldnt miss this place. Absolutely amazing

Enjoyed the dinner and the staff were great.

Super eten en aardige bediening. Combischotel met grill op tafel is top en het geld waard

Niet te veel poespas, maar gewoon goed vlees!

The food was real nice . Price not so bad. We were visiting from Birmingham.

Buon ristorante messicano , piatti di buona qualità, unica critica l’impasto delle empanadas non era un granché, invece buone le fajitas e la carne.

Goede serive, aardig personeel en het eten was lekker. Zeker een aanrader

Смачно і не дорого. Чудове місце)

Great food, excellence service. I hesitated to go because Google maps said they closed at 22:00, but I took a change and they were were actually closing at 23:00. Always good to check.

Rustig restaurant, goede bediening en heerlijk eten.

Arrivés sans réservation dans un resto presque plein, le serveur à l'accueil nous a rapidement trouvé une place. Assis à l'écart, au chaud, avec un peu de musique, la table idéale pour nous. La serveuse était très gentille et de bons conseils. Un steak et une salade au saumon commandés, produits très frais, parfaitement cuits et assaisonnés. Nous nous sommes régalés et avons passé un très bon moment. Merci à vous !

Si vous aimez la viande c'est le bon endroit !! Un "menu" viande d'Argentine à 55 euros pour 2 avec steak, poulet,etc le tout grillé !! Excellent Et super service

This was the last dinner my wife and I had in Amsterdam, and it didn't disappoint. This was the best steak I had while there, and not the most expensive. The ribs were pretty tasty also. Great service.

It's what you would expect from a place that is in the tourist zone. They were packed that night so they messed up the orders a bit and the waiting time was longer than you'd expect it to be. Like I said, food was good but on busy days like that they should perhaps have more people serving the guests...

The steak special which is a 150gm rump steak with chips and salad is good value for money. Steak was cooked to perfection. Lovely music and ambience - especially inside. Good for dining alone, with a friend or groups. Plenty of seating inside. Some outdoor seating available. Toilet is upstairs via narrow winding stairs.

Very nice place to have dinner. Their meat's are on par and the sides are all good. Portion are not absurdly big neither are they small

Ho-hum beef resturant at leidseplein. Badly in need of a makeover.

Ideale per un pasto a base di carne veloce e senza grandi pretese. Buon burger, personale gentile e disponibile.

Great selection and quality steaks an ribs
