Spanjer en van Twist in Grachtengordel-West

Thank you Gabriel for the amazing service. My favorite 19 year old. CHI CHI CHI LE LE LE VIVA CHILE!

Nice for a slow beer next to the canal

I ate the costillar, which was nice. The waiters were very nice. However, we order dessert and had to cancel it after 30minutes without the desserts turning up.

A little taste of Chile in Amsterdam! We saw it and didn't hesitate to go in. The food is delicious and the prices are very reasonable for Amsterdam. Highly recommended!

Delicious food, the chicken wrap was bursting with flavor. Honestly, with their prime location, they could serve terrible food and still have customers, but they went the extra mile to make excellent food. 10 out of 10. The location, sitting right across from the canal, is unbeatable.

Excellent service, waiters who speak Spanish, and authentic Chilean dessert!

As a Chilean being away from home, the food was amazing. The service outstanding, and what made it a hit, the owners are Chilean and the dishes are made with love. You'll find there good hearty meals.

I can't say anything about the food! But the service is ridiculous and they don't pay attention to anything except when you ask for the menu, then they run their legs off. At least, that's their way of doing it. There is hardly any service, so you won't see me back!

Customers are not welcome, no menus nor interest in attending/taking note, we spend here 30 minutes waiting for absolutely nothing, horrible experience, do not go here.

Sitting by the water was great. The drink not so for such price! I guess the bartender does not know the right proportions for a Campari spritz?

We wanted to enjoy a quiet coffee break, and we found this lovely place with tables right in front of the canal! Such a peaceful and pleasant spot, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the view. I especially recommend the fresh mint tea, it was absolutely delicious! 🍵 Definitely worth a visit if you’re looking for a calm and charming place to take a break.

The service is a joke, it takes hours, they don't speak Dutch, and you pay absurd prices. The location is nice, but that's about all there is to say.

Just had a drink on a sweltering Friday afternoon on the bench outside the window. Great atmosphere, generous glasses of beer!

Terrible service and awful manager

Great place for a hearty snack of Chilean specialties. We had the churrasco hamburger, and it was truly delicious. Excellent beer. Friendly and welcoming service.

A good place to relax, have a beer and chat by the canal.

The best thing about Chilean food is that they sell it! The completos are really good. Highly recommended, guys! Go!

Real chilean cuisine Great service Beautiful place Go and enjoy!

Very slow and confused staff. But we got a discount for waiting so long.

Pisco sour is the best I tasted! Empanada & pebre delicious! Atmosphere Cool!!! Highly recomended

good food pretty view nice waitress

EMILY !!! We have been travelling Europe for several weeks. I have to say she is amazing. She is an asset to the restaurant . The best customer service we have received this entire trip. She is bubbly, friendly gave great recommendations. We love EMILY !!

A true hidden gem! Beautiful location by the canals, peaceful atmosphere, delicious coffee, and friendly staff. The perfect place to relax in Amsterdam. Highly recommended! ❤️

Nice spot for a drink! Especially if you get a seat by the canal!

We were immediately welcomed even though it was 9pm. The wait staff was very attentive and the food was amazing!

A nice spot for a cocktail break while sightseeing, although some tables were slightly tilted and made the glasses feel a bit unsafe.

It's impossible to work that slowly in the service industry.

Great view and beers but awful seating. The chairs so uncomfortable.

Tasty applepie with ice cream. Crunchy yet creamy apple.

Missing Chile so much that when I saw the flag, we couldn't resist stopping by. Best decision ever! The cake was delicious, and don't even get me started on the earthquakes, you crazy people!

We were there for lunch. The sandwiches were a bit mediocre. Not well-seasoned. A missed opportunity.

The drinks were wonderful! I loved the empanada.

We stumbled upon it completely by chance, seeing the Chilean flag outside. My friend ordered a completo because he was missing home, and while he said it tasted more like chorizo, it was incredibly well done. Everyone who served us was Latino, they all spoke Spanish, they treated us wonderfully, and there was a line to get a table outside—it was that popular. We'll have to go back 🙂‍↔️

A slice of Chilean paradise in Amsterdam, complete with a beautiful flag! Highly recommended!

Excellent place to sit and enjoy the view by the canal. A variety of dishes and sandwiches, and a very good pisco sour. Highly recommended.

Great place to sit on the canal with a beer and watch the world go by!

The food was delicious, you get very good hospitality, a very nice person.

Good food and great staff, but boy will you feel the price.

Excellent service, delicious food! Amazing atmosphere and views… The staff are really friendly!

Waiting 45 minutes for a waiter just to order a drink is not acceptable.

the best michelada I've tried, right by the canal! the place is lovely and the service is wonderful, the red hair waitress was super nice and helpful which was very much appreciated as it is my first time in Amsterdam

Super nice place to have a nice meal or drinks!

Take care for spoon and fork and knife. When this is done, it will be fantastic. Next time I’ll try the Chilean bitterballen.

Excellent service and atmosphere. The food was delicious too. It's located in a beautiful spot. I highly recommend it.

Chilean food and chilean vibes! Amazing pastel de Choclo served with a Chilean salad that taste like home. The staff was super friendly, most of them chilean and/or Spanish speakers to make you feel like in Chile. Had the opportunity to meet the owner that was enjoying at one of the tables. Wouod definitely recommend to try the other chilean dishes that are unique and tasty.

The staff were very welcoming, and the food was delicious, with homemade products. It was a real treat, especially with the view of the canal. I highly recommend this little restaurant.

Food was great but the waiter a young man was extremely arrogant. I was being nice and friendly and I am not a tourist just a local. Apparently he had seen too many tourists or whatever. I won’t go here again. A shame because as I said the food was pretty ok.

Good location with good venue and ambiance but disappointing experience. Service was bad in general, we were the only table ordering food and it took them +30’ to serve. The burger wasn’t that good, the Angus meat didn’t taste like the ones I had before. + 10€ each bottle of water but dirty bathrooms, feels a bit off.

The staff are of no help at all and shirk their responsibilities. They don’t apply the saying ‘the customer is always right’, even if it is true

I have not seen the inside of the restaurant. Me and my wife were seated outside very close to the canal. While this table for two was small and the seating area very small, the location is a bit to the side and therefore calmer and more private. It was nice to see many boats pass by on the canal while we were eating. The food was ok and the pricing in line with the expected.

The corn cake was delicious. The Pisco Sour was a must-try! Excellent service. I'll definitely be back!

Great terrace to enjoy a drink in a sunny evening

Great food and ambiance and service.

There was a gum in the aperol spritz I ordered, glued on the straw. When I noticed and alerted the staff, they were indifferent to the situation and didn't show any reaction and solution to the problem. Unprofessional staff that reuses plastic straws, highly unhygenic.

Excellent Chilean spot with a varied menu. The corn pie was exquisite. The atmosphere was very pleasant, and everyone was attentive and friendly. I loved the place. I highly recommend it! I will definitely return. Thank you…

The best Chilean food you could find in this country! Excellent service and a very welcoming atmosphere 100/10 ❤️

Avoid … although the apple pie was warm .. it came 30mins before the coffee .. which although we ordered 2 .. we only got one and the other after asking three times never arrived .. but yeah was still on the bill. Hopeless ..

We liked the Chilean food, especially the chorrillada.

Absolutely obsessed with the food here.Totally recommend it! Very nice place as well.

One of the best restaurants in Amsterdam for sure, the food and the atmosphere was amazing

Comfortable chairs, beautiful on the water, atmospheric

Last Sunday we tried the pastel de choclo and it was very good—we really enjoyed it. Unfortunately, the pisco sour was the worst I’ve had in my life. It tasted like pisco mixed with water and was basically undrinkable. When I asked for more lemon, the waitress said they didn’t have any, so I ended up ordering a Sprite just to fix it and make it a piscola blanca. As a Chilean living here for a decade and decided to try this place for the first time, this was very disappointing.

Just like at home c: We ate: Casserole, Italian-style grilled meat, and a full meal. For dessert, we had "Calzones Rotos" (a type of fried pastry). Well, what can I say? The casserole and the grilled meat were excellent, and the full meal was very similar to what you'd find in Europe—delicious! 😛

There's a very nice Spanish waitress, specifically from Valladolid!

Absolutely wonderful! To think I could find a place from my homeland so far from Chile. And to hear the story from the host himself... It was a delightful experience.

I was walking through the streets of Amsterdam and I came across the Chilean flag. I highly recommend it! I ordered an Italian-style churrasco and eating it made me feel like I was in Chile. The meat was exquisite! Come visit! 🇨🇱🫶🏻 And of course, a pisco sour!

I ate a couple of delicious Chilean completos while I waited to go into the Anne Frank House Museum. Highly recommended by a Chilean traveler in Amsterdam.

A great experience, with delicious Chilean food and drinks. Served by the owner, who is very friendly. Highly recommended for a great meal and a good time. 🇨🇱🇨🇱

As a Chilean living in the Netherlands, finding this bar felt like discovering a little piece of home 🇨🇱. The atmosphere is absolutely incredible warm, lively, and full of that familiar energy that makes you feel instantly welcome. From the music to the vibe, everything brought back memories of being back in Chile. It’s more than just a bar, it’s a place where you can truly feel at home, even when you’re far away. Highly recommended for anyone looking for great ambiance and genuine hospitality regardless where you come from. Viva Chile ctm 🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱

They're the best, the best Chilean food, and the best service. Try the completo... Long live Chile! 🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱!!!

The empanada had no flavor of pine nut filling. I don't recommend this place; I expected better Chilean food. 👎🏼 "Not worth the price."

Please visit, cozy and nice people.

Delicious food, kind and warm staff, everything makes you feel at home 🇨🇱

The food is very similar to Chilean cuisine, with an extra touch of creativity. The michelada had ice, but it still tasted good. The prices are a bit high, but it's worth it. 9/10 🇨🇱🇨🇱

Great Chilean food! Excellent atmosphere and impeccable service.

On a cold day, a warm, cosy and welcoming atmosphere heightened by the vibrant, amusing reception by a young lady greeter; that followed by excellent service by the handsome and charming Colombian waiter. And the food? Also outstanding: a pastel de choclo; costillar - delectable barbecue pork ribs, Chilean style, and a scrumptious dessert. Oh, and all started with traditional pisco sours. A memorable visit and highly recommended. Daniel & Francesco (visiting Amsterdam from Payrac, Lot, France).

Warm welcome! Typical cuisine with vegetarian options. The vegetarian Chilean dish is very good. Calm atmosphere, not touristy, a very good little restaurant!

Absolutely top in terms of taste, service and quantity

The corn cake was delicious, I felt like I was in Chile... Highly recommended.

The food wasn’t bad but the flavor is nothing Chilean.

Enjoy a delicious cappuccino on the terrace. Just as welcome as a meal.

Lovely place and beautiful people 😊🌷

This is a hidden gem in Amsterdam. The food and service are both excellent. We sat at a table upstairs right next to the open window with canal views. We made reservations, but there seemed to be tables if we had just walked in.

The beer is delicious. The food is okay, too. But the atmosphere is great. You can sit right by the canal.

We had a lovely meal here outside in the sunshine. The staff were very attentive and happy to chat. Lunch was excellent and very tasty! Everything was perfect here, highly recommended!

My husband and I have visited Spanjer en van Twist in the past. So we decided we'd like to go again. We made an online reservation from their website. We got an email saying they had received it and that we were would receive another email to confirmation the reservation. Which we never received. So we decided to show up a half hour ahead of our planned reservation time. We of course wanted to sit outside but we're placed inside. When we asked how long the wait was for outside we were told over an hour. But as we sat inside we watched people get seated outside. Rather frustrating. Service was slow. Servers were friendly. Food was fair. Probably won't be back again.

Great food. We were there for Chilean National Holiday "el 18" and they had a great menu!

Menu looked great and terrace very pleasant but we ended up leaving after 20 mins of being completely ignored by the staff - and we weren’t the only ones

Excellent Chilean restaurant in Amsterdam. With a very varied menu. Excellent service.

We were a group of 16 and had some local beers. It was super good, and we also found a fantastic waiter from Seville who gave us excellent service and recommended some top-notch places.

Great place, exellent food, amazing vibe

If you want to try authentic Chilean Empanadas this is the place to come in Amsterdam, great coffee as well

Wonderful little Chilean restaurant right on a quaint canal near the Ann Frank house. Upstairs windows were great for viewing people and passing boats

The best plan in Amsterdam during the summer! Magical location, super friendly service, consistently high-quality food, and reasonable prices.

We had a fish dish and a beef dish, and both were delicious, as were the cocktails.

We went one day and returned the next to try more things. All the servers were lovely, but Álvaro was 100% recommended several dishes, such as ribs, empanada, and scrambled potatoes with egg and meat sauce, and they were all 10/10. We finished with 10/10 coffees and a delicious cheesecake. The michelada was amazing!

Sat and had drinks by the canal. Good quick service and nice location

A relaxed spot with a waterfront view in bustling Amsterdam. The Chilean specialties are delicious, and the Pisco Sour is fantastic ☺️
