Taqueria Local Dealer Food Inc in Dapperbuurt

Delicious food, great drinks, very kind and attentive staff!

Hear me out. Premium tapas. The food, service, and atmosphere are 5 star! The food by far deserves the most applause. The flavor and presentation were amazing! I can’t say that enough, the flavor was amazing and worth the experience. The portion sizes were small so we did not leave feeling satiated but definitely enjoyed the flavors. I don’t generally associate Mexican cuisine with price but, this is a bias view on my part and comes from ignorance. You go to Local Dealer to experience an elevated cuisine that is a flavor bomb—not to enjoy the fast service and low price of Mrs. Carlota’s family run taco stand on the corner. Great place overall but not for those looking for cheap eats.

the food was amazing, the service kind, the price was absolutely reasonable and we had a very awesome dinner there. we even got a candle and birthday shots because i put a note in the reservation that said that we were a birthday party. thank you so much!

As the name implies, this place is addictive. The service was great - attentive, smiling and down to earth. Had a Local Negroni, it was well balanced and the mezcal made it deliciously Smoky. We ordered dishes to share, baby octopus, carnitas - which were both good but The ceviche Maracuyá - This was INSANELY GOOD! So well balanced, not too acidic and the passion fruit and fried onions took it to another level. They were not shy with the fish which I love. Although I understand the choice of tables and stools, conceptually and aesthetically, I am always a sucker for a chair that sits well - with back and arms rest. Just makes me stay longer and obviously less hunch-backed. However, I still think of the ceviche and the smoky Negroni - this dealer is worth a visit.

Great restaurant! Great atmosphere and lovely staff. The meal was excellent (offers halal meat).

The vibe is nice but the food is overpriced for the quantity / quality. €15 euro for one OK taco with 4 shrimps isn’t worth it in my opinion.

Great people and service, food was unique and authentic compared to local brands. Recommend getting there for tacos than other places.

Pretty good spot to get some food and drinks in the city. Dishes were smaller than the price point implied though. Service was kind and did their job well. Can recommend! But be prepared for serving size to be on the small side.

Best tacos ever and amazing service also!

Nice place, great service and great food. I have to give 3 stars just because I find I bit crazy have the tasting menu for 40pp and go home hungry with a final bill of almost 150€, the dishes are literally two bites. Too expensive for what it offers, would not recommend

Very nice and not pricey at all to be an Amsterdam kinda hip place! Will be back

Delicious food! Highly recommended!

Awesome Staff, Awesome Food, Awesome place!

Great food and service so friendly.

It was a beautiful day and a perfect moment for a Michelada on the terrace. It took me right back to a good time I had in Mexico two years ago. That makes you hungry, so I ordered two borrego tacos – they were fine, Mexican size so small. I paid a total of €25 (it was supposed to be €22, but there was no change). The Michelada was on the menu for €4.50, but I had to pay €10.50 for it (a mistake according to the waiter). All in all quite a lot of money. It may be a bit silly to compare it with the prices in Mexico, but there it would cost a maximum of €7 together - and that is my immediate objection. Here on Dapperplein you pay fine dining prices for a simple street food snack with a drink. I won't be going back there again... it's a shame.

Always delicious food & cozy vibes.

Really tasty starters, tacos 🌮 and quesadillas with a nice vibe! One of our favourites for Mexican and tacos!

Everything is just spot on. Delicious food, super friendly staff and a really cool spot. Would absolutely recommend it to anyone

I made a reservation online because of the delicious menu, but when I arrived there was a completely different menu. It's a shame for me because I have a nut allergy and almost every dish on the menu had nuts in it, some of which you couldn't leave out. You should keep the menu up to date online as people also come for the dishes. There was nothing with chicken on site but several dishes with the same birria beef. The prices are very very high. 15€ for a tostada… and >6€ for a beer. Cocktails, especially the non-alcoholic ones, are also more expensive than in the center. I wouldn't go there anymore.

Super cozy place...we sat outside baking under the heat sources. Good knowledge, nice explanation about the drinks! We'll be back 🙃👍

The food was absolutely delicious! The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and created a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Definitely a place worth visiting – I’ll absolutely be coming back!

I was yesterday there and the Personal was super and the Churros too🤗 thankyou

Fresh, youthful and chill. This was the perfect place for a quick bite, a nice chat with staff and some wonderful coctails. If we didn't have reservations elsewhere, we would definitely order more. 🌱

If you like Mexican food, definitely visit it. Food was tasty but not wow for me personally! Nice to try once but not necessarily worth repeating. (For me) Our Mocktails were delicious! My son loves churros, unfortunately these were just the ones you buy from the supermarket and throw in the air fryer, only for a ridiculously high price. This was very disappointing Staff is really super friendly and helpful. Otherwise a nice tent

Great food and drinks super friendly people 👌😎

The cocktails are AMAZING. Our server today was the kindest ever (and a Spiderman fan, huge +) amazing food. Will keep coming.

Wow, pequeño restaurante estupendo, no de lujo pero un ambiente frío con un excelente servicio , absolutamente me encantó el taco’s tenía el cordero, pollo y camarones , lo mejor que he probado , los cócteles estaban en punto de muy fuerte . El personal era atento y amable, no le pareció tan caro como los restaurantes centrales, deffo volveremos!

Everything about this place is amazing! Food is reasonably priced and the service was FANTASTIC! This was the first restaurant I visited in Amsterdam, and the last as I made sure to go visit again before leaving. Such a wonderful experience and wonderful people! Thank you Local Dealer!

Incredible food and super cozy place, as well as excellent service. Each dish had a unique flavor and the cocktails were super delicious!!! Super recommended without a doubt.

Excellent food, friendly staff, very noisy inside.

Great taco!! You can tell that the stews are made with care! The sauce is spicy but with a lot of flavor. We fell in love with the birria and the carnitas, incredible!!

My son and I had a great evening. Nice service and delicious food

Food, staff and atmosphere 10/10, simply amazing!

Fantastic food, the best tacos I've had in the Netherlands and super vibey atmosphere.

Amazing experience , more than recomendable , is a must!!

🔵🔵🔵🔵⚪️⚪️ A place steeped in 90’s Florida The server couldn't have been nicer. Tacos are simple and effective. The little churros for dessert are all delicious hot!

The people were really nice and welcoming. The food was amazeballs, if I could have one last meal it would be this food!!! I recommend it 100%. You havent until you ate here!!!!!

All delicious fresh dishes to share, very well prepared with tasty herbs and sauces. Tables were very cozy. Good cocktails, also the non-alcoholic ones are very tasty. The restaurant is also attractively decorated.

80's Miami vibes with the most banging Mexican food, ceviche was mad as were all the tacos and quesadillas we got. Cali is a proper legend the food and drink and vibes are top - cannot recommend enough

Cute cozy place I like the tacos, however the meal was very very small I took the birria tacos, in the menu it was written that it comes as a set of 3, but only 2 very very tiny tacos came. It was delicious however, not enough to satisfy anyone, especially not for a pretty hefty price for 2 small tacos.

Excellent food, nice and cozy venue and super friendly staff.

Taco tuesday is 4€ for a single small taco, we thought it could be better. Good draft budweiser beer. A bit expensive, not the best quality&price relationship. Very good service and nice place

Enjoyed the ambiance, delicious food, great cocktails and friendly service, would recommend!

Fantastic food, with real explosions of flavour. Ceviche was great! Nice service, nice guy. This is the place to be for Mexican food!

Super tasty food and great service!

Unfortunately not a strong restaurant. The staff was a plus: very friendly, pleasant and helpful. We didn't have super high expectations beforehand, but the most striking thing was that the price level makes you think that they are affordable main courses, while in reality they were tapas appetizers or starters. The dim lighting sometimes made it unclear what was actually in the tacos, which were a bit limp, soggy and too salty. After spending 90 euros (2 people), we walked to the KFC across the street because we were still hungry :-(

Magnifico! It was everything we hoped for and more. You will be warmly welcomed by the staff at this attractive spot. The cocktails were sublime. (Do's Margherita, Pisco Sour and Local Negroni are all recommended, the rest will probably be great too.) The food was really really fantastic! (totopos, birria tacos and churros) We ate our fill and actually wanted to order more just for the taste. The friendly hostess recommended that we perhaps come back instead of eating sick food. Well, we certainly will! For everyone who loves Mexican flavors and intense good vibes; go and enjoy.

Although the service and atmosphere was very nice, when we got home from our meal we were being sick. As we’ve both woken up feeling better I can’t imagine it was anything other than the food. We had chicken tacos and lamb tacos and spent around €60 in total. Please check the quality of the ingredients for the safety of other customers.

I LOVE this place, it’s honestly one of my favorites in Amsterdam for a great value meal and great cocktails. The service is always super friendly and contributes to the overall good vibes of the place. Our group had a few different dietary restrictions (one pescatarian, one gluten free, one with an avocado intolerance) and they did everything in their power to accommodate that. Do try the chorizo and shrimp tacos, they are EPIC

Overall a great experience. The cocktails were great, and food was lovely.

Particularly good Mexican. Normally I'm not a fan of taco chips but this version was next level. Also mini pancakes “al pastor” with chicken, excellent! Very extensive drinks menu, cocktails and mezcal for example.

Gentilezza ma soprattutto ottimo cibo ! consiglio di provare ogni piatto e il loro spice margarita . bell' esperienza culinaria.

Had super tasty cocktails, delicious food and friendly service, highly recommended if you like Mexican food!

Really great food, very authentic. The spicy margarita and ceviche is a must when going here!

Delicious food, real Mexican as it should be. Food arrived quickly. Had a really great evening!

Amazing food and vibes 🥰 and the best staff and owners ❤️

Delicious food, kind and polite service, fun atmosphere! Will definitively be back again. The highlight were the chorizo tacos and the brunch menu :)

FOOD POISONING from this place. Food is not good. Very poor service, it took 2 hours to get tacos that made people in the party sick. Do not go here. Edit: over a week later, the owner has started harassing me on social media to tell me my experience didn’t happen and to take down / change this review. Sketchy and unprofessional. Life tip for Kali - take ownership of your issues and problems then fix them so other customers don’t get food poisoning instead of denying it. If I could remove more stars for harassment I would.

Good tacos and service but watery cocktails and frozen tuna

Every dish we ordered was bang on. Every single thing was delicious. We had tacos, chilaquiles, tostada, cheesecake, churros, and a few other things and everything was amazing. The wine recommendation was also quite good. All that amazing food is paired with great service. The hosts are warm, friendly, and welcoming. Highly recommend this place.

Amazing experience, the food is really delicious, with loooots of fresh veggies, herbs, all is house made. We enjoyed all that we orders : tropical cevice, mushrooms quesadilla, fish tacos, pork tacos, Dulce de leche cheesecake. With my husband and my son we strongly recommend!!! And the service is adorable

Difficult to get higher quality food elsewhere in the city 💯

I had a lovely night at Local Dealer! Food was great, tasty and with so many interesting combinations of flavors. The atmosphere is great, fun, colorful and - at least on a Tue night - quite relaxed. Staff friendly and welcoming. Overall super 5*! I'd love to come back :) oh and great spicy margaritas!!!

Absolutely loved the place! The food was so amazing! The waitress was so sweet and fun to be around!

The food was amazing!! Special love for the burrito and the dulce de leche cheesecake which were both insanely good! It was very filling I highly recommend

11/10 experience. we tried an insane brunch menu - the burgos rancheros were our favourite. beautiful and aesthetic restaurant. the owners are gems, super kind and welcoming. loved the pretty drinks and ended our brunch date with the best sweet treats (you can’t miss out on the cheese cake with dulce de leche and churros!!)

Excellent, vibrant flavours. Try the classic ceviche at your first visit, get hooked, then return to try the other ceviches. The chilaquiles with birria are always a treat too. Great service.

Great little place for yummy Mexican food and cocktails. Our favourites were the esquites, classic cevice, carnitas and birria tacos 🤤

Wow!!! We are super impressed!! What a lovely place, amazing food for great price. For sure one of the best Mexican places in Amsterdam. Don't doubt, go here, you will love it!!!

I had the best Mexican experience here! I was struggling to find a good place where to eat real Mexican food and this definitely stole my heart. Everything was super tasty, well done and nice mis en plats and the people and the vibe you have there is really unique, it really makes you feel in Mexico. Highly recommended if you’re looking for real Mexican food!

Extremely great tacos and friendly service. Not super cheap but that's just Amsterdam -- these tacos are well worth the cost!!

Everything was top! Food, drinks, ambience and service. Highly recommend.

What an experience this is! Food is phenomenally good! The flavors are great and you can see that the dishes are prepared with a lot of love and passion. Every time we are surprised by the taste explosion and the nice atmosphere!

we ordered spicy margaritas, chilaquiles, fried chicken and the birria and chicken tacos. Great flavours feels like a hidden gem as its out of the city. We had a good chat with the owner but we did think it was a little bit expensive especially the birria chilaquiles were €16 for quite a small plate…

Being from the US and having lived in the Bay Area the tacos are comparable to any taco back in the US. Of course traveling in Europe I never expect any cuisine to be the same that I’m used to (that’s absurd). These were very satisfying and I definitely recommend not only for the food but the atmosphere, friendly helpful service and drinks! 5 weeks and Europe and Local Dealer was the ONLY place I received Tajin with a spicy marg!

Simply the best tacos in Amsterdam! You gotta try mezcal margaritas

Some of the best Latin food I’ve had in a very long time!b the cocktail we’re not only beautiful but delicious as well. The cocktail menu is unique as well

Loved the atmosphere, hospitality and food! Definitely recommend it 👍🏼

Excellent food and outstanding service. Highly recommend.

I had the barbacoa tacos, carnitas tacos, birria tacos, and totopos. The totopos were burned, the birria and carnitas were dry and flavorless. The barbacoa tacos were aggressively bitter and mushy. Just no. I am from California so I feel I have some taco experience. I went to the highest rated place I could find. Just no.

The food was amazing and the wait time was minimal, the staff was very nice and answered all of our questions. But be aware, the food was a bit spicy😅

Amazing food with lovely service!

We keep coming here and the food never disappoints. 5/5 everytime. They are also very friendly here.

Fantastic! Best tacos in Amsterdam. Can't wait to return.

Gran servicio, deliciosa comida y un ambiente encantador. Animado y acogedor. La pareja que dirige este lugar nos hizo sentir muy bienvenidos y se esforzaron mucho para garantizar que nuestra comida estaba libre de nueces. Lo recomiendo encarecidamente. Una de las mejores comidas que tuvimos en Amsterdam.

Amazing tacos, cocktails and great vibes. We’ve been to this place so many times and every time surprised by the quality and flavors.

Tasty tacos, very good service. I believe also drinks are good but that we check next time 😉

Great place to enjoy authentic food. It's a bit pricy but good. The waitress was super kind. Music could be for my taste a bit louder.

A vibrant and flavorful experience! We enjoyed delicious tacos and cocktails, all served with exceptionally friendly service.

A lovely spot, with great food and really good cocktails. Attentive staff who made me feel really welcome. Can really reccomend, great vegetarian options!

Top top and even top! Owners hats off! Food hats off! Service hats off! Im a real foodie and this was good food! Until next time and thanks for the hospitality 🫡🫶

Had an amazing dinner here! Tried something from the entrees, ceviche and tacos - everything was delicious. The favourites were the pork belly entree and the squash taco. Finish the meal off with churros and you'll leave a happy person.

Small place, with stools that are uncomfortable, mignon tables, but the food makes up for all the inconvenience. Yes, because dining in this place was a culinary journey. Everything is made homemade: from nachos to guacamole, from meat to tacos. Known on Instagram, to try something new, different. Let's take 3 types of tacos with 3 different types of meat. The result is always the same excellent product, balanced in flavor, meat that melts in your mouth. The sweet potato and chorizo ​​tacos will transport you to another dimension of taste. I highly recommend it, you won't be disappointed.

Very very good ! I recommend ! Be careful if you are very hungry, remember to take extra snacks 😝

Love the food, place and people!

Had a delicious meal with my neighbors, I can finally confirm how delicious the food is (sorry guys, took me 3 years 😝). Came as a bachelor party group and enjoyed the service & food together 🥳

Very nice and chill atmosphere. The interior is so cute and so pastel! The foods are good too and enough to be shared with 2-3 people. Cocktail is good, I went with Mezcal Spritz.

Delicious food and drinks at this taqueria. Tasted tacos fish, al pastor, birria and carne assada. Each one was very tasty. The fillings were well seasoned and the meat had a melt in your mouth texture. Chilaquiles were also great. Good portions for sharing. The service was good, orders arrived quickly and the staff was nice.

What delicious food and friendly service. Yum yum!! The tastiest tacos I have eaten so far, a real explosion of flavor and great that they have many halal options. Completely satisfied :)

We had a quick lunch here, and loved everything. The food was fresh, compositions were delicious and we the staff was super kind 👌 we will be back to try more dishes :) ask for Amarillo sauce if you like something spicy!
