The Meets in Indische Buurt West

Wonderfull food. Very friendly service. Dishes I did now know about and are very tasty. Recommended!

Rarely have you had such a great meal, whether it was vegan or not. Very good taste and fine texture, crispy, creamy. Always just right. The service is very sweet and warm. Not really that fast, but also has something charming about it. The interior is also stylish and cozy. To top it off, there is also nice music. A really nice place!

Excellent food and cozy atmosphere! Highly recommended!

Absolutely amazing food. Everything is made with so much love. We tried the fried oyster mushrooms (soooo good), the melanzane, gnudi and the risotto, all super delicious! Staff is very friendly! I can't wait to go back to try the Brazilian stew.

This is a fantastic spot for a different twist on Italian Cuisine. The food is great, with flavors that I thought impossible to find here in the Netherlands. Great to see an Italian plant based business!

I like this place a lot! It has great atmosphere, very personal service and tasty vegetarian dishes.

We had a delicious meal here! We took the sharing menu, and every dish was absolutely delicious! Cozy restaurant, great service

Worth visiting vegan place. Very classic taste from not classic ingredients. Good wines.

Very nice place for a relaxed dinner. Good wines and delicious dishes.

Food is very tasty, with different and unusual flavors. The atmosphere is cozy, and the staff are very friendly and speak English. However, it is a little pricey for the quantity of food on the plate.

Although we are not vegeterian eaters we had a great time. Everything was great, we had all the dishes plus the amazing tiramisu. Totally recommented!

Incredible food and service! We were truly impressed with how tasty, delicious and beautifully presented everything was. Vegan dishes made with healthy ingredients combined perfectly. You could really feel the dedication and love.

Wonderful vegan food! We had tasting menu and we loved almost all dishes! My number one was parmigiana and my partner’s favorite was Cime di rapa! But really, almost everything was great!

The Service, The Food, The chill vibe. I love this place. I could eat here every week, because it taste so good and it's just a cozy little come as you are place. Must Try!

Happy cooking! We found this restaurant at the last minute for New Year's Eve on December 31st! We were very happy with the quality of the cuisine even if we didn't really appreciate their way of making “a plate with 4 mini dishes” or the “5 course option” normally served. Impossible to mix the options for the table!!! I don't know if this is the usual way of doing things or it was the exception for New Year's Eve but we didn't really like this way of doing things.

Wow what a surprise! Really delicious food. What special dishes and ingredients. Very tasty (finely) seasoned and different bites. RECOMMENDED!

What a treat! The chef’s tasting selection was extraordinary with each element on the plate carefully crafted. Each flavour and texture so perfectly balanced creating a perfect meal together. I loved the combination of warm dishes with the more refreshing ones. The perfect evening to end 2024 🎆 Thank you for the evening!

In a word: superb. I booked The Meets to celebrate my partner’s birthday and NYE, and the staff were more than accommodating of my last minute booking change. We ordered the sharing menu (plus drinks!) and the food exceeded our expectations. A true fine dining experience. The food was innovative, well balanced and all round delicious. There was a good range of dishes, each authentically reflecting a well-thought-out fusion menu. The Brazilian dish, which the staff proclaimed to be its signature, was by far the best. Could not recommend it enough.

Fantastically good vegan food, good wine list and nice waiter!

We enjoyed the exceptional food and the really friendly service.

Amazing food, great service. Really highly recommend going here. I went two nights in a row and so happy to try almost everything on the menu. Good cocktails too! A warm bath for vegans but equally good for omnivores looking for great and honest food in Amsterdam. Love this place and will be back.

We hebben genoten van het heerlijke vegan kerstmenu. Hier wordt met liefde gekookt. De gerechten zijn verrassend smaakvol en gevarieerd. Ze worden met een glimlach opgediend in een ontspannen sfeer. Voor herhaling vatbaar.

Very well thought dishes. Never disappoints

The best vegan restaurant in Amsterdam

I went to dinner in this beautiful restaurant with my girlfriend, the staff was polite and friendly. The menu is plant based, the food is excellent, tasty and not heavy at all. The atmosphere is cozy. Furthermore you don't leave the restaurant hungry as often happens in Amsterdam😊

What a great experience we had! My partner was already hooked as he had eaten here already 2 years ago, so we went to The Meets to celebrate his birthday. We had the shared dining menu which was so delicious, an amazing bottle of Chianti (we even took the bottle home because the tag was so pretty) and enjoyed the relaxed ambiance. Amazing service, the waitress was really sweet and helpful! Bonus point for remembering from when I made the reservation that it was my partner's birthday and so they put a little candle on the desert :) We had overall an amazing time, would recommend to any vegan and non-vegan!

Had dinner here with family for my birthday. Wonderfully relaxed atmosphere. Normal sound level of the nice music in the background. And above all, delicious plant-based food! I would recommend it.

Lovely place, amazing and healthy food. Relaxed atmosphere. Fede is a nice host.

One of the nicest and tastiest places in Amsterdam for vegan food. Super friendly owner/cook.

Tappa imperdibile se siete ad Amsterdam! Locale accogliente, cucina vegana biologica e stagionale. Io ho optato per il menù degustazione perché non sapevo cosa scegliere dato che mi ispirava tutto, ed effettivamente è stato un viaggio di sapori! Io che sono vegetariana difficilmente trovo cosi tante opzioni quando vado fuori, quindi per me è stato più che appagante! Porzioni abbondanti, varie consistenze, prezzi giustissimi e staff super friendly! Lo consiglio vivamente e non vedo l’ora di tornare ad Amsterdam anche solo per mangiare qui!

I ate the fresh truffle pasta and it was really good! Excellent restaurant

Best vegan restaurant in Amsterdam. Yummy fusion of Brazilian and Italian cuisine. We recommend the five sharing dishes plus dessert.

We have been here a few times and the food has always been delicious and enjoyable. Nice welcome and beautiful decor. Highly recommended.

Great (vegan) food Allthough we are not vegan; we prefer this place above other restaurants! Great service Fantastic and very tasty food!

A great vegan restaurant in East. Delicious flavors and a very satisfied feeling at the end of the meal.

One of our favourite places in the city. Lovely atmosphere, really great and original food!

Delicious food and cozy atmosphere!

The food was very original, seasonal and delicious. The personnel are very nice & welcoming, while the restaurant itself is cosy and unpretentious. Overall, a great place to have dinner!

Super tasty food and great service in a fantastic atmosphere. Good wine and especially the desserts are super tasty! See you soon!

Perfect restaurant if you want to eat somewhere with a group of friends or a date. Cozy setting, friendly service. And without you even realizing it, it's vegan too! The only thing I can tell them is to increase the melanzane portion slightly or add standard bread. Furthermore, highly recommended if you are in the area!

Another great evening at my new favorite neighborhood Restaurant. It is the best restaurant in the Indische buurt in my opinion. Even though I am moving to France, I will make sure to come back here.

Adventurous vegan meal, super nice service

I don’t normally review places but I had the most lovely surprise dinner here last week. As didn’t know we were coming I had no idea what to expect, but the food was absolutely incredible, atmosphere was perfect (busy but not too loud, very relaxed and cosy) and it was so nice to go somewhere with such an amazing menu. We got the surprise menu and I hugely enjoyed every dish we had. A big thank you to the helpful and friendly waiting staff, and incredibly talented chefs. We’ll be back here for sure!

What a great host with eye for his guests! Delicious food in a cosy atmosphere.

The grilled eggplant is highly recommended!!

Probably my favorite vegan restaurant in Amsterdam! Every time the food is amazing (both dine in and delivery). Great flavors. One thing for sure is that I can't get enough of that chocolate tart.. The menu changes often and offers seasonal dishes and world-inspired cuisine. The service is friendly, the atmosphere cosy and the interior tastefully decorated.

What a pleasant surprise. I know this neighborhood like the back of my hand but I never got a chance to visit The Meets. I’m so happy I did that tonight. It has topped my favorite restaurant in the ‘Indische buurt’ with ease. Very tasty food. I will be back soon!

Delicious, a beautifully constructed menu, and wonderful staff. Love this place!

Amazing food in an amazing atmosphere, every time I come here I'm more impressed.

I came here following a friend's recommendation, they had some very interesting entries to try out!!! The atmosphere is something you'll notice right away it's cozy and smooth, with the low light it's even kinda romantic! The staff is very helpful and they speak English perfectly! The food was very interesting, like I said... They offer something like samples of their main courses so you get to try different stuff by ordering that, it's helpful when you don't know most of what they offer or haven't tried that! If anything, it is a bit pricey so be aware of this!!!

Cozy place with friendly staff, delicious food as well!

Delicious food, the food is very good and full of flavor. Nice and cozy place!

Nice original dishes, very cozy place, very friendly service

Creative and delicious vegan food! Highly recommend and will be coming back!

This restaurant is a real gem if you like vegan and healthy! I'm not easily impressed by a restaurant, but if you're a gourmet, you should go to Meets! We opted for the "shared menu", which means you get 6 dishes and a dessert (if I remember correctly). And one dish was even tastier than the other! We really enjoyed it immensely!

Relaxed atmosphere and very tasty food. The original dishes had a good taste and the quantity was good. Recommended

Favorite restaurant in Amsterdam. Lovely food, lovely staff. Good music at unobtrusive volume. Acoustically a pleasant place. There is music and conversations in the background, but you can easily focus on your own dinner company.

The food and the drinks were great! I believe the owners of the place served us. They seemed to be kind and nice, albeit a little bit timid.a

Wonderful, fantastic, delicious dishes. Also very doable with children. The gnocchi were a particular highlight for the children.

This is a wonderful, plant-based restaurant. We got the 6 course sharing menu and every dish was sublime. Everything was pack with flavor but balanced. Truly a gem, especially if you are vegan/vegetarian

Amazing vegan food and ambiance. We had the Sharing menu and a mocktail. They serve delicious, wholesome Italian and Brazillian dishes made all vegan and allergy friendly. I especially loved the tomato/eggplant Parmigiana di melanzane, really well-balanced flavors and umami, and the Arancini con funghi, which was simply sublime. All dishes had a beautiful presentation, and some came with some crispy textured toppings as well. The chocolate mousse is also a highlight! I'll definitely be back. Thanks for an awesome dining experience!

Dit is het fijnste en prettigste restaurant waar ik ooit heb gegeten. We kwamen hier voor de 2e keer en ik ga zeker nog een keer komen. The Meets is een op zowel de Italiaanse als de traditionele Braziliaanse keuken gebaseerd veganistisch restaurant. Pizza werd er niet geserveerd. Wel een focaccia van eigen deeg. Zowel de italiaanse als de braziliaanse recepten zijn op een hoog niveau met met liefde uitgewerkt. Dit levert een fraaie kaart vol zeer zorgvuldig samengestelde gerechten. Prachtig qua smaakpallet en qua uitvoering. Met zowel genoeg keuze voor de voorzichtige als voor de avontuurlijke eter. Ook de drankkaart is fijn en de eigenaar weet wat hij bij welk gerecht aanraadt Ik blijk fan van de brazilliaanse gerechten en mijn geliefde van de Italiaanse. Ik nam ook het dessert met miso waar in zoet en umami op een originele manier verwerkt was. Dat was na de eerste verwarring van " wat heb ik nou besteld "na een minuut een zeer aangename verrassing. Mijn lief vond dat echter maar niets en was erg blij met zijn normale dessert. De chef-koks/eigenaars zorgden beide keren voor een vriendelijke gezellige ontspannen sfeer voor de gasten van hun restaurant. Je bent echt een avondje uit. Je krijgt de tijd om van je diner te genieten en met je partner samen te zijn. Of het nu heel druk is zoals de eerste keer of wat rustiger zoals de tweede keer. Een aanrader

Never had such delicious vegetarian food before!

I went to the meets with my boyfriend in April 2023 and it was just an amazing experience. It wasn't just a meal; it was a symphony for the senses. From the first bite, I was transported on a culinary journey where the freshest, most vibrant vegetables took center stage. Each dish was a masterpiece of composition, with ingredients artfully combined to create flavor explosions. The vegetables themselves were the stars, bursting with natural sweetness and earthiness. They weren't overshadowed by heavy sauces or greasy preparations, but rather highlighted and complemented by seasonings and accompaniments that danced on the palate. Loved the beetroot tartare and the arancini ! everything was soo delicious. The meets it's for anyone who appreciates innovative, delicious and local food. They've redefined vegetarian cuisine, proving that plant-based meals can be just as exciting and satisfying as anything else on the menu. If you're looking for a dining experience that will tantalize your taste buds and leave you wanting more, look no further than The Meets. In the end we had a nice talk with Federico and it was just amazing to discover more about his devotion and dedication ! Such a good place ! loved it

Great meal with very attentive and attentive service

Fui a las reuniones con mi novio en abril de 2023 y fue una experiencia increíble. No era solo una comida; era una sinfonía para los sentidos. Desde el primer bocado, me transportaron en un viaje culinario donde las verduras más frescas y vibrantes tomaron el centro del escenario. Cada plato era una obra maestra de composición, con ingredientes ingeniosamente combinados para crear explosiones de sabor. Los vegetales mismos eran las estrellas, rebosantes de dulzura natural y terrosidad. No fueron eclipsados por salsas pesadas o preparaciones grasientas, sino que se resaltaron y complementaron con condimentos y acompañamientos que bailaron en el paladar. Me encantó el sarro de remolacha y los arancini! todo estaba tan delicioso. El cumple es para cualquiera que aprecia la comida innovadora, deliciosa y local. Han redefinido la cocina vegetariana, demostrando que las comidas basadas en plantas pueden ser tan emocionantes y satisfactorias como cualquier otra cosa en el menú. Si estás buscando una experiencia gastronómica que seduzca a tus papilas gustativas y te deje con ganas de más, no busques más y venga al The Meets. Al final tuvimos una charla agradable con Federico y fue simplemente increíble descubrir más sobre su devoción y dedicación! ¡Qué buen lugar!

Great food in a lovely set up . I am not vegan at all - but the food exceed all expectations. Deserts maybe a little pricey for the portion . Rest was amazing

A paradise for vegans and people who eat gluten-free. Large selection of dishes with inspiration from all over the world, all with a modern twist. Colorful, nutritious and very tasty. The chef is friendly and, in addition to cooking deliciously, he is also an attentive host. We enjoyed it and will definitely come back very soon.

Really good. Highly recommend the Feijoada and the Risotto (the only things mains I tried).

A pleasant quiet little mystery in our neighbourhood! My partner and I were looking for a relatively simple end of week date/drink, and found The Meets on the radar. The reviews persuaded us to go, and the service, the cuisine, and the wine did not disappoint. The food is beautiful, flavours well devised. My partner is a meat-eater, but is basque, so really enjoys well curated intricate food. He loved it and has already suggested that we bring his parents here when they visit. We came back a week later, to try more dishes, and all of them exceptional. The decor/atmosphere is something I quite like. It is not overly sophisticated, and so it's almost humbling to have such great quality food without the necessity of dressing up for the occassion. Waitress was great too! We've explored a few local restaurants, and this place is without doubt the favourite .

Very nice, tasteful and welcoming location. Friendly and helpful staff. Interesting cuisine even if personally it didn't make me wow, and considering the cost I expected to leave the place fully satisfied, but no. Therefore it would be correct to bring the kitchen to the level of the asking price. Overall still a pleasant experience.

The best plant based food in Amsterdam East 😁

A wonderful place in Amsterdam with fantastic food. My daughter and I feasted so well in this vegan heaven. We had an excellent parmigiana, a black bean stew (feijoada), artichoke crepes, arancini with mushrooms, cannoli with pistachio cream, matcha and white chocolate cream with miso caramel. I had to screenshot some of the photos from a video because I can't upload a video here. Since we couldn't decide what we wanted to try, we both chose a 3-course menu and ended up sharing everything. I deducted a star because there was a hair in one of the arancini and the service wasn't as attentive as we expected. Sure, there was only one gentleman in service, but we still often sat with empty glasses for a long time and would have liked the service to be more proactive. Overall, it is a little higher priced and the two of us paid €120 with tea and water and a tip included. Nevertheless, I definitely recommend this restaurant and I will definitely go there again on my next visit.

What a vegan experience! The staff was amazing and warming, the place is like home (but better), and the food… omg! Simple menu but delicious. Go and try! You will enjoy for sure :)

Not just good food, but artistic food. Thank you, it was great.

This is one of my most favorite places in Amsterdam! I highly reccomend checking it out if you like vegan food that is not just meat replacements. The menu changes over the seasons and i have never been dissapointed here. The service is phenomenal!

We had a great evening out at this place. Great food, friendly service and reasonably priced. And only vegan food!

Great place for a higher end vegan meal

Delicious food, friendly service and a relaxed atmosphere. Highly recommend.

Delicious food, but far too little! 3 rice balls for a man of almost 2 meters?!? Then we had dessert, but that was also a spoonful of mousse for eur 9.50. Atmosphere was good, music not, and food was really delicious, but if you're really hungry, it's better to go to another restaurant!

Vegan food is usually not our option but we would like to try something new so we decided to visit this restaurant close to our home and it’s surprised us! The staff were so friendly and excited to explaining you the flavor of the menu or drinks. I’m quite impressed. The restaurant has very cozy vibe and laidback. The food were surprisingly good. We didn’t expect that vegan food could be this flavorful and it’s really changed our mind towards vegan food! The ingredients are fresh and the presentation is good. Recommend to anyone who would like to try vegan food for the first time and this restaurant will set you with high standard. We will be back to try it again!

Nice atmosphere, and delicious food. Dishes were relatively small though, and service was a little slow.

We always eat here. Really delicious, tasty, vegan food. Good wines and friendly helpful staff.

If you're looking for a place to eat which offers great food and professionality but also a laid back and chill ambience then The Meets is the place for you. Friendly and professional staff, cozy and chill, laid back interior and ambience, and most importantly well made and good food served in an eye catching manner. I highly enjoyed the dishes I ordered and will absolutely return. Though the dishes are somewhat high in price for their size, 2 dishes and a dessert were enough to fulfill me. Price-wise it's up to standard and maybe even a little on the cheaper side for Amsterdam.

Great place and amazing vegan food. We love it every time we go. The menu is varied and changes regularly, so you never get bored of it.

Delightful and delicious vegan meal that was a treat for the senses. The Meets is a charming and creative restaurant whose dazzling menu is rooted in Italian but is by no means the usual fare. The staff is super friendly and lovely to chat with. The dishes are incredibly satisfying and express unique, unexpected combinations of flavors. The only problem is we couldn’t try everything in one sitting! : ) On our next trip Amsterdam, The Meets is on our list. Do yourself a favor and visit this eatery!

Very good vegan restaurant in Amsterdam East with very friendly service.

Surprisingly good food. Service is friendly! Unfortunately I forgot to take a photo of the beautifully presented dishes (melanzane and tortinni). Definitely recommended!

Cozy, beautiful location. Great food, good price. Several courses of the chef's menu looked a bit similar. All in all, definitely worth it!

Wat een fantastisch restaurant.... zulke heerlijke smaken geproefd, echt een feestje. Gezellige sfeer, zeer vriendelijke bediening. Maar de kwaliteit is echt TOP !!!

Delicious food in an attractive environment. What flavors...!!

We had delicious vegan (& GF) dinner. Very good selection of organic wine. Cozy atmosphere and friendly service.

I chose this place because it is vegan. Italian inspired recipes, food is fresh and really delicious. There is only one change in the menu of which we have not been informed of when we ordered: salpiçao came with coloured chards instead of cime di rapa, but nothing to complain about as it was so tasty! Definitely recommend!

Very cozy space with excellent food, served by friendly, professional personnel.

Nice restaurant, everything was fine, but it was my first time being vegan and I won't be doing that again anytime soon.

Thank you for cleaning the window of my helmet! Only realized when I was on my way home. Kind regards, Marielle

Love the place and the food! Very good flavors, good portions & loved the limoncello. Friendly staff and lovely atmosphere!

Amazing food! The dishes are delicious and also look amazing. The environment is gorgeous and their people friendly. I had a great time and definitely coming back soon!

What a lovely restaurant! Great food - clearly made with love and attention; innovative, creative cooking. Fantastic flavours, beautiful dishes. Nice choice of cocktails too! Attentive, kind, helpful service. Heartwarming experience. Will definitely come back. Yes!

Quality restaurant - authentic, creative vegan Italian/Latin American inspired dishes. Seasonal and care for ingredients and presentation, lovely service atypical for Amsterdam - highly recommend!
