The Poffertjes Office in Burgwallen-Nieuwe Zijde

I had a delicious grilled meat and vegetables here. The draft beer was also very good. A busy but very cozy cafe! 🤗❣️

We had dinner the other night at Arca, and it was a huge disappointment. We paid €169 per person (water and drinks excluded of course) for six small dishes, with medium to low quality overall. The meat arrived cold, which at this price point is simply unacceptable. The service timing was honestly shocking. We were seated at 9:00 pm and the dinner was supposed to be completed before midnight, since it was New Year’s Eve. Instead, we weren’t even served the first course, not even the pasta, before midnight. We only finished eating at 1:30 am, meaning the dinner lasted over four and a half hours for just a few plates. To apologize, they told us they would offer champagne, but what they actually brought was a glass of Portuguese wine. When we pointed out that this was not champagne, the response was: “Yes, yes, it’s champagne from Portugal.” At that point, the level of professionalism and honesty was honestly embarrassing. Given that this restaurant is listed in the Michelin Guide, expectations were high. Unfortunately, the experience was nowhere near Michelin standards. Overpriced, poorly managed, and disappointing. Absolutely not recommended.

You really have to come here for delicious Afghan food. I often come here for the delicious tandoori chicken and the indispensable Kabuli Palaw rice. It's also nice that there's no background music. It's a great place for a chat. And it's 100% halal, and they don't serve alcohol. Respect! The staff are also so friendly and unpretentious, I love it.🫡

What a fantastic place this is! On a sunny, busy Saturday, I celebrated my birthday here with friends. The service is traditionally friendly and knows exactly what they're doing! They discuss your preferences and make sure everyone has a good time. The food was delicious, and everything arrived at the same time. The cocktails here are especially delicious. There's no pre-mixed junk, and everything is made with love and passion. Don't miss one of the many Bloody Marys! Thanks for a wonderful day, guys!

10/10! Perfect spot for a date night or dinner with friends. Food was amazing and a must visit if you only have a few nights in town.
