Villa Maria Steakhouse in De Weteringschans

Great food, the stake was cooked perfectly and the service was excellent.

Excellent meal. Excellent service.

Welcoming atmosphere, great service and outstanding food! My prime beef steak superb

Extensive steak / burger/ chicken menu with seafood options as well. Vegetable garnish on each plate was excellent and I ate all of mine. House salad and baked potato also very good

Best steak i’ve had in a while! Great flavour and super tender. Our waiter was super kind and helpfull too! We had a minor issue because of language barrier, but the workers kindly put in effort to fix it and also gave us free drinks in the end! Will make a return for sure.

Cozy restaurant, the meat is really top quality!

Excellent food and atmosphere, very relaxed for a dinner in the city!

We had a lovely dinner. Steaks were cooked beautifully and the service was superb.

We had a delicious meal! The Argentinian beef tenderloin is highly recommended.

Great little steak restaurant, good food and service

Bassim was excellent. The food was excellent. The service was excellent. Nothing like arriving in Amsterdam and being greeted with REAL food.

Amazing food and service! The meat was spectacular, and Bassem took such great care of us, even giving us recommendations on what to order. The corn and mashed potatoes were also absolutely delicious, and they treated us to a complimentary coffee at the end. An incredible first meal in Amsterdam—we couldn’t recommend this place enough!

The place is pleasant the stuff is Nice and the food is amazing!

Great restaurant! I highly recommend it. Bassem is super kind and attentive.

Good food. The meat was quite tender.

Fantastic food and services! Leave me a great impression of this restaurant.

We were a little apprehensive because it has both very good and very bad reviews, so we didn't want to have a bad experience. We arrived around 2 pm and it was empty. More apprehension. But the service was excellent, quite fast, and it started to fill up as soon as we arrived. The empanadas were delicious, and a mixed grill meant for two fed three of us. The only thing that could be improved is the complimentary water option, since the prices are reasonable enough to include it. They didn't disappoint, so we don't know how bad an experience other people have had.

Wonderful environment Great food Nice quality cuts.

We ate: steaks and they were really delicious. Tomato soup was very tasty. Prices a bit higher, restaurant recommendation.

Food was absolutely amazing! Prices were a value deal for the quality of food! Will definitely recommend to anyone visiting Amsterdam

the food was delicious and the waiter was very very nice as well! would definitely recommend going if you’re passing by there

Steak was really good and liked the baked potato

Visiting from America, service was great, food was fantastic, would recommend!!

Christinao was an amazing waiter, very charismatic man, future in the business and a legend. Steak was top notch 5/5

Great food, amazing atmosphere. Lovely and kind staff. Even gave free drinks at the end of the meal

Amazing food. Staff were very attentive & friendly

The food was excellent, the steak was nicely flavoured and cooked to perfection. The restaurant was very clean and the atmosphere was inviting.

We had a delicious meal, and plenty of it too. Friendly staff.

Delicious food, a calm and cozy atmosphere, and nice and friendly service.

Great food and quick service. Very friendly and attentive staff. Food was so good and tasty. Bassem was a gentleman and made the experience so much better!!!

Great food! Amazing atmosphere! ✨

Excellent menu, friendly staff, fair prices

We loved the restaurant, it is very beautiful and cozy. The food is really good and so is the atmosphere. The staff is very friendly and made us feel even better! Especially Mr. Paulo, who was very nice.

Got free ribs cus of miscom with the previous order

When they found out I don't eat pork, they brought beef ribs for free

Very good restaurant, friendly staff, the mashed potatoes are excellent, thank you! 🤩

Amazing everything was great thank you so much

Really friendly staff, great food excellent steaks

Amazing! I got chicken skewer and it was really good. Will definitely visit it again

The food was a 1, everything else was fine. Almost 90 euros for a mixed grill for two, you expect something good, but it wasn't. The meat was ordered medium-rare - and it arrived like shoe leather, two prawns in the grill were stiffer than I can imagine, and a sauce they call chimichurri, but it's only chimichurri in name. The good reviews are because they tell you that if you give 5 stars you get a free shot. The service was very good, the cook was terrible.

Very Bad Service and the waiters are very good in bad language

Delicious food, very kind owner

food mediocre at best, ratings high cause of free shots

Fantastic culinary experience even better than expected, highly recommended

The steak was amazing, and the sour cream with potatoes was delicious! Steak and sour cream with potatoes are awesome!! Gracias!

Extremely disrespectful service The food itself was good, but unfortunately the service completely ruined the experience. From the very beginning, the waiter had an extremely unpleasant and confrontational attitude. When we asked if we could order something small while waiting for the rest of our friend to arrive, he made comments that made us feel as though we were doing something wrong. Throughout the meal, he continued speaking to us in a rude and unnecessarily aggressive manner. At the end, there were three of us and we simply asked if the bill could be separated into three payments. We were told that this was not possible, so I decided to pay the entire bill myself. While I was paying, the waiter repeatedly made strange and inappropriate comments, including repeatedly asking me, “If you have money, it’s no problem, no?” I found this extremely disrespectful and unnecessary. After putting up with his attitude throughout the entire meal, I finally told him that he was talking too much and that his comments were making me uncomfortable. Instead of understanding the situation or apologizing, he became extremely defensive and angry. After I asked him not to make disrespectful comments during the payment, he responded by forcefully throwing the card payment terminal toward us, making a loud noise. This was particularly intimidating and completely inappropriate. I clearly told him that his behavior was disrespectful and asked him to stop, but he seemed completely unable to understand why his behavior was inappropriate. As we were leaving, he suddenly laughed loudly at us. When my friend told him that there was nothing funny about the situation and that his behavior was disrespectful, he responded in a confrontational manner, essentially challenging my friend to confront him. I genuinely don’t know if he was having a bad day or had something else going on, but there is absolutely no excuse for treating customers this way. The food was good, but unfortunately the service was one of the most unpleasant experiences I have had at a restaurant. I hope the management takes this kind of behavior seriously.

My family and I ate at this place today because we looked it up online as an Argentinian restaurant, which it was nothing of the sort. The waiter's service was terrible, and the food was very poor for the price. I don't recommend it at all!

I demand that management take action against one of their servers! We were shocked by his behavior towards us this lunchtime. He was disrespectful, extremely unpleasant throughout the entire service, made us feel guilty, and asked us very inappropriate questions when we paid, only to laugh at us as we were leaving. He even provoked me into coming to blows. I have never seen such unprofessional behavior in my life… do something about it or your restaurant won't survive.

Best Steakhouse Ever! We had an amazing dinner at Vila Maria! The staff was super friendly, and the food was incredible. We got the surf and turf, lamb steak, and sirloin—each one was grilled to a perfect, juicy medium and so tender we cleared every last bite off our plates. Even the fries were delicious.

Bad vibe. We felt unwelcome. The waiter didn't care to explain or answer our questions and when he does he doesn't with an attitude. No one asked us how is the food or if we need anything. Had to call for the check twice. Overpriced. Wouldn't recommend.

Great Steak in the heart of Amsterdam. Cozy place also.

Stopped in while in town on business. After reading reviews all signs pointed to Villa Maria. They did not disappoint, the service from Ricardo was nothing short of phenomenal and the steak was prepared to perfection. Definitely will be back! If you are in the area, stop by and tell them Justin sent you!

We ordered rump steak and delicious ribs, good portions, very fast service.

We ate here with the family. We had nachos as a starter so the children could join in the fun. They were served with fresh guacamole and sour cream. The guacamole, in particular, was delicious! For the main course, we had steak. The meat was very tender, truly medium-rare with beautiful diamond-shaped grill marks. The staff was very friendly and attentive. Villa Maria pleasantly surprised me. We would love to come back again. Thanks, Ricardo!

Amazing place! The food was delicious and we had a wonderful time thanks to the waiter Ricardo!!

The meat and service were delicious! Ricardo was the best waiter! We were even offered a limoncello afterward. Highly recommended :)

Ricartto was so welcoming and the restaurant had a such a nice atmosphere

We had a great time here. We ordered a parrilla mixta and champiñones al ajillo, The taste was good and the meat was really soft! Ricardo provisies a good service and they also put Argentinian music and salsa so The vibe is very latin!

Food was unbelievably tasty, service was amazing, and Ricardo especially was very polite and attentive. Highly recommend Villa Maria Steakhouse for dinner.

Fantastic dining experience! I had the ribs and chicken wings, and both were delicious, tender, and full of flavour. The portions were generous, the service was friendly especially to Gabrielle, she was very attentive!, also, the atmosphere was great. I would definitely come back and highly recommend it!

Had a very tasty meal for a very reasonable price

Very lovely atmosphere, great food, and the service is excellent. Ricardo will make you and everyone around feel special. Highly recommend.

The food was delicious and the garlic spice was phenomenal. Ricardo was attentive and very friendly.

Ricardo is good Service and good steak

Don't know what we did to offend the waiter. He barely looked at us, knocked over a glass, then walked away like nothing happened—and somehow seemed offended that there was no tip. XD

Messed up our order charged us for food we didn’t order but steak is nice corn was a let down no flavour.

I highly recommend, they have the best food😊🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️ Ricardo is very friendly and respectful with customers.

Great selection of Gluten Free choices , mainly a steakhouse and the Argentinian steak skewer was delightful 😊 Had Salmon also delightful 😊 Served by Ricardo who was extremely friendly , great value , we sat outside but inside was quant and clean ...highly recommended when in Amsterdam

Beautiful food, service & Ricardo was very friendly!

Are you going out for a night in Amsterdam and want to eat a nice piece of meat? Then go here. The meat is very flavorful. You don't need any sauce or salsa with it. Tender and perfectly seasoned. It is a simpler place in terms of decor, but the food is top-notch!

Delicious steak and the service divine!

First time in Amsterdam and not knowing what to do for dinner, we stumbled upon this restaurant. I have to say that we probably couldn't have eaten better anywhere else. The steak was perfectly cooked and the fajitas were excellent too! And not to mention, the service was top-notch! Definitely recommended for those who haven't been here yet. We will certainly be back!

Everything was very delicious. The steak is perfect.

I made a reservation in advance and made it clear that I use an electric wheelchair. Everything was in English. Ultimately, upon arrival, it turned out there was a very high threshold without a wheelchair ramp. We left again.

Horrible experience. I came here with friends visiting from abroad because we wanted to enjoy a good Argentinian steakhouse. The steaks were decent - nothing exceptional, but well presented. What completely ruined the evening was the service. We ordered some pints of beer, and they were flat and warm. When I pointed it out, instead of apologising or offering to replace them, the waiter argued that “it’s Heineken,” as if that somehow explained why the beer was flat. It doesn’t. Flat, warm beer is bad beer, regardless of the brand. After that, we were completely ignored. Our empty plates sat on the table for quite a while, and nobody came to check on us. Eventually, we had to ask for the bill ourselves. To make matters worse, the bill included items we never ordered or received, including coffees and soft drinks. Mistakes can happen, but this was just another example of how poorly the evening was handled. I also pointed out that their website advertises a 25% discount for online reservations. The waiter, who appeared to be the manager, simply said “no” and walked away without any explanation. The final interaction summed up the experience. After asking whether we would pay by cash or card, I replied, “Card.” The response was, “Oh, you don’t have money?” Apart from being unprofessional, it was a bizarre comment - especially in the Netherlands, where paying by card is the norm. The food was acceptable, but the service was rude, dismissive, and unprofessional from beginning to end. I won’t be returning, and I certainly wouldn’t recommend it. *I almost forgot it - we reserved a table outside, but when we got there and asked for it the waiter just said “We don’t have outside” - when they clearly had free tables outside. And just walked inside without any other word.

The restaurant is located in a quiet spot. A beautiful and original restaurant, with excellent service and impressive food. I recommend it 100%, a 10/10 restaurant.

My son and I had a nice dinner at Villa Maria. We enjoyed a lovely grilled steak and chicken fillet. The restaurant wasn’t particularly busy, we were sat inside.. Our food was served quickly and there was a nice atmosphere. All credits to Ricardo! Many thanks for your service and lovely drink.

Excellent service and attention, the food was delicious and served quickly, and the waiters were very friendly.

Excellent atmosphere and super delicious food, the waiters are very friendly and charismatic 🤩

We loved the service and the attention from all the staff. We were a group of six, and they arranged the tables so we were very comfortable. The food presentation was perfect. The quality-to-price ratio is excellent! I highly recommend it.

Delicious spareribs, the Villa Maria marinade is honey, delicious! Pleasant owner who provides extra service. A true craftsman, highly recommended!

This place was amazing! Meat was excellent, highly recommend the mixed plate for two for $66.80. The beef was tender, the lamb was succulent, the ribs were saucy, and the margs were strong. Our server was funny and attentive without rushing us, and he offered us free limoncello after our meal.

Overpriced considering the quality of the food

It was great, no complaints. Very tender steak.

We had the share platter for 2 which was amazing, the meat was cooked to perfection! Service was lovely! Would 100% recommend for dinner!

The service was rude and horrible bad attitude no idea how to deal with customers won’t recommend this place food average .

Very good restaurant, very friendly waiters.

The meat was cooked to perfection, the side dishes superb. The fact that the dinner ended with us each being offered a drink made it all a fantastic evening!

This is not an Argentinian restaurant!!!! If that is what you want do not come here, all the staff is Indian and the meat is definitely not from Argentina. It is an Indian restaurant trying to mimic an Argentinian restaurant, that is a scam…. Curry tasting empanadas? No gracias

Had an amazing meal with my mum whilst in the city. I had the 300g Argentinian Sirloin, and my mum had the Chicken with ribs. We both had corn on the cob sides, as well as a side salad and a chips between us. Everything was cooked to perfection and was incredibly tasty. The staff are super friendly and accommodating, and cannot do enough to please. The prices are incredibly reasonable, we were amazed at how little the bill was considering the high quality of food. Definitely recommend to anyone in search of proper food!!

Very nice food , excellent service 👌 meat cooked perfectly

Food & service , excellent , we had starter, main & shared a bottle of wine , would highly recommend.

Everything was very tasty, we really liked the service. Highly recommend to visit!!!
