Yu Family Kitchen in Burgwallen-Nieuwe Zijde

We loved this place ! Gluten free - and delicious. We came here two nights in a row we loved it so much - a little place but so good! We ate outside both times and enjoyed people watching -

If I lived here, I would go regualary! Loved it! Taste exceptional! Thank you!

Atmosphere felt very unwelcoming.Food was okay,but it’s not the best.The lady seemed like she didn’t want us at the restaurant,to be fair it was late at night but there was no sign that I saw for the time it was more walk down the alley and see what’s still open and It was our first time in Amsterdam.Little bit disappointed I should’ve walked away from the restaurant and got something else.Not a big fan.

What a gem of a place, simple home cooking. Value for money. Service very friendly and helpful. Very nice and filling.

Located in the heart of Amsterdam's city center, this small, halal restaurant features Chinese chefs. However, the food lacked authentic Chinese flavor. While the prices were reasonable, the food itself was quite basic and the portions were small; you might need a snack afterward to stay full while sightseeing. We tried the beef and peanut chicken dishes; the beef was enjoyable, but the chicken was just okay. I wouldn't return for another meal, although the chefs were friendly and the location is very convenient.

Very nice food! And also cheap! The owners are super nice, too! If you are hesitating, just choose here! Delicious! We chose the beef rice set! Good value for money!

It’s a fast food. Absolutely don’t recommend no flavor at all.

Very good. Freshly prepared and tasty. I did have to get two portions to be full though (but ok I'm admittedly a big eater)

Best Chinese food for extremely good value for money. Always delicious food with tender meat. I love this place.

I ate here once for a conference 8 years ago and became a regular customer. I came here every day during the conference and enjoyed the delicious food🤩. Today, 8 years later, I returned to the same place. The boss and his wife are still as cordial and enthusiastic as before. The food tastes just right. My wife and I were moved by everyone and the food👏❤️‍🩹

Usually, when you think of Chinese restaurants in Europe, you would imagine things like very salty, very sweet, very greasy... but instead, it has a lighter feel and a lighter feel. In particular, it landed right at Amsterdam Central Station, but it was rainy and cloudy? Then, you can throw your luggage in the hotel or coin locker and come to this house. It's not easy to get a hot Chinese rice bowl at this price in the middle of downtown Amsterdam. In particular, the shrimp rice bowl stir-fried in oyster sauce is very luxurious because it has the taste of Yu Xiang sauce, and eating the beef rice bowl with Yu Xiang sauce and sprinkling the spicy sauce on the table will fill your stomach.

So delicious, we got black bean sauce with chicken and shrimp. And beef with oyster sauce. Food was 10/10, hit a spot for Chinese food while traveling. Owner was so kind, we came close to close but was invited in. Homestyle food.

Delicious food and great service.

Was OK but nothing too crazy. Only 4 scampies in scampi meal

Good value for money and tastes good

We genuinely go out of our way to eat here, it's so good and the fact you can get sauces that are gluten free is excellent. I imagine the cross contamination is pretty high so be careful, but my wife isn't bothered by it.

Super good food with adorable owners. Highly recommended if you want to eat well and cheap in Amsterdam.

Terrible. Don't do it!!! No idea how this restaurant gets their reviews?????

I had the number 19 with Yu Xiang sauce and it was great

A small and cozy place, it is to eat and continue with the visit, that is, a place to pass through. Hot and abundant food. Without a doubt a good choice.

Excellent food and service for a decent price!

Super good and inexpensive! I recommend the noodles with eggs it was very good

#1 and #13. Good flavor. Both meats were very tender and the sauce wasnt too spicy. We opted for egg fried rice for an extra 1.00. I feel it wasn't worth the money to upgrade. I would try them again.

Very friendly owners. We had a really delicious meal there, at reasonable prices. We will eat there again.

Lovely friendly staff . The food was nice and piping hot . I had sweet & sour chicken with noodles . There are no steps into the restaurant. So not suitable if you are in a wheelchair as my sister is , but they did have seating outside as well as inside. Halal certificate. No pork .

Great food, affordable prices and super friendly staff!

Cozy family business with, above all, good food, with fast and friendly service. Definitely recommended!

food reminded me of family home-cooked dinners and was just what i needed after a tiring day. they were really nice as well, and the restaurant was very clean. loved it!

Delicious food and really decent prices compared to other places in the city center. Sweet that it is also a family business.

Terrible treatment, 4 friends went to eat and they made a mistake with a dish and they didn't want to change it or return the money. The cook comes out screaming at us and treating us terribly. Without wanting to admit his mistake, neither giving the money, nor providing the dish that was requested. My friend ended up leaving without eating and without the money, and the rest of us eating with a bad atmosphere from the cook. Don't go there, you little shameless and hard-faced person.

Very bad treatment, the cook started yelling at us because we had complained to him about his confusion of a dish that we had ordered, he became all upset and told us that there was no confusion, in the end I no longer want to eat that dish that I have not lost and I ask them I want them to give me the money back for my plate, the chef was most upset to know what things he would be telling us. I was left without eating and without the money that that dish cost me. Totally, we will never repeat in a place like this. They yell at you for complaining about their mistake, and they also don't take responsibility for their mistake. They don't know how to treat customers.

Great family restaurant! The food is tasty and plentiful, good value for money! At the top, we recommend :))

Super nice people and always delicious

What a great find! Excellent food, good choice, great price.

I enjoyed a simple chinese meals here. I really recommend you to visit.

Very average, not too much flavor, cheapest rice, quite small portion of the meat, staff was not very friendly.

Chinese restaurant owner from Wenzhou Delicious and affordable meals

Good food with delicious vegetarian options. The sauces were especially tasty and flavorful. However, I’m giving one star less because the portions were a bit small

Good food and traditional Chinese restaurant

I am Korean. Shrimp fried rice with oyster sauce is delicious. It's delicious overall. The lady's style has a Gyeongsang-do feel. She likes me when I write reviews (laughter)

Beautiful food, wonderful service. Loved it here when I was in Amsterdam two years ago

I got food poisoning from their food yesterday. Very badly taken away by ambulance

Incredibly delicious food, for spicy lovers this is the best place, the chicken is so tender that it just melts in your mouth. I recommend!!!

Very good restaurant in which I greatly enjoyed eating. Friendly atmosphere in the narrow streets of Amsterdam. Fast service, good food and friendly managers. Delicious chicken curry sauce. And halal!

Family teste like my grandma used to cook for me. Good price big portion. I like it!

Great value food and really tasty. I was craving something like this so much after all the fried food I’d had on my trip and it was great. I got the chicken in black bean sauce for €10 and it was perfect. The rice was lovely and it came quickly.

All scales are out of 5 🍩🍩 (Flavour scale) Home cooked dishes, not necessarily a bad thing. But the food is clearly reheated on the wok. The rice is not fresh and you can tell it’s been taken out of the fridge, meat is questionable and likely to be frozen or prepped in advance. Maybe I came at a bad time but I wouldn’t recommend. 💰💰(Value for money) Pricey for what you get. 🫃🫃(Portion size for big boy) Very light on the meat and heavy on the rice portions 🌹 (Date night?) Not a date kinda spot

Authentic- good gong pao chicken

The food was of decent quality. But the service is not friendly.

it’s nice but the staff a bit rude

Rude patrons kicked us out even though we were already leaving

Delicious food and friendly staff. Food arrived extremely quickly and the prices are very good for the amount you get.

Great food and service with reasonable prices! Will be back soon

Perfect to get out of trouble, good food and at the best price in the area. Very satisfied to be able to continue walking and visiting the city center.

If you are walking through the streets of the city and are looking for a cheap but good place, Yu Famiy is ideal. It offers various alternatives cooked in a simple but tasty way.

A Chinese bistro serving typical. delicious yet inexpensive Chinese food. The stir-fried beef is just right, juicy and tender. I would say even better than those served in high-end Chinese restaurant. It’s a good choice for those who want some alternatives other than pizza, burger and fries.

My favorite chinese restaurant. The sweet and sour chicken with vegetables and a side of rice is amazing, especially with the chilli sauce they have in the restaurant

It was really bad, I ordered chicken and beef and the sauce had flavor but the meat didn't, it was awful. I didn't know food could be this bad.

Authentic fresh and calming food

food was soooo good, highly recommend the yu xiang sauce! food was authentic and felt very homely

I loved the stir black bean chicken with fried rice ! Great taste and value..

We went in to dine when it was about to close, but the boss still let us sit down. The meal was simple and delicious, fragrant and hot, not too salty. There were discounts for the drinks that were paired with it. We recommend the kung pao and fish flavor. The boss was very kind and recommended it to Chinese people. .

Absolutely delicious.. so glad we found this place completely by chance. Perfect meal for a cold rainy day. It's a family run place so shouldn't have any doubts about quality. Especially recommend to fellow Indians travelers. The flavours will hit all the right spots :)

Quiet place where they serve you very kindly. Amazing food and at the best price. Without a doubt, the best choice

My goodness the food here is awesome. It was a saver for us, people who don't like eating breads, churos, Waffel all the time.

Good fast food. light and good food. Price paid for 2 people (2 menus) 24.40 euros including 2 dishes of rice, meat and fish and 2 drinks. there are 4 tables outside and about 8 seats inside. It's a family run business (I think it's husband and wife). 🙂

A small Asian kitchen with delicious dishes. You have choices between: chicken, beef, shrimp and vegetarian dishes. Choose the noodles which are incredible!!

Visit in mid to late November 2023. I visited this store because I was craving warm rice after eating mostly bread. It is located inside a small alley in a downtown area. I visited alone and was worried because I'm not good at eating spices, but contrary to my expectations, it was really delicious! I ordered the Yu Special Mix with Gong Bao Sauce without the peanut sauce. It was a little spicy (not too spicy) but not too greasy, and the warm rice filled my stomach. (If you want it extra spicy, you can tell us separately!) It seemed like a store run by a Chinese couple. The wife is in charge of the store, and the father-in-law is the chef in charge of cooking. (Your first impression may be that it looks stiff and unfriendly, but in reality, it's not like that at all!) It's been a while since I had a delicious meal, so I expressed my gratitude directly through the translator, and the chef smiled cheerfully and greeted me warmly.🥹 Thanks to you, I had a delicious meal, had a pleasant trip, and returned to Korea safely! Thank you♥️ I will visit again the next time I travel to Amsterdam! Stay healthy always☺️

Went to this restaurant when I was traveling in Amsterdam. As a Chinese, I found the food very appetizing and authentic. Try it folks, it’s good.

The most affordable meal I have ever had in the Netherlands, it tastes delicious, the boss is kind, and the freshly fried meals are very delicious, recommended...

A small Asian restaurant in the center of Amsterdam ideal to regain strength. Food and service 10. The owners are super friendly and the homemade food is delicious. Recommended 100%

Just incredible, the flavors are incredible, the owners are super nice, I highly recommend

Great food and really not that expensive. The staff are also very friendly and helpful.

Best noodles I've had in the Netherlands sofar!! And really nice owners.

For the same price as a takeaway, you sit and eat in a tiny family restaurant, from real plates with real cutlery. Great food, quiet and relaxed atmosphere. I recommend ❤️

Everything was perfect. the quality of the food was very good, the employees were very nice. It's a very small restaurant, so it's perfect for eating a quick meal on a rush.

Lovely meal, tasty and fresh ingredients.

Almost all main dishes 9-12 EUR, were served after 90 seconds, freshly prepared. Absolutely worth the money and very tasty!

Amis français allez y, c'est très bien et bon.

Erg lekker eten dat verzorgd wordt opgediend door vriendelijke mensen. Een echte aanrader voor een snelle goedkope maaltijd!

For the last 6 years, every time we go central we always eat here. It is very good food

Cuisine goutue, peu chère et copieuse.

Average asian food. Sweet & Sour was a bit bland. Not authentic.

Really surprisingly delicious food for the location and size. Incredibly juicy chicken.

In center small restaurant with tasty food and friendly stuff. I always try to visit this restaurant when I wisit Amsterdam. Important reasonable prices.

love this place. i keep coming back and the quality never lets me down. its fresh, tasty and quick. never dissatisfied at yu family kitchen!

halal restaurant for muslim traveler. Affordable price and close the Amsterdam centraal.

No está mal, sitio de comida rápida china que puedes elegir varios tipos de platos combinados y 5 salsas con diferente tipo de picante. Los platos se sirven con arroz pero puedes cambiar a noodles. Si buscas un sitio de paso es perfecto, además puedes sentarte aunque el local es pequeño. No dispone de lavabo.

Pequeño restaurante chino en pleno centro. Lo lleva una familia y se nota porque realmente está muy bueno. Pedí ternera con salsa de ostras y arroz por 10'95€, agua por 3€. Super rico y económico para la zona en la que están.

Salah satu restoran chinese food halal di amsterdam. Ada label halalnya. Tak menyediakan menu pork. Lokasi di pusat kota. Harga masuk di kantong. Rasa masakan enak. Hanya jika bagi keluarga kurang rekonended apalagi jika bersama anak anak meski nama resto nya Yu Family Kitchen. Bagi anda backpacker tempat yang pas untuk menyantap makan siang atau malam

Immer wenn ich in Amsterdam bin gehe ich hier essen. Besonders die Tofu Gerichte sind sehr lecker und günstig.

I always go there when I don’t know what to eat!

方便的快餐店，價格親民，適合趕時間的旅者。餐廳很小沒有WC，要到附近的大餐廳借用。

רק האורז והירקות כשמערבבים ביחד את הרוטב טעים וסביר,ֶהעוף לא מרגיש עוף,ֶמשהו מוזר מאוד שומני. הגברת גם לא נחמדה, כארוחה צמחונית סביר . צלמתי את העוף שגם לא נראה עוף, משהו מוזר.

饭菜好吃，价格实惠（一盘宫保鸡饭9.95欧），配上米饭很管饱。老板会讲中文，还问了我就餐体验，怪可爱的

Un ottimo posto! Si tratta di un locale economico e molto buono. La carne era tenerissima e il tofu delizioso. Sono stati anche molto veloci nel servizio :)

Comida super buena y muy buen precio,

Good place for rice/noodles with choice of sauce & prawns/chicken/beef/all mixed

Vor dem Lokal gegessen. Sehr kurze Wartezeit nach der Bestellung. Essen warm, gut und auch optional mit Nudeln 👌🏻. Kann man empfehlen.

Small family restaurant, the owners are super nice and you always feel welcomed. The food is really good and they even have veggi/vegan options which we appreciate. It’s a hidden dime
