was very disappointed with the set menu at Floor 17. The food felt far more focused on being trendy than on being genuinely good.
The shrimp cocktail was texturally unappealing and poorly conceived. Serving very small shrimp with yet another side of rosemary sauce showed a lack of understanding of balance and flavour. Any trained chef would know this combination simply does not work.
The beef Wellington was even worse: excessively salty and deeply unpleasant. It was heavy, poorly seasoned, and completely missed the mark on what should be a refined, classic dish.
The presentation leaned into gimmicks rather than substance. The single croquette served under a lid felt ridiculous and self-important, especially considering the quality of what was underneath.
Overall, the three courses were about style over substance. For the price charged, the experience was not remotely justified. This restaurant is seriously overrated.
Please stop prioritizing trendy concepts and start focusing on well-prepared, thoughtfully composed food.
Don't waste your time or money here.
I don't usually leave reviews when I go somewhere, but what happened at this place was shameful, and not because of the food, which was passable, but because of the waiters. We ordered three hamburgers with the bacon add-on (since each extra is extra), and he only brought it to one of them. I politely explained that I had asked for bacon on all three, and he rudely replied that we hadn't said that and that I should look at the receipt instead of clearing up the misunderstanding by adding bacon to the other burgers and charging me accordingly. When he responded like that, I told him it was fine, but as we were leaving, they didn't even acknowledge our goodbyes. One of them was sitting on the steps with the doors open and didn't even move, and the rest were on their phones. A terrible impression.
If you're looking for an Italian restaurant in Amsterdam, this place could be an acceptable option, although there are several aspects that could be improved. The best thing about our visit was the pizzas, which were well-made and definitely the most recommended item on the menu.
The pasta, however, was disappointing: it was tasty, but it wasn't fresh pasta and relied too heavily on spices for flavor. For this reason, I wouldn't consider it an authentic Italian restaurant, especially if you're looking for a traditional experience.
Another negative point was the service, which was surprisingly slow even though the restaurant was only half full. This unnecessarily prolonged our meal.
The drinks were also quite expensive, something to keep in mind. In total, we spent €23 per person, which is rather high for the overall quality.
In short, it's an acceptable place to eat a good pizza in Amsterdam, but there's room for improvement in authenticity, service, and value for money.
La Place is currently closed from Monday, January 12th, to Sunday, January 18th, due to renovations.
La Place Kalverstraat really needs to adjust its opening hours, so from now on, it will no longer be open from 5:00 PM, but until 7:00 PM.
Or this La Place could disappear from Amsterdam's city center for good.
La Place Kalverstraat is really deteriorating, with almost no extensive selection available anymore.
After 5:00 PM, Monday through Wednesday, La Place resembles a food bank.
And the smoothies are apparently free.

La Place has still not adjusted its opening hours from Monday to Wednesday. Opening until 5:00 PM is really no longer possible.
La Place is kindly requested to adjust its opening hours from Monday to Wednesday to 7:00 PM.
La Place's customers would like to have something to eat here after work.
LA PLACE IS STILL OPEN UNTIL 5 PM
THIS IS NO LONGER POSSIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
La Place Kalverstraat is kindly requested to adjust its opening hours to the normal opening hours as soon as possible. Being open until 5 PM every day is absolutely insane. Using the restroom should also be free for La Place customers. It's absolutely ridiculous that La Place customers have to pay extra for restroom visits.
Many ticket offices are closed, and it's crowded.
The reception was good!
The courts are in the basement.
The condition of the courts is very poor for the money you pay.
The prices here are way over the top!
For 2 cups of water and 6 cheese sticks, €16.50.
I won't be coming back here again.
I often go to Lotti’s for drinks with friends and family, and it’s always a great experience. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, making it an easy place to come back to. Special thanks to Christian, great guy, always end up having a laugh with him. He really adds to the overall experience.
A nice old style bar. With very efficient but abrupt servers. I ordered a low alcohol beer and got looked down at because of it. I noticed them do this to a senior couple too. It is not the experience you want. The atmosphere between guests was great.
The two of us regularly eat here, both for lunch and dinner.
Always a pleasant experience, excellent food and drinks, great service—in short, our favorite restaurant.
Highly recommended!
