Food choice and quality was excellent. Service was flawless and great ambience. Only downside was the burger bun got too soggy after few minutes, but all round clear plates and happy tummies 👍

Food was lovely and really good quality the only downside is we were so packed in where it was so busy we were almost dining with the couples either side of us

We really enjoyed our visit to this restaurant. Very convenient if you are visiting Anne Franks house. We had a lovely table which was ready when we arrived. The staff were very pleasant. The service was 10/10. We ordered a lovely bruschetta starter followed by a burger. Absolutely divine. We would definitely recommend this restaurant & would love to return. A nice touch … when you get your bill they give you lovely fruity sweets on the side.

Wonderful dinner with friends. I live here in the Netherlands now but from the US. Friends were visiting and I chose Black and Blue based on the menu of options and good reviews. The food, the atmosphere and style of the restaurant made it a very cozy and enjoyable even to catch up. Left a great impression on my American friends as well.

Sad to have a booking and be seated downstairs in the basement next to the toilets and be freezing cold. The medium-rare steak was badly overcooked but after waiting so long, just accepted it.

Loved the food, loved the staff. The only little downside is that it was a little loud, but I guess not much way around it :)

Great smokey hamburgers made in their special grill. Great choice of cocktails and lovely wine. Very chique and so centrally located near the Anne Frank museum.

Popular option in the neighborhood. A bit noisy and crowded with tables close together. Steaks are average quality as are other food options. Hotel recommendation. Expected more for price points.

The steak was over done and a little dry. We asked for medium with a hot pink center, it was well done with no pink. In addition, it wa luke warm when served.

Whenever my travels take me to Amsterdam I have dinner at Black and Blue. The food and service are always good, and there is consistently a busy, happy vibe that makes is easy to spend time. Plus the bottomless frites don't hurt!

amazing food (albeit only gave us one basket of fries to share), love the environment, everything is perfect, disappointing that the flowers on the table are plastic which is a shame as everything else is elegant and perfect
