10/10We had a party of seven and made reservations based on recommendations from our travel agent. The food and service were excellent. Many of us tried the Stamppot and it was delicious. The atmosphere was very comfortable. If you’re looking for good Dutch cuisine at reasonable prices I highly recommend.

10/10Our family from the states ( Texas and California) had a get together in Germany, the Netherlands and Belgium. We were told by a friend in Houston that when we are in Amsterdam we must have dinner at the Blue Dutchman. It did not disappoint. The food and service was outstanding and the prices were very reasonable. I shared the butter balls and bread/ three spreads for appetizer then had the salmon with the asparagus and mashed potatoes for my entree. I then shared the apple pie and had a decaf cappuccino for dessert. Everything was awesome; especially the bitter balls and the pie.

5/10Candidly, we were disappointed. Crowded seating, good but not great food, average service (forgot our water, long delay before main plat, waiters standing around, no one offering second drink). There are other better traditional restaurants.

10/10The restaurant was open early and the staff treated me like a welcomed guest for my first meal in the Netherlands, as a tired and jet-lagged traveler who’d arrived just four hours before. The beer selection was good and the food tasted homemade. Slavinken (meatball sausages wrapped in bacon), Snert (pea soup with rye bread and smoked bacon), and Poffertjes (puffy donut-hole pancakes) are all perfectly done, seasoned just enough to accentuate their natural flavor. I ordered these as a 3-course special menu combo for €32, and somehow it was rung up as only the main course plus the beer. By the time we realized it on the receipt, I’d already paid and the restaurant decided to honor the much lower price I’d paid.

5/10Service too fast. They want you in and out. I don't appreciate plates being cleared whilst someone is still eating.

10/10Wanted to go to a traditional Dutch restaurant and the De Blauwe Hollander was recommended and did not disappoint. We managed to book a table just as well as the restaurant was busy from when we arrived to when we left. The staff were friendly and efficient, the food was great tasty and plentiful, would recommend the Stampot dishes.

10/10Booked this for our first dinner in Amsterdam and it was a lovely place to sample some Dutch classics. Very much recommend the Bitterballen and Stamppot (and do save room for the Poffertjes! They are gorgeous)

About this restaurant
De Blauwe Hollander heeft op 1 april 1979 zijn de deuren geopend, de naam “Blauwe” is een verwijzing naar de blauwe uniformen van de marinemensen die vroeger naar Indonesië en Suriname werden gestuurd om daar te blijven als permanente vertegenwoordigers van Holland. De “Hollandse Pot” werd in de voormalige koloniën meer gewaardeerd omdat het in de tropen geen alledaagse kost was en omdat het, het verlangen naar Holland enigszins temperde.
