10/10We have traveled to many countries all over the world and the food at De Silveren Spiegel was remarkable. It was beautifully displayed and tasted better than your eyes could even know. The owner was hands on at every table and she was charmingly engaging. Our waiter was delightful and described each plate in such a way that it made you salivate before the first bite. The owner was kind enough to allow us to meet and congratulate the chef. The entire experience was extraordinary. Please do not miss the opportunity to partake in this one of a kind establishment.

10/10This is our best meal in Amsterdam. Impressed by the Chef’s creativity and ability in striking a balance among different ingredients. Could feel the Japanese element in some courses. The presentation of each course is beautiful and the food itself is flavourful. Will definitely come again!

10/10Truly the highlight of our time in Amsterdam. The service was top notch and the 6 course meal was unlike anything I have ever experienced. Delightful presentation, delicious flavors and sublime presentation were clearly the reason this is a Michelin starred restaurant t! Definitely reserve far in advance and you will find your wait well worth it!!

10/10We chose the 6-course tasting menu and the recommended wines. Everything was delicious, the combinations of flavors extraordinary, and visually stunning as you can see from the photos. The service was excellent … top notch, but not stuffy. This is a family-operated restaurant in a historic building. All the staff are very friendly and helpful if you care to engage them in conversation about the food and wine. Would highly recommend.

10/10We booked De Silveren Spiegel whilst on a weekend break to Amsterdam. My wife and I decided that instead of buying each other unnecessary Christmas presents we would treat ourselves to a special meal. I booked after reading very positive reviews and all I can say is wow! From the facade of the restaurant to the welcome from staff, we knew we had made the right choice. Each course had that magical touch without the overt drama other high end establishments try to bring. The scallop course was described by my wife as the most amazing thing she had ever eaten and I would struggle to disagree. The only downside? 8 courses with generous measures of wine pairing made the steep stairs down from the first floor a little tricky! If in Amsterdam, please try De Silveren Spiegel. You will not be disappointed.
