Food was delicious and carefully prepared. Attractive restaurant and very good service in a lovely canal area. I highly recommend it.

Wonderful location. Excellent service. Tasty food. We loved it. One potential caution: lunch took 1.5 hrs. So if you want a quick bite, perhaps tell the staff that ahead of time.

A tad disappointing. We were here last year and had a great meal which was why we returned. Things have changed. The service seemed rather amateur and the food was sub-par. We first ordered a glass of rose each and were poured a shamefully small amount. Quite absurd. When we asked for a second I did comment and a different server poured normally. We then had a Dover Sole each which was supposed to be served with beure noisette. It arrived slightly overcooked and floating in a sea of oily melted butter which was most unpleasant. I did ask whether the chef had any idea what beure noisette is supposed to be and was told that what was produced was what always comes from the kitchen. I suggest the chef might invest in a recipe book and learn to make a proper beure noisette. At 65€ a pop and with no vegetables included this was pretty unacceptable. We shall not be recommending this restaurant sadly. A shame since it is in a great location and was previously so good.

We ate at Jansz a year ago. It was I best meal we ate in our 2 weeks in Amsterdam. Tonight it was awful. My wife ordered the sole. Same as she did last year except there was no salad with it or vegetable. It was completely tasteless and there was a tremendous amount of oil on the plate. For 65 euros that is ludicrous! My sea bass was also very mediocre. The spinach was soggy and drenched in a terrible sauce. No bread was served until I asked for some. It was one of the worst meals we had this year in Amsterdam.

From the Amazing service and ambience to the gourmet cuisine, my wife and I very much enjoyed the experience. It was a great way to celebrate my birthday. And the Pulitzer Bar was a nice way to complete the evening.

Jansz has become a must every time I’m in Amsterdam. I love everything about this classy restaurant. This time we sat on the patio and while we all enjoyed it, I prefer the inside room. I had the chicken and liked it, didn’t love it as I find soggy (not crispy) chicken skin to be off putting. Aside from that, I will definitely be back at the Jansz on my next trip to AMS. PS. An after dinner drink at the Pulitzer Bar is always a nice way to end a dinner here. Please, don’t change anything about it. And those chips, keep ‘em coming!

We just celebrated my mother’s birthday at your restaurant for the second year in a row — and once again, it was an unforgettable experience. Last year left such a beautiful impression on her that returning felt like the only right choice, and you absolutely delivered once more. From the thoughtful card and lovely flowers to the Crémant and the incredible attention from the entire staff, everything was perfect. A heartfelt thank you to Taylor, who helped me organize everything over the phone with such care, and to our waiter Daniel, whose elegance and warm presence truly elevated the evening. Also, sincere thanks to the other floor staff who attended to us so kindly and contributed to making this night so special for my mother. We’re already looking forward to celebrating with you again next year — and until then, we’ll be back to enjoy your amazing food!

We had to wait 90 minutes; yes 1,5 hrs for our fishes to be served. The excuse that too many guests came at the same time was ridiculous at guests that came way later then us were served before.

The menu choice for lunch is limited but when you don’t have a third choice available is not very satisfactory. The food was a little cold and had to be sent back so really not as satisfying as I would have hoped.
