    Chef himself came to greet us due to some misunderstanding with the reservation. They accommodated our special requests and tailored a special meal for our hunger level and were friendly and serviceable. Food was amazing! Beautifully served and very special! Only thing is the location is pretty far from the city if you’re a tourist coming from there, and its a bit hard to find on the second level of a hotel.

    Fantastic service, beautiful dishes, great atmosphere. I highly recommend this restaurant. During daytime also a beautiful view on the Amsterdam harbour. Can’t wait to go back.

    I thoroughly enjoyed all the courses and loved that all of them were both delicious and delightfully unexpected. Sometimes food can be experimental and different but not something that is truly delicious. Lars Amsterdam achieved the best fit between different and delicious, and I will recommend it to any friends who visit Amsterdam.

    Very imaginative menu. The food is a bit on the salty side. View would have been nice in the daytime. Very attentive service.

    I booked a table to celebrate my partner's birthday, I chose Lars because of the interesting menu and the different location. The food was exquisite and the wine pairings were excellent; especially the spätlese merlot, an inspired choice for dessert. The staff were friendly and helpful, without being overbearing.

    Overall, not a great experience. The good is average, portions are really small. Nobody offered me to won or asked me what I wanted to drink...No sweets offered next to coffee. There are better restaurants in Amsterdam and many better restaurants for the price they ask,

    The food is as good as you can find anywhere. Exciting and exceptional quality. The staff are friendly and engaging whilst retaining professionalism and knowledge. The only negative is the location of the restaurant being some way out of town, but it is actually well worth the added miles!

    6.5/10

    The restaurant, offered a pleasant ambience and the service was good. We ordered the 11-course tasting menus, one vegetarian and one regular. While the presentation of the dishes was pleasing, the flavors often leaned towards unnecessary complexity, occasionally falling just flat. In summary, it was a decent dinner: we left thinking if extended tasting menus should still be a thing and if, even for technically skilled chefs, simply focusing on more balanced flavors would be a better strategy to create something memorable.

    Good quality of fine dining. Simply the best in my trip. Waiting time was a bit long. Since it is far away from city center, need to allocate more time if you are planning to do something after the meal.

    Excellent service with a very funny, helpful and cognizant young lady. Inspiring food with lovely details and amazing tastes! The restaurant has a fantastic view and even more fantastic dishes. The courses were designed with a vision and we could feel that. We loved it and we will definitely come back when we visit Amsterdam again.

    Fantastic lunch that made me try out new stuff I usually don‘t like! Food and composition as well as staff and location were great. Really recommend the place of the very friendly and talented chef and owner Lars. Will come back on my next visit to the city.

    The food was fantastic, and was easily one of the best dining experiences we've had. What really sealed the deal though was the excellent service. The staff were very friendly, casual and just a lot of fun.

    Lars Amsterdam is one of our favourite restaurants in Amsterdam. This visit reminded us once again why! We enjoyed the signature menu with matching wines, and everything was absolutely delicious. Apart from the dishes as mentioned in the menu, you can also expect excellent amuse bouches, a pre-dessert and home made chocolates which really completes the menu. The excellent wine pairing completed the experience. A nice extra is that the restaurant offers views over the Amsterdam Harbour, so you can see the ships and cranes while you are enjoying your diner. Not your standard Amsterdam canal view, which is a nice change of scenery. We'll definitely be back - thanks again Lars, Floor and team!

    Great and creative Christmas menu in an evocative setting. However a nine course tasting menu shouldn’t take 4 hours to serve and staff seemed completely oblivious to our hints and eventually statements of discomfort.

    Six course menu was surprising, nice combinations. Point of attention is the taste of the lobster. Because the supplements on the lobster (orange) was a bit covering the taste of the lobster itself. We will come again.

    An amazing restaurant! The location is great with views over the water, each course we had was delicious and the staff was super friendly and professional. Nothing was too much, they prepared special dishes for the people in our party with food intolerances, the chef came to the table and introduced himself and really took the time to talk to us. Nice to see that great food does not need to be served in a stuffy environment. We are definitely coming back!
