2/10We booked the reservation for a special occasion, and specifically requested the terrace. When we arrived we found out they closed their terrace in one of the nicest nights in Amsterdam.

6/10We had a very unfortunate experience. We were a party of 7 and I had booked almost a month in advance to be sure the restaurant could plan accordingly. A party of 15 was taken by the restaurant at very short notice. They were in back of us and entered the restaurant very shortly after we got there. They caused major disruption to our experience and service. Service took forever because of them, and much time was spent trying to get their table together. The food was good but the evening was ruined by how long everything took, the disruption of the large party, and the general noise from them. I saw another party be seated and leave because of the lack of service due to the large party that no one had prepped for in advance. Only 2 servers were on for the whole restaurant that night. Overall terribly disappointing evening.

10/10Great place with quality food and friendly staff! I do recommend eating in the garden, really a hidden pearl in Amsterdam.

5/10Unfortunately, this was the worst meal I had during my time in Amsterdam. The food was completely either overcooked or so heavily salted it was uneditable.The menu was poorly designed with very limited options, and it was unclear what were main courses versus appetizers. To make matters worse, the dishes were overcooked and dry. Very disappointing overall — I wouldn’t return.

7.5/10Daily fish special was delicious. Lamb was not great. Tough and with bone made it difficult to cut and eat. And it was plated nicely, but the process of cutting made everything messy.

10/10We enjoyed Oriole Garden Bistro greatly visiting it for a family lunch. Our kids loved the child menu and commended the food they had same as the a la carte menu and chef's menu we had. The service and the atmosphere in the garden were excellent.

7.5/10Overall it was a nice experience, however, not a place where I would return for food. Food was good, but many other places have similar quality food in Amsterdam. The service was wonderful.

This restaurant was not fully booked at the time we were there. Perhaps that was one reason for excellent service; they had time for us. Nice wines and delicious food. Our dinner was perfect!

9/10The venue was vary nice. I was a solo visitor and was seated at a great location with a windoe seat. Service was very good, I was never rushed through a course, Orlando to finish a wine pairing so the next course could be served . The food quality was good. I've spent my six nights in Amsterdan enjoying all that Michrlin has to offer good, again, the food was good and the value was good so agree to the Bib Gourmand rating.

6/10The pacing was was way off. Our pre-dinner drinks were very late arriving (which the restaurant acknowledged, apologized for, and comped), meaning that they were served well after the appetizers had arrived. We were looking forward to ordering a couple of glasses of wine with the main course, but this became impossible as we were still working on the cocktails when the main meal was served.

10/10We eat regularly at either Oriole or Bridges restaurant. After a great dinner we drove away from the Grand Hotel. Then after 200 yards the doorman knocked on my window and out of breath handed me my phone. This is extraordinary service. The staff is very special and makes that you go back with a warm feeling. Wonderful food and wonderful people.
