    We decided to try out Osteria Moderna before going to a concert close to Leidseplein. This restaurant is located in a residential neighborhood within easy walking distance from Leidseplein and Museumplein. They serve a Chef’s Menu and we were asked to share any dietary restrictions in advance. Due to the good reviews and rating we arrived with high expectations. We enjoyed the food and service and there were no major flaws, but we haven’t experienced any real highlights either. We received a promotional discount via The Fork, which resulted in a fair price for the food and service we received. If we would have paid the full price, I would have rated our experience as “average”.

    A little off the beaten track but well worth tracking this place down (especially if you can get a deal on their delicious food).

    Lovely small neighborhood restaurant that delivers high quality feeling and attention to the food. I liked that we were called earlier in the day to find out if we had any food restrictions (which we did, no meat) and so when we got there all the courses were prepared according to our wishes without having to discuss that at the table. It gave a really nice feeling of special service. the wine pairings were delicious although a bit pricey at 10 euros per glass for a rather small pour. The food was excellent, the only issue was that the main course was a bit salty overpowering the fish. we will come again for sure!

    Food was average, not corresponding to price vs quality. Time between courses took 30-40 minutes on a tasting menu and we were left several times without wine in glasses.

    Talking about time your booking was 18.30, you came 18.42, You didn t inform us, as universal rule of Horeca and good manners it teaches, that you want to leave early, then suddenly you told us you need to leave in 20 minutes, after you had already 2 courses and the wine pairing (it's call wine pairing cause i serve the wine with the food, If you want more wine you could simple wave at me, and i would give more wine.). 4 courses dinner, full house and you want eat in less than 2 hours without inform us?! I recommend several interesting Fast Food in the neighbourhood, the food wont be as tasty as us but you definitely eat in 30 minutes. Regards

    Third time here. Food is excellent and creatively made. Service is personal and I love the fact you can share the wine by the glass that accompanies the tasting menu. We will be back!

    We recently had dinner at Osteria Moderna, this is a real hidden gem!. The food was nothing short of fantastic, offering a delightful taste of Italy that was clearly prepared with a lot of care and love. The service was equally impressive, with the waiter tool the time to explain each dish with great attention. The intimate atmosphere of the restaurant added to the overall charm of the evening. Highly recommended!

    Wonderful and intimate restaurant. There is no menu, you choose between 3, 4, or 5 courses. The host was excellent and provided great wine choices aside from the pairings. All of the food was incredible and delicious. Would definitely recommend

    My wife and I dined here last night. Michele was very gracious and accommodating and explained food and wine pairings and ingredients in detail. Georgia’s dishes were gorgeously presented, delicious, used fresh ingredients, and combined flavors and ingredients in a creative and refreshing way. Restaurant is central but in a quieter residential neighborhood away from tourist madness. Met some locals, which made for a memorable evening. Will come back next time we visit Amsterdam.

    Wonderful little restaurant with a super friendly wait staff, absolutely wonderful tasting menu and outstanding wine pairing. We chose the half option of small pours with each of our four courses and enjoyed it tremendously. Wonderful memory of our trip to Amsterdam. Very good value for quality of food and ambiance. Highly recommend.

    This restaurant is a hidden gem. The food is simply perfect: creative, sofisticated and tasty. The service is the exact blend between friendliness and respect to the best Italian traditional osterias. I’m summary, the experience is like you came to visit a family member and discovered that he/she is now an awarded chef.

    We were lucky to be able to reserve a table for a Saturday evening at short notice. The food is simply AMAZING. Living in Paris, we are spoiled for choice, but Osteria Moderna managed to surprise us in the most positive way. The dishes are small pieces of art, beautifully looking and even better tasting. The surprise menu was full of, well, surprises. The pasta with liquid parmigiano in a prawn reduction blew us away, innovative and mouth watering. The wine pairing was great too, with some unusual Italian quality wines. If you likes desert wines, ask Michele about his special find, it will not disappoint. Overall, this Italian gem in Mokum is worth a detour!

    Food was absolutely great. With a cream of roasted garlic and anchocy with the rib eye being the absolute highlight! However, four courses took four hours. And that's too long for my attention span and hunger levels haha.

    Food quality was all over the board (great steak, bad vegetable pairing like a wedge of burnt chewy onion). Elements of the dishes felt disconnected and for a pre fixe menu, that’s a huge disappointment
