6/10Very nice atmosphere and very attentive staff, comfortable seating and well decorated. The food was a bit flat and the ingredients were not mixed in a way that would surprise your senses, the dishes were only “ good” not up to the standard you would expect with such a nice presentation. But the worst of all, and the main reason why I give this punctuation, the dinner lasted for more than 3 hours. My blood circulation was begging me to stand up and move, I felt like kidnapped in my seat. We had time to begin to digest the food between dishes. I had the impression that because they have both a la carte and different tasting menus the kitchen was not able to prepare fast enough what they were offering. They have lots of potential but I think they could do much better if they’d stick to either a la carte or one or two tasting menu, Service was very nice, very professional and fast, they were doing very well. Thank you for that.

10/10Memorable Birthday dinner couldn’t fault it. A lovely meal started with Normandy oysters with champagne followed by a chefs choice 5 course taster menu. The place was tasteful with a pleasant ambience. A courses were excellent and the wine pairing worked well. The serving staff were engaging and made our evening . Highly recommended and didn’t break the bank. Thank you.

5.5/10I asked for tap water, and was given still water and charged €6 for it. It’s ok that they don’t give out tap water, but to just provide still water instead and charge without telling you is wrong. Avoid this restaurant as who knows what other scams they could pull on their customers.

8/10Nice French inspired cuisine, good location and staff despite some rather too short or too long time between dishes. Maybe the wine pairing is also not that great for the price. However still a nice experience.

10/10Any expectations from reading previous rave reviews were absolutely exceeded :) The staff was very earnest in wanting to provide a 5 star memorable experience to ourselves and to other diner interactions I observed. Due to a busy Saturday night the kitchen staff was utilized to assist wait staff in keeping the service timely… which it absolutely was… including delightful complimentary amuse bouche & intermezzo courses. The execution of the menu here lives up to the restaurant’s mission statement entirely. At times these are lofty ideals that are never realized. Not at Johannes on the night my partner and I were fortunate enough to have enjoyed a truly delightful dining experience. Thank you to all the hardworking team members. Definitely try the Red Velvet Cake for dessert … reimagined and beautifully presented… this choice was not overly sweet and portioned just right. Finally… I hope the palate cleansing berry caramel mini popsicles are always available… because OMG!!!

10/10Wonderful service and delicious thoughtfully prepared meals! It’s on a quieter street by the canal and I sat outside and it was lovely. Inside was nicely decorated with tasteful art. Romantic and serene space. Food was delicious I did the 4 courses and was pleasantly surprised every time! Lastly the manager was very kind and attentive and helped me feel welcomed to Amsterdam my first night of my solo trip. Highly recommend!

8/10I have been here many times, with my wife, my daughter. It has always been excellent. I was in Amsterdam on business and decided to try it alone. I ordered the 5 course tasting menu with wine. I did not get my first course for 20 minutes, and the service was slow over 3 hours. Bread was only offered after the 3rd course and was stale. The matching wines was 2 of the same for 2 different courses. I asked and the waiter didn’t know. The food itself was fine, especially the venison done 4 ways. The space is warm and pleasant. The service was unacceptable and not up to their usual standard. When brought to their attention, they smiles and said they were busy and had “a new computer”. Many restaurants of this level would have apologized, clearly stated it was unacceptable and offered me a drink or small dish on the house. It didn’t seem to cross their mind. I still tipped and may come back. However, I will be carefully reading reviews to see if this very poor service was an exception or is being repeated. I would be interested in other comments on this.
