    Had eaten in Red on a previous visit to Amsterdam and returned because we had enjoyed it so much. It didn’t disappoint. Food, service and staff were all top class.

    Definitely recommend the Tuna tartare. Perfect mix with avocado and wasabi. Big & generous serve. Best tuna tartare i ever had. The scallop starter is also of fine dining quality. Anyway, superb service , superb ambient and excellent food.

    Best steak we’ve ever eaten. Can’t recommend this more. Ribeye to share with yummy crispy fries, butter, sauce and tomatoes. We’re 100% coming back

    The food was above expectations! The meat was very well done, but especially the 'side dish' of grilled vegetables was delicious. It was grilled in their oven, the aubergine had the perfect Middle Eastern smoke taste and they even added goat cheese. The mocktail was tasty and different. The creme brulee was nice and creamy. Only thing I would recommend for the owners: put real flowers in the vases on the tables and have the ceiling light dimmed.

    I have been there before and therefore I chose to bring my friends to what I expected to be a great experience. I checked online and saw they had open tables, so I decided to head in without a reservation not to have to have them check and refresh the booking system. Host said they had no availability without reservation, I went then outside and booked a table, which he found to be super rude (it’s not, nowhere in the world) and he purposefully and evidently treated us with disdain and contempt throughout the dinner, to the point that one of my friends confronted him about it and instead of reasonably speaking, the man came outside and insulted us. Sucks to have good food and bad people. Will come back when the guy is gone.

    Had a lovely dinner to celebrate my birthday! Tasty l, flavourful starters ans dissolving in your mouth mains, topped with a tasty dessert! Great experience and attentive service. The only thing is that I expected to see a bit more than just a piece of steak and a tomato on my main plate. Of course, fries were fraught as a side, but would be good to know that there are no vegetables on the side, unless you order a salad separately. But the steak is exceptional!

    The waiter was a bit dismissive towards us, every time we called him to order he waives us away and said he will come back later. This happened a couple of times. At the end we ordered with another waitress, who was very nice. There were very long waiting times for the food and only after waiting a long while would someone come over ad tell us, that what we ordered was already finished. Happened with the oysters and then afterwards happened with the main dish as well, after one hour and 20 mins of waiting. You can imagine how hungry we were. We were always the last table to get their food. Not sure if bad luck or what was the reason. The food itself was okayish, but not the quality we are used to at Red. Hopefully the next time will be better.

    Great Atmosphere, Excellent Food and Service I recently dined at Red in Amsterdam and had a wonderful experience. The atmosphere is elegant and cozy, making it a perfect spot for a relaxing evening. The service was attentive and friendly, and the food was exceptional – everything from the steak to the lobster was cooked to perfection. The wine selection also complemented the dishes beautifully. My only suggestion would be to update the upholstery on the booths, as some of the seating was stained. Other than that, everything was fantastic, and I would definitely recommend Red for a great dining experience in the heart of Amsterdam.

    It was a busy night and RED did not appear to be ready for it. The euro 45 lobster tail was overcooked and the euro 40 bone-in sole was drowned in a lemon cream sauce that made it mush. The house red and white from Langueduc were both good and good value for money. The Gin and Tonic in a large glass mug with cucumber and red pepper corns was excellent. While there were long pauses between staff interactions and deliveries, everyone was very nice. The ambience is pleasant. RED is well located a short walk from the Leidseplein nightlife. We might give it a 2nd chance.

    I chose this restaurant after a friend recommended it to me. Today's recommended dish was excellent, and not only was the food excellent, but the service from the staff was also perfect. I will definitely visit again.

    Usually this restaurant is fine yesterday it felt like McDonalds. Super fast service We mentioned we wanted to start with oysters than a second starter and after that main course. They brought all starters at the same time and kept on pushing to serve maincourse it felt so rushed and not appropriate for those prices. They forgot the fork deal. Sloppy service for such high prices

    My husband and I chose this restaurant at random because they were listed on The Fork. Some reviews on Google were not so favourable so we went with no expectations and boy were we pleasantly surprised. The food was tasty, the portions were just right and the service was five star. Thanks to Donato for treating us like royalty. We highly recommend the lobster, foie royale and scallops. The oysters were amazing as well.

    The 600 gr. rib eye to share is really excellent. The waitress was very friendly and helpful and served quickly on our request, since my friend had another appointment. The ambiance is great, both inside and outside. Especially on this very warm day (29 degrees at time of our dinner) it is really nice to set outside close to the canal and feel a breeze.

    Been here before and have thus far never been let down. The two times before I had several courses (which were all great). This time we had just main dishes, the burger. LOVED IT! Asked to add some grilled bacon to both burgers as I saw it on the menu (with another dish) and they added it without any extra charges. One of the best burgers I’ve had - mine was baked rare; exactly as asked. Overall it was super cheap with the 50% off. Definitely doing this again soon.
