    I loved The Pantry! The pea soup was phenomenal. The people that work there were great and the restaurant itself was so charming. 100% recommend!!!!!

    Return visit. Sometimes the second time is less impressive than the first, but no - this place is really excellent. Yes it’s small, but that adds to its charm. The combination dish was superb. And the house beer was an excellent accompaniment. First recommendation I make to friends visiting Amsterdam.

    My meal felt it had been heating up all day: dry caramelised - not in a good way - over cooked cottage pie (Grandmas menu if I remember) My partners meal underwhelming too. I’m left wondering how people rated this venue as consistently high. Our food was mediocre. Staff and ambiance were good though - so our first Amsterdam evening was rescued - just!

    Restaurant the Pantry

    Dear Francesca, thank you very much for your visit to and feedback. I am sorry to hear that you are disappointed in the food. But gladly to hear that you enjoyed the service and hospitality . I do hope you enjoyed our amazing city. Greetings from the Pantry family

    While the staff were very nice, the food was very disappointing. I had Menu 2 - casserole with mashed potatoes. There was only a very very thin layer of ground beef on the bottom. It was mostly just mashed potatoes and cheese. And the oil they used to make this dish tasted rancid which gave it an unpleasant taste. My husband had Menu I with hutspot, kale and sauerkraut mash. Don’t expect these three flavors to jump out. They are basically potato balls in different colors. The main ingredient of these balls is potato. Desserts were nothing to write home about. All in all it felt like this place was overhyped. The only positive was the staff who were very kind.

    Dear Emily, thank you for your visit and comment. I am sorry to hear that the food was disappointing to you. But good to hear you appreciate our hospitality. Greetings from the Pantry family

    We visit Amsterdam on a regular basis both to visit family and to enjoy the city. One place that we include each and every time we are in the city is The Pantry. The food is authentic Dutch food that tastes great, the service is top notch and the atmosphere is wonderful! Make sure to make a reservation or you will spend some time waiting for a table!

    Restaurant the Pantry

    Dear Bo, thank you so much for your visit and beautiful review. Very nice to hear we are on your standard list to visit when you are in town. Hopefully until soon again than. Greetings from the Pantry family

    It was my second visit of "The Pantry" and I had a reservation. For authentic Dutch quisine experience (at least how I expect it) at a mid-price range, I find this place just fantastic. The food is great (I took one of the three course menues), the beers tasty, the ambience rustic with an eye for details and especially the service and the staff is very friendly and professional. I think the waiters were the same as my last visit a year ago and I felt that they really like their job. I Since the place is quite small, the tables are relatively close to each other. It didnt bother me, but for others this might be bothersome.

    Dear David, thank you so much for your visit and beautiful review. Nice to hear you returned a second time. It’s our pleasure to give you a good Dutch food experience. Hopefully until another time. Greetings from the Pantry family

    I had high expectations for this restaurant after reading the reviews of other patrons. The ambiance was pleasant and promising. However, the food was, at best, mediocre. We were quite disappointed. The service was prompt, and the personnel were helpful. However, we felt rather rushed to finish our meal, presumably to accommodate more customers. I had made the reservation three weeks in advance and was anticipating that we would have ample time at our disposal. I was mistaken; we were encouraged to conclude our dining experience as quickly as possible, which made the overall experience rather unpleasant.

    Restaurant the Pantry

    Dear George, thank you for your visit. I am sorry to hear that you are disappointed in your visit. We always try to serve everyone as quick as possible. Also to have another turnover on the table. Most guest don’t mind to stay just 1.5 hours. I am sorry that this felt to rushed for you. With kind regards, Jerome, restaurant the Pantry

    Loved the cozy atmosphere. Food was exactly as advertised. Great Dutch home cooking. I had the Hutsput & meatball. Fabulous. My husband had the Dutch steak & it was really good. Too stuffed to eat dessert! Staff was friendly & accommodating. We accidentally came at 6:30 for a 7pm dinner. Were graciously seated early.
