We were lucky to be able to get a reservation. We ordered the rijsttafel. What a spread and a delight for our palates. Would highly recommend this little gem.

We had been awaiting a full rijstafel as there are none in Boston and Tripadvisor doesn't even list Indonesian as a cuisine. This place did not disappoint, everything was excellent, the food, the service, the friendly staff, the promptness of seating. Highly recommenced.

Interesting food from Indonesia. Some quite spic, but others delicate and fragrant. Menu on the table was quite different to online.

Excellent variety of dishes in rijstaffel and none disappointed. Great service. Restaurant was a little too warm on a very hot evening..

Note: My rating I for “service”, ***** for “fast”, should really be *, for “much too fast”, but there was no such option. We arrived very early, when it was still very quiet. Nevertheless, they came to our table to take our order straight away. Our food arrived almost immediately. The main course - a lamb dish - was good! But I was surprised that I had to pay extra for the accompanying rice (side dish?) and atjar. When we had hardly finished eating, they immediately tried to clear the table, which of course felt like: please leave. Five minutes later, when we were still talking and enjoying the wine, another waiter tried it too. A bit later, the same person cleared it anyway, although we still didn’t want that yet: we had come for a good time, not for the fastest dinner experience ever. Then we tried to order a desert. I asked them to replace the ice cream and chocolate sauce accompanying the pisang goreng by a few drops of pisang ambon liquor (which they had on the menu), but that was “impossible”, so I didn’t order it, but they brought it anyway (the standard version), and the waiter got very annoyed when I refused it. Although we had tried hard to let them leave us alone a bit, to spend some quality time together, we were outside again very quickly. Too quickly.

Lovely spot, delicious rijsttafel, gracious server. Just very slow service: our food arrived an hour after we were seated. Plan on making it an evening and you’ll have a good one.

Delicious food, friendly hosts, cosy informal atmosphere, great for a food lover who prefers the genuine and unpretentious.

Quantity-quality-price ratio was really poor (expensive for tiny portions), also refused to serve us tab water (which is compulsory for any place serving alcohol in the Netherlands) and pressured us to order eat and leave fast throughout our meal. Would not recommend.

people who get a 30% discount are the people who are often very demanding , just go to a restaurant that suits your budget, our prices are transparent, you could have left too, there are so many restaurants in Amsterdam with prices under €15, think carefully about your budget before entering a restaurant, don't be negative

We had a wonderful ‘rice table’ !! It was a pleasure to see the family run business take such pride in their work ethic and presentation of the beautiful meal! We would definitely go back and recommend it to all to enjoy while in Amsterdam

The food was delicious. We ordered the rijsttafel and enjoyed the combination of dishes, they were very well coordinated. The service was average. I highly recommend the place

Een rustig restaurant, gerund door een Indonesische familie. Ook de lokatie is mooi.

The food was exquisite and the ambiance delightful. After we had finished our meal, the owner/waiter brought us dessert menus. When he returned, he had our check and said he was sorry but our table was booked for 7:30. We could not have dessert and we must leave. It was exactly 7:30 and we had arrived on time for our reservation at 6:30. If it was true that there was another reservation, we should have been told when we arrived that we would not be able to stay more than an hour. Many of the other diners witnessed this and were appalled. We have been to this restaurant several times over the years, but cancelled plans to return the next evening.

Last visited here about 6 years ago. On this visit, only had one night in Amsterdam so this was the one restaurant we wanted to come back to. The food is incredible. The rijstafel is full of amazing flavours. The hosts were very welcoming. Can't recommend this enough - but make sure you book! We will be back next time we are in Amsterdam.

Authentic Indonesian rice table, great location steps from the Marriott and near the museum quarter, definitely a lot better than the Indonesian restaurant located at the flower market, I was raised in Holland , my grandparents were stationed in Indonesia, so I grew up knowing what a delicious rice table should taste like. Reservations are definitely needed.

Good food and Excellent service. Good location in Amsterdam Zuid. We also had a nice cocktail which was refreshing with a nice bite. Worth vistiting, also pricewise, good value for money, in over expensive Amsterdam.
