👍👍 We had an ultimate Wagyu experience here. We payed 160 p.p excluding drinks and got around 7 courses. Everything was delicious/finger licking, but amount of food was too big for the most of us to handle. But we still tried to finish everything because we already payed:) Meat quality is great but it...

👍👍 I recently dined at Ku Kitchen & Bar, and the experience was truly exceptional. The Chef took the time to explain each dish at our table, adding a personal touch to the experience. The service was attentive and friendly throughout. We enjoyed the Caterpillar Roll, Seafood Bento, King Ku Sliders, and...

👍👍 We went for our anniversary and it was just perfect. We did not expect it to be honest... ended up staying there for 4 hrs enjoying the food and the amazing recommendations of our sommelier Menno. He nailed our flavour palette to perfection and customised the pairings perfectly - even brining sake f...

👍👍 Sad that there was no tonkotsu, but both of our ramen were excellent! If you are used to eat spicy food, their view of the "spicy" is supposed to be medium spicy, but it was more mild then medium. It was still excellent 👌🏻 10/10 would recommend

Traditional Japanese dishes served in a simple, elegant restaurant with a shady terrace.

👍👍 My wife found this amazing small and cosy place where to eat a surprising good Japanese food and we really enjoyed. We took some classic dishes and all were super tasty. I definitely recommend it 💯

Kimono-clad waitresses serve upscale Japanese cuisine in this traditional Okura Hotel restaurant.

👍👍 This place is worth the long but speedy tram journey out of Amsterdam Central. In a quiet residential area this place was suprisingly packed with Brits. Perhaps through word of mouth. It is pan Asian but has a huge sushi menu. We had a sushi platter, some dim sum and then some Bulgogi for main which...

👍👍 Had an incredible chefs tasting menu for $40 which was essentially the entire menu, and left feeling very full (with just enough room for a scoop of gelato). My husband and I though all the dishes were delicious, but the true standout was the eggplant with miso. That dish cannot be missed. Their hom...

👍👍 Amazing Ramen spot in Amsterdam! Great location, cozy ambience and fair prices. Literally one of the best ramen I’ve had in years. I got the spicy one with pork. I also recommend ordering the gyozas and the vegetable dumplings. Great places for smaller groups. Service is quick.

Sushi, maki & tempura, plus wagyu beef teppanyaki cooked tableside, at a streamlined venue.

Creative sushi & sashimi dishes served in an intimate, modern restaurant with relaxed vibe.

😠 Tanuki has gotten so massively bad. The atmosphere is more like a snackbar than a Japanese restaurant. The quality of food, especially the yakatori, meats and fish dishes are poorly cooked. Service is now kids running around with no idea what they are doing with some Mr Miyagi type character keeping...

Sleek noodle bar serving sake & housemade ramen bowls with many toppings in a loungey dining room.

👍👍 Wow, what a fabulous find. Short break to Amsterdam with my son. Fancied something different. From start to finish this was a great experience. Service was great, food, every dish, was amazing. Not rushed. Didn't want the night to end. Thank you. We will be back

👍👍 Delicious fresh and fair ingredients. Wonderfull people, owner(s) and staff who gladly help you with your personalised Yummy Bowl. The Vegan “Rainbowl” 🌈 is simply delicious and I can recommend the homemade lemonade in the summer too! Yummy Bowls experiments with vegan (day)menu items as well, I lo...

👍👍 Amazing! I had to try the Kobe Wagyu at some point, I regret not getting the whole steak. I had it as an appetiser, which was phenomenal. The waitress asked me at some point if it was good, I told her that it was so good I wanted to cry. For main course I had an Argentinian steak. It was great and c...

👍 I had a great dinner there! Food was delicious and the service was perfect! Thanks to the waiter for always checking on us if everything was fine! 🤗 The only small feedback I have is that we found the Ika squid fries a bit too salty, taste was super nice but we had to drink inbetween each bite beca...
