Nice ambience. Beautiful cutlery and tableware. The inside is like old wooden Dutch pubs. All dishes were simple heartwarming and delicious. Simple but very satisfying food. Homemade vinaigrette sauce was top. Lamb was melting in our mouths. Dessert was also amazing. Mocktail was supreme. The only regret was the bread. Definitely not worth the price and no toast bread can be better than traditional bread with good crust served with butter. There are different options for course menus and good a la carte options.

Great dinner spot. Food had plenty of flavor,  we were surprised by a mussel soup with tomatoes and the caviar pasta, the bread is worth a try.
For dinner they offer 3 different menus with some options to change.
Waiters are extremely nice, place is tiny. Amsterdam standard prices I would say.
