Fancy some fancy food in Amsterdam? The very stylish Arca restaurant has you covered. The food was exceptional, and the service was attentive without being intrusive. However, back to the food. The attention to detail in the presentation is clear. The dishes all tasted as beautiful as they looked as well and, just as important, the texture had not been neglected either. There are some unusual flavours on the menu, particularly within the desserts. However, don't let that put you off. Occasionally my taste buds were confused, but they were always delighted.

I dare you to take your significant other to this culinary delight. Located across from Central Station in Amsterdam, the vibe is right. The food is better. My friend and I took advantage of the 80 euro per person menu. It seemed like we would enjoy endless courses of dishes inspired by land and sea. Since I know the menu will change soon, I am saying that Arca's team really know how delight your taste buds with their artistic and high-class flare. Abrigado!!! I hope I spelled that right.

In addition, every staff member was attentive to providing great service. They all worked as a team to deliver a wonderful experience.

Finally, the craft cocktails are amazing.

Thank you for being wonderful hosts. I will return for their new menu, coming soon.

Stopped by for lunch during the week and it was really nice. The food was delicious even though it was not their dinner menu. Service was very friendly, but it was quite slow for some reason. We waited 45 minutes to get the first course, but we got free snacking almonds to keep us entertained. The restaurant is part of the hotel and it's pretty spacious. I'd love to come again for the dinner and try out the chefs menu.

The restaurant is very closed to our hotel! The ambiance is good but nothing special, it’s artsy , the service is good! The filtered water is expensive at $4.5 a person, the foods are Asia inspired fusion Portuguese, maybe I have had better so they don’t impressed me, it’s ok! The veal cheers are the best, soft and tender, the sea food rice is nice , the fish dish recommended by the server is soso, but it’s supposed to be their signature dish! We are too stuffed to try their desserts!
