This wine bar has a huge collection of wines. They have quite a few wines by the glass and also a great collection of bottles. They had some interesting selections, like a dry Furmint and a white wine from the Rioja region, which we had never tried before. The best part was the food. We were pleasantly surprised by how good every dish we ordered was. They paired greatly with the wines we tried. The service was very friendly, and the sommelier gave us a lot of details about the region and how the wine was produced. Overall, a great wine bar in Amsterdam. I highly recommend it, and we will be back soon.

A cozy restaurant focused on wine in Amsterdam with a friendly ambiance. Great option for a small dinner or an aperitivo. The menu is very creative and the dishes are really well made with fresh ingredients. The bone marrow was our favorite, highly recommended. From the dessert the fried milk is also a great option for a light but sweet end to the meal. We were happy with the service as well and overall we had a great experience.

Their focal point is the extensive wine menu though, and given the location their wines are all very affordable, compared to most other places in Amsterdam. We will go back for sure to try out more dishes and wines.

Friendly, helpful staff with picking thru their extensive wine list.  Despite having an exceptional wine list, the food outshines the wine choice.  The chef deserves massive accolades for the dishes.  If you like wines, stop by, but if you like food, don't miss out.
