Amazing food and very friendly service. Fine dining with tastes from Brazil at very reasonable prices. We had the 5 course winter menu and every dish was a delight. They offer wine pairing as well as non-alcohol pairing. Highly recommended!

Stunning experience! We've had an amazing 5-course dinner. Every single dish looked gorgeous and tasted absolutely delicious, we think even better than some of the more expensive well known high-end restaurants you'll find in Amsterdam. Also, the staff is super friendly and passionate and the service was perfect. One of the best restaurant experiences we've had in a while, to be honest. The interior is simple but alright, still cozy and the open kitchen is a nice touch. But the food... you should just go and make a reservation here. We will definitely come back!

What a hidden gem in BOLO!! This place is incredible. They offer a tasting menu which they can also do vegan (which is what I had). It was next level good. But the best thing? They also offer a “soft pairing”: non-alcohol drinks they pair with each course. They change their menu every 3 months so my husband and I will definitely be visiting this restaurant 4 times a year (minimum!) from now on. Thanks for an amazing evening Elo Food Based!

A truly wonderful first dining experience! The restaurant has a warm and open atmosphere with an open kitchen. The walls are decorated with art by Amsterdam-based artists, curated to match the seasonal menu—a lovely detail. We had the five-course menu with wine pairings, and every dish was beautifully presented, unique, and the perfect portion. Filipe, our waiter, made the evening even better with his friendly explanations, humor, and great wine suggestions. Compliments to the chef and Filipe for such a special evening—I can’t wait to try the new menu!

Well I was highly suspicious of a consistent 5.0 rating… but just found out why it’s entirely deserved! Unique, delicate and delicious flavour combinations + fantastic service. All without the Michelin price tag. Will definitely be back!!
