Fantastic experience! I went with friends for brunch and I had poached eggs, fried polenta sticks, and carrot juice: all delicious. Our waitress Christian was amazing: attentive, friendly, and gave us great recommendations. Highly recommend

I absolutely loved this place! I was waitlisted for a dinner reservation and was lucky enough to secure a spot on my last day in Amsterdam. I was so excited to try it because of all the amazing things I’d heard, and it truly lived up to the hype.

Everything I tried was absolutely delicious. The appetizers were divine, and the pastas were incredible—I only wish I had more room to try even more dishes! Unfortunately, I get full pretty quickly, but every bite I had was pure perfection. The tiramisu was another highlight: not only was it delicious, but the portion was quite generous. I thought I could finish a slice on my own, but it was almost too much (in the best way).

The staff were all amazing—so kind, attentive, and genuinely caring. They made sure we were enjoying our meal and checked in regularly, which added to the wonderful experience. The guy who took care of us was especially great!

The ambiance was also a standout. The intimate interior makes it feel like the perfect spot for a date or a special dinner. I can’t wait to come back the next time I’m in Amsterdam! Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for an unforgettable dining experience.

The food and the service were great. Christian who served us was very attentive and friendly. We tried the Tagliatelle with artichoke and chestnuts and another pasta dish with anchovies. Both were delicious.

Was very excited when I found out that Little Collins opened their sister restaurant! Decided to go for dinner on a weekday night and really enjoyed the vibe and food. Tried the lamb to share, pumpkin/mascarpone tortellin for me, and seafood chittara for my friend. The portions were quite small and the prices are quite on the expensive side but I expected that so overall I'd recommend for a nice dine-out experience with friends.

An unbelievable surprise discovering this gem of a spot with an exceptional overall experience. They offer the most creative and gourmet brunch dishes and cakes, paired with the kindest service and ambiance.

Our biggest challenge was finding the time on our trip to return for their wine bar dinner and their desserts! :)
