Eva BuenemannOctober 25, 2013I just fell in love! A great place, amazing food and the Spanish white wine fits perfectly with the grilled makarel!
Jules LNovember 17, 2022Seafood, fish, kibbelings were all excellent and super fresh. Reasonably priced.
Alexander iT.December 5, 2014Octopus was hard, as well as potato. Boiled Lobster is big, but really taste were legs only. Tail had a taste of fried butter.
So nice place for launch. Everything it is very delicious

Andrew SamchenkoNovember 22, 2017Very tasty and fresh oysters and sea food. It is popular place, so very crowded.
Daria TryashinaOctober 17, 2015be ready to wait for at least half an hour. the food is delicious, though honestly mussels can't be compared to what they serve in Brussels..
Oleksandr KovpashkoApril 28, 2017Delicious seafood near Museum square. Definitely worth to be visited.
Ayman HammadNovember 10, 2016Whole lobster is fantastic, mussels are great and the atmosphere is perfect 👍👍👍
Angela ChenJuly 14, 2018Top quality mussels, fish & chips, seafood platter. Great service. Beautiful decor.
- Josh FriedlanderSeptember 2, 2017Unusually good service for Amsterdam. Best lobster soup I've ever had.
LaraMay 4, 2019Food is good, but service needs to improve! We had to ask twice for our side fries and salad, which only came after we were half way done with the food. They didn’t clean up the table until forever.
Ameen AqeelSeptember 12, 2016The fresh cuts and shellfish are very good, but the F&C aren't consistent in quality, service is an area for improvement as they seem disoriented.
El Chikito _September 7, 2013Very good seafood restaurant in town. Always have to wait a little bit but it worth it
Sergey KuzinOctober 4, 2014Very good lobster soup. This place every time is full. That's all you need to know about this place.
Andrea BoieriJanuary 19, 2018No better seafood place in Amsterdam than this restaurant. Great food and service.
DaphneAugust 25, 2013Extremely large seafood platters. Wouldn't order it unless you like every kind shellfish because they have large portions of each that will go unfinished if you don't like the texture/taste.
Hei-Yu TangJuly 27, 2015The seafood here is nice but the quality is not always up to par. Been here a couple of times, sometimes it's better then the other.
Makio ZengDecember 20, 2013It is a good restaurant, however, the standard is getting down. Because it gets popular and the quality of food is not as good as the beginning. It's better to go there on weekdays or quiet time.
ChrisNovember 27, 2017Oysters were amazing. Mussels were good even though they got our order wrong. Pricey and crowded. I would go again
Shaun WestonJuly 28, 2015Smaller version of the restaurant in Spui, where you can get a decent fish and chips (cod).
Alexander ReneuveOctober 15, 2014Great fresh seafood. Fish and chips is also nice, but this place is for real delicious dishes!
FoodieJune 15, 2014The swordfish was large, but insufficiently salted, thus, it's taste was not fully revealed. Way too much oil was poured onto it, given that it was grilled. Liked the salad served alongside
Argyro FasouraJanuary 15, 2014The fruit de mer is delicious !!!!! Definately if I visit amsterdam again I will come
