★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 292 reviews · from $61

Dine in Amsterdam Central Station’s restored 1885 first-class rooms with a generous three-course meal, historic charm, and city views.

“We never would have known of this restaurant other than through Get Your Guide. Nice ambience and we enjoyed our experience The food quality was uneven. All of my courses were very good but my wife thought her meal tasted like mediocre quality of an American diner restaurant. By pre-purchasing the meal, it was cheaper than ordering the courses separately at the restaurant. Our waitress seemed harried and never brought the wine that I ordered.”
