Kevin Dulin

The Meat and Fish Rijstaffle were absolutely fantastic. Great to try just about everything. I also thoroughly enjoyed the Cendol dessert .

John Penner

Staff was super friendly and welcoming (I was dining on my own and didn't have a reservation , but they found space for me). Get the rice table , so much food and so many flavors!

Rijstafel is fun, but very sweet food catered to a Western audience. Don't expect to have your mind blown w creative flavors. This is fast food , Dutch-Indonesian style. Fun once, wouldn't go often.

Tobias Grönberg

Great varied traditional Indonesian dishes, utilizing the right tastes and flavors. Get the mixed dishes, ristafel, for an excellent introduction. Then return the week after to reprise your favorites.

Lai van Beek

Amazing rijsttafel ! We ordered the meat and the fish rijsttafel . Everything was very tasty. Friendly staff . Cozy and modern restaurant . Make sure to book a table in advance as it can be busy.

Sarah Stiefel

Very nice Rijstaffel experience! The black rice pudding dessert is delicious! To be seated really nicely, ask for a table upstairs or on the entrance level.

Jason H.

Excellent way to sample lots of different dishes. If there are 2-3 people, get one meat and one fish Rijstaffle . Very very good.

Lynn Bakx

I ordered all kinds of small, different Indonesian dishes. Very tasteful! The restaurant has a large capacity, but also very cosy corners for you to indulge yourself into the Indonesian atmosphere.

TRY THE GOAT (incl in selera blauw rijstafel ). If you share an order of rijstafel , you have to pay €10. OR order 1 rijstafel and one main, then take the main home for lunch the next day.

Numuque

one of the best Indonesian restaurants in Amsterdam. stylish and cozy . one should try their rich "rijsttafel " assortment

Sidney Smeets

Great place for Indonesian food , which ironically is a very Dutch experience. Quite expensive and you must make a reservation . They also have a good vegetarian menu . Try a 'rijsttafel '.

Brad T

Fancy but delicious Indonesian. Follow the friendly staff 's reco's but def go for the mixed rice sampler/dish to taste the best of what the restaurant has to offer.

Müge Akkavak

Rice dishes, particularly the fish one is tremendously delicious. However be careful, the dishes are too big, better to share. Certainly recommended

Aaron

Delicious and highly varied rijstaffel. Different presentation than other rijstaffels where dishes are not arranged in order of spiciness . Makes for more adventure!

Kent Zinn

First time eating Indonesian food and this place was fantastic. Don't even think about it and just get the 16-course rice deal. Amazing array of flavors.

Emily Heyward

Fun trendy take on Indonesian. If you’re with a group, get a few different rice tables (fish , meat, veg ) and feast!

Mark Dreger

Upscale atmosphere for an Indonesian restaurant . It's definitely not your typical rijsttafel (if you order that) but each dish is very well-prepared and tasty.

Raghid Moussa

Amazing food, friendly and helpful staff . Best tip is don't order the rice platter alone, it's huge for 1 person :)

Nikola Kajgana

Great indonesian restaurant on nice location. Food is perfect, staff very helpful and superfriendly!! I enjoyed every single bite. Try deserts (paincake is awesome)!

Tripl3t

Everything is delicious. One of top 10 meals of my life! Awesome Chef ! Make reso ahead of time.

Kirstjen Lorenz

Get the full Indonesian rice table , but be prepared to eat a lot. It is fun and delicious, with lots of unique flavors.

Dustin Lee

Rijstafel is worth a try for the experience and visual stimulation. However if you're already familiar with SE Asian flavors, don't expect to be blown away

Ben Drucker

They are super allergy and gluten free friendly . There's a whole menu page with a list of a dozen allergens and every item has a number corresponding to allergens.

David Shammai

Exceptionally good food. Great indonesian curries . Lively rather than quiet atmosphere . Service can suffer if busy. Reservation likely to be needed.

pieter v

So much great tastes! Try their homemade coffee too!

Kristin Kokkersvold

Rijsttafel was yummy. Loved the pandan icecream , perfect small sweet treat after an great meal!

Petya Stoyanova

Delicious food and superb service! We kept getting surprise appetizers and a lovely dessert at the end. I will definitely go back!

Jason Wee

Loved the Vegetarian Rice table ! Decided to come here a 2nd time and ordered the same set on my short trip :)

8PM Reservation

The upstairs is perfect for a little more peace and quiet but it gets hot.

Philip Rijkers

“Rijsttafel ” is a good introduction into Indonesian cuisine . Unfortunately food gets cold fast

Brian Fitzgerald

Great food. We were 6 people and 3 Rijs Tafels was way too much. 2 would likely have been perfect. Don't set your plastic menu on the food warmers!

Anthony Zacharzewski

Very good Indonesian restaurant . Modern and not kitsch. Friendly service , good rijsttafel .

Jules L

Main to share (fish & dragons) was delicious.

Alexandre Munhoz

The meat sampler! It is so good... I wish I had two stomachs...

Lanre Adedokun

Rijsttafel that is to die for...who knew if such a strong Indonesian influence in Amsterdam!

Kristin Ahoi

Food is incredible good. We had the Menu and it's absolutely worth it.

Maria Eugenia Gallero

Great indonesian food . Try rijsttafel ! An amazing experience.

The rijsttafel is inferior to Tempo Doeloe across town , but the appetizers and main dishes are exquisite. Service superfriendly as well .

Paul Hanna

Amazing food - can defo recommend the croquettes to start!

Аrtem Kolganov

You can try a lot of different dishes at once thanks to cool serving

Daisy Zook

We were excited to dine here after reading all the reviews but were so disappointed by the food. There was really nothing outstanding other than the complimentary chips they served. Not impressed

Trond Enger

Try the rijsttafel . Good winelist.

Ash Ty

Delicious Indonesian food , nice ambience and friendly staff .

Daniel Papp

The taster plate was great, although it's not for one person. :)
