A Hidden Culinary Treasure: Badhuis Omakase x Sushi Noord

Tucked away in the atmospheric charm of Amsterdam-Noord, Badhuis Omakase x Sushi Noord offers a truly intimate and sensory dining experience that lingers in your memory long after the last piece is savored. If you’ve ever wondered what sushi was meant to taste like—fresh, honest, and unpretentiously perfect—this is where you’ll find your answer.

From the moment you step inside, you’re welcomed not just by the warmth of the minimal yet inviting space, but by the chef’s quiet confidence behind the bar. This isn’t just dinner; it’s an invitation to slow down, watch, and appreciate craftsmanship in its purest form.

The omakase offering consists of 10 pieces, each a unique expression of seasonality, technique, and respect for the fish. Served one by one, directly from the chef’s hand to yours, there’s something deeply personal and grounding about eating this way. No chopsticks, no fuss—just you and the moment.

Let’s talk about the fish. Every piece tells its own story: • A buttery slice of otoro melts on your tongue with a whisper of soy. • The mackerel, aged to perfection, is bold yet clean, followed by a refreshing kiss of citrus. • Scallop, sweet and delicate, is paired with just enough yuzu zest to brighten it like a secret. • A piece of smoked eel, warm and luxurious, balances rich umami with a caramelized edge.

There’s no rush. With each bite, the chef gives you space to breathe, sip, and savor.

And speaking of sipping: the sake pairing is not an afterthought—it’s essential. Each glass is carefully selected to match the flavor profile of the fish you’re tasting. From soft and floral to crisp and dry, the sake elevates the experience without overpowering it. It creates a subtle rhythm between dishes, enhancing the meal without stealing the spotlight.

The magic of Badhuis Omakase is in its simplicity. It doesn’t try too hard—it doesn’t have to. The ingredients are respected, the atmosphere is relaxed, and the service feels like a quiet conversation between you and the chef. This is not a place where you come just to eat; it’s where you come to experience.

Perfect for a special evening or a refined solo moment, this 10-piece journey is a must for true sushi lovers or anyone curious to taste the real thing, far away from soy-drenched rolls and fusion experiments.

We had a reservation for 10 pax yesterday and were warmly received from the get-go. Service was professional, cosy and efficient.. We came for a round of drinks and were given a sweet corner on the terrace.

Terrace provided much shade, and everything was clean.. Tables, seats, floor, bar counter, toilets.. Incredible.

Interior was breezy despite the summer heat because they have an abundance of ceiling fans. Beautiful decor.. They kept a huge portion of a tiled wall from the bathhouse era that lends to a special identity, so unique.

The really cute bathroom downstairs was large and spacious. Sink is in the middle of the open bathroom, and is a communal sink in the shape of a ring, with multiple taps. It was lovely to freshen up on a hot summery day!

They have a diverse drink menu with a selection of beer and wine of course, but many other delicious options too! Cocktails were impressive but they also have cava, homemade ice teas, sodas, and to much more to choose from. We really appreciated the variety as there was something for everyone enjoy.

It is also wheelchair accessible....

We just had such a great time at a lively street party Pride Oost, and one of the highlights was discovering BadHuis a fantastic bar that really stands out for all the right reasons. It has a vibrant, welcoming atmosphere and is open to everyone, which adds to the inclusive and friendly vibe.

One thing that truly impressed us was how clean and well-organized everything was. The gender-neutral bathrooms were spotless, thoughtfully maintained, and a perfect example of how a public venue can be both inclusive and hygienic. It’s a small detail that makes a big difference.

On top of that, the staff were incredibly kind and helpful, attentive without being overbearing, and always ready with a smile. It’s clear that they care about creating a great experience for everyone who walks in.

Bud House is definitely a place worth revisiting. Whether you’re just passing by during a street party or planning a night out, it’s a gem of a spot that gets...
