Bar Kaspar — Restaurant in Amsterdam

I booked a table for 6 and another for 3, as it was not possible to book for a bigger group online. They then called me saying it’s not possible to have both tables next to each other. Hence I called back after few minutes. to cancel the reservation as obviously we all wanted to be seated together, but they told me that they figured a way and that it is all sorted (great!) When we arrived there the tables were completely split (one at the back of the restaurant and another one at the front)! I explained to the waiter the background but he insisted that this is the only solution for now and otherwise I can leave! I asked why they didn’t call me in advance to notify me, but they didnt have an answer. It was so arrogant that two friends from the group decided to leave and join us back only for drinks later. When they came back we wanted to add two chairs to our table (as the waiter told us when we first arrived that we can try to squeeze all on a table for 6). The two friends came back only for a drink and then the waiter started to be difficult again saying we cannot add chairs, which is not in line to what he initially told us! so we eventually had to split! This is another level of unprofessional service.

Also we ordered starters and then mains, they had the decency of bringing everything together. So our table was overcrowded and you couldnt enjoy your starters warm. Ridiculous and very disappointing.

I do not recommend except for a simple...

We visited Bar Kasper in Amsterdam and the first thing that stood out was the atmosphere. The place feels relaxed, casual, and has a really nice vibe that makes it perfect for hanging out with friends or just having a laid-back evening. It works well as both a bar and a restaurant, and the energy of the space is definitely one of its strong points.

When it comes to the food, however, it didn’t really surprise us. The menu sounds creative and the prices suggest something a bit more special, but the dishes were pretty average. Nothing bad, just not particularly memorable. For example, the soup was fine, and the snails were decent, but overall the food didn’t match the expectations set by the descriptions.

Service was probably the weakest part of the experience. We had to ask for things several times before they arrived, and one of our dishes was actually forgotten, which meant we had to wait longer than expected. The staff wasn’t rude, but definitely not attentive.

In the end, I would recommend Bar Kasper more as a spot for a quick meal, a couple of drinks, or a casual beer with friends rather than a place to go for the food itself. The vibe makes it...

My fiancee and I went on 20 Aug and had a good experience. The neighborhood is lively without being too noisy, the seating is all outdoor unless weather does not permit. The service was good and relatively quick considering it was a Friday evening. On to food and drinks! Appetizers were delicious! Pictured are the kaasengels(fried cheese rolls) and tatsuta (fried chicken pieces), of which we loved the tatsuta, which was made from the dark chicken meat and was very juicy crispy and flavorful. For drinks we ordered the dark n stormy and the Sicilian goose and both of those were well made and tasty, though a bit light on the alcohol. Entrees were the black Angus burger with cheese and bacon and the steak and frites. Both were excellent, the sauce that comes for the steak is a great complement, though the steak is good on its own. The burger was great and I'd definitely...
