Café De Koe — Restaurant in Amsterdam

I was here for lunch. Super fast service. Before you realise it, you are done with lunch. Stater was soup, then came the fish and then the desert. There were potatoes as well. I usually don’t like fish cos of the smell. This was different altogether. It felt fresh and had no smell. I actually ate the whole thing. This was so unlike me. Well done.

Be gentle - in your hurry to get people to eat fast and get out - you will spill the soup on the table or even the customer. That might leave not a pleasant experience for some. Just be gentle and you will be just fine. I am giving you 3 stars cos of your fish. It did taste good. Space was rather tight. Too close for comfort...

Places like that still exist? Apparently so. The coffee was the bomb and served with...

Such a lovely spot! The staff at our hotel recommended this restaurant and so glad they did. We walked their on a whim hungry and jet lagged not expecting much.

My husband said it was some of the best chicken satay he’s ever had. This place is definitely loved by locals. We were the only Americans in the place (which we prefer haha) The sea Bass, ravioli, and croquette were...
