Oma Ietje — Restaurant in Amsterdam

i Love.. I LOVE the food, I have been there many times , love the bulgogi fries and we recently tried its vegetarian alternative: the eggplant balado; hands down the best dishes there. However, the options for cocktails are quite limited and the beers don't have as much variety and are on the pricier end. Anyway, the food is great, however, the risotto could use a bit more salt perhaps, but the seabass dish was done perfectly. Also, the service is always top-notch, the waitresses are the sweetest people ever!! Moreover, 3-4 dishes to share for 2 people is more than enough, unlike the recommended 3 dishes per person on the menu haha. Lastly, the location is fantastic, right in front of the metro, plus it is always bustling with people around dinner time so dont forget to make a reservation! but it usually freer...

On first approach it looks like you are going to eat inside a shipping container. Don't let that put you off because inside the atmosphere is cosy with lots of wooden beams. The food was so good, I came back for a second night. The beef stew was amazing. Not too spicy but with a paprika induced kick reminiscent of goulash. Served piping hot with crusty artisan bread. Tonight I had it along with an apple beet salad which had an amazing combination of flavors. Another revelation was the Dark and Stormy cocktail which had subtle flavors that only come from loving preparation. This is a great place and the locals know it. The place was busy and lively, I got the only table for one available, so it might be best to make a reservation. Oh and don't tell anyone else...

I visited this Amsterdam restaurant and found the food to be quite good in terms of taste and presentation. The dishes were well-prepared and flavorful, which initially made for a pleasant dining experience. However, I must mention a significant concern: we discovered a mouse inside the restaurant during our visit. This was obviously very troubling and raises serious questions about hygiene standards. While the food itself was enjoyable, this incident overshadowed the entire experience and makes it difficult for me to recommend the establishment until proper pest control measures are clearly in place. I hope the management addresses this issue promptly, as the culinary quality deserves better...
