Sapporo — Restaurant in Amsterdam

Best teppanyaki in town! The restaurant is small with only 3 teppanyaki open kitchen (all seats face the teppanyaki chef) but gives a really cosy ambience. Despite having outdoor seating for sushi lovers, it's not practical to sit outside over winter. The staff are friendly and they know their stuff for e.g what to order and what drinks goes together. Always attentive and willing to help for example taking the meat out of the lobster claw and how to eat the miso soup properly. Started with sushi appetizer and moving on to the main course. We ordered the Sapporo set and Tokyo set, I can say that the lobster, salmon, scallop, lamb chop, and beef tenderloin was cooked to perfection and delicious. Very juicy and succulent, melts in my mouth. I savored every bite of it. However, the beef roll was a hit and miss, was cooked too well. One particular thing i liked was the homemade sauce condiments, the sesame sauce was a good complement to the food. The dessert was quite an entertaining show with fire and all, loved it how the crepe pancake was made from scratched!

All in all, it's a highly recommended place especially to celebrate special occasions. Make a reservation before you go, place seems to be pretty popular even on Sunday night, not sure how it is...

This is probably the best teppanyaki I've been to, and I've been to many all over the world. I first went here with my wife and friends in 2019 and it was amazing, from the food, to the service and atmosphere. From then It became the standard that we compared all teppanyaki restaurants to and none have lived up to here.

I've found myself in Amsterdam on business twice in the last 6 weeks and both times I've made reservations here. The food and service are still the same high quality level even though the staff has completely changed since 2019.

The atmosphere is really about luck as it's highly dependent on who your fellow diners are. If you book a whole table for a party then you'll be fine. But if you book as a couple, the atmosphere is only as good as the other dinners on the table. This is all part of the teppanyaki experience and it's the same rule of thumb wherever you go. We've been lucky most of the time to have fun and friendly fellow diners.

It's a fun experience which is very social and be ready to be entertained by your chef and make new friends with your...

We had 3 different kinds of menu. The receipt is in the last part of the photos if you wanna check it out.

Food was okay, it was a bit too salty for my taste. They are flexible with what you prefer. Although, they do rude remarks like when we wanted our wagyu “well done” someone said “it is a waste”. Part of our companions, their culture doesn’t include eating raw meat. they did a couple of mistakes in our order, but it was nothing that bad, like putting the dish of someone in someone else’s plate.

Service: was low bec of 2 reasons if you are looking for a place where the chef talk about about the food they serve this is not the place for it. we were in the table where they pass all the dirty dishes and raw meats/seafood. The entire time our chairs was getting pushed back or there was a dish on top of our heads. I was on the look out the entire time. This was a really bad experience for me the whole night. I wish they can improve on this.

If you have seafood allergies: they cook meat & seafood together if you order both, so need to be...
