VENUS & ADONIS, Amsterdam

The service was terrible from the moment we enter the restaurant but we wanted to give the food a chance after reading the positive reviews. In general the food was tasteless and the portions were not right. The worst was the bill. This restaurant is...overrated and the prices are crazy. There are many other better options in the area, so avoid this one!!!More

This place is just incredible.

This place is just incredible. First night we went here we stumbled in the door through a curtain. Staff very quick to find us a table even though we hadn’t booked and it was busy. Within minutes our food arrived. Never had food so good....My husband had steak and eats all over the world said it was the best steak ever! The second night, literally had to come back again! Bit quieter as a Sunday but the taste of that mushroom risotto will live with me forever! Don’t miss this place!More

Atmosphere, friendly service.

Atmosphere, friendly service. We were early so asked if we could already have a drink at the bar while our table opened up. For starters the mixed plate, with great salmon but average oyster. As main my lamb rack was great. Nice touch serving the...main dishes together on a big wooden board. Staff knows their wines well and are happy to advise.More

Random supper

We arrived to the city that evening and our flat was on the next corner. We just stormed in wearily, without any information about the place...what was stuffed with guests. However they made a table for us and gave some extra fast service and really...delicious food. Who whine on beef quality should think about the price, its good meat, prolly local...no, not kobe.More

Family Dinner in Amsterdam

We booked a special reunion family dinner for 8 at this restaurant on our recent visit to Amsterdam. It was recommended by our hotel, The Pulitzer, and did not disappoint. Staff, food and drink were all excellent. Recommend.

COSY DINNER IN AMSTERDAM WITH GOOD PRICES

We booked this restaurant for our New years eve dinner. We were a party of 7 and were seated downstairs at a round table. We all shared various entrees and they were all very tasty. Most of us had steak, lamb or salmon for the...main meal and they were all beautifully cooked. The steaks were very tasty and cooked perfectly, they were also a reasonable price. Most of the other restaurants in Amsterdam I googled wanted nearly double what we paid at Venus and Adonis for a steak. We all had different desserts and nobody complained about any of them. We would recommend this restaurant if you want a tasty dinner in cosy surrounds for a reasonable price.More

An excellent restaurant and bar

Excellent food-- the seasoning was so perfect. We were there the week before Christmas and there were other large parties as well. Even though they were busy, the service was superb and the food was the best

How much can change in a few months

How much can change in a few months. Just visited with my daughter as she is a burger monster. Unfortunately the burger she got was basically raw and when we got it back from asking it to be more cooked we got the one back...with the same bite out of it.... classy. Also, burger came back quite quick and by the looks of it there was a microwave involved. My steak sandwich was fatty and although the taste was ok it was not as good. Burger with fries is basically €20 and for that price it should be amazing and pathetic that one needs to send it back. Would avoid.More
