While normally we say thanks for comments here on Trip Advisor not much to say for your comment. No details really given.
It is small restaurant as noted in other guests comments, but the food I think is much better than average and it seems many other Trip Advisors would agree with me.

This was our best meal while in Amsterdam. It is a small place, and the service was a little slow, but the food was amazing. Reservations are highly suggested.
Dear jwfla,
Thanks for taking the time to post a review here on Trip Advisor for other travellers to see.
We are glad you enjoyed your meal. Sounds like you were here on a very busy evening, by the way you mention slow service and small place.
But also you pointed out ... "food was amazing". I should make the...

Not fussy or formal in decor, this restaurant saves all the bells & whistles for the food. The food is fresh and good (though my pea and fava bean salad oddly had no fava beans), the portions ample, and the prices not unreasonable for Amsterdam. Very friendly and easy service. A good find.
Dear JHL55,
Thanks so much for your review here on Trip Advisor.
You give a very good review of the place and what we have to offer. I also want to say thanks for the note about the Fava Beans....I have followed up to make sure that we get the dish right. There is no excuse for that.
We hope...

Our host at Boogaard's B&B recommended this restaurant for us and we were very happy we followed his recommendation - it was the best meal we had in 25 days in Europe. From the moment we arrived, everything was just perfect. The staff was very friendly and helpful with wine and food recommendations - I had the scallops as a...

Dear Jugazolia,
Thanks so much for your kind review. With such a positive review you leave us a big challenge to deliver to to other Trip Advisor guests.
The two starters you had are ones that have been on the menu for awhile and are also two of my favorites. The cod and quail are also nice main courses.

During a week's stay in Amsterdam we ate at several different restaurants in Central. Seasons was by far the best. We particularly appreciated the freshness of the food. The spring pea and bean salad with asparagus and avocado was delightful. The veggies with the two mains were cooked just right, something that is the mark of a good kitchen. Service...

Seasons has a special rate between 5 and 6 pm. Two meals for the price of one. The food was delicious and the service was very pleasant. With the special the cost of the meal was very affordable.
Dear Annekeray,
Thanks for taking time to post a quick review here on TripAdvisor for others to read.
While you mention the Early Bird Special, we also think our regular price fixed menu is also quite affordable.
If you get back to Amsterdam we hope you have a chance to visit again.
Kind regards

The food was modern cuisine with a mixture of modern western food as well as ethnic influences. The helpings are large and all dishes come with...

Glad to hear that you enjoyed the Spring Menu as the last time you were in you were waiting on it...just like we were all waiting for Spring!
Plenty of Spring Vegetables on the menu and the passion fruit curd with dessert has been a big...

A fabulous meal with great service. As a veggie in a party of four I am usually hard pressed to get a meal of a standard to the meat eaters, esp outside UK. However this meal was totally fabulous. We can't recommend it highly enough. May end up going back tomorrow!
Dear Polly 757,
Thanks so much for taking the time out of your schedule to post a review here on TripAdvisor for others to see.
We are glad to hear that you had a fabulous meal and that the service was also great. We do have a couple of vegetarian options and if that is not enough there is always...
