    Not the usual service; we waited almost an hour for our appetizers; then our mains came before we had finished. Not sure if you were understaffed; but not our usual experience. My husband tried one of the items on the holiday menu; again not up to your normal standards. He had the cod with noodles and the noodles were just mushy. I know this is a busy time and things happen. Have a great day.

    The only slightly negative comment was I found the fish and chips a little mushy. My preference is a more crispy fish

    We had a fabulous time. We ordered an app out of the gate - guac and chips (something quick) bc our group was hungry and it was likely forgotten - bc we had to ask about it - and it was out in 1 min. Not a big deal but that describes the 4 stars

    As usual, we enjoyed our Amsterdam experience. This time we brought some friends who had not been for several years and they were impressed with the ambience, especially the cosy fire, the service and, for the most part, the food. We will be back.
