I am not vegan nor vegetarian but I would definitely recommend this place to fellow meat eaters because it’s a culinary experience worth doing. I was not familiar with some of the ingredients and flavours but everything I had was particularly tasty and positively surprising. The restaurant is simple and welcoming, the staff very friendly and knowledgeable, explaining all the ingredients you’re about to eat (I bet you will not remember half of them by the time the presentation is over, just nod and smile)..the chef is clearly creative and talented, overall it was a great experience. Maybe the only downside in my personal opinion is the price compared with the portions size. I’m definitely not used to the vegan/vegetarian world and clearly what I was served was very elaborate and complex, but I found the portions too small for myself, perhaps this is something to consider..

Our favourite restaurant in Amsterdam. Been twice now and they never dissapoint. Service is great and the waitresses are knowledgeable and passionate about the food. And the food is truly next level. I love a good steak or good ribs, but would not give up the chance to go back here everytime they refresh their menu.

We had the vegan surprise menu. Everything was great, except that the sauce for the main course was very bitter. But the chocolate mousse for dessert I could have every day. It was a wonderful experience. The atmosphere and decor inside is warm and romantic. We would definitely go again.

Found De Waaghals by accident in the Pijp and really glad I did. I came with some vegetarian friends, and we loved every dish. Really innovative, delicious dishes that will also impress carnivores. Also good value for the quality, we had the set vegetarian menu for €39, vegan options also available. Great experience!

Hidden gem in Amsterdam, one of the best vegetarian restaurants I have visited. Well prepared & original vegan-vegetarian food. The jackfruit Rendang hit the spot...don't mind the fish on the pictures. He travels around with me on Instagram @thesituationltd 😀

Whenever we see an exclusively vegetarian/vegan restaurant we like to give it a try and this one was 10 out of 10. Amongst the best! The food was amazing and the waitresses were very kind. Absolutely recommended (but maybe not for huge appetite though).

(Translated by Google) One of the best vegetarian restaurants we have eaten. Food was delicious. Nice atmosphere, friendly people, what more do you want ??? (Original) Een van de beste vegiatarisch restaurants waar we gegeten hebben. Eten was heerlijk. Leuke sfeer, vriendelijke mensen, wat wil je nog meer???

Probably the most creative and delicious plant based resto in Amsterdam. The food experience, colours, ingredients, flavours and service are exceptional. Great ambiance and super friendly staff 😎🌱

Hands down the best restaurant in Amsterdam/the world. The staff are incredibly lovely and know so much about the wonderful food they serve you. We had the 4 course vegan menu (my 3rd time choosing this) and it was excellent. So nice to have a seasonal menu every time! Could not recommend it any more highly!

Wow! Delicious and flavorful, vegetarian food. Cozy atmosphere and nice staff. Every element of the dish had it’s own flavor/spices and everything was combined very well. I usually take the “crazy” dishes and I was not disappointed this time. This is definitely one of the best vegetarian restaurants I’ve eaten.

I am not a vegetarian 🌱but I do occasionally eat veg/vegan food to help balance my diet. The food here was so yummy 😋 that I had to stop myself from eating to fast. I would highly recommended the soup and rice pudding coconut desert. I will be back again 👍

Fabulous fixed menu meal! I got the vegan version and was blown away by the seamless pairings of food combinations. Everything was light & healthy. Great staff. Great red wine too! Highly recommend

Absolutely wonderful experience for a vegetarian in the town! We chose a three course menu one of us Vegan and another Vegetarian. Before the food arrived, waitress asked for any vegetable aversions or allergies which was really nice. Each course was beautifully presented and waitress explained to us what was served and Ingredients of it each time. Food was really delicious and the taste was nuanced and balanced. Wonderful food, great knowledgeable staff and beautiful cozy setting. I would recommend it 10/10

Organic vegan food. Amazingly delicious. Must go. Good ambiance nice friendly service. Located in a good street. 3 course menu 30 euro. We ordered 4 different meals for all 3 courses so we could share. Best to make a reservation.

One of the best restaurants in Amsterdam! This food is culinary and art masterpiece! They have 3-4 courses options. Everything is veryyy delicious. I also liked people who work here, they are friendly. It could be busy so it’s better to book a table on their website.

Yummy vege/vegan options! Good vibe and good service and not too hipstery/pretentious! Also reasonably priced at 30 Euros for a three course dinner. Come and dine here!

One of the best meals in town, happens to be vegan! Everything we tasted tonight was wel prepared, beautiful and surprising. We choose to share a vegetarian and vegan 4 course meal to compare every course. The vegan options won in 3 cases. But everything was super tasteful. The staff was friendly and well informed about the dishes and the wines matched seamlessly with the tastes. Go To Tip when looking for a adorable, vegetarian/vegan dining experience in Amsterdam.

It was a great experience! This restaurant offers only 3 or 4 surprise courses that are either vegetarian or vegan. But they were all very delicious! We loved the variety and the unique flavours of each dish. Something truly special!

Overal an ok experience. The two starter courses were decent but we were left disappointed with the mains. I’m not sure serving half a roast onion with an assortment of creams as the main course was a wise culinary decision. The dish as a whole was sweet and lacked textures that were pleasing, it left me quite befuddled. The wines were better than the food, service was attentive.

Great restaurant! The dishes were full of interesting and delicious flavor combinations, after four dishes we were really full. I'm not a vegetarian, but I didn't feel the lack of meat. Wonderful atmosphere, excellent service - very accessible, but at the same time professional and with a lot of knowledge about the dishes and wines served. Definitely better than many other fine dining restaurants in town! I recommend it to all my friends now and I will definitely come back.

Delicious high quality food. Loved the beet and potato rosti and was so happy to be able to try a vegetarian version of a bitterballen.

Amazing food, service and atmosphere, even recommended if your not vegetarian like me.

(Translated by Google) Very tasty food and great service! Everything is prepared so that you don't miss the meat. How cool is that? 😊 Highly recommended! (Original) Heel lekker eten en fijne bediening! Alles wordt zo bereid dat je het vlees niet mist. Hoe gaaf is dat? 😊 Een aanrader!

Wonderful food and experience, but the price of the water (that they just offer like aparently courtesi) is ridiculous.

(Translated by Google) Great food and very friendly staff - definitely worth a visit! (Original) Tolles Essen und sehr freundliches Personal - auf jeden Fall einen Besuch wert!

Incredible experience. Surprised it doesn’t show up more on veggie places to eat in Adam! Cosy date vibe. Full of flavor. A must for any veggie/vegan in Amsterdam. Great selection of bio and vegan wines too

An experience we will never forget. The food was incredibly tasty with very particular, super fresh and organic ingredients. The miso butter served with bread was a delight. They serve a 3 or 4 courses menu that varies regularly (vegetarian or vegan) so it's always a surprise. They also have a good selection of organic wines. The staff is lovely, they take the time to explain in detail all the dishes and make sure everything is ok throughout the service. Lovely atmosphere all around. Will definitely recommend and go back in the future!

Likely the best vegetarian restaurant in Amsterdam. Absolutely lovely cuisine, with high end techniques and ingredients. Highly recommended, even if you’re not vegetarian of course!

One of the best vegan chef’s menus I’ve ever had and phenomenal service! Will definitely go again when I’m back in the city.

I believe that was the best restaurant experience that me and my friends ever had. Dishes are incredible, they look and taste amazing! I recommend this place especially to people with allergies - the staff is really caring and open to customise food for you. Definitely worth visiting!! 🙆🏼‍♀️

What a lovely experience, they had two different types of tasting menus, one vegetarian and one vegan, both were spectacular. The vegan corn and zucchini ceviche had the best marinade I ever tasted, the barley risotto with taleggio was really creamy and well balanced and both desserts were the perfect closure. This place is a great example that you can recreate and revive popular and loved dishes by using other ingredients, more nutritious and sustainable, that makes you feel full and light at the same time.

Such a fun concept I'd never experienced before. The restaurant works by allowing you to select how many courses you want and then you let them know any dislikes. And then your food is brought to you as a surprise! Certainly takes out the stress of making decisions.

This was a lovely experience!! It’s so rare to eat at a restaurant led by a truly inspired chef! This was truly the best meal we had in Amsterdam. Vegetable forward! What a delight! The flavors were wonderfully composed. The only dish we could’ve left was the amuse bouche.. the rest was beautiful. I did the 4 course tasting, the main was Polenta with edamame and roasted garlic purée. Delicious! I’m still thinking about the roasted Fennel starter.

We came here for my birthday and really enjoyed our dinner. The staff was really nice, and helpful. The menu was very tasty and prepared with love. The chefs use seasonal vegetable. The plates were also beautifully dressed. You can choose a veggie or a vegan menu. A must try when in Amsterdam ;) I

Enjoyed a 5 course meal with wine arrangement and everything was absolutely amazing. Every meal was prepared with so much detail and the tastes were incredible. The service was equally great. All dishes are explained with passion. Would recommend to anyone for a lovely evening of dining.

Spontaneous visit ended as a delightful evening! The restaurant has a genuine and truly warm atmosphere. We felt taken care of and spoiled every bit through our evening. We choose for the chefs menu- a surprise courses with wine pairing. The dishes were lovely, but what made it great was their selection of wines.

Creative delicious food, peaceful ambience, super friendly joyful staff - what’s not to love about De Waaghals. In the 4 odd years that we lived in Amsterdam, we frequented De Waaghals literally every month for their FANTASTIC tasting menu. We have never once been disappointed by their ingenuity of mixing a variety of flavors and serving such a diversity of cultures on a plate. The music and ambience is so relaxed and the staff is so hospitable and friendly. Their menu keeps changing and the ingredients are super fresh. HIGHLY RECCOMEND to visit at least once if you are in Amsterdam and to put this on your frequently visited list if you live in Amsterdam. It has certainly been among our Top 3 Fav restaurants in Amsterdam ! Thank you De Waaghals for being such a special part of our lives :)

Great food and lovely staff!

Absolutely outstanding kitchen. Paradise for vegetarian once. Sumptuous courses and the Polish chef. We gad wonderful evening there and will be black for sure. I’ m absolutely in love 👍🏻🍒🍽

(Translated by Google) Delicious refined and special food! Recommended! Also very nice service! (Original) Heerlijk verfijnd en bijzonder eten! Aanrader! Ook heel fijne bediening!

Lovely little place. Kind staff. Very good food.

The food here is exquisite. The gnocchi was not exactly what I was expecting but was extraordinarily delicious nonetheless. Will definitely be coming here again if I ever return to Amsterdam

I've been now three times, each time had a different menu, and each time the service and food were phenomenal. Such interesting combinations of ingredients. Today, we ordered the entire menu and shared it all, and especially enjoyed the cucumber tartare, BBQ black beans, and green curry.

(Translated by Google) Tasty, cozy, original, good service, healthy. (Original) Lekker, gezellig, origineel, goeie service, gezond.

Fantastic food, and the waiters/waitresses were very attentive, kind and went above and beyond to make this a great dinner experience

Very delicious, lots of options and it's quite affordable! Very nice staff as well.

(Translated by Google) Excellent vegetarian restaurant, impeccable service, we more than appreciated. Sophisticated and tasty cuisine, a must do if you are in Amsterdam :) (Original) Excellent restaurant végétarien, service impeccable, nous avons plus qu'apprécié. Une cuisine recherchée et goûteuse, à faire absolument si vous passez à Amsterdam :)

Great and cozy place, excellent food. Taste and presentation are worthy of a Michelin star chef but with prices of a normal restaurant. A three course menu for 30€, unbelievable. This is a must go place in Amsterdam for biological vegetarian and vegan food.

Vegan heaven... Don't even think about just pop in and try...

(Translated by Google) It was a party to eat at the Waaghals. They have a nice (small) card. We were 4 people and had chosen different dishes, everything looked beautiful and tasted excellent. The ambiance is quiet and the service pleasant. We will definitely be back. (Original) Het was een feestje om bij de Waaghals te eten. Ze hebben een mooie (kleine) kaart.

(Translated by Google) Very nice vegetarian restaurant. Nice atmosphere, cozy and calm. Nice wait staff who are friendly and happy to help. Dishes are good and innovative and a good price-quality ratio. Perhaps for the really big eaters among us on the smaller side. I would definitely come back here.

Gerechten zijn goed en vernieuwend en een mooie prijs kwaliteit verhouding. Wellicht voor de echte grote eters onder ons aan de kleinere kant. Ik zou hier zeker terugkomen.

Always a delight to dinner at De Waaghals. Hands down one of my favourite restaurants in the Netherlands. I'm not a vegetarian for find myself enjoying all the dishes here regardless of having no meat. It also doesn't try to create near dishes with vegetables, but rather just makes really amazing tasting vegetarian or vegan dishes. Dishes are always on point, very balanced flavours, perfect level of creativity and gastronomy without being pretentious. The menu (set menu of either vegetarian or vegan option) changes according to the produce of the season and you can always expect to be pleasantly surprised with the composition of the dishes. You can tell that the one creating the menu loves food. The service is great although on this visit it was a bit off one of the services staff, but we all have our bad days. The rest of the staff on the night were super hospitable.

I really liked every dish, from the starter to the desert. The dishes were refined with different consistencies and with a sophisticated appearance. The staff is really kind and prepared to explain them. The atmosphere is cozy and elegant. I was surprised how they’ve been able to create vegetarian dishes with so much taste. I recommend it, and I’m not even vegetarian or vegan.

Honestly I expected so much more from this place. I had high hopes based on the reviews I read but the main dish just wasn't good. Starter was fine and the dessert we liked... Staff was friendly and said they would have replaced it had we not waited till the end to tell them. Maybe we just came on a bad day but seeing as it's out only experience then it's all we can go by.

Not a big fan ~ we were placed at a table right next to the noisy kitchen. We managed to get another one after painful negotiations. The portions were tiny and I found my dish to be very random ~ something I could have done easily at home

I tried the four course vegan menu at De Waaghals. The food is great, among the better places in Amsterdam. The first course was really good and the celery starter with leek butter had all the right flavours. The second course with roasted carrots was amazing as well with the madras sauce. The dish that lacked for me was the main dish - lentil crumble with caramelised onion in potato purée with parsley oil. I think it needed something more to match up to the first two courses. The dessert was great again and the orange flavoured toffee brownie with walnut ice cream was a great combo. The service could improve a bit - like being attentive about providing water when I tried to get the staff’s attention for good ten minutes. Also the wine pairing was good but also the most expensive one in the menu was recommended to me so I don’t know if there were less pricey options too. Good experience overall and hopefully will visit again

Excellent food. Tasting menus available for 3 (42 eur) or 4 (51 eur) courses, vegan or vegetarian. They are very different meals, not just something missing to make it vegan. Excellent service, meals and mood, faultless.

Best vegetarien I have ever had

(Translated by Google) Recommended (Original) Aanrader

Was a little more than I expected to pay for but food was great.

(Translated by Google) Tasty, but not cheap (Original) Lekker, maar niet goedkoop

(Translated by Google) Fine service, atmosphere too stiff the food is okay. (Original) Fijne bediening, sfeer te stijf het eten is oke.

Very nice restaurant. I am vegetarian and this place was just perfect for me: the menu is fixed, I got the 3 courses and it was all very tasty, good portions and very satisfying in general. The restaurant is cosy and very welcoming. I loved that.

Amazing experience! The dishes were elegant and super tasty, and the staff were so lovely: kind, attentive, and really passionate and knowledgable about the food and wines. Fine dining but definitely not uptight. Romantic and laid back atmosphere. 100% recommend.

Pleasent atmosphere, very friendly service. Excellent vegetarian and vegan 4 main Menu. Excellent cava and wine. Highly recommend!

Great restaurant with innovative and delicious dishes. The surprise menu with a wine pairing was great. Very interesting and different wines too. Would highly recommend. Restaurant ambiance is cozy and the staff are very friendly.

It is a changing preset meal, 3 or 4 courses. You pick if you want vegetarian or vegan and let them know of any allergies or I liked ingredients. Such a wonderful experience, definitely plan to go back.

Each dish was delicious and well thought out. Evrerything we tasted was great! 1 star missing as the service was very slow

We went on a Friday night. We had a reservation. We had the 4-course vegetarian menu. Everything was delicious and we were very happy with our choice. We would recommend the experience and would return the next time we are in Amsterdam.

I’m not a vegetarian but I loved my meal here. The food is artistically prepared and presented. The flavors are diverse and well balanced. And the staff is very hospitable.

Definitely one of the best vegetarian restaurants in Amsterdam. The cozy mood attracts nice type of people too.

As a non-vegetarian/vegan I really appreciated the food. Didn't miss the meat at all. Everything tasted amazing and the staff is very informative about what you're eating. The housewine is great, left us buzzed like bees on a gentle summers day. It is a bit cozy inside, but that isn't a surprise for that area in Amsterdam. Would definitely go back again. The prices are inline with what you get, not cheap but also not too expensive. Recommended.

Such an intimate place, feels like you’re at home. We had the vegetarian 3 course. Unique dishes, all of them had some sort of bitterness which I found interesting. Even though they were great, my favourite part was the simplest - the sourdough and the wine.

The food was exceptional and a wonderful surprise. The chef was very accommodating for allergies even with our guest with an onion sensitivity, but please let them know when you are booking the restaurant if you have dietary concerns. We appreciated the effort, love, and care put into the food! A rare experience, and a must try if you are vegan or vegetarian.

Really amazing food, probably the tastiest and most interesting mix of flavours across the four course tasting menu (choose between vegan or veggie) that I've ever eaten out. We originally went for three courses but upgraded to four as the first two were so tasty! Went for a birthday meal and although It worked out at about €55 per person, for that you get a real culinary experience from a very experienced chef and lovely waiting staff who couldn't be more helpful...and a few glasses of wine to boot. I would definitely recommend for a special meal when in Amsterdam.
