Excellent food, great service in this Michelin bib gourmand recommended restaurant@Okura hotel. We sat outside on the terrace, we were offered heated cushions when it cooled down a bit. We thought the lower part of the terrace looked a bit unused. Our three course birthday dinner with drinks came to about €170,- which was well worth it. Special recommendation: corvina dashi.

33 euros for this very average turkey Caesar and a glass of water. Michelin rationale behind bib gourmand status is a mystery: “our best value for money restaurants have been pointed out using a special award: the Bib Gourmand”

Amazing food and excellent service. There is not much to add when you are speechless because it is so incredibly good.

Service a little slow but not bad. Good tempura and good Caesar salads! ribs is very good too and they have a kids menu which helps a lot!

Firstly compliments to the Staff, well done for making our night fantastic. Compliments to the chef. What a lovely relaxing atmosphere, we sat outside did not feel rushed. Food top notch.

From "Michelin recommended" restaurant I was expecting something more exciting. Limited choices in the menu - ok, but... The meat (two different dishes) was just ok (btw, served on the cokd plate), side dish salad was even better, but just too small. Deserts are also average. So, nothing special at all. For such price - there are many other interesting options for thd dinner.

We had the Afternoon Tea. It’s was very nice experience with the girls. The savoury dishes are definitely my favorite! Lots of sweetness and sweet treats for my girlfriends and they absolutely loved it. The Japanse touch in it was really nice.

This place is amazing! Fresh food, amazing services! 😁

food is light and delicious. Japanese and western fusion style as was expected from the name of the hotel. wine list is not expansive but reasonable. service was attentive. there is a covered outdoor area allowing for maximum sunlight soaking. bit on the expensive side.

We have really enjoyed our afternoon tea here! The food is really tasteful, the first courses are super fine! The ingredients are fresh and intense (in a good way). After that: a lot of sweets (see picture). The teas and champagne was great too! But the waitress Dolly made our afternoon more pleasant, thanks for your good service!

Good food, but the service was lacking. We ordered a 3 course meal and asked if we could decide the dessert after the main course. After finishing the main course and them taking the plates away, we never saw the waiter again. We were trying to make contact while the staff was behind the bar, waiving and making eye contact, but to no avail. It was really awkward for such a nice restaurant, I find it in bad taste to yell or snap your fingers. Eventually we got the attention of another waitress, but it completely soured out experience.

Always lovely staff and good food! The Thai bitterballen are amazing!

Serre is one out of four restaurants in the Amsterdam Okura hotel - the simplest with "only" a Bib-Gourmand recommendation from Michelin. They serve a really good four course menu for 60 Euros including wine, water, bread and tea and coffee - a real bargain! They have outdoor seating as well for good weather. Atmosphere very relaxed an service outstanding and very friendly. Warmly recommended!

Maybe expectations were too high as we had tried one of the Michelin starred restaurants there the last time we visited. We have also tried many many bib gourmand restaurants before. I got the impression this was a regular brasserie trying to be what it's not. We ordered steak and it was barely room temperature. We complained and it came back the same. Didn't help that the steak was not tasty....just blah. Staff was very courteous but in the end we got the starters about 50 minutes after ordering. Starters were great and the only highlight of the meal (try the Dutch cheese meal). If I'd had to do it again I'd order Chinese take out instead...sorry folks.

We had a dinner at Serre and I must say it was an amazing experience ! The food was really tasty and looked wonderful. But the best of all was the service, which was just incredible. Really recommend!

Friendly staff Good food. The kid's menu is available.

We had a wonderful anniversary dinner at Serre. Nice food and great service. And they are so thoughtful to surprise us with a special dessert plate! Thank you for making our day.😊

Had a great time, excellent food and great service. Went for a three course meal, didn't disappoint at any point, each dish crafted with balanced flavours, well portioned with an appropriate visual flare. Perfect for a romantic dinner or most occasions really. The staff are engaged in your experience, make you feel comfortable and are amenable to your needs

The atmosphere is amazing. the service is outstanding, and the taste is incredible.

We had the Japanese summer high tea in Serre at Okura. A unique experience in Amsterdam, not the typical British-style high tea with sandwiches and a lot of sweets. Recommended if you are looking for a special experience. Because it is summer, we got iced tea instead of the usual high tea. They were made by the restaurant (instead of using some commercial tea brand). In total we got three types of iced tea, which were all refreshing. They were slightly sweetened, not overpowering the tea but enough to enhance the original flavor of the tea. The savory stuffs were served first. The beef tartare was one of the best I have ever tried. The shrimp was fresh and the tempura coating was crunchy, topped with perfect amount of sauce. Nothing to complain about. Then for the sweets, we got 8 types of sweets. They were presented in a wooden box, some were inside the ‘drawers’. Presentation was simple but retained the luxurious impression. The highlights were: -Opera with pineapple, coconut, and almond: this is a unique combination that really works -Black sesame macaron: I was expecting more sweet taste but the black sesame flavor was not faint at all, I could taste it clearly. This choice of flavor for the macaron made the high tea more Japanese Everything else was delicious and not too sweet (except for the mellow cake). Most of them were fruity and the fruits especially the strawberries were fresh and not too sour. After the high tea was finished we didn’t end up bloated nor stuffed in a bad way (which you usually get from eating too much sugary stuffs). If there is one word to describe the high tea, it would be: balance, from the sugar and ingredients used in the ice teas, the sauces for the savory dishes, and the size and varieties of the sweets served. Another plus point, the service was perfect. The waiters well explained the food they served. I requested for no cucumber which was taken seriously. They asked if everything was ok in a proper frequency (not asked too much).

I really enjoyed everything about this place. The food was delicious, simple and flavorful, and the ambiance and service was fantastic. The poached peach dessert is one I will not forget for a long time. Very, very memorable.

The Bib Gourmand title should be withdrawed. Compared to e.g. Cafe Caron which is also on the Michelin Guide but hasn’t received the Bib Gourmand distinction, Serre is not entitled to the distinction. Service was friendly - however the Japanese kimonoes and flipflops are completely off as the food is only borderline Japanese. In overall, a little disappointing.

A decent restaurant located in the Okura Hotel. The staffs were kind and atmosphere was great. We tried the chicken with hazelnut and spinach topping, which was really tasty and the plating was also beautiful.

I give two stars only for the good service. The Bib Gourmand rating should be retrieved! The lobster overcooked, the mussels overcooked and without any flavour. The small appetiser with polpo was so bad, there was more fennel than “polpo” . The meat was terrible and again no flavour. Honestly I was very disappointed. If you want seafood, better go to the Seafood Bar, much better quality.
