    A positive suprise! I tried sea foods and they were tasty. Cherry on the cake was the dessert display. The decor was really modern. For a restaurant being in the notorius party tourist area, this was a quality place. Easy location and suitable for big groups.

    I had a heated exchange at dinner with a girl from Chicago regarding my last name... I hope she gets that stick out of her read end and learns to take it easy. How childish. The chicken satay was tasty. Did not like the fries with mayo.

    Go to location around Rembrandtsquare for a Latin night, both ambiance and food is usually on standard. Would advise to make reservations for seating with views over the square with a cocktail.

    Summary: Centrally located, nice interior, balcony seats to enjoy the view of Rembrandt plein. During the day, you can have a nice drink (lunch), during the evening its barclub with free entry and good music. Check their website for the program, they have clubnights and salsa/latin nights. Good - location - free entry - decent service Improve - pricing

    Maybe four stars, but the line for hanging up the clothes was long, the wait to get a drink as well. Might be because of being understaffed...not sure. We had a good night, but hard to give more than three stars.

    (Translated by Google) Very unpleasant welcome, no willingness on the part of the servers, when we ask for a sauce without onions and it is not possible while preparing a cream sauce is done in 5 minutes ... more a person from our group felt very bad all night because of the food (no alcohol or other consumption that would justify this state). I strongly recommend apart from the pretty view (Original) Accueil très désagréable, aucune volonté de la part des serveurs, lorsqu’on demande une sauce sans oignons et que ce n’est pas possible alors que préparer une sauce crème c’est fait en 5 minutes ... de plus une personne de notre groupe s’est senti très mal toute la nuit à cause de la nourriture (aucune consommation alcool ou autre qui justifierai cet état). Je déconseille fortement a part la jolie vue

    A good place to chill out. Free entry. Drinks are priced at Eur 10. DJ is good. Dancefloor is big enough to accommodate 50-80 people

    I don’t want to say they had the dumbest bartender, because that would be rude…and an understatement. How can you bartend in an establishment like this and not know what liquors (gin) you have, forget a drink order of two drinks (three times), and not know how to add €12 and €3 together (by the way, the answer is not €16…but you’re very close. Keep trying.) Won’t be coming here on my next trip to Amsterdam, that’s for sure.

    Finn the manager was brilliant and attentive. He always ensured we had drinks and was conservational about our holiday, despite it being a busy Saturday. Overall a brilliant experience. We would recommend visiting here on a weekend.

    We had a private party here for a friend's birthday, security staff were overly aggressive, pushing us out the door when we were trying to put our coats on in calm manor when it was time for us to leave. He was also shouting, swearing. It's not what you expect when our group were all completely nice people and leaving at the correct time, just did not want to be pushed out the door whilst I'm trying to put my coat on. On the other hand the bar staff were completely nice. Just avoid it.

    Lovely place, nice atmosphere. Although will be nice having more vegan options, but what they made for me was really yummy 😋 I went with colleagues in a dinner company, so I don’t have idea of prices and menu.

  • 1/5 Yunel Y. 3 months ago on Google • 9 reviews New
    Very nice place but 1 star because they freaking charge you to use the restrooms. We visited a few nightclubs in New Year’s Eve and this is the only place that you need to pay for this. How retarded is this? You pay for drinks and then pay to pee? lol

  • 5/5 Paria H. 10 months ago on Google • 6 reviews
    I recently visited a restaurant with my family, we celebrate a birthday and I must say, it was an amazing experience. The food was delicious and the staff was exceptional. They went above and beyond to make sure our dining experience was enjoyable, especially with our children. The staff was very attentive and accommodating to our needs. They even took the time to engage with our children and make them feel welcome. It was so refreshing to see a restaurant that not only caters to adults but also to families with young children. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, and the service was top-notch. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu, and made great recommendations for us to try. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great dining experience. The food, service, and atmosphere were all outstanding, and the staff's attention to detail and care for our children made it even more special. We will definitely be returning soon!

    (Translated by Google) I come here too often. De Kroon is a wonderful place if you want to socialize while enjoying a delicious cocktail or something else. The atmosphere / ambiance is nice and in the conservatory you have a nice view of the Rembrandtplein. We have eaten a burger and risotto here before and that was very good, but we prefer the bites from the small menu. The last time it took a long time before we got our food and drink (even though it wasn't necessarily busy) and our frozen strawberry daiquiri tasted very different from normal. Also the flammküchen was tasteless this time .. Maybe new people? But all previous times it was great, so hopefully they will find their quality again and then we will keep coming! (Original) Hier kom ik veel te vaak. De Kroon is een heerlijke plek als je gezellig bij wil kletsen onder het genot van een heerlijke cocktail of iets anders. De sfeer/ambiance is fijn en in de serre kijk je mooi uit op het Rembrandtplein. We hebben hier eerder een burger en risotto gegeten en dat was heel prima, toch gaat onze voorkeur uit naar de bites van de kleine kaart. De laatste keer duurde het wel èrg lang voordat we ons eten en drinken kregen (ook al was het niet per se druk) en onze frozen strawberry daiquiri smaakte heel anders dan normaal. Ook de flammküchen was deze keer smaakloos.. Misschien nieuwe mensen? Maar alle vorige keren was het top, dus hopelijk vinden ze hun kwaliteit weer terug en dan blijven wij komen!

    (Translated by Google) Thank you, too bad that they are spots upstairs rather early removed to make an early dance floor. (Original) Dankje gedaan, jammer dat ze zit plekken boven nogal vroeg verwijderd werden om er een vroege dansvloer van te maken.

  • 3/5 M Prins (. 6 years ago on Google
    Food was ok here, unfortunately nothing to write home about. Restaurant itself is very nice and modern, the appetizers were quite good, but the main dishes especially the burgers can be done way better. The spare ribs on the other hand were done quite well... All in all, the food was ok, but expected better. Service and all other aspects were good.

  • 4/5 akash r. 5 years ago on Google
    de Kroon is a good place for Latin music. They host 2 salsa/bachata parties every week - Wednesday and Sunday with free entrance.

  • 4/5 Rosie Fawbert M. 4 years ago on Google
    Had a great meal here with friends and enjoyed the DJ - great service and tasty food and cocktails.

  • 5/5 Vukasin E. 4 years ago on Google
    Very nice restaurant and caffe. We went there on Latin night and some bite before it. Food was good. Burger slightly hot but very tasty, Dutch plate very nice. After the dinner, salsa dance started. Very relaxed atmosphere and a lot of good, avarge and beginner dancers. So if you dance salsa (no metter how), Wednesday is perfect solution for you. Prices. Good. Not too expensive. Burger 15e, beer 3-4e. Music and DJ very good. So one nice Amstderdam experience and worth to visit place to dance or just to enjoy nice place and drink.

  • 4/5 Sabrina M. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Top atmosphere, musical and decent dishes Expensive for what it is the dishes but beautiful view on the terrace which becomes a smoking place when the dancing party begins (Original) Ambiance top, musicale et plats correct Cher pour ce que c'est les plats mais belle vue en terrasse qui devient un endroit fumeur lorsque la partie dansante commence

  • 3/5 Jason C. 1 year ago on Google
    Would give 4/5, but the lady working the toilets was such an utter pain to everyone at our party that I cannot. Was unhelpful, unfriendly, tried to cut off the wristband marking our private party, and then confrontational when we told her that we still needed it. Nice cocktails, but they apparently stop serving them mid of the night.

    Went to the club. Charges for bathroom, and doesn't give tap water... Don't be cheap... The place itself is fine.

  • 5/5 Gültekin G. 1 year ago on Google
    I visited the restaurant with my customers. It was a business dinner. The place is cosy, and has a great scenery. The staff was friendly and our meals were extremely delicious. Special thanks to Mr Q, who shows an outstanding interest and take care of our table. He is a great manager.

  • 1/5 Sotiris T. 1 year ago on Google
    We went there for a company dinner with a pub quiz. Very poor choice from the side of the PubQuiz organisers to choose this place to work with. Very loud music and low lighting doesn't help when you're trying to play a round of pub quiz. Now as for the actual restaurant. The food was nothing special, we started with a stale flatbread and two tiny spreads and then on to the burgers. For most of us arrived cold and the burger was actually rock hard. There was a good amount of a blueberry (or some kind) of marmalade on it probably to cover the taste. The dessert was a tiny chocolate mousse very dense and overly sweet. The worst part was the service though. The head waiter and the other stuff were in a hurry to serve us and get rid of us. No personal touch, no willingness to give us a pleasurable experience. Plus the portions on the wines they were serving us were unequal and when we asked about it they simply said that some red wines they pour more than others, which has no logic whatsoever. I wouldn't recommend it to my enemies and I would definitely never go back there

  • 1/5 Alex K. 1 year ago on Google
    “Free admission” but I’m required to pay them to check my coat? I was wearing a flannel shirt with buttons and they told me it was a jacket and I couldn’t enter wearing it. Never wasting my time at a place like this LOL

  • 5/5 Same O. 1 year ago on Google
    We had a large table and they were absolutely excellent at serving and accommodating us. Really good food considering we were a large group.

  • 1/5 Ramsés D. 8 months ago on Google
    Worst place to end our Bar Hopping night. The racist woman that charges for the bathroom took my wife by the neck and threw her in the elevator. I'm on a cane, but if not, I would have gone physical for assaulting my wife. You shouldn't hire these type of employees, we paid everything and we were having fun. Don't visit this place.

  • 3/5 Karina A. 10 months ago on Google
    On 26.05 ended up there accidentally and was not left disappointed. The place is cool apart from staff asking you to leave to your jacket in the small lockers for €2. The decor and the vibe of the place is nice. Drinks are at a very reasonable price. The reason there’s 3 stars is because 1: the dj was TERRIBLE. The songs were ok but how can you play an Enrique iglesias and next tune as a hard techno song? Also remixes of most of the songs were so hardcore. 2: the bathroom is 50 cents. That’s a bit embarrassing for a place like this 3: the Victoria secret show on repeat on the screen…. That’s just weird

    (Translated by Google) Ordered the drink first. My beer was lukewarm, after explaining from the staff that it was on tap, but indicated that I would like to replace it with a bottle of Heineken. Appetizer was fine. My main course was cold. Clearly noticeable that my steak had been done before as my partner's risotto. And therefore had been under the heat lamp for too long. My main course was so lukewarm. In addition, I had a small piece of glass in my mouth during dinner. Unfortunately, a worthy response from the staff was not forthcoming. I was offered coffee afterwards, but that came too late. I didn't feel like sitting down any longer. All in all, I will not be going back here. (Original) Als eerste de drank besteld. Mijn bier was lauw, na uitleg van het personeel dat het aan de tap lag, toch maar aangegeven dat ik zou willen vervangen door een fles heineken. Voorgerecht was prima. Mijn hoofdgerecht was koud. Duidelijk te merken dat mijn steak al eerder klaar was als de risotto van mijn partner. En hierdoor dus te lang onder de warmtelamp had gestaan. Mijn hoofdgerecht was dus lauw. Daarnaast had ik tijdens het eten een klein stuk glas in mijn mond. Helaas bleef een waardige reactie van het personeel uit. Wel achteraf koffie aangeboden gekregen, maar dat kwam te laat. Ik had geen zin om nog langer te blijven zitten. Al met al zal ik hier niet meer terug naar toe gaan.

  • 5/5 Sam R. 5 years ago on Google
    I will definitely be coming back here. Right on the square with a nice staff and somehow avoiding the worst of the tourists. Had a great time here with my girlfriend. Relaxing with chilled out music, a place to go when the party atmosphere of amsterdam is a little too much. As a resident, this is a fine place on the doorstep of the action but far enough away that you can peer down at the carnage from a nice quiet balcony!

  • 4/5 Adamski 4 years ago on Google
    Good taste of kitchen Chef, dishes are very good. Upstairs place to drink a beer and chill on a balcony. Dj who know what people want and nice place to dance for around 90 people. I recommend this place for sure

  • 3/5 Yigit O. 4 years ago on Google
    They do not know how to make cocktails. That is a fact. Also, you have to pay with coins every time you have to use the toilet! The food is OK and so is the music. Those are what the 3 stars are for.
