👍👍 The Foodmarket is my favorite buffet place in the Netherlands! A great variety of foods and many meat and seafood options to choose from. My favorites are the scallops in the shells and the fresh oysters. They also have a wide range of desserts to choose from such as shaved ice, freshly made poffe...

    When I went for the first time when it first opened, food was tasty and good. Went there last Saturday and the quality dropped immensely. Food was the most disappointing thing I have had. Bland, flavorless and drier than my great grandmother’s ashes 😁.The meat didn’t even seem to be seasoned at all, not even a grain of salt. The only thing with flavor were the drinks. Definitely not worth the price.

    (Translated by Google) For my birthday I tried something different, Foodmarket in Amsterdamlll The staff was so sweet, helpful and friendly. You rarely come across them in the hospitality industry. The sushi was surprisingly good. A lot of attention to details in the sushi, and that for a wok restaurant!! You often don't have to expect much from the sushi. We found a very extensive range of aa that was constantly replenished and everything was really super tasty. Our visit to Foodmarket was really great. Can't wait to go again. I recommend this restaurant to everyone in my area anyway. (Original) Voor mijn verjaardag maar iets anders geprobeerd, Foodmarket in Amsterdamlll Wat was het personeel lief, behulpzaam en vriendelijk. Zo kom je ze nog zelden tegen in de horeca. De sushi was verrassend goed. Veel aandacht voor details in de sushi, en dat voor een wok restaurant!! Waarbij je vaak van de sushi niet veel van hoeft te verwachten. We troffen een heel uitgebreid assortiment aa dat constant werd bijgevuld en alles was echt super smaakvol. Onze bezoek aan Foodmarket was echt top. Kan niet wachten om weer te gaan. Ik raad dit restaurant bij iedereen in mijn omgeving sowieso aan.

    Nice and clean contemporary environment. Great tastes with 4 kitchens and 2 Chefs cooking your food you choose from the buffet with the raw meats! Each kitchen prepares something else! Salads, sushi, sweets, appetisers, whatever you can imagine! Amazing tastes! The toilets very clean as well! I’m definitely suggesting this place!

    It was our first time to try food in this restaurant. We didn‘t reserve any table since we were new in Netherlands, but the staff were very kind and helpful. So many various food, delicious, and complete from Appetizer to Dessert. The price is included drinks too. We‘ll definitely come back to Netherlands for this restaurant.

    First of all, it's really far from the centre so plan your journey accordingly if going by public transport. They have a good selection of food, a lot of hits and a few misses. The BBQ and wok were great. There was a long wait for the freshly made waffles but it was worth it. It's nice that they have a fresh orange juice machine too. I've been to bigger buffets but this one is still worth visiting at least once. We paid for 3 hours but that's overkill imo. 2 hours is more than enough to cover everything if so inclined.

    Great food and cuisine variety, all of a quality you can expect from an "all you can eat" establishment. You won't go short of anything, but be prepared to queue for steaks and other popular items. It can be busy at times, but the never ending supply of inclusive beer (Texels and Heineken) and wine helps make it good. Be prepared for lots of kids running around and being noisy. It is a family spot after all. Very few tourists as it's off the beaten track,so mostly locals only. All in all not bad for EUR40 during the week (EUR44 on weekends).

    This is one of the All You Can Eat restaurants that I like. Various choices like seafood, sushi, vegetables, and the desert. Good place. The day is your birthday, you are FREE.

    (Translated by Google) I am amazed at the quality of the food. The case also has a beautiful and luxurious appearance. The sushi is exceptionally tasty!!! Lobster and crab delicious. Scallops, shrimp and real bbq meat yummy So far this is the best world cuisine I have visited! I will definitely come more often☺️ (Original) Ik ben verbaasd over de kwaliteit van het eten. De zaak heeft ook een mooie en luxe uitstraling. De sushi is uitzonderlijk lekker!!! Kreeft en krab heerlijk. Coquilles,garnalen en echte bbq vlees yummy 🤤 Tot nu toe is dit de beste wereldkeuken die ik heb bezocht! Ik zal zeker vaker komen☺️

    Bedrijfsnaam: The Foodmarket Locatie: Osdorp Soort:All you can eat wereld restaurant Eten 1/10: 8 Parkeren: Zeer gemakkelijk, veel beschikbaar Toiletten: Beschikbaar Netheid 1/10: 8 Bereikbaarheid auto: Zeer gemakkelijk Bereikbaarheid OV: Zeer gemakkelijk Rolstoeltoegankelijkheid: Ja Klantvriendelijkheid 1/10: 8 Review: Een nieuwe all you can eat wereld restaurant. Het grootste verschil hier is dat zij heerlijke sushi’s maken vergeleken met de andere ketens. Echt veel keuzes! Van hapjes naar lekkere deserts maken ze echt vers. Wij hebben hier goed genoten en zal zeker nog terugkomen :). Parkeren was ideaal en we waren goed geholpen. Personeel was erg behulpzaam.

    It's an all you can eat buffet. You can stay for 2, 2.5 or 3 hours. Very well made and a good selection of food. Mostly asian but not exclusively. The price is very good for the amount of food you can get. Even if it was crowded, you could easily walk around and mostly get what you want. The only negative is that they threw away the food you hadn't or couldn't eat in front of you, making you think about all this wasted food, which is a shame and a jarring experience..

    Sorry for that one star because food was amazing! Yesterday is my second time visit in Foodmarket. Only service was so bad. Well, I asked ice cubes at the bar so the chinese woman behind the bar show me where the ice basket is. It was fine, I didn’t see the basket. Second time ice cubes in the basket was empty so I waited in the line at the bar behind the Dutch woman who was asking the beer and glass of ice cubes. The bar woman gave her the glass of ice cubes with smiles. When she saw me asking again for ice cubes, her face impression was totally changed and told me ‘ I showed you already where the ice cubes was’. I was so angry and told her ‘ the basket of ice is empty everywhere that’s why i came to asked you. Beside you just gave a glass of ice cubes to the Dutch lady with smile and why not me’ She answered that the lady is asking for her glass of wine. So what’s the difference? I don’t want to ruined my mom evening because this was a late mother’s day dinner for her. What a discrimination behaviors of that Chinese bar woman. Totally disappointing!!!!

    Delicious food and lots of choice. I really enjoyed the seafood, lobster and scallops. The meat from the charcoal grill was also good. Restaurant looks amazing and the waiters are very friendly.

    Came here without reservation and was a good find! They had sashimi and also great meat on the barbeque! Wude choice of food and also drinks which you can take from the fridge. Beer and wine need to be ordered at the bar. Additionally there is a playground for children but the playcorner was quite cold 🥶

    The food is pretty okay for an all you can eat buffet. Quite a variety. The fact that drinks are included just makes it that much nicer. The staff don’t really interact much, with you, which some people might prefer and some might not. There is something for everyone. It’s a nice place overall

  • 4/5 #MusicClub - Live Music, Karaoke, Party V. 3 months ago on Google • 24 reviews New
    This is the place to go if you love (all kinds of) food and with good quality. Although the quality varies from time to time (can’t put my finger on it…), overall it is satisfactory! And the price is very reasonable especially if you like seafood: crabs, lobsters, scallops, gamba’s, shrimps, shells, fish… As long as you are not stuck up and love good food, you’ll enjoy the visit… And, they serve cocktails (€6 extra) as well! Don’t forget the free parking on the 3 storey indoor parking…

    Just like other "eat all you can" restaurants that have existed in Amsterdam, but there are variety of seafoods, there is paella, the aubergine with fish was the best and scallops, crabs and shrimps. Friday (weekend) though is not the best day to go, it's full of people, very chaotic. Reservation was ok, via phone call was easy and quick but upon arriving, we reserved for 17 people (2 hours) but we were given a table for only 14 and we had to wait like 20 minutes to be fixed. They just added another table and made our seat very UNCOMFORTABLE as the additional table blocked the hallway for the other customers and Workers to pass through and...and...at exactly 2 hours we were told to leave the place without even considering the hassle "they" made. There's a lot to improve and hope the Resto owner/management will consider this since the idea is great, good food (less the saltiness maybe), cozy place, nice small space for kids, great venue (the escalator though wasn't functioning going to the place), workers must practice smiling and be more hospitable, look at the eye when talking, finish the conversation and don't just walk away.

    Food is good, especially the sushi is very good. Would love to see more good salads and more sorts of desserts. The desserts are mostly store bought cakes and they don't refill them enough. Other than that I eat here often for the yummy sushi

  • 3/5 Daniel V. 6 months ago on Google
    Food was ok, wide variety, some tasty dishes, but mostly it's plain mass-production. The staff is friendly and helpful, the atmosphere however is exactly what you'd expect from an "all you can eat". It's quite expensive though, especially if you go with the entire family.
