A group of us was wandering around the many restaurants in the area, looking for something that would serve some Dutch food rather than the many other international eateries that were nearby. We almost passed by the Kop van Jut, since it was so tiny and we could see there were very few people inside. But we noticed the tripadvisor... More

There we were, our first night in Amsterdam. Disoriented and hungry. We were wandering the neighborhood and just liked the looks of the place. So we stopped in. What luck! This is a fabulous restaurant! This isn't a fancy place. Kop van Jut is tiny but tidy. We had snappy, friendly service. The food was supurb. Prices were very reasonable,... More

Really good food. Homemade fries and mayonnaise are amazing. Went there two days in a row for their atmosphere and fries. Friendly staff.

Kop van Jut is a small restaurant which is found up a steep flight of steps from the street and offers European food. Based on two floors, this narrow restaurant has an open and relatively rudamentary kitchen stuck at the back, from which a restricted but well-cooked range of dishes eminate. The physical dimensions of the kitchen dictate the menu,... More

We visited this little establishment back in February 2011 after reading reviews on here, at the time it was ranked very highly. It did take a little finding as it has a very small front and we almost passed it, but we were glad we didn't! We got here early, as reviews stated that it became very busy and it... More

Being a regular visitor to Amsterdam, we have our favourite places but wanted to try somewhere new. While looking at the menu outside a group of locals were leaving and offerred that it was a great place to eat, so in we went. The ambience is gezellig enough, and the menu offers enough choices to be interesting. We had beef... More

My boyfriend and I ate here after walking around, looking for a place that served Dutch food - I had wanted to try bitterballen before leaving Amsterdam. We decided on this place and were not disappointed. The restaurant is small but had a nice atmosphere (it didn't feel too touristy), and our waitress was very friendly and helpful. We tried... More

A friend and I scouted this little gem for our group of eight friends. We made reservations so it was no problem getting a table. The food and service were both excellent. So good in fact, six of us returned the next night because the chef said he would be serving ribs. Again the food and service were top-notch. The... More
