    Absolutely outstanding. By far the best meal we've had all year (keep in mind we live in London and dine out all the time). The quality of the ingredients was superb and the space simply beautiful.

    Top-quality restaurant with a very original concept in a calm park near the centre: a French food fixed menu conceived around home-grown vegetables. Wine list is very good too. A must!

    Great restaurant with vegetarian options. The staff is really friendly and uncomplicated with special requests. Unfortunately you need to ask for water (a lot) and don‘t get it all the time.

    Try and get the chef's table. Crew is extremely passionate about what they're doing with homegrown produce from their greenhouse & farm, and love to tell you about it. Bourdain, pay attention.

    One of the most beautiful restaurants I've dined at. Food was incredible! They only had a tasting menu on offer; we also opted for the wine pairing. Perfect combination of vegetables and meats.

    The owners of De Kas are convinced that food is at its best when it's server as fresh as possible. That is why they came up with growing their own crop right in the restaurant. A 3-course menu is €50. Read more

    Lovely setting and only one menu. Simple ingredients but deliciously prepared and also love the farm-to-table concept!

    We took a chief's table and would highly recommend this if you like highest quality restaurants. It goes without saying that quality of service was incredible and food was delicious.

    Lovely setting in the park with most ingredients grown themselves. I didn’t love every dish, but they were all interesting and creative, service was great

    BEAUTIFUL space and lovely staff and meal. Like a mini Blue Hill Stone Barns in New York. Everything is grown here or at their farm. Wonderful experience.

    Try the wine pairing if you are stuck for a choice of wine. The staff are very friendly and will pair the wine based on your meal choice.

    Excellent menu changes daily based on the freshest ingredients. One menu (with substitutions for vegetarians) offers a uniquely refined dining experience.

    Restaurant critic Hiske Versprille just gave it a 5 (out of 10): Great ingredients put together w/o love or attention & inattentive but pretentious personnel. A place for tourists that won't come back

    Upscale, trendy, farm fresh, organic. Words that describe a terrific meal and setting. Worth the price for special occasions.

    The best cuisine in Amsterdam, an amazing restaurant, overpriced (60 euros per person at least) but totally worth it!

    Beautify atmosphere and dishes. Vegan version of the tasting menu wasn't amazing, but was pleased they accommodated me! Let them know you're vegan upon reservation.

    I never knew vegetables can be this good. Honestly !! The duck was the weakest dish way too gamy and tough the rest is just out of this world.

    Can easily cater to you if you're vegan. But expect your dinner to be mostly vegetables in that case. :)

    Beautiful architecture. The food all looked beautiful but didn't taste great. None of the appetizers or entrees were particularly memorable.

    The service is soo slow. But they work with the locals, they grow their own green, (it's a "kas") and their below average wine should be supported with a 7up (it's called a şargoz) the concept is fine
