What’s the vibe?
Kaagman & Kortekaas is hidden down a narrow medieval alley at the heart of the Palace District. It couldn’t be more central, but make no mistake: this is no tourist trap. This spot is unpretentious, unique, and constantly in-demand by locals.
What are the prices like?
Tasting menus start at €69.50 per person for four courses, though you can go all-out with a five or six-course feast, too. Frankly, you probably should.
What should I order?
The menu changes quite frequently here based on the season, but it’s always inventive and surprising with plenty of venison and sustainable nose-to-tail offerings. If you haven’t managed to snag a booking, stop by to see if there’s a free spot at the bar to enjoy a glass of wine with housemade charcuterie and oysters.
What’s worth visiting nearby?
Grab an early dinner after shopping on the nearby Kalverstraat and Nieuwendijk high streets or pop into Amsterdam’s oldest tasting room, De Drie Fleschjes, for a post-prandial tipple just one street away. Alternatively, check out which art, culture or photography exhibition is on at De Nieuwe Kerk, just around the corner.
