The charismatic space is defined by its frequent pops of color, from vibrant emerald green chairs to its blue tiled bar and matching bar stools. The chic interior is a welcome high end addition to the Amsterdam foodie scene.
A member of the George family of dining establishments, this charming restaurant in Amsterdam is an upscale alternative to the countless Liedseplein Italian joints that feature entire menus available for five Euros.
