Brasserie SenT

We stumbled upon this small, family-run brasserie after the Christmas market closed for the evening, and it turned out to be one of the most memorable meals of our trip. The restaurant has a warm, welcoming neighborhood feel, with an open kitchen built around a Big Green Egg grill. Nearly everything on the menu spends time over the coals, which gives the dishes a deep, delicious smoky character. We ordered a bottle of Gigondas and started with a soup that had been finished on the barbecue. It arrived rich, savory, and lightly smoky, topped with the house-smoked salmon. It was the fabulous. For my main course, I chose the leg of lamb, which the owner told us had been sous-vided for hours before being grilled and smoked. The result was outstanding. The lamb was tender, deeply flavorful, and easily the best I have had in a long time. My wife ordered ravioli filled with porcini mushrooms, served with grilled king mushrooms, smoked almonds, and a mushroom broth finished in the Egg. The flavors were earthy, aromatic, and perfectly balanced, and she loved every bite. For dessert, we shared a cheese plate paired with glasses of Muscat de Beaumes-de-Venise. The wine was sweet and floral and matched beautifully with the cheeses. What truly elevated the experience was the people who run the restaurant. The owners were warm, genuine, and clearly proud of their craft. Before we left, we took a photo with them, and it felt less like a tourist stop and more like being welcomed into a local dining community. Between the cozy atmosphere, the wood-fired cooking, and the heartfelt hospitality, this brasserie delivered an exceptional dining experience. It is the kind of place you remember long after the meal ends, and we would happily return.

Incredible quality of food and wine! The service was welcoming and friendly, we did receive great recommendations regarding food and wine. The place is not too big and very cozy, loved the size. The food blew us away! The quality of the steak was incredible, the sauces on point and tasty. The octopus as well. If you’re looking for a high quality steak, this is the place

We had a fabulous New Year’s Eve dinner here. The restaurant was packed full of diners, and the staff were super busy yet the quality from the kitchen was maintained throughout our evening. A great bottle of red from Veneto added to our fine evening before moving on to Museumplein for the fireworks.

The food here is genuinely very good, but the portions are surprisingly small for the price. The octopus, for example, amounted to barely four bites — at other places, the same price usually gets you a full, generous tentacle. It almost feels like they cut it in a way that hides how little you’re actually getting. The beef was also delicious, but again, quite small considering the cost. Even the crème brûlée was the tiniest I’ve ever been served. Another downside was the noise level. The table next to us was talking extremely loudly, which made it hard to enjoy the meal.

I’ve been caught by the rating on Google maps, as there are not that many places in Amsterdam that can be proud of theirs lol and it didn’t disappoint. The food was really delicious, we’ve had octopus & tartar for the starters and they were fenomenal! Totally recommend! They’re small, so one per person as a starter would work great, but if you want to be full - don’t recommend. The main dish - ravioli with mushrooms were not cooked well, so I can’t really talk abt them much.

One of the best steaks I’ve ever had, the chateaubriand is a must have! We started with octopus and steak tartare and those we to die for, the octopus in particular was not chewy at all and had delicious flavor. The wine selection was varied and full of options 😍. The service was impeccable, the servers so fun and amazing, and the owners were so friendly and accommodating, absolutely will be going again.

Had an amazing dinner at Brasserie Sent – the chateaubriand was absolutely perfect: tender, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. Great service and a warm atmosphere made the whole experience even better. Highly recommended if you’re into top-quality meat dishes!

Excellent meat, super tasty. We asked for half medium and the other half as well done. It was done as it was requested. Everything was very good quality. Service was good and the atmosphere is also nice. We ordered peach Prosecco as the dessert and it tasted great. We also tried the dessert wines but they were too sweet for our taste. Overall experience is really good and recommended!

The food was delicious, beautiful cocktails and wine and top level service. A true neighborhood gem. Wonderful ambience.

We were lucky enough to come here for New Year's Eve dinner. What a great find. Amazing neighborhood, away from the chaos of the center of the city but just a close walk to reach and easy tram access too. From the moment we walked in we felt welcome. Cozy dinning space and the aroma wafting from the kitchen immediately we knew we had picked the right place. We were greeted quickly and seated. We had such delicious food, the Chateaubriand was tender and cooked perfectly, along with the salad and fries we had to accompany. A great little wine list, just enough options to please most anyone and very well priced. We enjoyed our stay and even as it filled cleared and filled again we felt welcome and had we had room we would certainly have enjoyed dessert. We are already thinking of our next visit to Amsterdam and it will definitely include a dinner here.

A more high end restaurant than appears. Smaller portions for higher price but food was undeniably good. Service was slow but friendly.

Cute place in a quiet neighborhood off the main streets. Not touristy. Not pretentious. Very good food, friendly staff, cozy vibe and a sweet house cat named Emily. The steak for two persons is really delicious and the sea bass has wonderful flavor although don't expect a fillet it's on the bone/whole. The waitress told us this though so we were prepared! The leek soup with smoked salmon was really good and a dish I've never tried before. We will be back!

the portions were extremely small. had a negative experience where they neglected to tell the party that the food would be served in communal style. the waiter noticed something was not right and asked what was wrong . she apologized but right after this the manager/owner (not sure what is her role) approached us and asked us the same question and gave a snarky/sarcastic response that we are unreasonable because "we don't like to share".

One of the top meals we had in Amsterdam. Classic French brasserie food, done perfectly, with impeccable yet friendly and comfortable service. We had the cote de boeuf, sea bass and ravioli. Everything was perfectly done, including the salad and fries. Very enjoyable meal, fantastic atmosphere. 2 thumbs way up!

Very nice place a bit off the Oude Pijp, trendy neighborhood of the young and cool, with elegant decor and kind service. You won't find a lot of options on the menu, as one may expect from a traditional Brasserie, but the trade in is good: a little but evident up scaling on the choice of dishes and their preparation. I went for the lamb and have no regrets. Most important of all: in a country famous for and proud of their french fries, those were the very best I had.

From the food to the service, everything was 5 stars (including the price)! I will come back again, for sure! Specially recommended to meat lovers

I went to Sent with a group of colleagues from work, just after the training. I called in advance to book a table for 8 and asked if we could sit outside to catch the last rays of summer sun. When we arrive to the restaurant the table was waiting for us outside in the sun. While waiting for the rest of the group to arrive I could already smell a great aroma of very well prepared steak. We all decided to take a starter and main course. For starter the winner was salmon with beetroot - that was so lovely. Main - meat. Salmon was delicious and the meat was amazing!!! Great price as well. You can get main for 18.50 EUR and they have great house wine for 21.50 - really good value. There are however 2 small minus points - sometimes it takes a bit of time to get the attention of the waitress, I presume the owner of the place and serving tortelling as main dish is a bit overpriced, compared to steaks with fries and salad. It is a great, cosy restaurant with very delicious food for people who take their time to enjoy dinner (including the wait).

Very good experience all around: friendly staff, cozy atmosphere, and good food. Although the menu is rather small and they only had one special, everyone found something they liked. The avocado raviolis were delicious. The sole was also very good but beware as it is not fileted so you have to pick around the pins/bones. Others ordered the pork roast, lamb, and steak: all were enjoyed.
