Café Parlotte

So nice place to meet your friends. The wine selection was excellent — really well curated and enjoyable. However, to be honest, the food menu didn’t impress me that much. The duck in the salad was quite cold, almost as if it had just come out of the fridge, and the portion of the main course was very small.

Our group enjoyed a delicious dinner at Cafe Parlotte and the staff could not have been friendlier or more helpful. Lighting and ambience were also on point. Food was very good but perhaps not quite on par for what would be expected for a €100+ per person dinner. The Côte de Boeuf with garnish was good but was slightly overcooked, and had too much gristle and fat for €85. The accompanying potatoes were perfectly crusty on the outside and soft and velvety on the interior. Perfecto. The grilled octopus with chorizo and parsley was also slightly overcooked and as a result, was a little chewy. The terrine de campagne with cornichon (a rustic French country-style pâté made with ground pork and often pork or chicken liver, baked in a loaf pan, and served cold with tiny pickled cucumbers (cornichons), crusty bread, and Dijon mustard) was very good, but not a highlight of the dinner as the clams were. The wine list was the star of the evening and included so many great wines. The weekly special of veal was perfectly cooked. The selection of cheeses was also delicious with four cheeses from various European locales. The dried tuna with almonds was very good but would have paired better with slightly salted almonds instead of the bland saltless ones (or some other item entirely). Our "fish" (skate) was cooked as well as could have been, given that it's skate, and had a very nice flavor. The clams with coriander, garlic, and piment d'espelette was especially delicious with just the right amount of heat. Be sure and get extra bread for the leftover juice at the bottom. The chocolate mousse was heaven. Thank you to Café Parlotte for a wonderful evening with friends.

Cafe Parlotte is a cozy bistro-style wine bar in the Jordaan area. It has a nice wine selection at fair prices, and the food’s really solid too — perfect for snacking or settling in for a proper meal. The vibe is lively but welcoming, with lots of regulars. We had a white Priorat and a white Saint Joseph — both are great wines you don’t often see in casual bars. Definitely one of the better places in Amsterdam if you’re looking to enjoy a good glass.

Steak was cooked to perfection . Loving the buzzing bistro vibes . Service was honestly pretty decent for amsterdam , alittle slow with the output of food but other than that everything was great !

I recently dined at a very busy yet cozy restaurant, where the ambiance was lively and the staff were friendly. The food was delicious, and the extensive wine list was impressive. The only downside was the boxes stacked within the dining area which was a bit distracting. Still, a great dining experience overall.

Good cheese selection, octopus and asparagus bites. The chocolate dessert with caramel was delicious. The atmosphere inside was charming and the service very attentive. Good place for a nice date or friends gathering.

Updated: Finally got a chance to sit down for an extended lunch here. Was not disappointed. Excellent seasonal dishes with great small bites on the side. We had oysters and grilled foie gras as starters. Then an excellent salad, followed by entrecote and pistachio desert. Would recommend (if you can get a reservation) Old: Fantastic venue. I've tried their home delivery menu, but also walked there to get a smash burger, french dip sandwich and lobster rolls. All mouthwatering delicious. Friendly owner too. Can't recommend enough.

### Cafe Parlotte Review Cafe Parlotte is always a treat to dine at. The restaurant offers a good variety of changing menus that keep the dining experience fresh and exciting. The selection of wines is excellent, and the staff's knowledge of wines enhances the overall experience. The friendly staff adds to the welcoming atmosphere, making each visit enjoyable and memorable. Will dine here soon again.
