TWENTYSIX restaurant

When you take the elevator up the 26th floor, you are blown away by a great view. The staff were super friendly and explained every dish that was served. However the food itself was a bit underwhelming, okay is the best way to describe it, nothing stood out in terms of taste, presentation wise it looked amazing, but as soon as you taste it you could tell the taste was bland and it lacked any flavour. The saving grace was the desert, which was good. If you’re looking for a place with food that can give you culinary orgasm I would not recommend this restaurant.

Saw this amazing set of buildings from a train. Googled them and discovered there was a restaurant at the top of one of the buildings with a view across Amsterdam. I found the booking process very easy online. It was simple to record my dietary requirements. We were not prepared for how fantastic the whole experience would be. From the moment we walked into the building, we were greeted in a friendly and helpful way. The service from the start to finish was top notch! And the food, heavenly. We had the set lunch menu and our tastebuds were in heaven from the first bite. I think the chef must love his work as it transferred to the food we ate. The decor was sumptuous and tasteful. The view was fantastic. Do yourself, and your tastebuds a favour and check this restaurant out. The price was around €130 and included the set menu and several drinks. PS: My gluten free dietary requirements were met with minimal changes to the menu.

It is wonderful to have such a high end vegetarian experience (they also have seafood and meat options if desired). The food was artfully arranged with an interesting and creative combination of flavors making it a feast for both the eyes and stomach. Portion size was perfect for a tasting menu. As a side note I must say I was very impressed with the ability of the staff to describe the ingredients in English. Of course we are spoiled that everyone here has a basic command of English, but it is something else to be able to explain all the ingredients and preparations for so many small but complex dishes. Thank you!

26 is a true gem. The beautiful design, from the sophisticated decor to the perfect lighting, creates an amazing atmosphere. The chef's culinary creations are unique and delicious, and their willingness to accommodate requests shows true passion. The staff is professional, attentive, and makes the entire experience seamless. It's a fantastic spot for a special meal. Val aan!

Will return! Great first experience last week Saturday for lunch. Pleasantly surprised. Wonderful flavours from the Lute team and gentle service. Overall ambiance…a bit of cosmopolitan flair has arrived in Amsterdam!

What an amazing lunch menu, 100% vegan (fish and meat options available)! Loved the scenery and view over the city. We'll definitely return!

Our timing was perhaps impeccable, thus we had the place to ourselves. First, the view—unparalleled in Amsterdam. Service was timely, attentive, and unobtrusive. Food was beautifully presented, imaginative, and yummy. My fave, the garlic roasted carrot sliced unimaginably thin on a bed of pearl barley with a miso carrot purée/soup. Will be back as soon as possible. :-)

Very nice restaurant. By entering the lift you immediately feel like you’re heading to an exclusive place. The food is delicious.
