Lars Amsterdam

"Combining an industrial vibe with an intimate living room feel, Lars is situated at the end of the Houthavens and boasts stunning views across the water. In the kitchen, the ambitious Lars Scharp plays with French traditions and fresh Asian flavours to create bold contemporary dishes that are a world away from traditional cuisine." - Michelin Inspector

I had a wonderful dinner with my husband. The food is delicious and beautiful, mix of flavors and texture combined with the perfect wine pairing and service. Chef Lars greeted all the customers, coming to the tables more than once in the evening. It is for sure one of my favorite Michelin star restaurants in the Netherlands. When we left we got a small bottle of water and a chocolate to go. Details that make a difference. I'll be back soon.

First time here, definately worth visiting again. Great dishes with excellent pairing. Flavours and textures on point, will relish our visit for some time. Free parking if you ask, extra goodies if you keep asking. Nearly fully booked on a Saturday evening, book now, before the crowds start to discover this beauty!

The Venue 🚪📍 The ambiance was elegant yet inviting, setting the perfect tone for an unforgettable LUNCH experience. The view is amazing and the terrace is stunning. The restaurant is located in hotel Moxy in De Houthavens. The food 🍽️ The food was nothing short of exquisite. Each dish was a masterpiece, beautifully presented and full of flavor. Also a perfect balance of textures and tastes. The chef took good care about the dietary limitations. The service 👩‍💼👨‍💼👨🏼‍🍳 What truly elevated the experience was the service. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the food they were serving. We were serviced by a lovely lady and a humorous gentleman (a very charming Asian man 🥰😑😳). They paired the menu and wine with enthusiasm, offering recommendations that perfectly complemented our tastes. It was for our moms birthday and they arranged balloons 🎈 and a vase for the flowers. On top of that they offered us many things complimentary ☺️ Price 💷 I found this restaurant via Dining with the stars. The lunch was extremely affordable if you look what we got served. Even without the offer - it would be worth the value as well. Parking 🅿️ You can park under the restaurant, garage Houthaven. You need to follow the PINK parking area which refers to MOXY HOTEL. The restaurant is in the hotel. You get a exit ticket from the restaurant - so it is free. Overall, this Michelin star restaurant exceeded all my expectations. I have been to quite ⭐️ restaurants but this one is now on top of my list.

First time in a Michelin restaurant and first time here… we chose the vegetarian menu 6 courses, and WOW! We loved everything literally everything! Compliments to the chef and to the entire team, and we will definitely come back! See you soon! ✨

LARS gets many things right! We enjoyed a 6-course menu featuring a lot of creative dishes, with the Tom Kha Kai being particularly remarkable and innovative. A standout part of the experience is Lars himself, who personally welcomes you to the restaurant, adding a unique and personal touch. While not every dish fully convinced us taste-wise, the overall experience was excellent, and we had a great evening. Definitely worth a visit!

What a night! A huge recommendation if you want a lovely time with amazing food and wine for a very fair price. We had the chef’s special and the exclusive course - it was far better than we had hoped for and definitely worth every penny! The service was impeccable - both waiters were attentive, kind and gave great recommendations for our stay in Amsterdam. We especially recommend and loved the service from the female waiter - it’s very apparent that she is a natural and brilliant server, and she gave us a very special night ♥️ All love from us!

It was worth it! Great place, ambiance and service. Lars was off but the chef greeted every table! I got there early when the opened and were still setting up but they easily accommodated me. I am away on business and went solo! I would return with Family and friends! Menu: basically 3 choices of 5 or 6 courses (one vegetarian (not vegan), two mixed with meat, fish, etc. food starts coming right away! Small bites followed the courses. I went with the vegetarian option and it was spectacular. I did 6 but would have been fine with 5 courses. Each bite was full of flavor and thoughtful construct. Inspired by traditional components with a modern twist. Wine: lots of bottles to choose from. I had one glass of a German wine that tasted like a Pinot noir. I forgot the name. It was suggested and very nice. Ambiance. Located in more of a commercial part of town it's away from city center but easy to access. Lots of seating but it filled up with all the reservations. I suggest a reservation. Cost seemed appropriate for the detail, quantity, quality and flavor. I wondered about the quantity of food and left very satisfied. In fact I would have had less bread it it was so tasty and I like bread with the condiments provided!

I feel this restaurant may have relaxed a bit after receiving a Michelin star. My wife and I were here in our 3 day Amsterdam and had high hopes but the service was terrible. Dutch customers were well taken care of but we couldn't get anyone to even look our way. I say they may have relaxed because there was a large sign that said "you've got an effing Michelin star now". The staff was super relaxed and chatty - to themselves. 40 minutes after serving the last dessert not a single server had come over to check on us or even look in our direction. I have no idea what we did to deserve this. I have a bib gourmand meal in Reims France that was twice as delicious, 100x better service, and half the cost. Extremely disappointed in the cost to experience.

This was our one "special meal" during a 3-day trip to Amsterdam. I found them when I typed Michelin Amsterdam restaurants and the menu looked good. Please note, they don't have a Michelin star yet, but perhaps they are on the cusp. Quite busy for a Thursday dinner. An excellent dinner on 3/23/22. Had the five course tasting menu. The a la carte options listed are not available as stand alone, rather they can be substituted into the multi course menu with an upcharge, €100 for Wagyu, €46 for Lagoustine, etc. We stuck with the published menu. The restaurant served us two kinds of Amuse bouche before the courses arrived - hamachi, crab, mushroom risotto, lamb (3-ways), and Granny Smith Apple. We swapped out one dessert for the cheese tray. The food all tasted very good. Service was spotty at times, but nothing that affected our experience. Would love to visit again!

This restaurant was really impressive. Three of us went for lunch today. They have a menu where you pick from 3 to 6 of the courses. It all tasted fresh and the chef is clearly passionate about his food. We had some little amuse bouche bites in between courses. I love it. I'd like to go back again for dinner when they bring out a new menu.

Just went for dinner here, as it is the only restaurant around. Had a 4 course menu, which really was delicious. The first course with hamachi, coriander, ponzu, cucumber and miso was one of the best things I had for a while and I visited a few 2 and 3 Michelin star restaurants in the last months. The sole was a nice dish, but not that extraordinary. The Pheasant was ok, some peaces great, one a little chewy. The bloodpudding was really good and the sauerkraut also. The dessert of chocolate, mango and ginger was really nice. I also got 2 amuse bouche in front and one before the dessert. All really delicious. The restaurant should have a Michelin star soon. Menu changes every few weeks.

This is a gem in Amsterdam, we went for dinner last week. The food is very subtle and sophisticated. High class, great chef! You should absolutely give it a try. Great experience! I will go again when I am back in Amsterdam.
