Rascasse

This restaurant is a surprise, not the usual type of restaurant. When you walk in, there is a counter with different kind of fresh seafood for you to choose. You choose the items you like and the person will wait the item, according to how many people are in the party. Then you pay for the items and they will cook these for you. There are not too many tables in this restaurant. Once the foods are ready, they will bring to the table. The food is delicious and good portion. We paid €40+ for 5 different kind of seafood items. Its a steal. I have been paying for around €100 a dinner (for 2 people) for the past few days. So this dinner is really a very good deal. We will definitely come back if we visit Amsterdam again.

What a disappointment! At first glance, this place might look like a restaurant, but it's actually a fish store with a dining area in the corner. They tried to design it nicely, but there is no music, no atmosphere, and unfortunately, a strong fish smell that seems to be the reason the front door is left open, making the interior uncomfortably cold. The staff was inattentive: they forgot basic things like bringing cutlery, confused parts of our order, and even added a drink to the bill that we never ordered. As for the food, while the fish and seafood were fresh, the preparation left a lot to be desired. Everything was bland, lacking in seasoning, and the execution was poor: some of my shrimps were undercooked, while others were burnt. It might seem like a good value for money at first, but in reality, it just doesn’t deliver. Sadly, I wouldn’t recommend this place.

The best food in Amsterdam. Seafood is fresh, prices are reasonable, and the menu has everything you could ever want. Absolute must-visit spot.

I absolutely love Rascasse, their fish is very tasty and their dishes are perfectly seasoned for an insanely reasonable price! I especially enjoy their paella and squid!

The fish is quite fresh, and the food portions are generous. However, the waiting time was much too long, which affected the overall dining experience.

Tapas Saturday ❤️ Small restaurant/cantine serves tapas, more seafood tapas typical Spanish pescaderia. Casual ambiance, good food what else do you need. Good service too 😋😂 Hidden gem in the east of Amsterdam. 5 of 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Update oktober 2024 Still a great place for fish, we come here 1 or 2 times a month.

Absolutely delicious and the best seafood experience I had in a long time!!! The cook picked it fresh from the display and fried it in a few minutes. The mint tea made with actual fresh mint leafs was a fitting delight. 6 stars bc price was also very fair!!

Oh my such amazing food. The seafood is so fresh. We had a fish plate each + fried shrimp with sauces. Portions are generous and taste is excellente! It was also very quick. Will defintely return.
