Reviews
Rare that I ever offer 5 stars, but the food here was exemplary! To be honest, my wife had tried to find a good Chinese restaurant that seemed reasonably priced with previous reviews from Google. When we arrived, the restaurant was empty apart from a couple sitting eating outside. I was a little apprehensive that how quiet it was could mean that it wasn’t quite as good as reviews, but my wife then accosted the couple eating outside and asked if their food was any good and they said it was excellent and they were returning guests. We were greeted by staff and given the option whether to eat inside or out, with my wife opting to eat inside as it was starting to get a little chilly outside. We were given the menu, and being hungry, we ordered quite a lot of food. The waitress was kind enough to prompt us that it may be too much food for two people, but she also said she could pot up anything that was left over. We ordered the mixed starter, kong po shrimp, Japanese udon noodles with shrimp and chicken and then finally the chicken in curry sauce (the mains come with plain rice). The food arrived promptly (but not too quickly. At no point did we ever feel rushed) Then just wow! Excellent food. My favourite was the Japanese udon noodles, which I’d describe as a simple dish but was so full of flavour. All the food was truly excellent and the best meal out we’ve had out for a long time. By the time we left, the restaurant was nicely busy. Would 100% recommend.
Great Asian fusion on a quiet side street This is a really good, reliable fusion spot that we highly recommend. The Japanese noodles with protein were excellent and flavorful, and the Pad Thai was also a very solid, tasty classic. The service was incredibly warm and friendly, and the restaurant's location on a quiet side street gives it a cozy, authentic atmosphere. Price-wise, it is not cheap, but it’s not too expensive either—very fair for the great quality and portions. We would gladly come back!
Wow, best place I have ever had noodles. So fresh and portion size is huge! Loads of meat and seafood in there so very generous. Also a lovely friendly place where staff are welcoming. We went twice on our 4 day trip as the food was so good we didn't want to eat elsewhere. If you like Asian food, then this place is where to go. I wish we had one in London.
I order three dishes. First one is chicken with lemongrass this diish is very delicious and others is tom kha chicken and cantonese friend rice. Everything is very good and staffes are very kind and take care. If I have chance to come back here again . I will come back this restaurant for sure.
Delicious food and fantastic service. We enjoyed so much we went back for a second night. We were served by the politest young man who was an absolute joy. Tasty Asia is a real gem in Amsterdam. Highly recommend thank you.
