Comfortable atmosphere, awesome service, great people and amazing food.Posted on mark rasmussenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been here before. I Always make it a priority when I’m in Amsterdam. It never disappoints. Small bistro serving Se Asian food, principally Indonesian, some Balinese and Sumatran influences. Staff and owner are gracious and friendly. They always make me feel like I’m a valued guest. The food can be spicy (which I like) but I’ve heard other tables ask for milder versions and they were happy to accommodate. They have 3 different rijstafels , all fish, vegetarian and a mixed meat. They do good wine pairings at a very reasonable addition. They serve individual dishes as well, many very beguiling and mouthwatering.Posted on Dagmar BlankTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Best Indonesian food I’ve ever had, served by extremely nice staff, in an elegant and comfortable atmosphere. Everything was cooked perfectly, the spices well balanced to make delicious dishes, both vegan/vegetarian and with meat. The wines were also very good, and don’t miss out on the dessert! We had a wonderful evening.Posted on נועם לוטםTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing dining expirience!

I arranged a boat cruise and meal for a team meeting and it was amazing I hight recommend Blue pepper for any occasion corporate, family friends. This place is exceptional.Posted on Monique WilbersTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our company has now been here on two different occasions — one for dinner only and another for dinner with the cruise — and both experiences were fantastic! Three different teams from our company have visited, and everyone came back with the same feedback: the service was a pleasure, the staff were incredibly attentive, and the food was consistently excellent. The dinner alone was already a great experience, but adding the cruise made the evening even more special and memorable. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, allowing us to enjoy time together as a team without worrying about a thing. It’s rare to find a place that delivers such quality and consistency, no matter the occasion. Highly recommended for anyone looking for amazing food, excellent service, and an unforgettable group experience. I would for sure visit the Blue Pepper privately as well!
