Amsterdam's restaurant landscape ranges from accessible neighborhood restaurants and eateries to Michelin-acclaimed fine dining. In between is a growing middle segment of bistros, gastro bars and restaurant concepts that are committed to quality without ceremony. Reservations are now the norm in Amsterdam, especially on weekends and at popular establishments. Some of the restaurants work exclusively with reservations through their own websites or through a reservation tool.
Restaurants are scattered throughout the city, but a few neighborhoods stand out. De Pijp has a high density of international restaurants along Ferdinand Bolstraat and Van Woustraat. The Jordaan combines Italian trattorias with neighborhood cafes and French bistros. Utrechtsestraat in the center is one of the city's most varied restaurant streets. Amsterdam East and North have developed a rapidly growing selection in recent years. For neighborhood-specific addresses, see the community pages on Amsterdam Now.
