Wonderful, beautiful, delicious - Edit
Everything at Bonboon is wonderful. You can opt for five or four courses (and choose which one you skip) and optionally have a wine or tea pairing. The dishes are usually fantastic (creative, tasty, beautifully presented) and the wines too. Service is excellent.

Culinair afhalen :) - Edit
Tijdens de lockdowns hebben wij een aantal keer het heerlijke menu van Bonboon afgehaald in Amsterdam. Ook met kerst hadden wij het heerlijke kerstmenu met verrassende aardperen, knapperige boerenkool en een zeer zuur sprankelend dessert.
Read morePros: Duidelijke omschrijving van het menu, Heerlijke uitgebalanceerde smaken

Vegan fine dining - Edit
Absolutely incredible food. It’s a set menu, you just decide how many courses you want. Every single course was original and delicious! Not cheap but reasonably priced for the quality.

Interessante gerechten - Edit
Leuk gegeten, de gerechten vragen erom heel bewust geproefd te worden. Deel van de gerechten was goed, maar niet alle smaakcombinaties klopten voor ons gevoel. De witte rijst had vervangen mogen worden voor zilvervliesrijst.

Amazing food! - Edit
Vegan restaurant with one menu and you opt either for 3, 4 or 5 courses. They have accompanying wines and drinks. Tastes are very refined and the plates look like little works of art. We sat outside in the window that overlooked the IJ and it was just a magical Amsterdam evening. Everything came on time, staff (I think she is running it all alone!!) was lovely. I would just highly recommend, it was exactly the experience I was looking for and met all my expectations. They have a terrace outside but inside is nice too. This is Amsterdam more than all the big joints in the city centre!

Super goed gegeten! - Edit
Hier gegeten voor m’n verjaardag. We kozen voor het 5-gangen menu. Alles was super lekker. Normaal ben ik niet zo van de lokale groenten uit angst voor van dat flauwe Hollandse eten, maar dat is hier helemaal niet aan de orde. Deze mensen kunnen echt goed koken! Super goede smaakcombinaties en uiteraard alles super vers! De bediening was daarnaast vriendelijk, oprecht en authentiek. Ook de setting was erg fijn; hier kan je ontspannen en sfeervol dineren. Zeker een aanrader!

Wonderful vegan food. My omnivore friends and I especially loved the mains. The Starters were too small for our liking. Friendly and professional service, all in all a bit pricey though.

Relaxed and warm atmosphere, friendly service, wonderful vegan dishes - Edit
Well, this was a really pleasant surprise. Since my wife and I switched to a plant-based diet, we have tasted lots of lovely foods over the years. But it does not happen often that everything clicked so perfectly as at Bonboon. The warm and welcoming atmosphere. The delicious amuse-bouches. The wonderful dishes. It made for a wonderful dining experience.
Read moreHighly recommended.
We ordered the:
King oyster mushroom & seaweed ‘scallops’- creme of Jerusalem artichoke - capers - hazelnut - grapefruit air
Sauerkraut donut - coffee powder - sauce of fermented green apple - carrot & apple
Smoked pumpkin - cavolo nero - chesnut vinaigrette - apple cider jelly - nut & lentil roast
Roasted cauliflower - korma sauce - falafel of baba ganoesh- chimichurri - black rice - naan
Chocolate mousse- pumpkin cake- coffee syrup- hazelnut & orange soil
Cheese platter of vegetable cheeses

Thumbs Up - Edit
Really glad we made the treck out of the city to visit this gem. The only downside would be location as everything was fantastic. We has the 3 course menu and it was just really lovely, they even changed a few things for me for my nut allergy. Have already decided to return for Christmas meal when my family visits for the USA😄Definitely give this one a try.

Must go restaurant! - Edit
This cozy restaurant in East is absolutely great. The taste of the dishes is great and only 35 euros for a 3 course menu. To me this is way too cheap for the quality of food you get served. The dishes are not average, but high quality plantbased. And if you have missed blue cheese..go for the cheese platter. The place is run by ladies btw :-)

Amazing food and lovely staff - Edit
This place is one of the best vegan restaurants I’ve been to. It is quite small and simple, but the food is amazing. They offer only three starters, mains and desserts to choose from, but I seriously had trouble deciding what to have since everything sounded so delicious (and it also was!!). All dishes were beautifully presented and offered new tasting experiences. The woman there was really friendly and helpful. I can truly recommend it!

OMG!! - Edit
Do not let the location or place itself fool you. The food here is incredible!! Utterly the best vegan food I have ever tasted, anywhere in the world. If there was a sixth, seventh or tenth star, I would give that to this place. The restaurant is a bit out of the way and the place itself is a little sparse, utterly disguising the gastronomic delights that the incredibly talented chef has up her sleeve. If you like vegan food, you will love this place!
Read morePros: Fabulous fabulous FABULOUS food!
