Great 3 course vegan menu - Edit
They serve 1 vegan and 1 vega menu a day. As I don’t like coconut they adjusted my menu which was much appreciated! Lots of attention to flavor.

Excellent vegan 4 course meal - Edit
Currently the restaurant opens at 5 p.m. A 3 or 4 course vegetarian or vegan surprise meal is offered with or without wine pairing. We did the 3 course with wine pairing and it was amazing. Romantic and special without being snooty. It was expensive for us, but worth every penny. Service was excellent as well.
Read moreJust visited this restaurant again with hubby for a 4 course vegan surprise meal with wine pairing. It was AMAZING. The chef is very creative and we enjoyed every morsel of everything. Again, totally worth the expensive price tag for a lovely night out. Our table was very romantic, seated at the window with candles burning.

Excellent experience - Edit
What a great evening! My omni travel companion and I experienced the 4 course vegan and vegetarian surprise menus with wine pairing. Each course was delicious! The service was top notch. This is a splurge meal, but it was well worth it on our vacation!

Amazing cooking - Edit
May be the most perfectly cooked meal of my life. Quality ingredients cooked right in creative dishes that just taste good. My only complaint is that I was still a little hungry at the end of the four course surprise vegan meal, which for €48 isn't cheap. Really enjoyed every bite.

Gourmet - Edit
If you're into your gastronomy, this is easy to recommend. Shame it's not actually vegan but there you are. They have a set menu called a surprise menu of three or four courses, which of course you can't foresee except that they ask for allergies and any foodstuffs you can't bear, and whether you want vegetarian or vegan. All my courses had something with an unusual twist, especially the dessert.
Read morePros: Carefully, well put-together recipes, Nice wines, Nice atmosphere
Cons: Gourmet portions , Bike parking space outside is limited

Absolutely fantastic - Edit
To do what De Waaghals does requires real skill. My partner and I both thoroughly enjoyed the vegan and vegetarian set menus on our visit. The attentive wait staff and the superb wine pairing made the evening even better. We shall definitely be returning on our next trip to Amsterdam.

Heerlijk, inspirerend en verrassend - Edit
Misschien wel mijn favorite restaurant. Vanuit Baarn reis ik zeker eens per jaar naar Amsterdam om te dineren dit restaurant. Ik ben keer op keer weer gefascineerd en verrast door de heerlijke veganistische gerechten. Met nieuwe inspiratie rij ik telkens weer terug naar huis.

Super leckeres Überraschungsmenü - Edit
Es war super lecker und gemütlich. Außergewöhnliche Gemüseküche! Es gibt immer ein vegetarisches und ein veganes Überraschungsmenü. In Amsterdam ist ansonsten viel Fast Food - das Waaghals ist definitiv etwas anderes. Gerne wieder!

Lot of VERY tasting vegan options - Edit
Old vegetarian restaurant that is starting to improve. We were Always happy to have this vegetarian restaurant in Amsterdam. Long before all the trendy vegan restaurants came, this place was there to take care of us😉
Read moreI am very happy how the restaurants is improving. Really nice tastes. Although I could eat more than they serve one portion, it is nice that they bring the tastes to a next level and that there is so much delicate tastes combinations. I think for vegans this place has marvellously grown! There are so much vegan dishes these days. And they have also changed that the 'V' at a dish is Always vegan (instead of a veganize option how it used to be).
Friendly, down to earth staff. Restaurant is situated very close to the Albert Cuyp in the Pijp in Amsterdam.

Small portions - Edit
The portions are very small. So unless you take a full menu, you will leave the place hungry. We are not big eaters. I mentioned the staff that the content of our main dish potato curry/ lentil stew was very small but no action was taken, not even a piece of bread was offered. Waaghals used to be a good value/quality restaurant. Not anymore. Dishes were tasty but really not enough.
Read morePros: Tasty food
Cons: Expensive as you will end up ordering a full menu

Some original food - Edit
Cosy place, with menu changing monthly, and inspired each month to a certain country. When we visited a Moroccan menu was offered: harira, olive tapenade, and couscous with spicy vegetables. We also tried seitan and beans with polenta, which was pretty good.
