Chill and delicious - Edit
If you're looking for a place to eat which offers great food and professionality but also a laid back and chill ambience then The Meets is the place for you. Friendly and professional staff, cozy and chill, laid back interior and ambience, and most importantly well made and good food served in an eye catching manner. I highly enjoyed the dishes I ordered and will absolutely return.
Read moreThough the dishes are somewhat high in price for their size, 2 dishes and a dessert were enough to fulfill me. Price-wise it's up to standard and maybe even a little on the cheaper side for Amsterdam.
Pros: 100% vegan, Excellent food, Nice people and atmosphere

Great meal - Edit
The Arancini was fantastic. Strong and crunchy exterior with an inside that is bursting with flavour. Delicious!
Read moreThe Wellington had tons of different flavours around the plate, all good in their own way, but they also all complimented each other very well.
Restaurant itself is warm and inviting. Great vibe overall. Fantastic meal! Would recommend for date night.

Amazing Vegan Cuisine - Edit
This place is one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to. I got the Chef’s flight which consisted of four items: arancini rice ball, eggplant parm with vegan cheese, fried oyster mushrooms and artichoke heart.
Read moreFully vegan and even my non-vegan friend absolutely loved the food as well.
We also got the riced cauliflower and crispy potato starter that I am going to figure out how to make…it was SO good!!

Wow - Edit
I have been to countless vegan restaurants, including the best of the best in NYC, and this food was *amazing.* Truly outstanding, and unique as well. I got the chef’s menu and it was so fun being surprised with every new dish and each one was 😍😍😍😍😍😍. It was also lovely speaking with one of the servers (she may have been the owner? I’m not sure) about the layers of flavor in the food; they clearly care a lot about the experience of eating at their establishment. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Just amazing - Edit
I took the "chefs menu" and got high class food at its best. Every course was tasty and was nice modern fod with an Italian style. The staff was friendly and sometimes the chef serves at the table aswell. The chefs menu comes with 4 courses and if you want to eat everything, the portions are a little bit too big.
Read morePros: Modern food, Good price, Nice ambiente

Would give 10 stars if I could! - Edit
What a GORGEOUS restaurant. The staff were incredible and couldn't do enough for us, the food was absolutely perfect in every way - flavours balanced out, generous servings, authentic home-made food. I wish I lived here so I could go every week!
Read moreI had the asparagus to start, then the gnocchi and finished with the pear and *extra* crumble. UNREAL!
Pros: Fully Vegan menu, 3 courses for under 40EUR, Wonderful staff and friendly environment

Leuk restaurant, aardige mensen, heerlijk eten - Edit
We werden enthousiast ontvangen en mochten binnen zitten ook al hadden we buiten gereserveerd. Heel leuk aangekleed, beetje huiskamer idee. De muziek was net niet te hard. Eten is 100% vegan. Je kunt kiezen uit een aantal voorgerechten, heel veel kleine gerechten en drie hoofdgerechten. En uiteraard toetjes: 4 stuks. Ongeveer 10 soorten bier, zelfgemaakte ice tea, een uitgebreide wijnkaart en nog meer. Het eten werd snel gebracht en was heerlijk. Veel smaaksensaties en goede combinaties. Bediening is snel en heel vriendelijk.

Pros: Heerlijk vegan eten, Uitstekende bediening, Acceptabele prijzen
Cons: Geen buiten plek in de zon, Later op de avond (8 uur) wordt het drukker

Tasty vegan cheese platter - Edit
Love the vibe at the restaurant, relaxed atmosphere.
Read moreI also really liked that you didn't get your food right after ordering. so you had all the time to enjoy & slow down. I ordered the cheese platter as a starter, highly recommended, all the cheeses were delicious. then the ravioli which was also very tasty and as dessert: the chocolate mousse, which was mainly dark chocolate, and very compact. taste was good!

Wonderful atmosphere - Edit
This place is so cute and cozy, and the owners clearly pay attention to detail and want you to feel comfortable here.
Read moreWe got the three-course menu which is a bit too much in my opinion as the dishes are very filling.
I had the eggplant parmigiana as a starter which was absolutely delicious and my favorite part of the meal. It could have done with more salt, however.
Then I continued with the ravioli which were okay, but not really that great in my opinion.
There are only two dessert options, and I choae the chocolate mousse which was quite nice and had a coconut flavor. Could have been a bit sweeter though.
The staff were very attentive and polite, certainly much better than in many other restaurants in Amsterdam.
Would be good if there was a sign on the bathroom door and the mirror in the bathroom was a regular one. You can't really touch up your makeup there.
Pros: Wonderful atmosphere, Attentive and friendly staff
Cons: Could use a bit more salt/have salt on the table, Bathroom a bit difficult to find

The ravioli was delicious, but very little for the price. The rhubarb dessert was really good! The staff were super friendly and you get bread before the meal

One of the best - Edit
Quite possibly one of the best vegan restaurants I’ve been to! We booked a table for six and I was the only vegan, this was not a problem whatsoever with every person leaving the restaurant satisfied and with a huge smile.
Read moreWe were greeted warmly with smiles and shown our table in a great position with a welcoming breeze during the June burst of warmth.
The staff were so informative and helpful and I’ve never seen such a cool and calm head chef in my life. He came across and chatted with us offering an insight into the dishes and even offered an amazing new dish to test (it was superb). Such a lovely guy.
We decided to order all the starters so we could all get a taste of what was on the menu. Quite honestly, on this first course we were ALL blown away with the quality of food delivered to our table, it was amazing! Beautiful balance of flavours and a creative variation of dishes all going down with ease and huge appreciation.
The menu is exactly as I’d hoped i.e. small number of options ensuring all created to perfection. The mains offered were each unique offering variation for different palettes or preferences. I went with the Moqueca as if never even heard of the dish…it was mind blowingly great, honestly! Every person was blown away by the meal.
Desserts I order from other restaurants always seem way too sweet, this is not the case at The Meets. So well balanced with the tartness from the rhubarb and (very) subtle sweetness of agave.
5* all the dishes!
The wine choices were spot on. The cocktails were stunning and the service was exceptional.
If you’re in Amsterdam, I thoroughly recommend you visit The Meets, we had an amazing evening and experience for which I am very grateful to the whole team.

Highclass food - Edit
Probably the best food I ever had in a restaurant.
Read moreReally friendly staff, nice atmosphere and highclass food, you normally dont get.
We had a selection of 4 main dishes and about 4 starters, including a really delicious vegan cheese platter (17.50€) that is meant for two persons, but we shared easily for four.
Main dishes all costed 18.50€, which was reasonable for the experience.
Dishes rotate frequently.
Pros: Wide variety of vegan food, Great atmosphair, Friendly staff
