‘t Vliegertje

Well, I have been there twice.
The first time, my order was simple forgotten about… I have reminded the waiter about myself after half an hour of waiting. She said that she cannot find anything in the system and she doesn’t know who took the order…
Then she tried to make the situation a bit nicer for me and offered me a free beer. As it was already late in the night I have just left as I didn’t want to wait another hour for the food.
But I really wanted to try the food there so I have returned the following day. This time I finally got my food. It was good, but the service is quite awful. You always have to remind at least twice what you have ordered. Otherwise you won’t get it.
I’ve heard it is normal in the Netherlands. But it is not an excuse for me.

Good food
This restaurant is 5 minutes to the north of the RAI center. Situated at a street with many other restaurants. It has a small outdoor area and some tables inside. It looked like a classical restaurant.
The food was really great. The steak was tender and well cooked. The toffee cake was inspiring as well. The other dishes looked good as well.
The service was a bit slow and unable to cope with us as we were a larger group, but they tried their best. A bit a shame was the selection of beers, as the seemed to not have many thereof.

Awesome value on the 3 course set meals. :) we had the ribs, steak and tuna as mains. Starters of pumpkin soup and ravioli. All were amazing. Special mention to the yummy ribs. I think its a must try here. The service staff are really friendly too. All in all a great place to dine in for a casual dinner. :) oh yes, there is free wifi here too!

Ate dinner here with a group of 8 from work. We made reservations and were seated promptly and ordered drinks and appetizers (Turkish bread and truffelrissottoballen, both delicious) even though the whole group had not arrived. The staff was prompt, friendly and attentive to our group, even as the place got a bit more crowded.
Six people ordered the ribs and two had lamb. There were plenty of ribs and they were very tasty. We also ordered extra fries for the table. Everyone enjoyed their meals.
It is a laid back atmosphere with a mix of families, couples and groups enjoying dinner and drinks.
I will definitely be back to enjoy more ribs!

Decent food, very nice staff, not as expensive as Unilocal says it is. I ate outside on a lovely evening — be prepared for smoking at neighboring tables.

The restaurant is great! We went there with 7 people, two were kids and had a wonderful time. We made early reservations because of the little people, so it was not crowded. The staff was attentive, friendly and fast. The food was amazing. I had the ribs and my 5 year old son had the kids portion of them. They are delicious and so plentiful. My husband had the steak kebobs with peanut sauce– wonderful! The turkish bread was light and crunchy and warm. The lobster broth is fabulous, the creamy foam on top was sinful. I’m so excited that this place is a few blocks away from us. Wonderful!!!

This is a great little café with a comfortable space, friendly staff and great food. We ordered a Turkish bread starter that was really delicious, and then had a standard salad and entrée dinner. Everything was well-​prepared and as good as any other restaurant we visited in the Amsterdam area so far. I would definitely go back.
