Getting a good service and a delicious menu for a good price/quality in Amsterdam can be tricky. Well at Contrast we got everything on such a professional level. Pablo (the sommelier) made our evening wonderful. He is so passionate, kind and thoughtful. He will give you the best explications and anecdotes about the wine or the menu. The food was delicious with seasonal products. And the interior design/location is absolutely amazing! You will travel the whole evening

Brilliant dishes with loads of variety. Service a bit too slow to our taste (3,5 hours on an 8-element menu), and maybe lacked a queen meal with an absolutely unique ingredient. The high-point: design, organic wines, service quality (not the speed), deserts and a brilliant clam The low-point: speed of delivery and a complete fish-head dish which was not really nice and fine-dining friendly. Still, a really complete and unique experience in the ports of Amsterdam.

A hidden gem in Amsterdam Noord, only a few minutes walking from the NDSM ferry. Shared dining inspired by modern Iberian cuisine complemented by a compact but very good selection of beers, cocktails and wines. The large windows with views towards the NDSM and across the Ij towards Amsterdam together with the passionate Spanish chefs and the rest of the team complete the experience. We went there for lunch but can’t wait to go there for dinner!
