    Very atmospheric place for having a great stake. We tried classic beef which was great, however the speciality of the speciality of the house is horse ???? stakes. Stake comes with complementary fresh salad and fries. Desserts are very tasty.

    Good quality food, fun staff and a small noisy space, combined together, create a very lively atmosphere and make this restaurant what it is. Our food was very good, but we had a fun time surrounded by many large groups ( mainly young men) also having a great time. This venue didn’t appear to be the place you came for a quiet meal or intimate chat. If there is a complaint it’s that we had to wait quite sometime between our stater and main course, most probably due to the large groups ahead. Some would be offended by the deliberate attempt to get a service tip, but on this occasion we were happy to oblige having enjoyed a fun evening

    The food here was wonderful. Unbeknownst to me, the specialty of the restaurant is horse meat. I have never been one to turn down the opportunity to try something new, so I went with the staff recommendation of horse tenderloin with red wine sauce. The meat was incredibly tender and full of flavor while the sauce was well prepared, decadent, and flavorful. Other entrees at the table were the spare ribs, and beef tenderloin with peri peri seasoning/sauce. Both of those options were equally delicious.

    The most tender and succulent tenderloin beefsteak I have ever eaten. Mine was 'a point' my companion's 'saignant'. Both perfect. A rare treat

    The service was very good, but with one or two little hiccups, which were promptly rectified when we reported the missing items. Staff were very friendly, with a good sense of humour, and we had a good rapport with them. The restaurant was quite busy, and being rather small, therefore quite noisy, but that is to be expected, and unavoidable, I suppose. Very enjoyable evening, with terrific food (I had the deliciously tender and tasty horse steak, followed by a very yummy crème brûlée). Very much recommended.

    Typical brown Cafe-esque interior, great attentive and funny staff...made me nostalgic for longing back to Amsterdam as I knew it 20+ years ago. Food was really good, beautiful wine selection ???????????? walked out with Abba still blasting through the restaurant' speakers

    We went there because of the mostly raving reviews on here but were disappointed. We may have been there on the wrong day, but it was extremely busy and very noisy. On top of that staff was very good at avoiding eye contact, so we had to wait more than half an hour after being seated before we got any attention of staff again. We found our starters, Paling on toast and Gebakken mosseltjes, to be somewhat bland in taste, but our mains, both had the calf's liver, were okay, although they were floating in grease. We skipped dessert and even coffee, and just paid the bill, which was as we expected. Obviously this review is based on one single visit and I do believe in second chances, but in this case I think we will leave at the one visit.

    We had a lovely evening here with during our weekend in Amsterdam. Our dog was made so welcome, and given loads of treats by the waiter and other guests! The staff are friendly and attentive, and there is a lovely warm atmosphere. The food was good. Nothing fancy but very tasty. I would definitely recommend it, especially for a relaxed dinner with friends and family.

    This place is not fancy, has some places outside and inside is quite dark, BUT the food is amazing. The waiter who took our order was super nice, made recommendations and they were spot on. We had the diced beef tenderloid with red wine sauce and the beef tenderloid (that has a buttery sauce), and the price includes salad and chips (with delicious ketchup and mayonnaise). We really enjoyed the meat and side dishes! Reasonable price.

    Piet de Leeuw is a good place with very friendly and happy staff that cheers you up, the food is nice well presented and savoury. We eat inside, the place feels old which gives it a nice experience, full of memory’s written in the walls. Went there twice in my stay in Amsterdam, that means something ????

    This is a place where locals go to have a good meal and good conversation. This is not a place for those looking for “fine” dining or attentive service. This was a great place to end a long day with a steak and a beer.

    Part of the Corona check which is extremely sad these people have to do risking a serious fine if not executed … great food, service and atmosphere. . The digestives could be served a little more abundant..

    Starters was good, but that’s it. I toke beef steak and it was rough and cooked badly, actually it was raw. I didn’t recommend it for having some party’s or birthday celebrations.

    We loved the setting. Felt a homey, cozy Dutch pib where everyone knows your name. They serve horse meat but I was not brave enough to try. The beef tenderloin was cooked well, but needed a little sauce and salt. The gorgonzola sauce was a good complement.

    The restaurant was busy on a Friday night - Which is a great sign. However, after being seated, they couldn’t care to give us the menu card for the longest possible time. It was tough gaining their attention to place our order. The good was flavourful and good and portions are a good size. The billing was as much of a struggle as the ordering of food - clearly they are overworked and understaffed. It’s almost like the word “service” doesn’t exist in their dictionary!

    This tucked away restaurant is quite a gem! It is popular with Dutch locals and their invited friends. The food is well-prepared, the service is excellent and the prices are quite reasonable: two medium sized steaks (horse and beef), a salad, potato fries, two glasses of red wine, table water, coffee and ice cream with warm chocolate sauce cost less than 40 Euros. The noise volume is high when it is crowded but the ambience is great.
