A local institution for straightforward steak in a no-nonsense setting. It is not subtle, but it is dependable and very Amsterdam in its practical approach.

Great meal! Party of three enjoyed dinner based on tour guide recommendation. We are staying at the Park Plaza Victoria and wanted restaurant options. We were given five to choose from and based on the menu and reviews, we selected Loetje. So glad we did! We ordered two small beef tenderloins and one small beef tenderloin with garlic. Each of us ordered sautéed mushrooms and shared an order of french fries. The food was delicious. The service was a little slow but that was because the place was packed on a Tuesday evening. Overall we enjoyed our meal and learned the importance of simply enjoying the experience without being rushed! I highly recommend the beef tenderloin with garlic and sautéed mushrooms. Truly a great meal and would enjoy again! Also, we did make same day reservations and felt confident about our decision to do so. You never know the crowd
We had a really pleasant experience overall. Even without a reservation, we were seated almost immediately, which was a great start to our evening. Our table was right by the canal, and the views were beautiful. The concept of dipping the bread into the garlic sauce was a really nice touch, and probably my favorite thing about the meal. The sauce was flavorful and added something special to the experience. The only downside was the food itself was just decent. My steak, in particular came out overcooked, which was a bit disappointing. That said, everything from the atmosphere to the service made the visit enjoyable.
My go to place every time I come to Amsterdam; you know the quality is there every time in this Dutch chain. The Bali tenderloin is my favourite as it’s just slightly spicy and has a kick to it. Sweet potatoes fries and veggies as a side went well. If you don’t like mayo, make sure to tell them before as the fries come with a huge load. Bitterballen for starters for a classic Dutch specialty. Overall food is consistently great here. Service was ok, friendly staff but had to ask several times for more bread/drinks. Location of this particular restaurant is superb, perfect before/after taking the train; with a nice view on the large canal. I booked but I don’t think it was necessary.
The steaks here were very good with a great gravy that complimented the meat. We also had a good steak tartare and mushroom risotto. Was a Tuesday night so the place was not crowded and is nice sitting on the canal. My wife's favorite steak on our European trip. One of our servers was a bit disinterested but overall the service was good, but lost a star.
I had biefstuk ossenhaas bali and sticky toffee, both were excellent. I loved the sauce on the biefstuk bali, it was a very delicious garlic sauce, and the sticky toffee was an amazing dessert, I tried it for the first time. I was lucky to find a table overlooking the canal, I definitely recommend it.
