De Kas

Top choice in Amsterdam


In a row of stately greenhouses dating to 1926, De Kas has an organic attitude to match its chic glass setting. It grows most of its own herbs and produce right here and the result is incredibly pure flavours and innovative combinations. There's one set menu daily, based on whatever has been freshly harvested. Reserve in advance.
