$$ Fodor's Choice

It's become a bit of a tourist favorite, but many Amsterdammers still believe that this is the best Indonesian rijsttafel in town—so if you're looking for the ultimate Amsterdam dining experience, this is the place to go. Menu choices include fish, meat, and vegetarian rijsttafels; all are fresh, well spiced, and full of authentic flavors. The design is ultramodern, with lacquered red walls that set off giant vintage family photos from the era of the Dutch East Indies.
