Frommer's Review
Think of it as Amsterdam: The Restaurant, because it's quite a performance. Based in a century-old water-pumping station, complete with diesel-powered engine, the Amsterdam has taken this monument of Victorian industrial good taste and made of it a model of contemporary good eats. You dine amidst a buzz of conviviality in the large, brightly lit former pumping hall, which had been so carefully tended by the water workers that some of its elegant decoration didn't even need repainting. Service is friendly and food is good. If you're feeling flush, spring for a double starter of half lobster with six Zeeland oysters. For dessert, the fried sweetbreads are popular. The Amsterdam is a little bit out from the Center, but easily worth the tram ride.
