Oud-West Restaurants

With two of the city’s most multicultural streets—Kinkerstraat and Overtook—this area is a hub for eclectic flavors and international cuisines. From cafes to bars and nightlife venues, it’s a neighborhood that definitely comes alive after dark, while equally scenic by day with the last ring of the canal belt. For a meal in a funky locale, check out a spot that combines Indonesian, Surinamese and classic Dutch in a renovated multi-story car park. On the spicier side, modern, upscale Indonesian restaurants feature menus that evoke the luxury of a royal feast. So eat like a king, and don’t forget to taste other highlights like those scattered throughout the indoor food market, located within a complex that used to service the city’s iconic tram network, authentic Eritrean cuisine, and a tasty slew of other vibrant delights.
