12 X the best dumplings and gyoza in Amsterdam
Dumplings Kiosk
Next to Westerpark, you’ll find Dumplings Kiosk, a simple kiosk serving the tastiest gyoza in Amsterdam. Be prepared for a long queue, especially in the summer, but it’s worth the wait.
Nassauplein 60, Amsterdam
Mr. Gyoza
At Mr Gyoza in Amsterdam West, they have entirely focused on gyoza and cocktails – a golden combination, in our opinion. Mr. Gyoza can be seen as the true OG; they were the first gyoza bar in the Netherlands and have been serving delicious pan-fried gyoza and other Asian delicacies since the beginning.

In a relatively short period, Jen’s Bing has opened not one but two branches: one right across from UvA Roeterseiland and the other just a stone’s throw away from the Ten Katemarkt – where it all began.
