Tomodachi Teppanyaki

Tomodachi Teppanyaki is a brand-new restaurant in the center of Amsterdam. It's small but incredibly charming, thanks in part to the personal attention each customer receives from the chef and owner. The menu changes at least seasonally, and the unique dishes are freshly prepared for you. And the dishes? They're delicious; we're especially fond of the Black Tiger Shrimp! We've also found the fresh lobster to be more delicious than anywhere else. Definitely recommended. You'll find Tomodachi Teppanyaki on Utrechtsestraat, in the center of Amsterdam.
