15 February 2025

It's striking that classics and nostalgic dishes are becoming increasingly popular. Back to basics, but good ones. French cuisine (one of the most classic in the world) is also gaining ground, especially the more rustic dishes. So, are you looking for the tastiest oeuf mayo in Amsterdam? You'll find it at one of the restaurants below.

14 X Here you can eat the tastiest oeuf mayo in Amsterdam

Bistro Toast

At the new Bistro Toost in Amstelveen, you'll feel like you're in a classic bistro. This establishment is co-owned by the two-Michelin-star restaurant Aan de Poel, which is directly across the street. However, this place is much more accessible than its neighbor. While Van de Poel is all about fine dining, Bistro Toost is a bit more relaxed. And that's precisely the charm the owners were looking for: a relaxed atmosphere in a bistro setting. The menu features dishes from various countries, from French oeuf mayonnaise with anchovies and crispy capers and lobster soup to sashimi.

R. de Rosa

No classic oeuf mayo, but a "ei de Rosa" is on the menu at this cozy wine bar in the Jordaan. This house signature dish is served with tarragon mayonnaise and little gem cheese. With a matching glass of wine, of course.

Café Restaurant Amsterdam

Few places are as well-known to both young and old as Café Restaurant Amsterdam. This spot near Westerpark not only boasts an iconic location but also an equally fantastic menu. "Just act normal, that's crazy enough," is the motto. Here you'll find classics from all corners of the globe – from Italy to France and the Netherlands – but spring rolls are also on the menu. And of course, eggs mayonnaise are a must.

Wils Bakery Café

Joris Bijdendijk (known for RIJKS* and Wils*) also owns the unique Wils Bakery Café on Stadionplein. Wils Bakery Café is a combination bakery and bistro, making it the gourmet sister of Michelin-starred restaurant Wils, located on the third floor of the building. Wils Bakery Café offers the best of both worlds, as you can walk in without a reservation for classic lunch and bread dishes, as well as eggs and mayonnaise. In the summer, Wils Bakery Café also has a lovely terrace where you can linger for hours.

Libertine Café and Libertine Café Des Prés

After the Libertine Café on Noordermarkt, the owners have opened a second establishment: Libertine Café Des Prés. This small bistro on Gerard Douplein exudes the same French charm as its larger counterpart in the city center. A classic French interior, a welcoming terrace, and plenty of nostalgic details give the place a relaxed atmosphere. You can also visit any time of day, even for your portion of oeufs mayonnaise.

Bouchon du Centre

Within walking distance of Carré, you'll find a little slice of France, inspired by the 19th-century "bouchon Lyonnais." These were small kitchens where women, who had previously cooked for the bourgeoisie, began serving simple meals as a new source of income. Bouchon du Centre revives that history with classic yet simple French dishes. As you might expect, oeufs mayo is a constant on the menu.

Café Cenc

The former Bambino building now houses Café Cenc Amsterdam, a fine restaurant from the owners of Bar Parry and Balthazar's Kitchen. The menu features tasty snacks and small dishes, such as Noorderkaas with piccalilli and taramasalata with pickled cucumber, as well as classic oeufs mayonnaise. For main courses, there's a concise but good selection.

At Boeuf Amsterdam (the diner version of Oeuf Amsterdam), they also know how to handle eggs. Of course, eggs with mayonnaise take center stage on the menu, but you can also enjoy delicious burgers, French fries, and espresso martinis like nowhere else.

Odette's buffet

Buffet van Odette has been a fixture in Amsterdam for years, thanks in part to their delicious egg mayonnaise. The menu is otherwise classic French, and weather permitting, the terrace is a great place to relax.

Can you picture yourself strolling past artworks that transform streets, parks, and canals into a fairytale, with a hot chocolate or mulled wine in hand? 📍From North Holland to Gelderland, I'm sharing all the tips in a comprehensive article on Your Little Black Book, featuring the best light festivals in almost every province in the Netherlands.
