Relaxed and warm atmosphere, friendly service, wonderful vegan dishes - Edit
Well, this was a really pleasant surprise. Since my wife and I switched to a plant-based diet, we have tasted lots of lovely foods over the years. But it does not happen often that everything clicked so perfectly as at Bonboon. The warm and welcoming atmosphere. The delicious amuse-bouches. The wonderful dishes. It made for a wonderful dining experience.
Read moreHighly recommended.
We ordered the:
King oyster mushroom & seaweed ‘scallops’- creme of Jerusalem artichoke - capers - hazelnut - grapefruit air
Sauerkraut donut - coffee powder - sauce of fermented green apple - carrot & apple
Smoked pumpkin - cavolo nero - chesnut vinaigrette - apple cider jelly - nut & lentil roast
Roasted cauliflower - korma sauce - falafel of baba ganoesh- chimichurri - black rice - naan
Chocolate mousse- pumpkin cake- coffee syrup- hazelnut & orange soil
Cheese platter of vegetable cheeses

Thumbs Up - Edit
Really glad we made the treck out of the city to visit this gem. The only downside would be location as everything was fantastic. We has the 3 course menu and it was just really lovely, they even changed a few things for me for my nut allergy. Have already decided to return for Christmas meal when my family visits for the USA😄Definitely give this one a try.

Must go restaurant! - Edit
This cozy restaurant in East is absolutely great. The taste of the dishes is great and only 35 euros for a 3 course menu. To me this is way too cheap for the quality of food you get served. The dishes are not average, but high quality plantbased. And if you have missed blue cheese..go for the cheese platter. The place is run by ladies btw :-)
Read morePros: Cheap for the quality of food , Cozy atmosphere , Delicious food
Cons: No alcohol free wine or beers (IPA)

Amazing food and lovely staff - Edit
This place is one of the best vegan restaurants I’ve been to. It is quite small and simple, but the food is amazing. They offer only three starters, mains and desserts to choose from, but I seriously had trouble deciding what to have since everything sounded so delicious (and it also was!!). All dishes were beautifully presented and offered new tasting experiences. The woman there was really friendly and helpful. I can truly recommend it!

OMG!! - Edit
Do not let the location or place itself fool you. The food here is incredible!! Utterly the best vegan food I have ever tasted, anywhere in the world. If there was a sixth, seventh or tenth star, I would give that to this place. The restaurant is a bit out of the way and the place itself is a little sparse, utterly disguising the gastronomic delights that the incredibly talented chef has up her sleeve. If you like vegan food, you will love this place!
Read morePros: Fabulous fabulous FABULOUS food!
Cons: Slightly sparse atmosphere , (But don’t let that put you off!)

Do it! - Edit
Great for a special occasion, or if you want to spoil yourself! But also not outrageously expensive for Amsterdam, so don’t feel you have to restrict yourself.😄New menu every season, very willing to cater for gluten free, usually have options and also can adapt.

Great food, tacky bean art - Edit
What I experienced in this vegan restaurant is great food and friendly service. In enjoyed 3-course meal deal with their wine suggestions (great option). This place is cosy and I felt welcomed there. What I would do differently is putting away that tacky bean art painting and printed out animal stock photos on the wall, doesnt go together with rest of the vibe and "restaurant" image in my opinion. This place has a great potential, I will come here again.

A proper restaurant - Edit
There are lots of great vegan junk food places in Amsterdam. This isn't one of them. Its the sort of place to go for a special occasion. The food allows the vegetables to take centre stage and if they are fresh, cooked properly and with a bit of imagination will always beat processed stuff hands down. we had the asparagus, which was lovely, but the oyster mushrooms and grilled tofu were amazing. the tofu had a real taste of egg. If your in Amsterdam its well worth a visit.
Read morePros: menu based around the vegetables, very friendly staff who spent time describing food, interesting location
Cons: a little bit out of the centre
Bonboon
Thank you for your great review. And very happy to read that you really liked the oyster mushrooms and grilled tofu. These are also my favorites.

Uitstekend! - Edit
Samen met een vriendin (niet vegan) heb ik bij Bonboon een 3-gangen diner gegeten. Zowel voor-, hoofd- en nagerecht waren heerlijk. We hebben er allebei erg van genoten, en zouden heel graag snel weer terug komen. De prijs-kwaliteit verhouding vind ik uitstekend. Op de foto's zie je onze gangen, het smaakte minstens zo goed als het eruit ziet! Eerlijk waar alleen maar lof voor Bonboon. Zeker de moeite waard!

Probably the best vegan dining option in Amsterdam - Edit
One of the few vegan places in Amsterdam where you can really take the time to enjoy a nice, high quality dinner. This was very much needed in addition to the many vegan fast-food places that were opened in the last years. The dishes are really tasty, often surprising and well-balanced. The owner is very friendly and enthusiastic. I think the pricing is very reasonable, considering the quality of both the dishes and the ingredients used.
Read morePros: High quality dishes, Friendly staff

Gourmet and pricey - Edit
The food is tasty but can’t say it blew my mind. Meals are quite small (starters are tinyyyy) and the service was slow (poor girl in the kitchen was all alone with plenty of orders).
Read moreThe meals were served in a very beautiful way, you see it’s gourmet food but still can’t say I was really impressed with the taste. It was tasty but not WOW.
Main course for 19€, starters for 9€; starters main course dessert 30€ in total. Glass of wine - 7€.
IMHO with these prices food could be a bit more delicious.
Recommend to visit if you’re tired of regular vegan meals served everywhere but also if you aren’t really hungry and aren’t afraid of their prices haha.
Pros: Gourmet
Cons: Pricey , Tiny meals

Very good but pricey food - Edit
Went there in March 2019. I went there because I stayed near this place (a quite remote area from the City Centre) and it was open on Sunday night, and I'm glad I did. I had the plate of lima beans with smoked paprika, freekeh, fennel salad, quince, alioli, smoked tempeh and gondino (19€!) for main course, and the tiramisu for dessert (8.5€). All was very good, and the staff was very friendly despite the weird atmosphere (there was nobody else in the restaurant). But damn it was expensive! I'm all for paying the right price for good ingredients and making sure workers get a decent wage, but I sure couldn't afford this kind of restaurant every month. So, if you're in Amsterdam, and want good food without having to save money, go for it!
Read morePros: Very good food, Friendly staff
Cons: Too expensive for me

Absolutely worth it! - Edit
The food was a real foodexperiance!! Definitely recommended. And a very friendly hostess / owner!
Read more3 gangen menu voor €35,00. Eerste week van april 2019 komt er weer een nieuw menu!
It lies outside the tourist area of Amsterdam but as a tourist (in its own country) it is very worthwhile to visit this vegan restaurant!

Cons: Geen

High quality food, focused on vegetables - Edit
Delicious, well prepared food at this upmarket restaurant on KNSM island. Pricier than mpst other vegan restaurants in Amsterdam but worth it given the quality of the food - three courses for €35. Perfect for a date or small group.
Read moreI had the following dishes, all of which I would recommend:
Fennel salad with tempeh and vegan cheese, for starter
Portobello pie, for main (highly recommended!)
Tiramisu, for dessert
Nice range of beers and wines too. The restaurant is quite a way out from the city centre but worth a visit if you have never been to that part of town.i
Pros: High quality food, Good for couples and small groups, Excellent pie
Cons: Out of town
