Awesome vegan option

There is a vegan option for one or two people, which consists of multiple mini dishes. I’m not familiar with Indonesia food so this was a new and awesome experience!

Pros: Great variety of dishes , Lots of flavor , Friendly service and cool restaurant

Verschrikkelijk goed

Vers, ruime keuze, Vegan opties duidelijk aangegeven. Vegan menu of rijsttafel en echt een goed bord eten voor een nette prijs

Pros: Lekker vers

New-ish vegan menu!

Used to come here all the time before I went vegan. Walked in to see if you could eat there being vegan. And to my surprise they showed me a seperate menu with everything that is either vegan of can be made vegan. Also on the main menu vegan options clearly marked! What a change! The nasi rames was delicious! Will come here again now that there are enough options!

Too plain.

My parents took me to this place because they were staying in a hotel closeby and they had seen that there were vegan options here. I was so excited to eat here because my family is part Indonesian and I grew up eating Indonesian food, so I know how good it can taste. I ordered the tahoe tempeh goreng and nasi koening to go with it. The whole tahoe tempeh goreng dish was bland and plain. The tahoe and tempeh had no other flavor but the sauce it came with also didn’t help. It was just soysauce. The rice was supposed to be cooked in coconut milk, and it didn’t even taste like coconut, which was very disappointing. Would not go again. The service also wasn’t too great.

Good food, well marked vegan options

I really enjoyed this place and thought the vegan options were very clearly marked, including a whole mixed vegan platter, which I got and very much enjoyed. Dont understand all the bad reviews, maybe the menu’s changed recently

Nice Indonesian food

Even though the vegan options are limited I really enjoyed what I got. The prices are unfortunately really high for the small portions you get.

Pros: Tasty

Cons: Expensive

No vegan options

I emailed the restaurant to ask if they could prepare a vegan meal if I made a reservation, so I could go here with people who do eat animal products. They responded that it was not possible.

No vegan options to speak of

If you just want to eat stir fried veggies, sure. Every other dish is not vegan or even vegetarian. Be sure to ask for the special allergies menu (and find nothing to eat). Guessing they do not consider shrimps being animals.

Very disappoint and tasteless food

Went here for lunch with my family. Was able to create my own bowl with only 2 vegetable option who where suitable for vegans. I was supposed to get green beans with a black bean sauce and styrfried tofu with paksoi on white rice.
I got a bowl with dry white rice and bland cooked veggies with so sauce or salt at all and maybe 4 small pieces of tofu.
I was very disappointed and will not recommend this place for vegans at all!

Not suitable for vegans

The restaurant looks nice enough but is really not amazing. There is not much choice for vegans and despite the waitress attempting to help me find a good vegan option, my dish was eventually served with an egg in the middle, which was, of course, quite disappointing. Furthermore, one I was finally able to eat, I can only say the food was not very tasty and somewhat bland. I cannot recommend this place.

Pros: None

Cons: Few vegan options , Bland food

Nice, but limited vegan options

Although there are vegan options available, they are not labeled as such. The waitress gave the allergens list on request and most products that look vegan actually contain milk, fish (sauce) or shellfish so always ask for the list!

Managed to find 3 vegan options (the portion sizes are tapas style). One of the dishes was veganized on request, but by error was served with egg.

The food was tasty and good. The service was fast and friendly. It's a nice place, but be very sure what you order is really vegan.

Pros: Tasty food, Friendly service

Cons: Limited vegan choices

very friendly and helpful staff

A very pretty restaurant near the Amsterdam Museum. The staff is knowledgeable and helpful with picking vegan options. Really large portions. A very satisfying lunch. Good value too.

Lovely, busy restaurant

Kantjil is a pretty popular restaurant for locals and tourists alike. Food seems to be pre-made since the service is incredibly fast, but great tasting notheless. There are enough vegan options and the athmosphere is pleasant. Great place to visit with non-vegan friends.

Pros: Variety of dishes, Friendly staff, Dishes are well-seasoned, great tasting

Cons: Noisy, Seating may take long
