Outstanding service and delicious food

We arrived super early for our reservation since we had finished sightseeing for the day and we were hungry! There was no problem seating us when we arrived because there were some no-shows.

Wait staff was INCREDIBLE and checked up on us often. All of our questions were answered, showing they were knowledgable about the menu, and the food was tasty!

We started with the Chorizo and Cod Fish Croquettes, which we would order again. For our mains, we had the Peanut Butter Curry and Ben Ben Noodles. Both were super flavorful, but I'd be interested in trying other things on their menu, as well. For dessert, we had to have the Vegan Snickers, which is a definite winner. It was an awesome ending to an awesome meal. Will definitely be back if we ever make it back to Amsterdam!

Pros: Friendly, knowledgeable staff, Delicious food, Good variety of menu items

So damn good!

We had the fried chicken sandwich & the ramen. The sandwich was delicious & the ramen broth was the best we’ve ever had!

Excellent food and plate sizes

Cozy interior. You probably want to book ahead of time for dinner

The kimchi sandwich is a tiny bit messy

Best ribs ever!

Just had the best "ribs" ever here! I even forgot to take a picture of our main, we just couldn't wait to dig in. Bold, asian inspired flavours. Delicious sandwiches and kimchi loaded fries!

Pros: Bold flavours , Best ribs ever!

Nice vibe and food

This place has a nice vibe and friendly staff. Most foods are tasty, but some are only so-so.

Our favourites were peanut butter curry, cheezy burger, kimchi burger, cheesy steak sandwich, Reuben sandwich, ribs and mushroom bitterballen.
The ben ben noodles was creamy, but too salty. The yukas bravas were quite good, although a bit plain if it weren’t for the toppings. The cod fish croquettes were good, but the mustard sauce was too dominant. I would’ve preferred a milder sauce. I thought the dragon noodles were quite tasty, but the ginger flavour was too strong and it lacked a protein source (it was mainly noodles with a small amount of veggies).

The desserts are very good: the cheezy cake is creamy and fresh, the apple pie ‘warm’ and creamy and the snickers rich and sweet (although rather heavy).

The only thing we wouldn’t recommend is the pulled pork burger, because the jackfruit was too soft and the flavour a bit bland.

Fantastisch

Heerlijk gegeten, de spareribs en de bitterballen zijn super, de kimchirijst en de snickers ook.

It was delicious. We had the spareribs, the bitterballen, the kimchi rice and the snickers bar. They were all very good.

Seems like they have a varied menu, only had balls and tacos but both were excellent, will go again if I’m in the city.

What a gem!

Had a dinner here a couple of weeks ago and loved it. We got all the goodiness that we wanted: I started off with the ribs (yum!), then had the bulgogi beef cheesesteak (more yum!), and then my wife and I shared the cheesecake (most yum!). The cheese cake is to die for, by far one of the best vegan desserts I’ve ever had!

Very good - a little bit expensive

It's a cozy place with a wide range of meals. I tried the ben ben noodles and my girlfriend wanted it too but without any spicy which was not possible so she took the dragon noodle. :(
We both enjoyed a lot our meals.

I find it a little bit expensive compared to other food from the city.

Restaurant voor herhaling vatbaar, de burger niet

Was op zich lekker, maar de burger had teveel saus die overheerste. Het had de optionele frietjes echt nodig om de maaltijd uit te balanceren. Personeel was heel vriendelijk. Sfeer is gezellig. Keuze voor tafeltjes is niet heel slim geweest. Door de coating blijft het tafeltje plakken ook als hij net is schoongemaakt.

Pros: Sfeer, Personeel, Verschillende opties

Pretty nice

The cheese steak was interesting, love me some good seitan. A bit much but I shouldn't have ordered the fries with it. Overall a great experience

Sounds like you had a good time! Seitan can definitely be filling. Next time, maybe skip the fries and save room for dessert! 😄

Could be better

Place was ok, staff was ok, food ok. But probably would not go back again. Wish food was better.

Incredible

I don't think there is much to say about SOIL that hasn't already been said. Everything we ate was out of this world. The bitterballen and ribs were our absolute favourites. But honestly everything was spectacular.

An absolute must visit if you are in Amsterdam.

Love to hear SOIL getting that kind of love! Glad you enjoyed the bitterballen and ribs—those are definitely fan favorites. Come back anytime, there's always more to try! 😎

Great cafe

I had the cod fish croquettes and the dragon noodles. Both were nice but a bit underwhelming in taste.
Still enjoyed the environment and the staff were overly friendly. Would give it a second shot.

Fresh and fabulous

This was such a lovely find. I didn't love my laska because I forgot I don't like seaweed!! Service was quite slow when we went. But I did really like the vibe and would go again!

Oops, forgetting about the seaweed can be a bummer! But glad the vibe made up for it. Hopefully, next time the service will be quicker, and you'll find a dish that's more your style! 😊

Outstanding flavours

This was the definition of tasty food. The flavours hit us in the face. We loved everything we ordered and the service was quick despite there only being 2 members of staff.

We ordered the mushroom bitterballen, pulled pork tacos, laksa ramen and Ben Ben noodles.
