The delicious details

Tucked beneath an 18th-century canal house on the Keizersgracht, De Struisvogel seats 34 in the heart of De Negen Straatjes. The kitchen works in a French register, turning out a three-course set menu that changes regularly.

Veluwe heathland lamb and Blonde d'Aquitaine beef anchor the protein side of the menu, alongside sea bream and mackerel. Vegetarian and vegan options run through every course, and the full menu is prepared in house.

The format is relaxed evening dining at a price point well below the neighbourhood average.
