TRAVEL - Review Restaurant Souvla Amsterdam

Skewers, skewers and only skewers. That's why this restaurant calls Souvla because in the Greek language this word means skewer. On the website they say "What do you think when you hear the word Souvla ? Grilled pata negra, tenderloin or octopus ? Probably not." Of course not, I think of Souvlaki ... but that's not true. If you look at the menu, you'll stumble across totally different things ... SKEWERS

1st impression

When you enter the restaurant you do not even notice that it is a mediteranese restaurant. No, it is cozy and warm . Wooden tables, dark gray walls and pretty pastel colors as decoration. Souvla has a Greek owner, and you realize this when you read the menu.

Starters

Gamba Oresti's

Polpo a la Griglia (I think it means grilled octopus)

Carpaccio of Beef

The main menu

Consists of different types of meat and fish but on skewers ofcourse. Souvla Tenderloin piri, souvla Tenderloin Provence and Poussin of the spit. Each dish represents a particular country.

Side dishes

Additionally, you could choose from a number of side dishes like corn on the cob, fries, baked potatoes and grilled vegetables. Bit small portions for a large group so the side dishes were quickly empty. Here they have to think about to give larger portions for a big group.

Desserts

The desserts looked good and tasted also very tasty. Affogato al Cafe , Cheesecake, Chocolate ice cream with amaretto , Scroppino etc. Actually, I thought it was a shame because I was expecting desserts that were directed to a particular country ! But nonetheless, the desserts were incredibly tasty and very nicely presented.

Final conclusion

The guys who has helped us did their best and were very cute . Friendly, welcoming and liked jokes. Restaurant Souvla on the Hugo de Grootplein 10 hs Amsterdam deserves 8 points to me. They do well in that neighborhood. Previously I lived in that neighborhood and saw that the square has become neater and cozier and with some nice restaurants there is only become more vivid. Do come in the summer to this square and you find and see the activity. I recommend restaurant Souvla to do a snack and a drink but above all for fun. Make use of a composite menu because I thought you could eat off of it. Check or google and you will automatically find an offer.
