Good Food - Edit
No reservation needed. Menu is in Dutch but the waitress translated for us. Everything is vegan. Small but pleasant restaurant. Service was not very friendly. Would not return we liked the Loving Hut nearby in Amsterdam more. The service at Loving Hut was very good. We went there twice.

Uneventful food with good service - Edit
Lunch is either sandwhiches or a burger (the same darn burger listed 4 different times on the menu). Dinner is that burger and a few limited items, We had the cheeseburger. It was like deep fried chili on a bun. I didn't enjoy it. Fries had a funny aftertaste. The vegan mayo was good and so was my edelberry gin and tonic. Service was excellent but seating uncomfortable. A little expensive for basic vegan lunch items. Burger with fries 15.50 EUR.
Read morePros: Service, Decent amount of seating
Cons: Uncreative, Pricey (for what it is)

Meat your Maker - Edit
In this place you will experience amazing burgers, great botanical gins and house wines that lead to positive conversation. As you would expect, the Meatless District is a complete flesh free zone. The burgers are Time Out Magazine astonishing. I used to buy second hand Time Out guides years ago on eBay to check out the token vegetarian listings in various European cities before travelling. Probably out of date on the day of publication. MD as I will now call it is very special indeed. You don't feel hassled or rushed here. The staff look after you well then take a back seat to allow you to enjoy your food. Accompanying the burgers were a large portion of great fries, a pot of home made vegan mayo and a big dollop of tomato ketchup. Ah shuddupa your face. I've seen Amsterdam develop from the Maoz dominant days of the early 2000's into what is now becoming a truly excellent city for veganistas to do their thing. MD is an essential part of this process. Krowarzywa in Warsaw and Krakow are the only other places I know where the burgers are also on a higher level of vegan existence as they are in MD.

Deliciously vegan - Edit
The service, the atmosphere and yes....the food - all perfect to me today esp. considering that in Amsterdam restaurants most of the time don't even get 1 out of 3 right!
Read moreI was also quite happy with the menu card, but can understand if some expect more choice when going out for dinner. Well, check out the menu card online first and for breakfast/lunch/coffee it is also a great place.
And I just loved the 'cheesecake' because of the great "dough" and the creamy layer on top of it. Texture and flavor as they should be and better.
So if you are close by (and the neighborhood is worth a visit even it might not be so obvious at first sight for tourists), check it out. The whole theme is similar to the currently popular industrial/retro/cozy formula, but beautifully executed and the only place in town that style (to my knowledge) that is actually vegan or in my personal opinion: deliciously vegan.

Vegan fast food in restaurant setting - Edit
Nice restaurant, limited options, most is fast food style meals. I had the veggie / tofu burger which tasted pretty good, not fantastic. Cheesecake tasted good, but looked simply. Just a slice on a plate, nothing more.

Super service and amazing food - Edit
I went to the restaurant a month ago with my vegan-curious mom. She ordered a pasta and I took the vegan quesadillas. Her pasta was "one of the best she ever ate" in her own words, and my quesadillas were awesome as well. The service speed was top notch and the price-quality ratio great. I also had the deep fried banana with rice ice cream for dessert and it was delicious as well. Highly recommend!

Disappointing - Edit
Okay restaurant but a bit pretentious. Especially cause the options for the main course exist of: pasta, taco's, a bunch of steamed veggies in a pile and burgers. For me the first recepies I learned in my first week of being a vegan. Nothing more than the vegan dish they serve at the average meat serving restaurant. The pile of steemed vegetables, burger and taco's my friends and I had were pretty boring in taste, while prices very from 15,- too 16,50.
Read morePros: Only vegan dishes, and nice staff
Cons: Expansive, no interesting options, plain tasting f

So Good that I Ate Here Twice - Edit
I made a reservation approximately two weeks prior to my first visit, and the food was so good that I made another reservation for the following night. The asparagus soup was so delicious! This restaurant and bar seems to be very successful so far, and although there was no line, almost every seat was occupied on both visits.

Fancy American vegan eating - Edit
My first piece of advise would be to book, on most evenings now there's usually only one or two tables that are good for walk ins and I'm guessing it's only going to get more popular in the future.
Read moreMeatless District is a quite upscale place, but still friendly and cosy like all good Amsterdam restaurants! The staff are really friendly, the coffee is good and the decor is relaxing. The menus is a little bit small perhaps and has good American staples, like nachos, quesadillas, burgers and so on. The burgers are good, and the cheese toasty is *amazing* but the natcho cheese is a bit uninspiring and you don't get much for €8.50. Having said that, the portion sizes are pretty big, we had a starter each then had to split a burger between us because we where so full and everything tastes great. This place really fills a gap in the Amsterdam market for a nice, intimate but upscale place with great food.
Pros: lovely atmosphere , tasty food, friendly staff
Cons: expensive

nice place, could improve menu - Edit
First of all, make a reservation when you want to eat here! Think that's a really good sign for a vegan place. When we were there, the place was full. It is more upscale and trendy than most other vegetarian restaurants in Amsterdam, so it really fills an empty space - much needed here. The staff was very kind.
Read moreThey could improve on the food however. We ordered nachos as a starter (€8,50!!) and the guacamole didn't seem freshly made. The burgers were tastefull but way too salty.
I think it's great that their menu is all vegan now.
Pros: atmosphere, kind staff, vegan
Cons: food could be improved

Meatless District - Edit
Had the one of a kind house burger. It was really good. Be prepared for a lot of dough from the bread. If you eat small portions this is ideal for two people who have small stomachs.

Upscale vegan restaurant - Edit
I went to Meatless District for dinner. I arrived just before 5pm, at which time the kitchen was closed in between lunch and dinner, opening back up at 6pm. I made a reservation for 6pm and came back again at about 5:45pm, at which time I was able to get a drink and look at the dinner menu.
Read moreI ordered the MD burger, which was a tofu/tomato burger with avocado, gherkins, salad and mayonaise, and chips/fries. It was delicious and well-presented, although the burger is quite big and needs a knife and fork! For dessert I ordered the Monkey Business banana ice cream, which came with edible flowers, pecan nuts, chopped pistashio nuts, roasted chickpeas and avocado mousse. This was also delicious, a small portion but nice for after a large meal.
MD is an upscale restaurant which seems to require reservations for dinner. I was able to make a reservation an hour beforehand, but I don't know if this was because it was a weeknight. The service was very friendly and prompt. There are a few outdoor tables, so I was able to sit outside and enjoy the summer evening sun (with free wifi!). My meal, a main, a dessert and two drinks cost about €28. It is a little bit pricey, but for an upscale restaurant in Amsterdam I don't think it was excessive.
The only con was that on the evening I was there their card machine did not work with international cards, so I had to go to the ATM to get cash to pay the bill. The waiter was very apologetic, so hopefully it is an issue that will be resolved soon.
Pros: Upscale menu, great food, great service, , Great table, free wifi, Located close to tram line
Cons: Had issue accepting international credit/debit car

Very nice place - Edit
Beautiful interior, friendly staff. The food is good, especially the caesar salad with vegan chicken. One of the main courses turned out to be cold, but it was meant to be. Was a suprise because it didn't say so on the menu. Been there 2 times and had multiple dishes, some better than others. For dessert, outside of the menu, you can choose from cakes from another vegan restaurant called Dophert, which are really good.
Read morePros: Some creative dishes, Nice flavours
Cons: Expensive, A clearer menu would be nice (a cold main course!)

Great menu and delicious food - Edit
This is a perfect restaurant for lunch or dinner. You should make reservations for dinner because they are often full but you can just walk in for lunch. They have the best vegan Cesar salad we have tasted and we also had the yellow beet salad which was unique and yummy. The wait staff is friendly and they serve great beer on tap and coffee too. Also free wifi.

MeatLess District - Packing A Punch - Edit
Look for the sign "MD" on the front.
Read moreOnly one week old and they already have a healthy clientele, because they got it right from the start. Reasonably priced menu, good selection, open kitchen, friendly staff, very fast WiFi, comfortable seating arrangement & atmosphere and a great location,
I didn't try it, but the MD Burger looked amazing, with mayo and also with fries (extra). The Toasted Cheese sandwich (vegan) was very tasty. They are open for breakfast from 09:00 - 22:00.
Pros: Atmosphere, Food, Location
