Address: Bilderdijkstraat 92, 1053 KX Amsterdam
Wilde Zwijnen in Amsterdam's Indische Buurt is the city's game-forward room, a tight seasonal menu built around what hunters bring in that week.
Signature: Wild boar, Roast pigeon, Game pie
Order: Whatever the game of the season is; venison and pigeon both pass through.
Tip: The 3-course set at the start of the week is the value play. Cash or card both fine.
De Kas grows its own vegetables in a 1926 municipal greenhouse in Frankendael Park and runs a daily-changing menu out the kitchen built inside the glasshouse.
Signature: Garden tasting menu, Roasted root vegetables
Order: There is no choice: the day's tasting menu, whatever has come in from the garden.
Tip: Lunch is the value play. Trams 9 and 14 stop nearby; cycling is the local move.
De Goudfazant runs a 1,200 sqm former warehouse in Amsterdam-Noord; the four-course menu changes daily, the wine list leans natural, the room is unbookable.

Tip: Take the free NDSM or Buiksloterweg ferry from Centraal. Booking opens online, often books a week ahead.

Tip: Walk-in only. Order at the counter, sit upstairs. A second Spang Makandra branch in Nieuw West takes the overflow.
