Rijsel
About
Rijsel
Rijsel is one of Amsterdam's most beloved restaurants and has been a local favorite since opening in 2012. Named after the Dutch word for the French city of Lille, the restaurant combines French gastronomy with the comforting flavors of Flanders. Housed inside a former domestic science school, the lively dining room overlooks an open kitchen where chef Iwan Driessen and his team prepare seasonal dishes with exceptional care. The famous roast chicken, Breton fish soup and extensive wine list have earned Rijsel a Bib Gourmand distinction from Michelin. Despite its understated atmosphere, the restaurant consistently ranks among Amsterdam's most sought-after dining destinations and is known for delivering outstanding food without unnecessary fuss.
