If you prefer your seafood warm, like us, the mixed grill is a solid choice. The Seafood Bar focuses on fresh, sustainably sourced seafood, served simply and beautifully. This is the branch we tried, and it\u2019s located right on Damrak \u2014 the main street that runs from Centraal Station to Dam Square. De Pijp is one of my favorite neighborhoods in Amsterdam \u2014 it\u2019s packed with caf\u00e9s and pretty boutiques, making it perfect for caf\u00e9 hopping and shopping. If you\u2019ve only got a few days in the city, it\u2019s worth choosing the location that fits best with the rest of your itinerary. What I love about The Seafood Bar is that they focus on sustainably sourced, high-quality seafood served in a bright, modern setting that doesn\u2019t feel stiff or pretentious.<\/p>\n
