Fodor's Expert Review Restaurant Elkaar

This small restaurant in a white-and-red corner building near the Tropenmuseum is easy to spot, and inside, the dark-wood paneling, pressed linen tablecloths, and knowledgeable waitstaff come together to make every visit feel like a special occasion. The food is decent, too. Choose from reasonably priced three- and four-course set menus featuring—dishes like roasted quail with a Jerusalem-artichoke cream sauce, sweet-potato gnocchi with bok choy, or deep-fried ice cream with chocolate and Baileys liqueur. In summer, dining alfresco is a pleasure.
