Such an under rated place. Very friendly staffs, grew view from the top, finger foods are very tasty, just a lovely place to hang out.
Canvas, perched atop a hotel in Amsterdam, offers an unparalleled dining experience with its breathtaking rooftop views. This gem allows patrons to soak in the panoramic beauty of Amsterdam from an elevated perspective, making every visit memorable. The cuisine is delightful, with a variety of dishes that cater to diverse tastes, complemented by an impressive selection of drinks to enhance your meal. Whether you're looking for a unique spot for brunch or a tranquil place to work during the day, Canvas provides the perfect backdrop. Its combination of scenic vistas, delectable food, and a warm atmosphere makes it an ideal choice for both casual and special occasions.
Pleasant place to go. On Fridays and Saturdays they are a restaurante and at around 23h they remove the tables and turn it into a club with DJ. Price is lower than I thought for a hotel rooftop. I liked the most as this is definitely better than an everyday place and yet not formal. I recomendo making the reservation for the side areas (with a nice view) if you are going for drinks only.
A restaurant where you can feel a touch of Dutch cuisine yet not too home-meal.
bitterballen was so so fish of the day was very good. Steak is good but you know, just normal steak. Balcony was open for smoking and to see the view but from your table there’s not much of a view you can see.
There were some glitches in service, for example I went washroom while waiting my friend, and they let other customers to seat on my table. It was pretty awkward. Also I ordered a wine with screw top. They didn’t bother to open or offer the tasting. Vibe was casual and easy going, which fit me very well. Fellow customers were not too young and overall gentle and nice.

The restaurant has improved quite much since the past 6 months. The food is quite varied and savory, the service is attentive, and the cocktails are quite creative and are some of the best ones I’ve had in Amsterdam. Additionally, the place has a great view of the south and east part of the city, which makes for a beautiful atmosphere.
As for recommendations here is what I would encourage you to try:
1. The Japanese Gin Fizz is out of this world and my all time favorite.
2. The bitterballen are delicious and are made with good quality ingredients.
3. The roast beef bread was so fresh and the flavor combination adds so much to the dish, however I do have to say that I prefer the bread to be warm.
5. The roasted pumpkin salad is quite refreshing, nevertheless I do think that it tastes better if some salt is added and it would perhaps be more savory with some balsamic or honey as dressing.
6. The white chocolate cheesecake is the only way to properly finish off the meal as it is creamy and savory.
As a final note, I do have to mention that the service attention decreases as lunch hours are ending so I would recommend you to consider going before 15:30 for attentive and quick service. Nevertheless, there is always personnel around that can help you with anything you need.

Great place with a great view.
The service was good, just took more time than I would expect, and the food is the best part. It was awesome.
It's not the fancy place with small portions of strange food. It's great, and have some local dishes also.
The drinks were a bit expensive but I guess they are in the entire city.

Really lovely restaurant and location. Food was delicious (we had steak for 2) and drinks were reasonably priced. Service was slow-ish BUT it was super busy so would still recommend coming here for sure!
The view was also amazing, just a really chill spot to relax and what the sun go down over the city

Funky and fun atmosphere and broad choices of menu items. Our server was so kind and energetic. Beautiful views of the city. The outdoor seating area is for people smoking and the door was open, so we did have exposure to second hand smoke. One odd thing - we ordered olives & nuts. They brought us a giant cup full of basic green olives and told us they were out of nuts. We would have preferred if they'd told us that so we could order something else.
