About
Tucked along the Wibautstraat in Amsterdam-Oost, Alba has carved out a reputation as one of the city's most exciting neighbourhood restaurants. Chef George Kataras drives a creative kitchen built around imaginative small plates, a concept that has earned the restaurant both a Michelin Bib Gourmand and a 13.5/20 from Gault&Millau — proof that serious cooking and genuine hospitality make fine company.
Flexibility sits at the heart of the experience: diners can order à la carte, build their own menu, or hand the reins entirely to the chef. A thoughtfully curated selection of natural wines rounds out every meal. With a generous terrace, outdoor seating, and a 4.6 Google rating across more than 400 reviews, Alba delivers consistently whether the weather calls for dining inside or out.
The restaurant opens Tuesday through Saturday from 6 PM, with Friday and Saturday nights running until midnight. Vegetarian options are available, reservations are recommended, and the welcoming atmosphere makes it easy to linger.
