About
Tucked along Van Heuven Goedhartlaan in Amstelveen, Amber Garden has quietly become one of the most decorated Chinese restaurants in the Netherlands. Gault&Millau named it Asian Restaurant of the Year 2025 and awarded it 14/20, Michelin has selected it, and it features in the 2026 Lekker Top 500 — a rare sweep of accolades that speaks for itself.
Chef Shaun Song leads the kitchen with a wide-ranging à la carte menu that balances time-honoured Chinese technique with considered creativity. His traditional roasted Peking duck has become a signature draw, yet the broader menu demands equal attention — from dishes built on fermented and pickled flavours to delicate desserts of flaky pastry filled with lightly sweetened custard that round off a meal with quiet elegance.
A Google rating of 4.5 from 639 reviews confirms that Amber Garden resonates well beyond the world of critics. The restaurant offers outdoor seating and vegetarian options, making it a welcoming choice for a range of diners in the heart of Amstelveen.
Book your table now and taste why Amber Garden is the Netherlands' finest Asian dining experience.
