About
Nestled at the edge of Amsterdam's Rembrandtpark, Bolenius occupies a striking setting behind the Rembrandt Park One office building, with its own entrance and a generous terrace overlooking the adjacent pond and parkland. The surroundings feel like a natural extension of the kitchen's guiding philosophy under chef Luc Kusters.
The accolades speak for themselves: a Michelin Star, a coveted Michelin Green Star for sustainable gastronomy, a 16/20 from Gault&Millau, and the maximum five radishes awarded by We're Smart — the world's leading recognition for vegetable-forward fine dining. Kusters' modern cuisine champions Dutch produce and plant-based creativity, with menus priced between €59 and €125. The restaurant also has notable individual achievements: Jonge Chef van het Jaar in 2012 and Gastheer van het Jaar in 2016 were both tied to Bolenius.
Guests consistently agree: Bolenius holds a 4.5 Google rating from 443 reviews. Outdoor seating is available, and the restaurant welcomes diners Wednesday through Saturday for both lunch and dinner. Reservations are strongly recommended.
