About

Tucked at the start of the Dapperstraat in Amsterdam-Oost, Café Wu is the kind of restaurant that reframes what Chinese cuisine can be. Co-owners Chi Ling Wu and Danny Lee have built a concept with a singular, personal take on Chinese culinary traditions, brought to life in the kitchen by chef Timo de Beurs. That ambition has earned the restaurant a 13/20 score from Gault&Millau — a strong endorsement of the team's creative direction.

The front-of-house experience is a point of distinction in its own right: the team is praised for its warmth, attentiveness, and deep knowledge of the menu and its concept. The wine list, curated with the expertise of owner-sommelier Chi Ling Wu and sommelier Richard Poll, is broad enough to suit every table.

With a Google rating of 4.2 across 241 reviews, vegetarian options available, and a welcoming atmosphere, Café Wu draws both neighbourhood regulars and destination diners. The restaurant is open Tuesday through Saturday evenings, with late-night hours on Fridays and Saturdays until 1:00 AM.

Book your table and experience one of Amsterdam's most compelling takes on Chinese cuisine.
