About

Tucked away on the Westerstraat in Amsterdam's Centrum district, Roux has become one of the city's most talked-about restaurants since opening in 2024. Chef Sebastiano Guglielmucci leads a kitchen rooted in modern cuisine, delivered with the kind of confidence that makes a new restaurant feel like it has always belonged.

The accolades back up the buzz: a near-perfect Google rating of 4.9 across 586 reviews, a Gault&Millau score of 13.5/20 — with reviewers hinting the ceiling is higher still — and a place in the Michelin selection. Few restaurants earn all three this quickly.

Counter dining is very much part of the Roux experience, reflecting a broader Amsterdam love for eating at the bar — intimate, informal, and anything but ordinary. The front-of-house team is praised for its attentiveness and warmth, making guests feel welcome from the first moment. Vegetarian options are available, and reservations are strongly recommended.

One of Amsterdam's most exciting openings in years — secure your table before the word spreads further.

Cityguys

"Counter Culture is helemaal hip in Amsterdam, als in: eten aan de bar. In chique Omakase-stijl, of gewoon op een barkruk in een of andere garagebox in Amsterdam Noord. Amsterdammers hebben het hoog zitten. Zo ook bij Roux." — De Jordaan: de beste cafés en restaurants
