Review of Dèsa

When I was diagnosed with Celiac, I thought enjoying rijsttafel in Amsterdam was history. How wrong I was!! Amazing GF rijsttafel (Indonesian "rice table") with both meat and vegetarian offerings await you within a 15 minute walk of Museumplein! The staff is wonderful and very aware of GF and celiac issues. All dishes are gluten free (including soy sauce dishes). The only non-GF item I saw was the puffed crackers put on the table, and they have a GF version which they gave us instead. Not sure about the review that said to bring cash - we paid with a card today (same day) and it was no problem! Food was absolutely amazing. We had the Desa rijsttafel for 2 people, which has meat dishes - it included 3 chicken dishes, 2 meat dishes, 2 warm veggie dishes, one cold veggie dish, spicy potatoes, and two bowls of rice - one plain and one fried. We also had a mango juice and a liter of water, and the bill was under 50 Euros. We will absolutely return to this welcoming and delicious restaurant!!!
