Hotspot alert: Mesa Mesa in Amsterdam

Yes, Mesa Mesa has opened its doors in Amsterdam at the Marie Heinekenplein. This Spanish tapas restaurant is a very tasty and especially cozy addition to the Amsterdam food scene, with dishes you want to share and wines that are just as tempting as the food.

The menu

The menu

On the map you will find Spanish classics with a twist, just a little different from normal, from crispy Spanish croquettes and a fresh Spanish potato salad with tuna tartare, to the iconic Patatas bravas, but just a little bit different than you're used to, but if you don't like pork, you're in the wrong place.

Behind Mesa Mesa is a well-known name: the owner is also responsible for other well-known restaurants in Amsterdam, such as Heemelrijck (classic Dutch dishes) and La Nostra Gigi (Italian)

The program products Mesa Mesa is sleek and stylish, with an eye for detail. Think comfortable chairs (which we'd love to have in our homes), refined decor, and a large open kitchen where you can secretly watch Chef Victor whip up these dishes. In other words, Mesa Mesa is not only a treat for your taste buds, but also for your eyes.

Whether you're visiting Mesa Mesa for drinks, lunch, or dinner, we at Bartsboekje think it will become a new favorite on Marie Heinekenplein.
