In my opinion this is one of the best and most authentic Spanish tapas places in Amsterdam. They have have Boquerones (anchovies), Jambon Iberico Pata Negra, Albondigas, Croquetes, and Escalibad, and they are all delicious! The atmosphere is simple: wooden tables, running waiters, sharing tables. In short a real eclectic, Spanish treat. The service is quick and good. Last time I had to wait 15 minutes for my table, I was told by the waiter, but within 7 minutes my table was ready and I was ready to order. I love it! Details about this spot (Show on map)

Maarten-Jan is spot on with his description of Pata Negra. I’ve lived in Barcelona for a year and a half and I must say that Pata Negra can compete with the best of them. But more important than the food, is the atmosphere and it’s absolutely terrific. An eclectic mix of people, from high school students out on a first date to the older crowd enjoying their glass of ‘vino tinto’. Definitely a great place to enjoy some typical Spanish food! Moreover, the area around the Utrechtsestraat has some other great bars and restaurants…
