Ciel Bleu

Ciel Bleu lives up to its name. Here, you dine on the top floor of the luxurious Okura Hotel with a spectacular view of the blue sky and the Amsterdam skyline as a backdrop. The modern elegance of the restaurant and the superlative presentation of the dishes are equally pleasing to the eye. Arjan Speelman's cuisine is technically accomplished and creative. The seasoned chef deftly plays with French cooking techniques, Asian seasonings and spices. By focusing on the depth of his sauces, he ensures that each dish packs a punch. His marinated bluefin tuna tartare with yuzu, paired with a horseradish cream, egg yolk and briny caviar has duly earned its place as a signature dish. Every detail is precise, every bite a surprise. Dining at Ciel Bleu is intriguing. You will be served by one of the best front-of-house teams in the country, starring maître d' Francesco Simonelli. The extensive wine list and the alcohol-free options are another highlight. The sky really is the limit here!
