Combo Bistro Amsterdam opens on the Overtoom
The Oud-West restaurant combines Mediterranean-European dishes, European wine and space for small private events.
Combo Bistro Amsterdam opened in October 2026 at Overtoom 495-497 in Oud-West. The venue describes itself as a Mediterranean-European neighbourhood bistro, bar and event space.
According to its website, Combo cooks with the seasons and works with European wine regions and smaller producers selected by the team. The menu centres on small plates and shared dishes across vegetables, meat and fish, built around the idea that eating out does not need a special occasion.
I amsterdam included Combo in its November list of new hospitality venues. Essentially Amsterdam also named it as a new Overtoom address on 13 November. Those two editorial listings confirm the opening alongside the restaurant's own information.
Combo Bistro Amsterdam favours sharing
The house formula is the Combo dinner: for €45 per person the table gets homemade bread and all the small salads and dips to share, plus a choice of main course and dessert. Vegetarian and vegan dishes are on the menu, including garden vegetables stuffed with rice, lentils and herbs, and the restaurant says it can cater for most allergies if told when booking. AMUSE. has not visited and does not award ratings.
Combo is currently open from Wednesday to Saturday between 5pm and 11pm, with last kitchen orders at 10pm. The restaurant says more opening days will follow, so guests should check the current schedule before travelling. Walk-ins are accepted, including at the bar.
The Overtoom gains a local bistro
The address sits in Amsterdam Oud-West and is designed for dinner, a drink at the bar and private gatherings. Business and private events are possible for up to 80 guests, with borrel, finger food and buffet menus from €20 per person. The official website describes tall green windows, white tiles, warm timber and plants, although that remains the operator's account of the room.
The opening is part of a wider run of new Amsterdam venues this autumn. In the available sources, Combo's clearest distinction is the combination of a neighbourhood role, shared plates and European wine. More openings appear in our restaurant section.
Prices are those listed on the restaurant's website on 13 November and may change after the launch period. The opening status and address were checked against three sources the same day.
