REM, Rooftop restaurant in Houthavens, Netherlands
REM is a restaurant in a former broadcasting tower spanning three levels with a bar, dining room, and rooftop terrace overlooking Amsterdam's waterfront. The spaces offer different settings and views across the entire structure.
The structure began as a broadcasting station in the North Sea and was later transformed into a dining venue. The building was relocated to its current position above the IJ river and adapted for its new purpose.
The restaurant presents contemporary European cooking through seasonal menus that change with local ingredients and careful preparation methods. Diners experience different culinary ideas and flavors across multiple courses throughout their meal.
The restaurant welcomes guests Wednesday to Saturday from 4 pm to midnight and reservations are recommended for dinner service. Visitors should check current offerings and plan visits with seasonal conditions in mind.
The building once served as a broadcasting structure and sits above the IJ river surrounded by water. This unusual elevation and origin make it a rare location where industrial history and modern dining come together.
