ARCA Amsterdam

Portuguese Flavours with a Modern Twist

Concept by 2 Michelin Star Chef Henrique Sá Pessoa

ARCA

Award-winning Portuguese chef Henrique Sá Pessoa (2 Michelin stars, BBC’s Saturday Kitchen) brings his bold, modern Portuguese cuisine to ARCA, his first European restaurant outside Lisbon. Located at art’otel Amsterdam, ARCA blends Portuguese flavours with Asian influences in a vibrant, laid-back setting.

The Restaurant

Designed for connection, ARCA’s menu features petiscos and larger plates made for sharing or solo indulgence. Highlights include Vieira Pil-Pil, Atum Tataki, and new seasonal dishes crafted with the freshest ingredients. Pair your meal with a signature cocktail or curated wine selection by our sommelier for the full experience.

The Bar

Just steps away, ARCA Bar is your go-to for after-work drinks, easy date nights, or weekend gatherings. Launched early this year, the Signature Cocktail Menu – “Course of Life”, inspired by Atelier Van Lieshout’s art, offers a flavour journey through memories and emotions.

Party season is here

Celebrate the festive season with us, with a special tasting menu throughout the whole month of December and Christmas Eve. Also, dance into the early hours of 2026 with us with our special All That Glitters NYE, a night which promises even more glam and glitter than last year’s Studio 54 NYE.

Still need your office Christmas party sorted? Impress your colleagues or friends with a dinner at ARCA with bespoke menus and wine pairings.
