In December, Ceintuur Theater in De Pijp opened as an all-day rotisserie restaurant. Under the leadership of chef Atti de Moll, the rotisserie takes center stage in the kitchen. After years of cooking at the highest level in Amsterdam’s Michelin-starred restaurants, including Restaurant Lars, Atti de Moll has consciously chosen a more accessible and convivial style here. Drawing on his fine-dining technical foundation, he gives the simplicity of the rotisserie a refined yet relaxed signature.

Basque free-range chicken on the spit at Ceintuur Theater
The culinary concept is inspired by Mediterranean cuisines, with fire and craftsmanship at its core. The absolute highlight of the menu is the Basque free-range chicken from Lindenhoff, slowly roasted on the spit. This dish symbolizes everything Ceintuur Theater stands for: pure ingredients, provenance, and an approachable yet high-quality dining experience. Owner Ricardo da Cruz Paulino aims to make the restaurant Amsterdam’s go-to rotisserie destination—a place guests deliberately visit for top-quality spit-roasted dishes.
The location plays an important role in this. Ceintuur Theater is housed in the characteristic building that for many years was home to Coffee & Coconuts, opposite De Pijp metro station. Originally a neighborhood cinema built in 1921–1922, the building still reflects the influences of the Amsterdam School and early Art Deco. This historic setting now serves as the backdrop for a modern hospitality concept that fits seamlessly into the vibrant neighborhood.
Recurring events | Samba Sunday’s and Rotisserie Takeover
Ceintuur Theater also strengthens its social dynamic with recurring events such as Samba Sunday’s and the Rotisserie Takeover. During these evenings, guest chefs are invited to add their own culinary signature to the rotisserie, drawing inspiration from a variety of global cuisines.

The restaurant is open seven days a week and follows the rhythm of the day: from breakfast and coffee to lunch, drinks, and dinner. The ground floor houses the restaurant and a central bar, while the upper floors provide space for private dining, gatherings, co-working, and meetings.
With this combination of gastronomy, accessibility, and urban energy, Ceintuur Theater aims to position itself as a new hotspot in Amsterdam, where food, connection, and experience come together.
