Just there last week --
You may not want pizza if you are only there for a few days, but this is a neighborhood place, very friendly and very good Restaurant Faam. https://www.restaurantfaam.nl
And an interesting place that uses surplus food from grocers, misshapen vegetables... Instock. https://www.instock.nl/en/menu/ I was there for breakfast and the croque monsieur was delicious.
Nearby the Tropen Museum that has a fascinating Japanese culture exhibit on now.
And if you want to have a Dutch meal with the Dutch -- check out Martine's table -- www.martines-table.com. I joined 5 other travelers for a delicious Dutch meal with Martine and Olav at their home about a 7 minute walk from Centraal Station. Dinner and conversation went on for hours.
