Mata Hari, named after the exotic dancer and double spy from the Netherlands who became a symbol of the flamboyant in Europe at the beginning of the last century, is located on one of the oldest canals in Amsterdam, right in the middle of the Red Light District. The restaurant interior features art nouveau and art deco influences, with cozy nooks, comfortable seating, and vintage finds to create a welcoming atmosphere.
