Any suggestions for good local Dutch mid-priced restaurants for dinner or lunch in Amsterdam?

Cafe Bern was outstanding. Excellent fondue. Reservations recommended. Few tourists.

Amongst Amsterdam's slew of ethnic restaurants are many 'Petit Restaurants' or small family-run or similar places - they may not always serve Dutch cuisine as the overwhelming number of restaurants patronized by locals seems to be ethnic ones - especially French and Asian - Dutch cuisine is best seen perhaps at FEBO's!

I have found Dutch department stores have very nice cafeterias, oft on their upper floors - sometimes with a great view - this is real downhome Dutch food - not a supermarket cafe but as inexpensive and quick as you'll find in Amsterdam. and you see all the fare before you. The main train station also has such a, for a cafeteria, nice cheap fast place - used to be on track one but not sure since rehab of station - haven't checked when I've been there.

tripAdvisor gives De Bijenkorf - a large Dutch department store chain with a flagship one in the heart of Amsterdam a fairly good rating!

Der Blonde Hollander; Le Zinc (a bit above mid priced) or Pannenkoekenhuis Upstairs.

we did not have a great experience at the Green Lantern. Service was slow and since is all fondue, just cooking the meat and vegetables seemed to take forever (and we were starving!!)
