Rijks restaurant Amsterdam

Hello -
We have a reservation for this restaurant, which is inside the Rijksmuseum. My question - do we need to buy a ticket for the museum to enter the restaurant? The museum ticket is time sensitive, so do we buy it for the same time as the lunch reservation? Can't find the answer on either website.
Thanks for your help

The Rijks restaurant is not inside the Rijksmuseum, it’s located right next to the museum but it has its own separate entrance. If you approach the Rijksmuseum from the Museumplein, the restaurant is on your left hand side before you reach the actual museum.
I don’t know if you realized this, so please excuse me if you did, but Rijks is a Michelin-starred restaurant. It’s a restaurant to enjoy a nice multi course lunch or dinner. It’s not a place to grab a quick bite to eat while you’re visiting the museum. Rijks is a fine dining restaurant that just happens to be located right next to a museum.

Thanks so much for your quick and concise reply. I thought as much, but couldn't confirm. We do know about the Michelin star, and are looking forward to a wonderful meal. We'll visit the museum after our lunch.
