I thought I would enjoy it more. I had read a lot about the place before coming, but the experience didn't really take me anywhere. The waiters didn't seem to fully understand what was being served. It felt like there was a lot of thought and intention behind each dish, but I never really undrstood the story. The flavors were deep and heavy throughout the meal. I kept expecting a fresh, lighter moment to break things up, but it never came. Ironically, my favorite dish was the second one a cup that evoked childhood memories. Unfortunately, no one could explain whether I was supposed to drink it or eat it with a spoon, so I drank it. Everything that followed was less memorable for me. By the time the final course arrived, I was already ready for the meal to end. Too long. Too heavy. That's all.
Very nice restaurant. I tested the menu in 6 steps and I can tell you that it is a real culinary discovery.. the presentation and taste are quite delicate and sophisticated. We feel that the chef puts his heart into cooking as well as the waitresses to present it to you. 4 stars 🌠🌠🌠🌠
We had a brilliant evening here for three people. We had pre-booked and paid a deposit and pre-warned we had a vegetarian in the group. On the evening we opted for the eight course tasting menu and were delighted to receive amuse bouche and delicious bread before, and petit fours with coffee after, the meal. The waiting staff were incredibly knowledgeable with the wine list and plated food. The restaurant was well laid out and we were lucky enough to be able to see the kitchen with plating.
Quaint little restaurant, very homely vibe. The service was fantastic and the food was unique for me. Tried many things I have never had before. Would defiantly visit again!
I'm coming to The Restaurant for 10 years, I been never disappointed, its rater the opposite. Rogier & Elise are very welcoming and warm Owners. Once you step in it feels like you are part of a journey. Its starts with the welcome, Wine menu and Wine recommendation, Then choices of dishes and the flavors'. It always amazes me how much passion, Rogier and Elise put into their Hospitality. Thank you for an very nice evening
