10/10The dessert was fabulous. Especially enjoyed the lemon sorbet with liquor43. Would definitely visit again for just the desserts. The staff and people were quite friendly.

8/10Really good food, pleasant atmosphere and gentle personnel. It’s like tapas concept but fusion of different cultures. Try the menu with starters, main and dessert!

9.5/10Very good idea to allow in the menu to take half dishes to be able to try different dishes, instead of sharing. Presentation of the dish and taste combination is lekker!

9.5/10The dishes were so good and it was nice to sample everything. Really impressed by this place. I also enjoyed how it was a little away from the main canal and tourist area.

8.5/10Having had a poor experience at one of the “downtown” restaurants, we went local - and glad we did! The food at Blij was fantastic - we had an excellent meal: such lovely ingredients and expertly cooked. A triumph. Would highly recommend going!

10/10One of my favorite restaurants in Utrecht! Good food for sharing for a good price! The location is a bit hidden, but that makes it a hidden gem ;) Would recommend to everyone!

9.5/10Nice, quite small restaurant with very good service. We were there on Saturday evening and it was pleasantly busy, with both of us taking samsam dishes, we were expecting to wait long, but we were nicely surprised with very quick service! Food was nicely presented and truly delicious. Our favorites: - Hurricane shrimp - Tonijn en wasabi - Hertenbiefstuk With the 2 of us we ate well and enough, had some drinks in between and paid only 75 euros for 3 courses and 5 different dishes per person!

7/10The restaurant is very crowded, It is hard to walk as the tables are so close together. They could have also had more staff working, it was hard to reach a waitress. Food was great!

10/10This place has been a really nice discovery, in a different and super cozy area of Utrecht! The food was very good and the service friendly and fast (surprisingly considering the dutch standard...), we can't wait to try one of the tables on the beautiful terrace on the canal this summer! Ps: the "sam sam menu" is a very smart idea :)

9/10Very nice place. Totally recommend it. Food was very good, tasty and good quantities. The service is very friendly, although a bit slow for our taste. My wife and I enjoyed all we had. We will definitely go back!

7/10Lovely dinner at Blij, in the garden at the back, next to the water. The food was delicious and in generous portions (even the samsam plates). However the service was not good at all. We waited 20 minutes to even get a menu. Then we waited for our drinks for 35 minutes and realized that they were not even ordered. Another 30 minutes wait for the starters and another 30 minutes in between each course. In total it was a 3h15 minute 3 course dinner... Disappointing.

8.5/10I love the concept of samsam and the waiters were really happy and nice! The decor is really nice too, especially the terrace that gives off an idyllic vibe. I can imagine that it's even more lovely in the summer!
