We visited De Verbeelding for dinner recently, and it turned out to be one of the hidden gems of Delft. It's a cozy restaurant with a small but mighty menu, mostly French-Belgian influenced, I'd say. They serve no fuss, old and trusted recipes with their own twist. We had a table for two reserved, outside on their boat which was quiet and peaceful on a Sunday evening. We ordered our mains from their daily dish menu. We had the catch of the day, which was botervis with saffron sauce and roasted pheasant, which was the chef's choice on that day. All mains are served with vegetables and thick cut fries. Both dishes were delicious, well-seasoned and prepared. The fish had a nice crust, and the pheasant had crisped up quite a bit. Their homemade fries were one of the best I've had in Delft so far, I was so tempted to order another serving. For dessert, we tried the American cheesecake and it was tasty as well. They have a pretty decent wine menu, with a handful of options per glass, and good value. I had a Verdejo with my fish, it was fresh, fruity and acidic, nicely balanced with a relativelylong finish for a Verdejo. I imagine it'd pair well with most of the dishes on their menu. The staff is really kind, cheerful and they did their best to help explain the food. There were 2 large groups with 20+ people inside when we first arrived, and one of the waiters cautioned that our food might take longer than usual to arrive. But it was actually the opposite, our mains were served in less than 20 minutes, even before our drinks made it to the table! Overall, we had a lovely dinner at De Verbeelding, we really enjoyed our time. We'll definitely visit again!

Nice dishes and good quality of ingredients. However, the service was extremely slow and a couple of times the personnel forgot about our requests (extra set of cutlery, bottle of water, tissues).

This restaurant serves food of good quality, very reasonably priced. The service was not rapid, as I went in at the peak time, but everything was effective.

This is a great restaurant with a relaxed vibe! The food is really good, quality never disappoints and I’ve been coming here for almost 10 years. Possible improvements: wine cart and noise level indoors.
