8.5/10Maybe it is football night, there are more woker than customer. Maybe waitor is not used to introduce the course in English, I can not see any facial expression.

8.5/10The restaurant is situated in a charming, old building, where customers are seated in various rooms, creating a less noisy environment. Unfortunately, our experience was affected by being in a room with an overly bright chandelier and somewhat cold decor. While the service was satisfactory, considering the restaurant's quality, I was expecting a higher standard. We ordered two glasses of champagne, and I would have preferred them to be filled in front of us rather than in the kitchen. Additionally, it felt odd to be asked if we wanted fries with mayonnaise alongside our sophisticated meals, as it seems contradictory to the restaurant's purpose. Regarding the cuisine, it was excellent. Sophisticated, original, and made with fresh ingredients. Overall, it was a very good experience that could have been perfect with some minor adjustments.

10/10I contacted the restaurant letting them know about our dietary restrictions when choosing the 4-course dinner. Our requests were taken into account in the smallest detail and when the reason for our dinner was told, they surprised our daughter with a special and personalized dessert. The service was welcoming, excellent and very professional, as well as the atmosphere and food. You really created us a special evening to remember!

9/10great food, very friendly and relaxed staff, with twinkles of joy in their eyes. the place looks great, and the space is very calm, not noisy but cosy at the same time. Great food, (we had the vegetarian and the regular 4 course surprise menu which were both excellent). good wine pairing. Definitely one of our top 3 restaurants in Leiden!

10/10This restaurant looks very classy and well decorated, the chairs are very comfortable and the ambiance was very warming and welcoming. We enjoyed from an amazing variety of dishes with very tasty and well prepared ingredients, accompanied with wines that suited perfectly well with each of them. I enjoyed the dessert the most. It was suculent and extremely elaborsted with lots of flavours and textures.

9/10We were warmly welcomed by the staff and promptly seated. The restaurant has two or three dining halls, all of which are slightly differently decorated. The food and wine menus were not extensive, but the quality of the food was excellent. We also hit a winner with our choice of wine. So their dining options are well curated. The building has a long history that you can really feel during your stay. It would be nice if they translated the story also in English so that international visitors would be able to appreciate it even more. We went on a Monday night, and the restaurant was quite well visited. All in all, a lovely dinner experience!

6.5/10We booked for Christmas lunch. We asked for a children’s menu for our 8yr old but it was the adults meal with a bit of fish slapped on top! The dessert, a cheesecake was unpalatable and very heavy. The three adults on our table are all sugar adults addicts but it’s was like a brick! The starter of salmon was delicious though. Usually the food here is fabulous, but we were a little disappointed.

4.5/10A big disappointment! Had lunch with friends and ordered the 12 uurtje. Soup was good , but the long plate was brought with cured meats, little salads ec. It looked nice but taste was mediocre!! We were pretty much the only ones in the place. Now I know why!! The server looked astonished when I asked for some plates to eat off of. we ended up eating the whole meal from our bread plates. No need to return..which is a pity because the front room looks so nice and it is a great location!!! Jammer!!!!
