What a bummer! This…read morerestaurant looks nice and is in the middle of the centre. But the lunch is way overpriced and nothing special. The panini with warm salmon was just gross. The hamburger was not good. And even the bread with cheese was boring and falling apart.

Emmen must have the largest concentration of Italian restaurants in the country! After spending an…read moreentirely amazing rainy evening at WildLands we were ready for a good meal. After a bit of exploring the area and finding at least 3 more Italian restaurants, we decided to get a table at Da Paolo. Let me begin by saying that it is FANCY. The staff was impeccably dressed and the interior was classy. They even hang your coats for you. The kitchen is visible from the entrance to help lure you in. Once inside, the table was big and chairs comfortable. I noticed that almost everyone besides me was dressed formal (well, I did spend my evening at a zoo!). Since I was carrying two large bottles of water for the hotel room later, the wait staff thought that I had brought my own water with me to save money and asked me to order water. Kind of presumptuous but still not bad enough to knock off a star from the rating. I mean this is Netherlands, people are direct (rude). The menu doesn't have a bunch of vegetarian options but if you settle for pizza they are able to make it just the way you want it. I went with the regular tomato sauce pasta with mushrooms and some zucchini. V had a pizza with some veggies. They also served some bread to nibble on as we waited for our food to arrive. The house red wine was nothing spectacular but good nonetheless. For dessert, we shared a tiramisu. I followed up with a double espresso to help me muster strength for the walk back in storm winds and rain. All in all, 4 stars for a metropolis like Amsterdam but deserving 5 for a small town like Emmen. I was expecting to eat at a snack bar past 6PM.

Later at night you hear the music from the night club next door which is nice or not depending on the mood. Giving 3/5 because my partners vegetarian dish was a bit bland.
