When I opened the massive leather bound wine list, I was amazed. You can get lovely glasses of sauvignon blanc or pilot noir for €4. The rest of the wines are between 5-7 by the glass, with sparkling white wine for €4 as well. Bargain! They have loads of bottles at both everyday and special occasion prices. Someone has put a lot of money into the decor here, it feels very decadent and luxurious. You can also get charcuterie plates. The staff are very warm and friendly, even to scruffy types like myself. A real find among the overpriced Den Haag bars.

The descriptions on the menu can be enigmatic but it's impossible to be disappointed with the chef's masterful creations at Basiliek. My friend and I came to enjoy a night out and celebrate our 38 years of friendship and toast to many more. The cocktails are refreshing and the dishes are phenomenal. We shared the very creative and surprising rock shrimp appetizer, and enjoyed the cooked to perfection eggplant entree and the fine spicy mackerel salad. The flavors of the dishes are unique and succulent. For dessert we had the date-chocolate cake with ice cream and a special limoncello smoothie! Our server, Irene fro Salamanca, Spain is incredible! She went above and beyond to make our celebration unforgettable. Highly recommended!!

I'm leaving down here my previous review. I have to update it as the place changed a bit. It's…read morestill a very nice place, but there's less nice tapas, they switched a bit more Italian and I'm not as big fan as before. So it's not anymore this nice little wine bar with tapas, it became a bit more restaurant type, even though one can still come for a nice glass of wine. ------- We've recently discovered the place and it's just great. It's a mix between a wine bar and a tapas place, dimmed lights, very cosy. "gezellig" as they say in Dutch. You get good service, quick to respond to anything, welcoming and friendly. The wines are good and you can get them for great prices. They don't try to pretend anything, it's just as you need it :-) The tapas are very good. Nothing to recommend particularly. I did not leave anything on the plates... One little downside is that it's advised to book to be sure to have a place if you come at the end of the week or during the weekend...

Summary: Great atmosphere…read more Excellent service (top notch trained staff) Wonderful cuisine Somewhat expensive - but food, service and atmosphere are definitely worth paying a bit extra to experience! We ended our 2 week family holiday in Europe dining here and we were completely delighted. Our server was extremely professional and articulate and made our evening great. The wine list is quite extensive. We chose a 2005 French Burgundy. The wine sommelier did a masterful job opening and presenting the excellent wine. Our party of five each ordered their own dishes, and all of them were perfectly prepared and attractively presented. Delicious! A kitchen with real chefs at work. We ended with two desserts. They were very small and fancy in their appearance, but lacked a bit in satisfying our group. They were a bit tiny and polite. A bit larger and more lavish flavors would have been appreciated. Overall, this was our top restaurant experience over a two week vacation where we dined out nearly every night across France, Germany and the Netherlands!

Came here to enjoy the fireworks festival and ended up craving a bit of wine and food as it was a bit chilly. After staring at the myriad of options, we ended up at La Galleria as it afforded outdoor seating with a flame to keep us warm, and the sofas looked darn comfortable! Service is really good, with a lot of staff walking around and making sure you have what you need. Your orders arrive in a jiffy and are decently presented. We ended up ordering two glasses of red wine recommended by the server. It was nice! For dinner, they also serve slices of bread with butter as something to munch on while you wait for your food. We had an eggplant parmesan-ish dish for appetizer, but forget about eating it by yourself; it was massive! For the main course, I had eggplant ravioli, while V had pasta with pesto and cheese. My dish was alright, but there was a bit of sweetness that I couldn't point my finger at for the cause. It had a lot of sauce in it and the size of my portion was big enough to leave me very very full! All in all, I thought the appetizer was hotter and more delicious than my main course. Oh, but the best part is the dessert! We shared a platter of 3 ice cream scoops - walnut, vanilla, and pistachio, and it was some of the best ice cream I had had all summer! There was just the right amount of chocolate sauce on the side and those crunchy sweet things that taste good on ice cream. It had a big serving of whipped cream on the side, too. So, why the 3 stars? Mainly because while the service was great and the dessert splendid, I don't think it was anything out of the ordinary, overall. The biggest draw is the location. Prices are alright, with a dinner with 2 main courses, a dessert, an appetizer, and 2 glasses of wine each coming to about €60. They do have a kids menu which makes them kid friendly, too!
