Our servers were helpful and able to speak english which is a huge plus for us, as we speak no dutch. We had figured out the menu online before hand so we knew what we wanted before we arrived. The food was excellent quality with fresh ingredients. The timing of the meal was excellent and we were never left wanting for beverage or assistance. The price was what we had expected - a little on the higher side - but we'd saved up just for that. All in all - a great place for a date or special occasion. If we're in the Netherlands again - we'll definitely make a stop here :-)

Can summarize it very easily: Love this place!…read more With a group of people from work, we wanted to have a dinner in Hilversum and one of the persons suggested this place. Am I happy that she did :) The concept of this place is that instead of ordering just one starter and one main dish, you have the possibility to order two smaller starters and two smaller main dishes to allow you to taste more different things :) We were with a group of 4 and decided to have only the surprise starters but one main dish per person. This was not a problem at all. Instead of giving everybody two separate starters, we even got 4 starters per two persons, allowing for even more tasting of different dishes :) Taste of all the different things I tried was very good also! Staff was also very quick and just before glasses were empty, came by asking whether we wanted to drink something more: very attentive!

Quiet surrounding with lot of green and water.... almost romantic!! It is a big restaurant... mainly Dutch/French cuisine. Great for office dinners, they can accommodate big groups. I had a very good starter, Tompouce, which is a duck leaver sandwich with Serrano ham and rucola... very well presented and tasty. I tasted the smoked salmon from my friends and it was nice... big thick chunks... very delicate. My main course was the Dutch Polder Beef stake.... cooked medium rare as I asked. Meat was tender and a good portion... quite big. Served with few thick french fries and a tasty salad with bacon. We had a good Spanish red wine which matched nicely the meaty food. Finished with a coffee .... I would not call it espresso .... they need to work on that... it was really too long and watery. The Drambuie was good... nice choice of liquors. Over all a nice dinner, pleasant place... even if it happened... I got out of the restaurant and I was smelling a lot of food.. which I do not like that much. For the price I would expect table cloth and a much more smiling service, even if they were all very efficient.

The wine was a fabulous Malbec. Also tasting some wines before making a choice was not a problem at all. As main course I had a pheasant and sauerkraut! What an excellent combination. As a dessert we had a small creme brulee, and a glass of fresh mint tea. Especially the atmosphere is unique. It is a warm welcome, a personal touch, and a good feel about how everybody should treat each other, without being formal! I will come back soon!

I mean, how can new buildings win it from the typical old Amsterdam canalhouses? I must admit that it has been done really well. And Blend blends in perfectly when talking about well done. It's the first cafe you'll find from the square. The interior decor is stylish and the terrace beautiful next to the water with it's willow trees hanging over it. Nice location. The first thing that struck me was the extremely nice service. I had a cold, so they advised me to take water with fresh mint, lemon and honey. It was not even on the menu, so it was customised according to my needs. The coffees had options of taking them with soya, goat milk, lactose free. Score 1. The second thing is the food. The food on the menu looked really nice, simple not too many choices but enough and good prices. It also had some delicious bites, pastries and deserts on it. Score 2. The third thing is the wines. The winecard is elaborate and the one I tried was really good! Score 3. The fourth thing... when bringing the drinks, the added some free snack with it! I felt like being in Spain! Score 4 Well done, Blend!
