What can I tell you about this restaurant?…read more I highly recommend reservations because it is a smaller space. Their offerings are very fresh, but also have some unique meats such as guinny fowl, wild dove, and venison. We all chose the Chefs Choice (4) courses and stated things we don't eat. I for one have a seafood allergy so they didn't bring me any. My nephew hates mushrooms, so they didn't bring him any, etc. They brought homemade bread with a aioli butter. In no particular order I had the(1) Cheese foam (parmasean) with a roasted tomato (2) the steak tar tar. It was extra lean beef, seasoned to perfection. It had raw egg yolk on top with truffle sprinkled on top, it sat on top of a cracker. It was delicious but incredibly rich! (I shared with the others). (3) Tri-tip steak with endive and other veggies. (4) Dessert that was the perfect amount it was a marshmallow fruity melt in your mouth flavor. We enjoyed two bottles of wine between the six of us. Ambiance was perfect. The wait staff really explained every course to perfection. It was truly a culinary experience. I hope to come back during my next Haarlem visit!

I was checking places to go for a nice dinner with my girlfriend and I found this place. During the…read moreweek they offer a 3 course menu for 15 Euro. We decided to give it a try and passed by the restaurant without making reservation on Tuesday evening. It is a very small restaurant in one of the side streets from Haarlem main market. After bringing us the drinks the waitress, who didnt seem too interested in her job, brought the menus and to my surprise the 15 Euro "stunt" menu wasnt include there and she didnt mention it. Moreover there is no information about the menu anywhere in the restaurant, but only on their website. After asking about the special menu we heard that this is indeed a possibility and we could choose out of 3 options for each course. We went ahead with tomato soup - for my friend and carpaccio for me, for main - devil scampi - those were spicy small shrimps with turkish bread, aioli and salad - you can pay 2.5 Euro extra for fries, which we didnt do. For the desert - coconut and passionfruit cake. The food overall was quite tasty and a good value for money - 15 Euro we spent. Why did i give only 3 stars - the service lacked attention and waitress didnt inform us about special menu, moreover - quality of food for 15 Euro was quite good, however paying a full menu price I would find it overpriced.
