It was…read morealso a big opportunity to meet some fellow Facebook runners of whom I'd never met in person before. Since we were only together briefly, my fellow Facebook/Runkeeper friends wanted to celebrate. This restaurant is a really nice steak house, but I'm vegetarian. (This wasn't my choice and I didn't know of any options, being a visitor. So yes, they pulled a vegetarian into a meat house. I suppose if they ever visit the States, I'll make them eat brussel sprouts lol.) Other than the Catch of the Day option, there was the risotto on the menu. I must say it was an excellent choice because the taste was exceptional! When they found out that it was my birthday (I guess it was a given due to loud singing), our beautiful server gave me a gift of their award winning house gin and a bottle of tonic. While I'm not really a gin drinker, I've not decided what to do with it yet. It will keep for now. That was really nice of them. The atmosphere is low key and casual. We had a great time. If you're a meat eater, and in accordance with comments from the carnivores in my group, I'd recommend this place for dining when you're in the vicinity of Leiden. Cheers! #leidenmarathon #wilworksUK

The mixed grill offered a bit of all of the meat selections, sans the chicken. Everything was flavorful. Do note that there is charcoal continuing to heat/cook the mixed grill, so you'll want to shuffle stuff around so you don't over cook the beef cuts. Desserts were outstanding.

Yesterday I went to have dinner with a friend at El Gaucho in Leiden. I must say that it is more…read morethan 10 years that I go there and as much as I find the wine selection not the best, the food has always been quite good. I had a very bad experience with a waiter, possible the manager of the restaurant, I am not sure, he behaved like he was in charge. I called to reserve a table for two for the evening, I asked for a table close to a window, if possible. When I arrived I was given not a table at the window, while there was a free table (not marked as reserved) close to a window, a table for 4 people. I asked if I could get that table if free, since it was already 20:15 (it was unlikely for them to fill that table), he said no because I had bookd just a few hours earlier, I then asked to see other available tables in the back of the restaurtant, and he eventually accomodated me on a table for 4. So, the feeling was that I could not get a table close to a window just because he said so. OK. After a few minutes a table for 2 close to a window got available and somebody else kindly transfered me there. When I order the food, I was clarifying with the waiter the piece of meat I wanted, this guy come close, jumped into the conversation and told me I should not ask such things and have no expectations that my wishes could be fulfilled (I have asked for the same thing everytime I have been there for the last 10 years and was never disappointed, and also yesterday eventually what I got was ok), still this guy had to be like that with me. Then, at 21:30 we were brought the menu for dessert, at 21:42 we asked for a dessert, and the same guy told us that the kitchen was closed at 21:30, we were not reminded of that when they brought us the menu, nor we knews what time it was, we were having a good time and did not mind the time. I asked to still make an effort, as we really wanted to have a dessert, which by the way is not something that you cook on the moment, it is just something you place on a dish and bring to the table. Anyway, the guy (still the same guy) said that that was impossible, and he refused to go and ask in the kitchen, and treted me like I was crazy just only asking for it. Left us with no dessert. He said we could order coffees, we said no, and he brought us the bill 3 minutes after that (we did not ask for it), and 3 more minutes after someone else came with the machine to make us pay (again, we did not ask for it, and they even refused to split the bill). Result, this guy ruined the good experience we were having. He works in the hospitality business but he is definitely an amateur of this business and ruined the experience for us, it felt like he was being mean to me from the moment I stepped into the restaurant. Not going to El Gaucho anymore, there are many other good places for steak in Leiden or in Den Haag. I am very disappointed!

Compared to other places the quality of the meat is quite good and also it has an add-on advantage for people who look for halal meat because it's 100% halal. I would recommend them to work on the chicken sate dish because compared to other sates I've had, these were quite big chunks of chicken which affected the flavor. But certainly they still deserve a five star. Anyways, had some dessert as well and the red velvet cake with the latte macchiato was a perfect closing. I'd like to get back to try more on the menu like the mocktails!

So, I had made reservations on Thursday evening, but our plans changed and we had to cancel. We tried again the next night, but had to pay a non-cancel "deposit" of 10 euros each for our party of five, 50 euro. But we were sure we could make it and booked. Now if you're thinking that the deposit was charged due to our prior cancellation, it's not the case since another person in our party booked the second reservation. It was well worth the deposit! Firstly, the location is in the Rembrandt area and very nice and active area. We were seated just inside the restaurant, with a very comfortable table, seats and window. The ambiance is great with popular music playing and a very bustling staff that is very attentive, friendly and helpful. The menu is vast and includes a lot of great options including French favorites such as frog legs and snails. We started with an adventurous order of the frog legs and they were amazingly good and the sauce was amazing! We ordered a bit of family style including the Cote Beouf, French onion soup, baked potato, fries, vegetables, chicken, ribeye. It was the perfect amount for the five of us and left room for dessert, which we ordered as a brownie and we asked for a custom dessert of ofogato, or ice cream with espresso poured over, an Italian favorite of mine! The price is reasonable and can highly recommend!

Since we came pretty late, none of the appetizers were available and only steaks. Which was fine for me, since I didn't want to waste any valuable calories on anything but steak.

European medium rare borders closer to rare than medium, which is fine for me as long as the steak is cooked well. Quite tasty! Service was fine, no complaints from me. Honestly can't believe I've never been to De Nachtwacht before. Definitely need to come back.
