It is hip trendy not too trendy that you would feel intimidated. Eye candy... well well ladies for sure your eyes will be confortable. People watching, easy and comfortable clothing, concrete floor, heels not necessary. The menu is easy, the drink are simple and reasonably priced. The toilet are simple enough to stay clean The skinny is: they will need more seats inside as the crowd will grow more and more, but... there are also a massive lounge outside. Would I recommend this spot? Yes for sure, the space is large and easy. I need to check it again when it is not raining.

If you are sharing a meal with someone, get items from a different prix-fixe menu and you can both try a variety of items. We enjoyed: * Charcuterie plate: sausages taste minimally processed and delicious * Beef and onion stew: taste slightly different than ones in America * Cauliflower and cheese oven bake: vegetarian's comfort food * Hutspot (mashed potatoes and carrots) and meatballs: non-vegetarian's comfort food * Pea soup with smoked ham For desserts, we had chocolate mousse and vlaflip (vanilla custard) and they were just okay. I'm not sure if desserts are the Dutch's strengths, except maybe the Dutch apple pie. They even bottle their own house beer. The restaurant is small. Try to make a reservation if you can. We didn't have a reservation, but went to the restaurant at around 5PM and were seated in about 15 minutes. At times, the line could get very long, but the staff is still welcoming and ensures that everyone gets served...eventually.

Portions are substantial and a very good value in a neighborhood where tourist-markups are the norm. They have a/c, but in order to feel it you'll need to sit closer to the back of the restaurant/near the kitchen, as there is only one wall unit back there, and they leave the front of the restaurant open to the elements (even in 98+ degree heat).

It is in the lobby hotel, and when you walk into the hotel it's directly to your left. The service was amazing, everyone was very friendly. We had Rose as our server, she was very personable and gave great recommendations about the menu. My family and I got the fish special, the flat iron steak, the mussels, and the crème brûlée.

It's on the fifth floor in the black office looking building, that sits lonely in the field. No signs outside. Nothing. You take the elevator to the 5th floor and the restaurant opens up in front of you. Large window wall, industrial ceilings, lights. It looks very cool. We arrived at 18:45 - a bit late for our reservation because we were lost. They had probably 5 tables at that time. Ordered 3 course dinner, and here is where I am taking a star away - it took us nearly 2 hours to get an appetizer, main course and the desert. With a lot of waiting in between. Some tables that arrived after us got their meal served before us (same 3 course) some tables were served much later. Food was interesting, I wouldn't rave about it but it's a good value meal. I don't want to be back, but if you are in the area, and tired of you regular place then I think it's worth giving it a try.

We got there at 7:30pm for our dinner reservation, had to still wait 40 minutes for our table and menus, then waited two hours for our main courses. We didn't get out of there until the restaurant was empty at 11pm. To me this is unacceptable. I was falling asleep by the time dessert finally arrived and asked for it take away - but they told me the chef doesn't allow this...

We came here to surprise my friend for her birthday in October as it was a close restaurant to our hotel and airport. The staff were absolutely amazing and accommodating and the food was so good! They have the best bouillabaisse I have ever had. The picture does not do it justice and I don't know if you can see the video I took of pouring the fish stock over the generous portion of seafood. I still think about that dish every day and wish the chef could give me their recipe. If you are in the area, you must visit!! All the other dishes my friends ordered were quite delicious as well. Great job to the owners and staff for making our visit so memorable.

It can be similar to a chef's table experience where you will recieve several courses including surprise complementary appetizers wherein the server gives a quick explanation of how each dish is prepared. Conversation is great because no music is played. Staff is excellent. So don't come if you're looking to be stuffed full with grilled or fried food or to get a cheeseburger. It's not that kind of place. You will spend a little more money than a usual dinner, but is an excellent choice for a date night.
