What remains are the arches where the restaurant and several boutiques are based. The location is convenient and easy to reach and has a certain industrial charm that is hard to beat - the roar of the railway next door is unavoidable but not annoying. Foodwise this is a surprise package - the quality is extremely high. We took the five course menu with wines which was good value. The dishes are made with great attention to detail and have very delicate and surprising flavour combinations. The sourcing is fresh produce and it truly cant be faulted - the restaurant really surprised me. Dutch upscale or pretentious restaurants generally fail to meet the standard I am used to from living and working in Brussels. This one exceeds it easily - service was friendly and well informed - they take themselves perhaps a tad seriously in terms of looking hip - but hey to each his own. Any downsides? Well there was a huge lag between two dishes due to the restaurant being busy and the main course duck was overcooked for my companion and undercooked in my case. The bits that weren't were delicious however. Honestly though, the rest of the vegetables with the duck were perfect and in harmony with the main dish. Really this is a great restaurant and you should go and check it out.

I visit this restaurant on special occasions, for example to celebrate a beautifull summer day ;-)…read more The chef opened his first restaurant a couple years back, before moving to the Hofbogen. I love his style, using a lot of veggies and flowers and off the grid preparations. There are two choices here: vegetarian or meat/fish. If you don't like certain food, just let them know. A wonderfull 4-course menu will be served as a surprise. Just one note: serves tends to be rather slow. Other then that: great food, relaxed atmosphere!

Possibly the worst dining experience of my life. I have never been so eager to leave a restaurant…read moreand sadly we were not the only table. We skipped a course to get done earlier and still it took over 4 hours to receive all our food. There was one waiter who came to check on us and was very kind but besides him the service was terrible. The food was ok. It looked pretty but nothing besides the beetroot sourdough bread was memorable or tasty. The ambiance was lacking as well. It was a very dry sort of place and lacking is the best word to describe the entire experience. I honestly questioned how they had a Michelin star let alone two.

They let you pick your own knife to use for the night from a small collection around the world. The food is phenomenal with surprises throughout the meal you won't expect and some of the best sauces I've ever had on food. It was magic!

I come here quite often. Food is really good, but takes forever to serve. We were waiting for…read morealmost one and a half hours for our burgers. Restaurant wasn't even that crowded. Would recommend to speed up services. We ended up given free drinks as we waited way too long for our food. Previously, it took the waitress forever to give us the menu. However this time, food came about 30 minutes after we placed our orders. Overall, cozy place, great ambiance, and tasty food with good but very slow services. Would recommend Thuisch to anyone who's not in a hurry, looking for a place to chill or simply just to hang with friends or family. Defo don't come with an empty stomach.
