In general, I dislike eating lobster in a restaurant as it is typically a snobby affair and I have yet to master eating and enjoying a lobster without having it all over me. But Den Beer is super informal, it is like you go to your grammy's house to eat. The owner is 78 years old, she is a real gem: fierce but welcoming. The food itself is why I keep on coming here and keep on wanting to come back: the lobster is just DELICIOUS. I've tried several styles over the years and all are finger licking good. The lobsters are always super juicy and cooked to perfection, it would be hard to pick my favorite style as all of them are the bomb but maybe the grilled flambe with whiskey has a slight edge in my book. I truly wish Gusje, the owner, a long life and good health as I will continue to come again and again!

When you are in the Netherlands you need to eat fish, they have all kinds of sorts you will not find in the US, so you don't want to miss out. The portions are generous, one portion of kibbeling feeds 2 easily. I started of with the Simonis soup a small bowl with an amazingly tasty and rich seafood soup. The service is fast , and the experience is priceless. Enjoy when you are in Scheveningen.

Honestly, we should have gotten one order of fries to share since both fried fish entries were already big portions. There's also a section where you can get a bunch of dipping sauces for your fried fish. From the two fried fishes, I enjoyed eating the kibbeling more than the lekkerbekje.

As the previous reviews are so old, I'm happy to report that things at Vigo are still as wonderful…read moreas they once were. My wife and I, visiting from the States, happened upon this lovely, small-ish place in a neighborhood not far from our hotel. We arrived sans reservations but were welcomed warmly, seated quickly, and brought bread and water to nibble as we perused the menu. The bread came with butter and a mackerel spread, which accentuated the wonderful European bread nicely. Oysters on the half-shell and Sauvignon Blanc started the serious dining. The oysters were from the Netherlands and Portugal, while the wine was from South Africa. All were delicious. For the main courses, my wife had the sea bass while I enjoyed the lobster special. It had been roughly the Clinton administration since I had lobster, and this one made it worth the wait. Our server was attentive and made sure our questions were answered to our satisfaction before we ordered, then checked back to be sure all was to our liking. It was indeed! A second glass of wine was our dessert before we headed out into the rainy night. Rain or shine, I'd recommend Vigo without hesitation.

It has been a long time since I've last written a review on Yelp, but after having eaten at The…read moreFish Market yesterday, I felt compelled to write about my experience. We had made reservations for ten people, but our group arrived in smaller groups over a period of an hour. The Fish Market was very understanding and patient with us, and we happily enjoyed some wine and oysters during this time. When we were finally all together and had ordered, the food was quickly prepared and served. Moreover, the dishes were presented beautifully and in a grand fashion; the portions are not small, at all. I had the pleasure of enjoying the sole (zeetong), which was very delicious, simply serves with a cup of clarified butter. A perfect combination. The rest of the table enjoyed the mussels, the cold seafood platter, and a mixed grill. Everybody enjoyed their food very much, and it must be said that our group included an Australian top chef; she too was impressed by the quality of the food. One batch of mussels were unfortunately cold when they arrived to the table, but when we pointed this out, the host apologized and was happy to take it back and produce a new, fresh serving. The design and atmosphere of the restaurant is interesting; unlike other restaurants, the Fish Market doesn't care for dimly lit lights or red chairs. Rather, with the white tiles and industrial lamps, they have tried to make it look and feel like you are in the back-end shop of a fish monger. As eerie as that may sound, it isn't. Strangely enough, it makes for the perfect place to have some good quality seafood. Overall, the quality of the food was extremely well, which, in combination with the great service and atmosphere, makes The Fish Market my new favorite in town.

I skipped some of the cold items (snails, small shrimp) because they were either too hard to eat or I didn't like the taste. Surprisingly, the best thing we had was the lobster bisque. I don't think I'd get the platter again. The seafood was okay but I don't know that it was worth the price. The lobster we had had very little meat inside. Service was friendly but the restaurant was basically empty the whole time we were there. Hopefully it picked up once we left because this is a local spot a little off the beaten path of tourist restaurants.
