Super delicious meal! Very friendly, helpful service. You don’t get your food quickly, but what you get is superb. Plus: free parking right at the door!! I will definitely come back again.
PS!! Normally, spicy in a restaurant isn’t spicy. The counter gravy here is! Be warned. I found it absolutely delicious!

Delicious meal at Loetje Enschede! The atmosphere is warm and cozy, exactly what you expect from Loetje. The steak was perfectly cooked and, of course, generously served with that famous gravy, remains a favorite. The service was friendly, prompt, and clearly attentive to the guests.

Last nite, I went out to dinner with a friend at Loetje. It was nice that after a phone call, we were allowed to come half an hour earlier. Even when we asked if we could have a quiet spot, this was possible. Everything was already in a beautiful Christmas atmosphere, we were quickly helped in a friendly manner, and the service was prompt and very warm. The food was very tasty and looked beautiful and well-presented. For dessert, we had a delicious cream puff with ice cream.

If you enjoy a good steak, it is definitely recommended to visit Loetje at least once. The restaurant is tastefully decorated, the staff is friendly, and not entirely unimportantly, they have their own blonde beer on tap, “Loetje Blond.” The food is good with a traditional concept that is not deviated from.

Loetje’s Bali steak with white bread is really a must-try! The steak is super tender and perfectly cooked, and the spicy gravy adds just that extra touch. The white bread is perfect for dipping into the delicious sauce. Simple, but incredibly delicious!
