Nick
Simply a restaurant where you can enjoy good food, with great service and the atmosphere exactly as it should be. The food is just solid, no extremes, no fuss, just tasty! A nice piece of meat with a plate of fries and mayo, not tiny measured cups, but a generous portion. Truly Dutch style, without a mountain of salad that nobody eats anyway, I hardly saw any tables where food was left behind. Friendly staff and fast service; we had barely ordered our drinks before they were already in front of us. Highly recommended if you just want to eat well without all the unnecessary extras that end up being thrown away afterward.
Paul
Very tasty food. Good service. However, it was quite noisy due to the many stone walls and the large crowd, so little to no sound absorption. We spent €36 per person, which I think is a bit more than average.
Eric
Loetje is always great. Delicious food and (almost) always very good and friendly service. The atmosphere at the Nijmegen location was also nice, busier than usual and therefore a bit noisy. We usually go to Gorssel and think that location is absolutely top. Nijmegen is different, but just as good, and the food is very consistent with excellent quality at all Loetje restaurants so far. See you soon at one of the locations!
Hillebrand
Great steak, and the gravy too, especially!
Wimme
Had a nice meal, the steak was of good quality. Enough reason to go back again!
Jopie
Phew, after a tough day at the office, I couldn’t have wished to end up anywhere better than here. I had been invited by friends. The day went poorly and colleagues knew how to wear me out. Despite fatigue and doubts, a few hours later I still stepped into this Loetje building. It was worldly. The service, the food, and just the atmosphere full of enjoyment. Definitely worth repeating, thank you!
Tom
Yesterday, we had an incredibly delicious meal here, the steak was to die for, and the service was top-notch, we will definitely be coming back!
Duncan

Jade
Delicious food! Good and friendly service. Steak as it should be and the appetizers were also very tasty and well-seasoned. Desserts also delicious. Especially the mango passion fruit bavarois was amazing.
David
Had a really nice meal. Excellent service, everything was fresh, warm, and quick.
Chris
Had a lovely lunch and enjoyed a superb steak. The atmosphere is somewhat less due to the somewhat large-scale setup. But that more than makes up for it with the view and the excellent food.
Ayese
For the first time at Loetje Nijmegen for cake. Super service! Especially Fleur was very friendly and sociable, really top-notch. We will definitely come back!
Gerrit
Super delicious Had steak with chicken livers. Nowhere else as delicious as at Loetje. Due to the busyness, sometimes you get the feeling that they have forgotten about you.
Mirella
Loetje Nijmegen is highly recommended. Beautiful location. Especially when the sun is shining and you can sit outside comfortably. We were warmly welcomed by Demy. We felt at home and welcome. Together with the delicious food, it was a fantastic experience that we wish for many others.
