I don’t know how to describe this restaurant… Simply MORE THAN DELICIOUS, MORE THAN TASTY. Cozy, delicious, and wonderful, my favorite place in the Netherlands. The meat was exquisite!
Ramiro
Their gravy is top notch! I love their Bali and garlic tenderloin dishes. An added bonus is the free slices of bread to finish off the gravy.

I ordered the “Loetje” (i.e., small) steak with garlic gravy. It was delicious with the slices of white bread. I ordered a portion of fries and a bottle of Rioja to share with friends.
