Had lunch here and thoroughly enjoyed it so decided to book for our wedding anniversary and we didn't regret it. We were given a lovely table and complimentary cava on arrival. We chose the set four course meal with the suggested wine package. The food was absolutely lovely. Particularly the lamb course. We weren't rushed at all. Finished off with a fine port. Will definitely return next Sept!!

Very Good (fish)food In Old Village With View On The Habour And Heated Terrace.
Reviewed By WPT_9 - Holland
We have eaten here many times and sometimes you would expect in other restaurants a bad day or lesser quality. However not in this restaurant!! The quality is always at a very high standard and difficult to beat, even for star restaurants. It is a cozy and not too large restaurant, with lot's of space between tables. The fish is the best of the best and cannot be any fresher. ( and I ate a lot around the world ) The staff is also very nice and polite and always with a smile. Winelist is pretty large with some nice surprises on it.
Do not look any further for restaurants if you are in the neighbourhood. Even a drive from Amsterdam to this place is absolutely worth wile. You will not be disappointed.

We had an excellent 7-course dinner at De Saffraan. The food is great and all kinds of tastes will pass by. The service is excellent, really, my compliments to the staff.
Matching wines on top of your dinner is to be advised.
Atmosphere is nice, on an old sailing boat in the Eem-harbour.

Gevestigd In Een Oude Fabriek
Reviewed By Wub67 - Amsterdam, The Netherlands
The location of this restaurant is not the most favourable, although situated along the river. A bit of the beaten track, it does a good job of attracting customers. The ambiance is nice, the service friendly and knowledgable and the food is inventive and very tasty. They will accomodate almost any dish to your allergies and still make it taste wonderful.

Excellent Restaurant
Reviewed By Captain_Cee - Amsterdam
This is an experience never to forget, this food is so awfully delicious! You can see, taste, and feel that each dish consists of different sub dishes. Each little part prepared separately with love and then combined to new sensation. Wish I were rich, I'd go here every month...

Reviewed By ThomasEMM - Amersfoort, The Netherlands
Please note, my notes and review concern the restaurant part, there's also the so-called bodega part and I am less happy about that part, so I always reserve at the restaurant part. Variety of the menu is great and changes every now and then, also seasonally influenced. Both fish and meats are good, just go here and experience it for yourself.

Instead of cooking at home, we decided to eat outside. Marktzicht was the most crowded restaurant, then we realized that's why it was full of people, the dinner was fantastic. It's worth to try.

Reviewed By lucoperco - Spakenburg, The Netherlands
this tapasbar is pretending nice and fresh tapas and the opposite is true. i have been there more than a few times. and although it is mostly packed with people and you can say pretty popular, i have to say it is not very good. to simple and obvious, the ingredients not good and the cook tries to destroy it. food made without any passion or some love for cooking.

Reviewed By Henk B - Kiti, Cyprus
Not far from the former royal palace Soestdijk between Baarn and Soest this restaurant can be found on a road passing the obelisk commemorating the battle of Waterloo in 1815. It is run by a dedicated young couple, Pim and Saskia who share a real passion for cooking. Not shy of experimenting with ingredients and techniques they combine unusual tastes in very original dishes. Every course is served with an explanation reflecting the pride in their creation. Meat comes mainly from family-owned farms and in season also from private hunt. One can choose a la carte or opt for a surprise lunch or dinner. The latter consists of a sequence of small dishes which one can stop at any time. Small eaters maybe will not go beyond two dishes while others may manage to finish four but surprising they are indeed.
The ambiance is tasteful with, obviously, a lot of musical elements.
In short: a restaurant that is worth a detour.
Lunch on Friday, Saturday and Sunday only between noon and 16.00.
Dinner every day except Monday and Tuesday from 17.30 - 23.00
10. Brasserie Zuiderzoet
Overall Ratings

De oorspronkelijke brasserie is in Nederland bijna niet meer te vinden. Zonde, dus is het tijd voor de comeback van de brasserie. En dus is het tijd voor Zuiderzoet. Een authentieke brasserie aan het water. Een royale (wij hebben plaats voor 220 gasten) eet- en drinkgelegenheid met een al even ruim aanbod op de menukaart, waarop eerlijke kwaliteitsgerechten prijken. Klassiekers in een nieuw jasje, zoals een echte hamburger en lekkere saté, maar ook salades, pasta’s en fraaie vlees- en visgerechten met meer allure. Onze brasserie is voor iedereen toegankelijk. Voor de liefhebber van de eenvoudige hap, maar ook voor de fijnproever die gaat voor het ware culinaire genot. Kom met of zonder kinderen. Met kleine of grote groepen. Het kan allemaal bij Zuiderzoet. De mogelijkheden zijn legio. Kom genieten van het uitzicht en het lekkere eten aan het water van het sfeervolle Eemmeer.
