I had dinner here once and it was lovely. It is a classy restaurant, and it is just around the corner of where I live so very easy to get to (and to come home from after a bottle of wine!)

Uit eten
My favourite restaurant. The food is beautiful and the atmosphere is lovely. In summer you can eat al fresco here. And it's just around the corner. Good for coffee and a croque monsieur too :-)
