Visiting Alkmaar for a few days, came across this gem of a place. Originally a cigar manufactory,…read moreits interior is simple and easy going, and it feels relaxed. As there are not many tables reserving a table may be advisable. My choice of diner did not disappoint: the Rendang was simply devine; I can definitely recommend it. Next to it I enjoyed the nice local beer, which made it even better. If I recommend Vers? Most definitely I do!

Found this place during our stroll along the water. It was crowded outside with folks drinking and…read moresmoking, music. So we thought the food might be alright... NOT. The drink had no flavor of pina colada, the alcohol was lacking, and it was more ice than liquid. Both salads were nasty. Aloha one was tart, and the goat cheese was too sweet. So not worth that €34 plus we spent. They may have other stuff that's good, but these 2 salads were garbage. Restaurant had a cool ambiance, and the bathroom was clean.

Definitely one of my favorite spots in Alkmaar although I only get there when I am traveling solo…read moreas my colleagues look confused when I suggest we grab Indonesian for dinner. The fact that this restaurant handles large parties so well and that the host caters to eaters whims makes it even more enjoyable. My first trip was with a party of five and we wanted to graze on multiple offerings. We put ourselves in the care of our host and did not come away disappointed. Upon mentioning one of our dining companions was a vegetarian the offerings were modified on the fly to feature more selections that would appeal to all members of our party. Sometimes the storefront can be hard to find but it is well worth the trip!!

Wow I am surprised no reviews of Abby's as it is consistently recommended by the staff at the…read moreAmrath as the best location for dining in Alkmaar. Of course this recommendation is specifically why I have avoided Abby's (yes I know makes no sense). But a work colleague loves Abby's..so that is where I ended up.. I should have listened to the staff alot sooner..great spot for a meal. Started off with a Brand UP at the bar as the table for five was cleaned. Sat down and was promptly asked if we wanted a starter (Yes please two mixed starters for the table) and another drink (not yet). The reason I wish I had tried this location earlier was the daily fish special as well as some delicious items on the standard menu card. I went with the swordfish special (Zwaardvis) with tabbouleh salad and was very pleased. Companions had the tuna special (Tonjin) and a pasta and seafood item from the menu card (large pasta shells, swordfish, tuna, mussels and shrimp. I also added a savughion blanc to my meal. Dessert cards were promptly delivered post dinner and we discussed options (well they discussed I had my eye on a Highland Park single malt). They only bump in the otherwise perfect evening was a long delay from menu card delivery and return for our order (maybe 10 minutes). But it was very busy and this delay is so minor when compared to other restaurants I have visited. So Kudos to Abby's and I will certainly return on my next trip!
