We visited…read moreabout 1 year ago and I wanted to do something special for my Oma (who has always supported me) so I selected a nice tasting menu close to her home of Baarn. Little did I know this was the restaurant where my Opa proposed to her - what a beautiful surprise!!! The location is remote, peaceful and the grounds of the restaurant are beautiful (including a garden where they grow some of their own produce). The service was attentive, friendly and respectful. We went for the largest tasting menu with wine pairings - the pairings were also very well received (my oma mentioning she did not like red wine much, but after her first taste said "this is pretty good I think I could like this"). The food was truly gorgeous, thoughtful and technique driven without being overbearing. The ingredients were fresh and I still recall (a year later) the langoustine, foie and green apple dish that was the stand out of the night -- that's my kind of surf n' turf. It is experiences like this that remind me why the Michelin guide might be so stingy in cities like Chicago - because the food here was truly on a different level and wildly deserving of a star. DELICIOUS!!!!

However just a few steps away there are better options! Pros: - Very cute and accommodating place. Even when the company is large and full of children. - Large and yummy portion of "mosselen med frie or Moules-frites" (mussels with fries). Believe me this classical, almost national dish, can be made bad in Holland and Belgium! - CARPACCIO. - Nicely combined set menus. Cons: - A little too expensive for what it really is. - Thai favoured cuisine in a French pretending/Euro-inspired restaurant is meh. - Somewhat uneven red meat/steak cuts in terms of quality.

Excellent Cuisine in a Cozy and Elegant Atmosphere…read more Five of us ate here for a family dinner after a special event. I had taken a peek at it in the daytime, but can say that it far surpassed my expectations in atmosphere, service and cuisine when we went there for our dinner. The atmosphere is warm and cozy, but elegant. When you dine there, you feel that this is a special place. The lighting was intimate, but not to dim to make it hard to see or too bright so as to white-out the atmosphere. The furnishings and place settings we're tasteful. The food was excellent. We all had mostly different dishes, from meats, to fish, and everyone thought his or her dishes were excellent. The courses were presented beautifully and served with the right amount of attention so as to be neither intrusive nor lacking.

A nice restaurant for lunch and dinner, suitable for business as well as romantic get-togethers. The atmosphere is trendy-cosy. In winter you enjoy a drink close to the fireplace and if the weather is good you can dine outside. That is what I did today starting with oysters after the amuse. They serve two kinds of oyster (gotta love this place), so we had a mixture of both with a nice wine to support the flavour. We continued with lobster and a fabulous white Rioja. The cheese platter was a great third course and a great combination served with the right companions like figues, nuts, marmalade, etc and off-course a good glass of port. Service is very good and the owner really took time to tell the story of how he built this place, still keeping an eye on the other guests and if all was going well. Enjoyed his story and entrepreneurship, but most of all his food. The lobster was cooked a bit too long, but that is forgiven.

I think we were the first to arrive for dinner around five. We quickly settled on the option for a "carte blanche" chef's choice (four courses plus extras for 50 Euro). That sort of dinner is my post-night-flight ideal: Something exciting to keep everyone up late enough to ward off jet-lag, gladly entrusting many of the decisions to someone more awake. They suggested it would be reasonable to split that for two between our family of three, given the kid's smaller appetite, that was definitely the correct call. The meal was phenomenal, every dish was a beautiful blending of textures and flavors. They cleverly paired the dishes for each course. Everything looked perfect, starting with the food, but the whole dining area was a lovely space, including the view into the open kitchen. Even the flower arrangements around the dining room were strikingly beautiful. The staff were all very friendly and attentive. I enjoyed a beer from Utrecht's own Brouwerij Eleven to accompany my meal. Koenraad's selection of beer is smaller than their extensive wine list, but has a reasonable amount of variety. I didn't look at the wine list in detail, but the other parties present seemed pleased with their selections.

I love the industrial vibe, the modern setting, and the personel are really doing their best at giving you a great evening. Would give them 5 stars if it was a little less draughty and if the cocktails would be served in proper cocktail glasses, 'cause man; this place is PERFECT FOR COCKTAILS!!!

We were blown away. d'Ertepeller is 3 separate restaurants in one; a wine bar, bistro and a Fine Dining room. Feel like a quick bite? Head to the wine bar or bistro. Something more substantial? The Restaurant is the ticket. We ordered the Chef's Menu with Wine Course. Amazing. Phenomenal Old and New World wines coupled with 5 amazing courses that ranged from Japanese inspired sashimi to caviar to sweet breads. Each course more delicious than the next. Coupled with a beautifully elegant dining room, superlative service, all fluent in English and often another language, and d'Ertepeller is the place to go when near Rotterdam.
