I got the one recommended by my waiter, the creamy veggie miso Ramen, and the lower right corner of the menu. This one is not spicy. Next time I come, I will try one of the spicy ones. I got the lychee soda, which is a little too subtle for my taste, but I find that it grows on you. They also have Kirin on draft as well as bottles of Heineken and a 0% Heineken. And of course they have green tea as well as the usual stuff. Ok, the food: these are freshly-made japanese noodles. That means there's a wait for your food, and in my experience, it was substantial. Don't come here if you're in a hurry. This experience may be a one-off, as the waiter apologized for the wait and brought me a free refill of the lychee soda. The noodles were fine, a substantial meal with lots of vegetables in the soup. I added some soy sauce as it was pretty bland. Next time I would ask for some of their black garlic oil. I would come back, if only to try the spicy dish (they describe the spicy sauce as "numbing"!), but I think this place would be great for meat eaters.

This place absolutely saved my palate after weeks of deep-fried seafood (with mayo), fries (with mayo/peanut sauce and onion), and many hash joints. I still remember I got the nasi goreng and chicken sate, and they were absolutely godsends, especially after a long time of having the flavour I was not the biggest fan of (mayo). I remember I brought a kiwi with me for this meal, and the flavour also blew her mind as she hadn't had anything like this in her own adventure in the Netherlands. Great and relaxing vibe too I'll for sure visit the Netherland again and come to warung mini.

Fjord was by far the best meal I had in Rotterdam…read more Located right by the water, the views were perfect and the restaurant itself was beautiful. Great to be in the air conditioning while the sun was beating down outside! Seafood is the name of the game at Fjord, so when in Fjord... I started out with the salmon sashimi. Thick sliced salmon served with soy sauce and ginger. Some of the best and freshest salmon I've ever had. For my main, I went with the whole dorade, which was cooked in a saltcrush layer. It sounded interesting, but the presentation was even better. My waitress came over with the fish still covered in the salt shell, cracked it open, and then uncovered the fish inside with a fork and knife for me before skinning it. Dinner and a show! The fish was cooked perfectly, really tender and meaty. I think I ate every little bit that was left. If you're in Rotterdam and love seafood, I would definitely recommend Fjord! It's reasonably priced and everyone was wonderful!

My husband comes to Rotterdam often and he raved about this restaurant the last time he was there…read more On this last trip, the kids and I went with him and while in Rotterdam we tried this restaurant ( our kids are 7 and 10, well behaved, so we take them out often). We had been to other nice restaurants and all have offered kid menus. Unfortunately, this restaurant did not offer kid friendly options other thank french fries. So since we had already taken the Metro down there, we just ordered the 3 course surprise menu with wine pairing and added the fries and lentil dish plate for the kids. The first course was just sashimi/fish and a small portion (all the courses came out on one plate). The sashimi was good but we get pretty good sushi and sashimi in California so we were not blown away by the first surprise. The 2nd surprise was aged steak with a couple of sides. Honestly, I don't even recall since it wasn't that great and again small portions. However, the steak was perfectly cooked and tasty. The 3rd course was a dessert, a brownie with a sorbet but the chocolate brownie was pretty dry. Overall, the food we received was just okay...nothing I would rave about. As I mentioned previously, the portion size for each plate was not that big so we ended up eating some of the kids fries while we waited in between plates. Our poor kids were so dissapointed too we had to make it up to them after we left. The restaurant was very clean and modern. The host who took our jackets was very kind, shy but kind. Our waiter was incredibly friendly and had a great personality. We definitely appreciated their effort to help us with picking out food options and speaking English since we don't speak any Dutch. We won't be returning as a family and my hubby is thinking twice about returning since we all felt like it was a big let down. There were plenty of other good restaurants that also catered to families.

Caramel pork perfectly trod the fine line between sweet and savoury, the rich caramelised sugar offset by the right balance of fish sauce.

Both dishes were just the right side of filling and mains for two with drinks came in at a very reasonable 36 Euros. If you are looking for something different from the usual Thai and Cantonese food then Vivu comes heartily recommended.

Wow, what a great find (albeit more pricey than I'd expected)! Mum and I were in town to check out…read morethe World Press Photo 2018 Winners exhibition being held at the WTC, and afterward, wanted to have an Indian Vegetarian dinner, before heading back to Amsterdam. This restaurant popped up with the high reviews, and it was also perfectly situated in between the WTC and Rotterdam Centraal station. We made our way up an elevator to the restaurant (there's two restaurants here, one Indian and one Chinese) and the dining room is a massive, well laid out and luxurious space. Our meal consisted of the following items: 1) Papads with chutney as an amuse bouche - there were two papad and served with a trio of chutneys. I loved the mango chutney while my mum liked the yogurt more. We were indifferent about the mint chutney. 2) A little tomato soup as starter - this was sent to us compliments of the chef and it was delicious. A mix between soup and tomato water with a beautiful curried taste twisting thru each sip 3) Aqua Panna (25ml aka small bottle) which was €2.20 - ouch thought this was expensive. 4) Vegatable Saffron Korma came which came with Yogurt (€18) - this was a wonderful medley of vegetables in a beautifully creamy sauce. Very tasty and my mum's fave dish. 5) Apple Brinjal (eggplant/ aubergine) masala (€17) - I've never heard of this combination before and it was so amazing! The tartness of the apple cut thru the earthiness of the eggplant. My fave dish of the night! 6) Vegetable Biryani (€17.50) - The taste of the vegetables used was very similar to the Saffron Korma. If we hadnt had the Korma, would have enjoyed the Biryani better. 7) 1 Tandoori Roti (€3.95) - pretty decent and well-cooked, but a bit on the small size. It's not a 5-stars, despite how good the food was, because of some issues with service. Firstly, we'd ordered a 2nd Tandoori Roti, which never came. Second issue was when instead of the Vegetable Biryani we had ordered, we actually served the Chicken Biryani instead, and we flagged the waiter to get this corrected. Thirdly, the Vegetables used in the Biryani were also massively similar in taste to the Korma, so that was a double up with the same taste, rather than the Veg Biryani having its own distinct flavours. I'd definitely came again however, cause the food flavours were fantastic and innovative. Among the best Indian food I've eaten and looking forward to trying other items on the menu. Yelp 35/ 2019
