Diner Thuis started some sixty years ago as a modest local eatery, but has since evolved into a local legend. Its location in the swanky Benoordenhout district means it regularly hosts bigwigs and dignitaries, and has even been visited by members of the royal family. The food is centered on a fine dining-style menu, but occasional hometyle favorites do grace the menu. Regardless of whether the dishes are hearty or high class, the prices are not to be sneezed at. The wine list is also estimable and the service and decor invite a return trip even at the price.
Not deviating from its main focus, the French cuisine, La Vieux Jean has wonderfully accommodated the Dutch hues in some parts of the menu. The food is creatively prepared with mild and delicate flavors that give pure delight to the taste buds. The delicious French wine list leaves nothing to be desired for! A reservation is highly recommended since it's a popular restaurant. They also have provide rental space for a business lunch or a small party. Be it a romantic dinner, a small gathering of friends, some family time or a business lunch, La Vieux Jean offers a pleasant dining experience in a peaceful and intimate atmosphere.
