REVIEWS
"In this stately building, you can not only eat well, but also stay on stand. We are spoiled with artful amuses and beautifully served dishes, including perfectly cooked cod, smoked eel and (smoked!) yoghurt. Then deliciously braised veal with a powerful Stroganoff gravy. For dessert, a fresh lemon tartlet with a crunchy burnt sugar coating and blood orange. The accompanying wines are chosen with care and explained with enthusiasm. In this restaurant, a great attention to detail is guaranteed. "
Gault&Millau 13,5/20
"Dinner at Posthoorn is akin to immersing yourself in years of history as this chic restaurant occupying two 17C buildings has been popular with gourmets since 1881. Here, chef Jeroen Bavelaar respects its history while showcasing his full creativity."
