You know, there is an old English saying, "the devil is in the details"....This unfortunately is the case with Lucas Rive. There is a lot of "good" at this restaurant, but unfortunately Mr Devil is making his presence known, and I think some effort needs to be taken to ensure that Lucas Rive does not follow the slippery slope downwards and loose standards. I will start with the negatives first:- Service is terribly slow. The restaurant was not full, and yet there were long waits at every stage ... long wait for waiter to take order, long wait for amuse Bouche, long wait for main meal, long wait for the bill.- Staff not attentive. We spilt a glass of water on our table, we had to clean it up ourselves with our napkins because no waiter came to help despite a large puddle of water visible on the table and restaurant floor.- Too much "selling" of drinks by staff. The way the staff sell the water is particularly shameful. One bottle of water at this restaurant does not cover three glasses, the staff adopt an unacceptable pouring style where they fill two glasses full and the third glass with the remaining water which is only a third of a glsss. Why not at least make an efffort to pour evenly ? But really the water bottles should be more generous in size !- USA beef on the menu ! WHY ???? There is so much amazing European beef, why do you have to import USA beef which is stuffed full of chemicals ?- Pastry section needs improving. The desert concepts are good, but the flavours do not come through in the execution.Now, on the positive side:- Ingredients are of high quality and cooked well. The quality of the fish cooking is particularly excellent and noteworthy.- Sauces are of high quality, well executed and flavoursome- The flavour combinations are innovative and well executed- Plating is excellent, all dishes well presented and look appealing.Overall a good restaurant, but for the prices charged the negatives I highlighted above are really unacceptable.I struggled to decide on a star rating for this restaurant. Ultimately i decided on "average" because as good as the positive elements were, then negative elements really detract from the experience and, as mentioned above, are unacceptable for an establishment of this type and especially given the prices charged !!

We had dinner here on the recommendation of a local. The restaurant is well managed, both professional and friendly. The interior is dark but not gloomy. We always opt for fish when in Holland and here had a delicious dorade at a reasonable price.

What an absolutely disgusting evening spent in this establishment. Arrived at 5pm and didn't get served for starters until 6pm. Then waited another hour for our main course. Asked two separate members of staff what was happening with our mains, neither of them came back to us to report. Then when we had finally had enough, my grandma asked to pay for what we'd eaten and said we were leaving, the obnoxious owner was exceptionally disrespectful to her and insisted she pay for the entire order. Shouted at her in front of other diners and told her not to bother coming back. My family have frequented this restaurant quite often and myself and my daughters also visit whilst we are over from the U.K. But never again. We will never ever eat here again. None of the staff had a clue what was going on tonight and the manager is the most obnoxious and disrespectful man I have ever met. I registered my disgust with him and he didn't even seem bothered. Not one apology. One member of staff commented "it's not usually this bad". A fine endorsement I'm sure. My grandma and grandad are regular customers and to be treated the way she was has left her feeling very upset. There is no way we will ever be going back. The food wasn't even of the usual "average" standard. On the whole just a terrible evening made worse.
