I used to have a very good experience with this restaurant, but I was quite disappointed during our last visit (with the whole family). Service was below expectations, not too friendly, while prices were relatively high .... Maybe we were there on a bad day ........

I was visiting friends in the area and after a local tour I was invited to have dinner here. I enjoyed every course of the set menu. Before the starter we were given some guacamole with tortilla chips. Quite an unexpected surprise for me coming from the USA. The starter was a plate of tuna carpaccio with a composed salad atop. Black olives, honeydew melon, salad greens and pomegranate seeds were the most memorable ingredients. The soup was a delicious traditional fish soup. Roast lamb with an assortment of fresh vegetables was the main course that night. There were several choices for dessert, the two we had were both very good. It was a charming environment with a attentive, but not overwhelming wait staff. I have to say it was one of my top ten dining experiences of my life.

I really love it. I have been there couple of times and every time lived the food and service. My favourite now. I will surely go more often. They have good vegetarian choices as well.

Greek Restaurant Paros

Reviewed By caribbeanbusinessman

Great restaurant. Food was fresh, staff pleasant and experience really good. But we ordered the fixed meal for two, figuring we couldn't be bothered to choose. So we should have ordered the fixed meal for two and shared with the couple on the other table. Portions are very big, good value and I wish I'd had just a starter. You won't be disappointed but trust me.. just order a starter or two and then see if you want more.

To go short: this is a good Italian resto. Good menucard. You can pick one from a good range of starters and main courses. Service is friendly and fast. Location at outskirts of town close to interstate A2. Parking in front of resto. All in all a 4-star score for us.

Tiffany's is a well known place, run by the same couple for 34 years. They serve only one menu, which is an excellent decision. Fresh ingredients and well balanced price-quality. Wetter permitting you can sit outside on the market place. Friendly lady of the house. Can firmly recommend.

Hof van Herstal

Reviewed By Venneper

This classy restaurant led by the ever-present master chef Martin Bruggeman is a household name in this southern part of the Netherlands.The entrée (salad with ham) was quite simple. Not bad, but far from surprising. On the other hand, the main dish of red perch with spinach was absolutely superb: as fresh as a rose and heavenly delicious. The accompanying wine, a pinot noir, as advised by the chef was a perfect match too.The service and the price were both friendly; we paid around 90 Euro for this treat.Well worth another visit.

Restaurant Da Vinci

Reviewed By scooby1305

Let’s start with the good.The owners and staff are very welcoming, we felt sincere “warmth” in our interactions with them and, as a result, quickly felt at ease here. Staff at other top gourmet temples can, at times, come across as stuffy and aloof, so all the more positive that this house manages the “relationship” part well. We also felt that the design and décor of the restaurant is well-done, and we experienced the overall service as highly attentive and helpful without ever seeming “too” present.Our culinary journey began in the pre-dinner reception area where we enjoyed some amuse-bouche. This was accompanied by our aperitif of choice that evening, a red Pineau des Charentes. That fortified wine was hands-down the best of its type we have discovered over the last decades, a truly remarkable delight. In retrospect we do think the amuse-bouche would have gone better with a good double or triple beer of Belgian origin.“The wife” and I then transitioned to the main seating area on the lower-level of the building and began to take-in the 6-couse variant of Margo’s Master Menu (Margo’s Meesterlijk Menu) with the wine selection of the house. Each of those 6-courses was cooked and presented well and everything was at the level we would expect as “standard” from such a highly-ranked establishment.BUT, while we already had a few “?” regarding the amuse-bouche composition, our impression of culinary improvement areas quickly rose from here.The name “Da Vinci” leads one to think that the cuisine here is Italian inspired. In our view, it would take a thorough stretch of the imagination to be that. Instead, we were quite confused by the end of the meal as to what the culinary identity of this restaurant is.Starting with the amuse-bouche and throughout other courses, there is a hodgepodge of various influences. While we certainly appreciate contemporary experimentation, we felt that the flavors and mouth-feel too often simply did not “mesh”. For example, the amuse-bouche were a mix of small dishes consisting of roasted sunflower seeds, marinated olives, a Krupuk / Kroepoek with some type of flavored cream clots sprinkled here and there, sweet & sour cauliflower wrapped in filo pastry etc. etc.. This just did not come together.The same also applies to several of the 6 courses. Often the actual center-piece of a course was surrounded by a large variety of bobbles, droplets, wafers, globs and other bits and pieces of different tastes and textures. In addition, we also felt that at least 2 of the courses had way too much sauce on the plate. The sauces tended to be quite powerful in taste and, in combination with the aforementioned high variety of other elements, drowned-out the actual center-piece both visually and, more importantly, taste-wise. With several dishes, our palates had real difficulty discerning and enjoying the “main attraction”, which often was also of too small a portion-size. We clearly had higher expectations of Margo’s Master Menu, and even today, just 1 day later, we really need to think hard to identify something memorable. It is a bit sad to say that what we do readily remember are 2 drink items that are not of the restaurant’s making, the Pineau mentioned earlier and an Italian Primitivo. There were numerous, added smaller points, which deterred from the experience. The bread selection and quality was OK, but not nearly on par with what we have experienced elsewhere. Furthermore, the breads we enjoyed the most were not topped-up during the meal. We also felt that the wine pairing for the starter served prior to the 1st course did not at all go with that dish. If I recall correctly, this was some type of white “Burgunder” from Austria. That wine did, however, go well with the 1st course, and the restaurant would do well to serve it accordingly. Lastly, we felt that the marshmallows, which the restaurant markets separately “to order” online or “to-go”, were not even close to the taste & texture joy of the marshmallows we have sampled from other houses. A final “niggle” is that Da Vinci would do well to have the English-language texts used on its website and elsewhere finalized by an English native-speaker. We currently live in Belgium, about a good hour’s drive from Da Vinci. Frankly, driving for that duration in any direction from our abode we are spoilt for choice and have just so many great Michelin-starred or simply delightful restaurants available to us in Belgium and Holland alone…and I am not even including the immediate border regions of Germany or France yet in that. As we have had the privilege of discovering many great eateries there and across the globe, our net conclusion is that Da Vinci is certainly good, at 1-star level, but not on par with truly great 2-star or higher establishments we have dined at. In short, this was very much a case for us of “been there, eaten that (before), gotten the napkin”, and we are left with no compelling reasons to plan a second visit anytime soon.

Olympia

Reviewed By PetervRwk

Although the fresh interior was promising, the new menu is very different.I think they aim for a less traditional Greek menu, more Mezedes (Tapas-like) approach.I expect they will attract a different group of people with that. Not sure if that's us...Thanks for your review...We are trying to overcome the standart "Greek" kitchen that is presented in Europe, and bring in more and more traditional Greek food, what we serve as Meze, what is more commen in Greece than meat and fries...I hope we will welcome you back, and impress you with our new setup..Greetings
