The pizzas at this place are very good. We all had a different one and we all,liked them very much. They have a good choice and the size is reasonable. They don't do sharing, so you get have to order one each. The service is very friendly, so overall it is a nice experience to eat at de Ware Jacob!

We had dinner this week during our Schier stay at the restaurant. The food is good, although not great. But it is the atmosphere that is really worth the visit. This is the oldest hotel on the island, build in the 19th century and the place still breaths the atmosphere of that time. Waiters in suits, with table cloth, authentic "gelagkamer". As mentionned by previous contributors, it is also very cheap for what you get. Worth the visit!

Good selection of dishes with of course the tartare which cannot be missed on a brasserie menu. Chef knows how to balance taste and quantity. None of that horrible Dutch way of amputating and transforming of some characteristic classics. Good wines. And as it should be, the selection of dishes is relatively short. Though service is good and pleasant, it goes a bit too slow, which became somewhat uncomfortable at the end, especially with children.

We enjoyed the kibbeling and 'patat met', which was fried fresh for us and were served in very good portions. Seating is limited and on basic 'garden' chairs but the staff are friendly and there is a selection of packets of fish soups and sauces available to take home

Already at the entrance of Noderstraun we knew that this would be a pleasent ending of our trip to the Island. The waitor was very friendly and service minded and showed us to a nice table in the sunny outdoor area. When it was time for our main course, we were seated inside, which we specifically had wished for. The dinner was very good and the menue covered everyone's wishes. The only mistake was that 2 out of 5 people having fish wanted the dish without garlic. When the food arrived at our table, 5 out of 5 fish dishes missed out on garlic. of course, a minor mistake. All in all, this place is a perfect ending on a nice trip to the Schiermonnikoog.

Came here in a weekend late June. Very slow service, poor food, average at best. Prices are fairly high, too. Go someplace else.

This restaurant is in the dunes on the beach, a lovely location. It has indoor and outdoor space. Itâs definitely on the casual side, as a beach restaurant, but the food is very good and the service is friendly and efficient. Itâs not a quiet or romantic place, with lots of family groups and children running around, but for a casual, beach place, it has excellent seafood and is well worth a visit. The Wadden salad was delicious, as were the mussels. Iâd call in advance to check the hours, because they change weekly depending on the weather and the number of tourists around.

De naam Ambrosijn betekent niet alleen ânectar voor de godenâ, maar is tevens afgeleid van de naam van de âwildeâ appeltjes van Schiermonnikoog. Die appeltjes groeien overal langs de fiets- en wandelpaden van het eiland, ontstaan uit de vele klokhuizen di

At first glance, Ambrosijn would seem to live up to its presentation as the apple of a gastronome's eye. Artfully situated on the tree-lined "long street" that connects the lively town center of Schiermonnikoog with the idyllic, historic residential area and the wind-blown bird-and-nature reserve on the eastern end, Ambrosijn seems to condense all that is wonderful about Schiermonnikoog into a quaint bungalow of a restaurant. Unfortunately--as Ambrosijn must learn if it seeks to fulfill its admittedly great promise--there is a little more even to appearance than looks, postures, and aspirations. There can be no doubt that Ambrosijn is at least headed in the right direction. Its menu, for example, goes beyond those found at most upper-end resort restaurants insofar as it offers not only a great many imaginative dishes but also attempts to upgrade its treatment of vegetables and vegetarian cuisine and to focus on local and seasonal ingredients. All of that is a tall order--indeed, is perhaps too much of an order--for a small fine-dining establishment on a remote island resort. Nevertheless, kudos are due to the chef and proprietor for setting high and laudable goals. The trouble arises from what appears to be a grievous shortage of staff. During our visit, only one waiter worked the entire dining room, which, at the time, held twenty or more guests. Given the level of explanation required for several of the dishes and given the detailed service required to justify Ambrosijn's substantial prices, several more dining room personnel are needed. Most of our evening was spent listening to the same waiter repeat the same script to diners at every table and then wondering how the poor fellow was ever going to catch up with his assignments at other tables. Although this all had some amusement value--the scene was reminiscent of an episode from "Fawlty Towers"--the result was an excruciating wait for everything, whether the arrival of the next course or even the delivery of the menu. The Ambrosijn staff seems to have developed a curious strategy of palliating the agonies of waiting: the delivery of multiple amuse-gueules as a means of spacing out courses and service actions. Two such amuse-gueules and no less than fifty minutes passed before the arrival of the menu (the strategy proved less successful at the neighboring table, where anguished diners finally asked when in the world the menu might arrive). The cuisine at Ambrosijn is, for the most part, delicious. Our main course, a local fish served atop a bed of vegetables highlighted by red and yellow beet jus, was nothing short of delectable and was also visually spectacular. An avocado, citrus, and sunflower seed appetizer, although tasty, was less successful owing to miserly portion size and difiiculty in ladling the sauce, which had adhered to the plate. The aforementioned amuse-gueules were somewhat uneven. The first, a mix of olives, homemade crisps, and a corn soup, displayed variety but lacked flavor and ethnic identity. The second, a pair of quail eggs accompanied by a squid ink emulsion or aioli, tickled the eye and was good enough on the palate. Unfortunately, the dinner came to a somewhat awkward conclusion when the overworked waiter announced that the one dessert on the menu (other than a selection of cheeses) had was no longer available. For a restaurant at this level to offer only one dessert and then run out of it is a serious fault. Ambrosijn has set up a sweet little courtyard with an affiliated ice cream stand that delivers a superb cup or cone. The interior of the Ambrosijn restaurant is, shall we say, "nice enough," but looks rather too much like whatever it had been before. The decorative concept remains somewhat incomplete. It would be wonderful indeed if Ambrosijn could succeed. It seems as if the proprietors and chefs want to achieve something and want to go beyond the minimum required at a beach vacation spot. But it will take a little more than aspirations, hopes, prayers, and a single waiter to get to that destination.

There is nothing really to it. A great view, ideal if you are early for the boat to Schiermonnikoog and hungry. They do know how to make the traditional fish dishes and they serve oysters. Staff is young and perhaps somewhat inexperienced bit very friendly. Kitchen takes its time.
