Restaurant is located in a street full of pubs. We had a ribeye and a tournedos. We ordered it both rare. It was served rare with a jacked potatoe and chips. And.....a very big cook knife which was amazingly sharp. The taste was wonderful. A a dessert we wanted a coffee and just a scope of ice... Was not on the menu but it was no problem to serve it. Wonderful restaurant. Should have 6 stars.

The best place to eat fish and sea food in all Netherlands. After 4 years in The Netherlands finally I found the best restaurant. Friendly staff, perfect location and amazing atmosphere. We were for lunch and dinner and both are really good options. The oysters and the catch of the day are gorgeous. It's not cheap but for Dutch prices isn't expensive. We will come back for sureDear Diana Carolina B,Wow, what a great review!Thank you so much for your lovely compliments, we are happy to read that youâve enjoyed your 2(!) visits so much. Our oysters are always a good choice, since they come freshly out of the homarium that is placed in the restaurant. Thank you and we would love to welcome you back next time!Team ât Pakhuus

Delicious food, often made from local products like a variety of Northsea fish, shells, crab and of course Texel lamb. Jef is really a mastercook, creating stunning yet harmonious flavours. I loved the sweet Northsea crab with a mild light sour yoghurt style sauce. Fantastic langoustine, short grilled with a strong aromatic 'Dashi' sauce. Nice detail are the matching breads by each dish. Very thoughtful wine arrangement, great hospitality by Nadine and her crew. Can't believe this is only one star. Trip worthy..

Dined in this restaurant twice in one week. I think that says enough. Pure quality food together with a very motivated staff that gave us a good service. I had lamb (perfect), my wife had fish (Dorade, excellent). This restaurant deserves the highest qualification. If I have the give one improvement advice: be more generous with vegetables.

Somewhat hidden in the backstreets of Den Burg on the island Texel you'll find this little hidden gem. Freshly made food, fantastic friendly personnel, a cosy interior. Sit down, order a tea or glass of wine and enjoy! Well recommended. Thx so much for these friendly words. After a winter closing of almost 2 months, it feels so good to meet our ''friends'' again. Spread the word and follow us on Instagram. Most kind regards from #restaurantstraatjetexel Anita and Niek

I tried the lamb burger with garlic sauce in this restaurant. So delicious! Served with a salad and very tasty French fries. Very recommended! Staff was very friendly. This restaurant sells its own cookbook + a variety of local products. Too bad we weren't long enough in De Cocksdorp to have dinner there as their menu card looks delicious.

Whilst holidaying on Texel, we celebrated our wedding anniversary with our two boys (aged 9 and 13) by introducing them to fine din8ng in Kook Atelier. They were a little nervous beforehand, partly at the thought of experimenting with food and partly because we don't speak Dutch. As we entered the restaurant, any fears were quickly dispelled as our waitress greeted us in excellent English and went out of her way to make us all feel at home. We went for a six course 'surprise' menu, with added amuse bouches. We were not disappointed; every course was made from fresh, local produce and was presented with beauty, style and in one course humour (a delicious seafood dish served in a sardine tin!)The taste combinations were exquisite, with parsley sorbet, served with strawberries in multiple forms, a real surprise hit! The service was also exceptional, the waitress and chef going out of their way to ensure we all got the most out of our meal. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who enjoys a truly fine dining experience. Thank you. Thank you so much for this wonderfull review, hope to see you again!

1. Van Het Wad
Kleinschalig visrestaurant: in intieme huiskamersetting dineren. Ons menu bestaat voornamelijk uit vis maar ook een aantal lokale vlees- en vega-gerechten. We maken graag gebruik van eerlijke en streekgebonden producten. Onze gerechten zijn puur van smaak
Reviewed By Floor v
The service and atmospherewere both quite good, but the food was absolutely outstanding. The combinations aren't spectacular -there's nothing new about texel gray shrimp with a cocktailsauce- but this was simply delicious. The fish were fresh, the sauces great and most importantly: everything was in balance. Even the side dishes were great, especially the rhubarb really stood out. All combined it was a really delicate, delicious meal.
