Very upsetting visit to this, it has to be said, beautiful location. The staff were ultra disinterested. I had to physically go up to the bored looking waitress and ask if we could order. I ordered a pancake with wholemeal flour and my boyfriend hadn't known you could get different varieties (gluten free, wholemeal etc). This is only stated on the children's menu. At this point the waitress might have told us which different types were available but no, she just looked bored whilst I read aloud from the children's menu. We heard our pancakes being ready and placed for the waitress to take but she had gone off somewhere to what looked like the toilet. Another colleague was in front of our pancakes and when it materialised that the waitress was not coming he brought us our pancakes which had stood there for 5 minutes. Naturally they were cold. furthermore I had requested no garlic sauce but the waitress, in all her disinterested glory, had not offered an alternative so I was served a load of dry salad and what looked like burnt chicken. Cold. I walked to the kitchen myself and gave it back then did my boyfriend as his was also cold. Then we just left. This was the worse service I have ever had in The Netherlands which is anyway not known for its service culture but this was shockingly bad. Also, the prices are outrageous. My pancake would have cost me 13.95. Do NOT go here.

Every bite gave a new sensation. A must try/eat in Zeist. Be sure to make your reservation well in advance, it's overbooked
3. Restaurant Dell'Italia
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 35 reviews
Authentic Italian restaurant with open accessible kitchen in the center of the restaurant. All your food is freshly being prepared in front of you. Friendly atmosphere, cosy, original Italian food. Children and pet-friendly. Large choice of dishes. Our dishes can be customized to your wishes! Also for lunch and take-away. Seasonal specialities as well.

After looking hard in downtown Zeist, we found Restaurant Dell' Italia—a restaurant that is combined with a cooking school…that explains the kitchen out front and in the open. Food was freshly prepared for your eyes to see. Cool.
Highly recommend based on food quality, friendly service, and good value.
Limited English of server and chef was not a problem with one English menu available to share.
We enjoyed:
* Tortellini with shaved Parma Ham
* Fettuccine with Shrimp
* Seafood Pasta
* Peroni Beers, owned by SABMiller, went well with Italian Food
Pizza also offered.
Would most definitely return
Small Gripe: No draught brewskies.

Reviewed By Geert B - Zeist, The Netherlands
It was a warm evening that took us to the large Terrace of the Hermitage. The personnel received us cheerfully and for the rest of the dinner was very dedicated and helpfull. We started with six excellent oysters (creuses) and followed with a tournedos and canette respectively. I can only the latter one: excellent. The accompanying french fries were well done. The Hermitage is not a Michelin-star restaurant although it is mentioned in the guide. It does however offer very good dishes in a relaxing atmosphere for a reasonable price and for that reason is my preferred restaurant in Zeist
5. Kepass

Reviewed By BillCranford - Atlanta, Georgia
This cozy Dutch restaurant sets the standard for American style bar b cue. No other place in Europe can provide that original flavor and tenderness. There are many specialty rib restaurants in the USA that cannot compete with Kepass. The prices are reasonable, the service fast and friendly and the business seems to be very well managed. Each time I am in Holland I make it my priority to take whomever I'm traveling with to eat there. It is always an unforgettable experience. I encourage everyone to try it if you have the opportunity, you will not be sorry.
6. Restaurant Kerckebosch

In our cozy restaurant, overlooking the castle garden, we serve you Trends & Classics. With our Trends, we like to take you on an adventurous journey full of innovative and surprising flavors. Our Classics brings you back like coming home with trusted and recognizable dishes. Taste, share and combine these dishes with a glass of wine and nice stories. There are no rules, everything is possible. These dishes are served in smaller portions.
Reviewed By G6662013 - Utrecht, The Netherlands
As we have been here a long time ago and apparently much had changed during those years (new owners, new kitchen) we wanted to see how the Kerckebosch lunch was. At first we checked their website as one can consult the menu of the month and download it. A bit surprising that it was a few months old, but alas. The lunch was really fantastic. We very much appreciated the fact that at no additional cost we could taste two different white wines before ordering as we could not make up our minds. It had to combine well with a fish and lobster combination. Service was very good and everything was up to our expectations.

Good pizzas, albeit sometimes very salty. Affordable prices, nice family restaurant. Nothing happening in the neigborhood at night. Plenty of parking around the corner. Be patient after ordering, that helps...

Reviewed By Moramare - Amstelveen, The Netherlands
Wow, this restaurant - from the inside - truly gives you the impression of being in Indonesia! Everything breaths the tropics.
They offer 2 completly different dining options; the Chef's menu (quality food with an Indonesian touch) or the Indonesian rijsttafel that you would expect from an Indonesian restaurant. We went for the Rijsttafel Bandung; perfect food but way too much. That was a pity. This was also due to the fact that the starter was a full meal on its own.
The service was good and welcoming when we arrived, but lacking when we wanted to pay. Small point to improve.
Others mentioned it as well; the location is really NOT where you would expect the restaurant to be; in the middle of an ugli residential area.
Should you be staying in or around Zeist; go and check this place out yourself!!

We came in without reservation, and were seated immediately by the hotel reception lady that took us into the restaurant. Lovely, quiet ambiance, fast, professional and kind service from all personnel. We had two types of steak - both grilled to perfection and high quality of meat. I asked for and got a quick refill of my side dish. Just over 50 euros per couple is, in my book, good value for such a delicious meal. Recommended !

Central location with nice Terrace. Simple but solid dishes, but nothing fancy. Efficient and friendly service. Gambas could have had a bit more bite and Tuna steak was a little overcooked. Generous portions. House malbec a bit on the bland side.
