De Gist — Restaurant in Delft

-Staff aren't available to order or answer questions (qr code ordering is mandatory) -the hollandaise sauce tastes like liquid butter (probably made from a powder mix) -there's no ham on the benedict only two little pieces of spek -the benedict is served on overly large pieces of bread which are wrong the consitency for a benedict -the benedict is served with not enough sauce at all for the amount of bread which was given -the benedict is served on a massive bed of rocket, instead of a bit of dill on top? -for the price of their garbage benedict you can get a nice steak in Brussels

Basically the benedict is made with a few things that seem to be roughtly the correct colors, but your 12 year old can do a better job at home following a tiktok tutorial.

So the waiting staff don't wait on you, the chefs aren't chefs, the meals aren't meals, and the prices are high.

5 stars? Maybe if you were born without taste buds

Adding extra item to the bill and increase the prices of the single item with respect to what is listed on the menu is a consolidated practice, especially for large groups or tipsy customers. Friday night, after some drinks with friends at De Gist, I asked for the bill. Having received a quite expensive total, I noticed there were extra cocktails included (i.e. drinks never consumed at our table). I asked for the receive to be corrected and the extra items were removed however, after leaving De Gist, I had a second glance at the prices more in details and found out that the Dutch Negroni was 9.10 instead of the 8.10 appearing on the menu. Talking about this experience with friends it turned out it was not the first time somebody was filed extra items in the receive although I am probablyt the first noticing the mismatching with the menu prices. ALWAYS CHECK ITEMS AND...

You order your drinks and food through your phone and the staff brings it to your table. The last 2 times when I was at De Gist, they hardly said anything or made any eye contact when serving our drinks. I know that not all the stuff speaks Dutch, but they can at least say something in English or learn some phrases that they use daily with guests. The food is really tasty, but a little bit expensive and small portions. For example: I do love the pulpo, but it's just a single little tantacle. That's even not enough for a starter/snack size. That portion should be bigger for that price. And I know that everything is more expensive now, but almost 10 euro for just one piece is too much. Lots of good beers to choose from. In spring/summer you can sit quite long in the sun on the terrace. For me the evenings are more fun than...
