Ristorante Da nina — Restaurant in Dordrecht

My friends and I were in this restaurant last night. We ordered Mista Bruschetta as starter. At first glance, the garnish was not pretty at all and when we took our first bite of the pesto bruschetta, I can only say it was awful. One of my friends felt sick and I couldn't continue eating pesto. They also brought bread and butter, the bread was not fresh at all and the butter did not taste anything special. I am a big fan of Italian food, but I had never tried these flavors before. My friend told the waiter that the pesto didn't look fresh and she said it in the most polite way. After 5 minutes, the waitress with blonde hair (maybe she is the owner) came to our table with an aggressive expression and threw the pesto bowl to us and said in an angry tone that “this pesto is fresh and we make it every two days. You should not say that this is not fresh, I do not like this”. We tried to talk to her politely and friendly, but she was just angry and loudly saying that the pesto is fresh and did not listen to us at all. While the supermarket pesto is better than the pesto served in this Italian restaurant. We did not continue the conversation with her and she angrily said that your main dish will not come and leave the restaurant and do not pay. With this behavior, she completely ruined our beautiful evening. In my opinion, this lady who seems to be the owner of the restaurant should take a course like “ how to behave with customers?”. This was the first time that someone treated me like this in a restaurant and I was completely shocked. All the tables were looking at us and it was not pleasant at all. If you like Italian food, do not go to this restaurant at all, they do not offer you high quality and fresh food at all, and the behavior of the staff should definitely change. The restaurant did not smell like Italian food at all. Also, when I got home I brought up all the food and it showed that the food was not fresh. But, their disrespectful behavior was the worst point of this restaurant. I always write reviews on Google and I am honest in writing them. 100% I do not recommend anyone to go to this restaurant. They ruins our evening with their food and also their rude behavior. One star is too much for this kind of restaurant, I need to give them at least one star, because I had to...

We used to live in the Hague and none of the restaurants there come close to Da Nina in terms of flavours and ambiance. In our opinion the best Italian restaurant there is. Prosciutto crudo was air dried and not additionally spiced (con pepe nero style), farfalle alla tartufata were exploding with truffles, carbonara was prepared with guanciale and you could tell. To top it all off, tiramisu used only mascarpone withot any heavy cream.

Top notch food with top notch personnnel.

This will for sure become our frequent...
