Restaurant Basiliek — Restaurant in Harderwijk

I really don’t know were I should start. My mother and I had an wonderful evening. It begins with the very nice young man who welcomed us at the front door and brought us to our table. I think we’ve got the best table at the restaurant, right near the kitchen. I’m a chef by myself and it was very interesting to have a little look into the kitchen and watch these young chefs who cooks with joy and passion our dishes. We recognized that every single member of the stuff was so friendly and you could feel the passion for what they are doing. And we were very impressed by the fact that the owner by herself worked as a part of her stuff, by serving dishes, drinks or takes the orders. She and her team was an perfectly well-rehearsed team. We’ve had a four course menu and every single course was a little explosion of different tastes. You can feel the love and the passion behind every dish. My mother told me later that this restaurant is know one of her favorite in years. (Since 4 years we go every year on vacation and try Michelin star restaurants in different cities / countries) I could write much more but you all have to try it by yourself. So all I can say is THANK YOU for one of our best dinner nights in years. We would love to come back and hopefully we have the pleasure to meet the head chef in person. (We were there...

We booked a table for the 3rd of August 2025 and when we reached the location the restaurant was closed!

We tried to call them 4 times before arriving there as their staff tried to reach out to us at 8am on Sunday (come on, it's Sunday, drop an SMS if there is an issue or whatever may be the reason)

Additionally, we have received the reservation confirmation via email and they have never canceled it, so we assumed all was good as per confirmation receipt.

This is pretty ridiculous as we traveled around 1h for this special...

Enjoyed this very much, the place is extraordinary and the building is very historical. Decor is very peaceful and vibes are relaxed. The food is exceptional, as you dive into new forms of combinations, textures and tastes. The Chef is present and will gladly talk to you. Overall it is a good experience. One small inconvenience, and it does not necessarily involve only this restaurant but all the Michelin restaurants I visited, is the small portions that can be some times...
