Revisited this place during the Christmas holidays in 2023. This time we sat at the chefs table and we loved the experience! Again, beautiful dishes with a lot of attention to details and flavors. Wines are paired perfectly.
The ambiance and interior design of this restaurant is really lovely. It's good that there are plans to equip the large windows with blinds because it got really hot inside by evening because of the sunny weather all day. They have (each month) a fixed menu with a starter, main, dessert and 4 in-betweens, and you can opt for a course meal serving 3 to 7 courses. We selected the 5 course option including paired regular wines with an exclusive wine for the main course. Prior to the course meal we enjoyed a nice glass of bubbly wine and some tasty oysters. The amuse-bouche was very nice too. The wine and food pairing was good although personally we thought the paired wine for the dessert could have been sweeter to match the sweetness of the dessert (Riesling with peaches/almond). Overall, we were pleasantly surprised by the high quality level maintained by the restaurant. It's evident when looking at the food presentation, garnishes and combination of flavors. The staff was very friendly and both knowledgeable and passionate about the food and paired wines. They are very attentive to the guests' needs and their attention to detail doesn't go unnoticed as the evening passed. All in all we had a great experience and suffice to say that we are glad to have a place where you can enjoy a high level of fine dining experience without having to travel to the city center. We look forward...
Read moreSince October last year, the Netherlands has gained a top restaurant, in fact, Gault-Millau has already found them: chef Glenn and host/sommelier Wim and their excellent team at #roemer-utrecht. Delicious 5- to 8-course menu, nice portions, delicious flavors, a different menu every month. Allergies are taken into account and the wines are top notch. The ambiance is chic-modern, lots of glass and shine, and the table layout has been well thought out. Many tables overlook the open kitchen, where you can watch the chefs at work. For ladies with high heels, the choice for the high chairs and tables is a little less suitable, but the chairs are comfortable. Nice to find such a neat restaurant in Leidsche Rijn, close to bus, train and parking garage, and cinema. All staff are friendly and know what they are talking about. Delicious food, at acceptable prices considering the level of cuisine. Open from 12 noon, also for lunch and wine and bites, closed Tuesday...
Read moreWe (a group of 4) enjoyed an incredible lunch at wonderful Roemer. Every dish brought us surprise and delight. Every glass of wine or tea only added to this. It is incredible to see knowledge and passion come together in such a lovely restaurant with such friendly and attentive staff.
We drove from Laren to Utrecht and found ample parking spots very close to the restaurant. This is going to be a very frequent journey. I'd be proud to introduce close business relationships and our best friends to the team, food, wine, and experience at...
