Eten & Zo — Restaurant in Zoetermeer

Pros: Easy to find, big parking place. Interior design feels quite relax and comfort, easy access from dining area to food area. 2 free alcohol-drink per person, softdrink and coffee and tea totally free. Big selection of beef steaks from Ireland, Argentine, America. Kangaroo steak is extraordinary delicious. Ireland black Angus beef steak is very soft and juicy, my favorite. Lamb steak is just perfect qua proportion between fat and meet, also cooked very nicely, leading to be very tender and juicy. Also various fish ("sliptong" and "haai") are cooked very well, juicy inside and crisp outside. Pizza is prepared and baked as in a Pizza-specific restaurant. Huge selection of salads and deserts, 8 types of ice cream are available, and taste are better than most of all you can eat we've tried before. Sushi and sashimi are very fresh (feels like more fresh than most of other all-you-can-eat we've had elsewhere) and delicious.

Cons: Interior design is traditional and focused on relaxing and comfort, but not really cool or modern. When it is busy, the speed of taking away the empty dishes on the table is a little bit slow, resulting in the fact that you've gotta stack them up which can be dangerous. The path in the food area can be crowded and hard to pass when it is busy,...

Way too expensive. They may have a lot of food but they don't have everything. For example, no ranch dressing, no burritos or bell beefers, no rolls or biscuits, no sausage or bacon. Why not serve a big American breakfast? Or any breakfast? No pepper jack cheese, no cheddar cheese. I tell you, if you want Dutch food, you can go anywhere 😂 😂 😂 in the Netherlands. I have no idea why they even serve it. Oh, why do they not have tbone steak, rotisserie chicken, Canadian ham, a make your own pizza bar? No stevia at the tea /coffee bar, no V-8 juice, no pineapple juice. Too ordinary if you ask me. They should be different and funky from the other places for what they charge. If someone wants Dutch food, just throw thier food in a deep fryer, give them a loaf of white bread and tons of sugar with a bottle of wine, they are good to go. There are us who hates all that and want more /real food, not breaded and deep fried, no white bread...

This place uses the well known all-you-can-eat world with dozens of different dishes. Behind each category stands a specialist cook of that type, though I'm not sure why, since everything tastes quite mediocre in general.

Like, there's no point having 3 specialist sushi chefs stand behind the plates of sushi you can grab from, if it's gonna taste slightly better than supermarket sushi.

The same can be said for the large majority of the categories; The wok, the grill, the fried food and even the ice cream was mediocre at best. When your kangaroo steak, calamares and lambchop are tougher than a flat tire, it makes me question the ability of the specialist chefs.

Despite all the negativity I had a great time and the decoration...
