If you have never come across Belgian and French cuisines, you should reserve a table and try the menu at this restaurant. Order nicely cooked kacamak, spaghetti and rillettes. Try good nougat, tarte tatin and crème brûlée. Delicious Irish coffee, champagne or chardonnay will make your meal even more delicious and you'll certainly come back. Great coffee is among the most often ordered drinks at De Huifkar.

It's easy to find this place due to the convenient location. A number of guests find the staff patient. If you want to experience professional service, you should go to this spot.

For a Michelin mentioned restaurant, it is underwhelming. The whole restaurant was full but there seems to be only one lady who could take order and attend to questions (the rest are food service crew). At some point, she just look overwhelmed. Food service was lengthy probably because of it. But she is trying her best. Scallop appetizer was really delicious -5/5. Lobster, cheese croquettes and oysters were okay 3/5. Main course seabass with risotto is pretty good. But could be better if the skin were crispy -3/5. Cod fish was rubbery and skin soggy - 2/5. Fish bouillabaisse is a lot more watery than expected and quite bland. Not something I would expect from bouillabaisse. seafood were fresh - 2/5. Lobster is ok -3/5. Dessert dame Blanche is good 4/5. Crepe Suzette is good -4/5. Creme Brûlée taste good but the torched sugar top is not crispy and the creme below wasn't set. Taste is ok - 2/5. Maybe our expectations were too high. But this is really not the best meal we have eaten - by far. Nonetheless, it's a very popular restaurant and it's full alot. So reservation is definitely needed. Ps: As a Michelin mentioned seafood restaurant, if the skin of a fish is served, I would expect it to be crispy. Otherwise it's just better not to serve it.

Beste,Dank u voor uw bezoek en uw review.U beweert dat wij een michelin ster hebben maar die hebben wij niet en die ambieren wij ook niet. Daardoor waren uw verwachtingen misschien wat hoog gegrepen. Ik ben de bazin en ik sta erop dat ik de bestellingen opneem en de mensen te woord sta om goede informatie te kunnen geven. Mijn personeel doet zijn uiterste best maar zijn jong en moeten nog leren zoals we het allemaal hebben moeten doen.
