The 10 Best Restaurants In Rotterdam, The Netherlands
Rotterdam is a historical sea-faring city and home to some of the best restaurants in The Netherlands. Here we list some of our favorites.
1. Restaurant de Jong
Restaurant, European
In an unexpectedly spartan environment, under the Rotterdam train line (handy for transport), is among the most beautifully decorated restaurants in the city. Founded by young restaurateur Jim de Jong, a proud supporter of the Slow Food Movement, De Jong is committed to the use of the most ethically cultivated ingredients around, with an abundance of its herbs and vegetables grown on site in the restaurant’s own private garden. Serving a surprise prix fixe menu, at the discretion of the chef, the meal is guaranteed to be consistently delicious and unexpected.

9. De Harmonie
De Harmonie
With an outdoor dining option in their enchanting par terre, surrounded by flowers and trees for a truly private, intimate experience, De Harmonie is a gem for enthusiasts of al fresco dining. A minimalist interior is offset by striking examples of contemporary art, and the enchanting views of the Rotterdam canal add a touch of romance to the experience. Their menu features numerous vegetarian options in addition to beef and seafood, sweetbreads, cheeses, and fine wines.

10. Ter Marsch & Co

Famous for their incredible range of steak and hamburgers, and recipient of an award for the best burger in Holland (their ‘Burgeresse,’ on brioche bread), Ter Marsch & Co have quickly garnered an international reputation for consistent high quality, great service, and a fine-dining approach to the traditional American Hamburger. With a comfortable, modish interior, outdoor and bar seating, and fine views of the Rotterdam canal, Ter Marsch is the destination of choice for Rotterdam’s greatest burger.
