VANE Restaurant - Vestdijk 5

Great view, both from the restaurant and sky bar. The food is very good, although the waiters still had to get used to the new menu. The cheese platter could be a lot better with a different sequence. Wine pairing was excellent.

Amazing view, great food, really good wine and knowledgeable and friendly staff. The oenologist was particularly nice and really helpful, the wine choice was perfect to go with the amazing food. I loved the experience! They were super nice and made a 4 course meal all vegan and absolutely delicious. Highly recommended.

Really quiet, was expecting it to be full on a Sunday-afternoon. Employee told me it varies. So we had a free pick of all spots to sit down. Nice (local) beers. Nice view.

We only visited the skybar but all the staff were super friendly and helpful, great service with quick ordering and helpful when choosing drinks. Fairly priced given it is part of a hotel. Nice music, great atmosphere. The one negative is that the place is tiny, 20 people fill it but you can't have everything ?

Sky bar was one of worst experiences. Our group came for drinks and some bites. We booked table 3 weeks before! First we were told that we can sit in one place then barmen asked us to move next to the toilet as this table will be used for another larger group (well fine, sometimes it happens and it does makes sense). We were seated and eventually bigger group was same size as ours, we just didn’t got that table because of some magical reason (ok never mind).We ordered cocktails, they were pricey and very very small (I am talking here about 50/70ml) - well sometimes that is expected from high end places (however never experienced that even in 3 Michelin star restaurants, shard sky bar etc, never mind let’s continue). But then we ordered oysters and we actually understood that place is just very bad. Oysters in this Sky bar was one of worst experiences. Oysters were brought by somebody from the kitchen to our table (looked like chef but hard to say for sure). I did asked is it possible to order something from the restaurant and got a reply “you should plan better next time if you want to eat, you are in the bar”. (Seriously ? I never had such a reply from staff, he could have said “no, sorry”). Well back to Oysters, oysters are priced 4 euros per peace, you expect GILLARDEAU oysters or at least in the same level, NO they use the cheapest gigantic oysters during months without “R”, when they mate ! It was the milkiest most discussing oysters I ever tried. That is not it, it came with Mayo and huge shell peace’s inside (picture attached), no vinegar or lemon juice!!! which is essential. We went to another restaurant in the city to kill horrible aftertaste of oysters in our mouth and have decent size drinks. Basically place is just hugely overpriced and very very very very very BAD. Nobody from our group is coming there ever again.

You book a table at the Skybar to enjoy the sun and the views. We were shoveled into some obscure table, completely shaded, next to some plastic covers. I’m happy to pay premium if I get the views and the sun, but today my disappointment was just immeasurable! As usual, the cocktails and food were good.

Major disappointment. Made reservations a week before. When we arrived,we were parked somewhere at the back side of the building, no panoramic view over the city or sun. I do not mind paying 18 euro for a drink, but I do expect than to have the experience that’s goes along with it. At least tell me on forehand that you gonna park me at the back of the bus. Should score 0 stars, but the drinks were good, so one star it is. All and all a nice place, if they give you a proper seat.

Superb restaurant with a fantastic view on the city centre. Our experience started with a warm and super professional reception. The restaurant vibe is very stylish and most tables have a direct view on the city skyline. Lotte, the sommelier, is one of the best we ever had: charming, professional and very knowledgeable and experienced on wine (evidently). The menu is worth every penny: fantastic flavours, wonderfull presentation, attention to detail and a cook with an absolute passion for his profession (and a very friendly guy) with clearly a great kitchen team.The courses followed on a very good pace and the service was excellent during the entire experience. An absolute ‘must do’. We’ll come again soon.
