De Keizerskroon in Wijk 1 Binnenstad

Cozy, authentic restaurant, friendly service, delicious food and good drinks. Top-notch!

We had a fantastic evening; we let the chef surprise us with a delicious 4-course menu. A super nice team too!

Four-course / surprise menu - Salmon tartare was tasty / good - Truffle risotto was tasty / but too little truffle - Al Barolo was mediocre, very dry, very fatty - Bavarois was good but not spectacular Wine pairing was mediocre

Always good service, prompt service, and delicious food! Come back regularly!

The food is pricey, but delicious. The service was perfect. Friendly, fast, and still time for a laugh.

We had a delicious meal on the terrace. Sardinia in Deventer.

Nice afternoon, relaxed atmosphere, and good food.

Reception, service, attention, quality of the dishes, and passion – a solid 10! Just as you wish. Thank you!

One of the best Italian dishes we have had in the Netherlands!

We had an incredibly delicious meal. Atmospheric and friendly. The wines were delicious too! Highly recommended!!

We had a delicious meal, a great time with friends, and our wishes were listened to very well. Top-notch restaurant. Definitely don't forget the duck with foie gras ;-)

We had a wonderful meal last night! We chose the 4-course surprise menu and everything was equally delicious! The service was very friendly and attentive to empty glasses and plates. With every dish, it was clearly explained what it was. We received a limoncello on the house after the meal. Definitely worth repeating!

Super nice service, very attentive, fast, and good. Very cozy atmosphere and the food is really good. No downsides to be found ;)

We had a delicious meal in a traditional atmosphere. I love it.

Delicious three-course surprise menu. Exceptionally friendly service. Sardinia in Deventer!

Delicious food, atmospheric restaurant, and impeccable service. Extensive knowledge of wines, food, and their own vineyard in Sardinia.

Had a delicious meal, nice relaxed atmosphere. Good service.

Very atmospheric restaurant with delicious dishes on the menu. The service is very good and you also receive an explanation of the dishes. The cooking and working are done with great passion. You can enjoy a nice, quiet meal there, and the seating is not cramped. Definitely one of the better restaurants in Deventer. We will definitely come back again.

Had another fantastic meal! See you again soon!

Round tables also create an optimal atmosphere.

The six of us really had a fantastic evening at De Keizerskroon! What a beautiful restaurant. Lovely ambiance, delicious classic Italian food, a lively atmosphere, top wines, and super attentive and fun service. We truly enjoyed ourselves. The food was sooooo good! The delicious wines from their own vineyard in Sardinia made it complete. Expert and enthusiastic advice. Cozy round tables. Highly recommended. We will definitely be back!

Had a delicious meal! Super fresh! The atmosphere is excellent! A solid 10!

Excellent Italian cuisine, excellent service, and friendly staff. Their own vineyard in Sardinia produces excellent wine.

We've had several delicious meals at De Keizerskroon. And the service is always excellent. The staff are expert, professional, and very attentive, truly making you feel like you're having a night out. The wine list is excellent, with plenty of choices. The menu doesn't change often, but in addition to the regular menu, you can also try a changing "daily dish" or the chef's surprise menu. We've already tried many of the dishes on the menu, and they've always been delicious; we've never been disappointed. We'll definitely be back!

Aside from the small amount and the high price, it was good. We found the Irish coffee at 13.50 very expensive, and the risotto was also very small. Otherwise, it was good. But I'd rather go somewhere else next time.

The food was divine, the service was efficient and with a broad smile, and despite being packed, the place kept things moving smoothly. World-class food and business!

We had a wonderful Valentine's evening together. Surprisingly delicious dishes and, above all, excellent service. We had a fantastic evening 🤍

Italian inspired cuisine, very tasty, authentic ambiance, excellent service and the best house wine ever tasted😀

A truly top-notch restaurant, with a great atmosphere, fantastic food, and delicious wines. Thanks!

Had a wonderful evening at Keizerskroon A 10+

The appollo arrosto with corn-fed chicken was delicious, tender and full of flavor. Highly recommended. Very friendly staff and great service!

The Keizerskroon is a warm welcome from the welcome and service to the departure. Delicious food. Very tasty. And the ambiance is fantastic.

We had a delicious 5-course dinner with wonderful wines. The staff was super friendly! We will definitely be back!

The four of us dined in this beautiful ambiance. Delicious dishes and super friendly service. The truffle risotto was a real surprise.

Fantastic ambiance on Boxing Day. Unfortunately, several things went wrong. We were the first in the restaurant. People who arrived later received their dinner earlier. We were there at 5:30 PM and agreed that the taxi would be back at 8:30 PM. We had 7 courses; unfortunately, the pasta dish was lukewarm (we reported this). After that, they forgot the sorbet dish, and we waited a very long time for our main course. Our main course was taken away so we could still enjoy the sorbet. The food was delicious, but all in all, it was a disappointment. We couldn't finish our dessert completely because the taxi was waiting at 8:30 PM.

We enjoyed the Christmas menu tonight. What a treat! The wine pairing perfectly complemented the various delicious dishes. The restaurant's decor is fantastic, and the staff has a tremendous passion for their culinary craft, and it really shines through.

One of our favorite restaurants in Deventer. The staff is very friendly, and the food is always fresh and delicious. And one of the best restaurants in Deventer.

Craftsmanship!! A full house and yet everything under control, we love it!!

A beautiful, historic, and atmospheric location with a Christmas atmosphere, accompanied by professional and hospitable service. Delicious food and matching wines made the evening a complete night out in Deventer. A perfect combination.

Delicious food, cozy atmosphere and a beautiful interior.

Great hospitality here and delicious food. A wonderful Christmas atmosphere too!

A very disappointing experience due to disrespectful service. What should have been a pleasant evening unfortunately ended in frustration due to the extremely poor service. From the moment we walked in, we were barely noticed. We had to ask for everything ourselves: the menu, drinks, order taking, and even the bill. Nothing went smoothly. The staff seemed disinterested and at times downright disrespectful. Answers were curt, eye contact was lacking, and questions were met with irritation. They should really take a page from the book at Happy Tosti, where hospitality, friendliness, and equal attention to everyone are a given. During the meal, there was also a complete lack of attention: empty glasses were left standing endlessly, orders were forgotten, and no apologies were forthcoming. Moreover, the cappuccino served was anything but a cappuccino—no foam, lukewarm, and tasteless. The pasta vongole was also a huge disappointment: it turned out to be just a simple pasta aglio, olio e peperoncino, with some cockles thrown on top at the end. That has little to do with a real vongole. At the end of the evening, it became even more painfully clear how unfairly we were treated: coats were dutifully collected for other guests, while we were left to look for our own. As if that wasn't enough, everyone received a small gift to take home—except us. In short: the food couldn't compensate for the bad experience. Service should be an essential part of a restaurant visit, and that was completely lacking here. We wouldn't go back again.

A good restaurant. It's festively decorated for Christmas, with a lovely ambiance and a more classic feel. Good acoustics too, and the food is prepared with great care and attention. One downside, in my opinion, is the foie gras on the menu. In terms of animal welfare, that's really outdated.

We enjoyed a delicious three-course à la carte dinner with a wonderful red wine from their own vineyard, complemented by a beautiful glass of Arsala wine with the cheese platter. Hats off!

Beautifully decorated for Christmas, and what a wonderful evening we had. The atmosphere was warm and cozy, every detail was perfect. A truly enjoyable place, especially at this time of year.

Out of Category, this is a must see

As the stars indicate, it was excellent. However, three male guests were quite noisy. It was fun, but the staff should have curbed their enthusiasm a bit. It took us a bit more effort (and we're not deaf) to make ourselves heard at a normal volume. Other than that, it was definitely worth repeating.

Very cozy restaurant and delicious food

Always a pleasure to eat and drink here! The wines are excellent and the staff is top-notch.

Once again we had a wonderful dinner at the Keizerskroon, the service was, as always, of a high standard.

We had a delicious meal here. The staff was super friendly and genuinely engaged; you immediately felt welcome. The Italian decor creates a cozy atmosphere and completes the picture. Definitely recommended for anyone who appreciates good food and hospitality!

The food was incredibly delicious, the service was also great!

The restaurant was quite busy, but we were given a quieter table, as I'd requested when I made my reservation. There were four of us and we each had three courses. Everything was excellent in terms of taste and presentation. My lobster bisque was particularly delicious. We'll definitely be back!

This is real Italian food!!! With wine from the owner's vineyard ♡

Risotto with fresh truffle... the best I've ever had. The service was quick and very friendly, and knowledgeable.

We ate here on the recommendation of the B&B owner of De Worp. He said the food was delicious and the staff were very friendly. And it was absolutely right! The food was excellent! Highly recommended. Such a beautiful historic building!

Delicious food, a real evening out, beautiful ambiance, very friendly and knowledgeable staff

A delicious dinner in a lovely atmosphere ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We dined here early on a Sunday evening and were very pleased with the entire experience. We chose fish: we started with tuna tartare, followed by a sea bass fillet and the catch of the day—in this case, a salmon fillet. Everything was very tasty and beautifully presented. For dessert, a chocolate trio (brownie, mousse, and ice cream) made a truly delicious ending. The atmosphere is pleasant and peaceful, with beautiful decor. The tables are a good distance apart, giving you plenty of privacy and allowing you to chat without overhearing others—something I personally appreciate. Of course, it gets a bit more lively when the restaurant is full, but that's part of the experience and doesn't detract from the cozy atmosphere. The service was friendly and professional, and everything was served at a good pace. The wine was also delicious and perfectly matched to the dishes. The price-quality ratio is excellent. You pay a bit more, but you get genuine quality, tranquility, and attention in return. Definitely a restaurant to return to.

Fantastic restaurant with a truly unique atmosphere. The cuisine is truly top-notch!

Fantastic hospitality, delicious dishes, and wonderful wines. Highly recommended!

Very friendly, and the food was very good.

This is a restaurant where they really go out of their way to make you feel welcome! A gem in Deventer. A beautiful, atmospheric restaurant, delicious (Italian) dishes, and fine wines. The service is worth more than 5 stars.

We go to De Keizerskroon about once or twice a month for a delicious dinner. The food is always good, the wine list is excellent, and the staff certainly knows what they're serving, which is often different at other restaurants.

We don't come to Deventer much, but when we do, we never feel the need to look for a "new" restaurant. We always have a delicious meal at this classic Italian restaurant. You could wake me up at night for the Fois Gras, which they serve here in a classic, no-nonsense way. Delicious. It's often busy here, but that's a good sign. And it's also a really cozy restaurant. Sometimes we go to Deventer, but always to this Kroon.

Through tasters, we were seated at the front of the bar with a view of the TV screen and the dishes. A shame, because the restaurant is actually very beautiful and not too noisy. The risotto was delicious, but the accompanying wine was anything but perfect. …a missed opportunity. I won't be back, such a shame.

I can't think of anything I didn't thoroughly enjoy. What delicious food, incredibly friendly service (the guys know what they're talking about), and a fantastic atmosphere! And the wine from their own vineyard! Amazing 👌 It wasn't my first time at Keizerskroon, and it certainly won't be my last 🤩

My wife and I had a delicious meal. The tournedos was incredibly well-prepared. So tender and cooked exactly how we wanted it. Highly recommended!

Even welcomed by my first name when I registered with my last name for the reserved table!

As always, I had a wonderful time at De Keizerskroon. The staff is always super friendly and helpful when you ask for suggestions. I always enjoy coming here.

Very Nice atmosphere , relaxed. Very good listening by the waitress. The owner Mario came to dit to our tabel for a Nice confersation. Very pleasant evening!

Beautiful accommodations and attentive service create a wonderful atmosphere. The staff is knowledgeable about wine and offers excellent advice on choosing the right wines. The food received a lot of attention, and the flavors are well-balanced. Highly recommended.

We had a wonderful evening with excellent service! The 5-course surprise menu with matching wines is highly recommended!

Delicious food, good menu, nice atmosphere, and friendly staff. Definitely worth a return visit.

Great restaurant! Delicious food and incredibly friendly service.

The service is incredibly friendly and cheerful. The food is delicious, and the prices are quite reasonable.

It's a real treat for us to dine here! An Italian (Sardinian) restaurant where the cuisine is top-notch. Many wines are sourced from their own vineyard in Sardinia. Last time, we had a 5-course surprise menu with a wine pairing. In good weather, there's a lovely, atmospheric terrace. The service is very friendly and helpful... they even asked us if the music was too loud or if we found the open door too cold. The wines and dishes were all explained in detail, and they took their time. It wasn't rushed. The owner (who works incredibly hard) even pointed out that our first and second courses were served a bit too quickly one after the other. Attention to detail is paramount! We'd love to come back! So we had a 5-course meal. A full wine pairing. A half-wine pairing. And we paid €200, including tip. You can eat cheaper there, but that's your choice. Highly recommended!

Delicious food and excellent service! Good advice on the wines, which were also delicious.

What a beautiful atmosphere! From the welcome to the end, we wanted for nothing. Friendly, knowledgeable service, delicious wines, and wonderful food. I thoroughly enjoyed it. A perfect start to a weekend in Deventer.

Between courts a bit too long waiting time

On July 25th, five of us had a wonderful meal on the terrace at De Keizerskroon, under the large plane trees. We had a surprise menu with a wine pairing. Not cheap, but it was worth the lovely evening. The friendly service really spoiled us. Delicious food and good wine. We had to catch the ferry before 11:00 PM, but we couldn't leave without a delicious Limonchello on the house :-D Thanks for the lovely evening!!

A truly top-notch restaurant. Everything is perfect. The service, the food, what an experience! 10/10 You MUST eat here.

The food was truly excellent! Classic dishes. Fresh ingredients. Friendly and knowledgeable service. And in a classic atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Hospitable... top-notch service! Thinking along with the guests... A big THANK YOU! #TasteExplorers

Delicious food, well-trained staff, and excellent service. We requested a quiet table, which was no problem; they were happy to walk the extra mile for the waiters. If the cutlery on the table had been the right size (I had two large cutlery sets), it would definitely have earned a five-star rating.

Third visit to this one of our favorites. Amazing in a word. A true gift every time.

Great welcome, and the atmosphere was fantastic 😃☀️

Friendly and professional, good cuisine, hospitable

Delicious food in a cozy place! Friendly service with knowledge of the business. For those who love Italian cuisine, this is really recommended!

We deden een verkennings tocht door Deventer met de smaakverkenners. Dit was overigens top!!!! Zo deden we een bezoek aan de Keizerskroon. Had hoge verwachting, maar bediening was niet erg attent, eten ( risotto) vond ik beetje smaken naar rijstepap met truffel. Spaghetti aioli was goed. Wijn glazen echt weinig gevuld en moest 13.50 betalen voor 2 glaasjes. Had ik misschien moeten melden!

Had dinner at this Italian restaurant last night and I’m still enjoying it. The service was really exceptional – so friendly, attentive and professional, it almost felt unreal. Like sitting down with family, but with perfect timing and without being pushy. The food? Delicious. Fresh, full of flavour, and perfectly prepared. From the antipasti to the dessert, everything was just right. You can really taste that the food is cooked here with love and craftsmanship. The atmosphere was also great: warm, cosy and typically Italian, without it feeling forced. Ideal for a relaxing evening out. As far as I’m concerned, the best Italian restaurant in the region. I will definitely come back here again – highly recommended!

The food was delicious. I would go back. Service was a bit awkward: first the wine bottle, then the glasses, first the pepper, then the salt...

Fantastic evening at De Keizerkroon in Deventer! What a great experience! We had a wonderful evening at De Keizerkroon. From the moment we entered, we felt welcome. The staff is incredibly friendly and professional – hospitality at its best. The food was truly excellent. You can taste that the food is cooked with love and attention. Beautiful presentation, pure flavours and a pleasant atmosphere in the restaurant make it complete. An absolute must if you are in Deventer and fancy an evening out where everything is just right. We will definitely be back!

Had a wonderful evening, you really feel like you are in Italy, the food, the hosts/hostess, the interior of the restaurant, a real evening out! Recommended!

Ordered Gamberoni with lobster sauce. Delicious stewed vegetables, prawns in an excellent matching lobster sauce. The potatoes prepared in chicken stock, deglazed with butter…. Top dish. The dessert was also delicious in addition to the external appearance. In addition, a nice, smooth and neat service. The menu has Italian accents (the chef comes from Sardinia) and is clear and well-arranged with more than enough choice of dishes. Thank you for the wonderful evening.

An unexpected gem! Nice crew, tasty dishes. The chosen Gamberi in Crayfish sauce is repeatable. Very tender Brasato. We will gladly come back!

Great tasty food! And friendly service.

Really delicious food! We opted for the 4 course surprise menu and it was really delicious, super nice service and super beautiful inside. Highly recommended!

Delicious food at Keizerskroon. Possibly the tastiest risotto I've ever had. We enjoyed the delicious food and the lovely hostess. Sweet lady with a lot of humor.

I have eaten here many times, it is always great! Always received super hospitably, food is delicious every time and wines are fantastic, the stately building makes the experience complete! Here they know what an evening of dining should be like!

The name Keizerskroon makes one fear that it is a village café, but it is a great Sardinian restaurant. Be sure to try the wine from our own Italian vineyard. Hats off to the service.
